Ultimatum 03:09
Gotta make it work, I don't have another option Pissed in the wind so I'm saying fuck caution All limbs on board the ride, no way I'm getting off it Instead I'm here for good; no Hopsin -finite possibilities, rippin' raw soliloquies The uncut dope, my sentences be killin' fiends The willing bleed, the unwilling sleep So we'll keep countin' drops; you keep countin' sheep Never paid my way onto a bill Never unnecessarily flex the skill Never wrote murder raps, nor would I ever kill Though it's highly likely that I'm terminally ill Patiently waitin' for priority placement In the basement, an audience with satan Potential is wasted, along with enemies Gotta keep warm, hence the effigy Girlfriends? Regular friends? Occupations? Yo, everything ends When all's said and done how will your time have been spent? Will you regret every cent that you lent? I used to know this girl, keywords "used to" But she left when we didn't blow up like the Juice Crew Now she's hella mad when she's on YouTube Hearing all the hype about her ex-boo's group Success is a dish best served warm And I sure would love some heat to help me through the storm An androids marked defective when he fails to conform So imagine what they'd do with our corporeal forms I was only joking when I said That you don't wanna hear what's locked in my head The only way we'd be better off dead Is if roles were reversed and we were you instead A blind Shepard led his flock by cloth to the water Came home with none, really stressed out his daughter He was under the impression that the flock had fled But what he failed to see was that the cloth was red Girlfriends? Regular friends? Occupations? Yo, everything ends When all's said and done how will your time have been spent? Will you regret every cent that you lent? Relationships fail, and albums flop Used to have hella friends, but now I have not Guess that's how it goes when you refuse to stop We were aiming for the middle, but we hit the top The only thing we have to compensate for Is the fact that we should probably get paid more Fuck it though, a meal and a spot to sleep's All we really need, double D's philosophy Is to often bleed - and do the same to opposition It's not what we're about, but we don't shy from competition So we plant the blades at the 10 and 2 positions And then we carve our names, as if we're superstitious We don't have another way, we invested too much passion Invested too much love to find another course of action So if whether or not we sacrifice is the question that you're askin' Name it - we've lost it - it's already happened Girlfriends? Regular friends? Occupations? Yo, everything ends When all's said and done how will your time have been spent? Will you regret every cent that you lent?

Hard to find the line between the senses and synapses Especially in times of relentless relapses Vacuous, voracious, violent and vapid Gratification at it's most rapid An addict knows better but does wrong anyway When you get caught, tell me, will you know which song to play? A longer days been long awaited, I don't think it's coming Too much time in cyberspace, no one remembers running Anything but programs, double clicks and dialogs Tired of someone? Simple, turn the dial off Better find a save point, relax for a minute That place only exists when you're in it There's no there there There's no there there There's no there there There's no there there In a C of logic you'll find that nonsense'll ripple The concept is simple, both complex and fickle Content is minimal, onset subliminal Impulses to think objects are really cool Objects of ridicule only exist on this plane Uplink and hijack it, let it never be the same Soothe away thoughts of pain with digital cocaine For the last fucking time - I don't wanna play your game They're all sending invites, and pictures in skintights Using fingers to fumble words that would fit their lips right Zip bytes, and send out the folders A file path is no more than a cord to a controller There's no there there There's no there there There's no there there There's no there there There's no ghost in my shell Just a pilot guiding it towards hell There's no ghost in my shell Just a pilot guiding it towards hell There's no ghost in my shell Just a pilot guiding it towards hell There's no ghost in my shell Just a pilot guiding it towards hell

[Skeptik] You won't reach it, nah you'll never attain it There's no such thing so fuck it, don't even chase it It's basic, or at least it is in theory Mastery is gained when you can no longer explain it clearly Or at least that's what I've been told for a long while The end is nigh, doomsday is nearing, sandwich boards are back in style Crack a smile, hopefully it's not your neighbor's Give up on your savior and check your own behavior Let em savor the flavor, and soak it all in Can tell from marks on the skin the kind of places we've been If it's not the destination, and it's not the journey There's no point in embarking, even less in returning Speaking of turning, where does this world get off? Crabs in a bucket; rabies in a pet shop Death and sleeps relation has been remarked upon enough But sometimes saying stuff is like Super Saiyan tough [Danny G] Perfection is a nightmare why would you want that Stop that all you're really after is a "non fat" Starbucks God damn, at heart you're a hog man and lemme guess Deep down you're a sports fan? There's nothing wrong with physical activity In fact the exercise will make your body feel way less heavy Well Michael Vick was a pro star, so hard In the spotlight till he made dogs fight In his court yard Agent orange, Americas best plan To bring out enemies back in Vietnam They were still human, military was assumin' Wouldn't harm our troops, soon was proven that it hurt every man Now it's time to crucify my self with a point of view Egoraptor will show you, cause I'll need help Is Ocarina the best ever? I love that game, but when is waiting hard? Never The world doesn't care about you The world doesn't care about me But that doesn't mean there's a reason to cry It's just that planets tend to lack feelings

Fill the pots to the brim, no need for a lid Back in the day I heard the thunder, and needlessly hid Now I don't hear the boom, it's drowned out by my speakers And the sound my heels make they shift against my sneakers Neither one of us had ever planned for this Met as amorists, parted as anarchists The holes I couldn't fill, that's not a turn of phrase So now when it rains I get flooded for days But I remain in one spot, stubborn, not stagnant Clinging to my own worth, as if I was a magnet Used to never rain here, now it does constantly One finger to the sky, as if it's what she wants from me The funny thing is I've forgotten how to laugh But I sure know how to follow up on tracks When one pot fills, I replace it with the next Dump the contents out in the form of text It doesn't matter how many pots are laid out It's still the same roof, still the same house The only spot of rain in the middle of a drought So nobody knows what I'm talkin' about I gotta doubt me, oddly, it's the only thing that fuels me At least til the day that me and my muse meet But at this rate, that day will probly never come A pessimist? Nah, I'm just not dumb I don't trust in the seasons, never had a reason Or a cause, or effect, or combination to believe in I remember what was said, forgetting what was meant Sentiment and sediment sometimes mix to form cement I might need just a little bit of grounding Thunder strikes more than twice if you choose to stick around me My head and my heart are constantly pounding So instead, I focus on the life that has found me Surroundings are gonna dissipate you see The atmosphere's kinda relevant, or so it seems Sometimes a rainy day is just what you need But you gotta be careful not to drown the seed It doesn't matter how many pots are laid out Its the same roof, its the same house The only rain in the middle of a drought So nobody knows what I'm talkin' about Six feet? Try forty leagues Pretty hard to succeed when you can't even breathe I wear a shitty grin and make do with what I got Which, to be straightforward, is not a fuckin lot A spot to sleep, and a collection of pots The floors only there to catch the rain as it drops I wrote this song to it's rhythm, so if it ever stops The only choice I'll have left is to lay down and rot Not to complain too much, but I think it rains too much Melancholy nights with a painful touch So as the rain keeps falling, I continue blowing smoke Maybe I can't laugh because I am the joke It doesn't matter, a simple phrase I use to cope A void is preferable to the pain of hope It doesn't matter how many pots are laid out It's still the same roof, still the same house The only spot of rain in the middle of a drought So nobody knows what I'm talkin' about

Stone Masks 03:42
Problem: the suns too bright; solution, blot it out Rotten core ignites the pollution god forgot about Fire and brimstone, the nightcrawlers secret Songs about nothing, still waters are the deepest I mean it when I say it, that's the reason that I say it Dracula backwards, symphonically I slay it Phonically amaze kids, can't be honestly phased it's Sonically based, ironically erase bliss Replace it with knowledge, only the stupor makes em smile I ain't smiled in a while, happiness is not my style I time away the while, while away the time Lay face down on the floor and pretend that I'm fine Blood says I'm next in line, skin says not to be so foolish Mouth says do whatever, just make sure that it's ghoulish Heart stays silent, or do we just not listen? A silver lining, nah, rain just tends to glisten Mask made of stone Blades carved from bone It's with purpose that we roam Through this place all alone Evolution demands What fate condones Wear the mask to distract We have no faces of our own If you can't blot it out - well then I guess you'd better join it I don't do this for enjoyment, know that pride is high annoyance I find that light avoidance is a band aid not a suture I just might destroy it, and by it I mean the future If you love it set it free, if you hate it make it dust We know what to do with lust, but not so much with trust A mask is a facade is a feint is a ruse What we lack is a choice when it comes to win or lose We're all here to play a role, but that role's not predetermined Thus if I ever burn it's my own hand I'm burned with Concerned with this world and the axis it turns on It's my job to see that the wick doesn't burn wrong The sun's rays only make my blood blaze I wish I'd never been born some days And some days I wish you'd never been born either Still other days I realize that people are good theater Mask made of stone Blades carved from bone It's with purpose that we roam Through this place all alone Evolution demands What fate condones We wear the mask to distract We have no faces of our own Hid our complexions with rock, perfected the plot Neglected their gods and infected the lot I might thirst for blood but that don't mean I gotta have it I'm a god and you're a maggot, you're a drake and I'm a dragon We fight fine in the night time but you might find A bright shine leaves us grasping for a lifeline The statures of statues, existence is art Resist this small fact and we'll rip you apart Necessity - the mother of invention Incessantly - converting men into henchmen Obsessively - and then we shift our attention Progressively towards the escape of this dimension Actions pave roads, intentions form foundations Smirks are just smiles with an underlying statement Y'all can stay complacent, I'll be nowhere adjacent Experimenting in the shadows of the basement

Budokai 02:51
Few have tried, we ruin pride It's suicide, Budokai Speech pattern irregular as fuck Thats the way that I like it Danny G comes with the drums neatly tucked Skeptik devises rhymes like a psychic I might kick some shit to knock you out in one blow Or I might knock you off of the platform What's the point in talking shit when you paid for the show? I see through facades when they act warm Blood runs cold when they see these techniques Most time accompanied by a case of wet feet Studied all the styles and combined them in one The reason I won is cause I'm rhymin' for fun Couldn't reach these levels with a nimbus cloud Your music is shallow, stupid and loud We take pride in what we do cause there's a reason to be proud So make sure to let us know what it's like on the ground Few have tried, we ruin pride It's suicide, Budokai A contest? Hardly, not even nearly Dragon A and Dragon 1 are takin' medals on the yearly Only know one way to win and that's severely So clearly anyone who's stepping didn't hear me I'm pleading for your life, just remember that Tapping pads with Kreuger's claws "don't make me dismember cats," Leaving no survivors if you all don't surrender fast Yeah, you can blame your friends for that While we're at it, blame em for the state of your psyche You all pray to the cult of stupidity most likely And value gettin' high a little bit too highly But who am I to judge, you're probably coughing right beside me But that's beside the point, so imma take that joint Unroll it, retwist it, and stab you with the point Im highly annoyed, wanna see society destroyed Any value you once held is now entirely void Few have tried, we ruin pride It's suicide, Budokai

Rawr 02:34
Kill my darlings? How 'bout you kill your dieties? Dragons compose the Pliedies and leave you seeing three of these Flee in peace or get flung in pieces There's two in this pack like snack cups from Reese's It's 40 miles from my door to the vocal booth Or more like 42 if I were to quote the truth The whole truth, and not settle for estimation We cause all three forms of expiration Precipitation - what that means is we're building Elimination - of all the things that don't fulfill me No hesitation, got a special set of skills see Danny G gives em life, then Skeptik kills beats How many mc's must get pissed Before I realize that they even exist? Maybe if they gave a shit about the words that they writ I wouldn't have to tear em up and then swallow the bits Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Polite at times, but we got no trouble braggin' Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Life is like a movie but with awful actin' They say it's all in the wrist, well I don't follow these twits Far too concerned with making quality hits Only phrase I don't get is "calling it quits" Without this release I'd be hollow, a rift I don't call it a gift, I don't like the implication I had to work for it, can I get some vindication? An indication of the steps that I've taken The cuts that have healed, the bed that is vacant? The head that is aching, the words that're spilling From the hole in my chest as I attempt to fill it They say it takes a village, we've already razed various Gatherings of humans in a manner most nefarious They sit upon low peaks and claim they're still precarious While we channel the masters; Plato and Stradivarius Perilous? Maybe. Serious? No doubt Takes risk to see return and trees don't grow clout Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Two headed beast, Shoot and Knuckle action Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon Rawr, rawr, like a dubldragon We're referencin' Busta just in case you're askin' Zen gardens devoid of sand Instead they're filled with ashes More ash fills the land With each stranger that happens to pass it More than one path in this life Be it active or passive It matters not the size of the beast If the flame that it breathes is massive

Killumi 02:28
One plus one plus two is four An abundance of corners, but not a single door Not a lot left for man to explore I laugh when they say I should get outside more But I don't really laugh, not on the inside There's not enough room for me to take it in stride Can a heart succeed where once skin tried? What's the worth of a soul once sin has been applied? I don't know - that's why I'm askin' No windows; can't mark the time that's passin' Well versed in the art of inaction You know what they say, didn't see it didn't happen Watching paint peel's never been so surreal Underneath the texture all that's left is the feel Look towards the ceiling for a piece of relief And bemoan the sky I can't be beneath Shit, I don't even like the sunlight I got fist fights and bug bites, been on the net all night As this track I my witness I find that my business with the musical industry Makes more sense than physical fitness I've been taking control, no longer shifting in wormholes; what? It doesn't matter any way, a box isn't so bad Symmetrical and safe, and I can't get stabbed in back or the face What I wouldn't give for a glimpse of a shadow A brief chance encounter with a thing so shallow The touch of a breeze on the walk to the gallows There's a thin line between hollow and hallow Once I traced my outline up against the wall But when I turned to look there was nothing at all Is that a statement? Should I take it as a sign? I don't think in those lines, reality is too defined I wish I didn't mind, maybe then I wouldn't think Maybe then I wouldn't squirm, maybe then I wouldn't leak Maybe then I'd find the word that I always thought I'd need The one that means you understand you have to bleed But what do I know, all alone in this room? Singing songs that I leave echoes to consume Maybe the revelation came a little too soon There's more than one way to spell doom Shit, I don't even like the sunlight I got fist fights and bug bites, been on the net all night As this track I my witness I find that my business with the musical industry Makes more sense than physical fitness I've been taking control, no longer shifting in wormholes; what? It doesn't matter any way, a box isn't so bad Symmetrical and safe, and I can't get stabbed in back or the face

Carry The L 02:34
These boots don't fit and neither does the t-shirt Hand me downs don't stretch out, they only make my feet hurt My brother is a hero and a plumber, not a teacher He's spent half his life chasing a princess through the ether Leaving me in charge of the family shop I had no one to help me, that's the reason that it flopped 'Your brother this', 'your brother that', another mushroom in his cap Well if my brother is so big, then why he is so short and fat? I ponder that - among other things Like why is he the only one getting kissed on the cheek? I did my part, helped him murder helpless turtles But there's only enough respect for the one who jumps the final hurdle It's hard enough to be The brother of a plumber So imagine me, Luigi Looking at the stars above us Knowing they're outside my reach Treated as a constant bummer It's hard enough to be The brother of a plumber I can't move away - no matter how much I dream Our motion is capped by the length of the screen I'm not just in his shadow, at this point I'm the bulk of it He's constantly juiced, which leaves me feeling like the pulpy bits He may have wrote the book but I'm the one that bound and published it Somehow deemed unfit for all this being seen in public shit He's loving it - watching me carry the L It's affixed to my hat so I've no choice but carry it well It's hard enough to be The brother of a plumber So imagine me, Luigi Looking at the stars above us Knowing they're outside my reach Treated as a constant bummer It's hard enough to be The brother of a plumber

I know, that you've seen a lot And I know that you know that the fire is hot And I know what it's like to be forgot While I patiently wait for a shoe to drop Only one way to find out Only takes two eyes to blind doubt Only took three dates to lie down You've been on my mind since and I find now Perspective leaves much to be desired Only get one view point, and that view gets tired The irony being that the things that we're seeing Escape definition, but never lack in meaning Might be bleeding, but every drop serves a purpose Opposite reactions, we dig beneath the surface Can't love anything you won't admit isn't perfect Luckily before that moment, it wouldn't have been worth it Trading promises no one else can hear Eye to eye, and lips to ear Speak in a code that's grown so clear And only leave marks that'll disappear You know that I've seen a lot And you know that I know that the fire is hot And you know what it's like to be forgot While you patiently wait for a shoe to drop And somehow all of that is a valid excuse If it's really what you want then I'll cut you loose But please just this once, tell me the truth What is it that you think we have to lose? She walked away, maybe that was better We're both smart enough to know there's no forever But does that really mean that we ought to just never Reach our arms out, for the fear they'll be severed? So I reached out and our hands met Her face went as red as a face can get Embraced her briefly, yet the moment dragged on And was gone before I knew it; a real sad song "we're both better for it" she said with a smile Hers was so unique, it cut me with style Watched the door as it came to touch the frame Wishing I knew how to forget a name They know that we've seen a lot And they know that we know that the fire is hot And they know what it's like to be forgot While they patiently wait for a shoe to drop If love is a battlefield then of course there are casualties Way too many lives entangled, way too casually Growing up these days, the patron saints of apathy And naturally they fill the role happily They watched this little three act play Saw emotions form, and they predictably fade Just some happy kids stuck with the hearts of sad punks Drowning in their id's, and other sad junk Tryna find a path that might not exist Can leave you disillusioned and your insides in a twist So I understand, when they ball up a fist And aim it at the name of all that they've missed Certain truths only wounds reveal Discolored skin when a scab is peeled So I don't pay any mind when they're forming Stars form constellations, and scars tell stories

Y Wulvz? 03:55
The moon does what the moon does The wolves howl and consume blood The sun should be coming up soon but It's been hours since that moon budged If the night never ends I hope to die in my sleep The streets are lined with wolves and entirely bleak They hunt for no purpose, even tire of meat But instincts are instincts, desire's at peak Tryna speak sense is senseless Ironically it's the part that's still man that prevents this Plagued by a lack of intention Logically then, they are above any form of abstention Mention of consequence brings about consequence Locking doors at night is just common sense It's not the darkness, but what lies beneath Eyes and teeth that deny your sleep Why? Why wolves? I don't know, because The smell of blood Intoxicates them Why? Why wolves? I don't know, because The taste of blood Intoxicates men The wolves do what the wolves do Content to cast the blame at the full moon They speak in human tongue don't let em fool you One bite is all it takes you'll never pull through Despite what you might think, they had a choice in this You think fate catches up to the boisterous? Nah, it doesn't go that way They never pray for their prey, no time in the day And what they say - never mistake it's worth It's not ink on a page, more like marks in the dirt Nursing old wounds only reveals where it hurts So straighten that back and let go of your shirt It's not a curse if you find yourself content It could be worse - they also could've raised the rent Not to be terse, but I can't even hear you vent From the inside of a hearse it's rather hard to lament We do what we need to Pull the veil so thin it's almost see through Draw a blade and you'll see they bleed too Even with their last breaths they won't concede truth We need more eyes if we are to understand How a wolf can be born to a son of man Throats are slit, hides are tanned That's what you get for feeding wolves with a stunted hand So why wolves? How come canines? Standards eschewed by lack of a baseline Now I wonder - am I one and the same? Mammalian flesh circles reptile brain All of this built upon the weakest of frames Probably the reason that we reek of game Used to be us, now they see us, wanna eat us And deplete us til we bleed dust Why? Why wolves? I don't know, because The smell of blood Intoxicates them Why? Why wolves? I don't know, because The taste of blood Intoxicates men
