|
This is for the I.M. Culture |
|
A poor pauper's offering for the alter |
|
The 'C' of Tranquility, I'm a show 'em what I see |
|
The 'C' of Tranquility, I'm a show 'em what I see |
|
[Hook:] |
|
The 'C' of Tranquility, what will it really be? |
|
What does the future hold? What do you really see? |
|
I see a revolution in the industry |
|
That will ignite the rebirth of MCs lyrically |
|
The 'C' of Tranquility, what will they really be? |
|
What does the future hold? What can you really see? |
|
I see the partition of God's religion |
|
Become united by our bars and our common visions |
|
[Verse 1:] |
|
Been a long time, spittin' long rhymes, but I never left you |
|
Always came back bustin' rhymes that were special |
|
Back then, I wanted to impress you by addressing the truth |
|
Nowadays, I'm just confessing in the booth |
|
The Golden Era of Rap will always be apart of me |
|
The future talks to me because the present is ignoring me |
|
My destiny is calling me, the armory of God is guarding me |
|
But all you can see is holographic artistry |
|
Rhyme mechanics, like that of a blind pianist |
|
The keys are metallic, my fingers are magnets |
|
The music is magic, what is this madness? |
|
The stanzas are rites of passage, your left brain habits become your baggage |
|
The masses become savage, roaming the streets with torn fabrics |
|
Creativity is less than average |
|
Every baby is born a bastard, so why did you have it!? |
|
This question requires no answer, I understand it |
|
[Hook] |
|
[Verse 2:] |
|
Through my music, magic, and inoculated interaction |
|
Rip the Jacker shows you the future in fragments |
|
Through madness my view is expanded |
|
Request passage, permission is granted, I'll introduce you to the language of dragons |
|
To help balance near impossible trances in the labyrinth of the enchanted |
|
Where air quality is unbearably rancid |
|
From evil spirits, temperatures frigid |
|
I cross wooden bridges over methane rivers, it sounds crazy, but listen |
|
Concise lyrics strike down from the heavens |
|
A titan like Mike Tyson, Beastmaster with a tiger and pigeon |
|
A four finger ring with a eyeball in it for vision |
|
Cause I ain't scared of no 9 foot 11 winged lizards |
|
I'm known as the Ripper, my soul was delivered to a wizard |
|
For spiritual slave labor in a prison |
|
My life is my sentence, so I live it |
|
But I studied the physics and understand it, so it's only a visit |
|
[Hook] |
|
[Verse 3:] |
|
Combinatrix, anything of this persuasion is considered ageless |
|
Beyond the matrix |
|
Beyond time displacement of space & spaceships in oasis |
|
Beyond the reach of human contemplation |
|
The music is layered, not computer generated |
|
A human made it to satisfy unusual cravings |
|
The mystic in a room with crystal walls & floors |
|
Looking into a crystal quartz orb, reciting lyrical law |
|
That cause warm feeling sensations precipitating from the finger tips |
|
To the arms, to the lips, to the jaws |
|
To a gold tongue that spits to the tone of the drum |
|
With the oxygen that flows down the throat to the lungs |
|
Till every color of my Chakra glows brighter than the Sun |
|
YOU and I become WE, WE become ONE |
|
And the Clarity of Singularity has begun |
|
Between zero point zero and zero point one! [echoes] |
|
[Hook] |
