lyrics

EASTER ISLAND

[VERSE 1] Got the recipe for destiny hold your breath for the reckoning / steady and heavily dead set on the trajectory / resurrect direction I'm affectionately pestering / manifesting blessings while they festering in ecstasy / desperate times desperate measures make the best in me / deadly gestures heavy lectures with a pressure leak / hide and treasure seek pleasuring the flesh of me / fetch an etch-a-sketch and make a mess of F'n everything / fools get the ether burning sherm and on a quest to be / Judas with the Easter Sunday sermon burning effigies / esoteric arrogance shared with the refugees / you'd be fortunately blessed to leave

[HOOK] We got that bass everybody move everybody shake bass / can't nobody lose everybody make waves / I ain't nobody new everybody save face / let your body bruise everybody break bass / everybody move everybody shake bass / can't nobody lose everybody make waves / I'm everybody's muse when I state my case / if somebody's amused let me let me

[VERSE 2] Separate from yesterday tomorrow's got a debt to pay / no expiration date just estimated restoration rate / everybody’s Lazarus I got some dead to wake / wait Machiavelli with a death to fake / don't hesitate I’d rather decorate with pepper spray / than let it waste away to anything that’s less than great / if it don’t work how much practice does perfection take / rhetorically asking just a fraction of one breath I take / go to sleep / it's all but impossible hopping dodging them obstacles / farther off of my rocker harder my bars are to follow 'em / scoffing at offerings often awesomely audible / make believers out of dreamers that think it's highly improbable / awkwardly logical but facts never bother 'em / it's awful in Gotham so get my bat man I'm robbing 'em / from bottom to top now that I'm stable I'm unstoppable / balancing life and death just like the doctors and hospitals / I'm dirty ya heard me milk the filthiest wordplay / so ahead of my time you'd swear this my 50th birthday / he's sickening isn't third person in first place / verses with turbulence crash to earth how does dirt taste with bass

[HOOK] Everybody move everybody shake bass / can't nobody lose everybody make waves / I ain't nobody new everybody save face / let your body bruise everybody break bass / everybody move everybody shake bass / can't nobody lose everybody make waves / I'm everybody's muse when I take my place / somebody's amused let me let me

[VERSE 3] Settle it evidence evidently irrelevant / I'm prepared for irreverence let em hate for the hell of it / check my etiquette never sit in a room with an elephant / eloquently addressing the mess you stressing as excellence / confess I'm blessed but my pencil's a pessimist / don't test the best you lack central intelligence / fresh to death with professional elements / the perfection you relish in is just delicate rhetoric / go to sleep / go to sleep shh

[BRIDGE] We got to make it out this place some day / hopefully we'll make it out this place some way / ain’t nowhere to run nowhere can make them safe / you don’t want to make my mistake / we got to make it out this place some day / hopefully we'll make it out this place some way / ain’t nowhere to run nowhere can make them safe / you don’t want to make my mistake

[OUTRO] Some of ‘em are rumbling with mumbling beasts / some of ‘em are rumbling with mumbling beasts / some of ‘em are rumbling with mumbling beasts / test my peace please / what some of ‘em are rumbling with mumbling beasts / some of ‘em are rumbling with mumbling beasts / some of ‘em are rumbling with mumbling beasts / test my peace peace
