about

This track was originally recorded as part of the Soul Music for the Soulless sessions but did not make the cut. Instead we are offering it as an exclusive free download with our friends at thewitzard.com

lyrics

I wish I believed there was more than this
But the evidence I sees completely free of your moral grift
economy for suckers I see systems I see structures
But nothing that suggests any karma or repercussions

No higher purpose just the lies they tell to try and work us
Train us like a circus fry our circuits when their lie emerges
Virgins giving birth seems to me like middle earth
A fancy prism of escapism a fantasy or little worth

It's why they teach Eden and Adam and Eve leaving
The most important lesson's not to question their reason
Don't question their Mohammad or their Talmud or their Jesus
Or John Smith or atheists with their lack of believing

nobody knows a fucking thing
All this blind faith seems to create is fucking suffering
And that's all that I'm certain of that's been my assertion cuz
Build destroy repeat until we're feasted on by worms and bugs

We all crave the big ending rapture or apocalypse
Nuclear Armageddon or Hale bop and a rocket ship
Yo--It's a weird coping mechanism
If we're here to see the end I guess there's nothing that we're missing

Fade to black role the credits maybe even go to heaven
No pain no Excedrin guess that's why we grow dependent
Opiate of masses is a sickness called addition
But once scratch the surface it's just poorly written fiction

Opiate of masses is a sickness called addition
But once scratch the surface it's just poorly written fiction
Opiate of masses is a sickness called addition
But once scratch the surface it's just poorly written fiction

So I take time looking back (and off into the distance)
So I take time looking back (and off into the distance)
So I take time looking back (and off into the distance)
So I take time looking back I take time looking back

So I take time looking back (and off into the distance)
So I take time looking back (and off into the distance)
So I take time looking back (and off into the distance)
So I take time looking back I take time looking back

Brilliant hip-hop for the fans of boom bap. It also has a slightly more experimental side, but remains super cohesive altogether. The flows of the MCs are masterfully complementing excellent production. This is a great album. Thibaut Devigne
