CURSED EMERGING

Now disaster strikes in unfamiliar territory
Its that beer belly story teller, rebel without a cause
Eye level jaws, drop down to the floor
It’s the final frontiers of joy
Walking on concrete fields of glory
Code red in area five one when I escape
Yo, I told them all, that if I ever got free
Imma continue my rapture on a murdering spree
It’s the strategies of anarchy
Its time to panic when Ive had it with these vampires
But its been said too many times
So imma bring it right back to me, myself and I, i
Wipe the sweat off, tilt the cap down
And walk along the sidewalk streets of fire
See potential enemies get the silent treatment
While they wading in the shallow
Im eyeing them in the deep end
Sequence of events missed with the blink of an eye, i
Give the sunny skies a kiss goodbye -- Can you hear?

Hear the moans and groans, hear the sighs of relief
See the signs on the street when im walking home on feet
I, feel the dawn taunting, smell the third degree burns
It’s the reason I don’t get why these vampires lurk
Waiting for the sunset the darkness, the full moon
Fully groomed narcissist waiting on park benches
Ready to consume the next innocent bystander

Highlander, immortal, Abnormal proportions
With intentions of adding another morsel to collections - Action

Let the sky disappear
Breathe in clouds of fear
The vampires roam the streets and homes not near
Pimps, prostitutes, street pharmacist and thugs
Don’t even dare come to these sides tonight
Suddenly six red eyes slowly approach me from the alley
So I, Tilt my cap up, gave a half grin, Ha
With the speed of a phantom
Something they couldn’t fathom
With the blast of a pipe bomb
Moving they eyes around, see these kats was wack
They couldn’t handle one on on
So they tried a triple attack
But that still didn’t work
I spit em another verse
Stabbed the first vampire with a wooden stake to the heart
He turned to dirt and I smirked HA
I turned around and I walked away
The other two weren’t too happy so
I took a deep breath and sprayed some vicious garlic breath words
The second left in a hurry
The third seemed confident
But didn’t worry, spit a rhyme till I ran out of oxygen -- Whooo
Now that was three vampires verses me, myself and i
Multiple victories was mines for the keeping
Half grin to a smile, evil eyes under the cap
Headphones back on, hoody up
Heading home, thinking, now its smooth sailing
And slowly out of the shadows, comes eighteen red eyes
Little did they know that the full moon had arrived
So I glanced at the vampires
Looked down at my palms
Fingers turned to claws
Incisors to fangs
Uh oh
pulled my hoody down, turned around and gave a roar
