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

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

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

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

Translucent

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.

Slump

Kick it up to crump status whose the baddest
keep haters the maddest
call up the Vatican I'm blessin up the planet
right about now the shitty fan hits
drop roll and cover like police on patrol
wobble with a double in your cup of patron
sip and back dip get on my mic jones
slap this beat up 35 on bones
I'm a whole lotta momma on base
roundin 3rd
Little Perj on second Brooklyn catchin my verse
guess what happens when you put ladies on first
partys over tell the rest of the skirts
Chorus:
Just what I needed was some slump
to get me out of my slump
vibrate your bumper with the bump
get ya party on lit turn it up
boobonic bionic atomic with the boom boom
my white light bright from womb to tomb
erratic melodic on the base we get dumb
on your humalama supersonic ear drums
Lean Back on the speaker bloody Mary on rocks
Spicy on the rim lick it off slow and hot
Felt the base kick, DJ switched the track
I said yessss, damn needed that
Since 8am dreamin about now,
Body turned on, vibration on pound
Give it to me nice and ruff I like it loud
emcee said HAY HO went the crowd
Old school shit classics never go out
Somethin bout drums makes me go wild
Drops on the one I'm done I go hard like
Hardy Har Har Har
Chorus:
Just what I needed was some slump
to get me out of my slump
vibrate your bumper with the bump
get ya party on lit turn it up
boobonic bionic atomic with the boom boom
my white light bright from womb to tomb
erratic melodic on the base we get dumb
on your humalama supersonic ear drums
