Mr. Robotic 03:29
Rumble with something that I'm up against Watching Darren Aronofsky, honestly I'm lovin' it Half cup nostalgia, other half is overload Feeling like an open world, low health and vulnerable Check the CPU again, is the stream steady fam? Wishing I was near a real stream, so I disconnect Hours later watch the screen, shower so I feel serene Watch my brain eagerly dancing with any other scene Tread past the water making sure to boost my arteries Slim slow voyage, then my gut just sorta startled me It's still a fable so grab a bagel and break it down Everything with everything inside it til it's not around Nihilism, or breaking out the box still see the page Climbing down the hatch enter numbers, purgatory state Brax lost the math again but happy grounded with the grains Listen to the leaves and the trees, they all talk the same They all talk the same, we all talk the same This right here is Mr. Robotic Watch time skip, just trusting that process Fostering a vision, cautious with the light Honestly it really isn't simple but we try, sayin' This right here is Mr. Robotic Watch time skip, just trusting that process Fostering a vision, cautious with the light Honestly it really isn't simple but we try In this very life I'd be fine with just doing some chores with you Not only the chosen few are plagued by holding tortured views Chillin with this gravel sound, KO cooked the elements Still I see some space around so everything is relevant Still love writin' raps, but lots of things have changed perhaps Still drive a Civic, sometimes cynical we chase the bag Filling up my tank til its empty again The whole system bound to break, the banks are closing The breaks are bangin' and the levee is weak I took my dog for a walk but I couldn't even breathe Pardon me, the AQI is high again Maybe in another thousand years we can try again We can fly again, maybe try to win This right here is Mr. Robotic Watch time skip, just trusting that process Fostering a vision, cautious with the light Honestly it really isn't simple but we try, sayin' This right here is Mr. Robotic Watch time skip, just trusting that process Fostering a vision, cautious with the light Honestly it really isn't simple but we try

Most things start to fade, some things stay the same Watch it wash away, boy I love the rain, uh Straddle with the cosmic regiment The honest feedback loop with some resonance It caused me to step back, look at examine it Hooked on, something don't look strong, bandage it Watching all the ways we can hardly fit together now Seen it with the stimulus checks they were giving out People felt together then it's fleeting, gone quick Thought we learned a lesson then we're bleeding, nonsense It echoes out, similar with me, that's the energy When I'm feeling weak and my room isn't looking clean That's the time to meditate, this should have already known Seems my brain was built for tribes, troubled when it's all alone It's all on the tip of my tongue, it's all on the tip of my tongue I wish I wouldn't It's all what is said and not done, it's all what is said and not done Unless I let it It's all on the tip of my tongue, it's all on the tip of my tongue I wish I wouldn't It's all what is said and not done, it's all what is said and not done Unless I let it Most things start to fade, some things stay the same Watch it wash away, boy I love the rain! Most things start to fade, some things stay the same Watch it wash away, boy I love the rain! Another splendid sequence breakin' beats embrace the demons I thought I couldn't move, but here I stand then face the seasons Another time warp on tunnel turning, I can let it Bring the board again, I'm bored again so don't forget it Another splendid sequence breakin' beats embrace the demons I thought I couldn't move, but here I stand then face the seasons Another time warp on tunnel turning, I can let it Bring the board again, I'm bored again so don't forget it Ricochet with a new stance, see the dead plants Homegrown memories, a reminiscing nuisance Ohh this, got me feeling better than the day before High highs, low lows, 2012 on tour 94 I was four, time flies so fast Illmatic, Liquid Swords, KO brought the vibe back Stale with the flies still, old food, new skill Same mess, mitigate 9 lives, lost 2 Write these rhymes when the sky light finds you Always seem to help me zoom into my truth RIP Kevin, see your spirit still lives through Haystacks wandering, another gone too soon Most things start to fade, some things stay the same Watch it wash away, boy I love the rain! Most things start to fade, some things stay the same Watch it wash away, boy I love the rain!

Wherever I go, whatever I do See a suitable road with some cones from the cruise Always keep a small setup in the trunk with me too If I'm feeling bored, 9-ply, it's something to move It's that urethane playground, pavement is all around Stay for a while, stale fish finding common ground Pack it up, backpack full of soft wheels Drift heel side slide, Landyachtz, and long hills Which hill can wrong me? It's only happened once Four wheels pushin' down, one life with luck Two trucks holding up my stylish favorite ride I can really say I tried Took a wrong turn, pebbles slippin' with the urethane Next thing I know was I couldn't see anything Three other friends made sure it didn't end worse From freestyles on the highway to the second verse A way to get a way from the routine Skate away the day so soothing Rooted from the bay no new thing The pace I make when I'm cruising Built-ins spinnin', speaking on the cement Screeching or maybe clean it depends On many factors, treat my setup like an extension Of my body when I'm messed up And if I'm dirty, better believe The trucks and wheels build up grime, lose speed And that's just like me, gotta water the plant so to speak No soda water please, hop on my board and avoid the disease, go! A way to get a way from the routine Skate away the day so soothing Rooted from the bay no new thing The pace I make when I'm cruising A way to get a way from the routine Skate away the day so soothing Rooted from the bay no new thing The pace I make when I'm cruising Learned a lot from the internet, trial and error Met a guy named Malakai, shreddin' the stairs Copy the larger cats, pick a style and emulate Falling down five times, try again and demonstrate Meditative let it go Swear it was the only time in my brain thoughts were runnin' slow Watchin' lines on the road Ducking cones in any form with style is an obstacle A way to get a way from the routine Skate away the day so soothing Rooted from the bay no new thing The pace I make when I'm cruising When I'm cruising, when I'm cruising When I'm cruising, better than losing When I'm cruising, when I'm cruising When I'm cruising, better than losing A way to get a way from the routine Skate away the day so soothing Rooted from the bay no new thing The pace I make when I'm cruising A way to get a way from the routine Skate away the day so soothing Rooted from the bay no new thing The pace I make when I'm cruising

We're over here again, huh? I guess we're back over here We were over there, now we're back, here we go Yo, I find a place where it's time to break a lot of rules I'm not a fool, but I used to sneak up out of school Q Train, back to Brooklyn for bread and some gabagool Maynard James Keenan when I rap, I use the proper tools Radiohead, Thom Yorke when I'm blasting through Playing with the waves, still the same, watch me cast a clue Let the bait drop, hook, sink, lob, and throw it far Fishing for a shaman with these vulnerable and open bars Wonderful, my hope is large even if I'm sluggish And if it suits my case, then I will travel like my luggage These rappers are so rubbish, maybe garbage in London I spit bars in abundance, from the darkest of dungeons Then park at the function, so lively and lovely The arts at the junction stay grimy and grumpy The barn star can guide me and find when I'm lucky So levitate, Severus Snape, I'm still hungry How does hip-hop make you feel? It makes me feel happy and brave Second verse, reminisce on when I first started Hit some whirlwind, the turbulence got me feelin' carsick Lastly, the lost are found when you listen To the magic in the heart, still harnessing the vision I'm the smartest when I'm spittin' every target that I'm hittin' Is a marvelous depiction of an artist on a mission Impossible like fake meat, I'm on a roll like skate feet My family doing good, I'll be honest, it's been a great week So lately, taste these ill type ingredients Mixed up with the elements, heated feelin' feverish All four, used to keep score but it's pointless I'm more about community, a voice to the voiceless My choice is to be boisterous, or whisper minimal noises Wavy gems flow, swimming jewels like a koi fish Feeling joyous, ZEPS and Braxy did it again With an indigenous pen Enjoy the music, you're listening to the Braxy album Nothing but boom bap elements, beautiful vibes Shouts to everybody in the 209, we love you, peace!

Lost 02:58
A tougher rhyme to start than usual in many ways The whole last three years feeling like a daze I saw a part of me in pieces of our broken past All the cliches, like true love will last They sound funny til you're living them and never left I'm still tired, searching for the measurement Calculate the type A like personage Some days are fine, some days symptoms worsenin' Feel it my gut, but I still eat messed up Working on my health, it's hard wishing you the best luck Is it true that time pass and wounds heal? Am I an optimist, or just the fool on the hill? Can I conquer this, or will everything stay still? Reminisce on remedies that always make me ill 1, 2, 1, 2, the microphone's grip Listen to the beat, lie alone and sip I lost a piece of my own soul Just tryin to, tryna let you go I lost a piece of my own self Just lookin for, for a little help Verse 2, I'm worse dude, or maybe just the same My brains loopin', sorry if I complain The trains left the tracks, but I'm still here No ones at the station, hoping you appear Holding onto hope, nope gotta let it steer The river runs fast and the current makes it clear Flow with it, row row with the waves Not against the energy that pulses through my veins Listen to the sacred art that told me not care It's laughable now, wish I wasn't well prepared Ignorant bliss is something unachievable My brain breaks too fast, not just seasonal Watch the ebb and flow, still exiting my emo phase Waves crash, face mask, using it to hide away I loved the feeling that we gained when we loved each other I'll set the table for two, makin' my supper I lost a piece of my own soul Just tryin to, tryna let you go I lost a piece of my own self Just lookin for, for a little help

Divided truths, I find in you We're all still so so far, so clueless So close zoomed in, a pixelated fuzzy faces Dreamt I went through this Are you by my side? Glide through a windstorm The waves are making whitecaps, need to get low Sit down, the cabin, no fever Feel like going outside when I see ya The sun shines bright, look eternal glowing light Think it's dim sometimes, think it's them sometimes I can see the same pain in your iris Heavy eyelids, don't forget it's inside us Cheesy but the seasons bring a lot of change Looking at the moon shaking feeling strange I love the thought of love, look love Everything I can watch take shape Don't control it, let it go freely Don't define it, it's gone and it's breathing Let it be, it is beautiful this evening It's still beautifully deceiving We all feel so far, miles away Closer than it seems, gotta smile today Walk the same path, ignore the same pain The truth can set us free We all feel so far, miles away Closer than it seems, gotta smile today Walk the same path, ignore the same pain The truth can set us free When I think about the years passing always so quick Glad I had a couple people help me through the thick of it Less of that indirect, younger sister 5 years Taught me lots of things, the promise of always fighting fear Senior year bed side, battling all types of wack Trusting what my eyes can see, important things won't always last But the warmth is near, even failing Another lesson taught from pops was keep sailing And watch the shimmer of the sun beams waving bye Skipping over with the floaters racing through my eye Another warning was not to put it off for a day A timely notice from the others that have gone away We all feel so far, miles away Closer than it seems, gotta smile today Walk the same path, ignore the same pain The truth can set us free We all feel so far, miles away
