Lyrics:

Restore rap to a course,
void in my essence now back at the source,
days pass and beings are left trapped in remorse,
escape from that prison then adapt and enforce
till they've kneeled.

Here I can build.
Some wield the pen I use the quill as a shield in the field of battle,
where drums steer those that adhere like cattle
they don’t feel the shackles,
but they should hear and above all they should fear my rattle,
so you can keep your monotony, spoon fed monochromy,
I’m focusing on coloring my own minds anthology
so I can live by memories I love like photography

when I

Speak through the feather and sheet’s pact of allegiance,
reach and connect to the weak, constructively,
resonate my presence in beats,
radiating pride’s sorrow like Japanese ink,
from radiated steel tears, schemed for leaving extinct,
chinked to the brink, stripped of ethics and any instinct,
blink of an eye snaps reality to memory’s link,
I only flow reverse downwards to let messages sink,

The obsolete details make a passage complete,
these savages think living lavish and having a drink
in gold goblets, outlandish and filled to the brink,
brings respect that a brother worked to earn in the heat,
or learned through the beat,
or by fighting for a dream that he yearned to complete,
and now rests restlessly twisting his sheets,
to wake up dawnside to sell shit on the street,
searching to eat, concrete slow burning his feet,

I never lived on the street never held a gun in my hand,
and my backs always been covered by the homies and fam,
but god damn

We glorify these horrifying,
brothers killing brothers dying,
fathers try through smothered sighs,
got mothers humming lullabies,
to loved ones crumbling underside,
in graves that’s home to butterflies,
but still the hunters multiply,
and cloak hassles and dues,
these dudes are role models for dispassionate youth,
flow alchemy forge lyrics to fasten the screws,
emancipating what’s been taken, taming the dragons that spew,
warm sweet air, smog too, polluting the view,
but lack of vision let's you listen for invisible truths
