Nah homie, you ain't gonna play me like that Sick of your act, get duckin in fact You ain't nothing to Tak, keep talking that smack And get smacked up like a hooker on crack Pick a booger and and stick it in ya wine glass Playing wit my family, you don't wanna try that Sly cat, overnight, probably write five tracks Get used to me and Tweggs, makin music in ya head Rappin' like I had a pistol to my head to my head This country is tempestuous at best Misinformation is gonna spread Cuz these folks wanna see us all dead Joy is gonna save us in the end Crush a fence, do a dance, watch authorities fret Trump and Pence, no suspense, white supremacists Gun em then, all of them, then call it defense Chorus Let my people go I don't trust 5-0 I don't rock chains, cuz I'm really free, cousin Pigs mean mugging cuz they know I'm a disruption Pigs mean mugging cuz they know we don't love em ACAB, F12, end of discussion Two seconds away from the detonation button So you better do something or shut up then What up, fam? You know I been doing work Fan walked up and said she love Gentle Twerk I don't eat the Xannies and I don't pop percs Humanity disturbingly misses its own worth 2018, I could've died but I didn't God is by my side and I ain't even religious But I honor the commitment, Yeshua is life Even in the strife when I'm lookin at the knife I refuse to die, I got unlimited drive Macabre Rob and I, stay true to the fight

Tak: I do what it does, I do what it don't Gimme some love, I get in the zone Gimme some drugs and leave me alone There is no time to hope against hope Demons are lurking I seen em working The devil is smirking, helluva surgeon Empathy lacking, anger worsens There ain't a plan, humanity's cursed Couple of questions, where are my mentions? Every day I get deep in the sessions Even a teacher could use some lessons We get grippin the Smith and Wesson Flash the president a glimpse of genitalia Tak and Sixpence, we the illest in Australia Or America, continuing to break down barriers Complacence or anarchy, which one is scarier? I'm mad enough to set fire to your girl's terrier Afterwards, I'm a jet, vacate the area

Tak: We're stuck in this Diet Coke version of hell But as long as we got breath, we must resist I hear the bells, piano keys swell Time to tune in to that knowledge of self The people are rising now, son This is not a riot, this a revolution Cops are bastards, motherfuckers got it backwards Television pastors are certified actors Half nigga, half cracker, killin' masters Ready to throw a bevy of weapons up in a Chevy And storm the senate, my mission is to behead it As well as anybody making war with my brethren Honor and dignity are still worth defending President playing victim, always pretending Push a Proud Boy into a pool of piranhas Tweggs on the beat, got em cooking like a sauna Two blunts and a Marijuana cookie You don't want the smoke, you a rookie I ain't a politician, but don't push me Catch me grabbing Donald Trump by the pussy Chorus Proud Boys, Proud Boys fuck off Proud Boys, Proud Boys fuck off Proud Boys, Proud Boys fuck off Proud Boys, Proud Boys fuck off

Double up on socks, put on the Reeboks It's raining outside, seen too many cops So I keep the hoodie up, earbuds plugged in They think I'm on crack with my eyes sunk in Tweggs got beats you can't help but bump em Bumpkins back up before I squish your pumpkin You lack gumption and you perpetually stunting Then strutting yo shit like you really something We know better, little to no cheddar We won't let up, the new trendsetters Blending endeavors, emcees get dismembered Give your girl a wedgie just to upset her That's my bad fam Behind blue eyes, The Who, the bad man Damn, I go ham, these other rappers are spam Nothing of substance, nothing to fuck with I just bust this, like my name was Peter Venkman Proton pack, got ghosts to vanquish I'm on that dank shit, always going hammer time Friend of yours a friend of mine...unless they racist Hey kid, life has been yours for the takin' Nothing makes sense if you're always wasted And victory is close you can taste it So why you waitin'? You got limitless potential, no matter the credentials Essential to the game, burn down your residential Condo, strike a match and rip up on the bong, yo Light it up.

I shoot a rapper with a ray gun from Smash Bros Cash flow, minimal, I dress like an asshole Wifey looking at me like she don't even like me To die alone, nothing is more frightening But you'll get over it, gotta ride the lightning The illest in my scene rocking these beats From Tweggs, while yo girl eating mystery meats History repeats, it's all been seen Slack jawed if you had seen what Tak saw I seen Satan playing cards with God I seen too much, they wanna shut me up But they can't cuz i really never even gave a what? What a sick world Senators pay extra for time with little girls Sickening enough to make a nihilist hurl Reckoning is near, I ain't living in fear I get weird like the state that I reside in You got a yacht? What's a yacht to Poseidon? I don't follow rules that apply to men We battle the exterior as we fight within Underground, underwater, the leviathan Killed emcees before and I might again Me and the producer colder than Martin Buser Bet, colder than my ex, that's a twofer Bump it on your woofers while you flippin off the troopers Or in your airpods while you travel on ya scooter Otherwise, we shuttin you down like Hooters Before you swallow, it's imperative to chew first This dude work on a level so berserk While jerks pop percs making nothing but dirt I keep the ringer on, cuz God might call Til then I'ma keep giving this my all

Flashbangs, poppin off in the street Riot cops preying on the weak all week All month, all year, but have no fear I have a feeling a conclusion is near Politcians try to confuse us with jargon It's hard livin quarantined in this apartment Virus bringing back the teachings of Darwin Stupidity peaks whenever our heart hardens This can't be my world, this can't be it If there is a light, I'm still tryna see it All that hype, of course I wanna believe it Feelin' like Cain in the East of Eden Opps on all sides, the saints and heathens Economy is a lie, but selling it is a breeze and Yes, I do think we're still here for a reason But Lady Liberty is still bruised and beaten Hook 1 Everything is dandy, everything is fine Stand in line, one at a time You got your burger and you got your fries Americana, what a beautiful sight We got people in jail on marijuana charges While corporations out makin millions off it This environment is evil, hypocritical, toxic Their main mission is to make you think you lost it They don't give a hoot about you or the troops They're all in cahoots to deny people food And security, like what the hell is purity? Why should we create an environment that's nurturing? Yeah, we the angry optimists Smokin' chronic in the midst of an apocalypse Droppin' knowledge on em like this was a drone strike You're too blind to recognize your own fight Everything is not dandy, everything is not fine Be kind rewind us back to a better time When everything was pizza and Nickelodeon slime Now I find peace in the beats and rhymes Hook 2 Everything is dandy, everything is fine Stand in line, one at a time You got your slice of apple pie Americana, what a beautiful sight

I know my purpose, I aint living for the surface You the learner, I'm the master with a burner More disturbed than anybody that you heard of These run of the mill emcees are a disease Tak Havoc and Tweggs, deleting the elites And any eye witnesses making a single peep Push your face into the boiling chicken grease These dabs got me finding inner peace Pigging out on beats like a Thanksgiving feast Gotta keep writing cuz the stress don't cease Until I'm deceased, I'll be the bees knees Get your hands up, like the cops said freeze And fuck 12 they can eat a pair of these Fucking dweebs, you ain't got no steez I keep my mind free, cuz it's all that I got Stabilize my thoughts and proceed with the plot Treat beats like hopscotch, I'm poppin off Hit em with molotovs, desire doesn't quit That's just how it goes, you know I been on my shit Two 20s in my wallet, one might be counterfeit The grass is gas, but we smoke a pound of it While watching the adventures of Feivel Mousekewitz No doubt, we putting grams in the grinder After that, might grab brekky at the diner

Bodycamz 03:16
Ben Shapiro with the dry rub You nuts if you thinking I'm sharing my dub Rhymes on deck, full of disrespect Wordplay heavy enough to snap necks You could never handle these rap gymnastics Method to the madness, gotta go massive Take it to the top and let that bitch drop I'll listen to your argument long enough to trash it I'm a street mage lookin thru deep space For the ultimate blade to cut down my opponents Killing all the henchmen, hunnid rupee bonus I know they mad, cousin, cuz they could never own us Look alive cousin, mask on for corona You could never pay me to go back to Arizona On my ID, I marked NO for rhyme donor Cops hide body cams and shoot you on ya sofa Chorus Cops hide bodycams and shoot you on ya sofa Tell these conservatives to learn to live Stop condemning people to the furnaces I'm about to burn this bitch straight to the ground Lyrics are flammable and yet I keep it casual Until I start stabbing you, break your clavicle Push you down a flight of stairs and laugh at you Rappers are dumbfucks, I don't give em my trust Purely dumb luck that I haven't bit the dust Flip a truck over the side of a highway I been kickin raps since before you had a MySpace Cops wanna kill me cuz they can't determine my race Rappers wanna kill me cuz they can't keep up with my pace This the type of shit to make a motherfucker irate Psychedelic lyricism make your eyes dilate I'm pretty clever for a primate Yo girl phone between her legs on vibrate Hook Yo girl phone between her legs on vibrate

You talking about a rollie, that you rented for a video As if it was yours, bringing shame to the city, yo Be yourself for the sake of your health Shuck and jive bullshit ain't worth the wealth The cards you were dealt may not be your favorite But it's what you make of it, no faking it Like Sally at the table when she shaking it Got a buncha talent and you just wasting it You don't even write, bitch, you a plagiarist So it's no exaggeration when you hear me say That I hate that shit, really pisses me off We need originality back up in the sauce Your kids aint gonna feed themselves, they're twelve Yet here you are making an ass of yourself Them old habits need to die on the shelf Pretty obvious you're gonna need some help
10.
Live from the happy place, put on your happy face Punch your face in if you talk about a master race I really think we all need perspective Most people suck, you gotta be selective Never neglect this, it's easy to be reckless Nose full Nesquik ruins that temperament Our detriment is older than the motherfuckin elements It's evident that evil in America is prevalent And I don't give a fuck if you feel what I feel Cuz since day one this life was a raw deal Open wounds, tell me how the salt feel Petty goons only make for a small meal Kamehameha coming live from the palm heels The metamorphosis got me dwarfing a bitch Mighty Morphin pothead watching horror flicks, lit Offa 4 bong rips, this some hella strong shit Keep the water on deck, cottonmouth blues I been the truth since I chipped the front tooth I eat an edible then hit the blunt too I'm serving up the fiends, deliver that kung fu Inner voice never shy to confront you Gotta listen to it or get crushed like the mushrooms Gotta listen to it cuz who else do you trust? Abrasive on the surface, but I'm all about love Tweggs and Tak, yeah we optimists But we get pissed, when lives are dismissed As a simple sacrifice for the unholy rich Treated like bitches by these politicians To gain the world,you gotta lose ya soul Lose control to these Luciferean trolls And adjust your whole life to a particular mold Waiting for it to fall like the walls of Jericho
