Hook Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Gone is the illusion, the wall is crushed The world talks shit, but when you call its bluff Then Gone is the illusion the wall is crushed Verse1 More than the illusion I was pumpkin heads cousin niggas round this town over here pushing my buttons Gimmie daps always act like they never fronting Always open up they mouth and got to say something He too old to rock the mic so why he still spitting? Well listen up and lemme bring something to your attention That collabo with that MC you always been wishing That got turned down before he even gave it a listen He’s the same age as me so who the fuck you think you tricking This was never about age you been jocking for position You’d open your ass and let’em stick his dick in If it was filled with bacteria from lack of circumcision Your music is fucking garbage and not worth a single listen! You’re worse than parsons blvd Kennedy fried chicken If you can’t take the heat then get the fuck up out my kitchen Bitch don’t you listen, Bitch don’t you listen! Hook Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Gone is the illusion, the wall is crushed The world talks shit, but when you call its bluff Then Gone is the illusion the wall is crushed Verse 2 Is it my entitlement things aren’t making sense to me? Or are my peers Casey and my name is Kaylee Anthony Y’all killing me but telling me y’all forever love me Like Whitney post eulogy y’all shove it right in front of me But when I throw a show there’s nobodies there in front of me Gone is the illusion maybe I’m going crazy There’s a fate that no man is ever exempt Is that familiarity breeds whole lots of contempt Y’all see so much of me my presence is predictable I use one of magics principles completely go invisible Gone is the illusion I know what really happened It’s me and always has been this lack of taking action like mattel I thought I gave it all I has bro not knowing down this rabbit hole I have much deeper to go I’ll be damned If I become a crab in a bucket Clawing my to a glass ceiling just so I can touch it Verse 3 If this were draft 2003, I’m Carmelo Anthony With Wade, Bosh, and Lebron three champs arm & arm Ring fast ramadan seems a suit I have on Skingraph third degree burns wanna play with me? No fucking losses when I play on NFL gameday Awful sounds when I turn muscle bound from skin & Bones Sasquatch tear apart trailer parks and suburban homes Death adder gladiator God of this game of thrones Theres a difference between me & you swerving tracks and hitting cones Exceptional ability EA sports I’m in the game Hercules your atrophied I’m done with you lames Gone is the illusion Dean I let go of it! Because grudges only hurt the persons who holding it Like this rapper I saw at Santos Party house Drunk rapping bitter and burnt the fuck out Spitting on himself and couldn’t get his words out! Not me I ride til the wheels fall off then hit a ditch fly through the windshield then my skull will split Survive a vegetative state my limbs and hands will twitch and use sign language so the deaf can feel me spit!!

Lionheart 03:18
Verse 1 Gimmie your best shot pal I can take it! Heart got strong from people trying to break it! Pardon my tease I wear my heart on my sleeve I rather move than freeze give up & cop pleas an who are these niggas to ever judge me!? You were never around when my chips were down I was the only person who lifted me off that ground an if I ain’t winning then I go down swinging I can take a beating & keep on ticking try to push me away and take my position Your bones will snap so good luck with benching So if you ain’t here to put a smile on my face put money in my pocket and reach new landscapes The bulk of my time don’t you dare waste Step to the side I got moves to make Verse 2 In the scheme of things, the punchline is real simple What - don’t - kill- you- makes- you crippled What don’t kill me makes me stronger Scientists use my white blood cells on viral monsters I ain’t talking thermals when I say your under armour when you make as much sense as an igloo in china an a neighborhood with a curfew and a all night diner If you think I should settle for less an expire an be miserable like you a coward & a liar I got a thick skin like metal plating with padding like line men in gear in the off season charged with unnecessary roughness & brutal beatings That’ll get me banned like odd future from New Zealand My will is strong! My pride is beaming! Your will is weak, your pride is peeling My heart larger than a water bed hit’n a muthafucking ceiling! Verse 3 I’m a warlock with words the way I split halves Off top the head or pen game Witch-craft? I wasn’t always that nice I had to bust ass Like a freshman fighting 8th graders for his bus pass Ain’t nothing like being on stage in front of a rough crowd They could hate my guts tell me quit but I’m too proud Salt in my wounds but it made me better Went home mead notebook on the dresser I won’t be denied or bow down to the pressure Your boyfriends only better than me in your dreams hes only recognized because of a marketing team but I want it more with or without the machine I’m the last man standing might as well climb to the top I’ve seen artists lose it all and go back to the block I’ve endured a lot where most would have stopped But I pick up momentum like a fucking juggernaut! Verse 4 I’m cut from an art form born through renegades I’ll stand my ground on George Zimmermans grave Channelling the spirits of African slaves Facing the adversity of dogs & riot brigades My heart is a vibrant torch lit flame That guides me through the darkness, where I was born like Bane I move in silence like the “D” in Djangos name when constructing the framework of my game I ain’t talking angry birds in the hood tossed in there lane Ignored like kurds slaughtered by Saddam Hussein I mean having the courage of expressing my range That reaches further than peaks, valleys, & groves Deciphers prophecy in books, numbers, & codes Stripped more bare than beauties in burlesque shows Leave fans screaming like Yasiin Bey with tubes up his nose

Verse 1 intro “You know what you should have in common with Hunter S. Thompson, Ernest Hemingway, and Kurt Cobain? It ain’t talent, should blow your brains out you Dumb. Smart. Nigga”! Hook My friends say I'm smarter than Them. Smarter than my friends ooooh. So how come I'm not making their ends? Their ennnnnds They tell me I have everything, because I am aaaa king! So why do I still feel like I got nothing? Nothing, nothiiing. ... Verse 1 I feel dangerously vulnerable, when I write songs like this I feel like I’ll be judged, then hung for the shit Because long as I’ve existed I won’t let people get close I find myself alone, living life as a ghost Can you blame me?! I mean I love living life But there are moments I wish I have had my memory wiped I’m no angel with its wings clipped within my own right I’ve burned so many bridges with such tremendous force You’d think I was a monster a living human torch That wedged a gap bigger between life & corpse I hurt the ones that I love, never the ones that deserve it It’s enough to curse myself and start rethinking my purpose My impulsiveness is like a fucking disease motivated by the need to quench the thirst of my greed Jumped to conclusions with a short burst of speed My lack of self control has left scars that always seem to bleed Verse 2 intro You blinder than a muthafuckah! Can’t see shit to be shit! Do us all a favor, just walk off a roof you Dumb. Smart. Nigga! Hook My friends say I'm smarter than Them. Smarter than my friends ooooh. So how come I'm not making their ends? Their ennnnnds They tell me I have everything, because I am aaaa king! Why do I still feel like I got nothing? Nothing, nothiiing. ... Verse 2 Because I had perspectives different from the rest My friends believed that I was destined for success I suck at handling the stress rehearsals never dressed subjected to the con I’m not fit to take the quest But if I saw what others saw I’d be without the mess But I’ve been told so many times that I ain’t worth shit I’m ashamed to say a part of me started to believe in it I’ve been told I’ve made things into more than what they are Will I be old & gray, sitting at a bar drunk & telling stories, about a falling star? not playing with a full deck the joker in the cards delusions of the slander, old habits die hard I’ve hit rock bottom is escaping so bizarre? I’ve walked many miles more than ones put on a car I’ve slept on a beach without a home near or far you dumb smart nigga, or whoever you are……… Verse 3 intro Nigga you can’t tell your right from your left, what’s real or what’s fake, you ain’t good for nothing you Dumb. Smart. Nigga! Hook My friends say I'm smarter than Them. Smarter than my friends ooooh. So how come I'm not making their ends? Their ennnnnds They tell me I have everything, because I am aaaa king! So why do I still feel like I got nothing? Nothing, nothiiing. ... Verse3 Devils in the details, angels in executing My brain is fried, with my impulses electrocuting A retina scan for the mind keeping my eyes open Mass produce adrenaline keeping my drive potent I’m not a dumb smart nigga! I'm dumb smart nigga! ! When I Iearned Jiu Jitsu they teach discomfort & pain discomfort being achy joints bruises and strain Pain is walls closing in no oxygen to the brain The Grim reaper with the key unlocking the chain When I suffered losses that made me take leave from the game I suffered the emptiness of never facing the strain reminded me of being paralyzed as a child When I flew off my bike and laid in rocks in a pile a discomfort that temporarily altered my style But like Tetsuo in a Akira I picked my guts up so there might be hope after all for this fuck up. verse 3 Outtro: Maybe you starting to get it after all nigga, but once a dumb. Smart. Nigga, always a Dumb. Smart. Nigga. Hook My friends say I'm smarter than Them. Smarter than my friends ooooh. So how come I'm not making their ends?

Hook My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again Verse1 It may sound strange an ambiguous to some But I can feel the emotions of other humans A deep empathy from the time I was young For example I’d have a great day & good fun Then someone high strung clearly so glum Under their thumb I’m pressed & so done A shadow inhaled an then passed through the lungs That’s where a knight in shining darkness comes from A man at his post haunted by ghosts As long as this energy always stays close I’m bound to the pain wrapped round my throat The knight in shining darkness no chain mail for coat So overwhelming I’d keep to myself Sensory overload circuits would melt Hours of scrubbing to bring back my health I wiped myself so hard I gave my skin welps Writing through pain always helps out a bit If they pain go away, will I cease to exist?? Hook My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again Verse 2 As I matured new strength had been forged my focus became sharp as a sword negativity was strings & some chords pinpointing its location like blips on a board Like hearing a ford with ears to the floor I can feel it coming like never before Like clothing extra layers and a cauldron under piles of bodies the heat is engulfing It came back to me once where I was working This shorty caught cancer death had been certain her depression had altered my person When she left the building I felt a resurgence full optimism, sunlight through curtains Now depending on the link I have with the person I can predict their words before they’re emerging Feed their pain through distance & deterrent The knight in shining darkness guides through the current uphill struggle climate cold & undeserving The band leader orchestrate tide for the turning Walk through the pain I know my soul is burning Hook My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again My knights in shining, Darkness we dwell again

Radius 02:46
Intro Longer than a tightrope, aim of a snipers scope Wrapped around a building, like a line for jordans New methods of exploring, new masters of exploiting from the range of it its a radius. Verse 1 I walk in all nonchalant, then soak up the ambiance In venues I’m a stomp, hit- the - stage- so- prompt Thoughts I provoke, I’m - beyond your scope Beee honest most, theeeey try to sculpt Something just as dope, well the answers nope! Only your ego bloats, for a seagulls gulp Try the belly up approach, didn’t say I told you so!

Verse 1 I woke up to the radio playing the Beatles I’m a loser skipping putting wear on the needle Worrisome laying there not feeling peaceful thoughts in my head hurtfully evil Anxiety paranoid works like a fever I know what’s out there but I’m a underachiever Sense of urgency mentally I’m not weaker physically mobility not much of a leader catching cold feet without snow in my sneakers socks sticking to me is how I get eager Sit up in my bed rub my feet they a heater Not happy what I see when I turn to the mirror lines in my face, dry skin, nothing clearer Depression setting pace, my goals no where closer I wonder when the day will come I ever get closure I look at the clock heart stops bending over Its 4pm? but 4am in bed I was sleeping Did I wake up on a Monday & miss the whole weekend? Feels like a Thursday even though its a Tuesday Hook Its Groundhogs Day with Limbo in the recipe A dash a Purgatory makes a sweet Souffle’ Its Groundhogs Day with Limbo in the recipe A dash a Purgatory makes a sweet Souffle’ Verse 2 I woke up to the radio playing the Eagles Hotel California my place of residence Leave is temporary no escaping the element White Walls 4 of’em I serve out my sentence I swear it’s a padded room with air vents A skylight with cold air rushing in I know I’m a fighter I’ll get up from the ground I sit up, stand up, then lay back down I look in the mirror my eyes are blood red Blood vessels exploding inside my head I walk down the hallway same as the white walls Feels like eternity with a slow crawl I walk to the door which feels 9ft tall I see the cemetery & leaves from the fall Is this a reflection on how my lifes been stalled? Or maybe I’m a spirit looking through a crystal ball Blueberry waffles are in my toaster Feels like cardboard going down my chest I swallow my pride, repeating the process Hook Its Groundhogs Day with Limbo in the recipe A dash a Purgatory makes a sweet Souffle’ Its Groundhogs Day with Limbo in the recipe A dash a Purgatory makes a sweet Souffle’ 3rd verse I woke up to the radio playing some kansas Carry on my wayward son has all of my answers Drag myself outta bed increases my chances Finish what I started all the work on my canvas Head downstairs I got too distracted surfed on the internet too much practice Gotta stop looking at these naked bitch asses Hours gone by vision strained need glasses Tell Shaun T. I know true insanity Going round in circles, I’m Stir Crazy I left my phone on in case of emergency But this crazy bitch keeps on calling me You don’t wanna fuck just talk to me!? Bitch please this ain’t Thelma and Louise We ain’t tie the knot & I’m not your main squeeze Went outside fresh air in need of a good run scared the lady with the rottweilers C’mon son! Wearing all black all you need is a handgun Went back home and the song is the same one Hook Its Groundhogs Day with Limbo in the recipe A dash a Purgatory makes a sweet Souffle’ Its Groundhogs Day with Limbo in the recipe A dash a Purgatory makes a sweet Souffle’

Clean Slate 04:29
Hook Post winter laced, thawed lakes, spring break Clean Slate! Ruffies in beer, a mind disappears Clean Slate! Comatose Amnesiac awakes Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased Reincarnation in a new birth place Clean Slate! Before illusions drained me of my faith Clean Slate! Hard Drive cleaned freeing up space Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased Verse 1 Remembering the moves that brought me to the dance I waltz with skeletons with a icy long glance So cold a polar bears fingers would catch cramps and a paraplegic would brush frost off his pants I got distracted going against my very nature From taking what I want and reaching my goals Never having to prove anything to these fucking assholes They don’t suffer with me, so I don’t give’em that control So, yeah bitch gimmie the blue pill dream Like Jessie Pinkman cooking methlamine to get that rare hue of methamphetamines so euphoric I leapt from a mezzanine landed in a space shuttle slash time machine Searching for the restoration of my old base Gone is the illusion, I have a clean slate Hook Post winter laced, thawed lakes, spring break Clean Slate! Ruffies in beer, a mind disappears Clean Slate! Comatose Amnesiac awakes Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased Reincarnation in a new birth place Clean Slate! Before illusions drained me of my faith Clean Slate! Hard Drive cleaned freeing up space Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased Verse 2 I’ll Terra-form the moon busting nuts at night That go up & down like suborbital flights That cause torrential down pours & new signs of life A fresh start yes but that doesn’t change the game The only way diamonds are forever is if pressure is a crucial success measure like diamonds from the players club casting weather Only when you know pain can real change occur I should slam my palms on salted broken glass shoot myself in the knee stab both of my calves Just so I can start penning my rough draft Like Tuskegee Airman operating aircraft But I got better luck having my prostate exam By a blind cardiologist with hooks on his hands But when the mappings of my brain are left in gods hands I guess he isn’t laughing much at the layout of my plans Hook Post winter laced spring break thawed lakes Clean Slate! Ruffies in beer a mind disappears, Clean Slate! Comatose amnesiac awakes Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased. Reincarnation in a new birthplace Clean Slate! Before illusions drained me of my faith, Clean Slate! Hard drive cleaned freeing up space,Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased verse 3 Call me autonomous prime with my inner chi With the energon I produce from my energy I could power a city from new orleans to sicily and keep away these strange creatures from my vicinity They are those who’ll be frightened by your journey will give you every reason to pack it in a hurry But disappointed if you quit and decide to live safely That some psycho shit or maybe you just hate me? There are those who want you to escape hell & bust ass! But don’t believe you have the strength for the task They just tell you these things so you won’t feel bad Their just great salesman blowing smoke up your ass Because everyone wants you to do good but not better than them These are leeches, not friends - cover your skin Only through evolution can we leave the past behind That’s how you get a clean slate that’s how I got mine….. Hook Post winter laced, thawed lakes, spring break Clean Slate! Ruffies in beer, a mind disappears Clean Slate! Comatose Amnesiac awakes Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased Reincarnation in a new birth place Clean Slate! Before illusions drained me of my faith Clean Slate! Hard Drive cleaned freeing up space Clean Slate! I need a fresh start with my past erased

Verse 1 Dreams and goals I don’t play with it like a vampires chest put a stake in it somewhere along lines you’ve heard this shit You ain’t good enough to be making it Words spoken by an antagonist Whose viewpoint is lower than average but it seem so many people carry it like pepper salt shakers in a cabinet I thought making it was celebrating with peers But I realized they had other ideas The makings of a man change year to year in this western civilized part of the sphere The unknown of making it is part of the fear and the he said she said from ear to ear I know artists who made it near the pinnacle started out a optimist and came back cynical Music videos don’t change how you live Rappers on mtv still live in they mama crib more ironic than the cia wearing coke boy t-shirts dock of the bay Your favorite artist might work in the day saving up for big time radio play when he hands the money over to the DJ who never intended to play his songs anyway Making it is not as simple as you thought it was Like a ziploc bag minus all of your drugs all that hard work and you ain’t got a ounce of buzz Thats more than ouch when you get snubbed Nothings perfect about making it In fact there’s more of a pain to it More of a paint to it the interior is cracked and the frame is chipped Hook So what they can’t grasp, your need for it They don’t wake up in the morning and eat with it Your obsession and why you feel complete with it So why the fuck should I care how they see or feel for it Is making it making other people happy Or being rich out your ass and lonely Whats making it? Who the fuck knows! All I know is there’s a point where I determine it Verse 2 Amidst my Grandma’s picture collection I’m a vampire, yes I have no reflection I look at my cousins graduation Pictures of so much admiration about me they have no expectations Proud of his and all her contributions I guess I always been kinda losing My path not there’s one I been choosing He ain’t like us it’s so confusing The work you do has not been proving a answer of a financial solution only the hours of you coming and going change but no progress is showing your birth was only the sign of a omen He’ll never have his own just stuck in our home then not sitting in a benz with chrome on both ends How come you couldn’t be like all your old friends? Jared and Richard why don’t you call them? Frankensteins monster without the bolts in Chances slimmer than signs of a vulcan Sitting here day & night all my good friends have moved on in life Mini van with kids with a house and wife Suburban area so quiet at night I know I couldn’t do it with my internal fight I’d peel my skin off and disappear in the night Like how my uncle my was explaining it this art music thing you ain’t making it Then his left knee he started banging it Angry because the drums he stopped playing it He went and got married kids the end of it if thats life then I don’t need this shit Hook So what they can’t grasp, your need for it They don’t wake up in the morning and eat with it Your obsession and why you feel complete with it So why the fuck should I care how they see or feel for it Is making it making other people happy Or being rich out your ass and lonely Whats making it? Who the fuck knows! All I know is there’s a point where I determine it Verse 3 My station in life am I ashamed of it? Funny how everyone perceives whats making it But I did more than my co workers at Bally’s and proved wrong friends who said they were family I’ve looked for moments I could validate every single waking moment that I create My lifes not worthy of being snubbed I’m really not the loser that you thought I was but the seeds of jealousy started it cause You look at me as if I was addicted to drugs Your kindness was always a sense of false love When you have a metal fist inside of kit gloves Proving myself I used to slave on that ship Til I realize nothing really came of it Its like an elephant explaining life to an ant his position in spite he can’t fit in his pants I’m self possessed like an evil spirit jumping in its own chest and the screams you hear it I’m sorry grandma for not listening I didn’t become a baptized christian then but I’m so much comfortable in my skin more than I ever was way back then Sorry Granddad I didn’t roll in a Benz I ain’t never been to good at saving my ends But this music thing keeps on pulling I’m so obsessed with it like its a trend I’m better at expressing myself with a pen I’m sorry ma for all the schools I never got in It’s my life after all I have to look in determine my life and the state that its in See I ain’t happy with just making it Paradise lost I’m escaping it Hook So what they can’t grasp, your need for it They don’t wake up in the morning and eat with it Your obsession and why you feel complete with it So why the fuck should I care how they see or feel for it Is making it making other people happy Or being rich out your ass and lonely Whats making it? Who the fuck knows! All I know is there’s a point where I determine it

about

Super King Armor Queens, New York

A low key, O.D. Charles Barkley, a verbal Chuck Norris on beat. This best describes the sound on stage and recordings by Super King Armor. Always finishing with brutal efficiency on the mic, ugly! This coincides with his stage presence which is like 'Animal' from the muppets. A physical performer. He is verbose with his lyrics and brutally honest regarding life and how hes lived it. ... more
