Beauty In Decay
[Intro: Eyekonique]
Dedicated
The vulture culture
This is the beauty in decay
One love

[Verse 1: Eyekonique]
Amassed at midnight, hoodied up misfits under city tunnels
With luminous lights, vigilant eyes for the blue spies
Silence in the yard, smell of colours in the pitch black
Movement on a train track
Silver or full colour crews will paint that
Gradually corrode the metal from the days buff
Beauty in decay, how can you hate that?
Beauty can portray straight from a spray cap, with wildstyles, characters, panels, tangled up tags
They can mind-fuck while deep slumber keeps the city blunt towards the vibrant, urban implantantion
Memorable stories are daily created
So listen to the frequencies channels of police
Writers have contrived to escape the heat, with a quick fleet
Once again, the pigs have felt defeat
Beauty in decay, it's a vision
It's not the way you dress, or what you see on television
Open up your doors and get active
Interact with the landscape: bud, it's time for action
Hard-core, soft-core, legal or illegal
Find your style and enter stealth mode, like a rapid eagle, like a rapid eagle
[Chorus: Eyekonique]
Beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that was never meant to entertain
Beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that will fade away
I said beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that was never meant to entertain
Beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that will fade away

[Verse 2: Linkone]
It's the beauty in decay, fresh metal in the yard dirty sinners checking out that lonely train and, in a cold winter's day
Security is having a lay, TV on, dreaming away
Movement in the background
There is no time to waste, steady hands and smooth pace
Layering the letters and a character's face, so
"Mate, are you finished?"
"Yeah, let's tag the face, photos taking place
It's all cool: it didn't end up with a chase..."
It's the beauty in decay, endless hours in the buses and the trains
Occupying the eye, from the pavements to the walls and the rooftops up high, like a fully focused spy
I always looked up to the people that can dedicate a life for passion, passionate nights a dozen
Only respecting the people that put passion over fashion. Remember: it's not what you do, it's how you do it
And why you do it
Man, if you love it, there is no need to prove it
Oath crew, it's my movement, if you think I'm foolish
Find what fits yourself and leave me to it
'Cuz it's the beauty in decay, 'cuz it's the beauty in decay
[Chorus: Eyekonique]
Beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that was never meant to entertain
Beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that will fade away

I said beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that was never meant to entertain
Beauty, beauty in decay
Beauty that will fade away

[Verse 3: Eyekonique]
'Cuz it's the beauty in decay
Beauty that was never meant to entertain, even though it does
Big up to all the crews that linger in the alleys
Finding spots that no one else has
Big up to all the youth that have just started and are willing to abuse the system
Schooling didn't give them the needed wisdom
Graffiti is a big adventure to be dwelled in
Egos and attention, skills on an erection
Gaining respect through dedication
Beauty in decay, a dirty culture, that's amazing
