[Verse: Robalu Gibsun] Sea gully migration / flow quatro-coastal Outlasting sandcastles / life guarded, shoreness / President dropping drones / pathetic, he starting wars Innocent waterboarded / That’s why I’m washing clones Sister scream Stop It!/ Popper, stomp the roach Phone eavesdropping / recorder stocking snores Hungry, eat at home / itis, you sleep from toast Full of dreams black / I think I seen a ghost You sipping lean back / cancers, envy my growth Aquarius drunk at shows / Aye, yo, you seen my clothes? Performance fees so horrid / writers, need my poems runner, speed not on this / Corny, your feet got soreness Float like dentures / Oh Shoot! my teeth foaming/ You seem really mad / You team boogie boarding I feel like ski masking / I feel like robbing stores because their fees soaring / Indebted deep as oceans You niggas planton krill / snacking like a whale Smacking tail on the surface, so hard I crack a sail I make my own waves / surfing a long page proud of Robalu / I get the crowd to groove / I’m in the limelight / 15 seconds of blazed Rob G 2 Ras G / oooo high as space base Awesome, CLWDWLKR hijacking the space station / New Mythology Honored, blasting DarkTwaine shit Young Gods give your all / Old Gods still in chains Haters quick dissolve / Real negus feel my pain I sample haze, spazzed on this painting They scram to the lake, We swam thru your bays AYYY

I held the mic like a lightsaber I had to knight my neighbors (laughs) NaNa Na Naa The beat sound like a lightsaber Getting Swung around like a pendulum [Verse: Robalu Gibsun] DutTaDutDa, NaNaa, NaNaaa Naaaaaaaa Walk into the booth & the booth caught fire Working too hard, nervous & calm Burdenless, aw, Murdering songs Serving you bigots serpents & frogs Clutching your heart in the purplish dawn Park in the pocket, burning your bridges Thinking of robbing, jobbing & quitting Sleep in the cruiser, slobbering spitting Merging & ticking I’m swerving on bitches Rob Independent Keep leading & winning Multiple potholes to piss in Surviving & living like Sovereign Indigenous Fighting for rights, Fighting for dividends Map out a budget, detaching your taxes No more inaction, we full of compassion Rags to riches, we battle oppression Been in a casket, counting my blessings Lyrics put rap in a coffin to balance wit Dust your flow patterns Disrupt ya whole strategy F what y’all talmbout, Fk if you mad at me... Rappers, gold diggers & officers scattering Had it up to here with they savagery Buckets on buckets on buckets of flattery Rob in the mind of god when wine is done Fuck if you writing sumn, Fuck if you talking bout: Nah! NahNuh, Naaa - Naaa - NaNaaa Naaaaaaaal Sweeping down all your pilots Don’t need trees to be your highness Every car I flip need alignment Every bar I spit I won’t confined in Wise & foolish, surprising buddhists Ty & Robalu spark the room got higher (Ah!) I walk into the booth & the booth caught fire! [Verse: Ty Sorrell] Where I paint with tide facture Thru these dirty eyeglasses See my death in white rapture Had to mourn thru life’s chapter And I can’t be tired after Brought a force a fire faction And we here to fly passed ya Yo! I plan to hand em off the gift And a stage to make it happen Wild flames to dance you into crypts To hell we headed bitch, can’t phantom. Stand to make you niggas sit I live to make you sick It’s every gang at trump’s door, coming for it Know he sweating, laughing Pants will sag we mic what’s nearest The damned who went to fight with spirit Tranced by all these icon figures, Nikon flicking actors Drenched in waste, liquor and trash Ashy bags under the eyes passion An underground lab Where all the products come from macs, a practice

[Verse: Robalu Gibsun] You are basic, as my first drafts Take a dirtnap, I drew you owe me in advanced, auto part time shifty We the source, you defenses Audiences authentically, authentically creativity with a smirk, here, your magic trick It won't work here without a gang inland You closer to big water, surf & splash Don't it sting when we lose on home turf? Work Everybody think they chosen until dirt Break the curse Throw a spiral and you whistle like a nerf Y'all smiggity smacked, walking cumulonimbus Set bar o'er heads, Puny humans don’t risk it One clap shatters drones Dismantle - trackers phones Party goer sniff bottle cap corona viruses? Mask Off Sierra Nevada Seagulls Cease & Resist Outta sight, outta mantra Odd job, Hell - Block bar hop Tipsy wine crop, circle back Designated driver hammered, stop Call a lyft? Laugh it off, drift Hometown ghost town Blacks bought it since 'fore I enter apartment, wipe my fucks on da carpet Don’t dismiss fickle marked up pictures Voice hot air balloon basket, uplifted Torch switched it Took the land from Lyricist gobbled by earth crumbled on brioche We so late C.P. Time - need a break You are ash in the tray Race track lapping, we don’t play Chakra on winter crunch Bandanas on gallop Chasing getaway trains Kill it without referencing what’s cool to say Use Imagination Bone pick pronto Wrote songs about smoking y’all 'fore I ever smoke fronto/ Swoop on porch - like condor, you are squirrel lunch Land where the trees don’t lynch US Red - and blue, see limitless stars Tran-scen-den-tal Guppy nibble at flakes Surface see a quake See you spitting yo pain That’s why u made it to the page You know we need a change Not a martyr I cope Call ya over to smoke Drank a water & wrote Think lucid in poem

Home is where people know your name Choose words wisely or die: lincoln Mind leaking velvet curtains streaming Catch needs if you holding change No paranoia creep in, Compete harmonies by skin of teething Kill em with kindness, abolish demons Places you never seen before Rap to arenas of Black peepas Say nigger without thinking you mocking me Dissolve ya plot, We all we got, Evaporate ya zapping plans frozen Rejection is a stepping stone I eat your beef with my resilience Dream "Ame!", the beam "Ago!" Jokester genius before you awarding, protect your neck You don’t live with a bucket list regret Storyteller touch you deeper than erotic masseuse Always uncouth Rush the opposition is you knocking the boots with grief Touch my lock one more time I go ballistic BOOM Poetry Slam championship clenched Will I stay? Will scram? Liberated Lover Last Finalist I run to stand up for my rights Constitutional moonwalk, in italics Illegible signatures ravaged Don’t accept disadvantage Tepid temperature fetish This is a tissue for who wept on my brilliance Leave industry for underground RVALiens cherished your misery perished What’s whipped cream without a cherry? Play music and play the game to survive paint ya demise Life is a movie, this a show, you look like a bigot, bro I don’t have politics, unless they come with residuals Family trip to winter resort, Family trips to Disney World I don’t recall Surround you are apart of whiskey porch Chatter laughs adult trouble maker music No laws applied in saying what I got to say about the world around me Is it the fight with the night sky resemble stirring black coffee, amazing swirls No rush A must They sus I trust You clutch Stay up One touch They cut You fucked Now what? So what? Abduct you interrupted Thinking smooth I’m winking at you Look into my eyes, you see a rough mood Get your words ready Make a homerun together Drink the water walk on wave The rumor buoy to save you They petty they should’ve fucked up the business Naw... the good weather … Screen went black so I can’t rap about it again when I tap it I’m outta this shit, I’m tired of the rapture [Laughter] You seen that shit happen?! You seen it happen right? Yo! That’s That’s [Oh My God!] Yo! that’s it I gotta go That’s it!
