Mr. Lif
Iron Helix by Mr.Lif describes two entities, the first (Insight) being the primitive, simple man living off the earth and loving it as a whole. The second (Lif) is the entity of man made technology and civilization, taking the earth and sucking out what it can, while polluting the idea of loving the...
[Scratches]
"Drop it"
[Insight]
The sun has risen
As it glistens
Through the trees like a prism
I listen to the earth's rhythm
The wind speaks to my instinct
With the earth I'm in sync
Sharpening the blade of a spade
With the heart of a lion in combat
Though I'm real slick
The salt in the water help my scars heal quick
'Cause see, I mastered survival tactics
And lasted weeks without sleep
Hunting for prey in white rapids
[Mr. Lif] Rather primitive
[Insight] Who's that?
[Mr. Lif] I'm stats, DAT's, money stacks, tax
[Insight] Which language is that?
[Mr. Lif] Modernity with a little tyranny
[Insight] But I don't need chaos, I have peace and serenity
[Mr. Lif] You won't find hell in me
See psychoanalysts for therapy
Come prosper and live plentily
[Insight] My existence is heavenly
[Mr. Lif] You were meant to be greater
[Insight] Allow me to pray to my creator
[Mr. Lif] Nigga, you are the maker
Life-giver and taker
Take control, you should feel safer
[Insight] But I don't even feel threatened
[Mr. Lif] You need weapons
And apparently a classroom so you can learn lessons
[Scratches]
"Don't let them fool ya, I'm here to school ya"
"You need knowledge"
"Open your eyes"
[Insight] You're terminal and senseless
[Mr. Lif] I'm rational and actual
Here, let me send a fax to you
[Insight] But what is a fax?
[Mr. Lif]
Ah, curiosity killed the cat-ch this
Swimming pool and mattress
Plus a book of matches
Credit cards and debit cards
[Insight]
Checks, cars, incredible odds, devil gods
Laws, federal generals headed for Mars
With medical cards
Fixing mother nature's technical flaws
[Mr. Lif]
See, you learn quickly
Now you're with me
Move forward and never look back at history
Focus on your omnipotence
Teach your infants this
Kiss the barcode on your wrist
[Insight] All six senses are on point
[Mr. Lif] Telekinetics?
[Insight]
Nah, I didn't forget it
Utilizing earth
I can mold dirt into flesh
Summoning sandstorms
On the highest mountain I'll stand on
I'll make the skies cry fire rock
Then ice will drop
As winds spin
Your spirit and soul ascends then
[Mr. Lif]
Now you can blend in
Let's hit the city streets
So we can get your feet accustomed to concrete
Build a strong fleet of soldiers
Tell 'em what I told ya
We'll chill on the moon when we're older
And thank God that this earth life is over
Devour the sun and make the universe colder
[Insight]
Extol the master
Spinning planets around my aura
Like an orbit
Set a mountain on a shore, twist my fingers
And force mist into a tornado
Raw fatal
I make rain flow
Draining clouds into a rainbow
I master math
Infused bionics with biology
Police carry shotguns inside a robotic knee
The impact of my psychology can atomically wipe out
And devastate as soon as I meditate
[Mr. Lif] So why don't you demonstrate?
[Insight] I think that I might
Drop a bomb on Nagasaki just because it's in sight
[Mr. Lif] You've arrived
[Insight] Leave the world
[Mr. Lif] Brutalized
[Insight] Sacrifice
[Mr. Lif] Human lives
[Insight] Take flight
[Mr. Lif] To fight
[Insight and Mr. Lif] Attack tribes
[Mr. Lif] This will be the legacy of you and I
[Insight] Who's you?
[Insight and Mr. Lif] It's just I
All opposition must die
