Constant

ch.
I am not the most, I'm beyond on it
Center stage, everything orbits like comets
I know that's too far, but if I'm being honest
I know I'm still more than a footnote or comment
Check the catalog and respect the content
Maybe give that a blog if it's not dauntin'
Either way I move along, spit otaku sonnets
Others come and go, while I remain a constant
v1.
Joined a lot of discords that I'm never gonna post in
Gotta a lot friends bored that I can't blame for ghostin
Others actually ghosts and they weigh upon me daily
These shinigami go in and forever assail me
Sure that all the nerds bored, I'm not the most nerdcore
As in not most of nerdcore: I just let my words soar
Seven bars deep and I'm sendin what these weebs hate
Bars without references, my preference is an endless eight
Tired of inspiration being entwined with tragedy
Bars made of anxiety just enshrined depravity
Peers try to tell me that this isn't how it had to be
But if I shy from society, perspicacity atrophies
Not in lost top 10s and never been in big 3s
Yet not once stoppin', uncensored no fig leaves
Fudanshi garbage man, never copping big pleas
Try to honor senseis past, yet I can't ever teach please
v2.
Left to wonder where the truth is, whose more useless
Separate the Hercules, the Jupiters and Zeuses
The Evas and Gundams from the Franxx yeah lets do this
Gunbuster vs. Guntank? you know whose losin'
Progressives and Alternatives from Classics
Chobits, Dear S, Hand Maids - it's all just plastics
Sailor Scouts & Sakura & Madoka all rally
But even Creamy Mamis need a Magic User Sally
More than like ten uh, owe a debt to Utena
But Dear Brother's tattooed on that like it's henna
Fruits Basket and Ouran provide massive gasps
But that melodrama needs Versailles & Glass Mask
It's so transparent: who's children, who's parents
Who's in it for the art, whose motives are errant
Who's Gendo Ikari, who's Shinji, who's Rei
Hard to say who's good, and who's out to betray

Otaku Drill Couture
02:05
|

ch.
Asuka n' Ayanami
Epic team, Epic team
Otaku Drill Couture
COSPA and Book-Off stores
Young Animal deplored
One your idols adored
v.
Ultra K back
Ita drip killin the simp chasing clout over dreams
Soldiers attack
Otaku thrillin' the tint laced without any seams
Fujoshi tract
Got all the fudanshi and mojyos supporting the team
Can't hold us back
Stop any posse who'd no go or hoard all our cream
Ki blasts or a bankai / gum punch givin' black eyes
Death notes but I can't die / grey wings but I still fly
Don't need anything tucked / I'm Undead with the Unluck
50 Cent plus a Young Buck / beam sword leave ya dumbstruck, ay
It ain't my fault ya not popular / you never check ya thermometer
Tryin' to play at philosopher / but that ain't knowledge ya droppin' there
Some embrace curses I break 'em / some couldn't face what I've taken
Enemies thinkin' "we'll shake him" / they would be gravely mistaken
Many could hate it but none can pretend
To carry my weight like I'm Spike at the end
I bring those hundreds while they're breakin' tens
I'm on the hunt and they're takin' defense
Battle Royale and I'm takin' it all
I'm nobody's pal and I'm gettin' appalled
Newtypes and Saiya-jin tremblin' scared
Ten thousand years early and so unprepared

Broke Weeb
02:06
|
|||
ch.
you a broke weeb if ya cannot buy ya anime
you a broke weeb if for manga you don't ever pay
you a broke weeb if ya cannot cop a crunchy sub
do ya love the art if ya never throwin money once
v.
i can give some of y'all passes
cause you don't live where's there access
all media for your masses
lacking the girls the glasses
but others got plenty of options
got lotsa cash to be droppin
but never a Blu-ray popped in
nor a subscription once locked in
simpin for e-girls twitchin
only fans too in the mission
eagerly flexin with bits then
for 2d money goes missing
piratin their favorite pirates
irony clear through the iris
keeping their drip very stylish
directors work til they dying
guess ya don't care if ya faves live
never supporting creatives
even when anime saved ya
couldn't spend money save it
really it hits me the hardest
artists out stealing from artists
y'all oughta see out the farthest
instead ya defile and tarnish
i know ya fan base's massive
got the cash to be proactive
but I guess it ain't attractive
so y'all keep acting so passive
animators in the struggle
all their dreams getting muffled
y'all could make everything better
if y'all just broke off some cheddar

Childish Neets
02:29
|
|||
ch.
childish neets seeking purity
underlining epic immaturity
growing up they don't have the courtesy
they stay digging downward fervently
v.
never put the toys away
leave it all exposed how the boys'll play
couldn't find a joy today
endlessly disclose loudly ploys delayed
wonder why they never blow
never double check to try a better code
never water what they sow
cannot grow despite starts on fertile roads
stuck in their ways can't admit it
always on socials bullshittin'
scrappin' but they're never winnin'
antisocial but won't quit it
energies leading to nothin'
aggression an act always frontin'
tweets only thing they're dumpin'
drywall the only thing punched in
backwards to hades, path gettin' hazy
hatred infinite yet ever so lazy
inner light fading, never once chasing
suffocate under the weight of the pacing
so disconnected, love misdirected
trapped in their lies, feelin' ever dejected
poison infected, mental insect men
cannot survive once they turn into weapons
|

Clickbait
02:12
|
|||
ch.
I don't destroy, I create
and I don't toy with the hate
fall for a trick can't relate
I never click on the bait
stay watchin, eyes poppin
lies hop in, I stop 'em
stay watchin, eyes poppin
lies hop in, I stop 'em
v.
trolls all controllin the movement
manipulate what you're doin
they wanna make you a product
that is the goal of the project
hijack subliminal bias
bending the facts in the lies yes
they take on many disguises
until they bare their incisors
actors decentralized global
ML decoding your photos
playing like they're in your local
sewing divisions the focal
they're flooding specific mentions
moving the bits of dissension
accelerate the infection
ensuring bigotry's let in
turning seeds of worry into nightmares to control
burn and bleed then scurry into night where their one goal
is to manufacture consent for their profit from terror
your rights being redacted, damaged past repair there
and there's no more heroes, none left to protect you
let it burn like Nero, they'll probe and dissect you
nothing to left connect to, the network's all co-opted
every redirect to their scams; gotta murk to stop it

Chase Figures
02:13
|
|||
intro.
spitting fire as it's turning light into dark
cause life is more slices than tournament arcs
segments where connections are tenuous
difficult to split daydreams from memories
ch.
Used to chase figures / Now I chase figures
Kill La Kill these bars / like I ate Trigger
Gotta grow or die / through these cold winters
Gotta hustle hard / be the sole winner
v1.
used to win raffles, now I'm winning hackathons
insights help find what to take action on
best company value singing all my praises
until I come around simply asking for my raises
suddenly the tune changes acting like strangers
so I return the favor and tell em see ya later
if my ambitions pass what they're dreaming after
I'll exit stage left migrate to greener pastures
cause the green's what I'm after, ichiban factor
every greens necessary to fight these bad actors
wish these things were actually debatable
but the cycle's endless and deeply insatiable
so i play the diagonal in absence of verticals
patient and merciful as I advance to terminals
don't want to derail in accident fiery
gotta the mind the details until I'm a retiree
v2.
coder looking for coda that's a semicolon
flooded like I'm NOLA or Tohoku with these big emotions
Looking for finales or exit doors from borin dreams
Never made it to the valley, stuck indoors like quarantine
sitting on the outside looking inward not upward
reflecting back on senpai with manga filled cupboards
adjacent lanes busy cringing with a snappy diss
past chasing clout, I just want one room of happiness
shonen jumps shojo to become seinen
or maybe they recognize that's not the way then
but nakayoshi smiles fade as cookies crumble
friendships fall apart over betrayals, stumbles
the drama never changes in anyway but the scale
so maybe staying outside it all let truths prevail
but frankly I cannot buy into that slow plan
cause I wanna solve the case, detective conan

Sound
02:00
|
|||
ch.
so the pressure's coming down
coming down, coming down
bringing censure on the clowns
on the clowns, on the clowns
didn't wanna hear the sound
hear the sound, hear the sound
but it's time to come around
come around, come around
v1.
I'm feeling washed, that I'll concede
I'm really more Beck, than Oliver Tree
Never the boss, too colic and twee
Couldn't connect, but apologies
Aren't in my lane, I never forgive
Expecting the same, until I don't live
Everyone's friends, until there's a stress
No longer pretend, there isn't duress
(1/4 start triplets)
Deriding all hagiography
All of the nonsense impossibly
Imbued throughout all our history
Made to perpetuate misery
Distractions, idle frivolity
Hollow facades of equality
Coverin bigoted policies
Now it's revealed for all to see
v2.
Everything's fresh, until it repeats
Until the reset, loops 'round the streets
Container reloads, no data's intact
The history known, cleared outta the stack
Reality's facts, too fragile like glass
The angels should laugh, at how we all act
Can't handle the truth, as distance from youth
Grasp getting loose, on what we should do
Gotta face it with detachment
Understand what's been enacted
Motive for constant protraction
Denying mass satisfaction
Keeping the masses divided
Separate classes reside in
Areas governed from hidin
Realize that's why we're fightin
|

8. |
Map Reduce
02:06
|
|||
ch.
map it back and filter it
another off kilter trip
reduce until I'm killin it
until I've got my fill of it
sort it out and organize
in the cloud like soarin skies
regressions on these csvs
I move it outward p2p
v.
I am not a good escape, no reveries in bedsheets
Only drill downs I know are SQL & spreadsheets
But that doesn't mean that comedy's the feel
Just means no Baudrillard, it's not hyper real
Simulcra actors isn't what I've ever been after
No additions or filters, except for effects in masters
Shout out favorite fantasies, but never as an escape
But to impound reality, put it on the disc and tape
Still ultra to the klystron, ultra with no ice on
Still keeping all eyes on, the one to roll the dice on
Production all nice son, still keeping the lights on
With Typescript & Python, I test, commit, write on
Yeah, I'm too unfocused cause my gifts are too plentiful
Could've made 4 or 5 of me, really that incredible
Everything you try to be, I've already sold discrete
A code elite with Shojo Beats, brain's on Code Lyoko steeze (huge)

Full Cycle
02:13
|
|||
ch.
all of this slander and libel
everyone talking in trifles
waves wash 'em all out tidal
jugular, heart, every vital
all of this slander and libel
everyone talking in trifles
me I stay rollin' - full cycle
full cycle, full cycle
v.
full cycle - gotta keep rollin and makin the moves, ay
full cycle - gotta keep holdin & stickin to grooves, ay
full cycle - target on lock never let outta view, ay
it's vital - to stick with ya nakama, stay with ya crew, ay
stay ride or die for ya dudes - real is imbued - yeah never lie keep it true
color of that'll shine through - even if rude - people'll love how you do
energy creates a space - a better place - enable others to face
others may dare to deface - attack the base - but they're unable chase
structure so effortless - upward it floats
embrace so massive - while cowards build moats
function so effervesce - hard not to gloat
faceless and passive - cannot even cope
the commentariat ever enthralled
new generations all echo the call
no one can bury it, it shall never stall
no hesitation as challenges fall
gatekeepers all turning tail now
heart breakers all setting sail now
watch every wall being scaled now
enemies getting impaled (ow!)
ate meager y'all earning well now
card takers y'all getting scale now
got every call being trailed now
enmity vetting so stale now

Not Again
02:20
|
|||
ch.
not again, not again, not again, not again
everything getting too hot and then cold again
all of my friends - just keep on losing friends
all of my friends - just keep on losing friends
v.
can't even bury it properly
don't got the time for philosophy
all of the weight falls on top of me
all of the waits try to stop our dreams
minding my friends and connections
praying at this intersection
they can hold on to their patience
despite the dark invocations
compass maintaining direction
stay ready to make corrections
trying to balance sensations
depression pushing complacence
but it wouldn't honor the memories
wouldn't respect all the pedigree
dark side demanding self effigy
angels run to stay ahead of me
everyone stunned by events - only defence - is to regroup not relent
words fail no eloquence - no sentences - don't wanna misrepresent
attacks repeat on loop - an endless coup - struggle to build for the youth
tomorrows keep getting screwed - all we can do - is keep pursuing the truth
too many gone - but cannot stop that'd be disrespectful
too many gone - aim for the top despite falling petals
gotta hold on - because too soon we'll be back where we started
gotta hold on - only way to respect those departed

Carry The Banner
02:18
|
|||
ch.
on us now to carry the banner
on us now to move past the damage
just cause things didn't go as planned kid
got to move on the last advantage
v1.
despite taking losses, being great regardless
facing down any bosses, cool heads stay the hottest
never once gotta pause this, easy living lawless
illustrated artists, staying out the office
gotta wear influence out on sleeves
gotta relay that in our steeze
can't let it bring it down to our knees
cause the whole world out there still needs
those with the heat to bring degrees
to spark new flames and to plant new seeds
never be last of a dying breed
never hold back, no don't concede
v2.
memories try to fade - recall could betray
hidden under the shade - yeah we stall and parlay
monuments to those lost - built despite any cost
rocket ships taking off - launching true never lost
ride or die cause we write and thrive
keystrokes fly as our type survives
liars hide cause they dare not try
like to choke but the hype's outsized
outside winds leave the meek capsized
low defence as the oceans rise
our style gathers the lost inside
guidance true infinite supplies

Self-Actualization
02:26
|
|||
ch.
it seems like everyone's sellin' me
but nothin's what anyone's tellin' me
trapped in the memes and hyperbole
your dream's my daily reality
and I'm not talking celebrity
not about the class or pedigree
droppin' the things weighin' heavily
crushin' lives ever so steadily
v.
what you thirst for, that's the first or
the second door, I burst forth
hustled far, yeah I worked for it
struggled hard, didn't shirk scorin
failed once, maybe failed twice
but on the third pass, I sailed right
take a bunt, then I hail strike
took a curve fast, past the rails right
on the edge, just to make the bread
to get out my head, to escape the red
get in the green, to support the team
just to keep it clean, let it shine n' gleam
watch 'em grow, even those folks
who could not roll, wanted those smokes
keeping high hopes, even for dopes
who betrayed bros, promises broke
but me I fly under radar
and stay off the fader
I'm over the vibes of the haters
wish I could drop like cicadas
and sleep now and later
but that is never my cadence
so many trending uneven
some lost in a dreamland
some others transcendin' the seasons
never committed a treason
and keep'em all pleased and
wish could rhyme for those reasons
understand that I'm not cautious
weighing on my conscience
but yet it's hard to stay conscious
so I just keep my to mantras
from unreleased manga
with forbidden magic I conjure
wait it's just science and patience
forgoing elation
delaying my gratification
focus with hyperfixation
despite damnation
relentless with no cessation
|

Everything's Changed
02:32
|
|||
ch.
tank is on empty
everything changed
nothing distracting from pain
nothing to tempt me
everything's strange
nothing left now to be claimed
v1.
used to just watch these dystopias
now on the podium
everyone's getting load of the
nightmares that repeat forever
the ties never severed
can't fathom the futures much better
wish I could in the hide in media
admit defeat to ya
people need someone there beatin' ya
gotta push back in discussions
despite all the rushin'
to double down on a malfunction
tradition without introspection
is not a direction
it's abicating intention
the past used to be ever classic
but rose tinted glasses
gave too many bastards free passes
too many crooks in the castle
spurring little battles
too many put up with that hassle
wish I could give you the TV
and internet "me mes"
but those words ain't coming easy
v2.
I know I'm otaku til death
but sometimes the stress
means that approach is a mess
I know that I used to be mecha
and shoujo forever
but right now I'm not that clever
see all my friends in the struggle
so bars about muggles
seem like a trifle too muddled
too many are fearing the reaper
oppression a feature
cause justice was lost in a seizure
besides other folks have it covered
that's their bread and butter
maybe we don't need another
summary or a love letter
many do it better
and they have my respect forever
so I'll just flow like a river
I won't be a quitter
but follow the turns and splits where
I may be a little divergent
won't sew like a surgeon
nor care 'bout the bridges I'm burnin'
