lyrics

Been a long time since I took my own medicine.
End of the line. Last stop for the Edisons.
Tesla is back, no room for the hesitant.
Ain't room on tracks when I unpack my fetishes.
Letruce is low. I’m quick with the dime.
Get it to go and I’m back from the crime.
Let it get rolled and let me unwind.
Put on that old "Remember the Time."
Michael is king, but Michael is dead.
Ain’t it a thing? A beautiful wreck.
Still known for singing my soul for a check.
Still known for killing it every set.
Never respect that I pay my dues.
Every sentence is made to break through.
Never repent when I’m sent to the booth.
This revenant is bent on defending the truth.

The game is full of fakes
Put the butcher on the case
The game is full of lies
The butcher’s on the rise.

Philly that city. I made it my home,
But in Madrid you’ll find some of my soul.
So many scars I have yet to atone.
So many sins I am just skin and bone.
Leave me alone. I’ll do it myself.
Cobble a throne of bruises and welts.
Carry my stone I carry it well.
From what I’ve known I fashion my spells.
Fashion my spells? Fashion my look.
Fashion is hell so I’ll never get hooked.
Fashioned to sell so each play by the book
Asking to tell my tales right for the crooks.
Shook up a bit by the boy who cried shark.
Took up a pen and I write in the dark.
Carving these words into bullets and darts.
Fearing that one will fit right in my heart.

The game is full of fakes
Put the butcher on the case
The game is full of lies
The butcher’s on the rise.

When the butcher pushes back. Pressure cooker on a track.
Squalid scholar gotta holla back. Honor lap.
Hollow horror, follow that. Y’ain't wanna follow Black.
Sipping witchcraft jack, from his matte black flask.
All these masked lab rats they keep scratching at his back,
But they best act fast, because they forgot the mack
Spit that basilisk rap with that voodoo boom bap
And if they don’t shut they traps
I’m gonna school 'em how to act.

The game is full of fakes.
