Come on, I never chose to be forced into hope's end
And know there are doors that don't close when they're opened
They're joking. The golden child? Chosen? All lies
I'm not the best with a vest, just the rest ain't alive

If survival was the plan for a draftee in hell
Why'd they slap me with a scattergun and pocket full of shells?
Dumped three hundred others into bellies hella beasts held
Now these motherfuckers wanna tell me they believe?

Well, I'm not even supposed to be here
No dotted line signed, just a life commandeered
By a rifle point, steered to what they called my career
So yeah, I'd met monsters before the "real" ones appeared
Kinda weird how it wasn't these demons I'd feared

What is it even that's making me try to stay alive at this point? 
In time we all die but life stopped when I allegedly then became "employed"
Now that authority's destroyed but I'm suck in this horrid abyss 
Devoid of a reason to keep on but boredom I guess? Or maybe I'm simply annoyed?

Knee deep in the deadliest voids with enemies coming in infinite waves
Simpler days I'd grown to forget, won't expect a legitimate grave
Surviving for nothing but spite, or something? I might just confess I'm depraved
Enough to make it a game, till ogres and fiends are mistaking my bullets for rain

I mean, it's not like pain affects me after what the government's done
Ripped me out of my home, I never will hold my daughter and son
Beaten down till cold enough that the meat in my ribs came to frost
So we'll see if this hell hath a fury to match but a fraction of rage that I've brought

VPC 7 Round 2

ExtraDial [Damn Selene, lizardgrove] - slipgayt

SlothdubzAndRonin [Only One Ronin] - Ennui

Some people find it hard
getting along with their own thoughts
The mind can Frankenstein the worst
Or make the perfect postcard
So far-
From home
Readily known as vacay
But Paradise can only paint the pros
Before the Mayday
*Everything seems fine*
Until you find you live the same day
Repeat without the conflict
You avoided in the first place
Sleep in a bed of roses, but
roses come with thorns
You can find the peace inside,
Just outside the comfort zone


La di da di da
You can smell it on me
My repression, Mild depression
With an air of ennui

La di da di da
Good afternoon, good morning
another day in paradise
Conveniently distorting


You believe me
If I mean it
I said it
They call me the Alfred
That makes you the future
Thats Terry McGinnis
Both feral
And vetted

Not too old to get tested
But Fuck the repetitive
Edit
Put your whole heart in the beat
You embedded in
You got message you gettin
you get in your head
Just to end it kid
Thats why you move
ten steps ahead of it
Make music your medicine
Chew threw the game
Like the venison

Fighting for a life
So I can live in a box
Cut off availability
Afraid to get blocked
Lofty in the sky
But the storm struck different
Rock paper scissors
With the wrong ammunition
Never even factored In anyone's premonition
Simulated systems
Keep on glitchin
Plot twist-
Turns all come unannounced
I gotta shell on my back
In the crib named kami house

VPC 7 Round 3

SlothdubzAndRonin [Only Onle Ronin, Slothdubz] - Ennui

The music plays on in an empty venue
Everyone gone, just waveforms and you
The music moved on why do you continue
Everyone everyone everyone leaves you

Familiar setting, familiar repetition 
No longer new kid on the block or the new edition
Not quite holding the ambition of a hungry house musician
Single player first person shooter lacking ammunition

They never listen, they never really did
You tell that to yourself that you did it for your id
But that bullshit blows beyond a little fib
White lie from this white guy you did it cause it fit

But sweat and age fades the suit, the stage
Made for youth, you played games with truth, you save
Face and lose, you fake grace but you age like a dying fire
You don’t burn bright, you burn out, expire

The music plays on in an empty venue
Everyone gone, just waveforms and you
The music moved on why do you continue
Everyone everyone everyone leaves you

Camille stopped showing up for D&D
And MC 117 dipped out on verse three
Stalara gave feedback on  your song, unpolished
Alphonse responds, interested, demolished
  
And all of this while Beaker found you lacking
Him and Lil Yazz still waiting on their backing
Benefits, a Kickstarter Katastrophy
PZ, my twinsie, you beautiful baby, just, don’t listen to me

Perstrami Persona [Steve, Zilla Persona] - Everyone Leaves You

The truth begets marooned  adrift
Lost the plot
Listless lost the list, 
In My mission I’d become remiss
Clutched in my fist and It all just slipped
I even doubted my purpose
On purpose and watched it eclipse
Just watched it eclipse

Rather die seeking land
Than leave my bleached bones in the sand
Seek getting seen until the bitter end
Lost and never found 
Lost and never found 

So I fell in a well of my own design
Grief regret and weight of the lie
I told myself “I tried”
Truly did I? No.
I no longer ride the waves
The echoing phrase
lost and never found
lost and never found

Obvious Corruption [Obvious Lee, Cosmic Ray Corruption] - Never Found

Pardon my smiling,
AJB live at the island,
Live at the island

Plane crashed, marooned, spent 400 moons
With my best friend, but still I need some elbow room,
We never found our jet or any of the wreckage, strange,
How the hell do you lose a plane?

Stuck on a lonely island off the coast and I feel me roasting
Out in the sun, just about to see my ghost when
I notice something stuck in the base of a tree,
Grab a couple sticks, we’ll try to pry it free

Gotta give thanks, amen, we caught a break,
Single by The Winstons, flash megabyte 8,
We've got enough battery for just one take,
Oh that only says 4 megabytes... great

Turn up the juice, let's put it use,
I'll send an S.O.S to the world, you produce,
So get ready for the last thing you'll hear from us,
JK, we'll bump tracks for the next 30 years plus

Pardon my smiling,
Kyle Vice live at the island,
Live at the island

I built a raft out of mp3s and emptied me
Inside of the lyrics, but it crashed at sea,
Impractically, it didn't sound like trash to me,
But I didn't fit in the box for how it has to... grr

Screw iambic pentameter, try to fit a song in
These confined parameters,
Confined to an island I can walk its diameter
Faster than you can say, "Boom shacka-lacka-lacka!"

Jack Merridew, not scared of you, I don't care if you,
Can sing a High C, mmm,
I thirsty, I hungry, I tired,
I can't think straight enough to talk inspired

I use rap just to gauge my emotional state,
Over the past year life is… not great.
Want a song about an island? That's my life,
But I can't use the verbs I need to express that, come on, play nice

Mechanical Peasants [AJB, Kyle Vice] - Scurfy With Brine

Blockbuster rewind, VCR...prime...
tapes aligned on the shelf, snacks near the blinds, 
Behind, my dad with the membership stand in line, 
For the game I wanted to find, time around 8 or 9 
What I, embedded with, having a Sega Genesis, messages in my head, 
If I knew the time I invested in, question, if I wanted a side stroller or something to learn a lesson in, got the X-men, the rage quits worth mentioning

Word to the clerk, ...only for 2 days 
If you roll in after the 3rd the account fees will raise, 
higher than the lands appraised if it keeps acquiring at your age
Phone calls to the house, parents...enraged so...

Got home and started playing like a champ…
But forgot the next day I start to leave for summer camp, And that, for 6 weeks,
Much more than 2 days, 
The store now making calls, voicemails press-n-played…so…

**dastardly turntable glitch**
To persuade my dad return the game, but he forgot so the game case would lay, 
I come back and look with such a confusion, 
The game still there, no callers in the ID for solution…

Come to find out to the story there lies more, they tore down the plaza, and they had to close the store, rode past the lot and it really struck a chord, 
Cause I still got the rental and now I…34

-Hook-
Once in while it comes to my mind for the things that I went through, 
And then I wish that I could go back, and wish that everything would be brand new but…

i.o.u., i.o.u. Blockbuster, i.o.u. x2 

-End-
