Stanley Ipkuss - caffeine [prod. ewonee .]

Done With Earth (KVZE)

Inspired by my pre-teen experience with blindness via eye trauma injury, a post-mortem visit from my grandmother and my mother's current battle with a degenerative sight condition making her legally blind.

Lyrics by Cavalier

You black out I go blind 
You black out I go blind blind 
You black out I go blind 
You black out I go blind blind
To the fantasy the island to the canopy that is your eyelid 
out the window I started flying, they started firing 
there were no sirens I awoke they was by my bed 
trynna find where the bullet wound up 
In the wall just over my head, 
"that boy's lucky", heard him side lip 
See what you did? tell a kid 
he could die if he don't live 
even if you keep your ass inside here 
ain’t no sky here can't hide here 
fuck the world like a satyriasis 
state of my address have biases or learn sciences, 
it's what a beautiful mind is 
when the rules of your environment 
say you can't move unless you roll over or you lying there 
wasn't buying it even at my years felt sunrise in my pit, 
solar plexus where carrying techs is text book 
in having less we found lessons it gets senseless, 
so you black out I go blind

Chorus

Ask when last I had both eyes 
I was half the age that I'm now
Same week  I first saw B.I.G. 
didn't think it was a big deal 
wasn't star struck but was struck down 
dumb luck now I'm up on the hospital 
swoll up where my face is at 
trynna hold and place what happened 
with the force of a baseball bat 
took a loss when a bungee chord recoiled 
and nearly destroyed my ability to see forward 
five days I was detoured, blinded a teen boy
physicians said my predicament 
was that my vision could never be restored 
imagine me first night home with these thoughts trynna sleep on it hard to know how to be when you gotta pee could barely see the toilet Ten fingers, ten toes, two hands up seeing ghosts 
Grandma Zoila had me shaken up waking up in the bed 
and she'd been dead long gone, visiting from yonder 
In high definition redefining how 
vision will never be my problem now so

Chorus

Had 2 tracks out and saw shine 
If you have doubts then don't climb Since you lost sight I found time 
You black out I go blind, blind

Chorus

Mother, momma, ma 
Mother, momma, Ma I know you can hear me 
across oceans let my voice cut closest through their diagnosis 
I've caught glimpses of the other side we don't die I know this 
I know what they told you 
you cannot go blind, let the window reopen To your soul
indivisible, Invisible are all things 
in this physical interlude they intend to limit you 
but spirit is all seeing like when we was little 
you knew how to call us without giving up our names 
Just look for the whistle, just look for the whistle 
If we can share love and we can share blood 
you breathed the air in my lungs 
You are never impaired, because I am here
an extension of her like Madonna to child, vibrato to sound
I am the flower, your roots have sprouted the tower with boundless power potential you are the ground, my earth that gives me prudential Like sermon on mount 
my verse is intended to mend you 
The light, it never gives out 
They could never black out 
They could never black out 
They could never black out 
They could never black out

You Black out I go blind.

"I’m fortunate to have a few hip hop veterans on my album but it was important to me to have some fresh faces on the record. First got hip to Chester after hearing him on my homie fredfades’ album “Warmth”. and his monotone delivery makes a cool contrast with the beat. My mans is a problem, and was actually the very first person I reached out to to collaborate during the inception of the album."
