Canary In A Mine Like a canary in a mine if I start singing death I hope you’re carrying a 9 8 years deep said I’d marry her in 9 Kings Queen blowing cloud rings staring at the sky Sub-Zero temperatures still tearing out my spine Stars above us hover in a paramount design This is cinema, my piss and vinegar makes living difficult We kiss the stitches shut until it parallels the mind Constellations look like pointillism poignant pen places poison in em Dropping gems like an oyster center Got a koi fish in him swimming where the noise is hidden Now I can’t avoid the venom, love-torn from the Joy Division Increase the dosage til peaks that I reach are closer And heavens still seem below us this medicine eats its own My memories each alone, vermillion dreams recurring I’m sketching it with a rose, you left it beneath my bones My speech is blurring it’s reoccurring I need to learn To play my part, We’re made of carbon that means if it breathes it burns Seasons turn to frost-bitten August went into freezing first Beast of burden walks in a tarpit until he sinks in dirt, awkward I’m dancing with two left feet to a eulogy One day I hope my passion turns my ashes into jewelry Ruining all I touch when the blood-covered the jubilee Maneuvered through the cruelty, beautifuls what you grew to be Death isn’t a question I’m taking it like a lesson I etched into in my skeleton case in I forget the message A vestige of bad intentions, No Heaven won’t make it better Those devils don’t take a breather, they stay and assess wreckage With that Hara-Kiri nearing I’m peering across the ocean My periodic devotions grow teary-eyed from the poems So weary I’ve been unfocused I’m hearing cries from my close ones A myriad of emotions I’m mirror-like in my opus Let the breath get in I’m present more precious than any gem is Sentimental mental’s heavy no respite from leaded headaches Here they come, nobody hears me I’m clear you see through the charades Never let go of the echoes but savor the time I’m blessed with

Wicca Phase Springs Eternal: See me go back and forth This is not self control Trapped in a mild state Settled in my old ways Never been here I'm sure Never this far before Even though I'm unsafe Oddly I'm not afraid Then I go on and cave How do I speak to me Only in harsher tones Only so I can't breath I do this to myself Speaking in secrets I can't tell Put it all on the edge Picking it up I fell Sadistik: Butterflies die when I cover my eyes You poured salt on the cuts on my mind Tongue full of venom in these summertime nights Jump from a edifice what if I fly? Yea I been drifting off, in a fog, centers synagogue Listening to inner gods telling me I’m different Like a demagogue, I don’t want to interrupt Cinema in the cuts, indicas inhale in my crystal lungs Til it looks like an evergreen’s inside me Seasonal leaves seem to redefine me They deify things I leave behind Sing in minor keys I don’t see the irony Iron lung but my teeth are ivory Mama says that she thinks I’m out of reach Girlfriend says she don’t see that side of me I don’t say shit I just keep it silent The sunset on Sunset’s peach and violet No more blood-letting when the leeches bite me One more love letter ‘fore the creatures find us I’ll show you the shadows that my secrets hide in Take what they need then they leave you lifeless A chrysalis lives so deep inside you Below the surface where demons riot A broken person grows so subversive Choke on words so the screams are quiet Can’t hear the sirens though they keep their eye on me Maybe one day I’ll learn to cease my fire I hope you’re still there when I seek asylum Wicca Phase Springs Eternal: Here I am back again Silhouette of a shell I am Still in a darkened place Fighting another hell I am Something here hurts my head Something here leaves me strange Nothing can hold me back No one here knows my name Then I go on and cave How do I speak to me Only in harsher tones Only so I can't breath I do this to myself Speaking in secrets I can't tell Put it all on the edge Picking it up I fell

Lazarus 02:59
Either turn a blind eye, or learn to climb high Heights are bird’s-eye, pining birds cry From pines opining the words I per-scribe Combine the sight-seeing perched on birch I Got burned on pyres heard the word to wise Search the surface sure fits are first to die All my personal ties-dyed by turpentine Time to turn the tides, tidals turned to fires If I don’t earn my stripes I go serpentine This is versifier versus verse for hire I surf the current search where urchins hide Describe the words so verdant averse to liars In the lair layers-peeling earths design Later pills appeal built purple skies Way uphill & still felt immersified Murdered like rehearsal it hurts to find While we live in the gutter they mimic each other I’m gutted like fishes while fishing for love And I give em the mud from my limbs like a drug They’re so limited, lemon on tongue Heavy lead from my lungs I’m a leper these leopards left steps on my stomach It’s never enough, I’m the Shepard you summoned The sum of the efforts, still some are for never Let everything flush because nothings forever You ever just tasted your blood? Maybe it’s rust I’m erasing the touches you left on my skeleton breaking the trust Still defacing my days, while I’m facing the flood I’m a raisin in suns, raising razors to cut Cut aways to the rays in the summer Arrays of the thunder I’d make just to savor the suffering Chasing what was, we’re all made just to fade into dust Were created then placed in the dust Fold my limbs up like origami It makes it easy to store the body Humor me & my morbid hobbies They're made of carbons of course they copy So they're zombies flow to heartbeats Prose McCarthy, Murakami Atheist spits with form that’s godly That ain’t for me G that’s for my Rottie Be careful my crosshairs might come for your head From here you look like a fly stuck in a web I am so fabulous God in the flesh I am so Lazarus summon the dead I’m in my bag like Asami victims Don’t say shit, who saw me vic em? Tear through flesh like a Pardee picture You’re scared I’m read like McCarthyism Look at my scalp to see sixes aligned These Judas’ smile while they’re gripping a knife I’m know I’m a star so I give em my light We’re passing each other like ships in the night

Let’s burn down the city til Rome is in flames All the sinners in cinder but no one’s to blame Set the oceans ablaze while we hope for the rain I’ve been crowing these locusts in vain Seven Devils inside of me dead on arrival I read all the diaries heads on a spike By my bed there’s no rivalry, write with the Eiffel no idols That I can see, I am a beast so why can’t we be free? lycanthropy, I cannot breathe Perspective is hard from the heights that I reach
The dead angels they strangled all lie at their feet They’re reminding us please pay no mind to their pleas While I mine for the pulse of the people They fight for the freedom of dying that cry from the sheets ghosts that lie underneath Pose as Lions for sheep, to keep preaching their pious they lie through their teeth Let me down the oxygen’s heavier now We’re supposed to play possum while death sings its sounds Theres no Exodus, pestilence bound it’s too treacherous When is the end when this Hell is indefinite May be dramatic I’m pacing my attic like Attica Riot no quiet stay Atticus light from the tragic Shines bright from the past to illuminate trauma We hide for convenience They’re burning the city down Rome is in flames All the sinners in cinder but no one’s to blame Set the oceans ablaze while they hope for the rain I’ve been crowing these locusts in vain Seven Devils inside of me dead on arrival I read all the diaries, heads on a spike By my bed there’s no rivalry, write with the Eiffel no idols That I can see defiant to beasts why can’t we be free?

Sadistik: Pretty little zodiac tell me are you listening? Why don’t you say hello back when the ghosts are visiting? living in the sediment scribbling my sentimental Mental into wet cement Everything I said I meant Not living in the present Skies become so heavy I feel like a piñata when it’s empty I’ll fill another bottle I’m a MD 20/20 hindsight In a place that’s full of people I don’t quite like, aye Looking out the glass again Aspirations aspirate Compliments are aspartame Tears feel like they’re acid rain Always been a castaway Don’t save me I’m just trash today I’m refuse Usually you’re bruised when you get used to feeling used All these ups and downs I learned to ride the waves Most the nightmares are when I’m wide awake I don’t wanna go don’t let me die today If it makes me numb I’ll take the side effects Mick Jenkins: If it makes me numb I’ll take the side effects If it makes me… If it gets me pissed off puff smoke So much talking out the neck nigga we cut-throat now Not what you would expect Fuck your assuming we just added the seasonings Told ‘em hoe don’t be cumin when the thyme right Lime-light in my eye I don’t need that Cash when I require best believe that In hindsight was just getting by ’Til I was 25 I’m coming live Oh did I mention I beat statistics? Made the fire with the friction My diction sophisticated no fiction has been recited The credit for a belated, shit is Kriss Kriss No jokes the politicking make my dick soft put it in quotes now Fuck up out your respect See how I’m moving niggas low-key It’s hard to stay quiet with the OG on me Only a couple niggas I call homies these days Said some prayers that got the phonies erased If we ain’t FaceTiming then you ain’t really know me these days Not too much talking do my growing silent

Rainbow Road 02:43
Shrooms hit til its rainbow road I grew sick of the same old jokes And moved quick where the angels roam They won’t save your soul Flip the world watch em fall through their halo holes We bruise skin, fused in contusion art Short fuse interviews to renew the scars They love you when you’re new but they’ll soon depart I stayed hunted by the gloom, you assumed the part Fuchsia brushstrokes paint the skies with their love notes Beauty minutiae petunias bloom from a cut throat A million lights at night go in a sequence Did I really live this life or did I dream it? I don’t want to be here But I don’t want to leave yet Verse 2: I go Romero so feral when I bear it all I’ll skin my enemies and stretch it out like Harold Narrow arrows thrown at my apparel Throne of Blood & Marrow Crows above a scarecrow Made of straw men arguments and table salt Major flaws cut me open like a table saw Saw my inner demons thinking that they’re made of god Solemn bits and pieces sink into Venetian skies I feel alive in the in the moment between dreams and strife The words grow from my bones til they’re needle-like Porcupine spine dying at the speed of light Days from a normal life aged like California wine Trapped in a maze like I’m Coraline Unamazed mortified unfazed by the thorazine Lord of Flies head on a stake that you glorified If you’re scared to know yourself this is horrifying The same me it’s just more refined In a grave deep where the orchids lie Orcas die inside me every time I sing a whale song Seattle rain became a hail storm I don’t wanna leave yet but I don’t wanna be here Everything I love will be swallowed in the ether

An anthem for anathemas I show anatomy dissect me like a basilisk Display it on a mantlepiece Lady Lazarus resurrect with praising passages Let’s connect our skeletons to save me from the gravitas Small talk lips covered in coarse salt Acid touch armadillo armor arms are Jax’s come And harbor with an active storm Place it in a frame until it’s palpable Castle Freak bleeding alcohol beneath these castle walls Dastardly bastard boy screaming til the shadows fall Cataloging agony dreaming of an asteroid Streaming I’m so lacrimal after all ash dissolves I hope they see it’s masterful Suspended in suspense Upended with the rest, never resting Yet I’m catatonic Living like a matador scribbling in travel logs Apple cores littered in my apologues Appaloosas running through my sadder moments All the pretty horses
