lyrics

[Verse 1]
You looking at me? I'll cook up a beat
I coulda been clean but This hook is diseased
Booking matisse is sugary sweet
But sour is louder, it should been heated
I'm breathing and wheezing, and gasping for air
Reaching for Ether, does anyone care?
Are they aware, that Sauce is impaired?
I'm locked in this audio hospital lair
Calculate how many maladies drown in me
Shallow in balanced imbalance, empowering
Malice is crowding my talent and towering
Showering foulnesses down on me, fallacies
Fueling me, polluting me
Fooling me with opportunities
Loosening screws so I'm losing me
Truthfully music’s the root of my eulogy

[Chorus]
I live within these lyrics, so I’m sick I hope you hear it
Cuz my peers are poking, jeering
You’re the one infected
I know endurance, hold my vocals like a cure but
I’m not open to insurance
You’re the one infected

[Verse 2]
This is my toxin, killing me softly
Lyrical moxie, stereos mock me
Ill and this feeling is awful, it's got me
fearing lobotomies nearing my thoughts, see
It's stupid to think, infusing this sickness
Into me's moving my music
This mutagen’s soothing my bruising
And smoothing perpetual human delusion
My name is Matt, my science is mad
Write rhymes in a pad, so I think I rap
How can I justify trying this craft
When I should aim higher than liars and swag?
I'm a fan of the jam, a fanciful man
Manic depressive with damaging hands
Handling answering arrogant pandering
Devils by sharing my medicine, man

[Verse 3]
Selected, injected, rejected
But I’ma be rocking my hospital’s monitored room
My sets sick, neglected, I’ll mend this
So I’ma be rocking out hollow cuz all of it’s doomed

He has done this through music. ... more
