{DEVINE}


[Intro]

It’s like I feel divided

Demons inside of me, robbing me blinded

Together, divine


[Verse 1]

I

If I

What if I

Told you I had a couple secrets?

What if I told that nobody, nobody, knew me through and through

What if I told you only God?

Only a god

Could give you a peak inside my skull

Without slamming revolving door

Third eye, I wore…until the other two dulled

I, hope you know I didn’t choose apostasy

A, ladder from the Power, doubt they’ll pass to me, directly

But please hold the fatwas, let me babble my fratta

Cuz maybe the daily engravings you saddled have round bout nada

To do with the Power, the power, oh, the power, they

Always obsessed with gains in life

Always bigger, within limit, like days of Christ

And not a fucking thing gonna change in life

So why in the fuck would I change my life?

We live in a society where looking out for others may well maim your life

Why bother advancing? Fuck the vanguard, stay the same for life


[Chorus]

Yeah man, evil is the shit, let’s stay the same for life

You’ll make evil your bitch, just stay the same for life

It’ll grant your every wish, would never, never take advantage

Just hope that you don’t end up in ditch, or staying maybe life


[Verse 2]

It

Should it

Why should it

Hm?

Why should it take an upheaval, to see all, we are equal?

Why does nobody understand at fetal, none are evil?

To feel shit, I’m eager, but the numbness of this culture sure running deeper

Why bother care about the weak, who gives a shit?

Why bother care where money be, who gives a shit?

Why question any trinity, who gives a shit?

Until it effects you, suddenly, detect you give a shit

Deject until I spit

Intent on teaching bliss

Precepts got people bit

On hooks dissecting jit

On books, protecting shit

Written by inept human beings

With bias in how they selected their teachings

It’s why I’ve always latex’d my semen

I have enough trouble protecting myself from the bullshit

Causing trouble when I want to elect myself for this bullshit

Aghaha

But who the fuck else gonna do it?

Who else sees the problems, the problems

Who else is gonna lead us through it?

I don’t want to, I’ll do it

If no one else will rise our ruins

In the tongue of man I’m fluent

So I was just suggesting someone with a potential for credentials

Ah...

{DRIFTER}


[[No-o-o, where...is where I'm from]]


[[Is where I'm from,]]


[[Is where I'm fro-0-O-o-O-0--]]

(I've got black, in my voots!)


[Verse 1]

I hope you know, every night, I

Imagine this cage I’m in

Like if I could tear, color right off out of our skin

I would

Right out of my eyes, leave behind the lives

Of people in my family tree, who’s dates I’m examining

On the head of their gravestones, because their vessels are gone

Because they’re fucking dead, and not coming back

They’ll be rebirthed as another poor sucker to find little love on the top of the surface he’s hopped on, he’s worthless unless he’s fucking profitable

What if our opinions were neutral of people we just met?

Demeaning wasting our breathe, so the rich can indict rules of feudalism

And white people, it’s the truest ism, that those found in power too often abuse it

So let’s at least--hm--TRY and not fucking abuse it, uh-huh

And I have a lot of secrets I do, but one of my least favorite

Is to inmate my think ways in order for famous

That race and religion and politics list as threatening topics

And if I want show vision, seem modest, and rake in profits

I have, to, shut the fuck up, mm

Toss ring, when zip my lips up-up

How are we supposed to fix things if we don’t one-one this shit up?

It’s dumb-dumb, this shit, that it should take any licks

Between any groups of people who just want to live

Who have good intentions

And brothers of purest evil

Forgot to mention that vices run free into their person, believe it you

Have a few of your own, you should check yourself, cousin

If you think I’m exempt, I wasn’t, I’m not, I won’t be, not now, not ever, not once

Admittedly, I have problems with loyalty, passion, ego, understanding

On myself and those I love, I can be kind of demanding

I’m impulsive, like once I was writing a rap and almost actually admitted some shit, ha ha ha, (almost)

And to distract, threw in the chorus again


[Chorus]

Yeah man, evil is the shit, let’s stay the same for life

You’ll make evil your bitch, just stay the same for life

It’ll grant your every wish, would never, never take advantage

Just hope that you don’t end up in ditch, or staying maybe life


[Verse 2]

I, love, hip-hop to death, man this shit saved my life

Cuz when I almost met, my self-induced end, for like the sixth time

I paused...

Realized the bars I write have the potential to change things

Maybe not as much as I like, but enough to suspend my own weight I bring

The damage to my environment, from all of this meat I eat

And the miles I drive, to many people, I lie

From the greet, I am lie

Can’t I just try true?

Maybe I’ve learned unless your sermon is best to preach to the preached

You should maybe keep it to yourself, and in time due

I could learn how to see things how others, they view things

In my royal lifeboat, lighting off these maroons

Sheets maroon, tried to birth some new shit

Days, days, always on that blue shit

Tried imagining their lives identical

But how can I relate when I don’t have an identity?

Through traverses, I travailed, eyes of others, in enmity

Tried be social through a focal; relationship status: enmeshment

I tried rationalizing entrenchment

But I never had a hometown, or core rapport--‘sides Mom or Dave, for them I’m blessed!

At the end of the day, though, believe me, everybody’s the same

For good or for worse

My words are getting terse

Cuz though a homie’s name I may just blurt, 'n though that one friend, I’ve missed her

Hard have brothers or sisters, when whole life, I’ve been that drifter

Drifter...

{DRIFTING}


[Intro]

(Substance abuse!) (shh)

This is...this might literally be

(Substance abuse...)

A fifteen minute song, so like

You know, thank you for listening this far, but

You don't have to be

You know, Mr. True Fan

Listen all the way through

You can skip to the next song

Ah, get it? Ahh...?

((Mama, come and look what God made...))


[Verse 1]

Wake up, erupt

Make it ugly, find some beauty

Tell your kids, they’re already mine

Lone travel, giving back mine

Long after it’s over, before it begun

Uncovering more of what always had been there

Chill drive home, point out the obvious

This song…


[Bridge 1]

“Hahaha…hey man? You know what they call that last line?

‘Meta!’

It’s like…you referenced the fact that this is a song, but like, on the song

Hahaha!

That’s pretty crazy, man!”


[Verse 2]

We don’t want problems

I mean, I

I don’t want problems

Don’t give me more problems

Let me just be smaller

I won’t take your offer, no

I’ll just sit till I’m smaller, and smaller, and smaller

My life will be perfect

And won’t have any problems

My life isn’t worth it

Yes it is, just urgently shake ‘em problems-s-s

Shake off ‘em problems-s-s

Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it

Me, girl adjacent, maybe wake ‘n bake it

Crazy sexed up mess, on camera saved it

So later I’ll, recreate the

Feeling made, one, second I thought

“Damn I’m gonna, marry this broad

She makes me feel good, she makes me feel loved…”

And then I remember it’s infatuation...

I know thanks to subconscious, the situation dumb

We’re just two rubbing tonsils, just waiting for lull

To choke our paths dry, of this path I have hunch

Long after it’s over, before it begun

It always, it always had been there

Chill drive home, oh look, it’s so obvious

It’s this song…


[Bridge 2]

“HAHAHA…dude…d-d-D-DUDE…that was an effective use of what I like to call:

‘Repetition!’

It’s like…you repeat something that was pretty much already said, to like, solidify the memory, or something?!

Or something...

Cuz you know, you hear it a lot? Ya know, like earsnakes? Hahaha!

Oh man, that's pretty BRAZY, dude!”


[[12:57, AM]]


[Verse 3]

I guess I just hate waiting for what I know may happen but in reality is guaranteed by nothing

My life

My life is on the edge of cliff

I’m just waiting to be saved, or to fall down the rift

And all this waiting is shit

And all this teetering

Makes it really, really hard to believe in things

Too much pressure the one way, you fall off, abyss

Too much pressure, the other, a life of bliss for your mother

The first side is 359 degrees

My first life is my past, it is mine, and it’s supplying these–

These

These

It’s supplying these insecurities that are holding me back

But never mind a lime light or ever rolling in cash

I just want my human back

C’mon

Give me my future back

I acted out, and now I’m sitting in my room for that

I guess this is what I deserve

For trying

Mm

If this is how I live, then I hate to see my dying

I try making promises for myself, I’m trying

But whole, whole, life, they were honestly lying

Every second not whining, just dragging themselves up by my hair

I’m thrashing underwater, as I, quote-quote “lag,” they just stare

What a blasted piece of varnish

On their faces

On my faces

On these places

Never 'til now, hated

Never billed for statement--

Hey, that reminds me, you owe me 40 bucks

But, it’s okay

I guess I still love you

I guess

(There was emphasis on "guess" with some of thaaaat

DA-DA-DA-DA

REPETITION!

Titian, Titian, Titian!

OH WE GOT SOME SUBLIMINALS!

SOME RIVER LULLS!

SOME FILLER BULK OF SILLY ATOLLS!

GIMMIE A HAND, GIMMIE A CHOKE!

AAAAAAAAA-A-AH!)

I have no feelings left

I have no feeling left

But I know what might help

(I just remembered the next song isn't "Next," God, fuckin'...who made this fuckin' bullshit I'm tired of this...)
