prod by Prod by Areo (@areobeats)

a cautionary tale about being too stuck in your ways to make a change

Lyrics:
we only get one chance
in this life
to get where were going
and get right
and oh how we'll try
to show you the way to love
there's only one way to love
and thats through you

when the days fin ally stop turning over who will you listen to?
forced to listen to long to the swan song of a man who spent his whole life dying
not even trying to live
just trying to give the best impression
and be sent to death
exonerated by a made up story
quelled by his very telling
in the days that follow there would be specific instructions for the grievers
in two categories
cowards and believers
though it was all his narrative
he chose to share it far and wide
with great pride and hubris
he was the rubric
a rubiks cube that was too hard for you
but really just a shallow man
not much to offer
so he would convince himself otherwise
otherize anyone whod compromise his character
what a character
beloved far and wide for his ability to shapeshift
he spent his days thinking of his mistakes
and his nights trying to drink them away
he conjured up stories to make it sound like
he was the one in the right
and most of the time he could believe it

never once thought of leaving
staying would be just the justification
just enough to call it tough love
so tough that there was no love ever
he hated his work, his kids, his life
but mostly himself

and all the rest was just reflecting him
showed no respect but expects your respect for him
Rejected all advise
If it isn’t praise it’s criticism
You could spend your whole life
trying to get through to a narcissist
He’ll only listen to himself

refuse any self help

go from empty
To anguish
To angry
to empty
And dump that weakness
in the wake of those he’d claim to love.
Because he couldn’t find it
for all the claims; he didnt mind it
when the days finally stopped turning over
when it was all over and he'd finally get to get through
hed be remisce that no one miss him
nobody was there with him
nobody wishing he was still there

Getting Through (Prod. Areo)

This is my sophomore release but most of the beats are older then the ones  previous Ep. They also more dark and harder.
This is why there's a time fore everything...so I had a time to chill, but now I need to go harder, so let's kill .

This hand can be iron or feather. This time it was iron.

Unspoken

Inspired by a wonderful trip to the ocean.

Lyrics:
Sky all garbled  
All my marbles lost
Marvel at the Tye dyed knots 
The Rorschach blots 
In cloud shape
A loud wide wake 
As I make my way 
I Say aloud “wake”
   
Is both what we leave behind 
And how we start the day 
Shame is an acquired taste
true
So is Rot 
So I’m really not surprised to see 
My tooth fall victim to my 
Bruxism 
I fuck with em 
I can’t help seeing if I float or i sink
Now Let’s think 
     
Ive Been Crushing all my teeth while I sleep 
To a fine paste
That’s silt tooth dust  
A rarity
But don’t be disparaged 
We’ve got plenty prepared here to share 
It's Tared out, ready to go
Because you know 
I'll be waiting for a thing to change 
I never looked at differently 
A blank slate 
But I can’t even keep my walls clear 
How the hell’m I gonna think straight 
I used to think fates twisted with straight ends
Now I see it for the frays bends bottle necks and breaks friends 
I’ve been a great friend
And hold that close to me 
Let’s have a toast for me 
One of the realest mother fuckers 
That I’ve ever had the choice to be 
My ears keep ringing like the rosary
And it’s funny and it’s bitter and it’s glum 
And it’s somber and it's cyclical and dumb 
But so often what we’re meant to become
is undone by the things we think were supposed to be 
Choking me up    
Sometime you’ve  really gotta laugh 
Man Do I look like a joke to me?
One day with breath all ashes 
I will really blow smoke up in their asses 
I will say it’s all magic 
Juat a little sarcastic 
Stochastic    
I'll stoke the ashes 
The horizon clashes 
flips backwards
A few flashes
  
rains cats and dogs 
Kind of odd
Kind and odd 
an analog pedagogue  
Panics through his monologue 
Panoramic through the smog 
Hazel days my brain in fog 
Earth will be my synagogue
Head in sand 
The hand of god 
You really gotta hand this god 
The sort of land he landed on 
Where mans his only cattle prod 
Everything we catalogue
We run around like cattle dogs 
But where are the shepards?
 
We built westwards 
since jesus chist  

We'll build west worlds  
beta-test our life  
 
But tell me where on earth the sun rises 
While every Midas touch violent 
i anchor myself deep in the world 
Like new pilings
and thank Isaac 
For expressing the mechanic by which 
I hold everything so close to me
