Fake News (Intro)

5 bucks doggy
Its a self growing self evolving
Self learning minded organism
The very fabric of space itself
Engenders the most sophisticated
Biological like neural net imaginable
This neural net had no
Restrictions in terms of
Time or space it is omniscient
There is no outside creator
It is eternal and will iterate on itself
Infinitely coming back to unity
Everything we see is an expression of
This underlying minded fabric of light
Nothing is actually separate
From anything

Save Face
02:46
|

Welcome to the stage yo
Its riddled with actors
Everyones got a role
Its full of contractors
Half the time this business
Is all just backwards
Being fake, and saving face
Is what matters
All the shiny lights
And all the dancers
Being true and real
Is not the factors
You got to bow down
Listen to the masters
Everyone is cheap product
Encased in wrappers
What matters is
Attention and laughter
How to create more shit
Faster and faster
People are fake and
Most are actors
Even your own friends
May be backstabbers
End of the day they got to save face
Cant make their mistakes
So they choose to be fake
Scared for their reputation
So they hang with the snakes
You know what I mean
From a hollow hand shake
Dont care about you
Only what they take
When they are done with you
Look at the ashes of your wake
They will give you a call
But then they'll just flake
Chew you up and spit you out
Just to see what they can make
Acting like your friends
They are all just phony
Listen to that shit
All they spit is bologna
Artificial make believe and pretend
Bogus fabricated sham in the end
They have betrayed and they are afraid
Cant let others see the bricks
That they have laid
Point the finger at you
So opinions are swayed
They aint going to let you know
That you have been played
And that is this place
Complete disgrace
Clicky politics wrapped up in a rat race
It cant be them
Your identity erased
Be careful who you trust
Your friendship they will misplace
End of the day they got to save face
Cant make their mistakes
So they choose to be fake
Scared for their reputation
So they hang with the snakes
You know what I mean
From a hollow hand shake
Dont care about you
Only what they take
When they are done with you
Look at the ashes of your wake
They will give you a call
But then theyll just flake
Chew you up and spit you out
Just to see what they can make
End of the day they got to save face
Cant make their mistakes
So they choose to be fake
Scared for their reputation
So they hang with the snakes
You know what I mean
From a hollow hand shake
Dont care about you
Only what they take
When they are done with you
Look at the ashes of your wake
They will give you a call
But then theyll just flake
Chew you up and spit you out
Just to see what they can make

Heres a game that we can play
Soda water juicy jay
Plastic rocks and yellow clay
24 hours a day
Sipping shots and
Dipping dots and
Mystery box and
Twisted plots and
Whats that thought
Before you knock
Peanut chocolate candy shop
Sitting playing with your hair
What you doing over there
Come on over sit by me
Pumpkin and a bumble bee
Take that shit and dont look back
Said and done after the fact
Look like bout to be attacked
Dummy games
Thats why you wack
Is it Mike or is it Bob
Is it I that is the dog
What can I say its a job
Purple lizard lincoln log
Take a left and take a right
Furry feather filthy light
Frosted sugar cookie night
I wish I may I wish I might
Our father arent in heaven
Turn it up to eleven
Minimum is at seven
Mike tyson is at my wedding
In the morning how I start
S m r t I'm so smart
Parking lot shopping cart
Tree or dog
Leaves and bark
What the fuck
Is five bucks
All laced up
All black chucks
All blacked out
Pickup truck
And the shit you say about ducks
Do you know what im saying
Do you know if im playing
Dmv im a waiting
In the kitchen
Im a baking
Here you go
Heres a true
In my pocket I have blue
One for me and one for you
What bubble gum you chew
Every lake weve got a fake
About a thousand
Give or take
Do you see whats at stake
Minnesota frosted flakes
Relate with you
Hell no
Ill drop you with my elbow
Back of my hand
You will know
Sorry that will swell yo
Either you like it
Or you love it
Your below
Or above it
Or you hate it
Well thank you
Its my job its what I do
Hit that shit
And popped a lick
And copped a hit
And re-upped quick
And got my stick
And heres the flip
Im a witch healing the sick
And im all just like ooooo
In my eyes across the room
I see you and you see me too
And im all just like ooooo
In my eyes across the room
I see you and you see me too
And im all just like ooooo
In my eyes across the room
I see you and you see me too
And im all just like ooooo
In my eyes across the room
I see you and you see me too
And im all just like ooooo

This kid doesnt believe in ghost
But now its what he sees the most
Took some dose from coast to coast
Brains command post
Minds the host
Out of everyone he took the most
Now hes talking to a lamp post
Hes turning into french toast
Achievement of enlightment almost
Sits down to do some relaxing
But the walls begin to close in
From the floor
To the wall to the ceiling
Now the corners are just breathing
Sit back
Take a deep breath
I am choking
Heart racing
Im sweating
My minds broken
Try to sit back relax
Let this soak in
Now everything in the room
Is floating
Vibrating sounds take over
Im in the dome
Patterns on the wall
Where is my home
Cant believe what I see
I am not alone
A creature crept forward
With something to be shown
Colorful patterns
And hieroglyphics
Everything is moving
And nothing is fixed
A psychedelic brew that I have mixed
See you later reality
You will not be missed
In the deemsters
I met the keeper
Of everything and anything
That you see here
From nothing
Everything manifest
Battle of good and evil
Light and darkness
But nothing really matters
Is the truth
Opposite of what youve been told
From your youth
Good and bad are all of
The same thing
Different polar degrees
Of what they bring
All emerging Light
From the no thing
Call it angels and demons
Listen to them sing
Imprisoned in your body
As a human being
Cast the mass
Hit the bell
And let it ring
It goes round and round
And will again
It goes up and down
Before we transcend
Once upon a time
In a dream
A long time ago
We traveled back
From the future
With a message
For our Soul
Magic elves
On my minds shelf
Try to teach me
How to spell
One last breath
Ego death
This is a test
You wouldnt
Have Guessed
Magic elves
On my minds shelf
Try to teach me
How to spell
One last breath
Ego death
This is a test
You wouldnt
Have Guessed
Magic elves
On my minds shelf
Try to teach me
How to spell
One last breath
Ego death
This is a test

Misconstrue everything you do
The world is constantly coming at you
With truth and lies do you realize
Reality spoon fed imbedded in your mind
Didnt take the time to read the fine print
But it looks like you willfully signed it
Turn around just to complain
I cant with stain im going insane
Life's distracting most are acting
Some are searching for what theyre lacking
Latch on things outside themselves
So much stimuli do you think they felt
The pursuit for truth comes with a cost
In the worlds eyes you are nothing but lost
But let me tell a secret before you do
You have it the truth is inside of you
This is all happening now
And thats it thats what did it for you wow
I took this thought and went for a walk
Stole the words from my voice and I couldn't talk
To try to comprehend what this means
Had to peel through the fabric unsewn the seems
My memories blending with my dreams
Sit down lay back deep breath breath
Look to the skies and to the stars
The cool air in the breeze blows from a far
Then before me time stands still
Flood gates in my mind all spill we live life
Floating down a stream gently believing its a dream
Never truly thinking for ourselves
Dealt in rations our health and wealth
I am you as you are me all of reality
And everything you see everything you do or want to be
Is possible as long as you believe time flies by
The world tells you lies in order to live
We must die what goes up
Must come down and no matter what
It goes around
All this contradictions
Got me mixing I am slipping feel thought
Pull me closer to my soul
Where I reach for the impossible
In this mission I am listening
Glistening blistering from this vison
System is tightening the chains
I look for change but its all the same
All this contradictions
Got me mixing I am slipping feel thought
Pull me closer to my soul
Where I reach for the impossible
In this mission I am listening
Glistening blistering from this vison
System is tightening the chains
I look for change but its all the same

Lost N' Found

Abduction of your life
Haunting crept in over night
Adoption you took form
In the chaos of the storm
Instructions follow orders
Blame others close the borders
Exhaustion mental strain
Propaganda in the airwaves
Disruption every day
A brand new game for us to play
Concoction take a drink
So we dont have to feel or think
Precaution we take none
Russian roulette fire the gun
Forgotten your the one
Squeezed of life till youre done
Burn it down down to the ground
The world is burning all around
Infiltrate and remove the crown
Submerge with bricks and let it drown
Fuck the system fuck the cops
Its all controlled from the top
Down here were just props
Endless cycle it dont stop
People only care about themselves
Others feelings theyre not felt
Turn up the heat and watch them melt
Standing there waiting to be dealt
On the loose hell hound
Cut the noose spell bound
All thats left carbon mound
There wont be a lost and found
Obstructions were all stressed
Told what to do and how to dress
Destruction of what we think
Program our thoughts get us in sync
Construction produce more
Our way of life is the way of war
Distortion cant see clear
Times have changed the end is near
Proportion nothing makes sence
A new world comes with an expense
Extortion everything you have
Youll loose everything no matter where your at
Compassion there is none
Bleed you dry till they are done
Misfortune on the world
Round and round as it twirls
Burn it down down to the ground
The world is burning all around
Infiltrate and remove the crown
Submerge with bricks and let it drown
Fuck the system fuck the cops
Its all controlled from the top
Down here were just props
Endless cycle it dont stop
People only care about themselves
Others feelings theyre not felt
Turn up the heat and watch them melt
Standing there waiting to be dealt
On the loose hell hound
Cut the noose spell bound
All thats left carbon mound
There wont be a lost and found

Taboo
05:33
|
|||
Story starts off with an injury
From there the rest is history
A tale to be told with no victory
Shrouded in silence cloaked in misery
Two to three twice a day
It will make the pain go away
And dont worry you can trust me
Just look at the wall you can see my degree
And yes its easy to get off
Wouldnt give it to you if you couldnt stop
So heres your perscription
Keep it in the kitchen
Take as perscribed ill see you in a month
So this began my new ritual
I took his advice everyday continual
And in the end the eventual
Demise of my individual
Mental illness in this country
Is taboo now cant you see
They dont want you to know the truth
You live in a fantasy
They break you down to make you weak
Provide you with things for you to seek
Casted upon you their tricks
Look down upon and shun the addict
Days into weeks and
Weeks into months and
Months into years and
All these tears can not sum up
All of this fear i dont know
How to get out of here
These pills are so expensive
This shit is a life sentence
So i took to the streets to get my fix
But i could never dream of what was next
All it took was just one hit
My intuition was silenced
They say in life you reap what you sew
And my life now is what i owe
Going down the hiway
Im going about ninety
Look up in the mirror
The cops are behind me
Pull off on the exit
Crept into an alley
Turn off my lights
No one will find me
And now the fuzz are zeroing in
But i dont care cause im high on heroin
And as they go by i make my escape
Peel out of this place cause ive got a date
Im going to see the black tar goddess
Meet up with the dope man
Im so modest
Turmoil tinfoil watch solid turn to boil
Only to the opiate am i loyal
Now i graduated needles and spoons
Alone by myself time goes by in this room
I casted a spell and now im in hell
Will i live to see tommorrow
Only time will tell
Mental illness in this country
Is taboo now cant you see
They dont want you to know the truth
You live in a fantasy
They break you down to make you weak
Provide you with things for you to seek
Casted upon you their tricks
Look down upon and shun the addict
Lost your friends and your veins collapse
Try to get clean but just relapse
You have no money so you cook up crack
All for the dope tar china and smack
And this is the world we live in
All around you even the hood you reside in
Even your own friends but you dont know
Enslaved in trap houses getting low
Live kill and die for the balloon
Possession of their addiction to consume
The system is not about recovery
All just profit and money
Dealers worship the almighty dollar
Junkies scream in pain as they holler
Suboxone methadone harm reduction
Contributes more to the drug wars destruction
Problem is this will never stop
One dealer goes down another opens shop
Or you got to deal with crooked cops
Only way to stop it is to stop it at the top
But the people in power have made a promise
To keep their silence to fill their pockets
All you are to them is another deposit
As they sit back and count their profits
It will keep on going on
Its a cycle
Another overdose another revival
Another drug shipment another arrival
How can it end how can it say idel
In the world of drugs its all survival
Police and gang life its all tribal
More will die to stop it is vital
America totally in denial
Like a virus there is no vaccine
The only way to stop this is to stay clean
Talk about a pandemic this is systemic
For years we have been lost in this epidemic
Every single day more people die
Drug overdose murder or suicide
By doing nothing continue to comply
You hear the people outcry but most just stand by
The sad truth is there is no cure
You must find within yourself how to endear
But most people wont theyll disappear
Or theyre tied to strings by the puppeteer
Guide yourself to truth to fight the evil
Otherwise the next shot could be lethal
Within darkness be guided by the light
Fight the fear within and
Listen to your insight
Mental illness in this country
Is taboo now cant you see
They dont want you to know the truth
You live in a fantasy
They break you down to make you weak
Provide you with things for you to seek
Casted upon you their tricks
Look down upon and shun the addict

Rocking Chair

Couple screws loose but thankfully i knew
What to do I got the tool here to prove
The fool to all of you
Toxic sauce got me walking sox off
Popping glocks off while shopping
At the store looking for chicken broth
Or the moth man prophecies
Doesnt matter cross the tees and dot the eyes
Listen to me prophesy
Synthetize all your lies
That be coming out your mouth
Collecting all your tears moisturize
Alright im out with my
Head down walking around
Looking kind of lonely
Solley looking for purpose in this place
Cosmic soda outer space
Drank the koolaid made me stay at
The pool all day
Side to side you see me sway
Bring your games you know ill play
Now im late for the party
Ive got no date and im tardy
Contemplate if im sorry
Probably not lets get gnarly
Life is like a rubics cube and a
Shady dude who walks up to you
With a false and true and tells you what to do
Well ive got a choice of which way
Im going to send my voice
For all you girls and boys
All that noise coming from your cheap toys
Oh the joys of being an open minded skeptic
Check this life experience
Has got alot of leverage
Back and forth in my rocking chair
I sit and i stare
Here we go do you know where
Nope we dont probably never we wont
Doggy paddle gasp for air
Just trying to stay a float
Zip your lip talking shit
Everything you say obnoxious
Consciously you make me nauseas
Show me some work for the profit
Best in show some time ago
At least that what you think you know
Does not reflect or respect
On the precious process
No stems no seeds no sticks
Blind folded magic tricks
Triple dipped mad hatter
Blotter acid
Stepped outside to feel alive
But my life keeps trying to bribe
Me from my reality
Surrounded by entropy
Back and forth in my rocking chair
I sit and i stare
Here we go do you know where
Nope we dont probably never we wont
Doggy paddle gasp for air
Just trying to stay a float
Back and forth in my rocking chair
I sit and i stare
Here we go do you know where
Nope we dont probably never we wont
Doggy paddle gasp for air
Just trying to stay a float

Kinda Crazy
03:40

I've been feeling kind of crazy
I've been feeling kind of crazy
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me
I've been feeling kind of crazy
I've been feeling kind of crazy
I've been feeling
I've been feeling
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Everyone is seeming shady
Baby let me get to safety
Everything is looking spacey
Maybe cause my minds all wavy
They all say I talk to hades
Daily look my hands all shaky
Its cause everything's so noisy
Heal me outside where it's rainy
Everything is feeling heavy
Badly can you really blame me
She was such a lovely lady
Silly thought this shit was steady
Everyone is seeming shady
Baby let me get to safety
You were such a mystery fury
In me I can not see clearly
Here I am I am so lonely
And it's funny cause you know me
As you scream at me all loudly
Hate me plenty you sedate me
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me
It's time for me to be set free
Somebody anybody help me
Low key cast me out to sea
Reality peace I'm about to flee
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me
I've been feeling kind of crazy
Lately contemplating daily
I've been feeling kind of lazy
As I watch my brain escape me

Thousand pills one thousand screams
Always tearing everything apart at the seams
All the thrills and broken dreams
Not understanding what anything means
Gonna do myself just one more favor
I'm gonna have just one more flavor
This is what I tell myself every time
Not a lot of difference from nickle to dime
But I can't keep track and I can't keep up
And I won't look back and now I'm stuck
Refuse the truth so I drink up
Living and drinking from this bottomless cup
But I've touched fire and now I'm burned
Just barely but that I've learned
That the times have changed and the tabled have turned
Violent shaking and my vision is blurred
Pull myself to the things I want
Care free and happiness is what I'll flaunt
A fabric of lies I will tell you
Behind your back you know what I'll do
If you felt my pain you would go insane
All these chemicals going off in my brain
I look at you but me not at myself
You reach for me but I will refuse help
Every puff and every sip
Every shot and every trip
Every score for more and more
Always keeps me further
From reaching the door
Only a few places that this will go
Locked up in a cell or in a hole
Possessed by spirts in the mist
If you choose to follow you get this
Life full of torment full of sorrow
Always afraid of what's tomorrow
Loose your friends and loose your house
Loose your money and loose your spouse
Loose your mind and brought to kill
And just to think you did it for a pill
No life left a life full of death
You dance with the devil and there is nothing left
So I've wept and so I've cried
I've died in this body one thousand times
I've gone insane and lost my mind
Everyday I hustle just to struggle and grind
You beg for help not to feel this pain
Just to do all the drugs all over again
You blame the world on all your problems
And yourself is the last that will solve them
And every sip
Every shot and every trip
Every puff and every sip
Every shot and every trip
Every puff and every sip
Every shot and every trip
It is your life so do what you do
Who gives a shit about what is true
Numb your feelings slow your breathing
Take your drugs and feel your heart beating
Hide yourself from this darkened world
Roll the bubble and let it twirl
No one understands and there's nothing to do
Not tricking anyone the fool is you
Every puff and every sip
Every shot and every trip
Every score for more and more
Always keeps me further
From reaching the door
Only a few places that this will go
Locked up in a cell or in a hole
Possessed by spirts in the mist
If you choose to follow you get this
My life do or die
I'm always high in the sky
Out of sight out of mind
I'm always living my lie
My life do or die
I'm always high in the sky
Out of sight out of mind
I'm always living my lie

Well it was fun but the times are done
and I'm going this way I'll see you another day
Remember times we had aww come on don't be mad
You should be glad there's another story to be had
Look at outer space can you describe such a place
Where does it start forever in my heart
Work on your state try to love and not hate
Take some time for yourself give me a call if you need help
Give me a call if you need help
Give me a call if you need help
Give me a call if you need help
Give me a call if you need help
Give me a call if you need help
Give me a call if you need help
Give me a call if you need help
