sardonichawk Some songs on this album took me a few listens to be like "OH! This is fire af!" but when I got around to them, they easily became some of my favorites. Favorite track: Sword Syndicate (ft. Daichi Yamamoto & Dot.Kai Prod. By J.O.T.B.).

All on the line this my last stand after this the clan disband S-rank stealthy with a mission blade over heart katana in hand the decision been made to strike at night stay out of sight in the shadows to run that fade catch a nigga for betrayal that he made this bed so he lay in it shit we both stared into the abyss but you blinked what you think was really gonna happen? corruption greed saw sensei's heart start blacken mistakes he made for the code have to put him down. soul crushed for me to do so he like Clouseau clueless thoughts hidden I left no clue so I move into the darkness to create another carcass terminating with precision never raising their suspicion geared up all black A creep I'm all that shurikens caltrops katana got that suit up like hazmat or a royal flush Buddha palm cause harm you get touched we don't bluff clan ideology no apology the look out sleeping it's time to move cold December the embers dance in the fireplace that light up room slip passed without a sound don't want to have to put him in a tomb casually avoid casualties unnecessary fatalities Tenchu here for the blasphemy whoa Can't believe you make the clan serve a foul lord no delay sensei pay for this discord in his study reading scrolls reclaiming our honor with his life is the reward He seems strangely relaxed neko no te tatami mats flicker of candle light and dense air hand on my hilt approach from the rear closer and closer muscles tense the moment upon us I can sense the blade unsheathed his head I seek grip tight sword high ronin ninja samurai before the blade and his neck meet he whispers you’re sloppy in your technique 何? 君甘いなぁ 今日お前にちゃんと見せてやる

[Intro: Devin Morrison] [Verse 1: Gizmo] Bible says love your neighbor like you love yourself My neighbor don't love me Do good to them even if it hurt your health Warm heart for your enemies Mathew tripping 2017 been telling me Trust no bitch trust no nigga People only rocking with you when there's self interest Cynicism in this pessimist I let it go let it go though All my fam who don't care to keep in touch Since we blood I shed it all let it flow let it flow slow Shake it up visions from my crystal ball slowly fall Future cold like a snow like a snow globe Swear to God I hear God is love I see love in EVOLution too A callous heart's love is dissonant this the love I give to you [Hook: Devin Morrison & Gizmo] It's the smooth love we dream of It's the smooth love that we love It's the smooth love we dream of It's the smooth love that we love It's the smooth love Everybody need that love unconditional Beyond something physical that reign indivisible In this age that is digital love the last miracle [Bridge: DEVIN & Gizmo] Baby when you gone I'm feeling Like my body's run a fever But I had to up and leave ya Commitment issues runs much deeper Humans are such selfish creatures Knew deep down you were keeper But still I played lost in my ways It all stems back from in the day [Verse 2: Gizmo] When my moms left me as a youth Growing up I didn't know her (I still don't) Pops shipped me out and left wounds that rain Heavy on heart like Noah's arc Torn apart I know neither of them now start To forgive stubbornness won't let it happen That's too real Yo love God love the earth love the father love the mother Love siblings that we share love yourself love each other Love the places that you haven't been yet Love Everyday every sunrise sunset Love all the struggles faced they only make you better It cannot be measured love like a vendetta Cause once you live a life of all love It reciprocates back love what we made of [Hook]

[Verse 1] Stay sedated boy I need me another cup Tall can strong zeros help me level up One day I'll figure out what I'm running from 2 sides to the coin and the pendulum Who the mortal that be staring in the mirror? Skies grey but it'll get clearer Imma a lost boy damn call me Peter Pan Stay fly smoke blunts so I never land Left the place called home now I want to know Could you tell me more what you have in store Took some of my friends when's the journeys end? Out my comfort zone forcing me to grow Could this be your plan? Let's talk man to man Break it down to me help me overstand Why the obstacles? Near impossible Twist to make me miss please just answer this [Hook] Will you take me home? Tell me will I find home Will you take me home? Tell me when I'll find home Will you take me home? Tell me will I find home Will you take me home? Yea [Verse 2] Rolling Stones rock on gather no moss GI Joe snake eyes on the dice toss That's just the way that life is pray my legacy timeless Try to live my life righteous with no bias and discover truth See some bad femmes naked too Honestly I want settle down find a wifey I can go home to like whoa Trini girl with a thick back that don't look bad Not concerned with the knick knacks or getting my bag Hold me down give everything you have Still my everything love that's conquering Doubt and jealousy love me breathlessly Stand right by your side prove my loyalty Cohesive bond formed that's our chemistry Always down to earth just like gravity Time and space transform twist reality Stars moons and earth Move beyond the hurt You're the lock and key Let me know my worth [Hook] [Outro]
