I'm like a dead man walking shackled from head to toe/
whats said when the mans talking baffled who's next flow/
complex but slow, i turn highly unattainable/
make use when I'm unstrained rhyming until my page is full/
iv poisoned the earth, spiked the fountain of youth/
hours consumed in the booth i never found an excuse/
now a smart ass is tryna tell me nothing rhymes with purple/
every rhyme that's internal could burn a line through your journal/
conceded, who could i turn to, had to stop the threats/
since you regretted getting no regrets tatted on your neck/
so check, then snatched the fucken food chain/
awoken snorlax with these raps, like he just heard my flute playing/
like a periodic chart, the letters appear to him/
evident that medicine-sediments flow better than helium/
so put the CD in, straight from the pen to the page/
aint taking shit for granted since i fell on a stage/
Don't think they'll ever find me I'm deep in the underground
hear me banging from the sewer when you sleep i run around/
the sun is down when I'm out, and I don't think its coming back
so when you listen to my raps see what i bring upon a track
Don't think they'll ever find me I'm deep in the underground
hear me banging from the sewer when you sleep i run around/
the sun is down when I'm out, and I don't think its coming back
so when you listen to my raps see what i bring upon a track
fuck showing up to contest I'm blowing up like bomb threats/
on edge and I'm stressed so do exactly what the song says/
dropped when i was born, and my skull broke at birth/
soaked in turps, pray for sleep so i can cope at work/
compose verse, closed curtains and ask other serpents/
the snake slimes reviled, when the grass cutters burnt it/
wordsmiths addiction sink, than I rap again/
that's why i start to question every fucking thing that's happening/
turn this shit up louder till your fucken ceilings shook/
no appealing hooks my lyrics printed in children's books/
simply put, I'm tired and my eyes are projected/
sinus affected while doing lines of asbestos/
rhyme a whole sentence, without looking back an forth/
rap like crack withdraw beats so heavy it crack the floor/
smash the door open at dinner and run up in your house/
cracked a case in your living room an sat up on the couch/
nah they'll ever find me I'm deep in the underground
hear me banging from the sewer when you sleep i run around/
the sun is down when I'm out, and I don't think its coming back
so when you listen to my raps see what i bring upon a track
nah they'll ever find me I'm deep in the underground
hear me banging from the sewer when you sleep i run around/
the sun is down when I'm out, and I don't think its coming back
so when you listen to my raps see what i bring upon a track
see how quickly it swept in, this suddle fog in like eighty bars/
rob the bottle shop and smuggle grog in a graveyard/
i slave hard this rhyme, never sympathetic/
not a schizophrenic but when i see my silhouette I panic/
pillows wet when it splattered, aint familiar with my wordplay/
kill you on the track, like a grenade in the birds cage/
im deep in the sewers where the Colombian kids live/
hunted by death squads, stuck on the governments hit list/
and since this, I quit asking cunts for forgiveness/
run with these lyrics your hearing, but its non of your business/
see we immune to the dark, there's no need for the sunlight/
we stay shadowed deep down an agree we the subtype/
they know what I'm saying, the echo from the tunnels travel/
under gravel that'll shake, trains make the funnels rattle/
the sun will battle to even fade through the first layer/
so i stay up, how long does it takes to work your way up/
they definitely will ever find me I'm deep in the underground
hear me banging from the sewer when you sleep i run around/
the sun is down when I'm out, and I don't think its coming back
so when you listen to my raps see what i bring upon a track
they definitely will ever find me I'm deep in the underground
hear me banging from the sewer when you sleep i run around/
the sun is down when I'm out, and I don't think its coming back
so when you listen to my raps see what i bring upon a track
