[01:36.56]yo, peep the style and the kids checking for it
[01:39.00]the number one question is how could you ignore it
[01:41.45]LP back in the cut over basement tracks
[01:43.60]rap stack got you back in the sub black
[01:46.04]rewind that we just rolling with the rhythm
[01:48.67]rise from the ashes of stylist division
[01:51.19]with these non-stop lyrics of life living
[01:52.92]not to be forgotten but still unforgiving

[02:53.60]reflects the complex hybrid dialect now
[02:55.93]detect the mesh of many elements compressed down
[02:58.16]the melting pot of a super-future X-style
[03:00.44]the combination of a vocal caress
[03:02.53]with lungs that gasp for breath
[03:03.73]from emotional stress
[03:04.81]with special effects
[03:06.01]and a distorted collage
[03:07.04]carefully lodged between beats of rhythmic barrage
[03:09.10]it's going down
[03:09.95]the logical progression on a timeline
[03:11.90]the separation narrowed down to a fine line
[03:14.16]to blur the edges so they blend together properly
[03:16.21]take you on an audible odyssey
[03:18.22]now it's going down
[03:19.13]a logical progression on a timeline
[03:21.06]the separation narrowed down to a fine line

[03:34.13]when we melt down the wax in your record graves
[03:36.54]it's going down
[03:37.39]L for the world to see
[03:38.77]LP and the X-men to the 10th degree
[03:41.35]it's going down
[03:42.09]nobody in the world is safe
[03:43.81]when we melt down the wax in your record graves
