Sandpeople - Points of View - Earth 2 O
[Chorus]
From the land to the rain we soak in the planets piss
flooding out the weakness it's survival of the savages
when all is gone only we shall remain
in this land that we claim mixing sand with the rain.
[Ethic]
I cycle through, mixed points of view
and tap into subject matter that relates to you
in a relative manner
I've been through hell and it has to get a lot hotter than that
before I'll buckle without a doubt, I travel, king of the castle
kingdoms are overrun even when one has overcome the field of battle
the, villain within, feeling the serpent of sin
and I'm sick and tired of you stealin' my skin
the sirens sing softly... I go to sleep
keep myself bound and gagged by the ability to speak
reach is ineffective, keep it connected
each of us got our own idea of the overall objective
that's what keeps us moving in a constant direction
whether we're on a similar path is an irrelevant question
I express best when you will not hear it
the silence of life versus the violence of the spirit.
[Sapient]
If you can't endure then bow down to those who challenge
and if it takes you to my metal palace where words can cut through calyces
sand erodes mountains, in silence holds more power than loudness
I found these to be the principles that allow me to outlive
and fortify the artist and structure I live under
and cover my arms and the track marks left from injecting the infected art
when I get sick to my stomach hip-hop allows me to get a grip on disfunction
and now I only live to crush this
the beast within does not wish to coexist
with the civil human and all of his material motives in-
side the element that allows me to fly
is the same element that brings earthquakes and storms where you reside
but the tempest is in my mind and it's been in the picture since birth
that's why my ribs hurt, and it's why your crops wither
your ideas dissolve like powder in my thought pool
drink the mixture beat the listener till opposition reconsiders.
[Chorus] -2x
[Mo-B]
I p-p-p-pounded our conundrums, you wear a high hat
aristocrats with tax funded damn I want my planet back
I play loaded questions like i shoe shaved ice
i already know the outcome before your gray-heel can reply
at what point in time, did time become money devote
thirty years of life and retire if your lucky
it's like one poor world, we're like one rich country
country clubbers don't care that millions of us go hungry
this world's disgusting written off in earthly peril
like we can leave savin' this shit up the super heroes
come hither boys and girls, let me tell it-tell it sinister
you shake it up like salt, a polaroid picture
I'ma shake it up like aftermath of nuclear winter
and after that we'll pull back proud, front and center
I was born a sinner, I'ma die the same way
the difference between me and you will be seen at the pearly gates.
[Gold]
I shattered the (...) that constrict our souls
smothered with the broken fragments of clay that is used for my control
the human psyche is unfathomable
so I'll harness these energies so I can achieve my goals
see I'm not your typical mortal who's concerned with leaping hurtles with the rest of the cattle
i'm hear to lift my sword and just end this battle
the beacon of light shinin' in the shadows of wicked men
a lust for women, that candy coat the sins with bitter sweet cinnamon
a synonym of how were livin in reoccurrin' events caught with our pants down
pissin' on an electrical fence, we focus on irrelevant evidence
in hopes to patch our holes in our turbulent existence,
but in just one instant this very life you know can cease
everything can be taken away from you and the very air you breathe
thats why i stay on course marchin' forth with a head full of steam
pushin' towards the gold line to manifest this destiny
[chorus]
