Who is Prof. Mayfly?

In Habitat, ScaL and @profmayfly explore the implications of the human inclination to adapt by manipulating their environment and ponder the natural state of humanity.

@bcfcollab

I made super haste
As if cyberspace
Cyber punk bumps
To the bass in trunk
Hella glitchy
Itchy
Driving up 95 
Alive 
city to city 
Following roadlines
21st century living
In the back of my mind
Im 
The man on the move
Smooth
We going
Miles
Like kinda blue
Styles like 
Kinda new 
Thats so kind of you
Eying me
Saying i to you 
Am like 
Ein
Meets bag of booze
And i got the crazy hair to boot
But havent gone nuclear yet
Still stupid obsessed 
With frontiers
Like cowboys In the wild west
Tame the wilderness
Got dressed
And put a roof overhead
And said
And thats thats 
Its a brand new habitat
Its natural
Anything human in fact
From mud huts to mansions
From spears to space landings
From books to cybernetic implants and
And every scientific standing
Technologically
We’ve ceased be fleeced 
By disease
And learned
To fall asleep in peace
Safe from the beasts
Part of what it means to be a human being
Is seeing through the thickets and brush
And building up from the sticks
Like your living in rust
But now we so past that
It looks like starcraft
As as matter of fact
Can i get some vespene gas



Blast my silly ass into the matrix
This’ll be my 15 seconds of fame
Win some silly prizes 
When you play some silly game
But are you not entertained

We are in overdrive 
so relieved to be so alive
To watch an empire rise 
Until it dies
Counting paces
To make sense of spaces
Turns to 3d 
Cut and paste
Laser surveyors 
with
Layers upon layers
Of beautifully traced
Empire states
For the empires sake
Excelsior
Build it
Higher and higher
Turn the Amplifiers 
Higher and higher
Man i get that
I like to play creator too
I like to be creative too
Every bit of space aged angst is a part of
Its not apart from you 
Sychronized lives through a satellite
The internets inception
Was inflection point
We strive for perfection 
This is natural selection
How can we look at what we make
As an infection
You want to talk about bizarre
Thinking you know anything about the stars
Whenou are Just a blip upon a radar

Way away
Fade away

And in that moment i was far away
I was lost in my bars
I could have been anyplace
So far away
Felt like an astronaut  
Caught 
In a rocket ship of thoughts
project gemini
Set aside
Everything that i knew 
To be true
And deified myself 
Through the AI of my minds eye view
Mind you i was flying to my doom

There goes me
Always on the move 
following
Roadlines of the  mind
From  point A to point B  
Why would i slow down
When knowing i was homebound
Its useless
the truth is
The road is still in front of us
Will have risen from the dust
Fumbled out of trouble
We applied that human touch 
Earth is plenty bountiful and we have achieved
A world where nearly everyone can eat
men will go to mars
Find our place among the stars
Colonizing every planet
As we outgrow ours

Lyrics:

Boom bap
Im doing what i came to do
There’s no comparison
Im really not the same as you
And shame on you
For making it out to seem’s if
There was a path that exists
Where we could shut off all our suffering
And suddenly bliss
I still get nightmares and shit
Feels like im drowning while im taking a dip
In the pool
By the school 
Doesnt matter a bit
Biting my lip 
I been grinding my teeth
But id still say the very worst dreams
Are the ones where im satisfied 
The ones where i want for naught
And i do NOT feel lost or complicated
Aggravated 
caught up in knots
Because i wake up and thats all lost
And what is this
Lonely bliss
Cant even coexist with it
As i stare in the abys 
Suddenly feel funny as it stares back at me
Do you see what i see?
Do you even see at all 
Yall been
Spread thin 
Like aerosol
The air is all we got when its gone
Prepare to fall
Call my name on your way by
(mayfly mayfly mayfly)
But it least it wont take too long
For me
With my 
Heavy heavy heavy heavy
Head on my shoulders
Shoulder to shoulder with angelic bliss
And dreadfulness
An overwhelming obsession with getting free
But only music speaks to me
The rest is just dreams 
Perfectly cut screams
A yellow submarine
That were all in 
Jack with all the beans
But no stalk
Still talking 
By all means 
You got all the answers
What the fuck do you think 

I don’t believe sudden bliss
I dont believe in a jiva either
Or leaving neither 
Im a firm believer 
We are the dreams of a gods theater
And gods in dream theater 
And idk about you but i
m not watching a movie with no conflict

So I go boom bap
Im doing what i came to do
Theres no comparison
im really not the same as you
And shame on you
For making it out to seems if
There was a path that exist
Where we could shut our lying eyes
And see the world for what is 
There are no 
10 tips 
And then its suddenly bliss
There are no easy fixes
The road to riches 
Paved with constant disarray
Pain and bliss is the dichotomy
Got me on the rocks 
And it doesn’t even bother me 
like a hawk without talons
Or a cat without his balance
A king with no palace 
Atlas if im holding my madness
And i put that shit above me
Like look what i lifted
Now love me love me
World tell me im lovely
Grace is like a kiss 
And then its suddenly bliss!

Suddenly Bliss! (Prod. Areo)

Lyrics:

Honestly 
I just appreciate how the wind heals
How my skin feels 
Tender to the touch 
A light brush 
Just enough to lift me up
And i rise 
Like cicada
Like an elevator
Like a dead man falls on defibrillators 
Walks himself out the hospital
And into the incinerator
Couldnt stand the heat
So he sits by his refrigerator
Drinking all the beers
That he promised he would save for later
Later’s not real 
This liquor is an instigator
Thinking about my process
my progress 
my content
Oscillating threads 
But I’m still not content
Because I knew the time flies
But not where the flies went
Im not killing any spiders 
If they fly into these webs
Maybe that’ll dim the buzzing
Maybe that’ll trim the dread
Maybe one day we’ll uncover
Oscillations of knotted threads

Because i want to be free
But it is me that holds me back

Kinetic chaotic melodic hypnotic and knotted threads (x3)

Lyrics
(but what happens when there is a bug in the system)

And the whole worlds bugged out
Asking mayfly
Could you please get these bugs out
Got they mean mugs out
Tryna tell em that they lucked out
We can catch a vibe
You’ll survive 
It just suck right now
It’ll pass you by
Feels like
Somebody pulled the rug out
Like i was supposed to lead
But then went and fucking struck out
Shoulda never stuck my neck out
Like a sore thumb
But im sure dumb
Poor bum 
Went and found himself

a cause to die for 
To try to fly for

But by 4 or 5 when the day is done 
We can all sit back  watch a setting sun
Set our selves down watch a river run
As the fishy eat the mayfly
Every mayfly
dies 
at the tender age of 1
Never has the chance 
to ever see hes different from

Fly fisherman 
reels a big fish on in
you can teach a man to fish
But whos he got to thank for this dish 
By tomorrow does the mayfly live?
No mouth to ramble on
so they plague me
Played me like a fiddle 
Built me up like fiddle sticks
I am innocent
Like a little kid
Just a little motion sick

You know how it is
You know how it goes
Please dont stop the boat
Full speed ahead
Its the only way to go
And ill grow like an oak 
Loving life
in all of its obscenity 
I am just a little piece
Of the scenery 
Until they chop me down like a tree
leave the rungs out
Hung out to dry
Heads a radio 
I am high and dry
Tell em keep your head high
Focus on your head high
And when the flies come
Say yum 
Im a beautiful being
Being beautiful 
And you’re not being mean 
Your just stupid and thats usual 
Try to meet a faultless friend 
And its you alone
Making wishes in a well
And i wish you well 
Well well 

im open and im calm
I just read my palms
I am agile 
Never cattled
Never fragile 
Lest i choose to be
You can thrown me in that deep deep end 
And ill find a way to doggy paddle on
I am torn both ways and i outghta be
Pumping myself up
Like a bunch a clogged arteries 
Thats alright
Look how this love kept my head light
Thankful for my family and friends
For the lovers and the time spent
Nights that never end 
Replaying in my head
Tryna keep them in 
But i can never get these bugs out
Bug doubt
Feeling like ive lucked out to live
But still a little pissed that i have to exist
Im grateful for the love 
But whats heavy is the rest
I will manifest
Im the best at it
See, I dont wanna get the bugs out
I am all bugs now
Mayfly is the bug tao

Buggin' Out (Prod. Atreesto)

Prod by Areo (@areobeats)

Lyrics:
I used to never ever say never
Never knowing i was trapped
I was whacked out my whack mind
I was living in a coop the whole time

I felt like i could never break
But nearly every damn day
was bent outta shape
I would slap my face
I would break my back
I would wait way way too
long try and tap
But its just too late
I would make more space
On a beaten path
I would beat it back
Just so i would have a way to get away
Lemme hear that break
And i was A OK

Im a one track mind
Meaning i would listen to one track all day
Music was the only fucking way
That no matter where i stayed
I could leave
And trust me yo

I could fit the whole world on my back
(Never back down)
(Never Never back down)
I was trapped
I was trapped
I was trapped
Im cooped up

So it really never mattered where i’s at
Like the pigeons in the back
I was cooped up
And i probably did some real uncool stuff
Lifes tough
Suck it up
What you waiting for a cool rush of love
Or a stroke of some dumb luck
Whoda ever realize
How i saw the whole world through my weird eyes.
How Im drawn to live through a limbic system
Wisdom
Parasympathetic
Breath magnetic
And release all stresses
Dont test this
body which is not hospitable
To anything defying this principle
To fuck the coop

So with one eye id glare to side
And the eye I’d pop out was the other
And i kinda felt the whole shutter
Noi kinda heard the whole world mutter
So i closed my shutters
And i pulled my covers overhead
I was clutched by an existential dread
Thats when i saw the world closing in
Thats how i really learned to begin
I was on my way i was way out
I was gonna win i was way in
I was on a wave
Didnt have to masquerade
But the world made me wait
Say id have to get paid
Or id be in someones way
I was trapped
I was trapped
I was trapped
Fuck that

And i could probably fall right off this map
(I could fall)

But whos there to blame for all that
Did the math said id better do math
Made a promise to my music
Ill be back to be full time
But the tanks full now
Its pull through time
I would never get sick of the music
I would never let go of this music
Id be too sick
I was too sick
Thats my two cents
Get a few cents and I’m cruising
I just wanna have some damn land
When i move in
I know this’ll all start moving
The world really finds that amusing
To help me out
Once i figured it out

I wont fuck with some gold handcuffs
I will only marry if i marryfor love
I will do my best to look up
to look out
And to look ahead
To a better path
To them belly laugh
While i share my bread
And thats daily yo
And yo maybe yo
These cells a cell and theses smells all hell
and im trapped
And im tapped and im wrapped up
In this rap stuff
But one day ill be free
And even a cooped pigeon sings

(Do pigeons sing?)
I dont think that pigeons sing
Crap
Even a trapped pigeon raps

Trapped (Prod. Areo)

Lyrics:
There is a place between asleep and awake
Where i still lie still 
Feel like the night never starts 
And the dawn never breaks 
And im still here, still
A product of the long lost thunder 
In my still veins
Wondering if sun gon come again
Feel the chilled rain
Whispering
And im no different 
Even when im so so far from you grace
Put on a tough face 
Even warriors weep
Tryna find the words 
For the ward of the week 
Because i still speak differently 
This is a secret of the passion i keep 
Even when ive been scraping my feet 
To point where ive slow my roll to a halt
And scuff my shoes to the soles 
And its all my fault 

There is a place between heaven and hell 
I know all too well 
Feel like the light wont refract 
And my soul wont react
And im still here waiting for the the truth i hold 
To uproot my soul and to move

(Im stuck)   

A product of a long lost dynasty 
I still fear
And i still hear your voice when i sleep
You act differently 
I guess i thought youd help more visibly 
I guess i thought id burn less miserably 
I guess i saw the lines so rigidly i knew
In turn it would turn back to you 

(Your majesty) 

But it turns out my learnings not through
Not these past few times 
This atrophy 
strung up I hung on the line
So craftily crawled and my cavity and grew
With a make-shift shape-shift 
In my little spaceship 
I flew
I guess i thought id burst through mystically 
I guess it was these dreams so vividly
I never thought id yearn admittedly
I do 
 
Pay no mind to the tempest 
To the seamstress 
To the seams in this ship unglued
When the tie off came loose 
The outfit the sea makes for you
Makes you feel like a goddamn fool 
Pay no mind to the water filled boots

(But it still gets to you)  

Been waiting for the day that my heart finally breaks 
But it just keeps bumping to the …

Giving praise to the shape of my heart
And theres so much love
Take a tour of these torn up lungs 
That have long been scorn 
As a punishment 
For where when and why was born
As a wide eyed child i was sure
you could see
from point A and B
To the XY and Z
To the excised wisemind in me 
Never mind my design
Had always befallen disease 
Mayfly laid their eggs all in me
Infested with the mayfly visibly
Staying in my belly or my head
Heavy swarns of the dread



is all your fault 
is it yours 
Is it yours 
Is it your fault 
Is it mine 
Is it mine
Is it still my fault 
 
I dont know if i could stand much taller
But i heard that holler long ago
I felt the way it vibrated my throat
And came through me 
Newly aligned 
Down my spine sent the shiver
Just a quiver 
Just the shakes

No introductions (applause)
Straight to conducting affairs 
Address me
Dressed to the nines 
An intricate design
Pushed me over like a bully 
Standing towers over me in a puddle
Is this trouble am i fucked 
Felt the frision 
As the visions bubbled up
running up through me
It was up to me. 
To stand up and to leave
But I stood still 

Do your worst 
If it makes me the best
I will still praise death
Everyday of my life
I will still give thanks to the light 
Which has scorn me 
Which has blessed me
Which has kept me
Safe as i wept 
And i held me down 
When i wont stay
Still

So ill be roaming like ronin
No master no home an
Earth church through Shinto 
Bushido and
Zen flow	
Shift swift like cherry blossoms in wind
Taos a hell of thing
I swing 
With the weight of all things
And shift back
A conscious craft
Calculating the math
Of all codes 
The one that I chose
Requires courage and strength
Lifting up like the wind to a wing
I wouldn’t bother if it
Weren’t for honor
Wont be the fodder for flames
Of nobles and dames
So skipped seppuku 
The couldn’t con me 
To practice kamikaze.
Rather exist
So I persist, sip sake
And dream so lofty 
Softly and often 
Resigned to woods 
But it isn’t a problem
In fact its awesome
Me in my top knot
Propped by  the tree tops
Left the city and all shitty 
Little silly lines
Drawn are all gone.
Live life with a samurai song

See ill be rapping till they kick me out the building
I bet yall would do the same if you had half my fucking feelings
look the parts I used to shame will be the reason Im appealing
Like an onion
I’ll Make you cry till you cant function
Because I kept track of every punch an’
schlept back and got it done
So  If you don’t like it now man
Im promising that this’ll grow
Like beards upon an eskimo 
As if that shit could fight the snow
The cold is fucking miserable
And even if they miss the show
That doesn’t make a difference though
They still try to sneak a kiss in
Like its miseltoe   
I miss you yo, but
Imma blow up like a missile though
I’ll write forever like im cicero
Rapping aint for bitching yo
This shits for speaking truth 
I guess you didn’t get the memo oh
You’re so dumb need an elmo
Or my right elbow 
Dropped 
Understand that now im praising 
What I used to pray would stop
Slowly climbing imma make it to the top
And Lotch got the beats on lock.
Yo I could feel this a lot 
Stready sippin on the cream of the crop

i have been doing a lot of that thinking stuff lately and wanted to share some of the fruits from the garden in my head again.

Garden In My Head

Prod by Areo (@areobeats)

I was feeling good when it hit me,
an echo i let go
its never been about me. 
And i was feeling sad when it left me,
forget me
youre never gonna get me.
 youre never gonna get me.

If i was a wound im festering
if i am a cocoon than im resting I
If Im fleur de lune than my moon flower powers will empower me. 
My mood changes hourly
my attitude is colorful enough to be inside a gallery
im souring
i don't even like sour things or have a sweet tooth
im givng up my sweetness the moment that i meet you
im not tryna blame you Id always rather blame me. 
See im fucked up now but my world is gonna change
And these words are gonna change me

Cigarettes and coffee really got me caught up in a knot and i get caught up in an awful lot, and its awful but im often having awful thoughts. I need to take a big leap like an ocelot, instead of arguing over spots in the parking lot. Fender bender renders him speechless like not today i dont need this. You always bring me down with your treasons, give me a reason these teachings never seem to reach them. Preach son preach son peace one love and the only living god is the god in every one of us, i dont claim to hold some special truth im just tryin to remind you. I was feeling so fine, just the moment that i saw you were everything you are then too

But every thing went blue blue blue when i met you. 
Everything was blue blue blue when i blew past passion
passed on your rations 
rattling the  stratospheres fears for my former years
Im just trying to get out of here, tried to disappear but that only made me clearer to me.  

Suspended belief im switching up my altitude ill change up my pace
They’re saying slow and steady wins the race 
that may be true on earth but fasts is how you get to space 
and when i get to outer space, i wont run out of space, 
then i can finally say that the chase was well worth it, 
and well that really feels worth it, its damn near perfect

I was feeling good when it hit me,
an echo i let go
its never been about me. 
And i was feeling sad when it left me,
forget me
youre never gonna get me.
 youre never gonna get me.

I'm just one drop in the bucket, but I still feel like I mucked it up, troubled by the rubble in each puddle because it's not enough to clean it up apparently, swear we do the sharing and then we’ll be the ones that never eat, cant compete, incomplete, adding insult to the injury. Guess shes not that into me guess hes looking out for you. Hanging on your clout, just to shout at a blinking screen and all of this to have my words be heard through infinity, literally living  through the literature lividly 

so look at me sitting on my city on the top of the world. thinking that divinity, means getting rid of me first. I'll let my lightwaves burst, and then disperse each color like a spectrograph, expecting that once i do let go there is turning back. Zen and then heart attack, Never feeling normal like a ratattat, trying to eradicate, things which fail to fascinate, everything is calm, right before it all disintegrates. 

And I was feeling good

Im just trying to rap through all my end time anxieties

Lyrics:
Comes like wave 
And the panic is back
Lying in my bed on my back
Having a panic attack
You wanna see me relax
I need a wrap and to rap
Thats a wrap
Music aint a habit its 
The magic of the madness in me
I got my amenities
my health my self
And the shelf full grains
Meat to freeze Milk and cheese 
And even munchies
So why must i wake up to shakes
And my hearts at pace
Thats distasteful
disgraceful
A face full eggs
And yet my legs are moving so fast
Like a horse on the track
Go home 
preakness postponed
I can feel it my chest 
Compression 
The pathetic little empathetic
Can feel it in his bones 
It wont leave me alone
But it hit like a tsunami 
Please speak softly 
And rock me gently 
On this wave so grave
As a lullaby to lull me to rest
Ill protect you 
I feel so overwhelmed
Yea im used to that 


 




Let it play for me
Let it play for a minute please
Relate to me
Then take a break for a minute please 

The waves heavy
But its breaking eventually
Tide rise and fall
But know that we always belong to the sea so 
So when your tied up
Just let it play for a minute please

Lyrics:
Its inevitable, know ill feel better if I let go
Its natural, migrations of the actual soul
Hold on to hope because its faith
That will never let you go.
And it never lets you down
I been yelling so loud,
But I don’t think they’ll hear me out
Out there in the sun flare fields
Of these unfair yields
And its unclear
Feels like the sky might open up
Clouds gone
Life changes in a moment 
Everything that you thought youd hold close
Forever, is gone and then its on to something better
Mass migration to the higher now.
Channel me your ire and and fire
It inspires me
See 
Since the ides of march starts
a spark meets ignition
I wish i had vision through my cards premonitions 
But what exactly would I even really do different?
Id be Julius pimping, probably singing in my kitchen until
I am chicken meets attempted flight
Yo I got some air alright,
So busted on the landing nice
I am sacred when alone at night
Sacral to my acolyte perched on my crown
You know its hard to tip toe
With this all weighing me down 
but if these problems are water then man im starting to drown
But something about the ocean always hit me profound
So I let it surround me resoundly
And ill be Abraham man
The way I 
get outta town
But its not just me it’s a mass migration
Onto a higher frequency best believe in me
The way that I believe in me
Please 
Ive done seen all of the scenery
From the suns of god to the towers all teetering
Its an exodus and were leaving see
Whos leading us through ruins pursuing a shoe in to win
Who flew and in and threw the whole damn thing
You know it tightens my skin
Take it under the chin and
Keep winning  this is just the beginning
Stuck on a world that keeps spinning
and we never quite leave
We just head somewhere different
And its natural its actually love
The things youre so afraid of
Are exactly what your made of

Misanthrope
Getting his space has always been a mission 
Though soon as he gets it he’s 
Miserable
Mystified thought hed find humanity 
led to his insanity
Look i appreciate the misplaced nostalgia
That follows all yall while your home alone
Raucous is the the thoughts of revision 
While Steady is my poem
So i know how to manage when reality seems manic
Thoughts running rampant
I Amp it up
Mayfly never gets enough
I know how to plan through the panic
See i know how to fall 
Ill be the last one standing
When everything is shakey
Suddenly ill be the steady hand
 and 
Ill Fumbling through this guttural speech
Just to speak to yall 
Reach you all
To find a little PEACE
Before pieces start to fall apart
Come together like were brethren
Fight the despair like a gentleman 

With a lovely bruschetta and bottle of gin
I used to be so mischievous, And i miss it
Im hanging up these pictures  
Of a better day
When we werent so afraid 
But nowadays
we’ll be keeping six feet between the trust
And i miss it
Before for physical distance
It was emotional 
Most folks 
Would never know how disconnected 
They’ve been until they unplug
From the machine awaken to the dream
To see the things that gave us gold
Took away everything we know
And i miss it
I wonder if this one will make a difference 
Or if we let the dust settle 
And return to toxic living
A shift in how were thinking
Consciousness risen
Dont miss it
Dont miss it
Dont miss it

sometimes just looking up at the sky watching the clouds can be so much more magnificent to look at than anything on the TV or internet

Lyrics:
She keeps calling me 
The deep blue sky 
And you know i'm feeling fine
But if the truth doesn't matter 
It could happen to you
So you better stop wasting your life
I saw a cloud pass me by that looked just like me
Blowing smoke
I really wish that she would show me the ropes
But every time i try to float its
Here we go again
Vertigo
And these clouds are rolling in so slow
Im not even moving 
in my mind
Im on a mission though
Every waking hour that i wrote 
Kept me present 
Every time i that i chose 
To to start the sweating, and stressing 
Addressing the issues 
Instead of pretending 
the cloud are only water
What are we
with just a little bit more pressure ill be steam
Ill be free
Ill be cumulus
Altocumulus
Accumulating weight until i dissipate
So dont you wait for me
At least for just that moment ill be free
Finally me
A happy sailor satisfied
i finally had the chance to fly 
While im simultaneously 
Laying in grass feeling insane praying for the rain
Watching me passing me by contemporaneously 
Sometimes i swear  the sky is playing with me
I cant believe the things ive seen 
Like a dream through a smoke screen 
Clouds are little vessels, and the deep blue sky’s
An 8th sea in a sense
and see
i sense you you clench to innocence
With shaggy defense saying
It wasnt me 
Acting like you didnt sense it so intense
Clouds from incense leave an intense imprint
Without a pretense 
The smoke leads  to a vision so dense
I make pretend 
Until attention from this to this tension makes me ascend 
I’ll make no sense
Often offend
I run on run on sentences
Accepting that my fetish is being my nemesis
Find me in my
Mindstate penitentiary 
Where the sentence wont end
She keeps calling me 
The deep blue sky 
And you know im feeling fine
But if the truth doesnt matter 
It could happen to you
So you better stop wasting your life
There is something so unsettling
About settling 
There is something so unstable
About stability
Fuck civility, nobody but me has my ideas
or my abilities, 
So ill still smile
Because i can only build if i tear the walls down
And like a rank and file imbecile 
Id rather be safe and sound 
More then sound 
Ultra sound 
Ultrasonic phonics 
harmonics and sonnets
I promise 
to shake this earth
Like im plate tectonics
In time allotted 
The lot of us rot
Some of us plot 
To unknot the way were knotted knots
But some of us do not 
Some of us are so fraught with thoughts
That they keep the hunter out earshot 
Until its buckshot 
Deer caught in the blindspot
Blinded by the headlights
Read his last rites to himself 
Dead to rights
Spent his last night walking on egg shells
Tryna tell himself the way to excel is to propel
Yourself properly, let the mind be wobbly
nebulous down to every last crevice 
Forget it was ever imbedded with all this bedlam 
Across the spectrum 
and let some air in to breath
Its what you need. Indeed your mind is cloudy 
So let the clouds take the lead 
She keeps calling me 
The deep blue sky 
And you know im feeling fine
But if the truth doesnt matter 
It could happen to you
So you better stop wasting your life

Life will be a vague memory once you detach 

Lyrics:

I’ve got vague memories
That come to together splendidly 
Engrave me emboss me and outline my corpse in chalk
This is all talk
of
Episodic thoughts
never lost through in the directory
I,
Blend sensory 
data together Tenderly
evade treachery 
As i continue my trajectory 
Its the little pleasantries
So tenuous, tenderness is tentative
pay attention 
And the message gets repetitive
de ja vu
Is right now brand new
Easily be misconstrued 
Voodoo of the taboo
Guru while the boogaloo
News ensues  news crews
i be flying over cuckoos nest 
With a birds eye view
I eye you, and strive 
thriving on driving deprived dudes to derive truth
You hoo have got do it for you 
Too coo coo to rest
Get me some cocoa puffs
Trust 
Once enoughs enough 
They get the fisticuffs 
Call my
Bluff tough guy find out
My minds out
On time out 
Riddled with riddles
And i just figured it, a little to late
So cut to the chase, i cant wait 
If you give me a second to second guess 
And ill be settled in my new ways 
Its a new day
A new wave
A new crazy craaze
I think too vague
plaguing my mind
Half of the time ill be thinking in rhymes
Half of whats left ill be dreaming and scheming 
So a quarter i afford to moving life forward
Bored with the unsure shores
Of a life blurb blurred 
I didnt slur my words miss you just misheard
May be a sin to kill a mocking bird 
But everyones relieved to see a mayfly die



I defer  to the unheard, he(a)rd of those hurt
In a place 
a time in 
A scene i cant remember when
An unidentified task i cant quite grasp
all i remember’s how it feels 
And i feel you 
so
Venerate my illustrated fate ive long awaited 
Revere me or fear me
Trouble is 
I struggle to speak clearly
I can only speak weirdly
Too vague to keep myself from disappearing 
Aware but weary of wearing it out
Teary as i figure it out 
It tears through me 
I double as a theory 
Snip this string theory 
connected like a net
Enlightenment is death 
 you do not get
 to get out of it
Life will be
a vague memory 
Once you detach from it
Remember that?
I just remember how it feels to go back(x3)

Vague Memories (Prod. Areo)

Lyrics:
You know its crazy
This was written across the globe
But the second that it hit me
Took me closer to home
The only home ive ever known
Was in the space between these headphones
And im not tryna get ahead no,
Im tryna get my head blown
Into smithereens
So the people could see the bits and pieces
Of peace which have created me
I hope i meet maker and to makes sures
he takes that shit serious
Because seriously, my fear is that hed skim it
And trim it down to a couple matrices
Looking at my face confused as to who
Made me me
A creator breaths and conceives life
But in a way Prof. Mayfly isnt me right?
And i dont want to be concatenated
I dont suppose you could transpose me?
I get so close but never close enough
Wandering the earth kicking up dirt, and dust
Unearthing all of these versions of
A person who learns and learns but never learned enough
To know im lucky in fact
That i can spit on a track
That takes me back
To garden in my head where i go to relax
And i max in my safe haven
Where im braving the storm
A mere mortal through portal
Of the internal infernos
I sure know
Wherever i go
This is as close
As im ever gonna get to home
So thank Areo,
You already know
We on the same wavelengths
through some different time zones
So when the shape of me takes shape
When the grace finally embraces me
And im back in that space, without a trace
Of this meat body bag thats hold me back
ill Put down all of my baggage
And cross paths with feelings
Detach
and let them all pass
I feel like im me
hit the relief valves release
To shift the pressure in me
Self actually will come from self actually
Yall can have the skin and bones and arteries
You can have the skull and mind and heart and feet
You can take apart my heart
Dissect inject and tear apart
Inspect detectgo make some charts
Graft and regraph
go make some graphic art
You can rip it all apart
Till theres no telling me apart
From vermicelli
With a red sauce
(MWaH)
you’ll still never know
How it feels to be close home
We all combust into stardust
And its just so unjust
but
What if i told you im an astronaut?
Sitting on mars
in self dialogue
Wondering why i went so far
for something i coulda done in my backyard

Prof. Mayfly - Take Your Time (Remix)

Prod by Areo (@areobeats)

The head of a king

I swear to god yo
They’re coming for my fucking head
I said they’re coming for my fucking head

They’ll say that life is what you make it 
But some are adorned in robes
While some others living naked
Idnt ever think it made sense
We pay rent 
On their inheritance

Thrown overboard 
While the throne goes overboard
Feudal lords
Cant you see its futile to dispute 
My  noise
harmonious
Thelonious
They’ll call us all felonious 
For going against 
A proclamation
Which just makes no sense

Then these
Governmental henchmen
Sent to self destruct 
The very place they grew up 
And they don’t give a fuck 
Because someone gave them a check now 
So they wont stick out they neck 
The second that they get
their blue check 
And feel accepted
They won’t question 
All the homeless 
And destruction 
Those locked in their home
Alone 
Afraid to live i wonder why 

No place for the meek 
No pace you could keep
To catch up
But made a blessing work for we
The royal we
Royalty 

I swear to god yo
They’re coming for my fucking head
I said they’re coming for my fucking head


Peace to every farmer 
Knight in shining armor 
With a rusting sword
Who grew up sure
The one true king is the earth
Power in this truth
They cant take from you 
If youre self reliant
Dont buy in to the lying
They want to see a realignment 
But the difference between coal and diamonds
Is pressure over timing 
And its finally time to shine

ive seem em using
Tools which in their very nature will decay
Not afraid to call a spade a spade
The call it axe and then it fractures
As they hack away 
Spades or for digging graves
But your a moron
your not yorick
Your more minion anyway 
They wanna show
Not to listen
Submissive to a trend
And tend to have no intuition
But love lecture me about intuition 
And now i got to listen to this fish in a net 
tell me about about swimming
Not getting caught
Its like the whole lots got brain rot
your chakras arent blocked 
Your calcified third eye 
Won’t keep you from divin light 
Alright 

See they dont know the meaning of these things which they are preaching 
Please give me a reason, 
To stay calm and carry on when im feeling like a napalm 
Face palm 
I will get it done 
Because i said i will
See thats what makes me credible
Spoken word is just  incredible
King is so ephemeral 
You have silk and money 
But you know nothing of the force of will 
If i said ill make it happen of course i will 
They cant get their head into the head of a king
So its  schiiing

Tread Lightly



Ooo baby 
Dont you say 
Those words 
Like that to me
That could mean 
Anything, 
ooooo anything

And sometimes i find im in my mind 
So far away
So far today 
I dont feel so far away
But that change
no
That can change me
I am not the same see 
As i was a minute ago 
Because a minute ago 
i was in a place that i didnt know
And the sea moves oh so slow
But just one waveeeeeeee
and
Here we go
Everybody want to know
Where all these bodies go 
When theyre feeling low
When they feel alone
But i dont know
No 
I dont know anything
Except how to swim
No
How to float 
No
How to tread lightly
Said i might be assertive 
Said they heard i was unheard of
Said im very hurt, only sort of
Im on the border bout sitting on the fence 
When
God lord sent his hench men
And push me under
(drowning sound)


Ooo baby 
Dont you say 
Those words 
Like that to me
That could mean 
Anything, 
ooooo anything



Underneath 
I could see
How breath 
What i need 
So afraid to break 
I could never be great 
Nobody knows your name
If you never show your face
And hell
 I know i go so hard on me
But that will hardly be enough
To level up
Doing nothing 
Look you
Moving but you stuck 
Whats the point of all this running around
If youre only going down down down
Distant now
I want to lose touch 
And to slip
And to dip down 
Dig into the underground
Nothing comes easily 
Whats so different now
You been wishing loud
Howl 
All you want 
Moon’ll never never bow
You will never back down
You the stupid proud 
You the bend 
You the never break 
You the never take a break
Just waiting to break
Into break 
Into the break down

Ooo baby 
Dont you say 
Those words 
Like that to me
That could mean 
Anything, 
ooooo anything
