Neon is a chemical elements with the symbol Ne and atomic number 10.  It is a noble gas. Neon is a colorless, odorless, inert, monatomic gas under standard conditions with about two-thirds the density of air
[Sample]
“Charlemagne music, bruv. Get used to it. Haha”
[Swigga (AKA L-Swift)]
Yeah! Whoo! NE! Swigga fo’ sho’! Ooh!

[Verse 1: Swigga (AKA L-Swift)]
Lyrics to go
Uh, ridiculous flows, fishing for quotes
Literally bring the fish to the boat, uh
And that was still before I put the bait to the hook
By the time I realized it, it’s filleted and it’s cooked. Look, there’s
Levels to the views of my Elements crew. Let it
Never be misconstrued with America’s news. Tribe
Called Quest tributes and separate Q’s
‘Cause we do the type of shit these niggas never would do
When our vocals hit the mix, it’s like a solar eclipse, but can’t
Nobody block our shine—we tell ‘em, “Don’t even glimpse.” Still
Burning fuel odors in the open abyss
‘Til we turn to supernovas and explode into bits. Shit, it’s
Fire in the hole like we’re mining for coal
But we keep mining ‘til we find our iron and gold
As our assignments unfold and it’s applied to the globe
I’ll be in a robe so much, I might remind you of Ghost—nope!
Scratch that—I’m in a scientist coat, putting
Together new concoctions to prescribe you a dose. You might
Get survivor’s remorse if you survive what I wrote. Hear NE
Hold this sick medicine—you don’t die if you don’t
‘Cause we bring apocalypse like what the Mayans was told, but we
Live in our own world, so fuck your climate control
We decide when it gets hot and we decide when it’s cold. Natural
Elements in your body and your mind and your soul, lyrics
To go. Zoom!

[Interlude 1: Janay Saxon]
Elements with even atomic numbers are generally more common than their neighbors in the Periodic Table due to favorable energetics of formation

[Hook: Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)]
The night is on my mind
You know the Sun’ll still shine
The night is on my mind
The night is on my mind
Ayyo, the night is on my mind
You know NE forever shine
But the night is on our mind
Ayyo, the night is on our mind

[Verse 2: Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)]
For us, the Sun and moon align up
For you, it means, by goons, you’re getting lined up
I’m 3M, I’m reflective, regalia eclectic
For this Hegelian dialectic
Dollar is a talisman in these calloused hands
Buildings looking like caves in Afghanistan
Concrete gardens, killer police squadrons, plea bargains
With legal jargon where you won’t see a pardon
In NYC, it’s Fear and Loathing
Versace robe and the moral fabric I’m clothed in
They die diagonal, sloping
I guess if you checked for these dudes, it’s vaginal probing
Flowing from the survival scroll and rises toll with death
In a saliva role ‘cause Hell requires souls, yo

[Hook: Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)]
The night is on my mind
The Sun’ll still shine
But, yo, the night is on my mind
The night is on my mind
Ayyo, the night is on my mind
You know NE forever shine
But now the night is on our mind
Ayyo, the night is on our mind

[Interlude 2: Janay Saxon and Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)]
[Janay Saxon]
The abundance of chemical elements in the universe is dominated by the large amounts of hydrogen and helium, which were produced in the Big Bang. Remaining elements making up about two percent of the universe were largely produced by supernovae and certain red giant stars
[Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)]
Can I kick it?

[Verse 3: Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)]
I left my wallet in Santurce, Puerto Rico
I think these two brujas might have took it while I was sleeping
Well, that’s what I get for having a wild weekend. Now I’m
Back in Manhattan, lights, camera, action
Flexing with a fashion that your mind can’t imagine
Savion Glover tap-dancing all over this
Track flipped by Charlemagne—you sick bastard
A-tisket, a-tasket, I’ll put you in a casket
Mr. Boombastic, Anthony Cruz rapping
Natural Elements, the mood is fantastic
My favorite Tribe joint is “Hot Sex On A Platter”
I just love hip hop songs, you know?
Like, “Check the rhyme, and lyrics to go”
“Bonita Applebum” and Midnight Marauders
Sip on Puerto Rican rum like we’re numb—why not?
We’re just having some fun—come vibe with us
