[Chorus]

Let me invoke the muse and infuse this hip-hop

With words that enthuse and then cue the beat drop

Gather round

I'll expound it forthwith

It’s the profound sound of Stereomyth

Let me invoke the muse and infuse this hip-hop

With words that enthuse and then cue the beat drop

Gather round

I'll expound it forthwith

It's the profound sound of Stereomyth


[Verse]

Lush green port by the sea

You contort cautiously as you slip between the crates and grates

Stacks of gold plates, scales with weights

Exotic merchants tattooed, but all you seek is food

A beggar vagabond grey-hat street-rat orphan

You grew up poor and forcing situations so that you could survive

The constable, he wants your life to end

You have no choice

Eyes moist, you go and steal again


[Chorus]

Let me invoke the muse and infuse this hip-hop

With words that enthuse and then cue the beat drop

Gather round

I’ll expound it forthwith

It's the profound sound of Stereomyth

Let me invoke the muse and infuse this hip-hop

With words that enthuse and then cue the beat drop

Gather round

I'll expound it forthwith

It's the profound sound of Stereomyth


[Verse 2]

But admiral Akbar warned you that this would be a trap

Such hubris, lugubrious

Now in medias res

The constable does advance as you flee in a dance that's played out

So many times for your so very many crimes

Through houses stacked like turtle shells washed up by the tide

You evade and you run, duck, and hide, but never fight

Sense of right still prevails

But the cops they pursue you like a pack of ravenous killer whales


[Chorus]

Let me invoke the muse and infuse this hip-hop

With words that enthuse and then cue the beat drop

Gather round

I'll expound it forthwith

It's the profound sound of Stereomyth

Let me invoke the muse and infuse this hip-hop

With words that enthuse and then cue the beat drop

Gather round

I'll expound it forthwith

It’s the profound sound of Stereomyth


[Bridge]

Arrows sing as they begin to fling by your eye

They catch you standing blinking thinking is today when i die?

You get to running, now they gunning, so you reach for a rock

And with a cry, you let it fly then turn and head for the docks

The rock misses the cops

They diss you in flock

This pisses you off

The constable scoffs

You cough as you notice that you’ve hit a dead end

No friend in sight

Your would-be captors running not far behind

Your only choice is to stow on a boat like the cold stows upon the frost

So you get lost

You jump aboard and go below decks

But suddenly your plan's wrecked

An old man grabs your hand and reprimands you, so completely vexed

He takes your wrist and with a twist he drags you up above

And frowning, drowning in your mind

You see the cops, they have no love

But then a crackle and surge, you hear a booming voice purge ring out

The old man bellows with a terrible shout

The constable flips, jeans dripping with piss

He trips as he runs, and fleeing en masse, the troops forget their guns

The old man breathes and bows and starts to pray

You feel the boat begin to slide away into the bay


[Chorus]

Let me invoke the muse and infuse this hip-hop

With words that enthuse and then cue the beat drop

Gather round

I’ll expound it forthwith

It's the profound sound of Stereomyth


[Outro]

Its the profound sound
