d-marsh - the statement lyrics
[verse 1: d-marsh]
i spend my days learning how to live from the dead
contemplating how not to live in my head
as if there was another option i could choose instead
man i listen, but i can never catch what they said
rap’s been dead, and i’m back from the living
d-marsh on the track, go head act like a cynic
but when the sample drops, and them claps are in rhythm
it’s time for that skyfall, word is bond, better ask for forgiveness
the apocalypse is not a moment, it’s a life time
it’s warm winter rain that falls out of a bright sky
when that sun came out i thought i might cry
i’m just the shy-type, moonlighting as a nice guy
spent the last year searchin for the right vibe
not another rapper standin on a white lie
found my life line in a net like wi-fi
words i can recite live, might as well write mine
[verse 2]
inspiration, been lookin all over, where did i place it
sometimes it goes off and i chase it
basically, at this point i f-ckin taste it
that’s what the f-ck you really call a sensation
i’m tryin stay patient, cuz life is limitation
and put out good art, cuz life is imitatin
i put my faith in these chops and breaks cuz its sacred
take six, a four beat count-in to amazement
thought that i was ill, but i guess i was contagious
it’s a plague when its, spreadin across the nation
you might hear it in a bas-m-nt, but never on the station
disgracing every cr-p rapper out there spittin fake sh-t
face it, dudes hate cuz i’m their replacement
so i better sign my name every time that i make a statement
marsh, aka martian in the sp-ceship
they want my contact but they couldn’t see me with lasic
[verse 3]
play this, been workin all night just to say let
rap’s tombstone shake this here is the graveshift
just to let the ancient legends know they can wake this
here is the reason that i can’t quit, push until i make it
the blatant hatred, i faced it, embraced it
this wasn’t my -ss fault, i told you it was pavement
some sh-t i roll over man that’s what you call repayment
can’t let this game break me, cuz i’d rather just change it
now i’m that m-th-f-cka, my rap’s under raps
i am back, more relaxed, hope it lasts through the summer
you saw the flash count down get ready for the thunder
cuz the flow won’t stop no plumber no wonder
my foot on the gas til i crash no drummer
time to wake up so i pull back the covers
funny how you sleep on us cuz you hate the dream
they doubt that i’m real sh-t they’ll see i make believe
[verse 4]
i spend my nights learning how to sleep in a dream
silence is a curtain that my thoughts come between
i’m living out the cost but i forgot what it means
but i realized that being lost is serene
ask what i believe and i’ll guess what the weather’s like
i foresee a storm but then again i’m never right
when i was a child the dark had me terrified
but i’ve learned that adulthood is the art of being scared of light
cuz really we fear our imagination
it’s a morbid fascination with that sh-t you wouldn’t dare to like
but its in you somehow, show me a parasite
i’ll show you a paradise, better prepare to fight
the erudite’s truism, it never is clear advice
the mind is capable of sh-t that i couldn’t prepare to write
so i breathe deep, seek peace, and now i’m speakin in fahrenheit
yeah, you better dare to write (down, down, down…)
