[sev statik] well, if my name wasn't sev, i wouldn't know the cost of perfection but i recall i was called to just give out these messages wetting kids with semi-automatic pen weapons send them back to the lab second-guessing or thinking on mathematical equations, questions get asked, should they pursue pen and pad infection with no cure? i'm ill but pure, fulfill prescriptions the point man is in, lessons served up for mental treatment

[listener] yeah when you get up today to find me not around your place crying realising the events of days past years creeping by and the minutes are forever deep impressing depressing into your heart asking the whys and hows contimplating the start of your end remembering late nights with friends breath grasping for the sides reaching for a platue that spins not i'm so sorry i would not have meant to go but i hope you know that through all the sorrow and hurt that im better i know it sucks to hear how all yall are better ill try the hardest while im alive to get the most done it doesnt make any sense though when death takes you for a run its hard to keep the memory of me locked deep into your arteries part of the leak just can't believe through all the acomplishments and memories that none of it matters the world keeps going life keeps showing how minute it is in the grand scheme of this so when tomorrow comes and you have to wake without me just make sure its the life of me that you miss

[manchild] i back-slap my clock in the face at the same moment pull seconds from the trash heap cause i got no time to waste chase the sunrise i yell franticly as my tounge ties argue that this day may start without me just might be unwise lungs try to take in oxygen i draw drops in astonishment heart breaks time quakes like kurt vonnegut wisdom of solomon drips my split lip like collagen romancin the stone cold faces of death like harlequin so i stitch my time with silver threads and golden needles enjoy the cold and evil and consider my life is hopeless i focus on the process regardless of the outcome cause thats the only copy of sintax's solo album these are the same hands i used to stroke his soul and grabbed a city by the throat but didnt have the strength to hold it if im ancient by tomorrow just step to the other side and leave the fans in the capable hands of deepspace5
[playdough] sixteen pads for the drum that's where im from wondering how ive become so accustom to the shoulder with the chip a soul with the fat lip my spirits being smacked character still atacked the fact still remains they chose to not use cause mic sparks permenent marks and tattoos they act fools with rules of no castings clearly its pierced my soul the biggest hole is in my heart i'm wishing that tomorrow would start without me maybe then they'd see this emcee plays more of a solution to polution than you but the truth is being masked with dont tell or ask about hurts and lies from shirts and ties because it heavily relies on me wearing disguise is just through reach the lost is placing my arms across my chest lay my body to rest and say goodbye
