Illmaculate: I'm abusive with the methods And my crew will get respected We move as a collective This is music for the wretched Ready to lose it in a second We deadly, you'd be stupid to mess with these emcees [...] You can find us, puffin a blunt Weapon is out, reppin the town up in the cut (Portland) I need cheddar along with someone to trust The eyes on the back of my head See better than the ones in the front Hindsight's 20/20 We want five mics because we hungry We got nine lives because we study our enemies' moves and find patterns We step in the booth, we're spreading the truth to these blind rappers
Iame: We might have to paint the sky black Just to watch you get no shine after you denied access Now within my line of sight has got me inclined to fight back My third eye's wide open, the other two are slightly cracked All I do is write this graphic novel in graphic language And the blazing path that follows you can't extinguish Young delinquents [...] and get famous but don't think first Blow the advance for the thrill of dough in their hands (don't seem worth it)
Chorus: We don't like sand, I heard it tastes like dirt X2
Ethic: Put your face against metal and meditate On how you never made an escape from the demons That we feeding the taste of your blood You bleeding, we leaving you weakened Keeping it heated you feeding from Eden And Sandpeople they see and defeat We deep to the core, beating doors down, the forced entrance Against media whores that explore their own interests We don't even the score, we leading the war If you need that dope shit, we an immediate source
Gold: Calm your barker or get slain with an archer's aim Chalk your body up with spit where the red carpet lays Portland's a a tad bit darker day-walkers trapped in the rain A chaotic blaze dance to Sandpeople [...] (that's money in the bank) These artists draw a blank, you're dead without pain [...] just a heavy conscience falling over the ledge There's no crossing our paths without going over a bridge or two It's that Northwest original, we more or less invincible
