UNDER STARLIGHT ; I FIND MY SCARS BRIGHT
MUST REFLECT FROM THE MOON ; A COLD LIFE
A BITTER NIGHT ; NO BETTER ONES IN SIGHT
I SEMPER FI'D, ALWAYS LOYAL IN MY PLIGHT
I MIGHT DIG YOUR GRAVE, I MIGHT CARVE YOUR TOMB
I MIGHT LEAVE YOU THERE... -> OR I MIGHT EXHUME
IVE FOUND THERES NO ROOM FOR LUXURIES IN THIS WOMB
I CANT STAND THE WAY MY NEEDLE DOSENT FIT THE GROOVEZ
SYSTEM SHOCK, EMPTY BELLY SYNDROME
IVE STARVING ON THESE DRUMS, M.O.D PROVIDES THE WISDOM
S.I.W THATS ALL THAT MISSIN ; REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY
DO THE KNOWLEDGE FUCK THE KINGDOM
COLD CRUSH CREWZ
DAY OR THE NIGHT ; SANDSTONE PEN ;
MOONSTONE MIC
BLOOD IN HIS VIENS, HE USES IT TO WRITE
LOCUST FROM THE MOUTH VOCALIZE HIS MIGHT
UNDER SUNLIGHT ; I FIND MY RHYMES WRITE
SCRIBBLE THEM IN A BOOK, OF HINDSIGHT
I USE PERSONAL ; OPEN UP MY VERSE TO YOU,
FEELING EVERYTHING I SAID WAS TRULY PURPOUSEFUL
FLOWERZ BLOOM WHEN HE SPITS, ITS A FINE TUNE,
ON A FINE DAY, FOR A FINE DOOM..
ITS A FINE LINE, BETWEEN LOVE AND WAIT...

YEAH... LOVE AND WASTE.
IM DISPLEASED WITH MY SENTIENCE
I'D RATHER WRITE MY SENTANCES, AND NOT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT ANYTHING
AS MY TEETH GRIT-> I FEEL MY HEART SLOWLY SHRINK

you the cornerstones to my pyramids
a mystery unfound, unsolved in appearances
exquisitness, polluted with disaterous,
the abacasus, sways slowly in my labyrinth
imagine this, a moment from the catalyst->
where two worlds collide and create a new adamance
the naturalist, the outcome calamitous
i feel my soul shriek and writhe within the animus
paralysis, the black widow wrapped me,
in webs she weaved, with a dark portal mastery->
seismically, i shook all the earth to catastrophe...
i still felt unfufilled within my galaxy
hanging lamps, i paint the picture clearly
with gas light, smoke, dope i miss you dearly,
stealing moments from opponents who dont own it
thats my land and i be damned if you ever step upon this
radio silence, im a child of violence
to say your highness, but not hold it to the highest
a black road windes and moans in existence
it creeks and croaks, until its old an distant
atonement, a coffin for your moments
your eyes bubble out the sockets decomposing
a shaman centepied, leaves the skies frozen
and were all still stuck in our very last focus
its madness, no truer words have-been spoken
i stand beside my calligraphy and its omens...
with all thats broken, everything needs fixing
but i cant do it cause i was never the victum
IN A PLACE WHERE GOD CANT JUDGE ME
IN A WORLD OF UG-LY ; DEFACE THE LOVELY
BORN IN TOMBS WHERE THE COLD WALLS ARE DUSTY
CONSTANT STUD-Y, ITS WHO IT MUST BE
PHARAOH

Cartography

ALL ACROSS THE WORLD
we hide from the beast
ALL ACROSS THE WORLD
we die on these streets
ALL ACROSS THE WORLD
we strive for perfection
and ALL ACROSS THE WORLD
we are the infection
cartography... spread across the globe like calamity
hypervigilant vanity, god insanity, can families, ever find there own majesties
no, we cannabilize our own legacies, its meant to be
a rooftop, moonlight cypha, with code droppin from mouths like a DNA sniper
dialectic craft, that points to the west, that sets with the lunar cycles, never find no rest
racoon eyed, sleepless in my own mind, but everyone sees me in a tomb like the doom signs
signs-of-our-time, i beg forgot, but phantoms walk on empty steps...
never leave a trace in the snow... the owl wolf..
im bitten and stricken by diseases thee unwritten, i feel it in my heart like my earths natural rhythm
spinnin and sickened by the changing of our seasons ; im tryna grow younger, but I feel my time slippin
LISTEN ; I gotta say it once for lifted, raise your hands to the sky
and push the sun hes gifted
like every mystik, he twist the worlds perspective
and puts it back in place that makes a whole different message
a lesson, but im not hear to preach,
nor teach, i'd rather see us all turn to dust
a statue in the dusk, cities turn to rust,
written in the sky is the end of all of us

Salacious ;beautiful in your movements
luminence radiates from your prudence
subterranean ; yes your beautys deep
what secrets do you keep in your keep?
...
sanguineness... the emperors exhalted
smooth melenated offer of mystik cosmic
cloud draping, featherfoot weightless
summertime vibes in war time ; impatient
the core mine, fusion center orator ->
the coroner, said damn shes a masochist
machines kissed her lips -> in moments of bliss
historians were sent through loopwholes and fits...
an ancient woman but her beauty was profound ->
by todays standards ; like nothing else around ->
what a paradoxical statement, scarification
replaced todays foundation, creation
.....^ and the blood of her enemies
was hair dye, right by my side ; when worlds collide
omnipotent, her magnificence...
sent ripples through the astral visages to the limitless
there was no place that she couldn't take me ;
the sage would travel safely in moments of occlusion
soul fusion ; opalescence ; ordinance
ordained by the water nymphs ominous
monoliths ; we basked and laid
and bathed in the waters of death, everyday...
towered swamps and great lengths, where we stayed
and i saw my future lie, but anyway...
she looked back at me..... and i cant really describe...
what i truly saw... there was no better time but...
i couldah died ... right then and there...
i would have been happy... no question or cares
and i felt it all fall apart

its in the air... the change of our seasons
we made this for yo whole year ; thats our reason...
underneath all the sunrays and treason ->
so many leave this earth without appeasin'...
misleading.. unguided labyrinth
lost-in-space-and time no longer ambulant
take a soul... place it in an amulet->
carry that burden... you need to be a man in this
im so sick of hearing all that nonsense, its pretense->
prelude to the next expense
pay it forward, thats whatt; was said to me
now im starving, stagnant, and... steadily
growing colder, and older, and bolder->
with hate in my heartt, that seems to carry boulders->
lead in my chest like a bullet proof failure
cement steps leading to a tomb thats so familar ...
the sky opens up, a chill seems to set in->
it looks just as beautiful but in a different setting
the autumn, where blossoms tend to lessen
fall from the tree and die, or reinventing

you thought it was over ; but not quite yet ...
you thought you could but you couldnt forget...
and when its gone you will always regret
but do your thing yo ; i hate you to death...
see my name in the clouds and when you close your eyes->
and when you spread your thighs it was always a lie
you wanted to lie with this until you saw our demise...
fuck those fake tears... falling from your eyes,-->
iceycle minds in turbulent times, it fits the crime
hieroglyphic lines and the pharaohs only pain...
painted in the blood of his enemies in chains
aint it strange... to see the nile fall from his face
an odd occurrence in an even stranger place
whillle angels play his jams *d0wn*annnd oscillate in space
but back to you mabeline queen lets make em scream,
and blow galaxies from your seams, with murderous machines
god damnit... this wasnt how i planned it
i swear it on my mother and put it on my father
with most of my life had the dreams of a maurader
now this living nightmare is my life and i'm the author
the blank pages scribe themselves under the moon
and now that summers done its the fall of our doom
