[Pre-Chorus: Listener]

I've got this axe to grind, let me run it by my brother

Deepspace forever, same fam, different mother

Swing your sword, keep it close to the head (uh)


[Verse 1: Sev Statik]

This is an army ready for battle to earn this war

Blood checks [?] not so many [?] in store

On a mountaintop of fools and liars imma start

And rip you apart and then give you a heart

And show you silence works even if it hurts to learn

We all got a chance to burn this old man

Who stands with a prideful smirk built on lies

There's a war goin' on inside, no man is safe

So it's time to put these fists up and shake them at the sky

This ain't a mystery God, Jesus is alive!

I took Him out the good book and put Him out the streets

I see the pew twice a week and rarely do I speak

I'd rather listen to the message and take what I can

With the Holy Ghost [?] and a plan of attack

So with that I'm a disciple of Christ on mics to spill

It's a well-known fact imma give you what's real

And I ain't scared to be honest and show that human side

Imma give you our groove and tell you how I [?]

It's a beautiful thing just to let go [?]

Letter to the front line, it's my axe to grind


[Pre-Chorus: Listener]

I've got this axe to grind, let me run it by my brother

Deepspace forever, same fam, different mother

Swing your sword, keep it close to the head (uh)


[Chorus: Listener]

I've got this axe to grind, two hands to the soul

Deepspace now, give it good to go

Razor sharp nobody's left behind

Deep water walkin', same breath, same mind


[Verse 2: Listener]

I swing a double huh, double sharp, double edge

Double up, rumble hard, trouble comes, drop the sledge

Do anything for my blood and caliber

Seen many things with my team and challengers

Space deep infinity chop it on the block

Fly straight as an arrow, stand on the rock

Leave my hand out for when you need it, need me

Always here for you if your bleeding, believe me

I'll drop a thousand pounds, fill sounds, with crowns

Split nouns, spit rounds, all the way downtown

Serrate the edge cut it down to the bone

When we're all together we call it home

Tattooin' your names, we're all one in the same

And we're bringing the rain, steady breaking the chains

And if you're not around i'm not a whole person

Spill my heart contents out for you in my verses


[Chorus: Listener]

I've got this axe to grind, two hands to the soul

Deepspace now, give it good to go

Razor sharp nobody's left behind

Deep water walkin', same breath, same mind


[Verse 3: Sintax.the.terrific]

Yo Sintax the axe grind put your blade to the back of mine

And we can trade glancing blows till the steel of your sword shines

Iron sharpen iron, test your mettle but keep your head

'Cause you can scale the next level but slit your throat out on the cutting edge

Jump in the fray and cypher-swing my word's a swordplay

Rock on on like skipping stones atop of ponds light the way

Epic with my weapon, verbal feats to keep cru-steppin'

Put conviction back in record brings the blade it never bends

So I [?] with the best of 'em, swagger to the rhythm

Dagger stab the drum just to stagger a friend

Draw my sword to make you deaf in the garden of Gethsemane

So heads to the [?] to hear more readily

Shape serrated teeth on the edge of the beat-break

Dice industry beef to mincemeat for Christ's sake

Got an axe to grind, I be your sharpening stone

Trim the fat from this poem and take a part in the [?]


[Pre-Chorus: Listener]

I've got this axe to grind, let me run it by my brother

Deepspace forever, same fam, different mother

Swing your sword, keep it close to the head (uh)


[Chorus: Listener]

I've got this axe to grind, two hands to the soul

Deepspace now, give it good to go

Razor sharp nobody's left behind

Deep water walkin', same breath, same mind
