about

Previously unreleased track from the Perfect Little Angels sessions.

lyrics

Not content to inherit irrelevance I think hip-hop:
Needs more intelligence
Change the format, try new experiments. Quit chasing dead ends
And deader presidents
converted my residence into a place where i can make new developments
no precedent
exit my presence when I
Represent
Faithless
Sounding like I'm heaven sent

I've never had faith before
Fate is fake, why do we adore the image?
Like what's in store is worth the wait if you receive the privilege
We could wax poetic more conformist debate
But your rhetoric is vintage
That pale horse proposition cannot device the villagers
We already sacrificed tradition
The code written for our children
Says don't believe your mind, heart or vision
Relieved of their ambitions
So they don't notice that the world we live in is one big prison
And if the kid''s unfit for the mission
Give him more prescriptions
Clinical nutrition
Life is a gift, the only thing given
The sum total of which is worth less than a pot to piss in
Some sinner's seek Heaven's admission
Spend their whole lives trying to be forgiven
Even if they found a gate there'd be no way to get in
We're quick to forget history
This isn't existence's definition
Just an accurate description of its mystery

I'm a Newport fiend
Life's too short
Abort the scene
Forget the past
Ignore your dreams
The more I breathe
The more it seems like
My attributes are actually acid, right?
Yeah, this hella pessimistic fat basterd spit it tight
I been
goin in ass backwards for like the past nines nights
burn bright earn hype learn to love the lime light
Leave earth come back try to find life
look in my eyes when I'm done you'd think I died twice
time's up
and time was valuable
Cold as ice
and half as casual
BK the actual manic
gimmie hand claps
for the silly raps packed with practical facts
that's fuckin magic
On the main line aim tactical
Harder a cracked rock I be smackin you
ooh thats tragic like human trafficking
mixed with graphic slapstick
you ain't got half the practice
that whack shit's fruitier then a bitch's chapstick
believe that or seek action
come back when you've got half a fraction
I diss satisfaction
hack you up like allergic reaction
my head spins when i lack traction
pack up you bargain bin has been
i had sinned with women
cause i'm conditioned
did not pledge allegiance to the devil
I'm a One man joy division
Now sit back and watch the ruins of a fallen empire glisten
listen
