lyrics

Tell me what’s worse than/ learning all that you lead to believe was all horse crap/
They distort so question as if you Rorschach/ Horsemen force men and they’ve long been having the course mapped
It ain’t that you can’t see’ cause you can find it homes/ it’s that you don’t want to you cope by putting blinders on/
I’ve been trying to find some kinda, way but I’ve kinda known/ that y’all would rather whine, latch to nonsense 'cause your mind is gone/
I can’t save every person and politicking is bringing the worst out the very earth/
and every perk of living on this turf is being chipped at and nerf but I can’t sit back and lurk I’ve gotta hit back I’m certain it’s my purpose..

Looking at the technological advances/
I used to be on dial up looking for answers/
Now what? Under-appreciate what’s candid/ and 20 years later we got computers that hand fit/
Used to be playing Sega genesis with bros and now we gaming with some folks on the other side the globe../
Used to go through a label if you trying blow/ now people got more options on the table, gotta post/
Social media... got us connected as ever on every medium/ should be more righteous and clever but what we seeing is.. communication is error and still the devious.. evil’s immediate, tedious that you gotta be remediate, kuz idiots get heebee jeebes in the event that they don’t agree witcha/
Try to ruin ya whole life, 'Cause you say what they dislike, god forbid y’all disagree without a fight/
the type of stuff that, would clear up if you lighten up jack, your trife is subject, your life would right if you’d give up that/

You’re mad at nothin’, not adding up when/ you sad enough at/ a sad sack that gets aggravated and now you pay it forward/ let people make your blood boil/ emotions firing like microwaved foil or the oil they annoy you/ you at another’s neck for the wrong reason/ election years now seeming like full blown seasons/

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic

It's hard to pick a favourite track. This is the only album i have so far deemed as "perfect", where every track, even the intro, is just a masterpiece in its own right. From the hard hitting Perturbator's Theme to the emotional title track, its 68 minutes of perfection. 10/10. connivingkhajiit
