[INTRO]
Tryna make this groove box
Gotta hit across the pads with new chops

[VERSE 1]
(If it’s off the chain then it’s lift off the record)

Pissed off the game when I switched altogether
No more ankle biters on these tube socks
Used to have riders to move stock from HQ to neighborhoods
Where the beneficiaries ain’t me and ain’t you
But now that it’s take-two
My disciplinary mission is having a breakthrough
The fruits of our labor should be more than escape routes
Please take a moment of silence for the late truth
Early birds are rising to fake news
What’s on the horizon but snakes who
Try and organize in corporations to shake you

Shoot…
(Who?)

You were never welcome–don’t expect any ‘thank yous’
They won’t have a hard time finding someone that can replace you
Even when you tell them all about the plank
They gon’ still be talkin ‘bout–“It’s a lake view!”

Shoot…
(Who?)

I’m tryna dumb it down all the way to the grade school
Better wisen up to the tricks of the trade school
Student of the game–I just wish I could trade schools
Money ain’t a thang–but if only we trade tools
Tryna make change, make dollars, or make fools
Either way–try to stay tuned

Shoot…
(Who?)

I’m tryna see the day that my man finally beat the case
Real talk–it’s in my DNA
So go ahead and spit these bars back to yourself like Issa Rae
Just saying–this is what I rap
Made something off of what I lack
Stay humble when I run my trap–ain’t mumbling
Make a dog yip off of what I yap
Talk ain’t cheap–this just what I tax
Can’t stay sleep–got one eye cracked
Tryna break free–that’s how come I snapped
Hold up…

[BRIDGE]
(Uh-oh!)
What the hook gon’ be?
I don’t need no hook on this beat

[VERSE 2]
(If it’s off the chain then it’s lift off the record)

Pissed off the game when I kept it all the same
Flipped the script and put numbers in my name
To get the gist we gotta dig into the blame
But in defense I got nothing to explain
So run tell that
I walk dogs in my sleep like I’ve been that cat
Got lost with the sheep and I just got back
Got next, got gas, but ain’t been no match

Ight…

Tryna spark flame–better spin that track
Got enough range–oughta tip that cap
Throw enough shade–I’ma send that back

Ight…

Get left you ain’t act right
Half-stepping in your pastime–
A certified method to getting weaponized
As a pawn caught up in the fast life

Right…

They wanna call the shots
But then wanna call it off
After they get a taste of the molotov tryna gaslight
(Woop-woop!)
Flow off the top like a halfpipe
(Woo-woo!)
Show doesn’t stop–we just pass mics
(Wo-wo!)
And pass rites
Man–life can’t boil down to no damn price

Shots in the jam might burst your bubble
Pop in the jab might burst your knuckle
Crossing the line might hurt your hustle
Sworn to the grind–don’t curse the struggle

Look…

I’ma work this muzzle when I disperse the huddle
Ain’t concerned or troubled over these turfs and tussles
You can stir the beef–I won’t jerk a muscle
Can’t disturb my peace–I prefer the puzzle

Look…

It’s murder by police in the streets to report
Murder over keys–so that’s why they breach doors
Murder over speech–what I need the beat for?
Murder over cheese–what I need the green for?

Huh…

Charge it to the game like I think it needs more
Charging up my brain like I think in C-4
Third eye open–what I need to see ffff

“I was a fan of music before I was ever a musician so sharing can feel awkward sometimes. It’s been important to me to only put out work I can stand behind with a smile face. I’m beyond excited that I find myself in a space where i’m proud to transmit my artistic impressions to the world and know I am walking in my purpose” -Demise Blue



Born in Houston, Texas May 23rd, 1991 Demise Blue has been a product of his musical surroundings since birth. From his great grandfathers church in Houston to his Mothers home church in Seattle these places of worship fostered his passion for melody, performance, and artistic mastery. Having participated in church choir and the usher board at a very young age as soon as he was allowed to pick up an instrument he chose the trumpet in the 5th grade.

After about 7 years of constant practice, travel, and performance with the trumpet Demise fell out of love with the band life and yearned to have less on his plate and try his hand at sports stardom. Quickly realizing the field was not his calling but yearning to compete he gave his shot at competitive Yu-Gi-Oh and truly flourished. Going state to state in between attending college Blue found his niche but something still was missing. The need to express himself grew louder so he began to write poetry. When poetry wouldn't suffice the creative hunger he began crafting songs with the aspirations of becoming a professional songwriter turned artist in the same vein as The Dream and Ne-Yo. Then came the moment he realized no one would take a chance on an unseasoned songwriter, he would have to become the performer he wanted to write for. So began the process of becoming a competent rapper. After countless hours of honing his craft he began to collaborate with various artists throughout underground Seattle scene while putting out solo material and performing live across the city.


Naturally a hip hop enthusiast with a melodic disposition, Demise has a knack for making listeners think back to a memorable hook or ad-lib days later. With an energy and enthusiasm that'll electrify any stage and give you sounds that you've never heard Demise Blue sure to become an artist you wont forget.

And So... By Demise Blue
