Atmosphere - Ode to the Modern Man (Lightning Blend) lyrics
[Atmosphere - Ode to the Modern Man Lightning Blend lyrics]
This is an ode to the modern man
It's the ode to the modern man
This is the ode to the modern man
Word up, this is the modern man
This is that ode to the modern man
This goes out to that modern man
This is the ode to the modern man
It's to the modern man, lightning blend
Word to B E, I'm a tad bit too easy on self
And maybe I should keep a
Closer tab on my health
I suppose that it's simpler
Said than completed
I thought me to attack but
In fact again retreated
Completed this word search
Crumbled it up and ate it
My hunger for my blue-collar
Heaven keeps me sedated
Escaped it, last night in a dream
And now I sleep
With a flashlight and it seems to keep
The nightmare demons and semen laced
Portions parallel and apart
Like Stephen's Avenue in Portland
A much traveled one-way
Or a slow residential
And if the camels don't stump me
I'ma grow with my pencil
Once I climb the skulls of this MC graveyard
I'll see the sun again
I'll jump and run again
So come on over, visit
Cause I got a lot to say
And tell Stress I ain't mad
Cause I got my way
But my man Spawn's here now
So I'ma make it brief finish up my coffee
Gather up my shit and leave
I got an army of peers
We fight single handed
And I won't damage your brain
Until I understand it
You have only one chance to advance
To the next stage I'm at
Do you really think you
Actually will pass through?
I have to ask you
Did you see what happened to the last dude
Tried to compare styles
Word he got his ass chewed
Now with this in mind
Do you still wanna bring your shit
And find out the hard way
Spawn's not the one to play with
Trade blades with
You might as well slit your
Own wrist with the razor
It's best cause I'm crazier
Blazing you, for my own amusement
In tune with your body
When I split your whole fixture
This is what happens when you're
On my shit list-er brains to give a blister
So next time you call me sir or mister
It's the word-twister tongue used to
Make the verbs hit ya
Now do you get the fucking picture?
Well if you gotta save you you better call up
Cause my behavior blows kids away
Like a tall wind i take you all in between
My jaws for consumption
MCs and coffee at my luncheon
One or two lumps, and some cream
Call the team for the gathering
Bring mics and turntables
Let's do our thing
Ha, cause it's an ode to that modern man
This is that ode to the modern man
Yeah, this goes out to that modern man
From Minneapolis, St paul to that modern man
And it's like a dedication
To that modern man
This one here, this is for that modern man
From Atmosphere goin' out to that modern man
It's to that modern man, lightning blend
What, now for the umpteenth-time we
Kick rhymes about something can't front
I'm frustrated with heads that don't listen
My position's off balance
It's a constant challenge between the
Talents and the underlying mission
I can fill your head
Some more with metaphors
Some cute catch-phrases
Filtered through accessible things
But if I don't stay sincere to love and hate
How do I differentiate between chasing
Cream and chasing dreams oh yeah
Fuck an MC in my city that wants to diss me
If I was to bounce to Atlanta
With Shocker y'all would miss me
So kiss me
Smack dab on the asshole while you battle
I'm with your wife sharing a Newcastle
Big up to Gene Pool
Cause he's the modern man
Word up, that kid Abuse
That kid's a modern man
To Self-One, yo, that kid's a modern man
Full Circle, you know them kids is modern men
The Native Ones, word up to that modern man
Beyond Extreme, this goes to the modern man
Dynospectrum out to that modern man
From Atmosphere goin' out to that modern man
Word up, this is the ode to the modern man
It goes, like, one time for that modern man
This goes out here now to that modern man
It's to that modern man, it's
To that modern man, kid
Yo, this is the ode to the modern man
It goes word-up, yeah to that modern man
It's for that modern man
It's for that modern man
It's for that modern man, lightning blend
It's the ode to the modern man
This is the ode to the modern man
Word up, this is the modern man
This is that ode to the modern man
This goes out to that modern man
This is the ode to the modern man
It's to the modern man, lightning blend
