Mxlplx / Stefan Burnett’s verses (3)

1. Tank is Dry
California, outta my way / I'm bout to show ya how to sway / Side to side, down all day / Who's down to ride? / Shout "okay", put yo ticket in the sky / Once I rip it, you can slide / Through the door and out the back / Cool it before they shout "attack" / Cop a squat and hit the tap / I got the knot, gimme dap / If you wanna rock this block like that / Shot the lock, pop the blimp / Walk the talk with the limp / Out of orbit, hard to breathe / Bout to vomit on ya sleeve / Corner pocket and watch us leave

2. Dangerous Feelings
This one's for the freaks / Who get fucked up seven days a week / Nut up and try not to speak / While I touch the mic with all this heat / Up all night riding beats / Used to down crazy horse and walk thе streets / With no remorse, can't feel my feet / Smoking shorts like fat pеople eat / Obsessive compulsive / They trip up, possessed by the coldness / They quiver but I try not to notice / Deliver me a motive and I'll do it for no reason / Blew it back like the season / You can't patch where I need one / I'll hit you back if I see some

3. On My Own
To the moon in a flash / Full bloom and born to mash / Ain't shit new, this war will last til we're through / After we're past, killing you like stacks of cash feeling blue / I can't laugh, what's the deal? / Where they at, what's it feel like to make it back? / Cut this and peel way out the black / Cutlass rider counting down / Touch this fire, bow to this crown / Screwface rider bound to clown every two face liar in my zone / Way too tired to drive you home / Can't believe that I'm on my own

Without fear, pimps crouch near blazing suns sprang / One too many clues spinning blues / Tinting viewpoints through joints magnified, wicked after wise / Lifted cactus dry / Dim lit answers, intentions transferred when questions fade slowly / They hold me suspended, floating up fences, exposing them senses / Then show me what death is, squared / Never on, care stretch beyond their limits, we're finished / Automatic man screams fire / Cock back, click, and retire

4. 50 on It
I travel down castles brown as chocolate / The walls are stony as chronic / Lonely alcoholics like to come with me / Most of my friends got 50 on it / "Hit me up if you want it", love when they say that / Hate when they hang back / Blank faced lazy riders blazing dank sacks / 10 to 5:00 in the morning, you can't take jack / Shit, these are stories from way back / Deja vu in my head pressing playback / Take two to the head and say "FUCK THAT!"

5. Purposeful Insanity
Bloody medallion round my neck / Running like a stallion out of breath / Under a billion pounds of death / Become a chameleon down to bless / Every one of the children / Shouting "yes", translate heartbeats / Count my steps, await starving / In the boundless depths / Awake in the dark, we cower then forget / What makes this art we call power, correct? / Start from scratch again and swear / To march till pass out in thin air / This apartment blacks out all my cares, surfacing slow / Fighting gravity, emerging so / High insanity seems purposeful / Never imagined it would hurt me though

6. Mary Jane's Urn
Hard rock stars cock back so far / Everything gets shot from here to Mars / Aliens caught up bleeding like scars / So strange it's hot, melting the bars / They locked us behind, with guitars / Knocked up like felines in big cars / Spread out on recline growing large / Head's bout to find loneliness bizarre / Let's count to 69 and then close off / Wide open minds like doors ajar / Blinking lights make nights seem bright despite the dark / Thinking "I'll take flight" when the fight they start / Tries to make me sacrifice life's sacred art

Headaches, back pains, dead weight, can't change / Boredom, poverty / Your love for property / Cordless shackles, oars without paddles / Hanging from trees, praying for sunny / Days while your money / Fades like the lovely / Face you once had, takes you from bad to worse / Feel lower than a hearse in colder weather than December / So confused, you can't remember

7. Streets of Satire
There's nowhere left to run, staring at the Sun / Can't believe what I've become / Past the point of no return / I don't enjoy letting myself burn, but there's nothing / Else to do, tired of bluffing / I know it's true, the truth is ugly / Confusion's blue, I don't love me / I don't love you, can't afford anything on life's menu / Consumed by pain, left to down and singing blues in the rain / Can't get out of the caboose of this train / Feel like I'm bout to blow out my brain any day now / The end is near, have no idea how / I ended up here with nowhere else to go / When I used to wonder how it felt to know / On the under, my life's a show

8. Raise the Cavalry
I'm one of those people who never belonged / Don't know the difference between evil and good cause I'm too strong / To take sides in a game that makes my eyes trick my brain / Hoping that when they rise out of this insane experience we deal with / On a daily basis men deal with the real trip, this is no oasis / Everything I feel hits my heart, then erases what I thought to be concrete / Have lived in many places but I still don’t feel complete / Don’t think I ever will, standing on my feet at the top of this hill / Wondering when I'll meet the incident that's bout to kill my body and steal my soul / Like a pickpocket slips away so fast / You don't realize your wallet ever left your ass

9. Pandemonium Peace
Thought it'd be uplifting to have you in my life / Got so caught up in wishing I lost track of the light / Wanted someone to give me a crack at one slice / Hooked the pipe, favor splitting with this crappy device / I've always hated living but I must say it's nice / To be able to sit pretty in a fool's paradise / Faze me with confetti, shoot me where I can splice / Negative to positive, forget my cares to the dice roll / Able-bodied mystic's flick to flare our advice / You can hang in the sky like clouds of Fyre / You can claim what them fly high round the tire / Swinging to the levy, below the undertow thinking, "damn, it's too heavy" / People just don't know

10. Breathy Deceit
Under the bridge, over the water / Cutting my lips, soaking like collars / Buttons flying, magic dollars / Wants them crying, manics holler / Touch this frightening, no don't bother / When one hit bites me, I know it's hotter than hot enough / Older than your father, locked up and knocked up / Cock what you want, but / Shots will fly if you drop the wrong one / In my lots of octopus with clear white eyes / If all you got is a beer, why try? / Above the block, feeling like I'm high

Flagpole drags roll out on flip off, the street about to trip / Want the heat to split me open / Hit me, I'm frozen / Kiss me, I'm closing / Doors on gypsies floating above floors / Tipsy off what you're giving up on / Come on, everything but destiny is in my way / Let it be til I say "ok"

11. Dark Weight
Old man slow jam's cold as no man's / Golden hold land, open doors slam shut beforehand / Touch the shore sand, sucker mores glands / Covered, your plans another born damned to hover / Above the clutter we shove off to see clearings / Got to be hearing, cautiously nearing / The hottest heat fearing, melt the street / But its maker on the peak of skyscrapers watching streets / Lightning's vapors block my speech like erasers caught in between / I'm the equator, lost but it seems / Lifetimes safer to not mean any of my behavior

Disrespecting mind disconnecting time, letting it shine / Forgetting which sign led me this grinds around corners / Down boredom lines out of order / Blinds emotional chimes floating behind notions we find / Copacetic divine souls beheaded / Ozone levels sweated by old rebels / Medics try so hard to shed this star diagnosis / Marked by hypnosis, backwards slow / And if they know, they know this passes blow

12. Kill the Difference
Lately paid bills kills my joy like koi / Feelings seal me up in dungeons of pain / The rain is falling, it's calling my name / While stains cover my teeth like butter / I reach my lover's right peak / But run back down cus what trap sound / It makes it cool, can't take the rules / Man breaks the fool's heart width / Fueled by darkness, you will cry part with your ego artist / But we both know which love holds your pitch / Low enough to drift / Cold as rough blue rifts flow through unknown licks / I'll show you a poet so out of focus / Doubt don't get noticed outside the circle / Inside the hopeless down by that purple seaside of dullness

What equals happiness? / Love and peace, or craftiness? / This life has captured us / Daylight til after dusk / My sight is what I trust / Why fight what you can't touch? / Blinded by, a fool's lust / Riding until you bust / Hiding from the truce of us / Dying just for the rush / Rising in your flying bus / So high, you start to blush inside the heart of luxe / Trying hard not to crush what I feel is a must / Add a minus, subtract a plus / And you'll find us fast enough

13. Relaxed
Isolation is my station / Always on the bringing hallways of creation / Gone on vacation, beyond freedom facing / Dawn's freedom training belong street racing / Be here coach, chasing people with taste in / Their ears I'm making them hear while shaking / They feel like waste tends to re-amaze them / Blew years of blazing high trails that take men like sails / Down lakes when everything's blowing in destinies / Showing your blessings upstream, undressing to mean / Finding has been reclining to friends / Design me a blind to rhyme in gems / I'd like to see where your mind has been

Got lost in dreams, thoughts and sunbeams / Unlock the scenes and watch me scream out, fake / Serene clouds take my mind down straight fine lines / Bout faint high times can break my binds / Tempt tased to find good ways to rhyme / Should they choose blind fate then feel me? / Shake damn feelings off with rhythm / All this living I've missed to give them my simple vision / Should pay me back enough to stay relaxed

14. Betrayal
The mood of the day dictates what I do and say / It takes love I knew is gray and makes it a blue sky / I pray the day you die will be a peaceful ride / Kill me, and I'll be beside you to guide your eyes / I'll help you rise so how the hell you tried to fly away from all your life? / Will fade like shorted lights flicker into blackness / Gone so fast, you won't remember your last address / Or exactly where you lived before I managed / To show you God, I wasn't made for this / Bloody craziness, out of control / Way too tripped out to hold it down / Throwing up on the ground, cold as fuck, can't stop now / Way too deep to call it, losing sleep / My wall is dry like mountain peaks / Why you trying not to sound like you're weak?

15. X-Ray Man
I can never get enough / Try and hold it together, but it's tough / When you change like the weather / I'm on fire and the flame's feeling better / Higher than anything you could measure, x-ray man / Looking through forever, motivate a plan to get me pleasure / Holster on my hip; Moon coming up, there's a showdown brewing / What the fuck, I wanna know what you doing / So sick I'm blue and, but the past don't matter / There's nothing to lose, man I'll deal with it after we do what we do / And decide if we're bankrupt / Get out til we die like some bastards / Hearing suicidal thoughts begin my laughter / Noose around my neck, hanging from the rafter
