lyrics

VERSE 1 (Timeless)
I ain’t checking for them presidents, my notion I reply//
Stay flowing like the ocean, kicking rhymes from the sky//
A blessed road, about to climb, mythologic mind of shine//
Eternal, forget the time, infinite spitter of rhyme//
Connected through these cables peep this interface I boast//
In a galaxy drop, I slide off from the coast//
Moving in a plane of separation, ain’t no sign of hesitation//
Living what I’m kicking in my written, that’s my motivation//
My inspiration is a different realm//
I become Excalibur’s owner, Round Table, posted at the helm//
Escapist flow got me reaching for another land//
Pen in hand, elevate in ways that you can’t understand//
It’s metaphorical, lyrically rhetorical//
No answering the future that I’m scribing like an oracle//
I put my shit up to the edge of my depths//
To keep on spitting when reality is stealing my breath, ya feel me?//

Hook (Kuga & Flow Zen)
Take me away to another land, you don’t have to understand//
It’s right across the cables//
I just close my eyes and I take another step//
And I go inside of this place with no regret//

VERSE 2 (Champlu)
I'm facing this life with a mic I took flight//
Call these aviator rhymes when I sit down and write, might//
Bring light to the blind just stuck lost in my mind//
Broke the shackles of time cause music’s timeless//
Rhyme just, to have a better life and//
Enlighten, my people hope it's righteous//
So don't fight the feeling it's realer than money, power, respect//
Flowers blooming even if you have regrets//
So do the same and let nature take its course//
But of course you can't cause you been trained since birth to hand over your soul//
In exchange for gold bitches and what not//
Some robots I found my path so I rhyme to invoke thoughts//
Yeah, this microphone saved my life//
And this studio became my home//
With a rich community of artist I consider family//
When actually my fans to be is all I see//

VERSE 3 (Flow Zen & Kuga)

Flow Zen:
Through the speaker box and I want to let go//
Want to let go, want to just know//
Where my words go after leaving the pencil//
Where my thoughts go after leaving my mental//
Cuz at the face of it, it ain't nothing//
But when I say something it takes me away from it all//
My brain running far through the sound waves from//
Today to tomorrow, every song making it all//

Kuga:
Well worth it, better yet call it hella perfect//
When the notes drop down, and it sinks beneath the surface//
Every drum beats like the steps I be taking//
It keeps me in check with every move I be making//
On the road I’m walking got the instruments talking//
I'm in sync with this journey, and I hope Its never stopping//
So I let my ear go, free so I can hear all//
Clear my mind, and let my bad thoughts free fall//
