The Fake & The Foolery

Verse 1.
Got me thinking on a whole new perspective
Kicking down the fence to my direction
Spread apart from the fake and the foolery
You can be the first to witness what it’ll do to me
Blackout ! don’t ever wanna cease I diminish and tap out
Im tryna adapt and speak facts
Whatever you better settle for nothing below
Forget the he say she say I’m lettin em know
Dispose all of the pain already made that choice
And if you doubted before you’re gonna hate me more
So explore quick draw they’ll try to ignore
Figure four tight grip the funk meets the raw
Am what I am, glad that you saw
Connect intellect expect no respect
Been quiet for too long now shits hit the fan
So now understand that we just demand you to
Pre Hook
But you don’t hear me though
Its bout to get real x2
Hook
They never really had a hold on me, They ain’t never had a hold on you
(I’m gonna interrupt when they speak)
They never really had a hold on me, They ain’t never had a hold on you
(Showing you what your eyes don’t see)
Verse 2.
Okay we taking over the section
Mind controls off the heaviest intervention
Point the middle finger at ignorant individuals
Fuck the limitations peep the innovation
No explanation its what we do
We setting the blue flame to spark something new
Been quiet for so long now shits hit the fan
So now understand that we must demand you to
Bridge.
Got me flipping birds upside now don’t feel the pressure on me
No censorship when Im on the brink I got a lot to say when I speak

End Times Blues

Verse 1.
I said don’t stop get it, get it get it I’m on it
I ain’t cautious I’m just stuck in the middle of “ fucking awesome “
We don’t need that credit, better call you a medic
It’s an ill pandemic forgetting the proper ethic
I’m just nutso holla, shaking hands with a scholar
While you’re punching for a dollar, see me ? I won’t bother
This is hey how’s it going, you numb and never knowing
I’m a dick, Im’a target marked with an X its showing
Hook
I’m the one who came with the bars, destination outskirts of mars
You the ones that we entertain, no exit for this we upgrade the grain
Verse 2.
I said get up get out and get something till you’re way too far beyond
I gotta pause for the people to uplift the energy, and wreck that ambience
You ready for the anti- anti, locked down for the drastic antics
Stretch out like the fourth fantastic, and light it up for Mr. Boombastic
Bridge
Bop like you mean it, hating eyes stay the greenest
Got em’ shook by the tune, catch a glimpse who the shit
Outro
As we enter the rap rapture, hip hop alternative we capture
Coming at ya, we coming at ya, rock n roll alternative we capture
We Coming at ya, we coming at ya, new wave alternative we capture

Honey In The Veins
03:37
|
|
||
Verse 1.
Tryna direct the adrenalin to a better place
Instead switching my thinking down to a lower pace
Enough procrastination patient while I hide behind the fact
That I am not another number born without a voice
Got me starting over this new chapter
So raise a glass with that “ hand-solo “ I’m chewbacca
Cause I salute to your cause don’t wanna hear an applause
To be considered as raw, just wanna leave em’ in awe
Yeah it’s awesome enough to redefine
See I was victim to listening to the doubtful minds
Crunching on my ears I’m still here to carry mine
Blind to the fuckery bury me at the finish line
I’m on point premeditated to get it live
You can guarantee that its automatic for any vibe
And with the method it’s evident when it stands out
To understand the meaning of meaning the shit you talk about
They prone to be aware that it’s evident when that relevance
delivers in a level of excellence, can’t settle for second to leave a trace of no evidence
I remain to be the illest like I’m lacking the medicine
Hook
Honey in the veins, heavy on my brain
I found a better way to set the drama up in flames x2
Verse 2.
Forget the doubt they're expressing I’m only left to wonder
Ponder bout the way that I’ve shaken off what has had us under
Reject the regular reinventing the message
I ain’t focusing on nothing but elevating the present pleasant
Let it be known I’m calling for higher power
Predictable with intentions, their bitterness stays sour
Devour what holds us, Embracing the truth tight
Yeah I swear that I’ve seen enough to expose em’ in plain sight but now --
I’m taking off and I ain't bringing bags with me
They tryna find me but I’m lost inside a Dream City x2
Bridge
I kickback to catch a vibe tryna peep through their disguise
Man I wonder what their eyes could see ?
If I could, break the borders of thoughts tryna distort us
Then I wonder if we’ll all feel free ?

Angel's Call
05:23
|
|

Verse 1.
It spoke to me when I was troubled tryna flip that coin
Provide a story for some others that’ll reach this point
Could never shield me from that sudden drop of self acceptance
Blessed enough to find the answer, after breaking all dependance
Independent mending, didn’t mention this until now
Its blank that I had to face and finally fill now
Feel fine, learnt hard, sunk deep but I’m slowly finding that closure
No picture perfect exposure
See with these scars I wave goodbye, I’m alive God let it slide
So I’m revived and need to share it, embrace that fucken error
Remember why it’s happened, how far I ended up
To fend away the world without a being I can trust
Nothing I’ll forget, and that’s that real scary part
Depart the dark that left a gap within my heart
Hook
I don’t feel the same anymore
And I could never settle the score
I’m tryna find my way
The only way out is through
Set aside all my wrongs, Gotta wave goodbye cause Im' on
Verse 2.
Some say that love is foundation, no lesson to learn in formation
To realise yourself it ain’t infinite we getting caught up in it’s evil influence
The bliss was momentarily, a way to mask all the doubts embracing me
And for the nights of abuse on impulse, I never was afraid to admit that revolt
Recap, plenty of regrets.. yeah I reopened the wound
“ But it made you then it played it you, didn’t really last so the past don’t phase you “
I’m talking to no one about it.. till it showed me desperation
Booked on a one way ticket to hell, I snapped out but it’s hard to tell
Am I allowed to cry ? or pretend to be the man Bro
No care for the next day, next pay - the next chase might land on the next stage
So I need to check on my mental state
I felt under pressure, I fell in depression
Ignoring the signs feeding the cycle a downward direction
But fuck that yeah I had to wake, instead of fate I decided that I could not wait
I took charge of my life for me first of all, so I can smile when the Angels Call
Bridge
Don’t need to phase it out forget these ups and downs
Knowing I have to maintain its a pain that I had to face
I’ve understood on my own, I’m tryna make it back home
Cant define what I am, I try provide when I can
Don’t need to phase it out forget these ups and downs
Uphold the confidence to be more than a slave to doubt
I’ve understood on my own, I’m tryna make it back home

Destroy Your Ego

|

Verse 1.
29 still spittin’ with an attitude
middle finger with a smile show a bit of gratitude (AYE)
This is light work checking if the pressure good
Tune it to the max and I be slapping all you Peckerwood’s
Wish I’ll quit but I don’t, Will I die no I won’t
Im preparing you motherfuckers for turbulence
Ain’t no coincidence I’m a high grade spitter I just eat beats (YEAH)
It’s chicken dinner for winners - Man I’m used to all that smacktalk
The Rock gon’ smell it, embedded to cause a ripple I cripple whoever steppin’
I’m preppin’ to get a mention definitive to that ILL SHIT
Kill switch (FUCK EM) I dead em’ all in an instant
Let me hit you with this next shit
I hardly ever flex non fiction with the mic grips
Cause I ain’t even mad though and I ain’t getting mad dough
And I ain’t gotta say that you noticing what I am though
Who the fuck see’s me I’m a ghost these days,
I get the urge then I burn em’ with a smile on my face,
My cliques small plenty people wanna test that steez,
But I chill.. Then I cut em’ when it suits my needs,
I got nothing left to ramble on, I gamble on a marathon
Of shit I think and laugh about, to conjure up the raps I’m on
Fucking up the scenery usually never new to me
So let me demonstrate what it do to me
Hook
Cause we ain’t got no time for these ego’s
We fucking up the scene wherever we go x2
Bridge
You ain’t gotta flex on me with your bullshit
Move quick, full clip, BLOAW when a fool slips

Hook
You see these lame ass puppets tryna do it the same
They thought me over but I told ya that it’s all gonna change
Don’t be alarmed I’m just here to raise commotion and hand’s
They brought me here to Bring The Ruckus, I was taught by the Clan
Verse
Oh baby when I take my turn just watch and Im’a proceed
There’s no need to be extra for this follow me as I lead
I know you wanna talk that talk, I heard you wanna get real loose
They asking me to do something crazy ? I’m only here to make you move
Don’t have to be the life of the party, these fools just wanna hit my roll
I gotsta be the one who flips it, I’m snapping on cruise control
The fuck you wanna stand right here for ? looking like you ain’t gon budge
Make me wanna break your front, you only gotta hear this once
Outro
I just want you to, catch my groove
Cut you loose, while I’m making you move

Eagle's View
04:11
|
|
||
Verse1.
People getting lost tryna find their peace
So I’m at a wishing well with a five cent piece
A metaphor to pitch an opinion cause these days tryna be authentic's a mission
Mistakes and experience, I soak it all in as I build life’s pyramid
It’s all for the taking steadily partaking forsaking
These walls I plan to be breaking its -
A given we resent that, I stand for the opposite thinking against that
My Dads got a point though let the words illustrate,
The minute you're doing from the core it’s legitimate
The hate’s at a minimal and now I gotta understand,
The world ain’t a test, Hold my breathe don’t slip when I break the news
I’m on a high seeing things from an Eagle’s view it’s like :
I’m over obsessing about truth, more like I’m fishing in the fountain of youth
In order to move forward, I gotta flip back and dispatch the dark to spark why I rap
And now I’m only feinding for that info, Im loyal to my family and kinfolk
The ignorance is poison, choosing to detox detour the minute that it’s impure,
Probably wanna copy my play now, swear that it’s human nature
But the whispers clear there’s no admission here
Cause I dismiss the comments and smell that fear it’s on us -
Blind tryna find my maker but my soul’s intact so Im’a still be grateful
Their cause is dead so I rely on action, I forget their doubts while I refresh that passion
Hook
I try tell em to wake up but they still sleep
Intervene with a new way but they don’t see
(They ain’t believing at all, But I’ll be there when you fall)
Verse 2.
Followed the flock for a dose of acceptance
But now I’m tryna parlay with the selfless
The insecurity of being outcasted
is placed in a box that my mental has mastered
They all wanna be the man of the minute but the minute
They turn away is how long they be lasting
Conscious in depth with awareness
With confidence through the soul I bare with

Personality Disorder
04:09
|
|
||
Verse 1.
Everywhere's where the fake be at, made to identify and trace the tracks
There wasn’t anybody telling me to suss the facts, so later on I embraced where I’m clearly at
Cause I can’t trust nobody, and I keep my circle minor
And it’s easier to put the hate on me then to be loved for the lies said prior
Forgetting that fan fair and that status, that propaganda you feed off
Fuck that validation, I be lacking patience, I relaxed and waited now I’m back to take it like -
Master P shit, took a little break now I’m back to beat ya
No beast I’m a demon like I beat the preacher proven once again
when you blast your speakers like --
Never gon' lose my grip don’t expect me to hand it over, I’m a ball hog for that buzzer
Bust your balls and laugh with my brothers, man Im piss taking this verse
While you's pissed mad with that hurt, and if my audience is one person ?
then it’s me hearing me murk (FUCK EM)
Hook
Turn it, turn it loud I said turn it loud
You ain’t heard what we about, you gon’ know this now
Verse 2.
You wanna be the talk of the town ? but really you don’t wanna know about hustle
So Im’a call em’ out and try test you, words that’ll raise the roof in our section
Proof that I’ve caused a lot of that tension, light up the match to burn if I’m mentioned
Lost in a scene that’s all a big act, so where the fuck is your purpose at ?
They speaking all of that “ trap banter “ but I’ve grown up to be smarter
And them same cunt’s that wanna beat me down don’t even come close to what I’ve conquered
All my old bars just don’t work no more I’m treating this like therapy
So I’m not part of that Aus scene cause my rap styles a discrepancy ?!
I don’t rob I don’t drug deal I don’t throw cash I just do me
If you’re not down with my lifestyle then you’re on mute when you all speak
Bridge
What you concerned about ? we took a different a route
No time for chatter see what matters is that focus out
They seem addicted to it ? soon as they hear that sound
Let em talk fuck em all let em fall
