The second track on their 2017 album, Renaissance, “Eyes Wide Open” addresses themes such as: overcoming self-doubt, existing alongside nay-sayers, and the power of expression.
[Verse 1: Solace]
Born inside the jungle, you can hear it in my sound
Fitting to storm the gate and taking the game from mumble-clowns
The second coming of Christ without the nails or thorny crown
To bring you that funky shit, that New York gritty in my style
I'm the sergeant to the Indigo brigade
I'm Picasso with the pen, I paint pictures with what I say
Makin' a masterpiece, so glad to see we gettin' it for fame
Never an actor, I ain't plastic, just separate me away
From the catastrophes and casualties filling up in the game
Losing they sanity, the fantasies filling up in they brains (haha)
I ain't a slave to the TV nonsense
I'm a rocket, I choose to soar back into a human noggin
Keep on plottin' to build the knowledge you can't find in the colleges
My dreams, accomplish 'em, now I'm spreading light like the sun, it's lit
The soul the power garden, the human race ain't from sufferin'
Like photosynthesis, feed the plants, I'm giving the love to kids
My mental cognitive, unite hemispheres in my consciousness
These niggas chasin' musical gold, but I'm chasin' monuments
You never catch me out with these niggas, I'm on some other shit
To move the masses and keep on churnin' to make my butter flip
I'm overconfident, still from products, don't get your helmet split
I move the continents, makin' niggas switch up to common sense
My holy covenant keep me guarded, I'm the colossolace
I'm making copper flip with these bars, I'm like an alchemist
[Chorus: Solace]
Nigga watch your back, they be plottin', come and slam on ya
Old mans will clap at ya, same niggas get after ya
Assassinate your character, that's why we focus on stackin' up
I'm limpin' with my savages, we kick back blowin' cannabis
Nigga watch your back, they be plottin', come and slam on ya
Old mans will clap at ya, same niggas get after ya
Assassinate your character, that's why we focus on stackin' up
I'm limpin' with my savages, we kick back blowin' cannabis
[Verse 2: AKTHESAVIOR]
Hip-hop apocalyptic if 2Pac was livin'
Keep my lock a distance, strictly business, ain’t no politicin’
With these cowards spittin' cowabunga steal your way they snitchin’
But the way I pitch it copywrittin', get a proper whippin’, uh
Whippin’ past laughin’ like a Whip-It, I’m a maniac
Get it independent, disbandin' fizzin' it’s worth a chance
But niggas don’t deserve the chance, they actors just like Vince McMahon
Separate ring they try to shake my hand get that Mayweather jab
Back and forth, niggas claim they lost but all they verses forged
Fuckin’ frauds, scared to put in work like it was fuckin’ chores
Spit that venom, rip through cartilage
New age full of Peter Parkers
Soul asleep we need the progress
So beneath is where I started
Where we parted, my thoughts escape to places uncharted
This ain’t a race but I’m a tourist, patience still on course
These here inflated pawns lukewarm, I bring the torch
Coupons won’t cut the cost, like you gone, another corpse
They feel the force and dead the noise be the resource
I bend and twist the spoon
And fuck, no man exist that go this hard
Make a list, I murk em’ all
Shorty bad but she ain’t smart
But her head like Lil Duval
Bud and bread is over all
Some my niggas in attendance
Some my niggas in the morgue
And some niggas facin’ sentence and I do this shit for ya’ll
Most of all for my moms and her dream to see me ball
Though some teammates might mislead you the procedure is to score, uh
[Chorus: Solace]
Nigga watch your back, they be plottin', come and slam on ya
Old mans will clap at ya, same niggas get after ya
Assassinate your character, that's why we focus on stackin' up
I'm limpin' with my savages, we kick back blowin' cannabis
Nigga watch your back, they be plottin', come and slam on ya
Old mans will clap at ya, same niggas get after ya
Assassinate your character, that's why we focus on stackin' up
I'm limpin' with my savages, we kick back blowin' cannabis
