Scream Phoenix Lyrics

[Intro: Vast Aire]
I know cats been through some shit
But we about to elevate right now
Bout to scream Phoenix

[Verse 1: Vordul Mega]
Mega-allahs star seen only afar
The physical Amar chosen, my craft is bars
We rebel righteous, with stabs and scars in the heightness
Rep live, graf artists and ghetto writers united
Starvin' with one table and no mic
And still get it on bombin' and flow nice
Spit vomit and throw dice
Taking chances in life trying to get by
And stop all the time gettin' high
Gotta clear mind and stay focused, avoid serpents
And worship life
We like merchants
Street peasants with these lessons
Live, build, and pass away, and keep stressin'
Thinking how we gonna master days
With passion, that's why we rap this way
From Manhattan 115 to 1-3-5
We pigeons became phoenix with open minds
To open yours, flow the raw innovative
Phoenix

[Hook: Vast Aire & Vordul Mega]
So when you see me shine light (better scream phoenix)
The god locked in a cell (scream phoenix)
Moms can't post bail (you gotta scream phoenix)
Jesus on a crucifix (scream phoenix)
Jesus on a crucifix (scream phoenix)
Jesus on a crucifix

[Verse 2: Vast Aire]
Yo, birds of the same feather flock together
Congested on a majestic yo (no..no..no..)
My feathers and flames are one skin
Hallowed be Thy name in the beginning there was no sin
We in the ninth inning, and I'm God body trying to win
Flying against the wind
But now my shell is weightless and fireproof
But the truth is I'm proof of living fire
I'm not made of organics, not even wires
Just felt my body light up and heard the choir
See to the common fowl the phoenix is sire
Most high of all things to ever have wings
Existence is struggle, resistance is futile
Meanwhile we now possess the power of ten suns
To transcend and elevate into one
Famine, the disease and senseless dying is done
Pigeon bird got a breath left
Heart beat no more
Phoenix bird morph and we live off the G-force

[Hook: Vast Aire & Vordul Mega]
Ha, scream phoenix
The god locked in a cell (scream phoenix)
Moms can't post bail (scream phoenix)
Jesus on the crucifix (scream phoenix)
Scream phoenix (scream phoenix)
Scream phoenix

[Outro: Vast Aire & Vordul Mega]
Gotta, 1-3-5
What, 115
What
(You gotta, you gotta, scream phoenix)
Trapped in the system, pigeons
Trapped in the, what, pigeons, yo
