lyrics

(Ra Imhotep)(Prelude)
To be a good artist you can't just be on the light, the side of light and be a good artist. You have to know about the dark side. You have to discover, which means to uncover, your dark side, if you're gonna become a good artist, because your dark side is gonna back at you in the form of people....They don't really teach you about your dark side. They just teach you all about the light and...the light is the final product. You gotta remember that. But, there will be no light if it wasn't for darkness. Because, all darkness is light, however in order for you to seperate it and differentiate it, you have to have knowledge. You have to be able to pierce through the fall.

(TrailBlazzor Muzik)(Hook)
My mind on the deep end I think of death frequently/
Like what is my legacy when my breathing cease/
My smile wide but my thoughts roam secretly/
Seeking out chess moves that's bright enough so my people see

(TrailBlazzor Muzik)(Verse 1)
I got...worst scenarios in mind but I ain't cynical/ Optimistically driven to thrive in a world that's sinister/ The truth you scared to face is the same one that I spit at ya/ Pressure I face daily because the tone of my physical/ This life a game, there aint no light without darkness/ Without lack, there is no motive to spark shit/ Fear ain't the issue it only is when you scared to face it/ I think of what if Barz died, fuck being evasive/ Of possibilities I nurture mental preparation/ Today's an opportunity so I remain grateful/ My failures in life teach me to reach through strife/ Embrace the struggle, cause it's a peaceful price/ Beyond skin deep, my passion is engraved/ Human so I sin but my sins was my Sensei/ In other words I used to do what my sin say/ So I expose the dark don't block it out like Dikembe/ Niggas wanna party, my niggas trynna develop one/ Politic to get it agenda hidden like skeletons/ In the closet from vultures so they won't spot it/ Like the evil bankers the difference is we good hearted/
(Bridge)
Hip-Hop a culture the hood started exposing Reagan's darkness but rapping today just a genre/ Projecting a weak image of niggas with lack of honoring full picture of living so the blind steady falling in....darkness

(Barz Damu)(Hook)
My mind on the far side, these scary thoughts passing me by/
Like I can't waste my time now I'm intact and alive/
Ponder the moment my soul is exiting flesh/
Like "did I do what I had to do" leaving with no regrets/
Extra Extra hear my subconscious/
From my mind that's freeing demons out of the dungeon/
Shit im pondering probably have 3/4s of world running/
Who can't stomach food for thought I eat at a luncheon

(Barz Damu)(Verse 2)
Sagittarius with stubborn Scorpio mindstate/
Diving deep in the darkest thoughts just to find faith/
I've died bout a million times in my fuckin mind/
So profound that Stephen King couldn't see it from fullness of his imagination......ain't it crazy/
Well just imagine you marked for death from your birth/
A melanin star whose hated for light he naturally squirt from the verbal verses disturbing the hidden hand of the Earth/
Facing the forces that wanna torture him/
As he rise and the jealous folks wanna scorch him......huh/
Scenarios running through my brain in investigation/
For solutions in hard times for preparation/
Rough tasks need a tough mind to partake in it so I put myself in dark places without escaping it/
Rose colored thought people I they faith missing/
They stand for the pretty lies so they stay tripping/
Too scared to face ugly truths so they stay timid/
Then wonder why deeper thinkers face hell and ain't grimace/
1+1=2 my nigga you get the math/
Chasing dreams equals facing fear do you get the path/
The unexpected come sneak ya and you gone live it man/
Is your mind prepared for the devil before he visit man?/
Shit is probably too deep, for the groomed sheep/
Rolling over for comfort and counting theyself back to sleep/
(Bridge)
Always been shining cause 87 a star was born/
To go reach the top of potential in midst of horror core/
The generation of crack, kids lost in crack/
So concretely we sag in streets, showing our ass/
We mad now turn mind destruction to cash cows/
Lost direction, eyes closed so we lash out/
Gotta be real cause the blind and fake is departed/
Measuring my success by the light I leak as im fighting through the......darkness

(Hook)(TrailBlazzor Muzik)
My mind on the deep end I think of death frequently/
Like what is my legacy when my breathing cease/
My smile wide but my thoughts roam secretly/
Seeking out chess moves that's bright enough so my people see
(Barz Damu)
My mind on the far side, these scary thoughts passing me by/
Like I can't waste my time now I'm intact and alive/
Ponder the moment my soul is exiting flesh/
Like "did I do what I had to do" leaving with no regrets

(LR)(Verse 3)
Fornications speak it loud...
Shadows hold the humble niggas down, till
we get the clouds
All I do is stay aroused...CROWNS... Keep me
up till the business come around,
Fade away jumpers keep me far from being
in the crowds-WOW...A hundred miles no
longer smile
Faded memories telling me I never been shit
Faded glory Wal Mart destiny to price lift
Truth be told I hate dark figure wishes, things
we stuck between left em swimming with the
fishes,
Death to this nigga- Hang his ass with his
pipe dreams-So it seems- Everything is not
beings,UH...
Shoot the sheriff Bob Marley never gave a
Fuck-The true lies the disguise and I
despise...LOVE- I don't look it in the eyes
Love found the lost souls fight with a cause
to get it back to the lost roads WHOA and so
and so
Chase waterfalls cause the pools all dried up
Everything true we'd doubt and wouldn't try it
up,
Now the dark is light and we be out to get it
brighter with all of this igniting I don't need a
flame to start a fire (Shit)
Elevators stops a at fifth floors- I need a bit
more and that's to start up my hip Core My hit
Thor Hop through the dark just to find out my
Glits Glor...Nigga gimme a bit more,
This Life is but a dream to me, In one year
imagine what it did to me-Its unreal...
Mind off the deep end uh...its more to
phathom AND bit of my success to this day I
cant imagine,
Silly rabbits gettin stuck and doofus daffy's
playing duck,
I aint iced out yet and I just slide to get the
puck...Fuck!
If anything was everything Id bite the bullet
decided to pull it now my life read the mullet,
In full it...Uh...Read between the lines little
guy, my third eye was meant to see from the
top and I aint stopping till I survive...I aint
stopping till I arrive...Fear the fucking Guy...
(x2)Hey lets get into it, Throw me on the back
of the track and lets get ignorant
