Featuring bad ass Buddhist Monk chants, Son of Steiner and a remixed beat from Anabolic.

It's a shame  
life's no longer the same
Somewhere along the way
mistakes were made.  

A different frame I've found
this pain that's present now
There's no going back, 
your mind made up, not changing how.

Retreat to realms of one
be safe no need to run
Wait peace will come
the sound of exodus of everyone.

Count days in weeks that've gone
Push thoughts to words of songs
Your bricks hold hardened bonds
I can't break-through to you beyond.

Hard work. Believing that you can break through
Hard work. To pursue the Bad In you
Hard work. Let me go a rounds  or two
I'm a Bad Ass. It's time to do what bad asses do  

I'm a break through to you
If it's the last thing I do.
Don't even try to reinforce 
I flex my fortitude

Words in rap are powerful
How do I know because et al has shown
Summon might from flows
With dopeness not disposed 

It's the purveyor of paths 
that must guide you within
No saviors will come to lift you out
Trust me my friend.

What's next is known
only by your own
Following protégés
await your return to home.

Hard work. Believing that you can break through
Hard work. To pursue the bad In you
Hard work. Let me go a rounds or two
I'm a Bad Ass. It's time to do what bad ass's do.

Out of the hellish inferno 
the disembodied soul is rebuilt to return home
A sacrifice of much and a hit to the ego
Your strength sourced from numbers of others like we know
