[Joker dialogue from The Dark Knight]
"They're schemers. Schemers trying to control their little worlds
I'm not a schemer. I try to show the schemers how pathetic their attempts
To control things really are
See their morals, their code, it's a bad joke."
[Verse 1: Isaiah $wa*k]
I remember days when I was smiling'
Wasn't relying' then on xanax and them vicodins
Never thought I'd resort my life to this violence
So instead I use this mic like it's a violin
These lyrics flow right out of me just like my wrists were slit
We all just victims in this country of imprisonment
Citizens of a universe ran by pyramids
Trapped in a big abyss, we don't know what true living' is
Walkin' tidals 12 disciples never met their idols
Though my eye dull I can still see far beyond this cycle
Life's a scratching' vinyl, might as well throw out the bible
47 rifles in trial all fighting' for survival
Lyrics metaphysical, made of abysmal syllables
Scriptural phrases all over these walls are too illiberal
This message is subliminal
Substance is reciprocals, bein' pushed by these imbeciles
And what's crazy is they fall for it
Zombies in the church fallin' for all these fake prophecies
Peace offerings ran by these fake conglomerates
Money laundering is the root of this main economy
The pain will never leave
Instead of heat I'm letting' peace flow through enemies
Mirtazapine every night so I can get some sleep
The rest of me is now resting so I can rest in peace
Pa**ive aggressive, the past is so impressive
Brain dead citizens can't even grab attention
Daydreaming on these late nights
And I'm tryin' to go to battle with delayed knights
If you're not living a dream, then what are you living?
It's not life, life is supposed to be great
I feel like we're only unhappy because the world made us unhappy
Not because we're unhappy people, and I think you know that too
[Verse 2: Purpose432]
I remember back in the day when I would have fun
Yeah, back in the day I didn't have to roll one
But now we're in a time, where love is a crime
Indignity is ignorance, lost and divine
And our baby worried now but it's gonna be fine
When i tell myself that, am I telling a lie?
Am I speaking the truth, or am I saying it
Just to get by, just to get by
And yeah I love that girl, the type of love that felt like I had the world
Fall in love too quickly, that's usually my problem
But Imma solve 'em. Before I'm drowning under whiskey
Better find it fast, better find it quickly. That's what I keep telling myself
I'm like Kid Cudi running' through the city
I think of first, then finish last. Overconfidence got people throwing' shade
Pa**ed the first impression way too fast, darkness covers my heart
To you, that's no possession, then she gets mad when you keep it real
But if it's fake, it's even worse
I can't win this game, so I put it in a verse
I let you know that, but what I don't know is what I really want
I know I owe myself to the man up above
But what I want, is it called love?
Or does love not exist, is it bliss compared to these late nights
If not i'm going straight to war with delayed knights
