when winter wants to leave ! but the cold lives in your soul an old woman once told me long ago... with the spring comes change, rebirth or so it goes a time to atone, abolish everything wrong but i stayed the same same, let my mainframe freeze no evolution or trait gain, a phonograph ... in a time of digital mystikal mr. prudentpast ask who is that... his trap door latched dural, elucidation, incubates the seedlings with tough talk and no feelings remove emotional reign you got the base... a maze in the vase a warm day on a cold night the sun rise watch life flash before your eyes in an instant and disapear like the threads weaved by the seamstress who is also a mistress, who is also a misfit who also dont want to live like this.. its sickening an inclination when the spring comes i know these scars are life long like tetrahedron the second song you missed it all it boils in my stomac, most of me a wrecking ball wound tighter, bound to end it soon, for rebirth a soothing soul, i never had, and never will with thoughts of laying on my deathbed forever still the old woman once again laughs, lashes out says you more than that winter is the same as drought i say i am without, rebuttles no, you are within... everything you are, defined as this, a mind of mist its all as fate... you hesitate and miss your plate but pull the trigger quick, no you better contemplate feed the earth with something other than your blood.. we all go back eventually, but now is not your time and with that the tree withered, new buds appeared and suddenly everything became clear

a polluted world... we pollinate procreate and assimilate.. yo ghost vessel... exhalted golden mezzanine we all lay inbetween, this earths core and chaos.. absolute proof is a sayonce-> travel with me ... a massive shift lazarus ships of coffins sail towards the spring passionless... captainless... imagine this.. every atom is reborn, or never dieeed, assuming this, you lived tragically and never tried... me? i made it to the end and turned back, as flowerz returning to the ground the seed uncracked motionless, the ocean is, when mirage of locust focus his swaying pendulum of emotionless totem fist, stolen scripts of earths hopelessness paid in full when summer never shows like a poltergeist never play where you want to stay not a day where you want to pray no honest lay, a snake pit for your hollow grave, namastae, die in a stalin fate you fall away a polluted world... we pollinate decimate as i illustrate.. yo pictures on my walls.. change with the seasons right now, they recescetated, start breathing raise yo hands to the sky when i start speaking, or your wings old ravens to the dark deacons im a beacon of nothingness, whyd you start seeking? when you arrived, destination deleted... a statement from a slick abyss stalemate checkered past with a black and white pale shade trees under i dreamed as a youth were torn down, burned and sectioned off as doomed its just me... its just the way it had to be.. its simple as that, placed back in the hatchery, corrupted everything he touched like humanity... and felt it in his heart, so he ripped it out tactfully.

dark matter in the basement of the lurking fear the tomb was the color outa space outta here doomstone round his neck like a gravekeeper through the gates of the silver key fate leper the white ship sailed blue oceans, blinkin in an out ; ant-artic owl potion acolyte of delusion, absolution absolve the old ones of collusion. who you be? the hounds smell gold in his coffin pocket watchin, delving deeper than a locksmith unconscious the whisper in the darkness, shadow out of time the crawling chaos drawls in a pyramids disguise H.P LOVECRAFT ; PURPLE LEMONADE Well in the city and his TOMB in the SHADE Why you Tryna Rain on the Gods Promenade Pillars in the cave emanate a grave The wolf queens silent and the whole town waits what the moon brings? imprisoned with the pharaohs cats of ulthar in the womb with a sparrow Nameless city, crossin bone hanging bridge al'khazar in a bazzar on the fringe the harlot, many boxes over many rows in a cave of many sirens, and not many foes, so it goes, wrote c. dexter ward, the alchemist of dark mania and discourse beyond the walls of sleep... from beyond a motion picture moving in the city lakes of fog strange high house of the mist, it twist, become a labyrinth, poe-laris, a gift, a wish from the townsfolk of Sarnath Providence, where the old ones were born at r'lyeh cthulhu, one flew over the cuckoo dead waits dreaming on the sea floor

place you inside you and who would you be? 2 times the person, or nothing but we.. I see, huh, hm, very intriguing, -> a lie on a line, the DNA is weaving twisting, stranding, without overstanding i understand were nothing a-like, like 2 planets, different orbit, morbid seclorum a bleach patch on the floor only this mourning a murder of crows, sang this tune, i hummed it all the way to my jail house blues, or greys, each day is fading away, my spirit does the same, but tah change form and re-locate cemeteries, where you want to rest but not today queen, i built you a nest whereee youuu cannn be reborn, and give back to the space you were you always thorned? a dirty shovel, what a companion and grave planning? is alittle bit demanding. ***i still hear your voice so i drop the furs give a couple more kicks to be sure hesitation, mind-ful of hallucinations realizations, an act of creation... reincarnation, a beautiful thing.. and this spring? you'll be blooming to a new moon adrift dead stars, i been gathering some, place em jars, in the tomb where nothing is far but you picked this place, you told me yourself, you could die right here, and you could die right now thats love isnt it? feel it in my heart twisting it wish to give you one more kiss but that just dissonance your fragrance, will follow me forever my wild flower that i burried with nebakanezer

ayo ; Ive been lost for so long its hard to tell in this world no different than a cell what images are mine, and where im destined to fail its a new breath, a new day,but that dont mean shit today i say we must change, but i mean we must adapt from every pitfall, swollen heart and every trap life laughs... a tragic comedy -> honestly, an odyssey.. apostraphe, it conjures me homeric similie... reborn oddities land of the lost prophecy, its my homily -> harmonies-audibly... incanting armories-> bring forth the sacrificial lamb and his apathy cyclical, tapestry, hopes and dreams stagnate... freeze frame the tragedy it seems and what it really is, no one really knows in the end, its the end, watch the grave fill and close

about

A full revolution ; A Start to an End ; An eternity, just a moment. The 4OURFATHERS decided to partake in a massive undertaking of releasing an Album for every season ; within the season. A word from our sponsors ; never attempt this feat, it was a brutal and wondrous event.


distrokid.com/hyperfollow/menesthepharaoh/all-seasons-spring-2
[ Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Google Play, ect ]


Instead of a classic primordial write up ; I want to give some details as to the process in which was cultured.

Within this 10 month period ; MOD had sent me over 100 pieces of production ; madness. Everything was produced on the PO-33, which at the beginning of these projects was a new machine to him. But in the true fashion of a HIP-HOP legend ; he did not falter. We recorded well over 50 songs for the album but in the end only 38 made the cut. All 4 projects were recorded / arranged / mixed and mastered in a 10 month period. We wanted to portray each Season with a Mood specific to that moment.

Spring is no different ; although a Season of Rebirth, it has been terribly dark and macabre. I think it is depicted fully in this project, and is also the most complete of all the albums.

We would like to thank everyone for coming on this journey with us ; It is truly appreciated. We as the 4OURFATHERS have much more in the future for everyone ; but we need to take a break for a minute. But it wont be another 10 years before our next project.

Much Love
