Lyrics

Distorted Prose

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Broke stride as last of men realized their deep deceit.

This troubling advance of half-assed crews crowd these streets.

Never mind of who I am, son, just listen when I speak

Broken paragraphs hold wrath of a hundred million deep.

Bleak circumstance led masses to only want to dance

A bastard child of Reaganomics posed in a B-Boy stance

Make our leaders play minstrel, Left with none to lead our people.

How the fuck am I gonna shake your hand, when we never been seen as equals?

Deemed evil by those housed in church steeples.

False prophets read backwards from broken tablets to the feeble,

I seen you!

Regurgitate their lies.

I'll bide my time with scrolls and ancient's wine.

Heady brew left mark on this hazy scribe.

If stars align I suppose even the blind will see,

How they stole our last voice, corrupted culture into industry.

Few minutes remain,

A tame soul wanders wild when it dreams.

Mine are filled with ill visions of soot and dope fiends.

These slit wrists won't rest till I spill these last drops.

Tarnished skin only sin when I awoke on sidewalk.

Seen your movements through peripheral

Remain same individual.

When a man's viewed as criminal to act animal is logical.

Audible tones honed to hold substance

Form sentence

Poor reluctant poet, speak prose

Refuse to beg repentance

Reluctant poet speak prose

Incite our peoples

We got raked through those coals

Once the truth was divulged.

Conscience calls thoughts subliminal

Actions all cyclical

Deplorable descendants of men depressed clinical.

Answers seem visible when visionless

Useless souls fold under pressure like hands pray to false Jesus.

Inadequate adversaries advance awkwardly.

Anger expressed outwardly

Causes ranks to break amongst these frail MC's.

Your fictional tales told with conviction.

Concise concepts once written enter bloodstream

since this inks been forbidden.

Distorted poet, speak prose

Incite our peoples

We got raked over coals

But the truth's still untold.

Meaning lost to these zealots

Prefer bullets to ballots

Watch the rich sip from chalice

As these eyes fill with malice

Peasant hands remain callous

as our days retain darkness

I swallow razor blades to keep my vocal cords sharpened.

Morbid mixture of mistrust and anger paints picture.

Perception now blurred words slurred to form scripture.

These sullen souls misinformed

Storm gates of stronghold

Strange fate that I chose

Morbid poet speak prose.

Tattered voices arose

Red Blood written on scroll

Escapes throat an ill flow

For my violence atoned.

Modest thoughts monotone

Infant MC's play grown

Found them hung in hallways

from cords on microphones
