Out of Context Lines: Mulberry Street (Pt. 70)

Congrats to Spokloo for the last one! I apologize for the missed days. I’ll finally be out of the hospital tomorrow! Thanks for sticking through all that.

Here’s Mulberry Street:

Keep your bliss

There's nothing wrong with this

Keep your sunny days

Leave us in the rain

Tie strings to our hands and feet

To rain on your parade

You can have the weekends

We will live between them

Keep your pills, save your breath

And don't ever forget

Get out of our way

We're moving sideways

Welcome to Mulberry Street, yeah

So move out of our way

We're pushing sideways

Keep sidewalk under your feet

Ain't no sunny skies, 'til you finally realize

That everybody relies on synthetic highs

They find someone to prescribe

Keep your bliss

There's nothing wrong with this

We just wanna feel it all

Keep your pills, save your breath

And don't ever forget

Get out of our way

We're moving sideways

Welcome to Mulberry Street, yeah

So move out of our way, we're pushing sideways

Keep sidewalk under your feet

When times aren't the best

And I'm on the edge

I'll listen for a song in the distance

Mulberry Street, so good to see you

Mulberry Street, so good to see you

Mulberry Street, so good to see you

Mulberry Street

And don't ever forget

Get out of our way

We're moving sideways

Welcome to Mulberry Street, yeah

So move out of our way

We're pushing sideways

Keep sidewalk under your feet

Get out of our way, we're moving sideways

Welcome to Mulberry Street, yeah

So move out of our way (so good, so good)

We're pushing sideways

Keep sidewalk under your feet (so good to see you)

Keep your bliss

There's nothing wrong with this

Out of Context Lines: Never Take It (Pt. 69)

Congrats to the-mickel for the last one! Sorry for no upload yesterday, I’m definitely recovering but it’s not easy

Here’s Never Take It:

Now that they know information

Is just a currency and nothing more

Keep the truth in quotations

‘Cause they keep lying through their fake teeth

Ooh

They’re trying hard to weaponize

You and I

We’ll never take it

They’re asking for a second try

You and I

Will never take it

Why cure disease of confusion

When you’re the treatment facility?

How can we seek restitution

When they keep lying through their fake teeth?

Ooh

They’re trying hard to weaponize

You and I

We’ll never take it

They’re asking for a second try

You and I

Will never take it

We’ll never take it

They’re asking for a second try

You and I will never take it from ‘em

[x2]

The summer I watched the tube

I saw enough

Taught myself to play guitar

Tearing it up

And my advice on those two things

That I picked up

You better educate yourself

But never too much

(Weaponize, you and I)

Never take it

Ooh

They profit from a great divide

You and I will never take it

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Ooh

They’re trying hard to weaponize

You and I

We’ll never take it

They’re asking for a second try

You and I

Will never take it

Out of Context Lines: Saturday (Pt. 68)

Congrats to jetttblack for the last one!

Here’s Saturday:

Slow down on Monday

Not a sound on Wednesday

Might get loud on Friday

But on Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

We paint the town

Lose my sense a time or two

Weeks feel like days

Medicate in the afternoon

And I just want to know

Have you lost your footing, too?

I just pray that I'm not losing you

Catch me floating circles in my fishbowl

Keep things fresh

She said that I should change my clothes

I exaggerate the life we used to know, oh, oh

Slow down on Monday

Not a sound on Wednesday

Might get loud on Friday

But on Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

We paint the town

Ooh, you're good

These are my dancing shoes

We paint the town

Ooh, you're good

Thought I would dance with you

Might get loud on Friday

But on Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

We paint the town

Life moves slow on the ocean floor (feeling great)

I can't feel the waves anymore

Did the tide forget to move?

I just pray that I'm not losing you

Catch me floating circles in my fishbowl

Keep things fresh

She said that I should change my clothes

I exaggerate the life we used to know, oh, yeah

Working on music?

Yeah

I'll just to go to bed, I'm tired

I wanna watch "Friends" with you

Oh, if you feel like you have time to do a song or you're inspired

You should just go for it

(Oh) Slow down on Monday

Not a sound on Wednesday

Might get loud on Friday

But on Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

We paint the town

We paint, paint

Might get loud on Friday

But on Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

Out of Context Lines: The Outside (Pt. 67)

Thank you all for the comments wishing me luck on the surgery! I’m alright, still recovering in the hospital though so I might be inconsistent in the coming days with these posts. That being said, WE ARE SO BACK

Congrats to Ok_Pass_640 for the last one!

Here’s The Outside:

I'm already bored

I'm pretty sure I've seen this one before

I've got a long drive, I'll tape my eyes

So I don't fall asleep again

Singing out

Up and down

They're nodding

Heads are moving up and down

You got it

Everybody stand in line

One by one, take a hit, join the club

Kids will try to take my vibes

Or am I on the outside?

I've got a long drive, I'll tape my eyes

So I don't fall asleep again

Singing out

Up and down

They're nodding

Heads are moving up and down

You got it

Everybody stand in line

One by one, take a hit, join the club

Kids will try to take my vibes

Or am I on the outside?

I am a Megalodon, oceans feeling like a pond

Swimming like a beast, underneath they be clinging on

Meteoric rise, in prehistoric times

Now that meteor is coming, coming

I am Megatron, cogs I'm stepping on

Then the little cogs got together, start a renaissance

Switch it up on me, fuel efficiency

On fumes I am running, running, running

Up and down

They're nodding

Heads are moving up and down

You got it

Everybody

Up and down

They're nodding

Heads are moving up and down

You got it

Everybody stand in line

One by one, take a hit, join the club

Kids will try to take my vibes

Or am I on the outside?

In the summer, in the summer heat

I’m in the street, in the street

[x2]

I'm on the outside in the summer heat

You can pay the cover charge, I'm in the street

Little do they know that they can't touch me

I'm vibin', vibin'

Out of Context Lines: Shy Away (Pt. 66) + pausing this series

Congrats to chutnekure for the last one!

I will be having to pause this series for a bit. I have a major surgery scheduled for Monday and will be in the ICU for at least a couple days after, so I’m not sure exactly on when I’ll be back but it will be soon! My guess is I’ll be gone for about a week or so. So I’ll see y’all then :)

Here’s Shy Away:

When I get home

You better not be there, we're placing bets you won't

Shed your modesty

And the only thing to leave behind is your own skin

On the floor

Don't you shy away

Manifest a ceiling when you shy away

Searching for that feeling

Just like an "I love you" (ooh, ooh)

That isn't words (ooh, ooh)

Like a song he wrote, that's never heard

Don't you (sh)

When you get home

You barely recognize the pictures they put in a frame

'Cause you shed your modesty

Don't circle the track

Take what you have

And leave your skin on the floor

Don't you shy away

Manifest a ceiling when you shy away

Searching for that feeling

Just like an "I love you" (ooh, ooh)

That isn't words (ooh, ooh)

Like a song he wrote, that's never heard

When I get home

Boy, you better not be there, you're long gone

Shed your modesty

Don't circle the track

Just break the cycle in half

And leave your skin on the floor

Don't you shy away

Manifest a ceiling when you shy away

Searching for that feeling

Just like an "I love you" (ooh, ooh)

That isn't words (ooh, ooh)

Like a song he wrote

That's never heard

That's never heard

An “I love you”

There isn't words

Like a song he wrote

That's never heard

Don't you shy away

Out of Context Lines: Choker (Pt. 65)

Congrats to upstairs_dawg for the last one!

Here’s Choker:

I don't bother anyone

Nervous when I stand

Choking on the circumstance

Only smoking secondhand

Cut us open, spread us out

Dry us in the sand

Lay the fibers side-by-side

And you'll begin to understand

I know it's over

I was born a choker

Nobody's coming for me

Coming for me

I don't bother anyone

Never make demands

Choking on the circumstance

Self-sabotage is a sweet romance

Seems like all I'm worth is what

I'm able to withstand

Sooner I can realize

That pain is just a middle man

I know it's over

I was born a choker

Nobody's coming for me

I see no volunteers

to co-sign on my fears

I'll sign on the line

Alone

I'm gonna change my circumstance

I know I need to move right now

'Cause

I know it's over

I was born a choker

Nobody's coming for me

(Only smoking secondhand)

I know it's over

I was born a choker

Nobody's coming for me

Coming for me

Like a little splinter

Buried in your skin

Someone else can carve it out

But when you've got the pin

It hurts a little less

And you can even push it further in

When your body's screaming out

Trust your mind's listening

Like a silhouette that you can barely see

As the shadow casts upon the ground

Where you'll eventually

Lay forever, but the day goes on

The sun moves behind you

You get taller, bolder, stronger

And the rear-view only blinds you

Out of Context Lines: Good Day (Pt. 64)

Congrats to TurbulentAccident348 for the last one! We’ve made it to Scaled and Icy!

For each album going forward, I’m picking an honorable mention that wasn’t selected for its respective song. For Trench, I picked “Down in my basement I raised him” from Pet Cheetah by Hateater1

Anyways, here’s Good Day:

I can feel my saturation leaving me slowly

Broke the news on Mom's vacation

Oh, but you know me

Low-key - I'm alright

Would you say you depend on the weather?

My sunshine

Is a buzz and a light, I'll be singing out

I know it's hard to believe me

It's a good day

Lost my job, my wife and child

Homie just sued me

Shoot my life in shoot-em-up style

Her favorite movies

Low-key - I'm alright

Would you say you depend on the weather?

My sunshine

Is a buzz and a light, I'll be singing out

I know it's hard to believe me

It's a good day

[x2]

Today's a good day

Never know, never know

When the next one will show, it'll show

So Imma sing my soul, Imma sing my soul

Yeah

So Imma sing my soul, Imma sing my soul

I'm alright

Would you say you depend on the weather?

My sunshine

Is a buzz and a light, I'll be singing out

I know it's hard to believe me

It's a good day

I’m alright

I’m alright

I think that I’m alright

It’s a good day

Out of Context Lines: Leave the City (Pt. 63)

Congrats to N238 for the last one! I think I’ll start posting these around this time every day instead of a few hours earlier like I used to since I’ve been late with so many.

Here’s Leave the City:

I'm tired of tending to this fire

I've used up all I've collected

I have singed my hands

It's glowing

Embers barely showing

Proof of life in the shadows

Dancing on my plans

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

The burning is so low it's concerning

'Cause they know that when it goes out

It's a glorious gone

It's only time before they show me

Why no one ever comes back with details from beyond

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

They know that it's almost over

(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

They know that it's almost over

(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

[x4]

In time, I will leave the city

For now, I will stay alive

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

Last year, I needed change of pace

Couldn't take the pace of change

Moving hastily

But this year, though I'm far from home

In Trench, I'm not alone

These faces facing me

They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh

They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh

What I mean

Here’s Legend:

You were one of those classic ones

Traveling around this sun

You were one of those classic ones

I wish she knew you

You were one of those classic ones

Now everybody knows

You were one of those classic ones, yeah

Alright

You're a legend in my own mind

My middle name

My goodbye

You were here when I wrote this

But the masters and mixes

Will take too long to finish

To show you

I'm sorry, I did not visit

Did not know how to take it

When your eyes did not know me

Like I know you

You were one of those classic ones

Traveling around this sun

You were one of those classic ones

I wish she knew you (I wish she knew you)

You were one of those classic ones

Now everybody knows (wish she knew you)

You were one of those classic ones, yeah

Alright

You're a legend in my own mind

My middle name

My goodbye (goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)

No (Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)

Then the day that it happened

I recorded this last bit

I look forward to having

A lunch with you again

Congrats to Destarsus for the last one 💀 These last couple lines have been VERY entertaining

Here’s Pet Cheetah:

I am on an island, no one to confide

Eight days straight, eight hours each and not one line

I can feel pressure start to possess my mind

So I'll take this beat, I should delete to exercise

No, I move slow

I want to stop time

I'll sit here 'til I find the problem

No, I move slow

I want to stop time

I'll sit here 'til I find the problem

I've got a pet cheetah down in my basement

I've raised him, and bathed him, and named him Jason Statham

I've trained him to make me these beats

Now my pet cheetah's quicker in the studio than on his feet

I'ma get mine and get going

I'm showing my faces in just enough places

I'm done with tip-toeing

I'll stay in my room

My house is the one where the vultures are perched on the roof

Get behind me

I bet this nepotistic mindset

Will help us get ours as we're growing

This clique means so much to this dude

It could make him afraid of his music

And be scared to death he could lose it

[x4]

No, I move slow

I want to stop time

I'll sit here 'til I find the problem

I can feel pressure start to possess my mind

So I'll take this beat, I should delete to exercise

Congrats to Comadon-C for the last one! That was crazy 💀 Happy part 60!

Here’s Bandito:

[x3]

I could take the high road

But I know that I'm going low

I'm a ban-, I'm a bandito

This is the sound we make

When in between two places

Where are we used to bleed

And where're our blood needs to be

[x2]

I could take the high road

But I know that I'm going low

I'm a ban-, I'm a bandito

In city, I feel my spirit is contained

Like neon inside the glass, they form my brain

But I recently discovered it's a heatless fire

Like nicknames they give themselves to uninspire

Began with bullet, now add fire to the proof

But I'm still not sure if fear's a rival or close relative to truth

Either way it helps to hear these words bounce off of you

The softest echo could be enough for me to make it through

Folina

Sahlo Folina

Sahlo Folina

Sahlo Folina

I created this world

To feel some control

Destroy it if I want

So I sing Sahlo Folina

Sahlo Folina

Sahlo...

I could take the high road

But I know that I'm going low (Sahlo)

I'm a ban-, I'm a bandito

I could take the high road

But I know that I'm going low

I'm a ban-, I'm a bandito

I could take the high road

But I know that I'm going low (Sahlo)

I'm a ban-, I'm a bandito (Folina)

I created this world

To feel some control

Destroy it if I want

So I sing Sahlo Folina

East is up, when Bishops come together, they will know that

Dema don't control us, Dema don't control

East is up

They want to make you forget

They want to make you forget

Save your razor blades now, not yet

Save your razor blades now, not yet

I'm heavy, my jumpsuit is on steady

I'm lighter when I'm lower, I'm higher when I'm heavy, oh

I'm so high, my jumpsuit takes me so high

I'm flying from a fire from Nico and the Niners, oh

East is up, I'm fearless when I hear this on the low

East is up, I'm careless when I wear my rebel clothes

Lighter when I'm (lower), higher when I'm (heavy), oh

I'm so high (I'm so high), so high (I'm so high)

Fire, Nico and the Niners

What I say when I want to be enough

What a beautiful day for making a break for it

We'll find a way to pay for it

Maybe from all the money we made, razor blade stores

Rent a race horse, and force a sponsor

And start a concert, a complete diversion

Start a mob, and you can be quite certain

We'll win but not everyone will get out

No, no

We'll win but not everyone will get out

No, no

We'll win but not everyone will get out

East is up, I'm fearless when I hear this on the low

East is up, I'm careless when I wear my rebel clothes

East is up, when Bishops come together they will know that

Dema don't control us, Dema don't control

East it up

I'm so high, so high

Congrats to the-mickel for the last one! Neon Gravestones really didn’t have much for this lol

Sorry for the late post again. Like (I think) I mentioned before, some posts this week might be delayed because of my medical treatment :)

Here’s The Hype:

Sometimes I feel cold, even paralyzed

My interior world needs to sanitize

I've got to step through or I'll dissipate

I'll record my step through for my basement tapes

Nice to know my kind will be on my side

I don't believe the hype

And you know you're a terrible sight

But you'll be just fine

Just don't believe the hype

Yeah, they might be talking behind your head

Your exterior world can step off instead

It might take some friends and a warmer shirt

But you don't get thick skin without getting burnt

Nice to know my kind will be on my side

I don't believe the hype

And you know you're a terrible sight

But you'll be just fine

Just don't believe the hype

No, I don't know which way I'm going

But I can hear my way around

Out of Context Lines: Neon Gravestones (Pt. 56)

Congrats to Slight_Literature_67 for the last one!

Here’s Neon Gravestones (I’m so curious as to what you guys will come up with for this one):

Call, call, call

What's my problem?

Well, I want you to follow me down to the bottom

Underneath the insane asylum

Keep your wits about you while you got ‘em

‘Cause your wits are first to go while you're problem-solving

And my problem?

We glorify those even more when they..

My opinion, our culture can treat a loss

Like it’s a win and right before we turn on them

We give them the highest of praise

And hang their banner from a ceiling

Communicating, further engraving

An earlier grave is an optional way

No.

Neon gravestones try to call

(Neon gravestones try to call)

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones

Call, call, call, call

Call, call

What's my problem?

Don't get it twisted

It's with the people we praise who may have assisted

I could use the streams and extra conversations

I could give up, and boost up my reputation

I could go out with a bang, they would know my name

They would host and post a celebration

My opinion will not be lenient

My opinion, it's real convenient

Our words are loud, but now I'm talking action

We don't get enough love? Well, they get a fraction

They say "How could he go if he's got everything?"

I'll mourn for a kid, but won't cry for a king

Neon gravestones try to call

(Neon gravestones try to call)

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones

Call, call, call

Promise me this

If I lose to myself

You won’t mourn a day

And you'll move onto someone else

Promise me this

If I lose to myself

You won’t mourn a day

And you'll move onto someone else

Neon gravestones try to call

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones

But they won’t get them

No they won’t get them

They won’t get them

But they won’t get them

Don’t get me wrong, the rise in awareness

Is beating a stigma that no longer scares us

But for sake of discussion, in spirit of fairness

Could we give this some room for a new point of view?

And could it be true that some could be tempted

To use this mistake as a form of aggression

A form of succession, a form of a weapon

Thinking “I’ll teach them,” well, I’m refusing the lesson

It won’t resonate in our minds

I’m not disrespecting what was left behind

Just pleading that it does not get glorified

Maybe we swap out what it is that we hold so high

Find your grandparents or someone of age

Pay some respects for the path that they paved

To life they were dedicated

Now that should be celebrated

Congrats to Comfortable_Brief176 for the last one!

Next up is Smithereens:

You know I've always been collected, calm and chill

And you know I never look for conflict for the thrill

But if I'm feeling someone stepping towards you

Can't describe just what I'm feeling

For you, I'd go step to a dude much bigger than me

For you, I know I would get messed up, weigh 153

For you I would get beat to smithereens

You know I'll be in the corner taking notes

And you know I got your six while you're working votes

But if I'm feeling someone stepping towards you

Can't describe just what I'm feeling

For you, I'd go step to a dude much bigger than me

For you, I know I would get messed up, weigh 153

For you I would get beat to smithereens

(I would get beat to…)

You know I had to do one

You know I had to do one

You know I had to do one on the record (for you)

You know I had to do one on the record for her like this

You know I had to do one on the record for her like this

You know I had to do one on the record for her like this

You know I had to do one on the record for her

Feeling someone stepping towards you

Can’t describe just what I’m feeling

For you, I'd go write a slick song just to show you the world

For you, I know they think it's messed up to sell out for your girl

For you, I'd go step to a dude much bigger than me

For you, I know I would get messed up, weigh 153

For you I would get beat to smithereens

Here’s Chlorine:

So where are you?

It's been a little while

Sippin' on straight chlorine

Let the vibe slide over me

This beat is a chemical

Beat is a chemical

When I leave don't save my seat

I'll be back when it's all complete

The moment is medical

Moment is medical

Sippin' on straight chlorine

Lovin' what I'm tastin' (ooh)

Venom on my tongue

Dependent at times

Poisonous vibrations (ooh)

Help my body run

I'm runnin' for my life

Runnin' for my life

Sippin' on straight chlorine

Let the vibe slide over me

This beat is a chemical

Beat is a chemical

When I leave don't save my seat

I'll be back when it's all complete

The moment is medical

Moment is medical

Sippin' on straight chlorine

Fall out of formation (ooh)

I plan my escape from walls they confined

Rebel red carnation (ooh)

Grows while I decay

I'm runnin' for my life

Runnin' for my life

Yeah, I'm runnin' for my life

Runnin' for my life

Had you in my coat pocket

Where I kept my rebel red

Felt I was invincible

You wrapped around my head

Now different lives I lead

My body lives on lead

The last two lines may read

Incorrect until said

The lead is terrible in flavor

But now you double as a papermaker

I despise you sometimes

I love to hate the fight

And you in my life is like

Sippin' on straight chlorine

Let the vibe slide over me

This beat is a chemical

Beat is a chemical

When I leave don't save my seat

I'll be back when it's all complete

The moment is medical

Moment is medical

Sippin' on straight chlorine

Let the vibe, let the vibe

Let the vibe, let the vibe

Beat is a chemical, yeah

Let the vibe, let the vibe

Let the vibe, let the vibe

The moment is medical, yeah

Sippin' on straight chlorine

Let the vibe, let the vibe

Let the vibe, let the vibe

Beat is a chemical, yeah

Let the vibe, let the vibe

Let the vibe, let the vibe

The moment is medical, yeah

I'm so sorry, I forgot you

Let me catch you up to speed

I've been tested like the ends of

A weathered flag that's by the sea

Can you build my house with pieces?

I'm just a chemical

Can you build my house with pieces?

I'm just a chemical

Can you build my house with pieces?

I'm just a chemical

Can you build my house with pieces?

I'm just a chemical

Out of Context Lines: My Blood (Pt. 53)

Congrats to comet_mi for the last one!

Here’s My Blood:

When everyone

You thought you knew

Deserts your fight

I'll go with you

You're facing down

A dark hall

I'll grab my light

And go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

Surrounded and

Up against a wall

I'll shred them all

And go with you

When choices end

You must defend

I'll grab my bat

And go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

Yeah

Stay with me

No, you don't need to run

Stay with me, my blood

You don't need to run

Stay with me

No, you don't need to run

Stay with me, my blood

You don't need to run

If there comes a day

People posted up at the end of your driveway

They're calling for your head and they're calling for your name

I'll bomb down on them, I'm coming through

Do they know I was grown with you?

If they're here to smoke, know I'll go with you

Just keep it outside, keep it outside, yeah

Stay with me

No, you don't need to run

Stay with me, my blood

You don't need to run

You don't need to run

If you find yourself

In a lion's den

I'll jump right in

And pull my pin

And go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you

I'll go with you (you don't need to run)

I'll go with you

I'll go with you (you don't need to run)

Stay with me

No, you don't need to run

Stay with me, my blood

Out of Context Lines: Morph (Pt. 52)

Congrats to Destarsus for the last one!

Here’s Morph:

Can't stop thinking about if and when I'd die

For now I see that 'if' and 'when' are truly different cries

For 'if' is purely panic, and 'when' is solemn sorrow

And one invades today, while the other spies tomorrow

We're surrounded, and we're hounded

There's no 'above, ' or 'under, ' or 'around' it

For 'above' is blind belief, and 'under' is sword to sleeve

And 'around' is scientific miracle, let's pick 'above' and see

For if and when we go 'above, ' the question still remains:

Are we still in love, and is it possible we feel the same?

And that's when going 'under' starts to take my wonder

But until that time, I'll try to sing this...

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

What they throw at me's too slow

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost

I'll morph to someone else

Defense mechanism mode

He'll always try to stop me, that Nicolas Bourbaki

He's got no friends close, but those who know him most know

He goes by Nico

He told me I'm a copy

When I'd hear him mock me, that's almost stopped me

Well we're surrounded, and we're hounded

There's no above or a secret door

What are we here for

If not to run straight through all our tormentors?

But until that time I'll try and sing this...

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

What they throw at me's too slow

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost

I'll morph to someone else

Defense mechanism mode

I'll morph to someone else

Lights they blink to me, transmitting things to me

Ones and zeroes, ergo this symphony

Anybody listening? Ones and zeroes

Count to infinity, ones and zeroes

I'm surrounded, and I'm hounded

There's no 'above, ' or 'under, ' or 'around' it

For 'above' is blind belief, and 'under' is sword to sleeve

And 'around' is scientific miracle, let's pick 'above' and see

For if and when we go 'above, ' the question still remains:

Are we still in love, and is it possible we feel the same?

And that's when going 'under' starts to take my wonder

But until that time...

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

What they throw at me's too slow

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost

I'll morph to someone else

Defense mechanism mode

I'll morph to someone else

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

Defense mechanism mode

I'll morph to someone else

Not done, not done, not done

Out of Context Lines: Levitate (Pt. 51)

Congrats to erazedcitizen for the last one!

Here’s Levitate:

Oh, I know how to levitate up off my feet

And ever since the seventh grade I learned to fire-breathe

And though I feed on things that fell

You can learn to levitate with just a little help

Learn to levitate with just a little help

Come down, come down

Cowards only come through when the hour's late

And everyone's asleep, mind you

Now show up, show up

I know I shouldn't say this

But a curse from you is all that I would need right now, man

Come down, come down

Cowards only come through when the hour's late

And everyone's asleep, mind you

Now show up, show up

I know I shouldn't say this

But a curse from you is all that I would need right now, man

Danger in the fabric of this thing I made

I probably shouldn't show you, but it's way too late

My heart is with you hiding, but my mind's not made

Now they know it like we both knew for some time I'd say

They're smirking at first blood, they're circling above

But this is not enough

Yeah, this is not what you thought

No, no we are not just graffiti on a passing train

I got back what I once bought back

In that slot I won't need to replace

This culture is a poacher of overexposure, not today

Don't feed me to the vultures

I am a vulture who feeds on pain

Sleep in a well-lit room, don't let the shadow through

And sever all I knew, yeah, sever all

I thought I could depend on my weekends

On the freezing ground that I'm sleeping on

Please, keep me from, please, keep me

Down from the ledges

Better test it, wooden wedges under doorways

Keep your wooden wedges under doors

Chorus, verse, chorus, verse

Now here comes the eight

Wait, habits here too, you're the worst

Your structure compensates

But compensation feels a lot like rising up to dominate by track two

At least they all know all they hear comes from a place

Oh, I know how to levitate up off my feet

And ever since the seventh grade I learned to fire-breathe

And though I feed on things that fell

You can learn to levitate with just a little help

You can levitate with just a little help
