(chorus)
Independence is a noose of foreign pendants
They pen dances so we’d stop being defensive
And stay blind to these thorns we’re stepping on
Couldn’t fathom the past,guess it’s out of fashion
(verse 1)
Strokes of heartache spark great visual plays
And you will stay with spectacles on for the spectacle display
This play of fire works simply by live firing-
Your tiring days away as your eyes desire it
To be one with the span of the fiery skies
Spirals that fly through retinas, getting your blind attention
And then sends you to a reckless chase
To pan around it for the best panoramic viewing place to fully embrace it
The space is occupied with clouds of shooting stars
The pace intensified with rounds that spews out starting points-
For a night worth documenting in any form
Represent repackaged gift of this frantic storm
Many arms stretch in a friendly warmth length
Salute to all strengths that have been gone long since
Salute to old men that died in war scents
Salute to false statements by statesmen who preach us nonsense
Salute to his stories of this gory past he calls hardship
Partial accounts kicking back logs of lost bliss
Long kiss goodbyes by good times gone for good
Redefined like elements for peace forcefully would
Of course the discourse of this course of distorted-
Recollections of bridges crossed would be tossed in flames
They put on a display,lip gloss hiding crooked tongues
I’m here for the fireworks,gone when it’s done
(chorus x2)
Independence is a noose of foreign pendants
They pen dances so we’d stop being defensive
And stay blind to these thorns we’re stepping on
Couldn’t fathom the past,guess it’s out of fashion
(verse 2)
Morning sun sobers up the knights
Face the ground, they recall their failed attempts of flight
Stuck in the nest of fancy magic sticks and stones-
Utilized only when the trunk grows another branch older
Hands holding tight, the string of noose broadly casted-
In the shape of forgotten pasts slowly passing
Generations disconnect,the parents are restless
While foreign investments of youth culture goes uncontested
Tried and tested lies are etched in templates-
Of the speech that hits the heart at the speed of hate
Elected Gods,doing jobs of being the symbol-
Of a system that governs your window of hope
Learn the ropes,make your way up to your own stand
Reach out to exploding stars the moment you grow hands-
To write your own destination on your tickets
Coz the flying colors have failed to inspire the little kids
(chorus)
Independence is a noose of foreign pendants
They pen dances so we’d stop being defensive
And stay blind to these thorns we’re stepping on
Couldn’t fathom the past,guess it’s out of fashion

The Excalibur with the caliber of 22′s
Re-calibrate the age-old shell to fit into his shoes
Not many would choose this route
But he rerouted the root numbers so his destiny could compute
That he’s not fooling around,full circle,mental sound
Focused on the text to push the next cruise aground
Rocking back to back aches,pounds for pounding
On the ukulele emcee whose rib cages he strummed
He’s done mastered the methods of drumming out the off hits,
Keeping tabs on the score with a hum
Leaving mellow dramas below the sheet-
Music is not escape,he’s a slave to his own beat
Tapped his feet on the ground like elephants
Ssup Sonic? It’s over the hedge! Hogging the bench
Warm the globe all set for the melting point
Better keep your distance coz he’s easily annoyed
Of course they never listen so he smash through
Skull candy wrappers torn to unveil the mental booth
Collects the volumes for better reproduction
Of the lower frequencies so his heartbeat could function
Until then he forks out money to the small fries
Franchised protection fees, keeping green till he dies
Pun in ten did nine ate severed sick lives for tea?
To wonder is childish, this is what we made knives for
Rhymes for miles, diamond studded rubber
Pierce your virgin ear lobes clean from the wack
Get on the jump off just to fall down under
Got more punches than if Cassius were to rap
But never retires the verbal game just to stutter
Charging full steam with a ton of steel on the track
Emcees are supper, he aims to make them suffer
From the dirty south bleaching like the German definition for black

Hello,Missed
02:04
|
|

Rain drops cats dogs steady pouring
Like my heart a couple of seasons before-
The final wave hit the shores, to settle the scores
But you paddled back and I see the light once more
Fashionably laid, clear my mind stains on your coat
Ignite spites, exchanged rage, rock the boat
Soaking wedding plans, hand me the towel
To sit and talk before we go off again being sour
It’s the same hour we parted last time
Sitting benched waiting to depart, but what I had in mind-
Were the stories I penned in the pen
Of palling around with the verge of collapse back then
Letters never sent, but hell bent on proving
How much writing with bloody inks isnt amusing
But I’m confused, coz you looked unusually attractive
With the frown upside down before giving me your hands-
We, crossed corridors, cutting corners
Borderline bliss, I was partly enjoying this
Conversed in hollow hellos, angels who lost halos
Ignite the spark of old flames ‘fore the pain got involved
The unresolved banged my chest
Guess you saw my broken smile, but you couldn’t care any less
I tested your new soul, learn the curves of your currents
Sheltered you from the falling tears as we came running
But somehow the rain pierced everything we threw at it
Still I wanted this moment to last like a true addict
Love is true magic but that’s a long lost chapter
I’d like to tell you how I’ve lived since our hereafter
Laughter was the language as we walked along
Didn’t seem to wonder where we’re headed for
Coz it’s the sunshine dreamt impossible, I couldn't get enough
But the rain wouldnt stop till i was woken up

The Eye feat El Genio
03:33

|

(Verse 1 - El Genio)
Unfathomable evil when I approach the mic as ur eyes grow wide
Lung sacs retract as I extract a rhyme from the mind
As the rib cage contract faster as the blood is pumping
Inexplicable rhymes coming an adolescent less than eighteen
Hungry for prey as they pray for god to save them
Then I came into their wake for a divine intervention
Emcees dread for my presence as the hang themselves with the mic cord
Manipulating these emcees fear as their mind begin to discord
To tiny strings bind together like how I bind these cats together
Gasoline on the skin, sparks ignite and engulf them in the fire
Flames tear skin and flesh, screams accompany immense pain
Then I plant those images in the heads of their children
My rhymes shock them internally meeting them with reality
In high definition when they try to defy the genius literally
The scythe in my grasp beheading them with the Watchers
Numerous heads scattered near the mic because of my demeanor
(verse 2 - El Genio)
Paramedics on parameters when I spit lyrical exaggerations
Rhymes written on papyrus leaves leaving crews Demented
While the flow on the sacred texts leaving Triniti questioned
Rehearses in the morgue to put to practice on stages
Lyrical prowess making emcees powerless
Staring while I be raking their eyes from their sockets...
SG MY connection, the legion of emcees be storming in your area
images captured by the cornea
cant be interpreted by the brain
because we kill faster than waves travel through the veins
chemicals blocking your atrium ruptured your sacrum
wisdom passed from generations,with techniques from the ancients
rhyming mages conjuring magic cursing you through the ages
(Verse 3 - Dafrosty)
Written in the timelines, witnessed through divine eyes
Disfigured to justify lies and definitions
While misfits beautify figures of speech, to make it seem
Like the represented person never dies
Even in dreams, and as it beams
The image is planted in the language the masses breath
En masse agrees sublime defeat
And it’s even the basis for the resistance that it might receive
Answers came sponsored, concerto of concern
Sparks converse through art and convergence of culture
Purpose is altered, freedom fighters enslaved
By the very evil their shots have made possible
Pause the whole world war by the framed accounts
And question heroic titles soldiers denounce
It sounds convincing convicting wrongdoings
From the comfort of the side that controls the music
Every truth is marketed, roots sold their seeds
For pollination at the price of being a tool for greed
Fight for independence through independence
And you better be fully strapped up to defend it
But once it ascends to a trend, better be consented
To how the average translates the content
Constant compromise of contrast
Is needed to complete the puzzle if we’re ever gonna last
But when elected elements electrify everything
Every bit is scrutinized and it gets
Criticized without any effort to define
What is really wrong and so the younger ones paint blindly
Sign deals to buy into stereotypes
Of keeping it really monotonous like ridiculous hypes
Fads fade away, but it strengthen the art
So the essence of this beautiful culture will never depart
It’s an ongoing renaissance never pause for death
Coz staying sick is our definition of health
Interpretations differ thus we spar endlessly
Better suit up kid,coz we’ve got a common enemy

I’m a firebrand with a band of tired hands
Drive the entire empire panicking in a single glance
Rioting without a plan,rebel to any man
Desire lands of unity without a clan dispute
Walk the same earth we are put to rest to
Same roots like moses muhammad and jesus
U-N-I versus the curse of difference
Breaking apart U-N-I Think whY this is
What our children would now grow to witness
“Pick a race to run with son and win this
Particular time and space for a place above common sense
Dictate the morals of the current populace
And draw disgrace over the portraits
Of those with a different body color and shape
Make it as if hate to us is a particular trait they’re born with“
But observe this is a practice opposing sides both play
The alternative is even worse
Contest of capital decapitate your competition to be first
Blood thirst quenched by the clench
Of the sense of power over numbers making a fence
Against those with loose ends in their pockets
While you enjoy your plastic happiness from forged profits
Mother earth’s treasure chest we chase after
But we still fight only to keep the change constant
It’s our nature to relate,long to belong
Which grows to hate those not singing the same song
You feel strong in numbers preying on others
Looking up to self while you really fail to look outwards
We’re a peculiar mix of uniquely equals
Different sides of us relate to different groups of people
And the beauty of God dividing us in fractions
Is so we’d drop our differences for a friendly handshake

(verse 1)
She meant the whole world but for her he was the whole world
She was his only girl but at times
She wished she was the only girl he would ever spend time with
Been together infinitely it was definitely timeless
Bottomless depths she swam into
Whirlpools of love where she breathes in out and bleeds too
Sees through his hard hat of trust,but underneath
The thick skull she was the soul in the life that he leads
He leaves her eager to see her arms around him
Whenever the winter gets too cold in her surroundings
Named her a star so she’d outshine the darkness
Gave him another million coz she never stopped counting
That’s how long these rocks pierced her skin
Constellations of words that could just burst,but then
The turmoils under sparkles gets settled from within
Adjusts his gaze dials the telescope to talk to her again
(verse 2)
And they talked about the big bang underneath their chest
The day they collided long before she hit the road for the best
Long before the mess spawned from the other galaxies
Ignored the fallacies about the damaging distance
Heavyweight lovers through the light years
The only dark matter is the matter of her fragile bones if he held her tighter
Heightened anticipation as she patiently dreams
About the nearing end so she can finally breathe
Calculate degrees of love and you can pin point
The coordinates of their nebula where each smile is born
Heart is torn when he turns around to face another
Feels overshadowed half the time but keeps it undercover
And she’s set to rise in his horizon despite the time zones
Every hour orbiting each other is another milestone
And all i do is sit back,watch,and listen
As my elder sister grows to grow her own solar system
(verse 3)
And the absence of his celestial body often leaves
A black hole of which the gravity is love and she’s hopelessly
Drawn to the icy strokes of his trail
Collecting every star dust to reinforce herself
And she journeyed through the orbits without the wormholes,
Far away from home,roam like a homeless
Holding on to dreams of wearing saturn rings
As she zeros in hyper speed to his coordinates
Constantly trace the stars with her fingers
To leave hieroglyphics so his zodiac could reach her
Communicate in golden texts to let her know he’s listening
And even if she silenced herself she secretly misses him
And i could relate to the frustration
Coz putting love on the phone line requires patience
But still they shine brighter than i could ever try
And every night i see them slow dance up in the sky

Rap Gladiator
02:16

Dark prince of light,stalk weaklings,spar
Only with the stars in arenas when the beef is sparked
Skill level is stark like tony with the iron fist
Got his opponents netted up in his cyber list
Scientist in brawls with the hooligans
Timelessly warring with his inner self
In the cells,past guilt is burning him
But he used it to fuel up his soul psylliums
Swimming back up the skies as a champion
Elevated podium made from cemented craniums
Pain is uhmm,nothing compared to glory
Spectators suspect fakes but they still tell his story
How he flipped karate kicks was hella sick
And hit ‘em back with power hits force of a ton of bricks
Lyrically stunning quick with attention grabs
Lines of punches and jabs,they retaliate in scabs
Left rings in laughter,no conference after
Save the spit for next olympian chapters
News team could only capture him in quotables
Nothing in the tabloids could make him seem vulnerable
Fully able to turn the tables from scratch
Juggling stabs,beatings with heart breaks to match
Techniques to catch the hats off
Like Madoff when he pulled a fast one on his last fall
Artists and their Repertoires would back off
From challenges of outlasting him in a grand stand off
Brave ones got their backs smoldered
With bruises and cuts from the poison quills he uses
Past time is filled with riddling sand bags
With sharp metaphors and tracks that is dark at the core
As a child he dug up hip hop to the source
Knowledge is the force he radiates from as a rap gladiator

(verse 1 - Saphuan)
What's up my name is Saphuan
I cook tracks like Raekwon
Just one hit, you gone like J-kwon
Imma rap til infinity and beyond
Pawn wacks til they dead and gone
Run tracks like a 100 meter sprinter
Forever the winner in ciphers and battles
You can't handle the style of
The urban rebel, 9-5 hustler
Fightin everyday like I'm in Gaza
I'm fly, above the clouds like Goku
Teach you how to roll like this is high skool
Check the rhyme architecture, got the right texture
Can I kick it? Do I even have to ask ya?
I got the mic, I won't pass it to ya
Catch me if you can, I'll help to cheer ya
Be prepared, and pack ya bags for a leave
Shazet's in the house, neighbours can't sleep
(verse 2 - Dafrosty)
When my words manifest my figure of speech
I'm a New Born Emcee,M-I-C wrecka on beats
That's never defeated by the square ones
Rockin the jam so hard we gave birth to ill sons
I write like I take mushrooms but on a straight edge
With the tricks to kill you point blanc on the page
The rhyme weaver with the chronic dementia
Partly a schizzow,so you can see that I
Spit with a fuzzy logic,coupled with the jocular tone
The naughtiest Maximus the gladiator on the throne
Ultimate mastery of the craft,leave you stiff
Turned to ashes when the kinetics of my rhythm clicks
Conquer like alexander,the fate is sealed tight
You were defeated as a fetus,aight
Bomb the whole HQ,any rebel scum bag is fictional
While the unmentioned will turn your ego trip dysfunctional

(verse 1 – Dafrosty)
I capture fly emcees like Mister Miyagi
Smash you with the knife before I mince you like garlic
I’m all in fake tears when I slice you like onions
Turn up the heat, as I throw you in the frying pan
Hit you with the fork till you crack like eggshells
Break you down like the yolk and see how much you can spill
Fuckin herb, I toss you in the turbulence
Spice it up with my flow, It’s the perfect formula
Now I take all your chicks slaughtered in front of ya
Dip em in the mix, yeah I like em soakin up
Let em float in my steaming bubbly bath
Call me the alchemist, turning gold from ass
In the mean time I serve you with the menu
Full of threat if you can’t afford to pay dues
Now it’s about time,we had fun in the kitchen
Bon appetit, I eat emcees like fried chicken
(Verse 2 – Kwizyne)
Jamie Oliver cross over the Iron chef
In the kitchen that Raekwon built for Cuban linx
Hot in depth like the frying set
Stay phat dunked in oil coz he do it slick.
Talent agents pick your poison
I’ll show you real drunken style once marinated
Say grace as a practicing tablemannerist, no illegal substances reserved uh
To add in dish, preserve perishable food without cans and additives
Its a classic hit, keep your elbows and silent cellphones
Before you’re velcro-ed spoon feed your shit
The recipe the dead envy won’t give rest to locals
7th month ghosts response’s reciprocal
Delivery is on time don’t push the dial
When u reach my hotline, look for Michael
(Verse 3 – El Genio)
Blend in with the gastronomic proportions
When I cut these emcees into bite-size portions
Slice you and post on the internet, creating a meme trend
Now the question is, will it blend?
Make these tough emcees look soft with meat tenderizers
With their gay posse like mixing with 11 herbs and spices
No question who raps the freshest ingredients
When even the hungriest emcees scavenges
My backyard for the freshest carcasses
The diabolical genius with a butcher’s knife
Going insane with godly features
I turn water into Lupe Fiasco’s first album name
Freeze them in subzero temperatures, below 0 degrees
Im so sick you’re afraid to share drinks with me

(Verse 1)
Nothing in life is truly free except life itself
For any extra pleasure the only price is death
A breath of illusion is only worth facing
If you're ready to leave the magic of your birth wasted
Endless downfall is where you're headed
Eternally imprisoned by your own instruments of escape
Get set for that rush of heaven flushing you down to hell
Curse your life away when you drown in the spell
Another one rides the rusty lane of happy dreams
Everything will be fine now it finally seems
Enjoy your moment up there till your dose weakens
Don't even give a damn about the gravity speeches
Get immersed in your ocean of diamond skies
Stranded on your island far away from the lies
Things will get better now if you ignore the signs
Keep that thing flowing like reality is the real crime
(Chorus)
Salvation,salvation,salvation is free
Salvation,salvation,salvation is free
False senses of hope are sold in a capsule
Make em dead broke when they wanna get cured
Monopolize the soul-searching methods
While evading tax records in your rule the world Effort,make it look sacred
Strip the children naked from weapons of thought
By the time they rebel they have already lost
Take them to war as a pawn in your marketing plans
Parents point fingers away from the devil's shadow hands
Heavy is the head that wears that frown
Where is your beloved seed heading to now?
Never back down,coz your weapon is love
Keep fighting to reclaim your daughters and sons
The greatest gift in life is to actually be there
In their hardest times,help them fight away fear
Be the hands to grab them when they reach out
Be the first thing in life they look for when they need help
(Chorus)
Salvation,salvation,salvation is free
Salvation,salvation,salvation is free

To all my fellas on the quest to get iller
To little kids with so much to deal with
The next train comes in five minutes
And I'm scribbling thoughts to not get bored in this-
exchange from walking to high speed trains
Massive capacity to carry people away
From the heart of the city to the skinny beaches
From the depth of the country to the tourist features
The business districts are busy with people
This train station is the only place that we're all equal
I see the many faces that wait for the train to come
Many walks of life stationary all of the sudden
They only start moving to board or leave the trains
Ages of races is how long we have to wait
The faces are vast in variety of and status
Incomes and looks, fashion and appearance
I love to watch the babies in their mothers' arm sheilds
Also the snobbish girls who got nothing else to unveil
Standing with the squashed, rush hour, waiting-
to arrive at my exit, it really takes patience
We gain savings of travel expenses, teaches us-
to be humble coz no matter where you're from, you're stuck in between stations
This is where journeys start and end
Seven in the morning and just after ten
We either catch some sleep or prepare for amends
While lovers find it a great place to spend time together
This is the kind of place for anyone to coincide
Mind the person next to you, tryna enjoy the ride
Annoying service announcements are the only music
Unless you brought gadgets of escape, please use it
There aint no place to sit? the floor is always clean
Especially for long trips, why not rest your feet
Watching the others leave gives room to breath
And your heart is pleased when you're almost reaching your stop
Doors open wide like arms greeting me home
Tap out my card, still a long walk to go
Got on the escelator, get out the underground
Elevate to ground level, embracing the traffic sound
For this portion of my journey, I walk alone
Accompanied only by strangers walking the same floors
Walk past the food courts, some are still open
But it's time for cleanup duty so they wouldn't take your order
My stomach is almost filled with hunger
What is tonight's leftover? I'm starting to wonder
But thank God, He gave me a nice landlady
Who cooks a little extra instinctive of my singing belly
I pass by reality teasing destiny
Morals are divorced, fathers could never rest in peace
I'm walking in between blocks that built a nation
Tourism ads censor out what the habitat embraces
Double storey houses are attacked by burglars
While the people in the flats are left by the government
The barking dogs disrupt my deep thinking
The old lady left food for the stray cats again
Five minutes to home, creeping with the bats
Between these bungalows, fatigue is still attached
It's been a log day and it's about to end soon
I can almost smell the piss I'll be releasing inside the bathroom
The smell of the shophouses I consume
As I approach the elevator going up to level one-two-
Twelve, the lift gives me the freaks
Especially after watching Ju-on 2 the one with the kid
I look down at this page as I get to my floor
I hear screams of the neighbours as I walk to my door
Took off my wet shoes, unlock the grill
Dial your number trying to ignore my phone bill
No matter where we and what we've been through
I'm always coming back home to you
Even if our faith was proven untrue
I'm always coming back home to you
They can try to win my heart but I saved your room
I'm always coming back home to you
Smiling on the outside crack the shell I am blue
I'm always coming back home to you
Walking 'round the blocks like when we used to
I'm always coming back home to you
I would always believe I would get to see you soon
I'm always coming back home to you

(intro)
Relativity: Physics. the dependence of various physical phenomena on relative motion of the observer and the observed objects..
Physical phenomena..
The observer..
(verse 1)
Two cycles 'round the sun,packed in a second hand box,
strolling through the hardest goodbye i never planned to face.
Amputate physical ties when they stamped my pass,
final turn,capture glimpse,hoping we're meant to last.
Walking monitored,heartbeat flat,as i crossed the platform,
that i once landed on.
These tracks of tears, it tears my flesh,
and formed the veins that forms myself.
History screams but i couldn't care less,
memories fade with each blow from the train's breath.
Once the pain evaporates i looked out the window,
sonic boom of the cabin kicking dust as the wind blows.
Passed by many colors.The nation's past life is shown-
on my journey back home.
Emotional stir shaken by the screeching brakes-
and horns,but we went on,couldn't afford a delay.
(bridge)
The dependence of various physical phenomena on relative motion of the observer and the observed objects..
The observed object..
(verse 2)
Married to a manacle,proposed her portions-
of love in hardship,even though they lived poor,still
they strolled through the bills,and grow their own stilts,
and despite some fights,they still loved the kids,
but when the storm comes he escapes with the spirits,
while she resides with the roar from the train visits.
Admires the steel muscling through her backyard,
once every meal time,it's the only home they can afford.
Fate had it's way,he cancelled an outing,
still in her make up when he left the home shouting.
Stone cold,broken promise,shattered holding glass,
it's the kind of breakdown that will be her last.
Woke the little ones,"we're going for a movie",
waited on the tear tracks and headed for the moon,see-
nobody could've predicted her suicidal actions,
but all she had to do was wait for the next train to come passing.
(news report)
Seremban. A mother and her two young daughters were killed, when a fast-moving train ran over them, on a railway track, near here.
The father, a contract worker, rushed to the scene, and, on seeing the bodies of his wife and daughters wept uncontrollably.
He later sat there numbed.
The victim's mother said, her daughter and son-in-law
had been having heated arguments for months, and the situation worsened when he lost his job recently.
“She thought of taking her own life on a few occasions, and the couple was quarrelling two days before the incident,” she sobbed.
Eyewitnesses claimed they saw the mother holding onto the children on the track, as a train approached.
One of the daughters, was seen struggling to be freed from the clutches of her mother, and breaking away before the train hit her family.
The victims were dragged about 100m after the crash.
The police had yet to establish the cause of the incident.
