* Intro - Script - Unknown * Verse 1 Perceptions, such a powerful tool (Yeah) It determines! What name you'd be called Be it fakes projecting in another persona To finally waking up from slipping into a coma Yeah u know to, differentiate The love from the hate The lessons learnt, the pain From the mistakes we make The same practice u take In the perceptions we face And that’s everyday! U got to look with your eyes, see through the lies Believe what’s right, I feel from what I read and write! That's me on the mic Trying to be me, as much as I write It’s the constant battle of trying to be alike That sight? Can get to a guy Derailed from what’s in hindsight And my minds like I’m right But sometimes my hearts not alight The train of thought in life, so when times time Reflect perceptions, keep your eyes wide Chorus Look in the mirror and believe what you see Even though what you see is not to be believed Look at your reflection when you took that And tell me what’s your perception when you look back Reflections Perceptions x4 Verse 2 I’m conscious of my conscience, which is aware of my sub Stereophonic vocals, but not blaring the sub No bass no snare, the kicks n that stuff Its there!!! But u can’t see like the air that u puff It's there!!! You can feel but can not touched A form of a bond based on facts of such Awareness, that causes cells in your brain to rush Where insomnia of your third eye is tested n watched So I refrain from slipping and sleeping, can’t treat my days as evenings Minds can build layers with everyday n repeat the weekend Call it inception but that will be too deep then All I’m saying is what’s the purpose of breathing? I got to look at the path that open gate And be ready to snatch the smirk off omens face U can watch your back till your in a boxed place but I look at to look back with the giving’s of gods grace Chorus Look in the mirror and believe what you see Even though what you see is not to be believed Look at your reflection when you took that And tell me what’s your perception when you look back Reflections Perceptions x4

Chorus x2 Hip Hop (x4) Words with emotions in synced Hip Hop (x4) Verses relived in ink Hip Hop (x4) The essence that’s in its brink Hip Hop (x4) Reflect perceptions, its time to think! Verse 1 Ok, where to start it? The basis begins with the artist With the paths we choose & that we part with Hungry for the fame or humble with the hardship One of many temptations we have to harvest Nurture, study and expose the daft sh*t The question is the answer, so listen when u ask it These are the ways that the love targets, Tests and separates the half hearted If you’re well aware, you can laugh hard it's... A matter of how things perceive to be It's my sole purpose, believe in me Coz I, studied it a lifetime Liked it all until I built a life line Of my rhymes that taught my mind To try grind, the significance of this life time Yo I strive to be my best, tired of an amateur Grab hip-hop by the throat & man handle her Make her throw up the perception from a camera That brainwashed you and slowly dismantled ya Chorus x2 Hip Hop (x4) Words with emotions in synced Hip Hop (x4) Verses relived in ink Hip Hop (x4) The essence that’s in its brink Hip Hop (x4) Reflect perceptions, its time to think! Verse 2 Hip Hop gave an interest, above all focus Prior I was floating like what a boat is Now, I'm smooth sailing from what the flow does An aim to maintaining not to go bust Perceptions purposely portrayed to show cast Such a work of art but never get no love Unless love equals profit for the pockets But the pockets never cough it if it's honest They'd sod it, water it down to pop hits Just letting u know, to the novice Whose innocence is derailed by the bollocks In order to show you I'm here to pay homage Share the sorrow of the lost hip, hop kid See, I don't shut up till my voice is heard Stayed silent too long and all that time it hurt Now its time to kill this sh*t to see it in a hearse The redemptions be the beat, driven in reverse The same goes to the artists whose watered down by thirst Nothing, what y'all catch from my verse Concentrate when I write my mind think deep So mind blowing I freestyle and let the ink breath Chorus x2 Hip Hop (x4) Words with emotions in synced Hip Hop (x4) Verses relived in ink Hip Hop (x4) The essence that’s in its brink Hip Hop (x4) Reflect perceptions, its time to think! Verse 3 Whats hip hop but poetry put on a beat? A Platform for self expression so our souls can speak Im not sure about music anymore Where its going, What direction. Destination looks poor And the best don't seem to get recognition anymore Manufactured mass media brand name whores Created by fat cats propoganda in full force And of course they've got them on all fours so they can eat a full course This is just the start, they called Kanye's twisted fantasy art Yet Akalas doublethink doesnt chart Do you listen to lyrics when you listen to a song? Are you nodding your heard giving approval to the wrong? Subconsciously you soak it all up So it comes out in your actions and f*cks your mind up Edu-tainment for todays youth This is bittersweet symphony for a sweet tooth.

Chorus Just like the wind, she can come she can go She glides within, either crumbs or in o's Age not relevant, young or ya old She fools you to think that the sun is in the cold Damn! You can be left hung and feeling low Spend days, possibly months in a row The kiss on ya tongue can have you sold I thought she was the one the one for me to hold Verse 1: Damn, I remember when I first met you It was late December and it felt so special You moved me and kept me going like petrol Such a tender age, exposed to something sensual Mum tried her best to shelter the outside world But society was destined and that was out by girls What a typical scenario, the streets a cynical father yo Egged on by peers, to man up. My dear! I ain't going to lie, that was less than half of it Curiosity, played the real part to it I just wanted to introduce to you A dude that was into news of you Who would do maybe a thing or two To capture a moment in view of you I had to do! What I had to do I picked up my balls and then I moved to you And in my favour to reach you, I had the hook up So for me to get high, all I had to do was look up Chorus Just like the wind, she can come she can go She glides within, either crumbs or in o's Age not relevant, young or ya old She fools you to think that the sun is in the cold Damn! You can be left hung and feeling low Spend days, possibly months in a row The kiss on ya tongue can have you sold I thought she was the one the one for me to hold Verse 2: Mary Jane’s a chatterbox, when she'd talk But she taught me subject matters with deep thought And by being in her presence she'd make my knees weak When I'd hold her tight, she'll make me breathe deep But by being with her, it was like a roller coaster ride Coz mans would try to move her, I'd hold her close my side She was hot property and always on fire Getting dragged left to right from her admirers And that's when I clocked; she'd been out and about Coz her lips were resuscitated from mouth to mouth She'd never let me breathe fresh air, she's toxic But now I see past the illusion like optics To accept the fact that she's not the lady of my life And there's more to a pure soul, maybe if I'm right Coz I went from just the one then again to more Now I know why this bad b*tch is against the law Bridge Just like the wind, she can come and go (She can come and go) Exploring my intension, she said she can ease up all the tension (Uh) So when she touch my lips, she glows in my eyes (She glows in my eyes) My head starts spinning, she got me in a trance But when she aint around, I'm feeling so low (Just feeling) So low (So low)

Verse 1 Today I'm about to fly off But I'm losing my drive man a straight write off Engineering writing rhymes I find hot Finishing my sentence like the bars shines got But the only pen I've been talking about Is the one I'm writing with and I'm reading out Man I'm good when it comes to word play And I have been since my birthday Yo I warn you not to pass these yellow tapes Coz that's where Nazsty dwells and meditates Killing any beat, that was ever made Been doing it since way back like vertebrates No nine but still holding the heat Oh my, spitting like rain drops on the street Only to evaporate to what I breathe Heading to the very top just like a weave Shoot for the stars and go galactic The sky ain't the limit, there's more to manage Coz man crossed more than the Atlantic Into the o zone and out this planet One direction and that is latitude I be getting high, just like strapping doobs One man oot until I'm out of this earth I guess I've been grinding putting in the work And that's coz my state of mind is outta control Its universal, it's out of this world That's where I go when I need my space Coz no one I no one relates to what I face So I digitally reincarnate No no stopping me in paths way Signalling sounds down the satellite And watch Hip Hop manifest whist sat in heights Verse 2 They said the worlds gonna end like the Mayans predicted I flip the script and take sh*ts on these fake pricks Say some sh*t i'm not sure how you'll take this Dark like the moon in a lunar eclipse is Revenge of the sith I attack like an atom been split when i spit Sit back in my spaceship Float in abyss While I tell you the truth about things that exist See I believe in more And anything is possible the world is yours Perception lies inside your mind I can see your soul straight through your eyes The sky aint the limit Its only the beginning Enter black holes and different dimensions, inventions Attention! Now try comprehending a beginning and an ending...

Verse 1 I'm too sprung up on my ex To be caught up with a next It can ease and help forget But never heal up from the depths The action that is lead isn't fair on the next Not content with whats next nor even my ex A catch 22, left bitter by the breath The taste of what is numb, nothing more nothing less Self hatred from regrets, left feeling all upset The realisation took more than just a sec Life is the path and these are just the steps Each flight is a hurdle bringing out your very best Yes there can be bad but good can still be found If there weren't no good then you could kill me now But there definitely is, you see more when in doubt So the test can be your pass, to be your ticket out There definitely is, you see more when in doubt So that test can be your pass, to be your ticket out Chorus The world is evolving, with or without us You have to move upwards to move outwards Since you've held it in, now see what out does That's what I do, power of what sound does x4 Verse 2 You can depart insanity and arrive to reality To take control of tragedy then to breathe happily It can be done, why not give it a run The achievement, the outcome, the thought of something done Is giving me the chills that is next to non I can see what has begun by only what to become I wanna be better, better than I ever was If it was written, why question? Naa never god! If it was meant to be then it's whatever it was To whatever it is, whatever the cost Acceptance, depends the gravity in your drop It could be cushioned or you fall, hard as a rock Either way, the force is still parallel Same amount of energy, let the matter dwell The difference occurs to only what is relative Dependant on whether its a plus or negative Chorus The world is evolving, with or without us You have to move upwards to move outwards Since you've held it in, now see what out does That's what I do, power of what sound does x4

Intro Jump on the platform Depart in the rap form Seated in the back carriage Journey through a hidden passage Board my darkest dreams Thoughts from the toughest steams Tightly grip my ticket Where will my life lead if I miss it Chorus Train of thoughts, thoughts of a train I get caught, through a journey of pain These tracks help me guide my brain So there’s no delays to, where I want to aim Train of thoughts, thoughts of a train Carriage of empty souls, sitting in vain Platforms waiting, stressing in strain So depart with me, so we can all attain Verse 1 On my trains of thoughts, hand on my ticket Watching myself through the window, how I do & did it Another new day, I wanna move with it But society? Doesn't want me to live it Naa. Nothing in this life is free, no one to give So I watch my back incase someone wants to nick it It’s kind of funny when you look at life when u tip it Its like holding your neck by rope, how do you rip it? Unleash yourself from this evil system I swear I’ve had enough of being the victim Beat down, left with nothing but depression Still I live life for the moment, though it’s a lesson And when I try to rebuild, back on recession My conscious gets defeated and mind starts neglecting Brain starts rejecting, shai-tan starts infecting But it’s too late when my heart starts detecting (The damage is done) Chorus Train of thoughts, thoughts of a train I get caught, through a journey of pain These tracks help me guide my brain So there’s no delays to, where I want to aim Train of thoughts, thoughts of a train Carriage of empty souls, sitting in vain Platforms waiting, stressing in strain So depart with me, so we can all attain Verse 2 The damage is done And I’ve had my fun To realise I’m back to where I started, square one Just one steps forward and two steps back I feel awkward and I get mad So I, rev the engine, leave the tension Smoke my Benson and speak my session On how the government, has us on lock down School? Is just another word for compound A better education is what they want us to think But I aint gonna stomach a pack of lies that they bring The system may educate to a certain extent But how to live your life is at your own expense Which unfortunately leads humanity to collide Do they teach us how to protect and survive? Naa! My train of thoughts has lost it's track And these diversions aren't taking me back Chorus Train of thoughts, thoughts of a train I get caught, through a journey of pain These tracks help me guide my brain So there’s no delays to, where I want to aim Train of thoughts, thoughts of a train Carriage of empty souls, sitting in vain Platforms waiting, stressing in strain So depart with me, so we can all attain *Hidden bonus switch up* Verse 3 Yo the sun pops up, yet another day in An insomniac, but wake up in the AM Blood shot pressure, eye bags weighing Dealt a pack of cards, but I’m tired I aint playing How can you believe on what the government is saying? Charged to speak your mind, but I aint paying Kids are narrow minded, eyes start to cave in This life’s a test and everybody’s failing I’m tryna step forward but the pavements fading I try but I’m running out of patience, waiting Corrupted youths that aint even started shaving Degrading our women, hooked on blazing The systems the canvas, they choose what’s painting Just enforced, brushed away by the Satan Don’t see hope, but still my hands up praying Days are looking dark, but Allah I have faith in
