The Grid by Cryptic One Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2013

[Verse 1]
Yo
Examine the process
Up close and honest
Alone no accomplice
Promise nothing but a brief observation
A peek through the curtain
See the man behind the person
Stripped down version
No armor no shield
Refound purpose
Snake charmer’s not real
But yet we buy what they sellin
And settle for these pebbles
Instead of gelling the rebellion
Bravery seen on the scene so seldom....but after?
Extra helpings of that endless dream telling
Ain't that a world thats so compelling
But Im settling on a planted on the earth kind of dwelling
Its a humble reality based bunker
Such a blunder laughing in the face of wonder
I retraced the thunder and found where it lives
And Im juicing it for power then im skidding off the grid
[Verse 2]
Back on the grid, back online
New cape new goggles, new frame of mind
Embrace the mishaps
Then break the shrink wrap
Quickly tap the thin fish glass
Not for the quick cash
Kept away from the way the pastor say to pass the day
A castaway that found his own path and way
Thats the way this oreo crumbling
And if you wondering...
I'm just a journeyman on a humble adventure
Middle finger to the censors
No retreat no surrender
Tell the bartender, blue… neat
Tip the bar keeps
Place the bait its shark week
Dark belief.. thats wrapped in this swig of hope
Wait a second chief… I think we might need a bigger boat
Or a smaller ocean to float in
Better yet...a stronger potion to soak in
I'm floating..... off the grid
