GET UP is an anthem for having faith through adversity, triumphing over all obstacles placed in our paths to achieve our dreams, believing in ourselves when no one else does, and never getting bitter about the fakery and hate we receive. When it seems nothing is working out we must reach for new heights, we must GET UP, PRAY UP & STAY UP

FREAKWHENSEE

Get Up

Get Up feat. Miss Primrose

I Am Here is a song of fierce self love and awareness; openly declaring one's beliefs as valid and necessary in a world filled with hate and division. I Am Here declares proudly that our unifying voice matters and that One Love is real. We see the humanity in all people and we believe all humanity should be free.

I Am Here

On Sept 26th 2014, 43 young men were disappeared by the Mexican government in collusion with a criminal cartel. These young men were students at a university and were on a bus headed to a protest when local police in Iguala, Mexico took them off the bus. The murders and disappearances that are endemic in Mexico are a result of America's failed "War on Drugs," and international trade and labor practices such as NAFTA. The combined total annual deaths from all illicit drugs is dwarfed by the amount of deaths each year from prescription drugs used as directed. Let that soak in for a minute. It is time we end the hypocrisy, end the prohibitions, cut off the power of the drug lords, and get these corrupt governments to stop peddling weapons and drugs.

This song is a PSA for the modern world filled with conflict, and financial inequality. The setting is a public speaking event, like a rally, march, protest or even a political compaign; the audience is very diverse and engaged. The message is "we are all one but the illusion of difference has made us all accept the belief that war and inequality are inevitable conditions of life. If we unified we could literally create an incredibly bountiful future for everyone."

Lyrics:
Crash the servers break the internet Faster further catch the silhouettes 
Master wordsmith tasked with higher purpose at your service and most surely blessed 
Mental of a vet this is atonement plus I got a bone with industry phoniness
No trolling this for grown men holding bets on whose best when it's this obvious 
Blog this non monotonous mandala populous poppin his collar n cuffs 
Hip hoppin poppa not an inch out of touch vinyasa and breathe maximize the cuts  
Miracle worker eschewing ignorance not merely insuring the bug out bag is enough
More lyrical and fitter cut out the fluff we can move off the grid I ain't gassing you up
Fasten your belts up your reps I'm raising rations Your satisfaction's my desire and passion
Hear it in my words see it in my actions my faith is proven in my works who's asking?
Your Gods ought to tell you they already know I'm nine heavenly bodies with divine flow
Unarmed and peaceful increase you tenfold the thief in the night who stole the show
I know the game so I go it alone bro survey the street change lanes and break in your home slow
Data got bags of beats for Mega's poems yo and we will bring you into or out of your zone
anytime Anyplace any stage I roam oh I connect with the trap punch and kick your dome 
Snares and snaps for my enemies claps with the chrome leave you with the shakes and rattles for your bones  
Life is painful and poems are special spaces words that resonate create oasis
Oasis safe spaces no racists or fakeness your favorites are spaceships the matrix and ancients Oasis (oasis oasis oasis)
They say he out of place in this version of reality question everything don't take life casually
I'm actualizing so ascension happens rapidly stay humble stay hungry they say passively   
A grain of sand on its course in the sea There's no forcing in me or conforming to be 
A grain of sand on its course in the sea no forced humility I'm more than you can see
We sold it all for the promise to be free Was bought and sold never properly freed
We stole their oil  for the pumps that we feed and sell this calling when it probably should be free
Oasis safe spaces no racists or fakeness your favorites are spaceships the matrix and ancients Oasis (oasis oasis oasis) 
I've seen it all man I been here before stood at these gates and walked through those doors
Filled up these plates ate and scraped it off then cooked up another round and shared even more
My honesty's refreshing the workshops are raw intensely disconcerting who's keeping score
Max points finding what you here for max points finding what you here for
Oasis safe spaces no racists or fakeness your favorites are spaceships the matrix and ancients Oasis (oasis oasis oasis)
Oasis safe spaces no racists or fakeness your favorites are spaceships the matrix and ancients Oasis (oasis oasis oasis)
Oasis safe spaces no racists or fakeness your favorites are spaceships the matrix and ancients Oasis (oasis oasis oasis)

Lyrics:
Verse 1
There's no debating it's one blue planet we gotta share it
This little rock in space is third base it's how God planned it
Souls are commanded some understand it some don't pray
Please over stand this it's greed and lust I cast away 
They manufacture in private poisons as public goods 
The finest fight prison pipelines and gentrified hoods  
I flunk polluters flinging fat F's for fish kills  
Foreclose on factory farms and forage for a meal 
Forever fervent in my defense of the feminine
Mother Earth and her medicine messages from forever when
Ancestors were the residents thankful there is evidence
In texts and monuments and warnings of what's next      
How it all connects glacial melts and cleared fields
How will my lungs heal how will my lungs heal?
God's willing we kneel or sacrificially be vegan
I Stand for Peace and sign the Paris Climate Agreement 
Seek meaning in every meeting completing and not competing
Believing and not deleting scientific truth and teachings 
My belief's based in the fact that true faith takes works 
Manmade climate change is real let's take care of the Earth
Chorus
Mother Earth is on the rise you know
She's been abused and getting tired
It's all up to us to make right you  know 
Everybody arise everybody arise (2x)
Verse 2
I say peace to every single being who can feel me
Please let the flaws of man recede freely
I'm not taking any I leave these jewels and I'm Betty
That's bouncing anti war announcements and I'm jetty
Get out of here I'm for all the people I'm allowed to be
I'm in here can't nobody take this person out of me
You in here you about to hear what we about to see
A future for all our future generations harmony
Gardens don't need guarding no more greed no more misogyny
My gawd this modern world is an assault on our arteries  
Gaia's been downgraded and garnish-eed for our fancy fees  
Imagine walking and running for hundreds of miles and still you can't be free     
Fill the streets fill the squares make this heaven on Earth 
This is real facing mass extinction what could be worse
This is real facing mass extinction let's do the work 
This is real facing mass extinction let's break the curse
Put science first for the Earth the only one that we got
Then go to synagogue, church and mosque and pray a whole lot
My belief's based in the fact that true faith needs works 
Manmade climate change is real let's take care of the Earth 
Chorus
Mother Earth is on the rise you know
She's been abused and getting tired
It's all up to us to make right you  know 
Everybody arise everybody arise (2x)

Megaciph is a socially conscious writer using his music to address social issues, advance progressive thinking and heal himself. A veteran, a husband, a father, a home chef and a voice for the voiceless Megaciph carries the banner of peace throughout his work and life. Through his music selections and the writings we are transported to a place of deep feeling thereby allowing the process of healing to begin.
In 2006 he self published his first solo album, The Graduate Program. In 2008 Megaciph enrolled at The New School University to begin post graduate studies in Nonprofit Management. Three years later in 2011, he self published his sophomore solo album, Migration of the Soul’d Kind and completed his M.S. Nonprofit Management with a focus on Arts and Culture.

From November 2010 until March 2013 Megaciph founded and hosted The Vital Movement in Manhattan's Lower East Side; a weekly open mic/concert event that provides independent artists with a viable community for sharing their art. As an independent artist and promoter Megaciph put together hundreds of shows, gave thousands of artists a stage, and brought in talent from as far north as Toronto and as far south as Zimbabwe. At the same time he was working full time at the Harlem Children’s Zone as a teaching artist; teaching NYC youth to write poetry, rap music and the finer points of performance. Megaciph holds a BS in Composition and Rhetoric, with a minor in Music Management, 2006, from Georgia State University and a Master’s in nonprofit management, 2010, from The New School University. 
​
In 2014 Megaciph published CIVILiAM; an album inspired by his four years of service in the USMC. The album is filled with true stories and anecdotes from his tours in Okinawa, Cuba and service here in the states. With plans for the next few albums already brewing for an ever growing body of work Megaciph has stayed a consistent force in the Hip-Hop universe; releasing his first mixtape in 2015 The Now and Later Mixtape vol. 1 quickly followed by the 14 track collaboration with producer James Data titled CodeSwitching which landed Megaciph a coveted distribution deal on the AWAL record label, and the journey into sound continues. Through the pandemic Megaciph pens and publishes multiple singles and two more albums between 2018 and 2022 tackling the issues of the time from the Black Lives Matter uprising on the single BLM: America In Style, the COVID19 pandemic and numerous other social issues on the Steve Wallace produced album Dirty South Chronicles, and of course the attempted coup of 2020 on the album CHAKRAS 2.0. 
Stepping into 2024 Megaciph is poised for an industry takeover as the popular wave shifts back to the positive/uplifting music this artist is known for. His forthcoming release FREAKWHENSEE crosses generations and bends genres delivering messages of daily life, fatherhood and the big stage dreams of an independent rap artist who won’t stop, don’t stop! #hiphoppapoppa
