MHH Cypher 24 (2021) - Theme: "Spiral"
Beat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r8Gn6sRnwg

I'm just an itty bitty snail in a sea of green 
I'll be leaving you a trail to find your way to me
I'll get my Nate Dogg on gotta hail the king
Bring in a little sing song before I do my thing

Eyeballs on stalks, home inside a spiral
I got a slow walk but that's part of my survival 
I don't wanna use too much energy on rivals
I'm chewing on a leaf and hiding from that giant fireball
that dangles in the sky, and has people going tribal

Slime ball reciting from a Bible
Entitled enough to tell us that we're all the ones acting primal
I believe that, but I'd rather not be worshipping idols

I'm getting out the spiral and don't wanna be judged
I'm carrying the title but I feel like a mug
Mud and blood on my hands, caveman with a club
I need a miracle to slip these evangelical thugs

Without the shell I'm just a slug that's been embedded in your brainwaves
Mayday, this Fibonacci pattern helps us stay sane

I'm puffing on the dragon, ever rattling the same cage
All this talk of change just to remain in the same place

That's a circle not a spiral better question the exchange rate
Stop stuttering, you need a better frame rate
I shouldn't need to explain mate, it's way beneath your pay grade 
Russy on the track is like grenades on a freight train
and I'm spiralling out, smoothest of the ape brains
Paper hands folding before they even gain stage

MHH Cyhper 27 (2021) - "Lines"
Beat: @blaqueinche - Roadkillin' (Drvie - By)

Lines climb off the page
I'm seeing lines in the mirror
Lines on the map, that's not a line it's a river
You crossed over the line and then got caught up in the blizzard
Line after line, I got some rhymes to deliver

Cutting up the pie I'm the crust, you're the filler
I'm a guy known as Russ spilling guts, where's my liver?
I got all my rotten innards out and laid em in a line
I'm not here to piss about mate, I'm trying to unwind

This is trial by design to make you smile all the time
Acting childish in my prime is just the style I provide
It might be kind of out of line but I been trying to draw it blind
Colour in the picture while ignoring all the lines

I'm on the organ grind, rhyming from and awkward mind
A porcupine that wants to take a stab at all it finds
They say that I been wobbling and I can't walk the line
But they're squabbling amongst themselves while I get organised

Reddit MHH Cypher 51 (2020) - Theme: "Third Person Narrative"
Beat: @arkin1 - Can't Be Still #MHHCypher

Lyrics:

Man walks into a bar
Barman says 
"Who do you think that you are?! 
Didn't play your cards right last time 
so you can get out of here right now mate, you're barred"

He only wanted a drink
Said that he was sorry, saw a quality shrink
That day was an anomaly he shouldn't have been
In the wrong place at the wrong time
He just wobbled at the brink

Kicked up a stink
But he's been coming here for years without making a scene
One little misdemeanour, now he's barred for life
It all comes back to that carving knife
Shouldn't have held it to the barman's wife
Causing her harm with a child inside
No way to set right that glaze that he made in her eyes
It's far too late for that, right?

Barman pulls out a shotgun
Got 3 seconds to get out before he pops one
Hop, run, skip
Then he tripped and he slipped
Of all his dumb ideas, this has gotta be the top one

Shotgun clicks and it clacks
Should have come in with a hat
Should have brought a brick, or a bat
Shoulda coulda woulda ain't changing the facts

Barman shot him in the back, collapsed
Put him in the car
Put it on the tracks
Wait for the train to arrive, and then smash

But the train's got brakes
Barman's made a mistake
Makes haste as he races away
But the chase is on, now he'll never be safe
Was revenge really all that great?

Reddit MHH Cypher 8 (2021) - Theme: "Getting Older"
Beat: @kaseboy-advance-beats - Up All Night

I grew up way too fast
Now my mind's caught up with my body at last
Where'd the years go? 
Beard growth wild these days playing havoc with the mask
Used to have a sippy cup now I'm on the flask

Used to be a grape now I've shrivelled to a raisin
Teeth are in a state and my brain's gone vacant
The verse that I write will soon be words from the ancients
Should have given up, but I carried on blazing

Now I'm waiting for whatever's coming next
My daughter's growing up and she's the best
These test that we go through will leave us feeling blessed
Well it's that, or they'll feed us to the demons we possess

Years and years of stress will see you wrecked at the roadside
I need a new prescription, my eyes are going so blind
I don't even know where the time went, oh my
I'm looking at the cliff's edge and man, it seems so high

Woah
It's a long way down
Careful where you're stepping you ain't on reins now
and still I'm just chasing that crown
Racing around instead of taking it in and embracing the sound
