II Kings
Flashbacks
[Intro: Elusive]
I guess it's time.. I've never tried..
Here's your last chance.. to step aside..

[Verse 1: Elusive]
Cause you're fucking with a force that you can't stop, high voltage, yeah I'm amped up
But there's only one bullet left in the chamber, in other words it's my last shot
And if I'm not willing to take this chance then I never will
So I might as well just put this gun to my head right now, it's a bitter pill
But somebody's gotta swallow it, sometimes you gotta take the pain
Sometimes you gotta go with the wind, and sometimes you make it rain
Sometimes you'll run away from danger, other times you'll be waiting
With your phone on - right next to a gas pump at a fuel station, waving a naked flame
It's suicidal.. a teen's newest idol
You want flashbacks? Then just do as I do
You want to know the truth? Then look inside you
We have seen it all, you know what two I's do
So it should not surprise you, that we are this focused
All I really wanted to do when I got back behind the mic was to prove my shit's dopest
But it's hopeless, they just tip-toe us
I don't even know what I am spitting cause I haven't written anything down - misquote this
So I gotta come back with a plan, to try fix whatever happened to man
But I ain't tryna be a god, cause I already know that, by now, in rapping I am
So that means on the beats I am gonna be like hurricane Katrina, or even a verbal Fukushima
Next time I spit a verse you'll be having flashbacks of Japan
But I make my tracks for the fans, don't keep it quiet please
Speak the truth no, secret societies
Open your mind, and try to see
That everything you took from inside of me, came entirely from having..
[Hook: DMB]
Flashbacks, of another life
When I close my eyes, lying in bed at night
I'm having flashbacks, of a better place
Where I can see a smile, on every face
I'm having flashbacks, now I don't feel alone
I know it's been a while, but I am coming home
I'm having flashbacks, leave me be
I don't need your sympathy
When I am having flashbacks..

[Verse 2: DMB]
My body won't stop tearing at the seams, that's why I wrote this letter in my dreams
Cause the life that we're living, it just doesn't make sense, so I'm gonna find out what it means
And the way we do this - expand your conscience
Then search for the truth of what you're worth inside and you'll be the strongest
So I made a promise, to our dying people
I am gonna sacrifice my body to make sure your souls aren't lost to evil
And I will use lethal force if I have no choice
Cause I'm trapped inside this dream and I can't get out, so I'm gonna scream till I lose my voice
But the words I'm saying, have been mistaken
Cause I try my best to fight this sin, even though I've been forsaken
I still hope that one day there's a place for me
When I die my spirit can be free, and my soul resumes it's place as energy
So until that day comes, I am just gonna defend
Wanna try and send me to hell, bitch? I am already in the deep-end
So I don't need to pretend, when I'm facing the beast
I could be awake and on my feet, when I close my eyes I'm not asleep, I'm having..
[Hook]

[Verse 3: Elusive]
Motherfucker, you should know we're never gonna stop, II Kings, just keeps coming up
Only fans we ain't ever gonna get are yours - and it's cause they're dumb as fuck
So keep on thinking you're doing cartwheels around the beat
Cause the next time I jump, I'mma hit the track so hard it'd crack the ground beneath, oh wow, now, I found my feet
I'mma climb the highest mountain peak, while you're lying there counting sheep
I'mma reach the stars, and throw one of them back at you while you're sound asleep
Yeah, I hope you get that, next time you wanna spit wakk
Head to McDonald's, get a Big Mac, make sure that you are down for beef
But I gotta pick the momentum up a bit now, yeah it's shifted
You might of not noticed but it just did, and I wish you'd admit what you witnessed
When I'm in this, zone on the microphone, ain't nobody gonna match this sickness, I'm inches
Away from where I wanna be, so I think we must be dreaming - somebody pinch us!
But there ain't no sense in us pretending it's all a game
When I keep on having these flashbacks - and I act like it's alright, but it ain't the same
How could I of known the toll it would take to try and attain the fame?
When I just wanna feel like myself again, without needing to say I'm having..
