Description
I made use of another one of preference's instrumentals (Love Instrumental - http://www.macjams.com/song/51844) so props to him.

This song was about working on my rhyme scheme and the sense of crisis created by the mind in present day society.

Lyrics
Individualism is the prism in imprisoned eyes
giving in to living in the dim light of their own device
the guise of life hypnotizes becomes divisive
while the wise try to wake people up to get them to to realize this
I relied on the idea that good intention suffices
but have realized I have too much pride and come across self righteous
I invite this insecurity curbing thee appetite for likeness
while you fight this feelings building searching for the path that's nicest
suffices to say that you save on the prices you pay
but the vices entices a sense of crisis in your brain
it slices and dices and then leaves you lifeless in your veins
but the times arises for life's lysis to take what you've gained

It's a little bit of wisdom that invigorates the system
to enlisten the medicinal purposes which assist them
while my visions' emissions are planted in you through incisions
cause my missions ambitions are planned to alter your condition
so open up your eyes and try to pry into my mind's design
I was hoping you'd find the reason why is treason to define
it was soaking in lies freezing in the wine a piece of mind
they were smoking the signs cause the blind lead the blind
so the ash turned to dust in the lust of the present day
now the task is to fuss about the distrust of their ways
but the past will rust and muster a touch of what is change
so at last we must learn to adjust to the coming days
it's the phase of waves that bring the maze of feigning pain
and its games that blame becoming the brain's main way to maintain
they're like chains that enslave the animals into their cage
cause its the face that we've made that's grown such a sense of rage

Love the syncopated
drum beat in this. Bad to the bone. Excellent rapping. Sounds a bit like something "Naughty by Nature" would do. Sounds Great. Fav'd and DL'd. Very well. Love the samples you used. Old school stuff like this is what I like. I think a lot of modern rap has become too percussive, not enough actual music. Pretty abrupt ending though. I would add another verse and change the end a bit. Other than that. Great.

hey thanks
Yeah, idk if you saw the description but I used preference's beat for this, so that was all him. I actually cut a part out of the end cause I couldn't come up with something to satisfy that time, which may be a little responsible for the abrupt ending however it was a short beat in general. It was hard to put a chorus on it and so I just basically made one long verse on it. Thanks for the feedback tho, much appreciated.

i dont get why you dont get more comments on your lyricism..Your writtens, delivery and flow were ILL. I wish I had your lungs. lol.

i cant get over the second section, shits dope. one of my favs if not my fav from you lyrically speaking. no pint in me quoting my fav lines in this, basically your whole second half kills.

gracias
Thanks man, I'm glad you can appreciate it cause I did put a decent amount of time into writing this. Although the meaning of my words jump around a bit, I did make an effort to maintain a general theme and rhyme scheme.

Yeah, I would think a lot of people just can't relate to rapping not being an MC themselves, thus their priorities and focus are on other aspects of music, and so they are not able to appreciate it it with a similar understanding. But then again I just don't get a whole lot of comments in general... ;) buuuut maybe that's cause I slack on commenting on other people's stuff. Fair enough.

Poetry
"but the vices entices a sense of crisis in your brain
it slices and dices and then leaves you lifeless in your veins"

Hot internal rhyme. The scheme is ligit, the theme is tight, you were on beat most of the time. The lyricism is on point too.

sickkk
I second what prototype, Sir Bass, and Crissew say. You're one of the hottest rappers around these here parts. very very well done. listen to this and then compare this to your oldest stuff, and then pat yourself on the back and WRITE WRITE WRITE!!! you've got soooo much potentiel man.

and about Aesop Rock, I guess I can see some similarities, but you've got a style all your own. big ups.
