Its a story of solitude, awakening is rude, a second world war from european attitude, but it changed the face, of the geopolitical landscape, and now its a race, to arms dealers, sending feelers out to the third world, the blanket of democracy has been unfurled, protection from nato is a guarentee, but now we're shareholders, in all of your industry, interesting patterns emerge from the conflict, the cesspit of capital gains are invested, into the future of war and disease, but the next generation will do as they please, we're headed to the grimdark that is only war, deplorable morals that abhor the poor, but there's more of us, than the core of the upper class, workers of the world unite, we might win at last We play in the sand, like kids with their army men, only difference here, is that the wars ain't pretend, tomcats dropping bombs, B-29's above, we get serious when push comes to shove, show you love, in the form of a tomahawk, dropping through the roof of hussein's palace in iraq, lots of talk, about real politik, but we're americans, don't you know our shit don't stink, makes you think, dependence upon gasoline, seems the fuel of the american dream, I need a team, of like minded individuals, for a think tank, otherwise we have habitual, regression into a warlike state, I'll debate the merits, but we cannot wait, whats at stake? The future of our kin, if we don't act now, then our story is fin We start global wars over fossil fuels and docile feuds, refuse to defuse, in the face of colossal news, reuse, or a state of emergency, a sense of urgency, as groups begin insurgency, brother versus brother in a war over black gold, we fight each other, every man, young or old, it was foretold, but we didn't listen to the prophets, had a perfect union, but with our greed, we have lost it, tossed it, out the window with our sanity, gassing population centers, ohh the humanity, I'm proud to be, an american soldier? An army of one, I kill children in cold blood, and when we're done, its years of recovery, solar and nuclear energy in synergy, listen to me, cause this is a tale of caution, the story I've told, simply cannot be an option

Dreams 04:06
I know we've all got dreams, but some of them go to waste, and yet I'm bursting at the seams, but the future ain't a race, see, I can taste it, you can't erase it, I gotta face it, my dreams are based in, a reality I haven't encountered yet, all I can see, is try hard as an epithet, Its a better bet, to keep your goals ahead, or get a big head, fail to finish, and then you drop dead, but when you're laid to bed, remember your potential, its what makes you you, for humanity, essential, Especially for artists who are starving on the streets, Its just so easy, to give up, and call it defeat, but with a beat in our head, and a pen in our hand, Let me give you my hand, I understand I can see my dreams so perfectly, A future, where the master of me is me, And yet I find it so hard, to believe, Cause plans often turn out differently, But that don't mean that imma be stagnant, I'm a tidal wave, ain't no way that I be laggin, I'm sorta like the hiphop frodo baggins, I finish my quest, despite the trouble I'm attracting, You say I've got delusions of grandeur, But I can't just be another one of the gander, So just come and take a gander, I promise what you'll see will be grander, So if you would, listen closely, Cause I'm not often into boasting, But in the future when it's me you're toasting, Just remember that I haven't been coasting We fight, we fight, we dream, we dream, we push, we push, we scheme, we scheme, to reach that above, above, So let this be the message, we are the 99, and let this be the message, we're sick of working 9 to 5, and let this be the message, we'll scream, until the world hears our cry, and let this be the message, we'll do it, until we die

From etre, to tr rhyme, to raslin, take it back in time, Let me show you all where it all began, and then I'll invite you, to become my friend Let me take you back to school, you can learn my history, from tr rhyme to raslin, now etre its amazing, I've been making music now, for a couple years, wanted to drop an album, but first I had to quell my fears, That I wouldn't come onto the scene, like an atom bomb, but now it seems, as though I have the world in my palm, went from that goldilocks, to that snot box, now I'm appearing on tracks, next to guy fawkes, not tryin'a' say, that I'm better than my bretheren, but I got so much swag that you can not help but be tetherin' you were syncing, singing, thinkin' lincoln, I was sitting alone, got to drinking, got to drivin', popo finding me, above the limit, thought I would end up in sing sing, got through it all, but in the end, ended up as a changed man, with a master plan, From etre, to tr rhyme, to raslin, take it back in time, Let me show you all where it all began, and then I'll invite you, to become my friend When I started out, I was just making songs, with my friends, Pretendin', that we would be rappers, heaven sent, Never meant, to take this seriously, but now I'm, hellbent, on turning in my pedigree, better be a light at the end of the road, martyrdom for this music, hope that it showed, going for the gold, settlin' on recognition, feelin' old, but I turn on the ignition, Got a mission, new objective, always followin' that prime directive, Selective audience, need that audio, blow their mind like you just dropped a snow globe, Take it home, become my biggest fan, hope one day to be big like that mega ran, got a chance, but focusing on history, means there wont be a new path in front of me

You got a health rating, you find yourself debating, If I fight this boss, will my life soon be fading, trading blows, toe to toe, eye to eye, all you gotta ask yourself is do you fight or do you fly, but you're the hero, there's no backing down, to sixty from zero, thats what I call slashing now, you might die now, no daunting concern tho, flyin' around, like you in dante's inferno came to terms a long time ago, you on a mission, no time for bitching, cause a whiner's gonna earn a lynchin', now you're fishing for that big catch, lots of cash, finish him off, with a charged up buster blast, Guess what, you lost the game, It happens to everybody, you lost the game, no shame to it, yeah, you lost the game, begin again, because you lost the game, catching you off guard, you went and missed his weak point, you on guard, didn't think that he would hit adroit, But you're knocked out, down in the pit, what to do with a dead body? You dump it but you're bumping up your levels in that training, learning new moves, abilities gaining, refraining, from making, the same mistakes, you'll take him down, no matter what it takes, So you step up again, weapon in hand, victory planned, the only way that a man can, shit hits the fan, but you're ready with that quick strike, not quick enough, now you're head lays upon a pike, Guess what, you lost the game, It happens to everybody, you lost the game, no shame to it, yeah, you lost the game, begin again, because you lost the game, Yeah, well you gave it your best shot, nobody comes in, expecting to get shot, you fought well, but you just weren't good enough, shoulda found a hero, who was 'effin tough, we got love for you, but you failed us, now evil's won, and we are all dust, Guess what, you lost the game, It happens to everybody, you lost the game, no shame to it, yeah, you lost the game, begin again, because you lost the game,
