lyrics
He knew I wouldn't sell, but he threw me down that well, anyway. Pennies say they're lucky, but plenty of major shuck-n-jive'ers thrust their lives down nickle mines willingly for nothing but Jordans and more skin, exorbitant portions of pie, ornamental fortunes, and lies. I've been through older forest many times. Unadorned portraits of sorcerers scorned by their subordinates. I set my clock by the sun's reflection in a hawk's eye. I walk right through lies like camel thru needle eye. Other feeble rhymes fly like fish. My, I wish I could decipher the sky and apply it to this. I have more question marks than intelligent sparks. I tell it in part through eloquent barks, breakbeats, baselines, irrelevant art. Embellished skeleton, drums hang like moss between heaven and hell again. The land of Gangbangers vs. mic frauds. Seared duck in a light sauce when I iron chef a tired recipe of a pork rapper. I pan fry 'em and get higher than Miles and Gillespie. I got a mic, a knife, a fork, and a napkin when I iron chef a pork rapper. My I is not pod. My shirt is not me. I fry without lard, I'm beef and swine free, you suckas!
Manticore vs. the Kraken. KILL.
Mercury vs. Mars. Kill. Kill.
Knives vs. poison. Kill.
Me vs. death. KILL.
Manticore vs. the Kraken. 400 hundred gallons of slick blue blood. Stay perfectly still, prying out the eyes of the kill. Loch Ness death match. The Sphinx vs. Easter Island. A thousand cubic yards of violence turns bones to stone, to dust. Clones get thrown and rushed. Mercury vs. Mars. Shoot the spy. Tarkus turned the truth to lies, turned your brain into the birth of flies, turns violence to genocide. Knives vs. poison. Good luck in the gauntlet. The voices of the slaughtered, hazardous like Satan's disco. 400 gallons of slick blue blood. Brace yourself for the flood.
Manticore vs. the Kraken. KILL.
Mercury vs. Mars. Kill. Kill.
Knives vs. poison. Kill.
Me vs. death. KILL.
