Dub-L - The Substance lyrics

Four rooms, a ceiling and a floor but there's more: (close to insanity) A desk with a subtle light, a window, and a door; (close to insanity) One bottle of the bluest inks your iris ever saw; (close to insanity) One child prodigy with a vision in his core (close to insanity) [Verse I] (yeah, yo) I'm frost bitten, slippin' away in titanic burden nurses Where the anti-hero clergy purge their value burning service And warped was I, huddled beneath the influence of fresh Meshed with impressions that appear to shrink before my very breath. (Breath) These tides of woe and malice and mirth initiate a wave crash Splashing my offspring graves prior to birth, it's looking bleak Malarky farce sergeant crooked and sleek emerald eyes glow; I'm shook in a freak side show! OK, I strobe effects projective when I blink So I design this chorus line When linked we let our eyelids fall and pilots stall With what I sing, I'll open lash light and dark clash to dim the wattage Then see the wide-eyed dry grays, and supplied fiery Colossus Well, I am a hostage. Guiding, yet, pushed beneath the craze's climate Hiding behind the levy while the stubborn rivers rise and feel this I wish heavenly brevity centered hate pedigrees instead of dead serenity God damn. Must have remembered me It clinched me, it wrenched me, tempted me to employ it Apprehended me, and rendered me suspended in its voyage How these tables have turned! Hand to the bottle with the skull and crossbones scribbled off the label Sip the ladle. Drank the burn. Begging for dead! Concerns off with a zephyr tread and leg in a web Caught triple-six couriers; beckon, they fled OK, OK, I get it... Let 'em shake a little, then release 'em Like, as if ghostly hysterics would leech on band aid completion Odium, patience ran his anti-d**h commando Just a litigant stretchin' to touch tranquil But couldn't quite catch the angle I'm trained as cornerstone famine trooper So my tray within a heart of hearts still belly up and parched, come on... (yeah, yeah, check it) I'm a sideline observer alerted not yet retreating (close to insanity) The climate stubbornly hovered slightly above freezing (close to insanity) Now everybody in the populace awaited my reply: (close to insanity) I spit a billion tiny brilliant white lights into the sky (close to insanity) [Verse II-IV] Undeniably amused by the way the fuse burn By the way the clues churn in front of my eyes... To fertilize germination of concern for me, for we For he who's s**ed into the trench, fully dug I don't wanna pull the plug... Hug on my canteen like in a dream Centipede leader speedin' through a meaty greed league I can tell by the way the needs bleed from a seed If the breed should have ever been bred. 'Nuff said... Whether compared to caterpillar and cocoon To emerge, or a spark's soon to bloom to a surge All I need is the nourishment, the courage and the burn To ascend from a number, to brave Blade Runner Hunter, cleric, swordsman, king... More like I'm walking with a broken mood ring Mood swingin' from the mezzanine level Here to bevel the edge My team's settled on the ledge to pledge It's like that In the summer it rains buckets of hunger pains In the winter it's the same, with an added climate change The remaining two quadrants balance the polar values equally for mid-range Yet the songs of thirst remain the same You could turn the whole cold reservoir to liquor Hell, split the ocean on its seams if it boosts your esteem I never lend span of attention lest my brethren signal fresh So do your magic, miracle worker, or I'll remain unimpressed For the flux, the fix, the famine For the fact that little Billy up the block obtained a lovely hand cannon I'd examined auto-pilot (right) when filibuster won... (yeah) Concluded the few we're tuned with were now targets of his movement... (oh sh**) It's intriguing. Yet, I guess, I knew somewhere, something was leaking Now I honor instinct, delinquent Bring settler runaways, frayed boogie ba*tard clicks To bypa** gla** stature, walking graft characters... Militant dance split the sun and sip the filament... Tracer. Vivisection is to lab rat primes; They try to grace these sacred lips with his maze or a dirty wine He knew. He brewed the substance just to mock the lesser budgets Then sought off all trickery, bought off the public, and screamed victory! Tunnel through the mite infested grillage and the rig As fast as Aesop and his ten little fatigued fingers could dig Trigger revenge, tip the goblet in the dirt, review my words Spit in the puddle. Peace to fame, struggle the f** out, and duck out (yeah, check, huh, uh) Now, all hail defenders of the trash talk (close to insanity) I was hidden, yet I slid in just to rip the mask off (close to insanity) I'm seventy-six inches of all the purest sounds (close to insanity) So y'all could dig me six feet deep my eyes would still be over ground! (close to insanity) (It's like that)
