about

R.I.P. Rev. Don Howell aka Pop (1936-2003)

lyrics

INTRO
Spit images vivid as Hunter it seems
Tripping on ‘cid for a month and a dream
Sentences flipping like hummingbird wings
Wishing him well in a river or stream
Death in the mirror 2003
36 chambers a house in the sea
We living to die and the memories flee
That's why This Do In Remembrance of Me

VERSE 1
Fight ice with the fire of December heat
Dopamine Decoder fucking Ring on repeat
You can see we making changes
You can hate it for free
Set your pace maker pray your heart stay to the beat
Pray they save the data on the date of release
But today I'm slaying Satan with the blade of a beast
666 carved straight the teeth
Triple six digit business straight G….O D
From the pope to the police
45 to the OGs
Heavy g's to the oz's
From the lifers to parolees
Like a life raft with a slow leak

HOOK
You don't owe me homie
You don't know me 3x
So just lemme reintroduce myself
my name is…

VERSE 2
You got nothing on me
You can smell the burnt flesh with the sun up on me
I’m solo dolo I'm a loner homie
Your feet bout to fail you now
Boy don't run up on me
More flavor than a ton of Tony's
No Toni tony tone but the one and only
But if I had no loot
Would you pretend to know me?
I don't know what you came to do brodie
Spodieodiedopalicious bout to go the distance
Thankful to even know existence
They pray for change
But got no resistance
I'm taking names ‘cause I know the difference

HOOK
You don't owe me homie
You don't know me 3x
So just lemme reintroduce myself
My name is…

VERSE 3
Simulation holy matrimony
Love birds and a magic pony
No phony cronies
Just some classic cloning
A model train galaxy
Actually mad lonely
Ask your majesty Matt Groening
Futurama magic and bad bologna
Growth hormones in the macaroni
Free your mind kill your master homie

BRIDGE
I used to feel prison killed my pops
But in way prison saved my life
Keep a photo stashed in a box
Thankful that I paid the price
I used to feel prison killed my pops
But in way prison saved my life
Now instead of chasing pills to pop
Chase dreams making sacrifice
Hard days long nights and a lot of fight
Gotta sacrifice a lot of light
Cut it out get my pocket knife
Just wait until I get my pockets right

OUTRO
Spit images vivid as Hunter it seems
Tripping on ‘cid for a month and a dream
Sentences flipping like hummingbird wings
Wishing him well in a river or stream
Daath in the mirror 2003
36 chambers a house in the sea
We living to die and the memories flee
That's why This Do In Remembrance of Me
