Merit Lyrics

All right
I can hear the ocean in a shell, but
For the life of me, I never heard your surges
More than raindrops in a well
Paladin tribe, break beat elitists
Element five
Fully sold on operation
Jeopardised on my survival
I will survive when sprayed by heavens liquid ammunition
I'll survive when betrayed by my brethren's wicked ambitions
I'll survive when grated with shut-eye sticky thickets and thorns
Born clutching a fistful
It hurts: morbidly blissful
Forms spiraling
Sovereigns bring the rise from the funnel;
A chorus line of blind crazes
Tap the water, find the tunnel

As skinny clique mechanics flock to block pick of the land
We stretch the earth around the canvas
Dragging stick in the sand
And pan the hell out
Amid your tireless bold
Behold that iris spits clips
Subtly on supremacy, therefore, blemishes me
Oh, the treacherous penalty centers me, renders me vague
Skating slalom through this churning murder columns

I am not entirely trained to undo the shame
And all I got's three pennies and a rusty mic unto my name
Unto my game, the father Siamese approach
To whose delinquent dichotomy
Cops Emerald City in wonderous novelty
Drink drum, sip a snare to spit a rigid sequence
That's when freak sons Fade to Black
Like these pretty pink lungs, slugger
Paper dolls facade as swash buckler. (yeah)
Bounty hunt the front to document the frosh cluster
I am structure with a smoke ring, militant distinction
With a cloak-and-dagger stagger prime directive
And all else burrows itself amongst drunken perspective. (c'mon)
Fade me. I flee the scene
Grippin' the missing link
Like chain gang escapees
(I'm sayin')
BUILD ME (me)
KILL ME (me)
We cadets hold determination
As property undeniably divine;
We leak passion for the noise
There is not a track to cherish
From he who lacks merit


And all I think about's the motion
Exerted to color mavericks alerted
Herd a billion nervous lost child prodigies home to flourish
Now taciturn facets burn open to yield malarkey navigator
When wrestled on fancy driftwood out the vessel
And i settle
A conquest:
Stamp it
Label it
Fresh. (fresh)

I, in turn, apply policies which require intrinsic merit. (uh)
Try to wallow down these yellow bricks with yesterdays appendix on hold;
Spot it like sky horizon, exposed to bar-codes
Load your fantasy
Interject a bad dream candidly
Blue in the face, through in the chase
Between myself and fame's embrace
Face engaging
Presence resonant with
Chiaroscuro atmospheric traps
Inhabit the land of denied clearance
(Yeeah)
Pigeon hold styles, drop similar
The course the corpse patients
Lacing non sequitur's that spittle off the chin. (spittle of the chin)
Upon the recognition, pilot soften up the grin
Spinning me dizzy, cold. Bending my city to hold water

Yeah, we got affiliates. Cadet merit and brilliance
Clever corporal(?) king-thing, crooked
I shrink, I sink into my book
It's, like, fury blew the scaffolding askew
And tainted curiosities allowed the freak show to continue

Forty thieves received the cue: commence blending a plan (yeah and that was spooky)
And decorate the dusk like henna to hand
We unknowingly sketched the pentagram by sending clans
Of caffeinated couriers upon a quest to run the perfect circle around a star

Bizarre pattern with a bad vibe
Like Jafar to Aladdin;
Pardon the carbon-based blaze
Amongst the stagnant trend frenzy
It offends me
Wait, aint it the liquid soul therapy?
I sip to grip a stationary pillar
Yet we slipped these boogie nights
Sucked wattage from rookie lights
Now you proud
I'ma be there when you rush in
Just to touch the mushroom cloud
Drink failure
Lord have mercy on their dreams...
Pretty pixels tend to trickle down the screen

Know what i mean? (I scream)
BUILD ME (me)
KILL ME (me)
We consider fresh soundplay we seek frighteningly close to extinct
My life line is an assignment:
To feed the arts my spirit and to bleed merit


The conclusion is subtle:
Huddled amongst hermitic gutter-bugs
Peasants, and drunks
Junkies to critics
Sick dictators, haters
Kings to alley urchins
Monarchs, narcs to liars
Circling the wild fires, (fires)
Live wires; I tend to plan an action less than orderly
In, with an otherwise uncommonly primer to normalcy torn, (torn)
These trades fade as cadavers due to conflicting data matter
First heard as remarkable is now labeled as unmarketable

Damn, thorn in my side...
Now the high five hives despised from feedings of alien seedlings, retreating...
Burst the threshold, make the vessel capsize
Then the hollering's of buoyant survivors
Treading evoke dreaded Leviathan
Dead it
Headed to crunch the world of MC etiquette
By dismantling mics prior to passing towards degenerates
How do you like that settlement? You feel that?
A maverick like myself bottles the creativity
Till the cocoon naturally peels back

This little light of mine shines
At a hundred billion times
The magnitude of every star
Within an ample sky sample
I alerted
My sole crusaders
To trade the games;
Prescribed them strict diets of DDT and Kelthane

It fester when ingested
Glorious vellum
Addressing helots to zealots
To Jezebel's to hellish felons
Granted my span of attention is not what it used to be
But most of y'all delinquents ain't amusing me no more...
