Three years old I entered, soul in the center
Caught in a cage, a maze, but I know the ending
And I knew it before, was marked below average
Like my writing was ‘eh’ everything below their standards
Resented their plans to turn me down
Homie I (DARE dared) to stay firm dared to burn the loud
Dared to not think as I was told
Dared to think of things that adults said was too bold then it grabbed
Hold of my whole frame, ‘Mess’n with the Blues’ like Coltrane
Or Cobain but my parents never had guns
Which is good ‘cause I was mad son and my
Anger had passion (like some fucking passion)
Figured it out what this shit is about
When I first saw the chains felt kicked in the mouth
But learned soon that I could live with or without
Slipped the PILL in my mouth homie the RED ONE
… but I still had steak that night

And she said that I will never break these chains
‘No you won’t my Son’
So I grew my wings and then I burst into flames…
Float towards the Sun

Ayo this hidden circulumn’s really ‘Dumbing Us Down’
Dependent on the System ‘til we’re all under the ground
It’s like No questions ever asked
‘bout much in or out of class
Camera’s focus in… they say it’s all in our dome
‘At least you’re not here all day’ then the school follows us home… work
Stuck in the algorithm of a broken computer
Ruling the lives of us all the Rulers are cracking the rulers
The whole practice is stupid Imma crack in two
And smash it to pieces, the structure is shattered and bruised
Baph’s on the move, music with actual truth
Back in the booth with green that’s hella strong
Trying to show people what I do and get along
But it’s like everybody has an antenna on
Isolated from each other though we’re doing the same shit
It’s baseless, forget the basics… let the bass hit


And she said that I will never break these chains
‘No you won’t my Son’
So I grew my wings and then I burst into flames…
Float towards the Sun
