Mic Check 02:46
Emcee Persia: Mike drops on head knodders we connected like Wi-Fi New flavor in them eardrums sip it like Mai Tai Him and I go back like high fives Still my pint-size gets side eyes like pink styes Who would of thought it not a thot but a goddess who brought it harder and flawless more than most of these artists just saying Brush them shoulders off get off the brizzygra hit these spots up like Gorbachev when I set it off autopilot d u double beat behind me find me in the corner morphing into something mighty Hulk Ninja Ranger Wonder Spider Vader Powers in my lines like shifts in the equator Butterfly effect one bar at a time Changing position like it's from the divine I'm a queen among many your strong as your own tribe That's why kings are plenty and together we ride Chorus Mic check one two to the two two to the three I'm next it's you then it's me Queen on standby watch you murder this thing hands all rise, all hail the king Big O Verse: The King is I Gotta lotta Gas to get off Spazzin aint nuttin Fire up the Mic and get to ashin it off Pandemic O be Bustin Wait why yo mask comin off Did I walk into yo crib, grab yo chick now my pants comin off? Violate Watch me exnihilate As pupils dilate Never say dumb shit like TRAFFIC, When you ask why I’m late Casemate professional, Stay out of confessionals Never private with my privates When time for some sexuals Most intellectuals get vexed cuz I have extra pull They’ve had extra school and still I ball out like a testicle Danglin, mangle men for involving in my entanglements. Best to mind your business or find out why you been strangled and cast out Never cast doubt till I’ve cashed out Hope I’m assed out? Hold ya breath till Ya pass OUT U’ll neva fuck wit O cuz you Bum flow Fugazy You stupid stupid STUPID MY dumb flow go CRAZY ,ya BITCH! Chorus Mic check one two to the two two to the three I'm next it's you then it's me Queen on standby watch you murder this thing hands all rise, all hail the king Grand Skeme Verse TBA

Time Flies (free) 02:40
I thought folks can't change like stripes on a tiger But he has proved me wrong watching haters and likers Party hypers now hikers and bikers one nighters and fighters turn to Binky finders On that gangster s*** Baby naps with pinky blinders watching 30s groups keep hope alive on Grindr Some people find Jesus trying to walk the path of righteous Til someone pushes buttons taking them weak for kindness We get the itis barbecues and the L's Casting spells in cipher beats blazing the trail More concerned with politics now than chasing tail Trying to rack up life insurance and double the mail So many fails but pails to the wisdom unveiled Moved on to teach but it blows past them like sales Tech minds and know it alls wonder how they get it wrong When facts contradict outcomes math and all Truth blinded love complicated You see what you want to see until your suffocated Come up for air everything is clear 20/20 hindsight got clarity there Oh snap like flex fits my text gets fixed here How could I have been so dumb so many years Throwbacks like blowbacks as time lines appear 5 years ago eye rolls and holding tears I remember when begins random convos Happens more often than Trump at Maralogo Since hydro puffin hydro I flow like hustle and Mr. Dapper Dan run it back once again And again like track meets but we ain't trying to win Cuz hopes of blowing up has been blowing in winds Well it all depends what you consider the win Cause life after hip hop began where it ends

Die 4 02:38
Persia: I got one set of boys that I would die for girls so pretty all else an eye sore Major pretty people problems of course jealous hoes that want to cut that face of yours watch em cyborgs connect like mic cords online pedos hunt like wild boars I'm looking down the road like cars and visors here to protect keep em out of Kaiser 3 doors down may be a burglarer, murderer, neighborhood basement torturer demons in their ear I fear them that when they hear them they let them steer them I pray them away like I'm a sorcerer white light bright around their curvature sage up the vibe holy water the spot and if that don't work we break out the glock Chorus: Dria Thornton I keep my eyes on the people that’s in my life I keep my pride And the little ones by my side I won’t leave the world until they know their place and they know they’re why In the darkest space I will be their light till the day I Die Verse 2: Don't wear that hoodie stand up straight when you walk Try not to look mean Speak soft when you talk Natural debaters love to Spit facts these little brainiacs dare you to talk back cops don't look like that, I put on game but who knows whatll happen when it counts to the grave I don't know but i try its hard to see insight When they eyes online living AI lives safer than most so can they take pain Blocks trial and error like mice in a maze so amazed I'm here Not like many peers We shared a classroom but never made it 4 years Weirdos, zeroes, captain save em heroes Maga mobs defend guilt like Shapiro Hold still force fed the red pill Come out the other side to die or live well Chorus: Dria Thornton I keep my eyes on the people that’s in my life I keep my pride And the little ones by my side I won’t leave the world until they know their place and they know they’re why In the darkest space I will be their light till the day I Die

Okay 02:36
Sometimes you have to say okay I see that's how you want to play Question their mathematics I'm bad at acting I'm constantly trying to practice Shutting the f****** up Chin checking my own jugular oh it gets uglier By the second I reckon it beams off of everything regulating my whole being Let you know without a word, Crystal clear without a blur Now please pass the reefer sir So I can calm down my inner gangster you got it all riled up now Meditated it way namaste pray to God I choose a better way when I say Chorus: Oh okay I see, that's how you want to play yeah uhhuh okay yeah uhhuh okay yeah uhhuh okay I see that's how you want to play You're so blessed to see another day Give a cat an inch they take a yard away Grand Skeme Verse: TBA Chorus: Oh okay I see, that's how you want to play yeah uhhuh okay yeah uhhuh okay yeah uhhuh okay I see that's how you want to play You're so blessed to see another day Give a cat an inch they take a yard away

Translucent 03:36
Chorus: Surf on the tears of your body’s eyes, let its vision match your mind’s, take it one step at a time, expectations make you blind I can see so clearly now feeling how i need to start weeding out the seeds of doubt A force to be reckoned the fact of it is as is im Immaculate God given and loved beyond good enough my temple in the physical realm Is a shell of what is yet to come 'm a soul among soulless I need soldiers to roll with if you down with the crown then come on around and bring 3 pounds dopeness Off the brain calm and tame yet muthafuckin ruthless I been trained To hate myself forgetting where the beginning of my roots is Now I know I'm on a idle flow Feng shui My way taking it nice I'm woke to dark things that's why i glow life finds a way like embryos I'm in disposed head to my toes focus the lotus and meditate so that I can grow Surf on the tears of your body’s eyes, let its vision match your mind’s, take it one step at a time, expectations make you blind We got a clip and the crib could give it a grip but there's nothing to hit it's a digital grid hack the mind with flick of the wrist Swipe and a mouse and a clickity click deflections in all directions Rigged elections to live erections Misconceptions from deceptions Makes connections to lung infections I saw a murder happen slow motion Angle to angle making me hit peaks of emotion Oh for real it was so surreal like drowning under hypnosis How do we heal when scars we sheild constantly get ripped open Believe what I say not What you see Land of the free hypocrisy Party of lies and ideocracy Builders of Monstrosities pray with me push away the beast through strength of the most high for God has many homes and languages and one is the 3 rd eye.
