BARZ on deck! Whack emcees kick rocks

lyrics

TONE DEF

Verse 1:
get busy like a swarm of honeybees
Stirring up quite a buzz
Close caption
bleep out cuss words
Poker face still get the custard
Cover up lackluster
loss luggage after
Getting tossed
suspicious characters
Can’t enforce candor outlawed
Here’s a glance at a world
Uncensored
Give your first born to be in
Border breaching
bought the bridge in Brooklyn
before seeing
breathe in bullock
nothing’s Beneath men
Especially where the buck stops
Blasphemy begins
Assault and Battery
brand flavored bland
grandstanding Caravan
scantily clads At first glance
Disrespect the craft
Can’t channel talent How sad.
The meek Inherit Incoherence
Lost their bearings
Bluetooth boom box blaring
Overwhelming with the beat
Blanketing creativity

Chorus: 2x
Sounds of metal bleed
Sad imogi’s all over the screen
Don’t applaud Be appalled
Better off tone deaf
Than to hear
What’s stirring up the horde

Verse 2:
Idle hands claw to be free
From the penitentiary
released on good behavior
Allegorically it means
Stride to be greater
Than the strife you came from
strong cadence requires
desire to defuse
flick the lighter burn the costume
Arise the artist
Forged by the flame
Life expectancy In the game
based On lives saved
Your Fans embrace
Lust and hate
That’s your legacy
Selling sizzle
From the Worst cuts of the steak
Streams can’t show degrees
Of marbling to maturity
Fictional imagery
Like butt cheeks in bikinis
giggle till silicone leaks
Subliminal messages
Misconceptions of beauty
Knee jerk reactions
Lead to mass incarceration
Doing the devils work
With inflammatory words
Watching turn tables burn

Chorus: 2x
Sounds of metal bleed
Sad imogi’s all over the screen
Don’t applaud Be appalled
Better off tone deaf
Than to hear
What’s stirring up the horde
