MAVI- DUNK TANK

[Verse]

Knife-edge thoughts, my mind sharp, scalpel slices,

Pen bleeds ink, drips pain in devices.

Crisp kicks hit ribs, beats cut the air thin,

Vinyl crackle whispers, ghost of where I’ve been.

Shadows on my wall playing tag with the moon,

Midnight’s a barber, trims dreams too soon.



[Chorus]

Cutting shadows, trimming lies,

Edge of truth where the sharp blade lies.

Cutting shadows, trimming lies,

Every scar a story that the soul won’t disguise.



[Verse 2]

Soul’s a samurai, slashing through the static,

Life’s a Rubik's Cube solved in manic patterns erratic.

Old tape hiss fights the hiss in my mind,

Blade on wax, I carve out time.

Echoes in the chamber, gunpowder soul,

Boom-bap heartbeat keeps the cosmos whole.



[Bridge]

Dust and fragments, they dance in the groove,

Truths in the cuts where the scissors move.

Piano keys weep under needle’s weight,

Each loop a chapter, every snare my fate.



[Chorus]

Cutting shadows, trimming lies,

Edge of truth where the sharp blade lies.

Cutting shadows, trimming lies,

Every scar a story that the soul won’t disguise.

Cutting Shadows
