Basilisk Lyrics by Abdullah X

2020

[Verse]

False prophets, Judases, fake Messiahs
Wine to water, seas to deserts, Iblis attire
Increase the fire, flame bones, the moon black
The sky white, the sun blue, and y'all do lack
Truth in your veins, in your marrow, teeth
Your taste buds speak deceit, daggers in your irises
Greed in your cellular, pitiful, my ink's precise
It fiends to devour dreams and drive and things
You a King, crowned, castle and fortress, then?
Armies and brigades, squads, shooters, and forces, then?
Please, you a God of forging, no Vulcan
I burn where you roam in, young Vesuvius with the heat
Me? Not quite a prophet of peace, or lick in the streets
Nor a goat with the sheeps or wolf without sleep
Perhaps, a beast, a roar, a howl, a hunger's plead
A tiger's heed and giant's leap for diner's feast

Bite me, your enamel melts and gums bleed
Showing your back's to me a death sentence
When I speak, know I convey death's sentence
Woe, destruction, decay - death sentence
Raising your voice 'gainst me is deaf banter
I am the water and the oil that dance on it
X on another tip, my stare is punishing
I dare you run up then, a sip or taste is sufficient
Bubbling, bubble, bubble, go and huddle
Go and ante up, double trouble, two bloody vessels
Is the answer, flamboyant subtle stool spit
Rebuttals fuel it, consider my flow cancer
The mood shifts, the room fits my anger
And moves it to the roof and sky to signal danger
I been mean to glean and find where the truth lies
Only bone I'mma throw y'all's 'tween my two thighs

Poor man's bliss, ri-ri-rich man's nightmare
And after this, the abyss will stare and strike fear
D-d-dark now, I d-dare you bring your shine here
Think you miles far, you a stone for these light years
To y'all so-called generales asesinos
Cross me, Jesus fate'll seem compasivo
The only legend here is all these legends y'all quote
But if you Leviathan then I'm el basilisco
