lyrics

Metropolis – Invictus (Lyrics by Jonah Falk)

Verse 1
I'll ride the metro transit
Hope there's no traffic
Rolling right past it
Poems turn to magic
Can't count how many rhymes
I couldn't find until a bus ride
This the combination
Kemp and Payton
In my zone feeling smoother
than Felix and Iwakuma
On the move I'm a mover
Like I'm going somewhere
Static is the fear, with a pen I attack it in the ear, you know, right up in there, I know it's all hot air until I breathe into the mic, get online and press share
Beating myself up, brought my rings
Into the ring, but no ones there
I'm so mad I'm beating up the snare
Haven't even brought the hook
It's just me verses, here
But I can't lose the battle
To despair
I'll never hit the stage and let the kick drum blare
Unless I hit record
And let em hear
And now I'm here

Chorus
206
West coast blend
Add our own to the mix
Send em to the east coast
Let em toast to this shit
Cuz we’re trying to make the most of this

Verse 2
I'll ride the metro
Transit hope there's no traffic
Rolling right past it
Poems turn to magic
Can't count how many rhymes
I couldn't find until a bus ride
Looking for inspiration
There's plenty for taking
Reading the information on the pages of our generation
Entertaining our imagination with creation
And celebrating our Inauguration
Paved by joe metro
On tobacco roads
Speaking with dear friends
In old volvos
You can roll my way
Or you can inhale deep
Either way man
The river runs deep
And try as we may
We can't accept defeat
Sure, there's no promises
I don't know what the problem is
With guitar picks
Bass hits, lyrics, and drum sticks
There's nothing stopping us
Living in the metropolis

Chorus
206
West coast blend
Add our own to the mix
Send em to the east coast
Let em toast to this shit
Cuz we’re trying to make the most of this
