thank you Jesus for the feast you create,
thank you for the concrete and red tape.
praises be to a vengeful wrath, a path,
a sorry sight as tall buildings collapse.
i am in awe of the wonder, amazing,
the grace is gracious, its timeline spacious,
we are all a lit fuse, we are a picture disc,
we're typically not more than some silly shit.
and when you test a mountain, it will best you,
and he who laughs loudest is still a fool.
i hear a whisper, a melody, tell me:
do you think there is time enough yet to flee?
is there? is there time enough? is there time?

fanning flames
my wrath can't be contained
waking up in a daze
i'm amazed...
someone call a doctor
i'm fading like a receipt
disappearing ink in my veins
hold me under a UV
just to see if i'm still me x4
...the feasting priestess on linens screams...
a monster birthed by grief, it bleats a groan
a painful breath with heaving breast
she clutches her future to her chest;
it's cold and still.
the living will cower and bend like trees
under a raging wind,
gold can't save them from this
or force of will.

choose a side, make a decision
the moon is full the tension is high, we're in this
to settle scores, it's such a chore
an endless cycle of constant death and proxy wars.
north to south, their movement hampered
the terrain this day will be our greatest weapon
6 lines drawn, 6 walls of shields and spears
the pawns tremble desperate to swallow fear.
...
and when they come to wash the bodies away
they'll talk about how brave we fought on this day.
and when they come to cast the memory in bronze
they'll need to edit it all so it fits in the song.
""
they'll have to find a way to tell our wives and our moms.

chalk outline, now i'm
questioning all life's decisions, submission
to a higher plane or a lower one? tell me son:
hast thou ever taken his name in vain?
these bars are red hot, like the fire forged
like the pyre torched, fight the hire lords.
all wisdom a blanket, a blank script,
a blue pad you wish you had, it's so sad...
i bought this flow like it's DLC,
fuck the DRM. can't you tell
this nightmare is an empty pail?
i found the shell, kissed the waves, i'm blessed,
bent to stress like we were playing some chess.
i lost my best friend to a life of witchcraft, or so i
told the papers when them kids died, but why
would you bring a quill pen to the crossroads at dawn
then take it back like your word isn't bond?
like the handshake is wrong and the reflection is odd.

...Funny, isn't it... I was used by the Empire...
even had my thoughts ripped from me...
But here I am cooperating with the 'enemy'...
Never have i ever let a city survive
Who deigns to speak with such an insolent tone. I won’t
need an army to check this so-called
king’s mouth,
the banshee's driving, quick hit
pull up then a pistol whip... then i’m out.
Throwin the baby straight out with the bath
I need an abacus to count all this cash
Ending your world, executing the bash
I’ll build a monument to yr girlfriend’s ass.
You failed the command check, kid, yr squad scatters,
The ranks shatter, defenses get battered.
My flow it oozes out just like the last beat
Of your heart, The viscous syrup of your heat.
... a playlist on repeat.
