Invocations

Story Behind The Song

The paradigm of life in a western society which requires us to work for others more often than we get to be home with our families, or at least working for our selves. I refer to this concept as a "slow suicide." This song is an affirmation for my desire to live off my art, and share my spirit with the world. It is a call to action to examine this way of life and choose a new paradigm.

Lyrics

Yo! This one goes out to all my people out there killing them selves with a 9-5, then they have a 5-10, a side hustle AND sell their blood just to make ends meet!
On that grind, on that grind yo!
Don't want to be another slow suicide
How is O? I'm survivin how bout you, are you a wage-slave too? I refuse to repeat the cycle of a slow suicide
This day forth I am free, all aboard
I'm so sick and tired of the same old shit talkin' bout myself and my depression
There are more important things out there in the world than the man in the mirror.
Ay Molly, Percocet, gonna lift me up from my despair fuck it, I'll take the mask off because this is who I really am.
All I really want is be on this stage, engage you in the crowd, make you dance, jump around
I don't want to be another casualty of society
Claim my power now I won't go down without a fight.
Don't want tobe another slow suicide
How am I? I'm survivin' how 'bout you, are you a wage-slave too? I refuse to repeat the cycle of a slow suicide
This day forth I am free, all aboard
If you're a white man in America. (Nobody gives a fuck)
If you're a black man with a megaphone. Let's work together to spread hope, fulfill the prophecy of love.
As for me? As for us? Well I guess some of us are just born to roam.
Un-school me, pimp out my skoolie.
The emerging class divides, as college leads to crippling debt. Enroll yourself in schools of mystery instead. Speak the invocations of the dead.
What I say I'm gonna do I always do because I will it. When I say it then it's done, it's already happened in the future. When you think about it Time is like a river running through it. Light thoughts and intentions running down stream like the current trends. You don't gotta say a lot. Keep your words pure manifest thoughts.
Abusing the vision will get you a one way ticket to seeing what happens when you pour out the bowl of Appolyon.
All I want is to be in this stage engage you in the crowd make you dance jump around I don't want to be another casualty of society claim my power now I won't go down without a fight
Don't want to be another slow suicide
How is O? I'm survivin' how bout you, are you a wage-slave too? I refuse to repeat the cycle of a slow suicide
This day forth I am free, all aboard (follow me)
