[scratches: dj afar]
[intro]
once you get to the level of this indescribable word, what you’re talking about is the subconscious mind. what you’re trying to get past is your conscious mind. your conscious mind understands words like “run,” “stop,” “scat,” “that,” and “jack.” once you put the intention into your sentence…
[verse 1: l.i.f.e. long and kwest]
[l.i.f.e. long]
orangutan monsoon, this be guerilla warfare
s.o.s., call for backup, light up the flares
fluorescent, iridescent, halogen turnt on mechanisms
under construction, field technician getting my hands dirty
smart beast from the lagoon dark, murky, still
doing this true-school, and i’m not hundred percentile
in tune, in sync, in full effect, in
style
[kwest]
now you will all stand in awe, applaud, and laud
the king of strings and lord of chords
fraud emcees get bored like boards when i’m bored. cypher
sniper putting you fools out of your misery, so bring your
a-game or pick a b.c. date because you’re history
who done it? hah, son, it ain’t no mystery. i’m not that big
but daddy able to k!ll brothers like kane/cain, so address me as mr. c
hmm, pick a b.c. date ‘cause you’re history. big daddy kane/cain
mr. c. now tell me: who really f-cking with this emcee?

[kwest]
stay in your
lane, lames. you got no drive, you’re on the p-ssenger side
i’m on the pharcyde, “p-ssin’ you by.” been a minute
since you benefitted from someone bending sentences, so i’m putting on
a clinic for critics and naysayers. say prayers
liable to have you checking bibles, trying to find books of revelations
stating the date of my coming—rather, i’m coming for the second time
my jaw drops clorox, disinfecting minds, cleansing senses
sent from iphones and pens of those who pretend to be divine
[l.i.f.e. long]
stand inside
the line the fire and get burnt on a stick
over flames like rotisserie turnt. earn respect
get my weight up in bars, veteran dues paid through
bruises and scars, synchronized squad infiltrate
forces—it’s all-out war. art the architect ill-strating
that uncut raw, artist like basquiat, my art
is abstract, krylon words on paper
verbal graff throw-ups with feelings on wax
