Illusion
War & Sin Lyrics

Yo
Hey

Who the fuck
Who got

Got banished to the back of the class
Got kicked out and sent to the back of the class

To pass grass
To smoke marijuana

Blew it out the window
Exhaled the smoke out of the window

Smacked ass, vacuous
Hit on attractive but empty-headed individuals

Flat abs, statuesque
Having a toned physique and looking like a statue

Immaculate tracks smashed
Destroying the competition in rap battles

The back of the pack
Being in last place

Is what's happening
Is the current situation

We all pass, so what's cracking
We all succeed, so what's going on

Take a fucking crack at him, captain
Try to challenge him, leader

Or keep it shorter than an acronym
Or keep it brief like an abbreviation

Man of war
A warrior

Four fingers, one thumb
A hand with four fingers and one thumb

Times two
Doubled

I will find time to find you
I will make time to locate you

True story
This is a factual account

A forty and a bag of the snort
A forty-ounce drink and a bag of cocaine

The Old Glory tore him
His patriotism was shattered

Back to the fort flooring
Returned to the stronghold's ground

Forewarning!
Warning in advance!

I'm on the back nine to cash signs
I'm close to achieving financial success

Seeing patterns like tax time
Recognizing patterns like during tax season

Mind over matter for the latter
Mental strength is more important for the latter

Is a clap trap
Is a deceptive trick

Tap it to combust
Activate it to explode

Dust crumbles with a touch
Dust falls apart by a simple touch

I tuck thrust-ables
I hide weapons

Lust over luck, untouchable
Desire for success over relying on luck, feeling invincible

Trust the gut like what lovers do
Follow instincts like lovers do

Now I'm backed by a pack of thieves
Now I have the support of a group of criminals

You act whack, we attack
If you behave poorly, we will retaliate

With elastic reach
With flexible influence

Fuck facets of passive peace
Disregard aspects of calmness without action

You fast, I feast
While you fast, I indulge

I max the capacity
I reach the maximum potential

Choice is elusive
Having options is hard to come by

Illusion of choice
Perception of having choices, but they are limited or manipulated

Voice is useless
Having a voice doesn't make a difference

Hubris and noise
Arrogance and loudness

Void and fruitless
Empty and unproductive

Still I speak
Nevertheless, I express myself

Til my vocal waves break things
Until my words have a strong impact

It's a master and a slave thing
It's a relationship of dominance and submission

A matter of
A question of

Battles to wars
Small conflicts to large-scale wars

Saddles to swords
Riding horses to using swords

Cattle to stores
Herding cows to selling them in stores

A habitat of savages formed
A place where wild and violent people have gathered

The children of
The offspring of

The kids of the corn
The young individuals from rural areas

We ill and abnormal
We are sick and abnormal

Fiddling with militant forms
Experimenting with aggressive ways

We willing to warn you
We are ready to inform you

Fascists, I flash the flak jacket
Authoritarians, I show off the protective vest

Passive, past tense, I'm massive
Inactive, in the past, I'm huge

Masked men, who's asking?
Unidentified individuals, who wants to know?

Do the mathematics
Analyze the situation

Outta control - Attica, Attica
Completely chaotic - a reference to the Attica Prison riot

Start a riot, capture the soul
Incite a rebellion, grasp the essence

Take a step back
Withdraw for a moment

Retrace the rhyme scheme
Go back and analyze the structure of the lyrics

Dead that, my team?
Drop that, my group?

Shines like a high beam
Gleams brightly like a car's high beam

I mean - You can feel it
I mean - You can sense it

In your King Tut gut
In your gut instinct

Serpico's dying, a herd to a lion
Serpico, a character, is dying, and from a crowd, emerges a leader

I'm vertical flying
I'm soaring high

A perp to a siren
A criminal to a police siren

Assertive and silent
Confident and silent

A lit wick
An ignited fuse

In the mix like Bisquick
Involved like the baking mix Bisquick

Ride me like a body board
Use me like a surfing board

Hottie in the Audi four door
Attractive person in a four-door Audi car

Wanna try me?
Do you want to challenge me?

All it takes is perfect timing
Only precise timing is needed

The knife swing caddie corner
The knife swing in a diagonal direction

Out of order
Not functioning properly

Borderline king
Almost a ruler

He's an underdog supporter
He supports those who are underestimated

What sort of disorder
What kind of confusion

Got him boarded in Corcoran
Got him imprisoned in Corcoran

Ordering hot meals
Requesting spicy dishes

Like I'm courting a courtesan
Like I'm pursuing a highly paid companion

Peel - Or jet
Leave suddenly

Like a subtle hue of black, fool
Like a slight shade of black, fool

That dude
That person

Permanently stained
Permanently marked

Like a tattoo
Like body art

Lyrics like a switch stance
Lyrics like changing stance

Handstand manual
Doing a handstand with instructions

Kill it like a span
Execute it flawlessly

Of brick canvas by vandals
Created by rebellious artists on a brick surface

I'm a bruiser
I'm an aggressive fighter

A show and prover
Someone who demonstrates and proves their abilities

A fully loaded Luger
A gun fully loaded with ammunition

A Fugitive
A person on the run from the law

From Lucifer's shooters
From the devil's gunmen

Judases!
Betrayal!
