Off The Necklace ft. Level 13 & DJ Mysterons Lyrics

Seconds on the record

Season after season intravenous

Was in my blood since adolescents and the fetus

The game will feed us

Strategic meaning like Archimedes

Graffiti turned to theater

When leaving these pens bleeding

These rap adaptable classical masterpieces

Spreading like diseases

The last of a dying species

Last of a dying breath left from rapper architects

Alphabetic slaughter with origins from cassettes

Memories in silhouettes

Shadows in smoke from cigarettes

Legends in the game and in the flesh

And then it's after death

After life

Basking the light

Survive the pain in sacrifice

And through the strife

Could never quench my thirst or appetite

Reckless, breathless, blocks connected like Tetris

Descendants of the culture

Through these scriptures and these lectures

Levels of ascension

Through the trenches not an entrance

My gems is off the necklace

Whenever this life will test us

My gems is off the necklace

Whenever this life will test us

My gems is off the necklace

Whenever this life will test us

Throwing caution to the wind

I'm out to win

Its where it all begins

Within the places that I been

Not through a cameras lens

Or it began

You cant out run the time or clock of sand

You play the hand that's dealt

Was not really part of the larger plan

Words are dripping liquid water out the faucet

Many hero's martyrs died on crosses

Take the Wins with losses

What this game will cost us

Heartless streets are cold as artic

Move farther regardless

'Cause the gems will sparkle in the darkness

No more greener grasses

Passing lights and sirens flashing

Crashing alleys scatter

Broken glasses

Only a few will rise from the ashes

Rights of passage

Mastered on wax melted down to plastic

Acid rain from saliva baptized on open caskets

No surprises reality not as advertised

Immortalized recorded classic

And visions was photographic

The game of life was not for practice

Utilize the tactics

The light will turn to dark

And darkness turn to blackness

My gems is off the necklace

Whenever this life will test us

My gems is off the necklace

Whenever this life will test us
