i think my brains trying to kill me
im kinda tryna kill it
im getting pulled to chems
probably acting like a nusiance
now im back in shoes with no holes
got the oddest rep that you could cop on the gulf coast
im obviously kinda of a goner, too broke
look, kid im not cocky, flow is all ghost
I'm swinging brass knuckles
crackin' whole bones
A -C -A -B
we're aimin', no joke
I wanna see you fash fall flat
come throw your hands up
I know you cant scrap
your livin a sitcom
your backin' the wrong class
i bettin' they'll be gone
the second that we clash
I'm not fuckin around
might burn city hall to the ground
might tour to your town
come to write up a riotous sound
Might do like de cleyre and declare theres no crown
I said I don't think it makes sense
he only had one thing to say and its this:
"live fast
and die young"
I'm a dead man walkin
rapping over organs
really finished talking
torchin all your fortress
googling detournment
seems ironic
rich folks think kids hearin my records a problem
no need to flip
kid i admit
i dont play in a way the comfortable would permit
we dont got time
not when they take lives
we've all seen cops holding guns like a ladder to meet christ
well
dead anarchists are tellin us sure
you could say the states a kind of a church
either way I aint sayin' no sirs
or payin a single tithe
hope all you alt-right types take a walk in the tide
im rappin' in molotovs
pass em at armored cars
... still trying to get enough water and sleep
like old gods in the deep
the only option I'd probably peep
is getting ready to rock
I'm slingshottin' you sheep
mind changer. this is the Sole record ive been waiting for. everything on point. style honed. music open and on lease. best Sole album for me. love it. GalacticSON
Originally bought the CD years ago, but streaming it while riding through Northeast OH seemed like the appropriate way to listen to the album at high volume. Peace and respect to the entire BeatRock Fam. AA
This wonderful album hit me hard in 2003. Boards of Canada / Autechre were on the pure exploratory electronic side of music. Sole with seling live water came unexpectedly with a noisier and more electronic variant at that time, which was understood as hip hop. Very well aged, still valid and no favorite to choose. Solid!
Thanks for the uplifting Rmxs! nikarabot
