"Consumption"

(feat. Aceyalone)



[Prevail]

dukes in my horizon pass the time of day with me

dukes in my horizon pass the time of day with me

dukes in my horizon pass the time of day with me

the earth's surface height is global

so watch the stealth sport

I freed you to the odd of firearms

I was a specimen of near perfection in a college professor's pod

now I'm the only thing you should be fearing for the next millennium clearing

if only time will tell then I'll tell time

no secrets like he doesn't know

I throw beggar's bullets at baley's barn

there'll be bullets over Broadway for all of our faults



[Aceyalone]

people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones

people who live in glass houses don't throw stones

people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones

because they risk having boulders crash down on their lovely homes

thin wind rain sleet snow cones come showering through your roof

you need a fine toothed comb to find the truth

well my house ain't made of glass and my chariot ain't no pumpkin

I'm not a backyard bumpkin I'm from the concrete slab

where people taking anything and everything that they can grab

what's so bad is a whole lotta grabbin

a lotta jar jabbin

gremlins, goblins, rappers squabbling

amongst the ranks from the punks to the drunks

to the monks to the saints

keep your eyes on your oxygen tank

the ears you ain't

either you can or you can't

a heartbeat start skip stop off crank you go blank....



[Madchild]

the fascination of the infinite consumes me

the fascination of the infinite consumes me

the fascination of the infinite consumes me

vitality to hurt you all in virtual reality actual natural plants enhanced

my words are crystal clear

deep intensified trance in a relaxed atmosphere

optional imagery high tech focal reprocessing

metallic existence roams through the galaxy

trails of stardust remain I crush you palace and fallacies

warlords who swung swords

now hide behind steel shields from the battle field

mortal weaponry stays concealed as they kneel

once my power cosmic's revealed



[Prevail]

I'm the piccadilly of the carnival

the unharnessable remarkable, the sheath that holds

the arguably truest tempered sword in the western world

I'm ahead of my time and I'm heading your way

a word of warning

the world is turning

torquing and contorting

while a ball of gas is burning

meteor shower warnings leaving grind and grit and granite winding

the second hand towards the finding of tablets

for derelicts and martyrs puppeteers and marauders

juggernaughts and argonaughts

who are sparking irons to butter into waters uncharted..



[Madchild]

now into the labyrinth of madchild's amusement

more intense than the shining you're in a difficult course

feel the pressure from all angles of prev's centrifugal force

unremorseful sorcery firing flames more frequent

and strengthen the attacker and black magic clashing in sequence

my activities are extra curricular one particular

immaculate masculine muscular rap spectacular

cohesion casting curses and articulate verses



[Aceyalone]

what do you do when there's no response to your distress signal

when your SOS is busy is he dead or alive

since I put my mind in overdrive

I've derived this method of meshing and molding

shaping and holding on

to this golden microphone

alone in the wilderness

skill less yet fearless

I've experienced your experiences once already

now once you're ready

I'll re-dream your dreamscapelandscapeskyscrapeskydive

in a swan lake chasing beat breaks we can take a cake walk

through my program and talk

megabites gigabites kilohertz

and electric inserts

I can pole vault with a lightning bolt over the wall of china

and cruise my cruise liner

tryingtofindafinerrhyme and if I decide to sink your

lusitanian there'll be pandemonium mania

drown in to my aquarium terrarium....



[Prevail] dukes in my horizon pass the time of day with me

[Aceyalone] people in glass houses, don't throw stones

[Madchild] the fascination of the infinite consumes me

[Aceyalone] consumption....
