| Patterned around the thought and the will
 | 
| We shattered the sound of perpendicular noise
 | 
| Now gather 'round, blueprints to rebuild
 | 
| On top of that, I found I’m gettin’sick of your voice
 | 
| Retentive, the Earth makes me tend to introvert
 | 
| And I’ve presented the worth of these kicks and this wrinkled shirt
 | 
| Ingested verse for seconds and a big dessert presented
 | 
| Thirst with sprinkles of dope indisbursed
 | 
| When you burst, it won’t be an accident
 | 
| It’ll be a worldwide web of heads takin’this shit back again
 | 
| (6−1-2) Now find the emergency exits
 | 
| 'Cause I’ma snap a spine to make an example of the skeptics
 | 
| (Atmosphere) I don’t care if you know me or you hate me Just come check out the show and travel back home safely
 | 
| Lately, a weird thought occured to me What if I was to grab the mic, which one of y’all would service me?
 | 
| (Watch the rhythm) Inventions to rock the restless and kill your ego
 | 
| Your whole karma’s vibin’off the vex
 | 
| It’s best if you take a hard look at what you’re givin’me
 | 
| ('Cause your name and your rank don’t mean shit to me)
 | 
| Stars and Stripes are like cars and bikes
 | 
| They’re just vehicles you steer to ride other peoples fears
 | 
| Stars and Stripes are like nails and spikes
 | 
| They’re just tools that you use against the physical rules
 | 
| Put down your weapon son (Slug talking)
 | 
| Put down your weapon son
 | 
| Put down your weapon son
 | 
| Would you put down your weapon?
 | 
| I heard a grip of little voices in a thousand heads
 | 
| Calling me out of my rest to come and plow your steps
 | 
| An elder once told me to always use precision
 | 
| (Discretion and vision when you start the ignition)
 | 
| 'Cause any engine is highly delicate and what you got to say
 | 
| Is irrelevant if you’re talking for the hell of it
 | 
| I smell some shit, check your sole, brotha
 | 
| did you step in it, now who suffers from my control deficite?
 | 
| I can’t go out like you ('cause you lack dopeness)
 | 
| I’ll break your whole crew down to (a bunch of wack poets)
 | 
| Shrapnel gets lodged under your clavicle
 | 
| When your man exploded, Atmosphere concoctin’antidote shit
 | 
| Fuck 'em and the record deal that they rode in on When Shawn is in his vocal groove I come to choke your truth
 | 
| Broke your screws now its open and loose and its?
 | 
| (Beyond came along and stabbed a DJ in the foot)
 | 
| The spokes bend and buckle (and the wheel collapses)
 | 
| There ain’t no need to even ask whether or not you feel the Atmos
 | 
| I’m peelin’back heads performing brain surgery'
 | 
| And sewing 'em back up (There, now you’ve heard of me)
 | 
| When the smoke clears, you won’t be able to choke tears
 | 
| When the smoke clears, when the smoke clears (2x)
 | 
| Put down your weapon sir (Slug talking)
 | 
| Put down your weapon sir
 | 
| Put down your weapon sir
 | 
| Put down your weapon
 | 
| As I sit here with my head between my hands
 | 
| Attention span focused on trying to read the plans
 | 
| I can’t shake the thoughts that it might be in vain
 | 
| So I play the radio while I drive me insane
 | 
| (I travel like the wind) I travel like Avis
 | 
| I feel as if I’ve been to hell and back and I ain’t even been to Vegas
 | 
| Pages and pages of notebooks dedicated
 | 
| To separatin’snake skin and amputatin’fake lips
 | 
| (Underestimated) But when you heard me, your masculinity went girly
 | 
| And your whole crew broke out early
 | 
| (Self-preservated) Avoidance is the first choice
 | 
| Calculated: Step the fuck away when you hear this voice
 | 
| Moist, thats how we leave 'em rendered
 | 
| Either the brain or the pubic region, depending on your gender
 | 
| And if you’re a female head (no disrespect intended)
 | 
| Unless you step to me on the mic, you must be sheddin’your placenta
 | 
| I wear the honor of an emcee’s past
 | 
| Where I wonder Is this wasteland encased in cheap glass?
 | 
| Reflected to find the status where you stand
 | 
| (You're just another victim with a mic in your hand)
 | 
| When the smoke clears, you won’t be able to choke tears
 | 
| When the smoke clears, when the smoke clears (4x)
 | 
| When the smoke clears, you won’t be able to choke tears (7x)
 | 
| When the smoke, Smoke |
