And i'm pushing, pushing back
cuz it's cushy living truthful without cash
And I'm rushing to get mad
cuz this flashy fancy fashions just a fad
It's the uncouth but cultured youth
Intellectual renegade speculating I bet you hate me resonating
That quote that Kurt Cobain said
I'll flow till I'm hurt or brain dead
Or better yet you'll get swept in the step of sentences
that have never been said
Yeah I'm killing it quicker than the strobes are flickering
yeah you know I'm sicker than Stifler and Hitler:
That's American Genocide -
That's Foreign Policy
yeah you guessed it I tell it right
I'm messing your mesmerized like
her chest is the bestest size
you get it? I'm getting mine.
What's next is the rest of life.
Bedroom recluse used to getting wrecked and letting loose
like privileged little kids on Ritalin never heard of meth abuse
except in the news and movies like cool dream
of beautiful booties soothe me that's truly what moves drool like I'm toothing
I never tune in at uni
I don't know what knowledge is
All I know's what I want when I'm gawping at college chicks
Ha
Get silly and stupid plus I like sounding ridiculous
rhyming sounds I mix viciously like that scene in Deliverance or what
David Lynch wrote about Laura Palmer references upon references yeah you bet I did it
I'm next to nothing? Nothing is close to me.
What is this ghost I see?
American culture pesky western vulture
eating scraps of the past fuck the bag there's no panic attack in this track
sucks for Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan
oh well at least we have Hangover 3 and Miley Cyrus
Don't stop the war and why don't you pry my eyelids Clockwork Orange
Pouring bombs while I'm soaring
beautiful score in scorching school
Belgrade in flames
we're the fools and we hate it
so we make it our day to day
to destroy and cause death from above
But where is the love and will.I.am serious
Where is the love?

Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while
Well you've gotta sing about love, once in a while, once in a while

I know I know I know I know I know I know I know
It's a jolly day to be alive and I don't know where I'm gonna end up
It's a jolly day to be alive and I don't know where I'm gonna end up
I know I know I know I know I know I know I know
I try to keep it sunny in my mind, 'cause that's how I feel
Moisture in the hot air: always surreal
Grew up in the cold and dark with malnourished health
But in the sun you stay cool and give love to yourself
I think its ironic how easy it is to be happy and free
Really I thought it was me who was sappy and mean
Just breathe a little
A little deeper
And wait
And it ummmm sort of just happens...

Kind of like a dream you just appear right in front of me
My mind's writing a screenplay/play with yourself in the audition
I'm the only one who's watching
We're they only two that talk
and we're walking, it's autumn and our hands are in our pockets
I'm nervous and I feel wobbly on my feet
see it's awkward:
Because none of this is actually happening
We're really still in class and I'm waiting for a chance to look back again
I think I've loved you since I first saw you at that shitty disco where they play Celine Dion
It's crazy looking back now and thinking that used to be fun
A few years go by and I'm a little more confident
I have a girl friend, I'm relatively happy: I think I'm in love
You somehow fall into my arms at a party and I think to myself:
It's not the romantic walk I dreamed of where we kiss in the golden glow of sunset through the yellow leaves but this is what I've always wanted. I have this rush of joy and euphoria in my arms and lips, I'm getting cocky like, "it was always bound to end up like this", but you eventually get bored and leave the room.
And I message you for days thinking, "something beautiful is going to happen, something beautiful is going to happen."
But it never does.
But it never does.
But it never does.
But it never does.

Rules of Attraction
Dazed and Confused
Blue Valentine
I get silly, I - I get silly
I get silly, I - I get silly
I get silly in love every time that I glance at you
I love your funky style and your crazy mad attitude
I love listening to all your stories about acid and shrooms
and I love how you remember the night that I asked to go back to your room
I feel peace and harmony like we're always in tune
and when we chat about the past we move together into the future
usually I'm confused and guarded but my heart explodes with you because we're fused and we're hotter than the sun like it's fusion
We travel on a shoe-string but still have enough for a boozy one
I'm seeing double but for us what's new is that two is one.
Something I never want you to be: my ex
Love that can touch through the screen: skype sex
Take of the Jean, I Luv and I see: God/art/Goddard: Breathless
Bed rest: impossible, popping bottles all night
and stay up to salute the sun
touch your toes, two in one
Lie back, relax and listen to my soothing tongue
Shaking and twitching, lately I'm thinking I'm addicted, high and blissful
Writing this, shy and bashful but still killing it.
But we love beyond hate: Subhan Allah
And you're a survivor: Beyonce..Malala
Fucking fierce never Tame...Impala
Fucking insane....fuckiiing insane....fuckiiiing insane
Twin Peaks

Luv Dreams

Raw Scottish talent, I vote yes on the ballot
because I luv peace but I'm always causing havoc
I'm not acting like a maverick or talking trash
I'm basking in relaxed in action like I'm chilling in a hammock
Just trying to keep sharing the good vibes
If you're sad then remember the good times
Smooth rhymes: that's what I love -
Words of wisdom slurred on verses, rhythm imperfect but I'm still working scribbling till my fingers hurt...shiiiiit
Luv for luv's sake is pointless and tough but one day in the sun rays with skin smooth and moist is still beautiful but I still ridicule love so let me tell you three letters that she said to me: L.U.V
Middle of the night thinking of the times when I was wishing you were mine
bringing me a smile, listening to the kind rhythm of your breath, twisting in my bed
kissing on your neck, you're dreaming and I can't sleep the heat of your back feels soft and your hairs tangled up and shining in this dark room. Streetlights and stars, beaming from cars, I need a little air, light a cigarette, quiet and yet my mind's a bit of a mess.
Fighting all this stress but you're fine sleeping getting rest, you sometimes ask me, "what's going on in your mind when you have insomnia?" Kind of feel like waking you up and talking to you.
But instead, I sit and watch you for a while, it doesn't help me sleep, but hey, you're beautiful. The smoke from my cigarette dissipates into the darkness and I'm alone with my thoughts, and eventually my flow comes back.
L.U.V: it's meant to be, spread the seed. U for universe, choose your words carefully you might ruin the verse, cool, absurd, ludicrous muse is hurt, loves a stupid curse word bursting with emotive hope crazy fast, locomotive, choke hold, cold is over it's summer now, the sun is out, luv is now. LUV is now.
Let it fade out.

Unconditional Luv

Space truckin' on my own
Twenty dollar bill on my phone
and I'm gonna spend it all on my mum
Cuz my mum, she says that she loves me
but I don't ever wanna go back home
and when I wake up in the morning
I'll be gone cuz I'm truckin' on
Wake up and I leave goodbye
Can't stay in when I see the sky
Didn't mean to make you sad
Didn't believe a crazy mad kid would come out swinging, singing, thinking this is it he's distant, is it finished? Unconditional luv has limits? Hold up, wait a minute, I don't know where my filthy villainous ignorant kid is.
my mum, she says that she loves me
but I don't ever wanna go back home
and when I wake up in the morning
I'll be gone cuz I'm truckin' on
Distasteful ungrateful kid, sacrificed my navel raised him and tamed crazy inside him.
Hyperactive like his father, life is rather unpredictable, I'm sick of all the risk involved.
And when I call is when it feels funny.
But when he calls is when he needs money.
my mum, she says that she loves me
but I don't ever wanna go back home
and when I wake up in the morning
I'll be gone cuz I'm truckin' on
my mum, she says that she loves me
but I don't ever wanna go back home
and when I wake up in the morning
I'll be gone cuz I'm truckin' on

We were lying back and watching
the clouds blooming and withering
a cool gust shivering over shrinking skin
around our bare arms and legs
and that smell of dried grass and sneezes
and midges and wasps tumbling around.
The plastic sparked us with electric shocks
and we rolled and bounced seeing the sky fall
and escape, fall and escape. Then under your breath
just before turning and closing your eyes you whispered
that thing that stuck in my head.
That we are all the way up here in the north
where it snows at silly times
in the middle of spring even
and the rest of the world thinks
that we spend our lives gazing
through windows at the rain.
But today we are lying in the heat
of the rare sun split red through the branches
living a secret life.
No one knows that we are here
at the top of the world
watching the deep blue of the sky fly
away from us. And in a way
it’s like we don’t exist at all.
The End.

TL:DR
ask me
I'm a stone cold realist
I know that you don't wanna feel this
I know that you think that my rhythm is shit but now let me just see if you mean it.
My ego's as big as my penis,
Ex-girlfriends they think I'm the meanest,
They say that I'm dirty their hearts are still hurting but I know, (in my heart of hearts), that my dick is the cleanest.
The Charlie I sniff is the Sheenest
The money I make is the C.R.E.A.M.est
I'm Rankin as high as the Rebus
Lied at the beginning, tired of believing, fuck your opinion, the is stone cold surreal shit.
And I'm not even close or near finished
I've got ebola I know I'm the sickest
and I'm Slick so I know I'm the Rickest
Notorious you know I'm the Biggest
So hot, got degrees, yeah I'm privileged...
L.U.V L.U.V
A different Kind of Luv.

Kicking back sitting actionless actually Adventure Time on my mind, Idly eyeing up prime Marilyn Monroe look-a-like, harm your own through the night.
I'm about to blow the fucking track up: so diffuse the Mic.
Utilizing used and tried music like I'm fusing IQ and stupid. I'm losing who's who in this groovy new and cool shit, new school shit, I'm confused, who's using who? Who's authentic? Who's bullshit?
Take two minutes to do some thinking, Steve Carrell stupid.
Pharrell produced it, music industry used it.
It's all psychology like time is stopping rewind and all of these costumes posthumously using tunes to make profits, mate. It's all psychology, pop activism, pop philosophy.
Pop goes the we sell an impossible image of probable happiness and sell it till everyone's similar. Mass hysteria, Iggy Azelia ass and Azealia Banks is getting hurt from the cultural smudging, it's serious. Am I delirious? I'm not making Hip Hop it's a shit-storm, I've been born too late to equate race and hate, I know it still pervades but to me it's another time, pretty much colour blind but others are stuck in time.
It's all psychology, history and monopoly, all of these awful things constantly stopping dreams, awkward teens shocked and teased, cops yelling stop and freeze: I don't know shit about that - all I know's I'm going fucking H.A.M on this track.
Happily stupid
Naturally ruthless
Fuck what you say put my dick in your toothless
Why ball when your hoopless?
Cooped up in the burbs it's absurd there's no roof left.
Stupid, i get stupid, so stupid.
Full of drink, rummaging for some vodka, rum and gin, coke on the side, so alive, I'm so fucking sick.
Guilty conscience, feeling robbed and awful, awkward identity, talking like abedy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnGPgCVJUsI), take a break, who's afraid things will stay the same?
I'm afraid things will stay the same.
I'm afraid things will stay the same.
I'm afraid things will stay the same.
Hate the way they've paved the fame for appropriation, they hope we hate them: feeding the click economy, elitists and thugs really hit it off it seems.
Pop activist
Popping bottles of the champagne and shit
How about I show you what brainless is
Drinking till the music becomes painless shit
Pop activist
Popping bottles of the champagne and shit
How about I show you what brainless is
Drinking till the music becomes painless shit
Acting stupid. I'm acting stupid. Why am I acting stupid?
Stupid.

It's over now. If you've made it this far and actually listened to every track, or at least a few of them, I am very thankful that you pay attention to what I work on. It's very kind. I only hope to share my experiences of the world in a mildly entertaining manner. I hope you enjoyed it.
Tell me if you read this message. Spread the Luv.
Peace.x
