Ever felt like life is passing you by?

You're just crossing off the days?

Ticking down the time?
_______________________________________________________________

Ticking

Ticking down the time.
Nowhere at the speed of light,
Nothing in my mind.
A dream of futures past.
Precious in my heart,
But it never came to pass.
Rearranged all my drawers of memory's worn out socks,
Corrected all my broken lifetime's kitchen clocks.
Just ticking down the time.

Ticking down the time.
Backwards at the speed of life,
Burdened in my mind.
Who stole it all away?
The clarity of thought
That defined me yesterday.
Dusted all the volumes on my memory's shelf,
Time-lapsed photographic of my former self.
Just ticking down the time.

Tomorrow calls in shades of black,
I swear these walls are staring back,
We waltz our falls in spiral mime,
Just ticking down the time.

Ticking down the time.
Lights out on the road ahead,
Fog come down behind.
Ready to anoint
The corpse of a life history
Shrivelled to a point.
JPEG'd out the detail of the smiling years,
Algorithmically compressed into this room of tears,
Where I'm just ticking down the time.

Ticking

Built around a recording of an alarm forming the audio background to a hospital visit. Musings on dementia.

Turbulent word streams, erratic coherence
Urgent meanings frustratingly mislaid
Inner sense to outer muddle [innocence]
Interface to inner struggle [in your face]
Fragmented paranoia, translucent target, floating beyond the grasp of balanced conscience
Unviolated nuance beyond interpretation
Disjointed intelligence, resentful agitation

Agitation

My favorite Beatles song… since I can remember!! All recorded on “ touch” instruments @ GarageBand!!!

Strawberry Fields Forever ( The Beatles cover )

Listen w Headphones!

Always wanted to rework my old track called Error Code.
Saw Ian's open collab and added the beats!
This time I focused more on the added stuff and beats 
rather than IPG's flows.

Lyrics

Stars aligning I keep grinding
check the styles that I’m combining
try to get to know who I be
if you hear me then you feel me
are you ready—-now rock with me
now rock with me —-now rock with me
when do verses overlap
it’s so cool it’s called snowcapped

Give-and-take that’s tit for tat
the cool comments thanks for that
the contrast the impact
steadfast not typecast
The vibe being kickass
slow your row don’t move too fast
the real power is laid-back
I sure as hell don’t take no crap

When I flex it’s payback
dropping tracks just like that
rock with me it’s jampacked
back-and-forth then switch back
roll on out you scaredy-cat
or hang tight and interact
but I don’t do no contracts

Verse 1
This the take over —roll over —-retreat —-back down
or feel the impact whenever I’m around 
earn my crown from the deep ——-underground
started out local —-now I’m world renown
——————-I said—————
Takeover!!!—-got this shit on lock 
back down —-retreat —-roll over or not 
this the game closer—-watch me take my shot 
Hitting nothing but net——coming through Red Hot 
Nah—-it’s never any sweat—- styles unorthodox 
pull up sound check—now-that’s hip-hop 
underground not industry—- I’m going nonstop 

never really had a chance bro —————-
Can’t resist the allure——too much ammo
Designed —-made to evolve—- rise-up and grow
—Plant these thought in your head—-like it’s cornrows 
think twice —before you even try to—say no 
underground Hip-Hop——--kick ass combo 
explosive on impact ——check the afterglow 
the matrix been hacked—you —fucking with Neo
Just Delivering the fax ——mi amigo  
precision on the mic —Boom- a death blows
Backup cause ——-now I’m spitting nitro
power blast—ain’t Leaving nothing —but a shadows
And it’s peace over war———been my motto

Chorus 
🎵No limits— no hangup—no safety net
think it plan it and do it without regrets 
not the last brushstroke cause the paint still wet 
creating something from nothing that’s the art outlet🎵

got the mic step on—-combination weapon 
let the legend get on—-data mining brainstorm
anytime I come on—-dropping gems is the norm
feel the vibe transform—-born to win —move on
———if I do it —-I’ve gotta do it my way
—-throwing—down as always——- it’s my mainstay
murdering tracks —with each word——that—— I —-say—-
dividends adding up——————————-for a big payday
maniac— —-————-floating —flowing—like a manta-ray 
—-and if———they love it ———-I guess that—I’ll stay
for a while—putting styles—-on display—-
not stressing rhymes ——cause the——-rhythm’s —hitting———all day

Verse 1

🎵No limits— no hangup—no safety net
think it plan it and do it without regrets 
not the last brushstroke cause the paint still wet 
creating something from nothing that’s the art outlet🎵

The Takeover

Around - Dehaas / c r u m i u s - Disco Remix
I recorded this track in 2004 with my friend Gert-Jan from the Netherlands.
He originally composed this song, I added several instruments like the drums, strings and organ. In 2007 I did this disco version and Molly added some backing vocals.
Remastered by  c r u m i u s  in 2023
Enjoy listening and dance if you like!

Song recipe: Borrow chords from the CCR Songbook that my Dad gave me for my 12th birthday, play some distorted Elmore James guitar licks, shout some vocals, become a human beatbox, add black magic, press record.

Lyrics:
When John met the Devil
The Devil was in a hole
And the Devil said to John:
Give me your hand, any I will give you riches like you've never known
Just give me your hand, John
I'll give you riches like you've never known
I'll give you a brand new (to you)
Gently used mobile home
Oh, John, don't worry about the bad
Cause the bad sleep well
Every single night
I'll leave you lots of whisky and bones
With meat...
Meat on them bones!
You can have all the love that you want
From these bathing beauties
in this Devil factory
It's like a bad restaurant
That's not very good
But you can have all you want
Understood?
One man's good luck charm
Is another man's burden
One man's suicide tree
Is just another man's shade
John, I can give you guile
Vanquish demons
I can keep you in style
Indulge your Id ego
I'll help you keep it under control
Hey John, Let me out of this hole
Get me out of this hole
Give me your hand, John!
Your hand John
Lift me up and out of the hole

John Meets The Devil (Act 1)

-----------Dropping Name------

Chorus---
Am I here or there
am I far or near
your signals aren’t coming through clear…
——just call me
just call me
and you know i’ll be there

aint playing no games—full on flames
I refer to myself when I start dropping names
IPG1—Lou—Level One Up
It can’t get no better he’s the cream of the crop
That’s word to the letter

Stop pop and lock can’t hide from the vibe
come along for the ride let me be your guide

Is it—— The pen that I write with 
the ways that the rhymes hits ——
the headphones and lyrics 
Or cadres I flow with —- 
it’s now time to drop this 
On —the mic it’s a tight grip ——
that kick drum—-that won’t quit 
the sounds that I mix with ——-
let’s get it —-a tight fit
I ——listen and edit ——
then—- Blend and produce this
Ignite the track gets———lit—— 
Stand back as I rock this
aha -aha ——-awe shit

I bring fire to the game
Ignition to the flames
IPG1's the name----
That's Always been my aim
It's a scorcher-------so I gotta --heat it up
Im the author ---Gimme music nonstop
I flow hot ---------better make it HipHop
Off the top--- 
just like a volcano
Spreading fast---------
so ----you know ---like I know
-----Can't stop it ------it's a Raging  inferno
-------Blazing-------sweltering-------heating up--here we go
get engulfed ---there's no where to can hide bro
Just bob your head --the tracks on full auto
Fire storming— you should just call me Pyro

I Rock the beats——to make you move your feet 
the beat plus the rap style equal technique 
technique technique technique I’ll deliver 
style so cool I’m about to make you shiver

I Rock the beats—I Rock the beats—
I Rock the beats—I Rock the beats—

Chorus-----

I am the original concept the roots of it all
most started off big I started out small
Resistance is futile I can’t be contained 
try to keep me down you must be insane 
oh—-now I’m about to go viral 
like a full-blown tornado in an upward spiral 
keep growing with the music as if digitally installed 
my next upgrade will be a wake up call 

I Rock the beats—I Rock the beats—
I Rock the beats—I Rock the beats—
