Track for the Anno Domini Beats contest, hopefully i can get around to finishing at least one more track for it. This is a storytelling track that is awesome and has reportedly made people "shit bricks of gold"... I'm not sure how it has this effect, but it does. So get ready to hit the mint with some shit.

Licks:
I dont know where I came from/
My mind hums a strange song/
I taste malt liquor my jaw bleeding with that/
And I lay on the floor feeding the rats/
Take solace in the fact you aint like me/
Chipped retinas and I cant quite see/
Slowly drowning in my own saliva/
Feeling lonely like a lone survivor/
My bones inside are cracked down to the core/
And my wrists drag down on the floor/
Attached by a single tendon/
Strands to my back, dipped in venom/
And as I stare up jaw agape at the night sky/
I feel my mandible crack and splat on my right thigh/
Aint got much skin and whats left is wrinkled/
But in my left eye is still set a twinkle/


Build me up, build me up, Im a man, Im a man/
Build me up, build me up, Ima show you what I can, what I can/
Build me up, I know I seem deranged/
But I can evolve man, please believe I can change/


Dunno where I got this wrench thats like fire to feel/
And I dont know where I got this desire to build/
But its here now erasing the massive pain/
As my arm muscles are coated in the acid rain/
As they melt the bitumen into a jaw for my face/
Bones replaced by bars from storm water drains/
Grind concrete blocks up to replace the marrow/
And give my mind the wings of a complacent sparrow/
Im built on statements shallow, titanium rods/
Platinum chains and the replacement of God/
Use each shining link to replace my arteries/
And let the lust in my veins so my heart can breathe/
Place dollar bills where my flesh is bare, raw, numb/
And sew em down with laces of the freshest air force ones/
Use the diamonds from the bling to focus my eyes/
And stand the fuck up ready to open the night/


Build me up, build me up, Im a man, Im a man/
Build me up, build me up, Ima show you what I can, what I can/
You built me up, now Ive taken flight/
Now Ima show you all my dreams in this crazy night/


Welcome to the city I built from a rat cage/
Its a fat maze where everyones a slave like the black race/
In past days, and Im the war monger king/
Using childrens coffins as my four finger rings/
And I built the concrete heart of this urban landscape/
Out of the broken dreams of those who didnt earn their escape/
Supported by stacks of billions, every Benjamins mine/
And the cities left to wipe their tears on the pennies and dimes/
So you have to borrow it quicker, drown your sorrows in liquor/
And hope tomorrows rat-race shows youve followed a winner/
And I dont need to trap the youth, the call inspires them/
And puts chains round their necks on a ball of diamond/
And it sure isnt pretty as I soar with this ditty/
But after all these years Ive become bored with this city/
As Im walking I see a man almost dead in the strip/
So I smile one last time and place a wrench in his fist/


Build me up, build me up, Im a man, Im a man/
Build me up, build me up, Ima show you what I can, what I can/
Build me up no more Im in control of this scene/
Now its time for another to show you his dream/
Build me up, build me up, Im a man, Im a man/
Build me up, build me up, Ima show you what I can, what I can/
Build me up, I know I seem deranged/
But I can evolve man, please believe I can change/
