[Intro]
Yeah, it's Illogic
Columbus, Ohio
Lucid Optics on the beat
It's that Lucid Logic, uh huh
Bars and lessons, ya know what I'm saying? Uh huh
Uh, now, uh, a little early, little early
Ha ha, here we go, check
[Verse]
Now ride to the rhythm
I'm just hoping you can catch the vibe of the rhythm
'cause there's no guarantees that we'll survive in this system
Built for our demise, no surprise it's difficult for us to take the
Time to listen to the cries of the jungle
Kneading that dough to bake just to see the cookie crumble leaders take many shapes, some are live, some are humble
Either way there's a struggle
Now as you guide through oblivion, embrace the weight on my shoulders
Miss me with all the sentiments, avert the ominous with an obvious godly temperament
Slovenly sloppy simpletons are missing the point
So I keep dodging the mirages that they seek to anoint
I'm staying high off the baseline and this is the joint I'm saying
Yo, the revolution won't be televised or posted on your Twitter feed
They sterilize our voices 'cause we microwave our dignity
Tired of clones and robots
And those building balconies off the back of they glass houses to sit and throw rocks
Was 15 when AC taught me the no-nots
Unearthed dreams while speaking atop this soap box
I live for the moment
The alchemy of the future's a recipe so potent
The cusp of greatness, it's a lonely place I've noticed
Depending on your focus
They target our children so they're immune to sex and violence dancing across their eyelids
Resuscitating chaos while our inner peace demises
Reality's a perfect dish but most just won't try it
It's a purpose in your diet or be silent
