The Outernet

Slug

For starters
I contemplated on where to split you
Marked a spot with a dotted line
Then ripped you
Used careful procedure, if you listen closely
You can hear the ghostly moans of
Foes bleeding through the speakers
The voices of various toys who ate the poison
Fucking up the solo juts and the
Ones that snuck their boys in
Like a free-for-all buffet when my team
Cultivates a crowd of loose heads
And boosted heads get called and all
Of them fall this way
Used to be on a mission
To destroying emcees' existence
Now I'm tryna build so we
Can make this shit efficient
Strength is in the mind and
Strength is in the numbers too much sleep
Then you slumber so we linked
The bees and stung you
I brung you three times as much as
Your fucking idols brought to you
But since you know me locally
You dismissed me as an obstacle fuck it
Rhymesayers already got the
Twin cities locked support's overwhelming
Ain't no need for you to give me props

It's time to reach out
Grab the nation and the earth
Let's see where your hearts at
Let's put the outernet to work

I spent my whole life working to get
To the point that I'm at
So now I spend my time
Tryna reach my destination
I'll be at the end waiting with my
Crew for the rest of you
To arrive to shed the destitute
Mind state supplied by life

He said what? He's telling all of
His boys that I can't rhyme
Then I guess the shit's a success
If I'm even on his mind
He's doing what? Recording a project? Good
He should be i'm not impressed
It's obvious y'all never understood me
I dwell in a land of
Ten thousand Hip Hop fans
And every fan thinks he's an emcee
Heads are heavy but they're empty
I dwell in a land of twenty thousand emcees
But only half of them are head influenced
Tense confusion stems
Damn, no need to worry about
What the next man's doing
That's what keeps you from
Perceiving what I'm pursuing
Here's a clue and kill your demo
I'm tryna make history
On a bus full of empty seats
Now who wants to sit with me?
In case you're unaware
We've been doing this forever
And ain't damn thing changed
Financial status nor the weather
However, lack of cash reinforces passion
Fuck the rapping, man if I was wack
I'd promote "The Happenings"

The difference between the average head
And an emcee is effort
Pick a side, either side
Let's begin the network

I spent my whole life working to get
To the point that I'm at
So now I spend my time
Tryna reach my destination
I'll be at the end waiting with my
Crew for the rest of you
To arrive to shed the destitute
Mind state supplied by life

As an emcee
I run rhymes to distribute the fun times
As a lyricist
I promise to heat up your brain like sunshine
As an emcee
My goal is to make the whole show dope
As a lyricist
I wanna spit that shit that you can quote
As an emcee
I provoke my producer to stroke your spirit
So as a lyricist
I can't be choking on my lyrics
As an emcee, I know the key is originality
And as a lyricist
I command other emcees to respect me
That's it, respect, that's all
In fact the same respect
That I offer to you and your
Crew after y'all rip the set
I'm just a man, but I roll with others and
We've got this plan to let the voice expand
Across the tortured land
Education starts at home, six-one-two
From there we roam through headphones coming
Soon to your war zone the aftermath
I'll have to plant some gems
Into your passive ass
Amped to cut trees and branches so
Ya'll would have a path
The more you feed it
The more it needs to consume
If you're coming through the
Region, hit me up, we'll rock a room
Let's network, let's work
Let's all get work
So we can build the overall network

I spent my whole life working to get
To the point that I'm at
So now I spend my time
Tryna reach my destination
I'll be at the end waiting with my
Crew for the rest of you
To arrive to shed the destitute
Mind state supplied by life

Let's network, let's work
Let's all get work
So we can build the overall network
