American Poets 2099 - Sharp Splinters lyrics

[Splinter from "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" sample] The path that leads to what we truly desire is long and difficult But only by following that path do we achieve our goal [Holocaust] How a firefighter died battling a suspicious blade The darts that are genius, from the Sun you witness rays We are all the trees in this Forest Zone Watch you go between us in a day I'm the illest, destruction night, with spiked armor You'll get k**ed, in a helmet Like Lancelot, for the pa** wound that will not heal There's nothing alive for ten miles, don't start At keeping your heart, three sharp knives Throws your books off to betray criminal gang members As colorful people who lead exciting lives Electrocardiogram chasing is of one normal heartbeat Twenty two writers imagine the future The criminals urge is supremely calculating sometimes A colony of leafcutter ants can strip a whole tree bare in just one night Barons of the sky, aspects of the dark side You were giving to execution [Pro the Leader] We the best G's of d**h [G-Clef Da Mad Komposa] Sacrifice sleep no need for rest [Pro the Leader] My verses submerge to go more in depth Don't get ahead of yourself, you just my protege Try to defeat me, you'll try until you're old and grey The wild time your mind, wither away Alter state of mind, display the blown away, to a haters dismay Iron fist leave a crater in your face Give up the goods and what you got stored in the briefcase Feel the sonic blasts from my hands like Ultron They made over the wall of the fortress but didn't trip the alarm Silent thieves are violent in the seas A sports athlete, thought he was the sh** until he tore a tendon in his kneef MVP, on top of the world, now he's history Just like that, it can be all gone instantly Remember what bridges you burn, because on your way back down You'll get what you deserve Lessons hard earned, can't regain trust Once it's gone, greatness was thrust upon me [Weapon X] The mainstream is shallow, narrow prophets righteous Get defeated if divided, then raise off the face of the Earth Like previous empires Destructive desires that boil deseases to the heart Force to disembark You best seven scars, worth space you like shot spenders And leave you injured, there's no convincing the ignorant Sever path that is significant as nature, what's in my heart Can't be contained, there's rage in my pages You live in vein until your life's wasted Why on this choir by great things, not the material chasing Regret the days that remain a fret to the brain And cause an upset like witness in the departure of relative Changing negative to positive, the opposite of what you fought Receive the impact without a chorus I force rodents to retreat to the corners The stress left til that self destructive nature, expose themself to danger Came from something strange to go back to being a stranger With a mental that froze a threat to their existance Only til you step back and see what's self inflicted I seen from a distance, you need to be indifferent [Dopestyle] Check it, from the fountain of youth, fire in the mic booth Hot spit, roast MC marshmellow n***as that be shallow, now come and follow Round Sleepy Hollow, below in the gallows Stubborn on the ship, yo, what is this? See, it's a hole, yes, we will sink And see a n***a cry, locked in the brink Below watch your pressure, crushing the ship So what other D, can he withstand Me Sub-Mariner, black Aquaman Man from Atlantis, living in a shady town Underwater, smoking a pound
