about

An epic funky trip hop groove, documenting the plight of the individual, the over inflated ego, and the interpersonal jockeying for social superiority.

lyrics

CHILL

you're so cool through force of will
its giving me a chill
you're so cool you freeze the ice
when you've got that outfit on

girl ya always keep your body tight
with a smile and an extra cigarette to light
ya picking up on all the social cues all the words to use
the outfits to choose … sipping lazy booze
i accuse everyone of falling in lust for the very first time
now even the blind find sight cause you're the sun rise at night

you're so cool through force of will
its giving me a chill
you're so cool you freeze the ice

you grow your frozen garden
but i bring the heat
i beg a million pardons
on infinite repeat

i don't think twice I'm gonna ice you from my train of thought
i love you not i love you not take back what you brought
cause heavy metals don't convey the pain
a tattoo of her name on the centre my brain
like a tick i had to pry it out
to my benefit to separate beyond all doubt
she's a pyro with a pyrotechnic
we had a good thing but she wrecked it

so now i swept up the last remaining fragments of
my love … cause when push comes to shove
she wasn't up for faking it she wasn't up for taking it
stick and move punch stick and move shake 'n baken it
shit i remember all the things ya did ta me
making me the kinda man id wanna be
wasn't meant ta be my soul inside just isn't pure
i suffer this fatality without a cure
and though this disaster got me down theres no mistaking
something deep inside was always saying music needs making
dropping rhymes its like a curse
the einstein of the verse

you grow your frozen garden
but i bring the heat
i beg a million pardons
on infinite repeat

ya god musta sent me down here as your sign
so listen up mother fuckers all cuz nows the time
i line em up to suck me off
the one and only playa boss
when i rap ya hear the millions fold
i say dance you do as ya told
i got a clip for your pile of ones
ya little sound clips are never done but

you're so cool through force of will
its giving me a chill
you're so cool you freeze the ice
when you've got that outfit on

now I'm crying trying' to hurt her lyrically
the maths metric she counts empirically
nothing left from what occurred
no memory or written word
work at it for years but something always fucking stops ya
meanwhile ill write another fucking opera
ya cut and paste record the hundred millionth fucking take
hoping for the genius that i masturbate

you grow your frozen garden
but i bring the heat
i beg a million pardons
on infinite repeat
you grow your frozen garden
but i bring the heat
i beg a million pardons
on infinite repeat
you grow your frozen garden
but i bring the heat
i beg a million pardons
on infinite repeat
