The Intro 00:57
2.
Epic 02:27
When I’m cruising I’m rushing no booze on my tongue When I’m losing my cool like a bruiser in London The rules are confusing so let loose the juices And try not to act like they tighten up the noose These fools are abused like a problem step child Ruling the coup with some modest exile I’m lost in the cube with the softest textiles A comfy padded room where I’m walking my best miles So wipe the smirk off your face when you’re serving Em up with a platter of bait behind the curtain Uplift the curse it's absurd to swerve it Letting these nerds know the wait was worth it I’m perking up while I stir in some bullshit This ain’t my first rodeo surrounded by humans Opinionated merchants trying to steal your worth its Getting on my nerves so let’s make em feel nervous I go tit for tat when I’m spitting this rap shit Getting sick with it like i’m kissing bats it’s Spreading sickness like a fucking pandemic Gun to my head like write the damn epic My mood is exhumed from the darkest mistakes Sitting down in hell cooking up these mix tapes Living through nightmares and dreamscapes it takes More patience than a hospital police state So lock it down locked and loaded like they come for your guns Fuck no we won’t be getting onto the bus quietly Sit back and watch the riot beat While the cops get filmed pirating all your privacy Sign on the dotted line and waive your rights Then wave goodbye and pay no mind Gotta wash the brain and erase the time Now shut the fuck up while we wait in line

Thinker Do 02:38
Sneaking through back alleys on a little cosplay Broadway all day looking like the wrong way Resuscitating major players in the waiting room Sifting through the paperwork while i be debating fools Breaking rules breaking bad like we always wait for doom Slayed a few in my early years off an 8th of shrooms Sitting in the dark waiting for the daily news To let us know what we should believe as the latest truth Stay aloof writing rhymes in the studio Trying to keep it well lit like filming a movie role Sorting through support from your endorsements Of course we’re tripping balls handing reports in The latest proof ain’t no way to move change the view Just a bunch of peckerheads living in a chicken coup Picking at their dinner finger licking like the plate is good So kick it for a minute then show me what that thinker do 2 plus 2 show me what that thinker do Big thinking energy always gets the best of me When I kick it in the lab messing with new recipes Gotta mix and match flip the latch letting 12hythm scratch Dope shit spitting facts with my vision smashed Big drip aristocrats dishing out a list of trash Missing wisdom this fish is to big to catch Better let the misses know where you hid the stash And watch your next step bro before you hit the traps Walking on eggshells tripping over landmines And I’m about done dealing with these damn lies Man I’m looking at this planet like a franchise Chastised into digging holes in the back nine The latest proof ain’t no way to move change the view Just a bunch of peckerheads living in a chicken coup Picking at their dinner finger licking like the plate is good So kick it for a minute then show me what that thinker do 2 plus 2 show me what thinker do

Put your hands up like you got a couple questions Ain’t no misdirection just a bunch of flexing All aggressive insane from all directions Smoke rolls in when I start a session Blank canvas blaze up the handlers Rocking back and forth like I got the van stuck Don’t grind the clutch, mind your hush Put your mask on and don’t touch the antlers Feeling untouchable when I’m on the verse But in the universe I’m just writing some words Enticing these nerds while i’m laying out my memoirs Like remember when I had to fight the centaur I’m a book nerd, let me take you on the journey Lost in the labyrinth searching for the lost fern For certain got the taxes included Acting like a writer never felt secluded Try to get into the shit and line em up Just another fixed game of try my luck Oh lighten up dog it could always be worse Unless you're in the back of a hearse Then you’re dead, or putting in new speakers It’s a toss up, driver? or just tweakers? Don’t stress yo I’ve done the research Living life like a bunch of fucking lemurs It’s a remake off the cutting floor we take A little bit of poison and put it in the cheesecake Tastes great less filling Less stress more killing As he blew the cornerstone out the building And the blocks came tumbling down all humble Feels like we’re drowning in a little puddle Rebuttal? I should be taking off in the shuttle Getting high in space with the Hubble

Get Brains 02:45
One blink and I’m soaring wings spread in the morning The rest of y'all snoring, no life left and boring I like that I’m moving I gotta keep moving I’ll never stop moving like planets I’m cruising Cuz once you stop moving it’s hard to start moving And then just like that you forgot what you’re doing Forgot how to groove dropped all the clues Forgot how your life was never not the blues Forgot how damn good it felt to be abused At least someone kept you around for amusement He never did figure out quite how to use it Facepalm trigger happy silly confused kids This episodic memory ain't what it used to be That’s the main reason people try fooling me So go commit treason and set all the schools free That’s the breaks when everyone’s ruling cheap Push button doc’s pushing pill poppers I got this arthritis from popping and locking I mean dropping an oxy and bonking my noggin It’s hard to hit a vein when your skin won’t stop crawling He’s hot then cold this ain’t rock and roll This ain't even human alright who brought the troll That’s a weird move when nothing else matters And metallica broke up so you can’t even tattle Slept and slept until he got slept on You know that’s no career for a scoundrel He crept and crept until he got crept on At the end of the story that’s how they found you So tell me which side of the fence do you play on Trying to climb above it to keep this whole game strong How do you do it? like Nate Dogg said yo I’m just trying to smoke weed all day long How else can one be expected to tolerate With psy-ops distracting us from problem traits On the outside it all looks great Till the cracks crack and that drops the gate We’ll sit here and wait for all that you’ve built To topple down around you then we’ll build on the silt We’ll fix all the silly little things greed has broken It’s almost that time when the beast has awoken... Get Brains!

Sucker Punch 01:49
We used to live in caves fire screaming in place Now we sit on the couch with a screen in our face Nose in the Facebook, snorting up the gram Checking status updates as fast as we can We never had a plan when we built this shit Sever the demand then kill this niche Like a candle burning from both ends Fizzle out around 25 and see what happens then Minimum wage college ain't getting paid Unless mom and daddy had celebrity names And a bunch of fake fame makes cheap mistakes Who cares it's only death and taxes at stake The trick is to die before the shit gets paid off Make the banks bankrupt for a change thank us Which one of the voices in your head do you listen to I’ve got it narrowed down to like two What goes around comes around then it goes back again When we plant trees life keeps happening All the paper we’re stacking up living our best life Lets future generations have enough ass wipe Sure it sounds petty but the planet’s getting sweaty We’re all hot and bothered chopping trees for confetti I don’t see us lasting much longer unless we Start arresting the assholes in charge yes we can But why don’t we Because we got comfy Fell in love with bombing other countries Got hooked on the low price lunch meat Cost of living on the rise fuck it that’s something I’ve got a hunch government sucker punch Such a bitch move gotta get em under us And remember who works for who here Jerks serving jerks until we go nuclear

Billion 02:50
When we blow through the dust volcanoes erupt No one ever guessed that the game would be tough Keep it hands off when the play is a bust Plain old unjust so we keep it on the one Blast off on the two help me see the three Third eye open wide checking out the scene Laser beam focus star scream jokers Living off the fat of the people they approached Tell me what happens when the land fights back With the cliffs at our backs make the last stand matter No one ever planned for the famine on deck We was walking all erect with the dead man's swagger Sitting in a little den envisioning the middle men Listen to the fiddle man play a little diddy then Talk about how all the leaders seem reptilian Lost in the maze trying to make the next b b b billion No one gave a shit till the drugs all dried up Everybody died from a bad batch of Lysol But it didn’t matter we was all hyped up When the pedal hit the metal he just didn’t have the right skill Watched in the day time till the night curfew Rats in a cage till they make time to merk you Got a little job that falls under my purview We gotta get this mob away from the bird’s view Gotta find cover, wipe off the bird poop Write off the work while you try on the worst juice Blinded by perps who try to reverse truth Sly like fox news just trying to lie to you Eating up the slop like a bunch of hungry vagrants I can’t way for the day they lock us up in stasis Mock up a basement c call me resilient Waiting for the internet to make me a b b b billion

The Rhythm 00:41

NPP 02:12
Check both belts yo we’re locked and loaded Coming through to test yall works of old its Like the motherfucking past ain’t relevant Selling these cats on the same old developments Folks packed in to the housing projects Never even know what it’s like to prosper Fuck that y’all i thought this was america Marinating in the raw bold is our character The fight that’s ahead shit it won’t be easy It’s like the NPP got people greedy That's the narrative of perpetual progression It’s civilizations darkest lesson Don’t take it from me, look the fuck around And know what to look for before it goes down And know what you’re good for when they come to your town Cross that threshold and get drugged the fuck out You better farm your land or it’ll get farmed for you Big pharma farming hemp the greed’s loyal It’s all in these documents I bring forward The nobles are obviously in league with big oil When we release the lease on these resources We’ll need of course a brief case and three sorcerers Complete with greek sources And people to pull the trigger when I give these orders Struggling a while with these disorders Chaotic neutral but still wishing he was in orbit Stonks only go up when did this shit become do or die Viva elon musk would be my battle cry I mean somebody’s gotta lead the autists Into battle when we finally defeat the bosses Level up shit shift the wealth And make sure to keep a little bit for yourself
10.
Teamwork 02:31
Sipping on a little bit of sin I been given Try to keep it written down so it feels like i been living I been realizing a minute reality ain’t got limits Going out of my fucking mind testing out the physics Stretching out the distance for instance Let me be specific the risk is hedge funding the business Betting on the difference ingesting all the research Sleeping through the rebirth sliding out feet first Sleep tight little dreamer Early to bed early to rise with a rugged ass demeanor Taking beats to the cleaners you know I love my t shirts And the people who support my little dream here Transparent cows I gotta steer clear 2020 going down as one fucking weird year Take a sec and look around the psy-ops is winning Set the table, we just biopsied dinner They got a tracker in the phone tracking everywhere we go And it’s fine if i don’t know I already sold my soul Getting ready rock and roll tip the first domino Feeling abominable with these avalanche flows Stop and rest on the road gotta get where I’m going And the rest of y'all know that we hit the ground soaring I’ll be coming for the fuckers that be summoning the trouble Running on the double while I’m handing out the W’s Putting wins on the board every fucking day They love me on the team because I know my fucking place Better get in where you fit I’m delivering the meaning I inherited the demons always sneaky never seen them If i’m breathing I’m reading I’m not even being conceited I need to see for myself if you think that I’m believing It’s the season of reason y’all be seizing the research I’m receiving the meaning that shit is called teamwork
11.
Walking through town like we the kings of this shit More like the court jester got people feeling a grin I’m eager to equally fit in and not fit in at all Selling technological dope out the bathroom stall Gotta line a mile long cutting up a rug People need cheeseburgers and drugs And enough screen time to start feeling a buzz Moths to the flame and I don’t mean bugs If your online then your a user All these apps are addictive and your abusing We giving these companies so much information Then we wonder why life sucks and we’re complacent In the destruction of infinite juxta Positioning with indifferent decisions it must of Gone better in another timeline And tits up in this one, now it’s time to log off bye bye (Excerpt from Simon Sinek's Addiction to Technology is Ruining Lives) Jumping back in with a quick one two And if you say fuck me I’m gonna say fuck I love you On some turn the other cheek shit up shits creek shit Turn the sentry into a sensei then teach it Smoking the sensi scenic More densely populated areas, I’ve seen em Not a fan like being found and Amelia Clean fingers and bulimia now throw it up Trying to grow up in the best timeline And let the light shine for a couple lifetimes Hoping these aliens can toss me a lifeline Before ice gets em and makes em all go bye bye Remember when timeline jumping It’s wise to keep your mind on something You never know how you gonna react Try to hold on and bring yourself back when you snap (Excerpt from Ben Halpert's Technology Addiction and What you Can do About It)
12.
Old Man Shit 02:23
When I’m ripping and rapping I ain’t picking the bastards Who be tricking the masses into getting they asses kicked Feels like I been getting my masters Fuck a pump and dump I like the income that’s passive Raise up the bar before I fly right passed it I’ll be writing rhymes till they put me in a casket Old man shit put the lotion on it’s skin Then put that shit back in the damn basket Like buffalo bill the way I’m ruffling feathers Snuffing out debt cut the heads off collectors Keep a couple heads in a jar as keepsakes Then take the rest and turn them into free bait Upgrade the feeling supply the freebase Looking all professional, tools in the briefcase Running on empty from gassing up my teammates First one down let me know how that sleep tastes I’ll be wrecking precautions directing impossible Defending the plausible from ending demonstrable The mission isn't even worried about the clearance Running interference until our enemies fear us We’re only one disappearance away from a bad day Everybody trying to save face on the last date Feeling fancy about to pull out the Massee Drop the 8 ball in passing, that’s so passé I’m getting nasty you cannot put it passed me A mix between blasphemy and tuck everlasting Feeling like a masterpiece, looking like a tragedy Trying to get through another day full of savagery Getting headstrong from working in the mess hall All hands on deck waiting for our next haul I need the rest got big plans to eject So feed the grass and keep off the Kleenex

Don’t get it twisted the scope of this dopeness is infinite You could only hope to make Europa before hitting quit Ladies and gentlemen clones made with eloquence Welcome to your new digs Drop the bomb kids get under chairs While we getting the nuclear fallout clear It’s all out here kick the window out and crawl out there Underneath the stairs just don’t breath in the air Gotta find another planet we can live on And get life back to normal in the valley like silicon No back alley trash clogging up the streets No streets bogging down our new elite Tie a string around your finger so you don’t forget When humanity breaks down like elements The only resolution is we’re all doomed kids With the tools we’ve created to choose it SO don’t get it twisted the scope of this dopeness is infinite You could only hope to make europa before hittin quit Ladies and gentlemen clones made with eloquence Welcome to your new digs (Sick scratch break....) Don’t get it twisted the scope of this dopeness is infinite You could only hope to make Europa before hitting quit Ladies and gentlemen clones made with eloquence Welcome to your new digs But if it’s still inhabited we’ll defend this planet And back hand slap aliens like tennis rackets It’s zero love there’s no hero above Just a bunch of residual radiation in our blood What the fuck is that in the sky it’s invaders Coming to our little blue dot to claim her As soon as they get here the greys hit paydirt Time to leave now it’s too late to save her The sky rains fire and destruction Dire times when you're fighting lies and corruption No computer malfunction that was us kid So put down your weapons and come stand with us when There’s no fuckin way we’ll duck and wave while you suck our brains On a summer day run away and make the bunker rain Some suckers stayed they prayed for another way Some will say holy fucking shit they’re coming our way So don’t get it twisted the scope of this dopeness is infinite You could only hope to make Europa before hitting quit Ladies and gentlemen clones made with eloquence Welcome to your new digs (Another Sick Scratch break....) That’s just another day in the arcade Playing space invaders servin bars like a bar maid Arcane parlez to this large prey When the predator is on the hunt looking to mark shade Got the ray gun charged ready to get your heart slain No reset button is pain when in the wrong game Its all shame on the aliens running our planet Did you really go intergalactic just to scavenge it? Tie a string around your finger so you don’t forget When humanity breaks down like elements The only resolution is we’re all doomed kids With the tools we’ve created to choose it SO don’t get it twisted the scope of this dopeness is infinite You could only hope to make europa before hittin quit Ladies and gentlemen clones made with eloquence Welcome to your new digs

(3 Stacks) Giant with the rhymes and I play with the beats, plus I'm feeling extra mighty after puffin the green I'll give em something to see: A full moon Sellin wolf tickets to me, I'm no fool But Lemme get a seat at the table, it's too true I been hungry as can be with 2 spoons! (hahaha) MY CITY DON'T WANT ME HERE. (nope) THERE'S REASONS THEY DON'T LIKE ME CUZ I BEEN HAD SKILL AND THAT IS CLEAR (It's T-A-I yeah D-Y-E!!) LET ME BOMB THIS, I'M FEELING SO ATOMIC! (UGH) GOT THE CHRONIC SO YOU KNOW WHAT I'M ON! (IT'S UP) WEED IS HARMLESS, GOT ICE UP IN MY BONG, SO THAT MEAN I'M ALWAYS FROSTY, LIKE SUB ZERO, I'M STUCK... Mat lee and tai dye smoking on that good weed Rolling up joint after joint in my hood scene It’s a good thing I live where I can keep smoking We don’t give a fuck about weed here in Oregon I’m rapping from the home of legalized drug use One gram two gram sipping on that bug juice Waiting on a never ending story from the plug Texting like 911 I need a hug Like Nate Dogg said I’m smoking weed every day And i ain’t the type to buy drugs and never pay Delivering like Ritalin some medicine is slithering Hypno-psycho typical and the rest of it is hit or miss Uppers and downers i like it in the middle yo I’m fitted for the mission no matter where we finna go I’m driven like a purist like it pure as the driven snow Tripping on the cure just to let the people know
15.
People always say there’s more than one way to create flow Jump off a cliff or swim with the mako Sharks always take advantage of the first buck they take so I’m giving rap away for free to make a change yo Dropping ultimatums like tossing these old tomatoes At a hot and cold angry late show take home wait though You have no idea the shit you're messing with fate bro Red eyed monster, when I’m testing concentrate dose Then it's bombs away for, silly little fake shows Wanna dare me to sit and contemplate those Systems that try to light the way towards a more Enlightened way to live a life we never have to pay for Quantum tunneling underground where I hide my assets I get trapped inside full metal flak jackets Scanning red laser that’s you it’s tracking Everybody tries to get a ride on this dragon Cancerous votes getting cast and shit nope Cast away later alligator swimming in this moat Skipping stoned tripping slow the misty breeze gets me going Windy blown my drifting home across the iffy globe Storm front moving in across my weathered face Stashed in a box labeled Pandora's magic taste Addicts brace for a little hint of Mat’s tragic state Deep breaths don’t panic wait Now's the time to panic god dammit i mean it we really had it No more captured than the water inside the Atlantic I mean we’re manic hands down the captain has vanished No trace of a familiar face or any more romantics
16.
When i wake up my only drive is to hit the mix Me and my crew repping like a bunch of dissidents Listen kids everybody always wanna try and flex But when you call the plug why’s it always disconnected Politicians on the twitter sending dick pics President Camacho's in the oval office No amount of drugs I could ever take could fix this Trust me I’ve tried, now I’ve got these hot sweats Brains all rotten from the blow and Oxycontin Kicking like a Rockette till there’s Roxies in our pocket Powerless to stop it when there’s pills on every corner Get the doctor on the horn and tell him bring all he’s got left Hats off to all this manic manipulation I’m just trying to satiate an addicts generation Sitting in the attic crushing crypto like it’s magic powder Tell me how you feel once it goes down though Sitting in the dark looking like an accomplice Chilling in a hoodie never thought about a bomb threat Silly Woody Woodpecker peasants rally often Banging heads against the wall like this wood is rather solid The only thing that change is the date And the rate we’re able to fire little lead bullets at your face Left for dead try to strafe babysitters find a way Late at night lie awake while I await the crying game That’s not how it works so we’re just basic bitches Sitting in the pound waiting for another makeshift Looking all confused like i think we got our dates switched It’s no wonder mom and daddy they always felt the hatred Viral outreach to anyone it can infect Gotta wear a rubber just to go out on the internet Smiles for the files when the malware converges At the prairie’s little house with the fatal power surge Last fam standing They’re all so demanding Lunar landing, wait we’re living on a sphere? I’m getting to the point where I can’t fucking stand it So I’m finna build a spaceship and get the fuck up out of here
17.
The Mayans 02:58
I’m running out the gate rapping step up to the plate Represent the base when I’m rapping out my fate Used to play ball, now I’m sitting on the bench like a mitt Like to play dumb so you can’t tell me shit Never gonna get me like a raise in your fifties And if we go drifting you better whip it swiftly I’m on empty Feeling peppy enough to do a fucking barrel roll Running out of air like this planet isn’t terraformed Looking terrible like you need a breath Getting cancer from these wearables feeling kinda blessed Tracking everywhere we go error bars low Here we are so, I guess we the put terror in the art show I’m not a leader but I’ll lead if you mislead her All the creature comforts certified up in this teacher Feeling like a tenure isn’t even needed taking all that hunger trying to feed it Learning how to love life before we get deleted If you think you’re coming at me first you’re gonna get it last Nevermind the mass times velocity divided by the past Can’t fight the facts rhyming fast lighting round in fact A little backhand should straighten up these little rats You better pay attention to the dude that’s spitting facts Everybody likes to rap about how they got no attachments Straight abandoned in the back of some shitty shack Learned how to eat from watching dogs fight over trash If you think I’m crass, brash or being a little ass I’m feeling a little bashful about bringing the illest back It’s like the virus brought the violence from the lowest to the highest Then we all got super quiet like the Mayans And i don’t even know where the fuck we go from here A bunch of long hairs growing beards not showing fear One step forward taking two steps back And pray to your mother we don't hit a crack
18.
I tie up a noose with a few loose ends Then cook up a goose with a few good friends Don’t refuse to look when the stew gets rolled in We’re all jerky when the meat gets salted No squirming when the heat is altered I’m still learning, still exhausted Sitting here trying to imagine the look When the universe sees what we did with a book Still dealing with the fall out good looking Out for one another until we snuff this little war out They said to burn down the burroughs and the whores house It’s too bad the only truth was coming out the brothel March on the capitol and burn the stores down Nothing trumps that now look who’s being awful Leary tried to teach us how to solve our problems Without dealing with a universe that’s hostile Focus on the one that’s big Block out all that other shit Raised on that P-Funk LSD Mothership not like these other kids It’s the simple art of mind control so mind your own Rock the boat sit down and mark the dough With a subtle flick they all fall down like dominos That’s all it takes to vamonos Quantum field code then computer crashes Just another day with an information savage Let me kick it for a minute I get vicious then manipulate Patients wearing thin while I’m mimicking what’s on my plate Gimmicks come a dime a dozen rhyme skills rival thunder Ripping tor a final summons y'all best hide your onions Dipping limits giving critics room to scrimmage Flipping digits through crypto bridges let’s make a hedge fund (Hedge fund?) Like sonic dropping coins often Faucets soften the fall when it drops to rock bottom Time is worth more than money bees argue over honey All that from planting seeds don’t you feel funny Twenty racks eyes spinning like a pinwheel Pump and dump the only way these dicks can make a pig squeal They said to turn back the nerds who looked off white It’s too bad the nerds wrote the code for the launch site March on the Gamestop and lob the bombs right Through the front window while we argue over copyright It’s all sloppy I’m dead set then To let the zombies do the dirty work of henchmen If I’m still breathing then there’s no time to rest yet I’m killing every day until my death bed Quantum field code then computer crashes Just another day with an information savage

Intermission 00:51
20.
Laying there at night while i’m counting sheep Brain on repeat no amount of please Would you shut the fuck up yo i’m trying to sleep Not till you write it down to remind your genius ass In the morning when you wake up to realize It was nothing more than a weird dream And you feel like everybody's on the take But things aren’t always what they seem What’s real to me isn’t real to you Living this reality is barely new And if you’ve seen this little feud You’d be filling up your gas tanks too We’re living in a fucking simulation of a simulation Don’t look back or you’ll get sucked into the miscommunication All this dumb fucking ruckus drink bleach here Keep a tight demeanor and swing for the bleachers I feel like i wanna kick the bucket over spill the fun Release some other means of hunting all these silly motherfuckers Coming at us like we don’t got a bunch of guns or something These are fucked up times we’re living in and i don’t need the judgement Free the supper no need to subvert the leaders busted freedom hunter Disagreements wander cold streets filled with screaming bottom feeders Take me to your leaders blasting propaganda through the speakers So if you wanna build let’s build But if you wanna steal get buried in the field Double duty at the rocking Rudy copping fruity Not a newbie got the rubies hostile looking like Chewbacca Threw me through the window fuck it sue me Now i’m looking all hypnotic boujee With a bunch of suckers i went to school with who barely knew me Students sitting here fucking clueless Looking at the next duck trying to see who the goose is Should have paid more attention to hole in the boat Now tell me why y'all still vote...

AWOL 02:27
Digging in the dirt trying to find the treasure Learning how to mix this business with pleasure I’m kicking a lecture, spitting conjecture High as a bird while I’m flipping the gesture Living like a jester infesting these extras Dissecting a mess of ego looking headstrong Infinitesimal the spitting is next world And if you don’t agree well then I’m afraid you’re dead wrong So leave the mess hall and clean your plates up I can’t believe the rest of y'all feed on make up Bereavement break up to rearrange your wake up Big ol bloody mess like a scene from Braveheart Driving race cars to beat the fate it’s hard To meet your maker when the features ain’t marked Trying to slide underneath the paywall I’m afraid this mother fuckers gone AWOL Living on the earth trying to mind some headspace Give a little gift like i’m lifting dead weights The risk of resting kicks the nest egg Square in the nuts, y'all feeling teste The breeze has swept in no need arresting The least depressing so sweet but messy I need the best day to keep professing And hope my body doesn’t leave behind a red stain Pouring out a little liquor for the dead states While the rest wait and bleed domestic No means to gestate breeds the best cake Beauty on the back of the queen she just ate So take a little dive down the K hole While I flip the B roll right into A roll And make the payroll go a little further Replace the merger with the tainted version

Hocus Pocus 02:21
One two three hocus pocus Put your hands up if you keep losing focus Let me interrupt the daily hustle Sliding through life trying to not be noticed By those in charge who’s feathers ruffle At the sound of freedom sweet and supple They built these laws to keep us underground But the real dogs find us like a sweet new truffle People like music you can vibe to Whether living outdoors or in outer space This is that shit you can get high to Never underestimate the human race They one of the toughest creatures alive in the habitat Super fucking tough would you look at all the damage that's Wreaking havoc on a planet that Can only take so much before it lets us have it back Humans are super fucking weird But they’re kinda sweet when they’re sleeping A new sort of cage they like it when it’s see through Swimming with the sharks like a Zissou You gotta Always be careful when they shake your hand Micro expressions tell the lie All this aggression is usually commanded by Humans in charge trying to take your land First they act nice testing your defenses Then they pretend to take offense its relentless Then they come back with a bunch of weaponry To settle this discussion like it’s destiny Be wary of the gilded stranger Stare it in the face but can’t see the danger Trying not to live like a bunch of slaves here Paying off my debt in like 80 years Humans are super fucking crazy But they’re kinda sweet when they’re not being lazy A new sort of cage they like it when it’s see through Swimming with the sharks like a Zissou

Downsize 02:38
Waking up like a basement dweller Stepped out the door and heard racists yelling Two thousand twenty what an ugly shit show Staring at the fucking rick roll from the get go Looking outside the whole states on fire The fuck do you expect when you embrace the liars And replace the writers with ai just like us Emaciated models killing brightburns First in last out picture me rolling The worst time to cash out so what you holding The mercs gonna cash cow countries stolen Drooling over chicken like the goose is golden Trying to be soulful spitting that molten Lava from the bottom of the caldera I’m hot and Gonna put it in a bottle and offer it to the god who Hit the gas full throttle blasting off in a rocket Stitching these writings living that life like Who would have guessed you’d turn out this nice right Avoiding stress that’s the motherfucking secret Print that shit on a motherfucking leaflet I’m just an asshole hooked on the bricks Looking at the rectangles damn they kind of thicc We’ve gone through a whole lot of kings here Cutting off heads just to bring cheer Getting all fired up tiger king line em up When you’d give an arm and a leg just to try the junk On some first time buyers luck Alexa set a reminder and remind me to buy a bunch And put your hands up if your fucked this year And keep em in the air if your picking up the spare And put your mask on just to go outside Looking at the planet about to downsize

Boots stepping on the concrete where the rocks meet Night time special ops flushing out the raw meat If you think you want beef think again promptly Oddly the bombs never dropped on the party Probably the odds were too damn alarming Disarming the population is a hard feat Hardly, break out the booze and the drugs Wait till the bodies drop then roll up the rugs Raise up an army of suicide barbies Never bring a plastic knife to a gun battle Gotta praise mommy for the do or die heartbeat Gave up killing now she’s back in the saddle Better pick a side let em go gather When the dogs of war are out looking for their master Feeling all wore out like a blood donor But they wouldn’t take it, didn’t have the right aroma When the enemy strikes, you better have a flashlight Never have I seen darker days in my life Everyone gotta hand out looking for a pardon Me i’m just lucky i found a good partner The look on their face when the shit got started A bunch of dead bodies dearly departed It’s merely an art form made out of cardboard Got a brain in the head and blood pumping heart for Keeping everything saturated like a drug store Fighting through the lines like a blood sport of sorts Just trying to get enough food to live Can’t grow your own when you’re living in the shit In the midst of all this we never got our shit together Long enough to sit and think about the bigger picture Whether or not we ever had to run the risk Rather be a carrier gorilla in the mist

Do or Die 02:22
Rolling down the street in my six four I never had a six four, a kid can wish though I snap the wishbone and grabbed a fistful Chilling with a dope beat and some weed, is all i wish for I’m feeling blissful, I got a misses My ginger always down to ride no matter what the mission I’m singing this song, got a couple albums out We do alright, but it ain’t really shit to write home about Like to feed the fish bowl keep my stories mystical I like my beats boom bap and rap to be lyrical I’m feeling cynical, craving a little ritual Save my place in line while I try to find a miracle I keep looking and looking and looking but never find nothing We been lied to thinking there’s surprise under Super secret lies mother fucker sneak inside Going dark now believe me when I say the shit is do or die Digging through the trenches, trying to stay offensive Trespassing here like this land looks expensive Ain’t no time like the present trying to stake a claim Just make sure your claim stays away from all these other claims We’re almost kinda running out of land here Living in the day of the dead and it’s damn weird Same teams y'all we just trying to get a bite to eat A little rest saved up waiting for my time to sleep Head down middle fingers up yo I’m wide awake Never hesitate to stay about a hundred miles away Sever time and space while I wrecking ball the place I expect you all to play running marathons today When the sick get sicker and the rich get richer It might be about time to rearrange our dinner Fix the system the shit is all nixed Waking up early, gonna suck today’s.....

Throw Kids 03:17
One look in this direction and I got your attention With a little misdirection to plant my suggestion I’ve gotten better in my later years no stutter or mention Of half hearted holy truths to break the connection So I draw you in closer then I rub up against you I’m like a cat who stalks pray so sharp they call him the ginsu I got your wallet got your watch before you even knew what hit you Pawn shop and amazon gift cards to sift through I’m focused in the center to pray on these sinners Who eat sleep and fuck their way through this day long dinner It’s a buffet of creeps who like to shit where they eat So we do the world a favor and we clean up the streets People are unreasonable or so I’ve been told 90 percent of them are just a bunch of assholes Living next door to the ten percent who put up with Every little rage demon that’s ever thrown up kids Throw your kids in the air Just make sure you remember to catch them when they fall And oh yes, they will fall So we plot plan and pick our way through the decay And we tell ourselves life is truly better this way We know it’s not, well HEY we’ve almost legalized pot That’s one small step for man one giant leap for the crop That’s just one little problem out of a whole galaxy Of even bigger problems trying make life sad to see Remember kids this shits harder than it looks That’s what she said then she buried her nose back in the books Learn harder be bigger Move faster act stronger Stay up later so you can party longer Belong to a group of well oiled citizens Who help lay the framework for catching just a little zen People can’t see the soul or so I’ve been told 90 percent of them are just a bunch of fat trolls Living next door to the ten percent who put up with Every little rage demon that’s ever thrown up kids Throw your mother fucking kids in the air How else are they going to learn to fly? Just think about it...

Walking around with this frown on my face Like a baby you can’t shake depression I’m like maybe if I sit here long enough I’ll get another song finished up It feels like it’s time to smoke weed about it now Haven’t you heard? That shit cures everything around Be wary of snake oil salesmen And the snake oil they pedal in their pails when They tour door to door searching out new blood Blowing through town popping up like a goose bump All juiced up on the next best thing Next thing you know, the doorbell rings Who’s at the door but the god damn Lochness Monster Looking for tree fiddy I offered to be his sponsor I’m an enabler though so I gave it to him Just trying to delay his movements Listen it’s all about the road less traveled Business gets handled like corralling the cattle Morale is at battle with an unemployed Rambo Who’s cheating with god mode and infinite ammo So shoot up a school with your eyes closed (Please Don't) Then try to explain to me how Christ rose You wanna see gun control I’m blind though Fifty paces then piss yourself like a wino Nothing really seems for real Simulating a simulation that’s a raw deal When creating a creator to worship Go easy on the ego that’s steering the war ship I’ve always been partial to the planets rotation A parcel to plant on this seasonal acreage It’s feasible they would just take it At this rate I don’t think we’ll make it (Big Cheese) Life is like an arcade I know you don’t want to play With me I’m like Sonic with all the rings I’m like Mario when the princess sings Star Fox whipping his wings Miss Pacman’s kissing scene Kid Icarus shoes had wings Arrows fly, tug my heartstrings Little Nemo haunting your dreams I’m like Bomberman dropping bombs the most It’s like Pac Man chomping on a ghost If you want to play these games I can host

Acid Head 02:52
Reading in a book yo i learned something nifty The CIA was feeding people acid in the fifties Some people knew it, most of them didn’t It was like a little game they invented Sandoz had the plug it was all about the research Gotta get turned on hollering me first! Government reaction is always kinda knee jerk Not exactly what I like to see out of my leaders Zen lunatics trying to see the other side Everybody likes to hide and seek when the dose is high Paranoid like people are watching me Well, that’s because people are watching… see? If DMT is a niagrous of epiphanous beauty And psilocybin treats your mind like a movie LSD wasn’t the mind control they wanted So they kept designing different drugs to haunt us Just another night in the cabin camping 3 drops hitting each tongue like well that happened Feeling like a weird alien on this planet I’m just passing through staring at these inhabitants They didn’t know Provocateurs infiltrating lock your doors Trying to start a quiet riot so they could mop the floor Used to slay the forage waiting for the drum roll That’s what happens when cut throats get all the control Acting all manic the passion is frantic The visuals are magic so let your mind brandish This little weapon of mass dysfunction Red dawn down now we’re tripping with the Russians Reading in a book yo i learned something nifty The CIA was feeding people acid in the fifties Some people knew it, most of them didn’t And you wonder why we harbor such resentment

Sometimes this life seems easy Other times I wish it would release me Have a seat tell me whats on your mind, i wish Sleepy little people would just open your eyes It’s nice when life completes me And I can get ahead without cheating We’re the 99% to your one little slice Lemme be more precise, open your eyes (Mat Lee) All the greedy little grabbers who can’t get enough To all my rough tumble kids barely breaking bagged lunch I carry around this sad hunch Lifes going down the crapper till we flush out this crap bunch It’s a terrible time to try and be a white rapper Would've been better off on a hike to occupy to Iraq Watch your back here comes big brother Mission op to be wack and make the people suffer Sometimes this life seems easy Other times I wish it would release me Have a seat tell me whats on your mind, i wish Sleepy little people would just open your eyes It’s nice when life completes me And I can get ahead without cheating We’re the 99% to your one little slice Lemme be more precise, open your eyes (LYRICKAL) I been seeing all the protest, and reading the signs The Media suggest its a sign of the times All the while in denial, we go on with our lives Put on your blinds, single file, get back to the grind Billions of lives intertwined one future that’s on the line Millions of minds united, they call us the 99 Willing to get violent, and fight right through the lines Make a stand against a tyrant, start denying the lies No more enslaving our minds, call for the systems demise They won’t listen to whisper, so we scream to the skies Insist we all dismiss, well fuck it lets occupy And listen to this bitch I'm resisting till i die Sometimes this life seems easy Other times I wish it would release me Have a seat tell me whats on your mind, i wish Sleepy little people would just open your eyes It’s nice when life completes me And I can get a head without cheating We’re the 99% to your one little slice Lemme be more precise, open your eyes It nice when life completes me Other times I wish it would release me Everyone just do what their told The planets been sold, for a damn pile of gold (Mat Lee) Riddle me this, whys-life-like-looking for a needle in piss? I’m just needing some risk, your sitting there, feeding the tit Bleeding ya wrists, open your eyes and start seeing their shit Their eating your kids (Lyrickal) These people exist-creepin in shadows and mist Where they shape and they shift, damn right their planning this shit I'm just a student in the dorm feeling safe in my place The G-Dubs and John Pikes pepper sprayin in our face It’s nice when life completes me And I can get a head without cheating We’re the 99% to your one little slice Lemme be more precise, open your eyes

Watching these debates like what a bunch of noise When the illusion of choice out maneuvers your voices No one really knows what the fuck is going on here Sitting in the bunker waiting for the all clear It’s like we’re getting steered towards the motherfucking ice berg Captain all drunk deciphering where the ice lurks And we thought 2020 was gonna be a nice year Living with the plague like who brought the mice here? Try to think of it as another simulation Game full of bugs but still fun to play it’s Like we’re aliens beta testing earth Digging in the dirt trying to earn a little girth The beast is silent when it defeats the riders Living outside trying to meet this virus If you wanna watch it all burn from the sky rise Delete the science then increase the righteous Living like a jerk, return to feed the worms Vibing like a tree just breathing out the words Be careful outside them police is violent Feeling like I finally earned some peace and quiet Sitting down to eat a little piece of pie first Trying to be the fat kid you least admire Feast of fire when the beasts of burden Are getting all bored but at least we’re certain We found the imposter living among us Fussing with hunches another big chungus bludgeoned Don’t worry The fungus will clean up the guts and Get us to function on fleeting assumptions I see through the rust from rush to rush Hours stacked up like a bunch of junk So hush your muff before we stuff your luck And break your fucking neck to this like Busta bust Bleeding impulsive the meeting controls it When breathing corrosive no eating the bullshit Feeling the worth like it’s gonna be a good year Now we’re all tired stop treading on the work here

The Zoo 02:45
I gotta sit and think about it real hard Micro adjusting everything till i feel smart Always on edge, who’s skin is this? Compose some prose then I spit some real bars That’s when the meal starts we all dying to feed The only difference is some of us have meal cards Some of us steal cars create the real art Of how to make a body disappear in concealed parts That was never our dream what can you do? When the sum of the parts ain’t worth the can of glue And the fuckers in charge ain’t got a clue This ain’t no free ride we’re living in a zoo Don’t like the cage that we’ve constructed What kind of world where kids get abducted And sold to the highest bidder At some fancy politician type dinner We’re melting all the ice in the arctic Got a V8 don’t know where I parked it Why do all the dogs on the block keep barking? Smell the evil in the air like the devils farting No end in sight can’t mend the bite A bunch of zombies on the trail of some fresh new hype While the rest act like they forgot how to act right How can you act nice when all the facts lie? Break it down one time for all the Dum Dums Regurgitating the same fucking dumb fud Bum luck yo they never gonna find love Looking under rocks in the mud Stand up and fight or feed the pigs And hold your fire until you can see the drip There’s only one more mag on the shelf And I’m saving the last one for myself Don’t like the cage that we’ve constructed What kind of world where kids get abducted And sold to the highest bidder At some fancy religious type dinner
