LigeNewton:
Scratch that last conversation
And you can count on cutting out
Every word yet to come out of my mouth
You never mentioned moving on
On top of staying so strong
And now i'm standing still
JJ Jones:
You were told to the bring the pain so from the ceiling’s where I hang,
Deflated as the rain decides to pour on my parade,
At any given day these thoughts could flip the other way,
But I’m stuck like this for now and yea I feel like I could break.
Keenote:
You wanna tango
We’re not tied, we’re tangled
Sundried from the spotlight, angel
How’d those fun times rust up your halo
Washed up wings keep me unstable
Giving everything until life’s not painful
I had dream, what’s unsettling
That goddamn dream’s what taught me fake hope
Shadow:
Today my fucking back hurts, still able to write this rap verse
Forgive Me For My Synapses, I'll think before I act first
No actors. But here I am I play my role to a T
Killed the game cause I'm original overdosed with ingenuity
Hotrock:
I'm nervous, not pervish, slick when i spit some verses
Play with words in herses, jerking off on mommas purses
No really what's the worstest, that can happen
When I'm rapping, naked in saran wrap wrappin
Everybody staring traffics jamming
LigeNewton:
Reflecting road side images
Too much to tie together
Too much to comprehend
JJ Jones:
Release me from my chains it feels my brain is playing tricks on me,
Cutting against the grain is all I know a fish swimming up stream,
Jump in the river take the lunge into life and see,
The beauty of it all and it all feels like a dream.
Keenote:
Sign shit with some malcontent
It’s in blood cause I’m bout the mess
I was in love with your paralysis
Taught her how to tower threats
I invested what I had left
A fucked head and background checks
Wouldn’t say it worked, but it’s the best
My life over yours, Death
Shadow:
Chemical imbalance, in my mental, I'm not challenged
Stay mixed up with this sick stuff but I spit with all this talent
Bad habits are now valid, catch me sippin half a gallon
May seem I live the dream, I don't, still you could only imagine
Hotrock:
No I can't even imagine, what the fuck might happen
If these drugs that I've been packing, turned on me attacking
Every little nerve, extremities start to curve
Then trip like a twit, cause it's hit after hit
I was born to be absurd
LigeNewton:
Scratch that last conversation
And you can count on cutting out
Every word yet to come out of my mouth
You never mentioned moving on
On top of staying so strong
And now i'm standing still

Shadow:
I am feeling half mechanical, but fully understandable
I'm rabid like an animal, loaded bout to catapult
On rappers that are average, I'm disgusting, I'm a savage
I'm stabbing over and over 'til the blood is leaking that quick
Keenote:
Stab straight through the bandages
That heart shaped mold’s still plastic
A blood creek leads to my cabin
Abrupt speech leads to me gasping
I can’t wait till they see what’s happened
Critiques keep me above average
Feel free to beat my last shit
You bastards couldn’t manage
JJ Jones:
Sicker than your average, damaging tracks polishing antics
More drunk than your dads get, still we pop off so ecstatic
Yo we bring the madness, burning reefer no need for cabbage
I made this shit a habit, going rabid try to manage me
Hotrock:
I don't do this for me or for the crew
I do this for her and I do it for you
Not a fuck about fame but 2 fucks about truth
Respect for the game and regrets for the flooks
It's all in a day, to do what we do
but my shits great and so is my crew
We ballin all night, with or without the flu
23's on our backs, with or with out our the shoes
LigeNewton:
Don't ask
I can't promise I won't tell
It won't last
Just listen and learn what you will
(6x)
On for the money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
No let's go cats go
JJ Jones:
Watch what the fuck keeps flying out of your mouth little kiddy
Caught, in the act of dying, all these colors look so pretty
I love the bass its gritty, to me, this shit seems fitting
Cut you rappers at your roots revise your plans before spitting
Shadow:
With a beat that is this monster, and some emcees that aren't sponsored
We're about to make you think we are more than a fucking concert
You need an answer? We've got cures for music cancers
And pent up anger for strangers while we stab with these daggers
Keenote:
You loved your music but you couldn’t wake her
This is a wake sir. I know you’re angered
Sign this waiver
Take her to a place where you wait there
And wait there
It’s just you and her and that blank stare
But she still prefers my great hair
Short story shorter, fair’s fair
You rapped like the tortoise and lost like the hare
Hotrock:
Your masteplan to be most masculine
You lose sight of goals of whats happening
But the cats in the batter and the facts are what matters
We're pullin back the hammers and we watch it all splatter
The wits we've written's the shit we spittin
Never coppin lines we're wolves not chickens
You're like a broken watch cause your shits not clickin
Or like a healthy motha fucka cuz ya shits not sickening
LigeNewton:
Don't ask
I can't promise I won't tell
It won't last
Just listen and learn what you will
One for the money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
Now lets go cats go

(Muse)Sick

LigeNewton:
Misheard
JJ Jones:
We've always got along I feel I found ways to relate
Slowly falling from grace, yeah we took that leap of faith
Have to sit back, watch and wait, without a minute to waste
Grinding timely, slowly climbing, like this shit must be our fate
Hotrock:
It's a special blended recipe mixtures of the best of me
Music is the best ecstasy. Loud as shit is a necessity
An ear canal catastrophe. You hear the sub now blastin deep
Then we jump in when its bumping
Cause we somethin that you slackers need
Keenote:
I’ve been powerless for hours now
I shout and spit but get a muffled sound
That sour taste in my coward mouth
Might be the catalyst to me puking out
My saddest shit all while on the couch
If I had a life I wouldn’t have a doubt
That death may be my only out
From this anxious, depressed, looping route
Shadow:
When it started I felt like I could do nothing else
Music was my muse and life was put up on the shelf
This is me, my life, my everything, reflection of myself
Gaining wealth is a thing I've never felt
And that's just how the cards are dealt
LigeNewton:
I'm payed in promises
And in spoken word
And they'll say what they got to say
And they'll say you just misheard
Misheard
Keenote:
Club bros cut the check
I’m that trouble
Trudged in fucking wet
I was nervous
Instead of that blurred pic
Take this high def person
Welcome to the fucking show
Welcome to perfect
Fuck ups never fucked up
Wishes must be working
JJ Jones:
Hands up can’t you see this is nothing short of a robbery
You can’t bother me I harvest these
Times of need when I need time to breathe
The lights and scenes enlighten screams
I’m coming undone ripped at the seams
Dimethyltryptamine can’t you feel the music take me?
Hotrock:
It's way more than meets your ear and more than the beats you hear.
To truly understand it one play will not keep it clear.
It isnt just sounds and commotion
it's verbal fluid moving through your soul, theoretically emotionless.
Shadow:
After I had put this notch up in my belt,
I knew I was the only one I could go to for some help, when I jumped
No one ever there to catch me when I fell
Pros and Cons Ups and Downs in this business
Isn't hard to fucking tell
LigeNewton:
I'm payed in promises
And in spoken word
And they'll say what they got to say
And they'll say you just misheard

Shadow:
Distorted thinking, first in order is drinking,
I'm sinking, I don't care if I drown now
What's the meaning?
I've been fiending for weeks to just scream
And finally get this motherfucking sound out
Yo
You better cower down, to this Codependent power sound
We gave ya girl a flower pound, don't mistake us for some coward clowns
Feeling powered down, almost homeward bound
Fame gave us 15minutes but we're going on an hour now
Voice box awkward, off beat, no posture, Osgood–Schlatter in my left knee
I keep on onward, never ponder any longer, if i'll beat or conquer
When I write or create if it's greatness that I conjure
I'm on sir and I've never been sponsored
I'm a monster on the mic and these here are my partners
Your looking our way, better witness this
I'm the sickest emcee when I rip this shit
This a fitness tip, for your tongue to stay fit
Get a grip, when I flip, then you better flip with
Pause. Play, so I can slow it down a bit
My heads growing too large, for this fucking crown to fit
You think I give a fuck? I don't give an oz of it
You want the dap, then you better fucking pound the shit
LigeNewton:
Lets take a chance, I'll change my ways
Play our part in fate. Unfamiliar not the same
And we will seek the things, these journeys unseen
When nothing's out of reach, success is measured in our dreams
The salt in your veins
I"m counting down the days
The sugars on your tongue
Sweetly coating your lungs
Keenote:
Three fourths of this fifth is mine
Find me growling at the earth for my moonshine
Skirted my bride
A dress to fill
Her credentials killed the vibe
Bitch, invites are hard to come by
Just insight from me crawling inside
Dig up busters so I can skullfuck Custer
Cloak and daggered hustlers
I’m soaked in my gasoline duster
It’s simple. Just step slow
The hunter if he gets close
He’ll get a Gustov Fring nose deconstructed
Cheeks are nothing. We disgusting
Weed, trees, freaks with J’s, and blunts man
A dozen beer garden bracelets
It’s been a fuzzy month, damn
Highly functioning
Hail Mary, full of ‘tussin
I want my moon back
I’m shaking like Sutton
You don’t choose rap until you loose at something
Woah, hold up
Imma take a piss mid-flow
I just hope that the sick know
It’s my spit that swole up their lymph nodes
Got a bad chick, unlawful
Debby downs downers till the ER
Found her floundering in the car
A night on the town to a scene where
Your dancer’s dreams came up with the puked out Z bars
Some white light in the mirror
Wide lines and you tear up
Cheers us, beers up, fear’s tough
Substance makes us fearless
I quit hard shit so my hardship isn’t
Hard to fix with trees, but...
LigeNewton:
Lets take a chance, I'll change my ways
Play our part in fate. Unfamiliar not the same
And we will seek the things, these journeys unseen
When nothing's out of reach, success is measured in our dreams
The salt in your veins

The sugars on your tongue
Sweetly coating your lungs
Hotrock:
You signed a contract well what spell they got you under.
You reminded me of a phony me, but back when i was younger.
Actin like you make it rain our tracks are makin thunder.
You smell like your the shit but im the mother fuckin plunger...
Back when i took time my tracks clashed and smashed i booked dimes I'm always looking grimy bitch I'm sexy at the same time.
(Enkrypted scratching.)
Enkrypted on this track and he's skritchit scratchin brand new.
Your cancers floodin all the gates, we're here to fuckin dam you. Eastbound and down just get the hell out of our town dude.
We the steak up on the plate you still discussing canned food.
When your bored its hard to ignore us like we're in the dam nude.
Back when I use to give a fuck, still never gave a fuck a bout you.
Fact is that you suck, the only credit I would give is to doubt you.
Like they doubted we would make it, but we stole it they mistakin, took the goods back to our station, played it loud and watched em shaken. Crumpin to the thumpin, 5-0 thinks we're up to sumthin.
But cause sumthin isn't nothin, bump till all the walls are crumbling...
JJ Jones:
I wanna see the bubbles catch and release all of your troubles,
Tried staying humble smash your ego watch you crumble,
Shut my eyes in anguish cutting at the pain that hangs in,
The back of my brain I can’t sustain any relations,
Lacking empathy and self preservations,
Bang these to my heartbeat until my chest caves in,
No you can’t save him he’s a slave to the payment,
Pour me another all that matters when the day ends.
Stop that, bring it back past the fact I act irrational,
Unimaginably an animal yielding a heart that is detachable,
Compatible cannibal eating impractical radicals,
Practically laughable once you see they are invaluable,
(Uh) Turn the volume up let the bass take over everything,
At the top of my lungs I scream the evening brings dreams,
Laid my eyes to sleep only to see I couldn’t see,
To hell with decency we don’t know what decent means,
A toast to the end of the world is all you’ll ever be,
At most a friend to the girl who let it all go seemingly
Tell me are you living free? Missing out or just diminishing,
Don’t go for mimicking you gotta earn the right to think first.

LigeNewton:
I'm searching for a cure
In commas and misplaced punctuation
Explanation, in excuses and mispronunciation
(4x)
I'm searching for a cure
Keenote:
Shock and awe is my honed craft
In a zone prone to bats
My dome’s soaked in rum
And dumbed down off that potent hash
Up on what hold’s you back
Get the fuck gone in hopes to relax
No intentions. No Contact
Codependents a concept
Crushed Pabst
Bust ass to the venue to re-up our gas cash
The public’s got me grumpy
But the bar has got me smashed
Why rap? So I can time her till her thigh fat
Measures up to my lap
Unpretty like a junkie’s relapse
If I hadn’t done this I would be that
Hotrock:
Peak through the curtains take a look as he
rehearses verses before the crowd he'll preach
He's nervous stern look on the mask you see
His stomachs turnin off the cliff it leaped
Been a long time coming but it's happening
yo he joined the Army now he's back again
his primary weapon is a pad and a pen
and he's never gonna sign a contract again
It's a Codependent life live this shit right now
Fucking rage and let the sound come out
Mob the stage just to get kicked out
Kiss a chick flip her tit if ya get bitched out
Squash the noise end the shit right now
We've been changing things by word of mouth
The rap gods have chosen and we're bout to plow
Us four as one raps poster child.
LigeNewton:
In soft spoken and broken words
But I have heard much worse in a Codependent verse
But now you're wearing away your welcome
And this is nothing less deserved
Broken down and deserted
This is something heard but half learned
JJ Jones:
I’m nervous but this is perfect soon, it will all be worth it,
Just a few more drinks to mask it and I’ll be ready to burn this,
Fucker to the ground with a sound that we’ve grown into,
Weapons of mass destruction is what the fuck we’re gonna give you,
First I need to get through my head with all these issues,
Can’t focus on a thing so I smoke out to clear the misuse,
Going on in my brain try to regain and recollect,
If you can’t see that I’m a mess well then I guess I’m at my fuckin best!
Shadow:
Well this isn't even home to me, but this is who I've grown to be
Don't even live here and still I'm bringing home the groceries
Mostly booze and potent weed, I'm floating free in these broken dreams
I'm married to my self esteem, you fucks should make a toast to me
I'll murder you on anything, I'll say it openly
Your girl isn't feeling you? Probably cause she groping Deez
Black tee, black steez, but I'm Blackfeet
We run this fucking thing, RezErected Track Team
LigeNewton:
I'm searching for a cure
