CONCEPT OF I ALL (free) 02:44
brain trapped in the basin body trapped in the basement skull smashes the pavement fear bashes my face in i know it's had to cope with my past i'm mr. antisocial sociopath with a soul full of wrath the apple falls close to the tree? not a clue my apple was robbed by serpents and crushed to molecules i've accepted my role as the punching bag of able-bodied creatures leaving with crippled features i all (8x) i all, the concept of my construction / prepare for my inevitable destruction (4x) no matter what i do i can't get the advantage while other humans gather loot, plan, and manage the townsfolk can cause mayhem before they start leaving but savan depaul is the one that's always bleeding doesn't help me that my conversations make me suspect socializing is an alien subject the average nigga chats and whatnot with their team i'm locked in the attic man and i'm bursting at the seams i'm a loser man, so why don't you kill me? but thanks to my blood spurts, your new shirts will be filthy who said that life's a beautiful woman? no a statement truer to me, that bitch was medusa survival's the goal in this homicidal curriculum i see hardships in life, i'm predicting em i all (8x) i all, the concept of my construction/prepare for my inevitable destruction (4x) hanging in your house the interplanetary vagabond stomping through this wasteland formulating polyrhythms and shocking systems dropping amoxicillin i have no platinum plaques that i've got from chilling you can't make me leave the human race because i guarantee the angel of death will take my place i all (16x) i all, the concept of my construction/prepare for my inevitable destruction (4x)

PSYCHOSIS (free) 03:37
In the days since psychosis became our ruler... Our brains break through the lobotomy sutures As our demons shoot the medulla oblongata This planet, dear ruler, cannot stop ya Man is powerless to your archaic ways Homo sapiens is staying dazed No need for saving face But our saving grace (our minds) have been taken over by parasitic soldiers Our hope has exited Along with sanity We now war with each other, losing our humanity Formation of factions leads to violence upon the premises You are maleficent but essential, and I'm sure not forgetting it You are the spectre that commands the subconscious We need to stop this It's toxic The fumes are noxious But insanity is a necessary sickness to rock with And I am its holy prophet Manic thoughts (clock it) Our cerebellums succumb to lack of oxygen Loss of consciousness Our minds are now our enemies, and Savan assists We need to let go- psychosis is destined to jockey this invasion of minds causing the apocalypse Lord Insanity stands over all of us like a monolith And you better believe that he is watching this Instantaneously, begin my ascension The longing of serenity became my obsession I am floating so ever silently to the next dimension Audience, introducing the evil spirit prevention I turn from demigod to supreme being in an instant To sin and iniquity I have become resistant I'm watching the planet revolve in space Running the eternal gambit in place and still winning the race I will now commence levitation to that beautiful nation And their golden chariots will be waiting Despite the wars that they'll be in with Satan This is the final step to Ammutseba's deification Yes, just accept (y)our inevitable extinction Closer to the edge of the cliff we are inching Makes my skeleton stiff just thinking... All hail psychosis, the ruler of all

ACID RAIN (free) 03:50
[Hook] (2x) Potable hydrogen cyanide and hydrosulfuric acid Chemical proof that ominpotent gods are bastards All fall down- the water causes necrosis The rain used to give life, now it controls it [Verse 1] The pipe dream by 19 was to emerge from the cavern And ingest the finest of meats inside the tavern Until the burning solvents of God stop pouring on his experiments I'll be feeling delirious The dear(deer) have been dissolved to bone fragments and bile Whether I can weather the acid water so vile It rains Supreme hell droplets cause welt problems Boils the flesh of mortal man and skin swells often Burning silhouettes cry to the doves Who also melted to nothingness with no sight of the love Many men beg for mercy but clouds don't give a damn, dog They're all infected with smog and adulterous tendencies Their enemies are all who breathe and thrive So they shoot us down until none longer survive Corrosive potions become an omen and token of choking Suffering present and fear it is evoking [Hook](2x) [Verse 2] Parasitic tendencies are on display The strongest man and child are scorned The marks of God's caustic scourge are readily adorned Killer solvents on the loose Grab the noose Nature has become unnecessarily obtuse The skies don't distinguish between creatures Causing pain and seizures Ending leisure Giving men Two-Face's features Roll with a crew deeper than the mafia- you'll end up digested bone You can't stop this by wettin' chrome Hear the metronome Tick tock Tick tock Drip drop Will it stop? Drip drop Merciful it's not Drip drop Kids stop Limbs rot Tick tock Tick tock Merciful it's not Will it stop? Drip drop Drip drop It will not stop Kids stop Lives will stop, wives will drop Tick, tick, tick... [Hook](2x)

[Verse 1] Dashing thru a metropolis, he was chosen No longer frozen in awe- their falls are omens They're after him- hear the patter on gravel Sprinting in the plaza, past the market, thru the gala Only incurring the wrath of the illiterate water enthusiasts He's losing this race against the moodiest mob he's ever witnessed O well, business is still business As he leaps over various vehicles He reflects upon his statements about being unbeatable Sprinting so silently, Savan speeds past the stampede Damn these shoes are nearly torn to the seams, but he must hurry Before the puddles eat him to bone in a corrosive flurry Mother Nature's chemicals spray to melt thru his fades if he doesn't end it today, his end is today Taking shelter under an outcrop, he made it If he'd been slower, his body and soul would be separated Chrous (2x) Running thru rain shouldn't burn this much Liquid arrows falling, solvents, and such [Verse 2] Hours and hours pass Acid rain grounds my path Drowning in showered bath The clouds will now spout their wrath The atmosphere took umbrage with our civilization So the clouds brought unto us annihilation A feud with cellular bodies and organic matter Descend, maim, murder, and then splatter The clouds' tears slice thru crowds like the blade of Ronin Hydrosulfuric rain forcing bodies open I feel sorry for all the victims of the rain This ungodly assault is causing lots of pain Disfigure spines Cripple some minds Rip into lines The missiles of lies disfigure spines Bombard our craniums and cause necrosis The rain used to give life, but now it controls it Murderous solvents divebomb the species Until every poor soul is shattered to pieces [Chorus](2x) [Bridge] (2x) Widespread emergency Sending all to the infirmary Urgently Can we get emergency? We all need the infirmary [Chorus](4x) [Outro] Drop the cauldron

[Hook] Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Aiyo, aiyo [Verse 1] Truly indecipherable, no save face Back to inner fantasies, make haste Every conflict, and every battle Every fight on granulated gravel Every day that the ass make me babble To the chattel, I ain’t the chattel [Hook] Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Aiyo, aiyo Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Aiyo, aiyo [Verse 2] Welcome to the home of the First World problem and the burnt bridge And the educational institution of ram head worship Those who sell drugs aren't classified as gangs Socialization make me feel twenty clicks outside Da Nang The place where IG blocking can really get to a person And your personality is dictated by If we inhabit a cyberpunk boondock metropolis It would justify my peers getting on their Jeffrey Dahmer shit My temporary coworkers’ banter is too torturing So much so I’m down to snatch me a DeLorean Peel off, gather my wampum, get out of Dodge If I hear you say turn up again I’ll blow your scalp clean off [Hook] Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Aiyo, aiyo Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Rev booth destructo I do it with gusto Aiyo, aiyo

DEATH OF THE MOTH (free) 02:52
A normal day, nectar’s taste intoxicates me I zoom past a hive- they’ve gotta hate me Taking a shortcut through the brush I don’t have to lie I’m telling you this story in my afterlife We our kind have our sisters and brothers Who live, drink, reproduce, and die just like the others My case was no exception So sit down and listen to this tale told from my perspective Me and my mates have drinks at the local stigma Petals are our barstools- wait for the nectar to hit ya I leave the spot and bid my sisters ado My girl’s kids are hungry- gotta get there soon As I notice the skies above, that shade of blue Wait...my ankle...what’s this!...oh dear... Lord, that’s a wolf to me but a pest to you My leg and thorax, all ensnared in her silky matrix of death (gasp) Taking a breath I want to fly away, but I’m trapped My killer crawls forth without repentance In this sentence, I’d like to mention of her hunger and rage So I’m gonna meet my maker When she tests my flavor, I’ll rejoin the insect savior In the equation of life, this is a subtraction Here’s my reaction to being held captive by an arachnid I’m frightened- I see her out of the corner of my compound eyes For flying too close, I’ve been chosen as the predator’s prize I’m waiting for a bird to swoop in or another miracle Antennae slowly twitching, air pumping through spiracles I wonder if the afterlife is ethereal I’ll find out when my killer uses her digestive material A fang in the abdomen, this is the end Farewell to my friends The spider’s leg bends around my carapace Tearing it- ah! you derelict I’m fading...loss...of cousciouness...needy of oxygen Leaking...venom...I’m...gone and it’s...the moth...I’m coming... Gone to the obelisk of light.... Those lights go off and then on and then on and then... Gone...

[Verse] There’s a wickedness in essentialism Erasure of divinity Slalom between MF Slalom between MF Catch a quick dose of lucidity We deconstructing in the mythos Treaties fucked from a ship post Nuclear familial hardly My broken state smacks matter of Hardy A holy nuisance, Ed Hardy Phobias can pollute and snatch autarky Rebels spit at your lap dogs, I'm acting barky You don’t know what I’d do for a plate of calamari Old Su Wu shit, old boy going through shit Market shopping, mad I drag the brody through it Don’t fret, dawg, I’m tryna find the prawns with the sweetest juices We the loosest, peep the newest, freak the new shit Your rose colored glasses fogged up, looking the pearliest On some "status quo’s perfect" shit Purring off a Percocet Got demons to excise Letting rap put a cap on your sex life Misquoted Vordul, strive and live live You reify strife, but you forget life? Memory dead wiped Strange echoes out your rostrum but how you get pipe, huh I got the nostrum and it’s dead tight Left swipe at the face of a date rapist With a Mac, I ain’t the mack, but I be catching the fade quick Action I’m taking That dastardly framing, yeah, it’s actual hatred See not as process but as object to be captured or taken See not as process but as object to be captured or taken [Hook] I slalom between M and F Scream at top of my lungs I slalom between M and F Have to sire the young I slalom between M and F Still discharging blood I slalom between M and F Only have my own love I slalom between M and F Scream at top of my lungs I slalom between M and F Have to sire you young I slalom between M and F Still discharging blood I slalom between M and F Only have my own love

COLIN'S EULOGY (free) 02:57
[Intro] A poem for my fallen comrade A poem for a fellow MC For the organism so named Colean A victim of my scimitar Another unfortunate crippled star... [Verse 1] He longed for the recognition and fame that showered upon his contemporaries He never worried about the possibility of obscurity So nervously he worried We pondered that his insecurities hurried his demise The cries of the Aryan devil, blaring in treble Colean ingested codeine in the wake of his racing victories Taking 18 Xanax and blazing the J with peeps He lived life as if tomorrow never was spawned But lost contact with his soul upon the end of the dawn Some called him incompetent, or a moronic peon But he stayed somewhat prominent if not dominant He always looked out for his ragtag team of sprinting vagabond trespassers Even if he took the form of a plastic actor with the facade of the baddest rapper Gastric acid manufactured because of psychoactive tablets plastered and attached to his abdomen He happily lived his days in a manner similar to this Until he stupidly decided to kick me a diss Desecrating what the Scatterbrain had imbued with knowledge Now the God wailed on Olympus for your local omnipotent to inhibit his mission And summon all neurosyphilis-afflicted triple sixers to dime and nickel this stripling Until he faded from existence... [Hook] So bow your heads for the child on ecstasy lying next to me And don’t end up like him So bow your heads for the child on ecstasy lying next to me And don’t end up like him [Verse 2] I remember his joyous mood Born out of wedlock to a vocal booth Wanted to own the moon But became the groom to a tomb close to you I jested in a callout Added varnish to the paint And harnessed the restraints to ensure I didn’t cross the line But, God was I misdirected Interjecting swift as ever, the young blonde spoke And a disgusting, ignorance-encrusted, corrupted substance erupted from his tongue And he needed a comeuppance The youthful blasphemer wanted to curse the archbishop So I threw him off the roof and he became our Bishop [Hook] So bow your heads for the child on ecstasy lying next to me And don’t end up like him So bow your heads for the child on ecstasy lying next to me And don’t end up like him So bow your heads for the child on ecstasy lying next to me And don’t end up like him So bow your heads for the child on ecstasy lying next to me And don’t end up like him

[Intro: Seven Poz] I bear witness that there is no god but Allah... And I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger... [Hook: Seven Poz] Half of ya teams follow the queen bee The other half is staying straight up on the moves to the key [Bridge: Savan DePaul] My transit into foolin’ life begins Becoming of a man destined to beckon to government’s whims Gone be the days of innocence and schools of playing kids Welcome the early mornings of rude awakenings [Verse 1: Savan DePaul] You’re grown now Supply grown man bars to the crowd Only lounge around and do nothing when you’re around? A world of the compulsory now opens Pros and cons in the moment Part of me longs for the components Pay them- get that work or else imbalance Stack your cash, behave, and don’t think with your phallus Morph into a calloused veteran and raise kids for war As well as praise surveillance and consume the flames so raging In my psyche In my psyche I sight thee Grown man bars- oh that’s something I gotta deal with now That’s something I gotta deal with now [Hook: Seven Poz] [Bridge: Savan DePaul] My transit into foolin’ life begins Becoming of a man destined to beckon to government’s whims Gone be the days of innocence and schools of playing kids Welcome the early mornings of rude awakenings [Verse 2: Savan DePaul] Eighteen years in the making, I’ve mastered hate crops Collecting well-deserved guap when Acid Rain drops And spilling onto the populace with acid raindrops Metamorphose into a beast- a natural Aesop No longer a kid with a tendency to lacerate lots I'm an adult who's now forced to pack away Glocks Far removed from the days of master/slave crops I've learned a trove of lessons cause I have to make guap Your childhood is merely kindle for elders to spark Submit to Abrahamic god, the ultimate patriarch Your childhood is merely kindle for elders to spark Submit to Abrahamic god, the ultimate patriarch Uh, wait... [Hook: Seven Poz & Savan DePaul] [Outro: Seven Poz] Check that out, yo Seven comin' at you from the '97, so listen Bismallah

[Verse] Beautiful memories Beautiful memories Beautiful memories Splendor presented and represented I meant it I need the reverence What have you against a monster? My mantra I conjured- die stronger I played the gambit Now Imma leave the planet I'll depart now I'll refrain from showing my art now So on and so on This marks the end of my saga With a sound goodbye, I play it out for the drama And cast out the trauma And cast out the trauma, come on, ayy [Outro] This has been Acid Rain
