Verse1
so many rhymes -written---styles bitten
Tracks so sick -they'll leave you bed ridden
Word play written with -shadow-rhymes hidden
visions -That occur with -lethal--precision
insight for dayzzz--experience that pays
you'll be amazed- rhyme after rhyme--phrase after phrase
how the hell he do that—and the message conveys
cohesion on the track I’mer set it ablaze
Another Track turnt up Set this one on re-play
yeah -I got it….yeah -I got it like that

——-adlib

Verse2
Let's pick up the pace -Dropping bass in ya face
Locking haters in place- Rocking the whole damn place
Kicking ass…..more---Bass!!!!----more---Bass!!!!
let’s keep it going!!!
I'll share-The knowledge keep the drumbeat flowing
Get yourself a taste —-a full embrace
rhymes tighter than the knot -on top your shoelace
Guarantee! —to put a smile back on your face
Gimme some space- Gimme some space!
Unplugged!—so-why not try to interface
Addicted to the sound -Like it's free-bass
like coke!—the real thing-without the aftertaste
more--be Tha beat----- more-be Tha -Bass!!!!------more-be Tha-Bass!!!!

Verse3
All I've been through-leads to this time-this moment
Grinding night and day-while most lay dormant
Always bring my best-dress to impress
Full court press-the opposition seem ---stressed
I stay intentional-multidimensional
Verse after verse-totally exceptional
wait a sec---here’s a -reality check
bet a bottom dollar that a brother don't sweat
Go ahead groove on-ain't done yet
Rock another beat-so my haters —upset
Track is getting ---lit like a --------Newport cigarette
why the confusion y'all—-too--unconventional
must be delusional-Call it phenomenal
solid ambition-creative composition
adjust your position -cause I'm Still on a mission
track them down --take them out friendly disposition
grab the track press play -sit back and listen

Verse4
When the beats on time ain't no axe to grind
I just do my thing it's easy to unwind
Lemme rock the beat solid I'll take you for a ride
If you're just another Hater - hello ---goodbye
Racking up the numbers where the hell they're gonna hide
Really don't matter no more Mr. nice guy

Repeat-Verse1

Outro
Volatile like nitro—don’t shake or stir
Wanted signs posted-don’t let the lines blur
Creative juices flowing so go for what you know
This is what I was born for so come on let’s go!

IPG1 - Bouncing Off The Beat  (AudioBake Mix)

Almost on a daily basis I am told by one Soundcloud user after another that my music is crap, that I have zero talent....what do you think? Are they right, or is it a case of sour grapes?

With so many people making music--literally tens of millions--there is a serious overcrowding problem, creating a wall of white noise; to stand out from that background, a musician must bring something very different to the table :)

THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER
BETTER THAN US
THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER
BETTER THAN US

THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
BUT THEY ARE FREE TO THINK
WHATEVER THEY WANT
IT’S WHAT THEY DO WITH THOSE THOUGHTS
THE WAY THAT THEY CHEAT AND EXTORT

THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
SIMPLY BECAUSE, WELL, SIMPLY BECAUSE….
OUR VALUE DETERMINED BY THE THINGS THAT WE OWN
BUT WE’RE SIMPLY ROLLING STONES
WHO HAVE GATHERED NO MOSS

THINKING THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
WELL, IT COMES AT A COST
AND WE’RE ALWAYS THE ONES
WHO MUST SHOULDER THE LOSS

ALWAYS BEEN THIS GULF
BETWEEN THE FIRST AND THE LAST
THIS GREAT DIVIDE
WILL NEVER BE A THING OF THE PAST

EXPECTING OUR SUBSERVIENCE
BECAUSE IT’S WHAT WE’RE TAUGHT
WE DON’T FORGET OUR PLACE
THAT WE’RE NOT REALLY THEIR SORT

WE OCCUPY THE SAME TIME
BUT NOT THE SAME SPACE
A SOCIAL NORM TABOO
WOULD BE COMING FACE TO FACE


THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
LOOKING DOWN FROM ABOVE
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE
BUT THINKING THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
MAKES US BETTER THAN THEM

LOOKING DOWN, LOOKING DOWN
LOOKING DOWN ON US

THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
LOOKING DOWN FROM ABOVE
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE
WE’RE THE UNTOUCHABLE ONES
WE’RE DISPOSABLE SCUM
ONE STEP UP FROM ZERO
THE CONTEMPTIBLE ONES

THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
LOOKING DOWN FROM ABOVE
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE
THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
WE DON’T DESERVE OPINIONS
DON’T DESERVE TO FEEL THE SUN
FOR THIS IS THEIR DOMINION AND
WE MUST LIVE OFF THEIR CRUMBS

THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
LOOKING DOWN FROM ABOVE
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE
BUT THINKING THEY ARE BETTER THAN US
MAKES US BETTER THAN THEM

BREAK

WHAT THEY FEEL

LOOKING DOWN FROM ABOVE
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE
DESERVING OF CONTEMPT
WE’RE THE CONTEMPTIBLE ONES

WHAT THEY FEEL
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE

ALLOWING US TO BREATHE
THE SAME AIR THEY BREATHE
IS A PHILANTHROPIC ACT TO THEM
THAT’S WHAT THEY BELIEVE

WHAT THEY FEEL
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE

WE’RE THE UNTOUCHABLE ONES
WE’RE DISPOSABLE SCUM
ONE STEP UP FROM ZERO
WHAT THEY FEEL
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE
WHAT THEY FEEL ISN’T LOVE

THE CONTEMPTIBLE ONES
WE DON’T DESERVE OPINIONS
DON’T DESERVE TO FEEL THE SUN
FOR THIS IS THEIR DOMINION AND
WE MUST LIVE OFF THEIR CRUMBS

THEY THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN US

Nephilim

Born of darkness
Shadow conspiracy
Embodiment of Evil
Rebellion’s cursed seed 

[chorus]
Don’t believe the evil report,
do not be deceived
Over the powers of darkness
victory is achieved

When giants walked the earth
with hearts as black as night
Endless hunger for flesh and blood,
they left none alive

Built altars to false gods,
sharpened weapons of war
Brought murder to mankind,
sacrifices and horror

And when their flesh had died,
an end of their cursed line
Their demonic spirits roamed
with hatred for mankind

Roaming the shadows,
whisper hate and lies 
Plant seeds of corruption,
masquerade as our minds

Now demons roam the earth,
spirits as black as night
Deception is their weapon,
but it is no match for the light

[chorus]
Don’t believe the evil report,
do not be deceived
Over the powers of darkness
victory is achieved

Walking in circles

It feels like forever
but I keep going on
I find myself 
walking in circles

Mind keeps spinning
with what came before
as my feet wear a groove 
in the floor

It’s hard to admit
When we are wrong
We must try because 
the truth will go on

We walk in circles
Without end
Until we realize
We’ve started again

Walking in circles
Until we all fall down

This useless mental game
gambles for an answer
Or for someone
or something to blame

If we can’t forgive others
We will never find
forgiveness or trust

it’s not too late
To break the chains of hate
that bind us to this wheel
and grind us down to dust

We walk in circles
without end
Until we realize
we’ve started again

[chorus]
Walking in circles
Until we all fall down

Logical Thought (FRAWSTAKWA & Cosmic Keanu)

Break My Reality

I don't spend time thinking about what I create, no formulas, no recipes, no planning, no genre in mind, I just go wherever the first few notes take me, pretty much improvised; I tend to go with the first idea that pops into my head; judge for yourself how that pans out!
>
In order to relate to your music most listeners need to be able to pigeonhole it, if they can’t do this because you create tunes that are unique they'll likely dismiss your creativity, absorbing it years later when other musicians, believing they got there first, stumble on your sound!

No followers, no listeners, by that measurement I’ve failed miserably, however, I have succeeded  in remaining true to authentic creative self, underground in this world, #SixFeetUnderground the next!
>
These tunes are not fillers, they are seriously funky, but more importantly, they are not samey, each tune has its own identity! Only one way to find out if that boast is a hollow one, and that involves listening to, not just one, but several tunes!
