DOOM - Melody (James Frank. Remix)

(9-3-13)

loose change that's been rattling in my pockets,
a quarter from the '90s, a nickel and some pennies,
a couple random keys on a ring like i'm a locksmith,
and several scraps of paper with this pen that's written plenty/
of these verses, this city is a circus, and i'm just sitting
back behind this black-hooded veil like its a burqa,
rap game sherpa when i'm rock-climbing mountains
i'm the best you never heard of every syllable i murder/
working hard on the daily as the planets spin
sandwiching careers and these businesses i'm managing,
whack rappers getting nervous cause i'm slamming 'em
like Hulk Hogan leave 'em on the mat needing Anacin/
this shit is damaging like UV exposure
got some SPF-50 and some beats up in my holster,
some speeches in a folder and a leaf inside my notebook,
fuck a boulder got the globe upon my shoulders//

getting older but my mind's staying sharp like a blade
made out of adamantium filaments,
killing sessions when i step up to the mic
i'm the unsung hero like a hip-hop Gilgamesh/
spilling ink upon the leaflet,
i speak like a beat-making weed-smoking speaker eating T. Rex,
cheap decks bumping records on the nightly
and scouring the net for MC's trying to bite me/
no need to sight-see i've been around this atlas
through the music i've released making ill tracks for practice,
backflipping like an acrobatic verbal mad-hatter
as my pockets get fatter it's my unbirthday/
it's time to have some fun and surf waves
James Frank.'s the moniker and Saturn is my birthplace,
& you can call me the word mage... //

thought i'd throw my hat back into the STBB ring this week, being that i finally have some time off from school and all that nonsense.  enjoy this beat...or don't, and see if you can get me fired for offending your ears.

STBB#355:  Phil Robertson Is NOT a Fan of the Gays...Or the Ducks

i go by James Frankenstein, or James Frank. for short (with the period, please)...

i'm from Boulder, CO, 22 years old, and i make beats to rap over for fun when i'm not going to soul-sucking school to become a gen-u-ine, professional filmmaker guy.  i also make animations, direct, write, and sometimes act; but it all comes from the same place, which is an unconditional love for hip-hop and music in general.

here's the lyrics to this track:



And so it goes from the first to the last bar 
cutting traps out of tracks like I'm Admiral Ackbar, 
been rocking these sine wave sounds since I was 0 plus 
j-f and oz the best duo since the Cold Crush/ 
i'm folding bills like they're smallpox blankets while i 
bring down the house like a temple from the ancients, 
we're all mortal so my foot's in the portal 
bout to stab these other rappers with the horn of a narwhal/ attention, uh, ladies and germs 
kick this style here to Lumberton, Yellow Man to Laura Dern, i'm spitting music for the earthworms with Kirchner's palate in the palace keep the stage like a palisade/ 
chalice raised here's a toast to the new breed 
we do indeed adhere to the lessons of the Dudeist creed, Judas Priest up on the platter—sorta like a 
hey batter batter when I swing wolf's the mix master/ there's smicks in the rafters perched atop the king-sized bed sleepwalking like Professor Hector, 
heard your album bout that tec on the dresser 
still not impressed son no offense but learn the lesson/ 
that Charizma had to die for, cause murder over 
any type of material goods is an eye sore, 
I'm half man and half cyborg, hope to 
rock the bells for a while till I fade like a light board/ 
...never out of sight till the time's right 
digging in the crust for all the dinosaurs and trilobites, 
i clutch the mic with a monkey's paw gimme three 
wishes and a curse for every verse that i disperse/ 
upon the page like a wise sage, conducting all these 
gamma rays beaming from the birds to the manta rays, 
i'll tag with any can of paint that you give me—it's never pathetic my aesthetics are copacetic/ 
we need a medic up in here quick 
the treble and the kick are so thick that they're acting like an earwig embedded in the mix—heaven is a place on earth terra firma third rock from the burner bruce/ 
banner with a sledgehammer, black flag getting raised smoking headband kush that's by the bush-full, 
i'm in the back because i'm bashful, but never tried to 
shy away from glory that's a whole other story/ 
for another date another time, for now i gotta 
show myself out and start working on another rhyme, parsley sage rosemary when the flow varies, 
...it's a marriage of the soul and the clarity of/ 
strolls through the rarities we mold from the scary beast, i'm 'bout to shut this shit down like i'm Pericles, 
Heracles of this hip-hop scene 
any label not fucking with me is speaking heresy/
 
its not a parody, it's my world premiere... //
