[Intro]

Music's not a mirror to reflect reality

It's a hammer

With which we shape it

Yeah!


[Hook]

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

The fire flame spitters

We the shape shifters

To all my freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

To all the plate spinners

We the shape shifters

To all the freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters


[Verse 1]

Man, I hate hate, but I hate bigots

Especially the ones who make eight digits

His maid underpaid, and while she's making his steak dinner

Unaware of her tears, he wonders why's the taste bitter

Caught the itis, heavy eyelids, sleep too deep to wake him

In his dream state, cleans plates and his feet are aching

Leans weight side to side

Chemicals make his hands peel

Realize he's seein' through her eyes but he can't feel

Pillow, only Brillo pads

Wishin' he was middle class at least

Cooks a feast pours a drink

But can't sip the glass

Mental telepathy

Possess him with her recipe

To make him feel some empathy

Hears her thinking "Set us free"

Back in his own bed, sunlight is spilled

Between the window blinds

He then decides to write his will

Their lives are intertwined

Him and this young lady

Give away his whole fortune, did a 180


[Hook]

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

The fire flame spitters

We the shape shifters

To all my freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

To all the plate spinners

We the shape shifters

To all the freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters


[Verse 2]

A great plague crept into the space age

Transmitting hate, rape, climate change

My brigade with senses sharper than laser rays

Equipped with 88 keys, a 808 bass

To save the whole Homo sapien race

21 hours, 180 minutes, shorter than 8 days

To prepare for the events about to take place

Invading with a treatment and aiming at point blank range

Injected by a form undetected to the forces

Who are hoarding resources to make a quarter

We gain our supporters, going door to door to

Reconnect the cord from the brain to the aorta

Stop nothing short of

Everyone understanding

That all the power's within 'em to counteract this

United never defeated

Long as the fight is strategic

Self-reliance and sound as the tactic


[Hook]

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

The fire flame spitters

We the shape shifters

To all my freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

To all the plate spinners

We the shape shifters

To all the freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters


[Verse 3]

Take a deep breath, only one week left

Oxygen levels lowering with each step

Business tycoons send us typhoons

Seen the mic's doomed

Now we're only down to five moons

Schools closing, breakin' in to pop the locks

Cops mace babies–Krylon their eye socket slots

Getaway high speed chase, youth lead the way

Round up the DJ's, only down to three days

And survival hinges

On the motto that the knowledge is within us

Make the cynical wake up

Change their chemical make-up

Plagues energy, fade in to a vague memory

The last is the fastest day

Transform like Muhammad Ali did from Cassius Clay

Time travel to the next art form we adapt to

They'll sample this resistance time capsule


[Hook]

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

The fire flame spitters

We the shape shifters

To all my freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters

To all my crate diggers

We the shape shifters

To all the plate spinners

We the shape shifters

To all the freight bombers, break jitters, mic stage rippers

Tell 'em get they weight bigger

We the shape shifters
