***got a beast in me/
Can't be unhungry
Aint believin me/
Then you best run from me
I'm only human till I slip back to the animal
Then it is apparent I'm on animal
Don't think just act like an animal
***

Yall aint see me struggle cause I hide it so well
Prolly see a cool dude but I feel a hot hell
Got a fury in my veins pumpin out a deep well
Blood thicker than wayer but both them things swell
And if you put me under pressure aint no tellin who kill
So save me from myself before I come up out this shell

These pages
In this book
This life
These breaths that I took
These rights these wrongs I overlook
Don't wanna see nobody hang but there's blame on this hook
Got me gotta go bang leave somebody brain cooked

Through these lines I be sinkin
They so stuck up on my color think
how pink is him
Color be the crime old mindstate the prison
beat the rap with the rhythm
And I rise
Beat the rap with the rhythm and I rise

I aint totally bent and I'm in good shape
Can't be totally spent flow at an infinite rate
Try to hold it all in to make it ok
Cause if I let a little out it aint gon stop at today
I know the virtues of benevloence but my soul don't say

shit about that when the shit pop off
I just be aimin for the fan lettin the shit fly off

And I obliterate the handle can't take it back
I aint ask for none of this came through this world as Zach
I keep my temper to myself until yall take it off the rack
You think you wanna try it out but there aint no naps
For these stakes where I'm at

It's just good night life
See I aint got no wife
Man I'm married to the rage
And my vows precise
Only so long I abstain
Before this beast come ripe

***got a beast in me/
Can't be unhungry
Aint believin me/
Then you best run from me
I'm only human till I slip back to the animal
Then it is apparent I'm on animal
Don't think just act like an animal***

It's just another cold mornin on the North Coast/
Another day being me in this first row
Seat to the show of incredible potential
Pullin life up outta nothin Im rejectin the stencil
Push it free form
And I aint talkin bout a pencil
or some paints or none of that
Born to a father and mother but I'm son of rap
bright over the morning ball of fire man I'm sunnin rap

aint got big dreams this just a big soul
Aint bout the bullshit you could save that for the pixels
Picture art
take these holograms to school and then I take em apart
Cause I don't shine hard
I emit soft light
You won't find me at the bar drinkin tomorrow's piss tonight
I'm on the dancefloor
Cause I dance more
And I aint sayin it to rhyme it's cause I dance more

More swag than a mile long jellyfish
Bioluminescing fools like what the hell is this
Aint you got no gucci no louie or no prada
Man Bambaata had a grandfather
And you act like everybody wanna spend dollas
On pimped out collars
So when the fate holla
You gettin yoked up
Couldn't deal with being broke now you croaked up
Man you a hustler and all yo money smoked up
Man you a throwback gnagster and them wheels aint spoked up
They asked who's you and you ass aint spoke up
But when you with yo homies man you talkin bout you locced up

In a dark night on a dark sea
I'm out them dark days I'm a bright me
through a prismism find the
Light from the round bend
Spread through the timing
Revealing Roy G Biv
You know what a queen is
Something outdated aw gee whiz
You could leave that to Beaver in the past
Future been up in the present if you see past
All the old bullshit you repeatedly stack
In the midst of the endless expanse of experience
Yesterday's you just blockin the view
Yesterday's you just blockin the view

I paid my dues up front I don't rent I reside
Life is a balance now I'm on the light side

Sayin life is a balance now I'm on the light side

Light side

***got a beast in me/

Then you best run from me
I'm only human till I slip back to the animal
Then it is apparent I'm on animal
Don't think just act like an animal***
