lyrics

Yo, check it, Eugene here to wreck it
Got people asking questions ‘fore I even drop a record, forget it
My mind, body, soul are adjacent
Came up from the basement, speak in volumes but don’t say shit
Sick of the complacence, living your life makeshift
Chalk upon the pavement will wash away when it’s raining
So Eugene came to salvage everything that you have wasted
Picked up all the pieces and became these lames replacement
When you hear the uncontrollable flow you’ll know
I’m puttin’ up a fight while harnessing the light
Been raw since 92, it’s true, just ask Dwight
I’m urying these bullies underneath the Little Tikes
Most days and nights, I find I don’t even feel human
Stuck inside a world that’s been corrupted and polluted
Lately I’m feeling trapped like Truman
But now I gotta break out of this bubble and start blooming


These days it’s hard to put your faith in the most high
Ya only keep a few homies but see most die
People tell you that they love you and it feels fine
Turn around just to show you it was all lies

All lies

And my future don’t depend on acceptance of the messages I send
I’m finna ascend from the moment that it’s penned
Truest from the 2-6 til the moment that I’m dead
Let’s take it back to summer warmth when the game changed course
On June 4th when a sinner was born, already scorned
Mom and daddy torn, until they’re forced to split
Made a kid learn quick how to stretch the stick
Now ya cringe ‘cause I flow too honest and sick
Ain’t no tarnishing it, I lay my varnish on thick
Once the surface is stripped, I’ll bust a bigot to bits
Eat the remains with some Rits and turn em back into shit
I’m telling everyone and everything the way that it is
Most of you dicks make me wish I had six slits in my wrists
I’ll persist and you’ll believe it when I’m winning at this
And all at once my messy start ended up making sense

These days it’s hard to put your faith in the most high
Ya only keep a few homies but see most die
People tell you that they love you and it feels fine
Turn around just to show you it was all lies

Aye, check it… yeah

My origin is where the floor begins, recordings ripped from dusty bins
I lay my mind on top of them, leaving nothing but sediment
Others posers, impotent, synonyms for sensitive,
I said it then I meant it, like how I said I’ma wreck this shit
I bring a feeling that is ominous, my confidence is bottomless
Rather choose consciousness over cockiness
My dominance crushes a ponderous populace
That’s the consequence of seeing not believing the obvious
Lines stemming from mind of a genuine novelist
Written with precision my vision sits in my documents
Promise this won’t be the last time that I rhyme on my Dahmer shit
All American psycho but looking nice like a pharmacist
Take a hit, tell every bit of my Tales From The Crypt
I flipped the script and ripped these other phony rappers in fifths
They get skipped, gave em a kick and now they rest in oblivion
I don’t need your opinion, I came, I conquered, I’m Gideon
You really shouldn’t even try to challenge me, I’m living life so callously
We don’t have decent alchemy ‘cause I’m not from your galaxy
I plan my shit out tactfully and pull it off so casually
I got em thinkin happy things while singing ‘bout these tragedies
If these pages made it to stages
They’d shine throughout the ages, bringing a heinous amount of chaos
But lately I feel like all purity is decaying
Not being famous if the only way is a seance

These days it’s hard to put your faith in the most high
Ya only keep a few homies but see most die
People tell you that they love you and it feels fine
Turn around just to show you it was all lies

Turn around just to show you it was all lies
