Patterned around The thought and the will We shattered the sound of perpendicular noise Now gather round blueprints to rebuild On top of that I found I'm gettin sick of your voice Retentive the earth makes me tend to introvert And I presented the worth of these kicks and this sprinkled shirt Ingested first four seconds and a big dessert Presented verse with sprinkles of dope interspersed When you burst it won't be an accident It'll be a worldwide web of heads takin this shit back again (6-1-2) Now find the emergency exits Cause I'm snap a spine an make example of the skeptics (Atmosphere) I don't care if ya know me or ya hate me Just come check out the show and travel back home safely Lately a weird thought occurred to me What if I was to grab the mic which one of y'all would service me? (Watch the rhythm) It ventures out to rock the restless And kill the ego Your whole karma's vibin' off the bets It's best if you take a hard look at hat you're givin me (Cause your name and your rank don't mean shit to me) Stars and stripes are like cars and bikes They're just vehicles you steer to ride other people's fears Stars and stripes are like nails and spikes They're just tools you use against physical rules Put down your weapons son Nah I'm afraid I'm not gonna be able to do that Put down your weapons son Nah my man think I'm gonna have to pull some rank on ya Put down your weapons son This is part of the new rebellion Would you put down your weapon Call me solider bring it in I heard a group of little voices in a thousand heads Calling me out of my rest to come plow your steps An elder once told me to always use precision (Discretion and vision when you start the ignition) Cause any engine is highly delicate And what you try to say is irrelevant If you're just talkin for the hell of it I smell some shit Check your soul brother did you step in it? Now who suffers from mic control deficit? I can't go out like you (Cause you lack dopeness) I'll break your whole crew down to (A bunch of whack poets) Shrapnel gets lodged under your clavicle When your man exploded Atmosphere concocted antidote shit Fuck em and the record deal they broke in on When Shaun is in this vocal booth I come to choke your truth Broke your screws now it's open and loose (Beyond came along and stabbed the DJ in the foot) The spoke bend and buckle (And the wheel collapses) There ain't no need to ask whether or not you feel the Atmos I'm peeling back head performing brain surgery And sewin em back up, there, now you heard of me When the smoke clears you won't be able to choke tears When the smoke clears, when the smoke clears When the smoke clears you won't be able to choke tears When the smoke clears, when the smoke clears Put down your weapons sir (Inaudible) Put down your weapons sir (I'm trying to bring some substance to the table) Put down your weapons sir (I'm frustrated even kids I'm befriendin) Put down your weapons sir (Circa where you at?) As I sit here with my head between my hands Attention span focused on tryin to read the plans I can't shake the thoughts that it might be in vain So I play the radio while I drive me insane (I travel like the wind) I travel like Avis I feel like I've been to hell and back and I ain't even been to Vegas Pages and pages of notebooks dedicated To separating snakeskin and amputating fake limbs (Underestimated) But when you heard me Your masculinity went girly And your whole crew broke out early (Self-preservatin) Avoidin this is the first choice Calculated step the fuck away when you hear this voice Moist that's how we leave em rendered Either the brain or the pubic region dependin on your gender And if you're a female head (No disrespect intended) Unless you step to me on the mic you must be shedding your placenta I wear the honor of a M.C.s past Where I wander is this wasteland encased in cheap glass Reflect to define the status where you stand (You're just another victim with a mic in your hand) When the smoke clears you won't be able to choke tears When the smoke clears, when the smoke clears (x4) When the smoke clears you won't be able to choke tears (x7) When the smoke, smoke
