Son said daddy whatcha doin?
Said Sparrow I'm just using
The limitations of my public education
To bring forth more hidden information
We rock the spot across all stations
Reach far out to every generation
Can't find time for contemplation
Living alone in an alien nation
But get hit with a sick, slick lyric
That's it, shit sticks first minute you hear it
Tonight's the night we unite the five elements
Wild winds spread in the four directions
Filtering fact from fiction, be brave, clench fists
Hand of death from cradle to the grave
But before quitting time, let me take it away

Headbanger like Greg Louganis
Make my day and I'll make ya famous
Too many tried and failed to tame us
Don't point your finger this way to blame us
Can't contain the creative contagion
Won't complain copycats start plagiarizing
Lounging in the lair where the dragon was slain
Made it to this moment music moved ya again
Doo doo mic step in the distortion
Takes a tortured contortionist to make it as an artist
And the industry's extortionists
I blame poor performance on rich record execs
Chop machete 'pon their pencil necks
Redirect all the royalty checks
Burn down the town with no partiality
Babylon's sinkable, let's make it reality

Pegleg'd since the twelfth grade
Didn't drop out but didn't graduate
No black robed ritual took place
Never allowed to let them indoctrinate
Welcome you to the LBC
Where L.A. piss poison pours out to sea
We float on wondrous clouds of combusted weed
More dope than Chong ever toked with Cheech
Picture Ricky like I'm the fourth Beastie
Boy, he blows! white Wailer like Lee Jaffe
Homespun, handmade, hardcore, harmony
Move crowds ceremonial mastery
Roll my own like Patsy Stone
All alone going so low
Old sixties Chevy's hitting hydro
Know thy soul before attempting mic control
Out on a high note, but hey what do I know?

No hooks, no chorus, no gags, no gimmicks
All straight spit inspired soul fire pyre's pinnacle
Surrounded by shit sounds so hired and clinical
Sedated in place, medicated by chemicals
Must many more witness this police brutality
Pork bellies broadcast no accountability
Calling cops corrupt is redundancy
It's in the job description, fundament of government you see
Hit the glitch on 7th, hip hop heads butt on 6th st 
Punk rock squat on 5th, talk to some dread on 4th st 
All try to survive alive and get along in our anarchy
Scream deep into the abyss with me
Shoot into the stratosphere, utmost atmosphere
Above all the suffering, up here last suppering
Cooly duppy conquering, end into begin again
Fly forever with me through eternal infinity
