[Verse 1] I'm spazzing out, spraying contaminants haphazardly With my face in my hands, head down screaming woe, is me I can't believe I've come this far, seriously It's such a shocker to think about by me Back in the day, I had nothing to show for myself Now I've got a mixtape that I'm ready to put on the shelf So look out for it when it's dropped into your lap So I can finally prove to you just how well this white boy can rap [Chorus] Watch out, I'm ready to breach the sky, here I come now I said watch out, I said watch out Smoke And Mirrors was never clearer, and I'm in the zone I said I'm in the zone, I said I'm in the zone Watch out, I'm ready to breach the sky, here I come now I said watch out, I said watch out Smoke And Mirrors was never clearer, and I'm in the zone I said I'm in the zone, I said I'm in the zone [Verse 2] This is just for me to vent how I feel inside my mind And I want you to know, so that's why I feel inclined To blow the roof off this whole entire planet But you don't have to worry, it's okay, don't panic Maybe if you're lucky you'll all survive this delivery But that's all I've got to say, you can click on, for realsies But one more thing that I've got to say before you go Is that in the near future, M-O-M is a name that you'll know

[Verse 1] Feelin' out my way into this viscous cycle it's so lonely As I look around and see the ashes of when they called me a phony I'm crying inside, no there's just no way for you to console me I look above and pray to God that I can be just a little holy No, there's no way to break into the mind that I hold so closely So many have tried before, it's a steel door and I have no cronies Nobody around me to see me through this struggle, no, no homies But still I refuse to lay down, no I will not be a one trick pony Annoyed by the way our world tackles the problems that are so prominent I just want to throw up this twisted philosiphy, yeah, just vomit it Clear out my system of the things that they told me when they tried to make me less cognitive And wanted to dumb me down so they could cloud my vision with their smog iniative Unh, I'm here to be a beacon of light into the darkness of the world in which we live And to reach out to give those who need barkskin as a means to be less sensitive I'm mad that so many of the heroes we look up to don't even try to serve The common good that we should enforce, c'mon now, gather the nerve [Chorus] See me for who I am Don't just take me for a fool This is my last stand No, I will not shelter you [Verse 2] You thought I was done here? That was the first mistake that you made I'm here to stay and provide these words as my twisted serenade Your ears will bear witness to what it is that I have to say And at the end of it all, I hope this song can help make your day I'm not a monster for standing up for the things that I believe in But all around me it seems evident that the truth is now in open season I just can't help but mourn for the loss of morality caused in our lives So many good people shot down painlessly who now cease to strive For the things that can make the world we live a better place, it's evil That no one seems to care any more, so I want to lead an upheaval Starting today, I want each and every one of you in on this plan I can't do this on my own, I'm going to need every last helping hand Because I believe that people as a whole can be saved from this system But they have to want to break free, we can only do so much to save them I know that this isn't going to be easy for any of my recruits But if we can change within ourselves, then maybe people will begin to follow suit So I implore you to ask yourself these questions that I'm laying out What is it that makes the world so proud? Look what I'm talking about In this day and age, my generation believes they can have anything they want Without any respect for those who give it to them, hanging by like a sconce And they don't understand why their child is disrespectful and never happy Well, if you raised them right, they wouldn't be in the streets cursing at Pappy Don't get mad at me 'cause I see my peers for what they are Just believe that your own pride and selfish repertoire has blinded you Yeah, Mind Over Matter [Chorus] See me for who I am Don't just take me for a fool This is my last stand No, I will not shelter you [Bridge] How long do you expect me to stand back and watch this unfold? The world today is full of horrid stories untold [Verse 3] Finally, I want to discuss the moral of the story I'm telling you You'll be happy when you realize deep within yourself what you can do So don't give up hope, fellow survivor, I wrote this song just for you When life and haters shove you down, get back up and you can make it through So realize the validity of these words that I'm speaking now You can do anything you set your mind to, don't you ever doubt And when you're finally sitting at the top of the world and looking down I hope you'll remember me, the one who helped to show you how Mind Over Matter

[Intro] Yeah This is Smoke And Mirrors, y'all Rrrrhh, what's up? Go [Verse 1] Check it, I'm throwing in a touch of difference up in the Smoke I got the stiff rhymes to make you green, but no artichoke Better step back when I spit, can't you feel the heat coming in? I'm gonna scale this rock face, you can call me Alduiin Hah, get it? That was a joke straight from Helgen I got so many solid bars coming at you, you'll believe you're in jail again Best believe I'm not letting up when I get in my zone I'm harmonious on the mic, so it's time to give a dog his bone And you better fetch, dawg, because around here, you're unwanted You've only got so long, like you've only got so much time allotted And then it's game over, your rings have now all depleted Health is low, so prepare yourself to get defeated Citations needed, when you grab the mic and say you're the greatest When you sound like a desperate woman off of Craigslist I'm ill, I need a medic for the sickness I spit Now everyone on this album is infected, get over it [Chorus] This is my time, and I will not fall I don't care if the haters are appalled You know that I rip every single bar I spit So play my hybrid on full blast, as soon as I'm done with it [Verse 2] I'm chopping up this track, so put up a Road Closed sign NASCAR ain't got nothing on me, I refuse to cosine You're across from me, and my friends are right by me Like the triangle I threw in there, bet you can't find it, see D-E-F-G, H-I-JK-ing? Not until I D-I-E So disregard me, unless you wanna see how real I'll be It's elementary, dear Watson, so bear with me While I lay down my battle plans like World War Three [Chorus] [Verse 3] This last verse will bring you to your knees, Catholic services It's taking time for me to reveal to you what my purpose is But even though I'm different, I'm not stopping to go So you'll hear my screams when I finally explode

[Intro] Mind Over Matter About to flow this sick rhyme into yo ear Haha, yeah Check it [Verse 1] Shooting up the flow I'm killing it, swiss cheese Haters saying I got no skills, pfft, bitch please Take a step back, unless you wanna get burned by me I'm flowing so hard, yet I make this shit look easy You're in the dark, you can't even hold a candle to me All my fans claimin' that I'm such a sight to see But I don't see it, I'm just doing what I do, clearly So talk what you will, I have no fucks to give abundantly But I will light up this track, so you can call me kerosene And I'm gonna blow up as if I were soaked in gallons of gasoline Strike a match and light my fuse to watch me defy serene When I blow, I'll be purple with rage, like an aubergine I have a vast vocabulary, call me a Webster's dictionary I speak with no filter, yeah, my mouth makes no coffee [Chorus] It's time to rhyme, so pick up the mic now You think I'm sick? Hah, like how I'm a virus and I'm infecting this rap game I'm here to fuck shit up, I don't need fame Dawg [Verse 2] Verse two and I'm already inclined to drop like a falling tree Yelling timber at anyone foolish enough to think I'm not challenging I'm dangerous when I'm in my zone, but for me there's no penalty I'm taking this to your brain, surely temples, no Heidi You can't take a hit of me, I'm like bad marjorie I see your mouth fall open, is this really happening? Yeah, it is, and I can see by your eyes I can tell you're trembling Unlike all these other rappers I'm real, pedigree I have these rappers waiting on me hand and foot, mani-pedi And I'm charging my cannon to full blast, man, get ready When I finally break, I'm not holding back, I'm damaging And there's gonna be nothing left of you like I'm scavenging

[Intro] Who am I? Wait, I hear music Let me grab a mic [Verse 1] You know that I ain't right brained whenever I come around Because of what I say in every verse I'm dropping on the ground This is Smoke And Mirrors, but I'm not gonna tell a lie to y'all Honest Abe in the verse, as if I'm fighting Confederation Don't yawn, because I'm not ready to put you to sleep yet Keep your eyes open, so you can behold my humble covenant Between me, myself, and I, a plea of my insanity I dropped For The Kings as a beacon, a royal decree To my loyal subjects out there trying to fight the scourge Of hypocrisy spoonfed to us by a society that's emerged From the deepest pit somewhere out there in the galaxy And my home is the asylum, because difference is insanity [Chorus] You can't take me alone And you're out there on your own [Verse 2] Did you really believe I'd just turn a blind eye to your cause? Well guess again, you idiots, I'm tearing you down like Jaws I'm tired of you all making all of our problems seem so small So step back before I blow my gasket, dawg I'm appalled It's sick how many good minds are corrupted I'm just a product of my generation, but I disrupted The flow of fury and fallacies ferociously creating ferals Dangerously degenerating us into despair, woah Terrorists with atrocities tend to tread towards contamination So spell it speedily out sporadically for specification Alliteration, to put it out there, just what I've got to say If you don't understand me, that's fine, my mind is insane [Chorus] You can't take me alone And you're out there on your own [Bridge] I'm the one you have to stand up to And you know that's not something you wanna do [Verse 3] So Imma break it down to a level that you should understand I'm trying to save a ton of lives before this gets out of hand The ones who lead you aren't gonna hold your hands I'm not magical, hell, I've spent five years just looking for a band If we want to change, we have to change, not just sit around We need to stand up for what we believe, even in a little town So don't let your heart drop, I'm not a classic heartthrob But I will reach out until I grab a hand to pull me on top And when I'm up there, I'll be sure to remember my followers Who were always there to help me rise above these rafters I'm on the roof of my game now, but I ain't Santa's reindeer Inside my head is a runaway train, and I'm ready to commandeer So I'm leaving you with this one message to take to your heart Never ever let your light go out, or the dark'll tear you apart I know from experience, I was never ever sadder Than the days before I stood up and became Mind Over Matter
