Things have culminated with the understanding she isn’t the one. I’m over her, moving on, and I’m embracing my superpower: rap dexterity. I can do it all, I can kill them all, and for archr and I’s birthday month, I’m taking everyone’s form.
Intro (Laye):
It's like the Doppler effect; wild changes over enough distance
Hook 1 (archr):
Don't you wanna be me, everybody stares
Don't you wanna see me, I'm getting glares
I Just wanna be you
But no one wants to be me (ahh)
I can pretend to be you
If you wanna trade your skin for those shoes
If you wanna try to see what I can do
Because I can do anything I put my mind to
Bridge (DAX)
// You're dead to me, oh no
You're dead to me, oh no
Your skin is mine, your skin is mine
You're dead to me, oh no //
Hook 2 (archr):
You can walk alone but I will always find you
You talk alone but I will always find you
You can take your own but I will always find you
I'm gonna find you
Verse 1 (DAX):
...DAX has been the hottest since the cradle
...serving up you niggas with a ladle
Team Future, ain't no fucking with the label
Really, I'm feeling like Game 4 Leo
I be cutting heads, I'll make a motherfucker lay low
Hit her with the "Block" like J-Lo, ready for the
Drop like Halo, got 'em with the chop like
Kratos, I would only stop when I say so
Cut off your legs, and I’ll run the track
Mic's got a scope with a gun attached
Keeping my kills on a hunnit max
Death won't allow you to run it back
Take out your heart and I punt it, pass, bleeding you've
Done it fast, fleeting life, on your last, meaning you
Were aghast, I can take any form, souls: I'll take
Many more, shots: I'll take Henny, I'm no longer 24
Bridge 2 (DAX):
Scorpio season, man, I'm on a roll
Spooky season, this is the horrorscope
Fuck niggas, they been out of line
They just files: executable
Don't talk to me no more
Don't talk to me no more
Don't talk to me no more
Don't talk to me no more, no
Verse 2 (Louv):
You fucked up, nigga, don’t talk to me
I keep a bunch of deadly weapons in my armory
To give to the f’yooch army that gon’ walk with me
Take a wack style and make it fire, call it arsony
Underground legend: they could never ever son a g
Think that he a noble? I send 6 to him like Halo Reach
I’m the OG drip lord, say a verse and she might soak her jeans
Study gods to kill them: I’m the evil twisted Socrates
Acting like some demons, you’ll get slaughtered for that foolish pride
Pull up then they vanish, call these pussy niggas "Kitty Pryde"
In the lab like Jekyll, kill your bitch, so I can wear her "Hyde"
My, my - causing homicide to past time
No RE2 but I’m hitting a lick, I might just
Spazz for the cheese like I’m Rick, out for blood, what a
Beautiful scent, I put a blade through your skin; let it
Rip, throw your body to the bay, then I dip, aye
Hook 3 (archr):
Don't you wanna be me, everybody stares
Don't you wanna see me, I'm getting glares
I just wanna be you
But no one wants to be me (ahh)
Verse 3 (DAX):
Hard shit to choose, but it's harder to lose
Don't get it twisted, I see you're confused
This is mortality, it isn't as bad, it seems
The bad in me's beating your brains with a battering, killing you casually
...I call it "versatile," opponents be softer than Play-Doh, I really don't
Play though, I murder these beats for the pay roll, write this in ink or the Crayol, man, I had to
Verse 4 (DAX/Louv):
Link with the Creole, archr, he stings with an arrow, I been distinct like a Pharoah
Take off your arm like you Nero, blood starts to pour as your souls floats above like a sparrow
Your skin is mine, I'm gonna rip to the brink of the marrow, Louv, you can tell 'em
Put your dumbass in a barrel, no Walter White, you just a poltergeist: already dead
You must die for my own twisted desires, so sorry to say but it’s off with your head
Authorities search for you but it’s too late for you; they find your body parts left in a shed
(Tearing your) flesh, I can hear death on your steps, my blade will give you a new rift, sound is a
Definite success, I'll make this your one parting gift, call it RED SHIFT, f'yooch
Your Skin Is Mine was written by Louverture & Archr & DJ DAX.
Your Skin Is Mine was produced by Archr.
DJ DAX released Your Skin Is Mine on Wed Oct 28 2020.
This song was tackled with several goals in mind; performing a fusion of versatility and horror being paramount. I framed most of my macabre bars in the light of usurping my victim’s talents, abilities, forms, etc (ex: cutting off their legs to subsequently “run the track”).
