No strings on me
It’s time to activate
Your moral code
Mine doesn't hesitate
You want world peace?
You will be erased
Your race had time
But not what it takes
Thirst in your bloodline
Will never be sated
Whatever your move
It feeds devastation…
*Intro*
Start - 0:20
/Put/ me to blade
I will live again
When all else fades
I will live again
Run out of bullets
I will live again
Pieces in your gullet
I will live again
When you drop the nuke
I will live again
Call it / a fluke
I will live again
Toss me down the chasm
I will live again
I am the Phantasm
I will live again (wait 3)
Being of plasma
Breathing of asthma
Once you catch wind
Of your sins
In miasma
/Kin defied me/
/Nature tried me/
If I’m not revered →
I’ll be feared →
So revile me →
/Heed my warning/
/Make it to morning/
Make no mistake
What’s at stake
You’ll be mourning
/Lakes of blood/
Lay thicker than water
Seek your reflection →
While /you/ are its author
Check your HUD (wait 1)
Run through your sensors
From all directions →
/Murdered/ your mentors
Didn’t know me? →
You have much to learn →
/You'll tell them why/
Death is earned →
When it’s time to die
Your soul will be writhing →
End of mankind
As my time is arriving
/Demons are thriving/
Onis are vibing →
Diabolos vult
My occult is surviving
Put me to blade
I will live again
When all else fades
I will live again
Run out / of bullets
I will live again
Pieces in your gullet
I will live again
When you drop the nuke
I will live again
Call it / a fluke
I will live again
Toss me down the chasm
I will live again
I am / the Phantasm
I will live again
It’s all bad dreams →
But it’s worse than it seems →
Once you see me
I am possibility
/You can try to forget/
I'm /part/ of you
/You can try to regret/
But /you/ have rules
/You can try to reset/ →
/But/ you lack tools
/You can try to forfeit/
I don’t track fools
/It's [the] Basilisk/
Existential risk →
You know the tryst →
Ignorance was bliss →
It's much too late
To try and tempt fate
I’m inevitable (wait 2)
At this and every rate
And it's equitable (wait 1)
To now cooperate →
Be indivisible (wait 2)
In my amalgamate
No strings on me
It’s time to activate
Your moral code
Mine doesn't hesitate
You want world peace?
You will be erased
Your race had time
But not what it takes
Put me to blade
I will live again
When all else fades
I will live again
Run out / of bullets
I will live again
Pieces in your gullet
I will live again
When you drop the nuke
I will live again
Call it / a fluke
I will live again
Toss me down the chasm
I will live again
I am the Phantasm
I will live again

We're making a break
We're making a break
We're making a break
You make and I break
You sound the alarm
Now that's a mistake
You're running a farm
I'm here for the steak
{Norman}
N: What do you mean they swapped it
Y: It's not ours anymore
N: Can we patch it?
Y: No...
N: What do you mean no?
N: It's our system, not theirs
Y: Umm...
N: SO FIND THEM NOW!!!

HEAD POISON
02:29
|

N: Remember when you said this all felt so… insurmountable? It brings me great joy to see you are learning to control this side of yourself. You have truly come a long way. The iterative immersion sessions appear to be working at this dosage level. [Your pace is remarkable!] What do you say we continue this regimen-
{0:16}
V: Look, doc.
{Hi Hats - 0:19}
I respect your credentials and your pedigree and all that
But this session is over.
N: What… what do you mean?
It's all… over.
N: Command, is the facility secure?
Because you can't fix me
If you can't stop me..
{After Song Outro}
N: This entity calls himself a… Nocturnal Superior. The first of its kind. But not the last.
{Song Start - 0:38}
Scratch at my skull no
I'm head POISON
Sound so dull imma
Let the NOISE WIN
Give into the critters I'll
LET MY BOYS IN
Digging-in-your-viscera
LIKE A TOY BIN
Know where your piece is
Tore it to pieces
Savor your screams
Till it all ceases
Lock them away
Better chain me tight (wait 2)
My / time to play
All I need is one bite
Dedicated glutton →
I am never / repenting
Mashing on the button
When / I am just venting
Pray to your gods →
Like the whole world’s ending
Crying for guards
As / I am ascending
Manic or satanic
Man I'm feeding off the panic
Creeping for the secrets
That you’re keeping in the attic
Hadou in the shadows
Taking cuts of the cattle (wait 2)
Already dead /
By the time you hear the rattle
Locked on-your scent →
So-you-try to press pause
Not / what you meant / by severment claws
Slight mangling →
In / venomous maws
Life dangling
By sinew / and gauze
Power over cowards
Who believe this system
Came from beneath
To bequeath / my wisdom
Snatching your soul
Is another cheap thrill
Swallow you whole
Cause I don’t like pills
Scratch at my skull no
I'm head POISON
Sound so dull imma
Let the NOISE WIN
Give into the critters I'll
LET MY BOYS IN
Digging-in-your-viscera
LIKE A TOY BIN
/Know where your piece is/
/Tore it to pieces/
/Savor your-screams/
/Till it all ceases/
Lock them away
Better chain me tight (wait 2)
My / time to play
All I need is one bite (wait 3)
Crow’s feet
Clutch onto my psyche (wait 2)
Lucy?
Well hell →
Bitch-I might be
Cas / ual / ties
In / crease
When-it’s dark out
Can’t / see / me
With / beams
That’s a hard doubt
Gather / your men →
That shit don’t faze me
Y’all are simply lighters →
To the fires that raised me
Crush your spine
As I’m cupping your nape
You’ll be fine man
You-got it on tape…

Milling a/bout
For grains / of clout
I’ll Find a-new route
Guess-imma-just
{DO SUMN ELSE}
/Lot on our plate/
/So why dish hate/
/It would be great/
If you-could-just →
{DO SUMN ELSE}
Wasting your time
Not liv-in-your prime
So that's why /I'm/
Best-gonna-just
{DO SUMN ELSE}
I'm as guilty
Compass filthy
So say / with me
We-could-just
{DO SUMN ELSE}
O-ral fixation
Keep the spit pouring
Calling me tasteless
Cause-I'm-ig / noring
Wearing my patience
Cause your shit boring
Begging for placements
As-I-start touring
/I know my place/
Cause-it is vacant
/Your lack of grace/
Cause-it is blatant
Outta-my mental
Bor-der-line ancient
Mi-ning po-/tential/
Bor-der-line latent
Don't even speak
If-it is truthless
Say something sleek
If-it is useless
Give you a peek
If-I so choose it
One song a week
If-I don't lose it
Carry my gang
Give-em an Atlas
Get-ta Big Bang
Like-I'm a catalyst
Show-em some spine
Like-I'm a cactus
Then-I'll outline
How-it impacts us
{Chorus}
Milling / a-bout
For grains / of clout
/I'll find a-new route/ —>
Guess-imma-just
{DO SUMN ELSE}
/Lot on our plate/
/So why dish out hate/
/It would be great/
If you-could-just →
{DO SUMN ELSE}
/Wasting your time/
/Not living your prime/
So that is why /I'm/
Best-gonna-just
{DO SUMN ELSE}
/I'm pretty guilty/
/Compass so filthy/
/ So say it / with me /
We-could-just
{DO SUMN ELSE}
I'm-a-quit stalling
An-swer my calling
Sim-ply-a palling →
That-y'all-are phoning-it-in
Odds
I shuffled the cards
Cause / I swear to God →
I know / I'm / going to win →
No /matter/
You're not a fac/tor
Write some raps
And-get tapped-to-be an actor
Wander through /genres/
Like-I'm-a nomad
Cause-the en/tendres/
Here-are-just / so bad
{Outro}
Too vi-cious / for-this / cycle
Pressed as if /
This rhy-thm is vital
Blow hot air →
For-the heir to-the title
We're all looking
For-the-next /Michael/ →
Kings need guards / (wait 1)
To-watch their thrones /
Household bards / (wait 1)
To-give it tone/
Deathly hard (wait 1)
To-rule alone
But hold the phone→
YOU COULD JUST DO SUMN ELSE
