DANSE MACABRE

They got the camera on me so I'm thinking that they like me
They running up quick, so I think they tryna fight me
Making all these hits the only thing that excite me
Got all these events, and they trying to invite me
Had to decline 'cause the Moonlight was shining
I'll just sit at home and plot on the dining
Table where I'm able to face all the faces I've taken
And lives that I've shaken, I'm breaking

I'm craving fortune and fame
So I look to the dark side
Spirits to come grab me, put me right inside the Moonlight
I play my cards right, see my tarots all aligned
Ain't no Roshambo, 'cause I'm winning every time
So let me chime on in, tell you where I've been
Feel my childhood was lost and over too damn fast
Now I'm working too hard for just a little fuckin' cash
But I gotta keep it pushing, leave it all in the past

Haven't hit our peak, and you're still trying to compete
I heard you sampled this last week
But it was pretty fuckin' weak
So I'm just coming with the sweet and gritty beats
That make you think when you repeat and then you read
And then you finally will see
What we've been saying for a century
Find that we're essentially
What you're fearing every week
'Cause now that you're into this
You're one of the many kids, no longer an outcast
Come and join the Ritual, see how you decline fast

Their money is your money, we gotta eat the rich
Spread the wealth around we needa make a switch
We're Born Like This, you can never judge me
A step away from God, you can never touch me
My eyez to the sky, keep my goals hella high
Keep on aiming straight up so I can take flight
I'm ducking and weaving, soaring all through the night
Gotta keep pushing forward til I can see the light

I wrote this one alone but I still feel united
Our future got cleare, you can call me farsighted
Got no Gunns, but we still are the finest
When we at a show I know you tryin' to come find us
Getting us to sign your records and supplies
It's all a little wild, dreams I've had since a child
Never thought I'd have it, I'm just supplying these addicts
Who are tryin' to come hound us, saying
"When is the next album?"
Man, we haven't even dropped one
So I bet you're fuckin' ready
For these crew techniques
Call that New Antiques

Old but in a new style, jazz but make it rap
Blowing up real quick, close the set, that's a wrap
Kinda like Gambino 'cause we're in 3005
Man it feels like summer 'cause it's all good vibes
Gotta rhyme like Tribe, we some New Antiques
Feeling old but looking classy
We been tryin' for so long
But our vision was too glassy
Seeing really clear we had to change from our past
It was all a test, I know I passed

The silver moon finds me alone tonight
With only thoughts of you
The happy spell of you now holds me
