Beneath The Surface
Lyricist:Graham Donald Harvey, Jean Paul Maunick
On a man-made lake, there's a sheet of thin ice Where unskilled skaters couldn't figure-eight twice At sixteen, uncut, direct from the cult Head-on assault, the result, death by the bolt
In a vote, it spoke about the average loss commission That was seen by a king in a prophetic vision Like a plane crash from a bomb blast Special broadcast, slot time with con cash
It kept the jury quiet and now a riot will form While satanic man now hang in his dorm I swing on you fake radio personalities Boost ya ratings, but hypes behind casualties
Fire shots for low-pressure water gun play Instantly, slap ya fire like it's Palm Sunday I fashioned the first tool from the elements The earth used and built it to a complex
Network of communications, you're up against a hopeless situation Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I screen every vehicle through enemy observation Swarmin' unpredictably, we spread terror Increase the force significantly, change the error
Check my wind pattern, it's headin' west Success is freedom, failure could mean death Humans sweat, aim shovels Dig up debris and rubble
Permanent, damage caused by the double You, now who, callously Urge you to merge through And think the workers'll serve you
Signin' Marvel who just dropped the next novel Worldwide, practically marred in marble It's accountless, amount of MC's I saved And those same niggas wanna squander those gifts I gave
Scratch underneath the surface, where does your purpose lie? It seems our world is worthless like we're pawns beneath the sky [Incomprehensible]by reason and ash is just the wind The left is so our, we're breathin', keep ourself from givin' in
Love and hatred, home is most sacred Both species, they lay naked in the tombs of oasis Think back on niggas I ate with, spent the day with Guns we played with, niggas I relate with
We broke bread, I heard through a vine niggas workin' for the Feds Sent out secretly to take my head I lay back and meditate to the words they say Skip town for a mutten, goofy dread
Had a friend tell my family I was dead Return at the last fall of the autumn leaves Operate the plan accordingly, in case the Feds are recordin' me Sign all documents usin' forgery 'cuz just a mere thought of me
I'm like Solomon, spoke bluntly Told the word I'm black and calmly Howls from the grave haunt me The smell of death's upon me, I dwell in the hills like Gandhi
Been in the presence of mad peasants and old kings Who sold everything on a quest for God's divine Slept in caves to get a clear mind Who prayed three times, when the moon lit and when the sun rise
I met dwellers in the desert, talked to shepherds Been in the mouth of many leopards Felt the death kiss of Satan's mistress Walked the vacant districts for four religions, studied Pagan scriptures
True philosophers and physicians on a cure missions Who harden their hearts to ward the weak, sick and afflicted Candles lit, gamble with a bitch Who made me love her, when I touch her, soft 'cause hide claws
Bees with sweet honey in they mouth Have bitter stingers at they tail Walk through the chambers of death, take a hold on to hell Embracin' her was like embracin' the Third World
Scratch underneath the surface, where does your purpose lie? It seems our world is worthless like we're pawns beneath the sky [Incomprehensible]by reason and ash is just the wind The left is so our, we're breathin', keep ourself from givin' in Scratch underneath the surface
