Inhale, Exit
[Hook]
Wake up in the morning need to leave I need to breathe
I light up or I chew a shroo’ I’m trying to flee reality
laying building blocks for breakfast like my life’s a lucid dream
loosen my mind just to get by wear a helmet when I sleep.
[Verse 1]
Ready or not, I’m waking up,
sun in my window, dreams interrupt,
can’t really face it, don’t want to front,
frozen in place facing first of the month,
frantically pacing the faster I run,
the further the others escape in the front,
I’m feeling numb, just wanna bum,
but the beat is my fruit so I’m going plumb dumb.
-
Got a plum rump, and the words kill like a fentanyl bump,
I drip sauce baby you could lap it all up,
I got ‘em going Labrador on my labia,
letters written write the world with my tongue,
when the real hurts my mind I just unplug.
-
Plug hits my line, like right just in time,
to twist up my pine, and it’s all love.
I pray to divine, I get lost in time, my thoughts labyrinthine, come take a stroll.
-
I wake up just facing things you could not solve,
my words like a solvent peel fake shit right off,
the myth of reality I’m not involved,
my life is a battery I am all charge.
-
Charge it to insanity, I’m no in charge,
they’re selling out souls for a ‘stang or a charger,
my vision for the world it is larger,
larger than lifelike, littered with scars.
-
Mufasa my body I’m trampled and trod, tradition I’m shaking it off,
thoughts and my body all breaking the law,
they banned it so they made it fun,
Methuselah wisdom I shoulder the burden even though I’m just twenty sum
[Hook]
Wake up in the morning need to leave I need to breathe
I light up or I chew a shroo’ I’m trying to flee reality
laying building blocks for breakfast like my life’s a lucid dream
loosen my mind just to get by wear a helmet when I sleep.
[Verse 2]
I’m too unkind too rewind
you could catch a fade on sight,
if you call me she or he,
I came to rewrite gender lines,
My life is mine to define,
drive or you’re on the wrong side,
I just picked a fate and hopped inside the track and made it mine
-
I can’t be chased while I’m running this race ‘cuz I go to places that make them afraid
I told them to pray these rappers say grace
but I stuff my face ‘cuz I just came to eat
-
Edible beddable flexible jelly roll
Let em know I’m the goat
Etymological
Breadable credible bettable better know each
time that you play me you pay me and cite ya quotes
-
Beam me up
on a balance beam steppin’ like a runway strut
Biles beat me to the gold
But I’m coming up
Going Roddy Balboa beat the box ‘til I’m number one
-
And I won’t come down,
Stay stuck in the clouds,
I stand out in crowds
My brand can’t be bought out
I can be sought out
I can be feared
But I just can’t be found
Tired (interlude)
My mind spinning like a tire
My stomach falling to the ground
I just wanna rub her like a tire
She said she like it when I come around
Shape of a tire
Circle close I had to cut it down
Til the moment I retire
Yeah you know It’s drip or drown
They never quite tire my attire got em tongue tied
Tyranny plus irony
The tyranny is inspired
Tired of monotony they follow me like piper pied
Placental elemental I leave tire tracks on beats
A placebo in a rental
Keep the fake shit far from me, I be placid and aggressive
Turning tire like between
And you better get the message
I’m too tired to repeat
Tirelessly
I am trying to be
The one in a million they waited to see
I get tired of fiends that dick riding for free
I’m tongue tied for weeks
Got your girl out here leakin’
Hotel Slippers
[Hook]
And we roll up every night
Just to make it to the morning (emphasize)
Pop an addy with the dawn
Just to keep myself from yawning
City after city I can never make a home
And where I lay my head is where the people put me on
[Verse 1]
I’m just trying to
write the rhymes I wanna rap to
Hungry happy sleepy
But you never call me bashful
Bastard of the bourgeoise
A balanced checkbook born to me
Ask me how my day has been
You know I’m saying cash full
-
Cast aside my rank and file
To taste the fat of life unbridled
The brighter side of suicide
To live a life while on full throttle
-
Throwing up at night
Because my brain is sick
While they stopping me in public
Cuz my name is lit
-
And the drugs help me speak a different language
And there really isn’t no one I can hang with
Sometimes I miss them niggas that I used to gang with
Link up now and we don’t speak the same language
-
Languish in the presence
Anguish is a blessing
Every day a wave
Ride it like its cresting
-
Suffering is a lesson
Not real just an impression
Practice living truly
Baby you just being tested
[Hook]
And we roll up every night
Just to make it to the morning (emphasize)
Pop an addy with the dawn
Just to keep myself from yawning
City after city I can never make a home
And where I lay my head is where people put me on
[Verse 2]
And we black up every night
Taking to the streets to fight
Yeah we yelling for our rights
Yeah the state becomes unraveled
-
They scan your shit
So block your eyes
Turn off your cell
And pass the mic
The people’s voice has become the loudest gavel
-
Galvanize the workers
Never give up lurking
Lupine how I’m running in the night
Ferris Bueller how I’m shirking
-
The shirtwaist fire
That’s Greenwich village
Where y’all work, live
Honor all the lives
That gave ya 9-5 perkses
-
Percolating penitentiary gates
Black like coffee grounds
Grounded but I’m caffeinated
Energy I burn them down
Bring em home
We all elated
Won’t stop making all this noise
Til we are all emancipated
-
They say that all my power in the present
I’m impatient
Racing to a moment that is vacant
I can’t stay still
Painting different poses on the grid of the matrix
I’ll leave this moment as a mark for when I made it
Blue (interlude)
I got many colored days
But I only wear blue faces
Shoes frost centigrade
Frozen fingers tying blue laces
Blue she leave me clues
And the answers always blue papers
Blue I’m deebie doo
You just blend in like blue man group
And I accrue the sky that’s through
Glass was blue but now it flew places
Flimsy for the floozies
I’m weak when they legs in two places
Place me on the pedestal
Erase me from the camera roll
I get in ya guts like Japetto
strap lets me go both modes
-
I’m in ghost mode, blowin’ ozone,
lookin for my super suit like I’m Frozone
beat needs thawing out after I go on
Meat needs thawing out ‘fore mama come home
And you know I like to spit like a llama
Got the ladies sweatin’ like a sauna
Eating up the pussy like lasagna
Cat fire, eat me need a lozenge
-
Fire me up can’t light up much
’cuz I’m drippin’ like a faucet water steam to the touch
’cuz my dreams are like gas
Fill the room or the structure
And my ego a balloon that no one can puncture
Punctual I’m right on time and nothing’s in my way
Undulate I bend my life like wind and water, call that feng shui
Horizontal Shadowboxing
[Hook]
Back this, you can’t unpack this
Life come hit
Leave me with a fat lip
Tragic, you cannot trash this
Being too aware‘ll melt ya mind
Like some plastic
[Verse 1]
I stay awake and pray today that I don’t wake up dead
A funeral is when I wash my face and then I brush my head
My eyes flick open, there goes hope then
And here comes the dread
I’m stuck between future anxieties and past regret
-
Rugrats was wild to me Angelica she made me bad
Bad omens follow me all coming
In the shape of men
Better to fall asleep than stay awake in loneliness
My only hollow teeth are pointy ‘cuz I’m venomous
-
Veni vidi vici I said once I come I’m here to stay
Ya girl she gotta peachy and I’m betting that I make her spray
You hoes can’t even reach me like Mutumbo playing keep away
I’m with the Gullah Geechee
Tracing blackness to a deeper place
-
Place me in the present and
I’ll show the ever present face
Precious is the peasant
Plebeian and then the third estate
Esteem the resurrection of bars that make you stop and think
If you truly understand it
Then you probably can’t sleep a wink
[Hook]
Back this, you can’t unpack this
Life come hit
Leave me with a fat lip
Tragic, you cannot trash this
Being too aware‘ll melt ya mind
Like some plastic
[Verse 2]
I’m getting bored
I wanna see a new color
meet me in the mirror
So that we can French kiss each other
-
I get absorbed
In fantasies and social feeds and chasing every sweet release
The path they laid
Don’t meet my needs
-
Bottle me in bubble wrap
I’m living in a fragile state
The mental and the country
I don’t know which one is more unstable
-
My mind expanding
Need a staple hold my head together No faith in voting
The shit is trash and it’s not getting better
-
Leave me alone I can’t get caught up in the helter skelter
Whole world’s going crazy
I just turn to the beat for shelter
You wanna share my shelter?
Medusa Oblongata
[Hook]
Medusa Oblongata
I’m coming for your father
I drain the lambs of their blood
I sacrifice the slaughter
Medusa oblongata
The earth is getting hotter
Our existence intertwined
And our souls are soldered
[Verse 1]
Rely on one another
But can’t stop getting over
No dreams of getting older
Tragedies in every corner
-
The shoreline getting closer
The Arctic should be colder
When it’s all over
can’t go to sleep with my diploma
-
And diplomacy is just
Two neoliberals shaking hands
Shaking down the trees and rivers
Plundering by violence
-
And I’m barely hanging on
So I’m breaking down grams
Had to move back to from China
Just to say goodbye to grams
-
And the blood on the leaves
Waters the roots of the fam tree
I’m on the beat accidentally incanting
My ancestry has handled me handsomely Sheltered me covered me pampered me
Prayerfully thankfully guided me cried with me
Lie on beats I am the pride of greens
Prions eat
And I do too
We make ya mind a meal for two
[Hook]
Medusa Oblongata
I’m coming for your father
I drain the lambs of their blood
I sacrifice the slaughter
Medusa oblongata
The earth is getting hotter
Our existence intertwined
And our souls are soldered
[Verse 2]
Throwing bones casting old lots
Sellers blocks preserved as public plots
I sent a shock
Give me a lock
Some oil
And a stick of cinnamon
My skin is coated in the glow of winning while I’m sitting in
Royal ice cream
Greensboro, that’s my city, kin,
Uncle Jimmy held it down
We was even rebels then
Uh
My people stay ignited
Issa powder keg
Came to light it
Establishment
I came to fight it
Weed and gay sex
Make me delighted
Light it up I’m stealing fool’s gold
I’m a pyro pyrite pirate
Don’t know how many scripts I flipped
Flappin’ my lips I be shooting from the hip
I spit don’t get caught in my sights
My planet way too sci fi
You can’t touch down only drive by
Only thing I won’t turn is a blind eye
Sleepy (interlude)
Envy in my eyes
Green eyed monster
Weighs heavy on my eyelids
When I sleep they bury emeralds
Dragon, dragon, dragon,
I’m just dragging it out
I live for fire breathing kisses
Morning breath in your mouth
Your time card platinum with no limits
That’s precious in any amount
Mount me girl and I’ll just fly you around
But doubt me and ya fall to the ground
Let me glisten in your waters impertinent
Pearl you like smoke
With my curled lips
Pursed just to give you a kiss
Purled like tight stitches
Pearl your clamshell hinges
I crack open
With a smile
Just to get to know ya
As we laugh and roll the doja
Can I walk your ass back from Black Panther rifle practice?
I sleep inside my rival
My ribosomes are stifled
Stifle my inner critic
This world is too arthritic
Too stiff
Can’t stand the test
We get in hourglass sand
Buried up to our necks
Can’t ever rest
We zombie stressed
Living undead
She dripping sauce all while I eat her flesh
Just leave the rest
Dream Yoga
[Hook]
I had a dream I was floating
Then I came down it was hopeless
Clouds where my head makes my home in
Little Prince missing his star I’m so lonely
My chosen path is unfolding
Freedom has poisoned the old me
I learn the most from the plants
I am just moving towards the light so slowly
[Verse 1]
Understanding that my body is the universe
it should never hurt to go outside
An inversion serves a purpose
Put your head down towards the surface
Different angles really open up your eyes
-
I’m put here for a reason
It’s my season
I’m believing in realities constructed in my mind
Escape the ivory tower I’m Rapunzel
Nappy hair like ivy vines
I rewind I waste time
I defy gender lines
Jezebel was my crime
I raise hell in the night
I cape for worker’s rights
I am setting my sights
-
This body just a rental
I’m composed of elementals
There’s fire in my lungs
Ice water in my blood
Air in my head
And I’m made of mud
A high status statue of solid stature
I’m setting the statutes
I lay down the law
At the end of the day
Give it up to Allah
[Hook]
Medusa Oblongata
I’m coming for your father
I drain the lambs of their blood
I sacrifice the slaughter
Medusa oblongata
The earth is getting hotter
Our existence intertwined
And our souls are soldered
[Verse 2]
So greedy for love I can’t stand it
I get it then I cannot handle it
I always vandal it
My body count, scandalous
-
Starving for love
I’m panhandling
Holding my hand out for
Someone, have we met?
Please handle me gently
Can’t handle more regrets
I hit graduation then started to regress
-
Regretfully, I’m addicted to speed
I mean the motion of time to me is obsolete
Can’t stay still for long I have ADHD
Stands for addicted to these hoes disease
Discovered my vices no longer release
I discovered that I need more from reality
-
I mean good head and good weed, I’m easy to please
I just wish that all this shit ain’t come with taxes and fees
Time the people took the system brought it down to its knees
