[Intro: Hunter]
Move this shit out of the way
Welcome to the fuckin' terror dome
[Verse 1: Hunter]
Sweet death release me so I can cease to be in this misery
My whole life history's a mystery
Of how I remain to be the same my whole life
Pain to feel pleasure again and my aim is
I'm feelin' the rain on my parade, the charade is
Fizzin' me out like a can of lemonade
And my whole life's played, time out and again
I feel the pressure of famе and give the game away
And I'ma stray from thе path that's paved
From the cradle to the grave like Kylie Minogue and Nick Cave
I'ma stave off death till my very last breath
Will accept the best and nothin' less, regress
Into a mess, depressed, the test, I confess
And digress, you might find these lyrics hard to digest
In my chest, take a step back for an eye test
I accept the contest, the conquest, the wrong step
Clear the club with a bomb threat
Checkin' the mic (One, two, three) Is this thing on yet?
[Refrain: Drapht]
You can feel it in your spirit
Ain't no walls no more, don't fight it
Don't fight it
[Verse 2: Layla]
Sweet death release me, once it teased to appease me
To free me from my broken ruins, felt uneasy
Welcoming tomb, now keen to see it out peacefully
The sequel breeding deep within my womb is healin' me
Think I can feel it, my QI spirit climbing back
Just wanna shield it, cut it slack and reveal it
Finally, been hiding quite some time you see
Writhing in self-hate in a binder file of "Why'd you leave?"
More like "Why'd you never come?" Tend to run dementia struck
Letters hung amongst two bent and severed lungs
In my redemption, tables spun
I heard it sung "Change your mind, engage your tongue"
[Turntablism: Rob Shaker]
"So I'm back again, like I never left"
[Verse 3: Drapht]
Sweet death release me
My dark thoughts running around up on repeat
Won't fast forward just to find the meaning of my life
A dark horse like a steed creature of the night
Tryna make the most of my time like a Rolex
Never catch me kissin' death and smokin' rollies
I stay ahead of all these little freaks like Gomez
'Cause see I treasure all the freaks like I'm the Goonies
Excuse me, still got a few wires loosely
Danglin' by threads just like Brandon Lee
At least they'll remember me for damagin' a set
Yo, when it's my time to jet
I'm esoteric, no cemetery for me to rest, nah
See, I ain't scared of death, no
I'm scared of livin' an unfulfilled life full of regrets though
You smoke billies in Beverly Hills, Jethro
I trek through Nepal even when I'm on death's door
[Refrain: Drapht]
You can feel it in your spirit
Ain't no walls no more, don't fight it
Don't fight it
[Verse 4: Dazastah]
Sweet death release me 'cause every step forward's
Like a step in foeces or really confusing
Like sex with the he shes, I'm screwed either way
In this test of species, I went from me being
Lost and pathless in a world so bogged in darkness
Now I'm like a moth on target
Snake oil everywhere in the imposter market
But it's smellin' like dogs on carpet, uh
So I'm holdin' the keys
Question all the things I was told to believe
I chew my food for thought instead of swallowin' memes
I'm not tryna be woke, I'm just followin' dreams
Everyone's got dark demons
And past treasons, unfair card dealings
They say the world is full of glass ceilings
I'm like bricks in the hands of the done dealing
[Outro: Hunter]
Ha, all right
Check it, yeah
It's like this
Perth city is the spot where the Syllabolix kick it
[Turntablism: Rob Shaker]
"And if I die tonight, whata sweet death]""So I'm back again, like I never left"
"Burn my name into the sands of time"
"My fingers on the pulse, you breathin' new lies"
"And if I die tonight, what a sweet death"
"So I'm back again, like I never left"
"Raisin' a glass to a past not known, gone"
"This ain't no [?] this my breath in a song"

Release Me was produced by Sesta.

This track is a throwback to where it all began those twenty odd years ago with Hunter & Dazastah’s album Done DL.
I was just a quiet 17 year old kid at the time, with little to no confidence. One night way back when and a few beers deep I showed Hunter and our friend Bonoe some verses I had be...
