Lyrics:


“God level tings man”

I find myself standing beside myself on matters about myself how do I guard myself from myself
I always want more
I sing this last song for ya’ll

I find myself standing beside myself on matters about myself how do I guard myself from myself
I always want more
I sing this last song 

How do I guard myself from myself
Kilos fell with my health
I stood without help for so long
I haven’t held another hand for so long
‘cause for so long we held on to pain so prolonged
the prologue of my story
features gory details and crooked females
and shifty friends
I walked the path
with a girl I call my broken half
we didn’t match
I guess I was never quite the catch
what’s that thing the say about opposites
when one’s negative 
best believe the other positive
she got caught by the hounds
right around the same time by friend got caught with amounts
of coke
and no amount of hope could save him
he was doing a bid 
they out in England and that’s how he lost touch with his kids
I like to stay in touch with my kid
Pull up a chair for my younger self and ask him what the relevance is
we grew up drinking like fish 
and death was just another day a black kid was found in a ditch
the church wanted us to worship but we built war ships that moved weight in neighbourhoods
like human fork lifts
I never pushed drugs myself
but I know many a drug dealer that would have died without my help
I guess that makes me an accessory
but would you call us friends if you ever saw the devil standing next to me
I didn’t thinks so, I didn’t think it at first
I figured fuck it I’d just wing it at birth
I lifted the curse of the angel of death
they hate the finesse
but wonder what’s next
but why do I stress about these non-factors
they rap about bling they’re all backwards
but me?
man I’m the fucking king of all rappers
I was supposed to go but I chose to stay
the only dude that can match me is Allain Villet (Ali that Dude)
gave him a choice own the whip or you can play valet
he agreed so Black Vulcanite was formed that day
wrote songs that day
hoping they write 
hoping they like
verses from an MC who chokes on the mic
because all I’ve ever had was a fucking idea
couple of photos of my mom that I kept as a souvenir 
trying to retrace my steps
I wonder if she got my text
see “I love you”
that’s the last message I sent my ex
tell her “Clare I hope fair better in your years, better than your peers, sorry for the tears”
I’m sorry mama
We all make mistakes I guess we all trying
a song about life and I called it the Art of Dying
should have called it the art of lying 
in a den of starving lions
at the feet of fucking giants
I’m running I’m out of time..but I’ll just wait here though, I’ll just wait here for a new day
Art of Dying! Black Future

Warrior’s Code: A story of redemption 

[Admit it, I am I not much better than you]
[laugh]
[Well I guess that you would be the only one foolish enough who would dare to come hear, you’ve got courage]

I’m in a mood of sorts trying to find a place to record
and redeem myself son that lost the family sword
so many rappers, tried to shock me like faulty adaptors
revenge story learned the face of all my attackers
and went after them, killing everyone of them I saw
I made right all the things I couldn’t prove by law Vincent 
at night I burned incense and heightened all senses remember all lessons
I’ve come a long distance since spent nights under moons like giant headlights
win ten fights in real-life never a website
pace move slower, boa constrict Noah
kill the master of beasts meet the new master of beats
and now the old master’s dead and I assume the mantle
I’m Baby Moses Floating Down the Okavango
man who can phase me? I’m feral like wolves raised me
I’ve got the Will, I said I’m Ferrell like whites raised me 
no matter whose barrel is aimed it’s locked safety
safely tucked in, careful whenever hugging 
cos that’s when they pull the blade
it’s hidden in the braids, the fireworks, the distractions from the parade
they steal your gaze
as the knife it pierces armor, who will avenge me
that’s why I call my son Karma
who will attend me, my whole life they tried to end me man, yo, my whole life they tried to end me

As the world turns, I keep screaming let the world burn
and curse my enemy’s ash until it’s all urns
cos when it’s all set and done, what’s the altern
we ain’t got shit but the warrior’s code

now as the world turns, we keep screaming let the world burn
and curse our enemy’s ash until it’s all urns
so when it’s all set and done, what’s the altern
we ain’t got shit but the warrior’s code

I found a sword with a magic garden, an old man said I beg your pardon
this sword is forged from warrior’s souls you’ve got to earn it son
and so I trained until the winter come
but I’m still haunted by my troubled past
and so I let off a double gasp
and prepare for the final task
it’s Madlib the way the vinyl blast
master summons me in a hurry
it’s time to see if I’m worthy
we’re sparring but it looks like he’s really trying to hurt me
but as his coming towards me
I finally realize what the words mean
I’m the chosen one if I choose to be it
so I defeat him with a move
I didn’t know that I could use
the surprise in his eyes, he didn’t know that he could lose
the master and the student part ways
the mutual respect that part stays
I’m walking miles away but I decide I should stop at a rented car place
I get something cheap and I start heading north
with my new sword it’s time to see what life has in store
no more battling niggaz with support that’s half way
only hanging with babes that look like Anne Hathaway

As the world turns, I keep screaming let the world burn
and curse my enemy’s ash until it’s all urns
so when it’s all set and done, what’s the altern
we ain’t got shit but the warrior’s code

now as the world turns, we keep screaming let the world burn
and curse our enemy’s ash until it’s all urns
so when it’s all set and done, what’s the altern
we ain’t got shit but the warrior’s code
