Didn't think twice to clear a sample |
| [00:38.207] |
Drum break and a fill to dismantle |
| [00:40.399] |
Bass line and a phrase to assemble |

Stop at the moment, record the movement |
| [01:26.880] |
No pause for the students |
| [01:28.506] |
Of the game no excuse for snoozing |
| [01:30.693] |
A shoe - in to steal from the rich that got rich from looting |
| [01:33.567] |
You can consume but resume after chewing |
| [01:35.993] |
The media never gets tired of dooming |

Monitors blown out, speakers on feedback |
| [02:33.183] |
Song cut off, get a homey to beatbox |

We breed songs like seeds in placenta |

Earth to the people, power to the peaceful |
