Numb Tongues - The Beast (feat. Mayraki, MacLeigh & RizzyDaMaverick)

A new rule, the day's arrived, night time overcame my eyes
Blind as the horse that stays the line, chase the divine or the grand design
Expand minds, tired of just running the race, staying in place, tails all in my face
Try to lift up eyes, replace what I see with grace, move up, pulled down, told to meet my fate
A rat in the race, or a crab in the bucket, both bad but I can't say fuck it
The rat's stuck, can't recover, but the crab finna jab, stay hungry, trying to rise above it
No more than a mask, discover, inside a slumber, subsides, a wonder, arrives with thunder
Worldwide, a hunger, feast like no other, all life can muster, won't die a buster
For years I've been holding back me, wanna swing on the vines and climb every tree
Conquer the mountains and run through the sea, unleash the beast that lurks inside me
I wanna climb every tree
Swing the vines, submerged in ecstasy
And tame the beast that lurks inside
Try to contain a beast undercover, cloaked up, but if memory serves you best, you ain't gon' find success
So I ain't stressed about it and with my feet kicked up I worry less about it, yeah
Fuck captain, I'm king now, whole crowd has to bow down, we don't wear the same crown
Yeah we don't wear the same crown, fuck you got to say now
I hold my crafted energy, I can't contain the beast within me
To the people who contradict what I said, maybe you should try to release some energy
Stop running from the truth, don't flee, better yet, swing from that tree
You wanna see all the things that I see, pick yourself off and set yourself free
I wanna climb every tree
Swing the vines, submerged in ecstasy
And tame the beast that lurks inside
I wanna soar through the sky
Like a bird, 'til there's nowhere left to fly
So please don't make me stay inside
Hold up, wait a minute, what's with all the panic in the atmosphere
I'm walking in a war zone, all the stores have been closing for who knows how long
My anxiety rages at apocalyptic levels, I just wanna break free
Regain my sense of normality, to know I'm fine
Know I'm fine, I said I know I'm fine, yeah, yeah, yeah
A wild child just built different, I'm trying to paint a picture but you just can't hold the division, the coldest intention
Marked by the beast that's constantly on my back, my senses urge in a flesh to attack
But what's the cause? Reexamine my state as I take a pause, throw my hands up to the sky, leave it to God
Or whatever force happens to be there to see me in my frenzied state, am I too late?
Wrote myself in as one of the greats, I'ma keep pushing 'til I'm six feet in the grave
And when it's all said and done, what will be said of my state, my being, my existence?
The biggest question is, will my work stand against time, push my persistence?
Hand forged this team, this is our resistance, can I get a witness?
Climb through the doubt, I'll make it there, if I fall off then I don't care
At least I tried, I'm not afraid, I'ma make it my way
Climb through the doubt, I'll make it there, if I fall off then I don't care
At least I tried, I'm not afraid, I'ma make it my way
