The Switch Up Lyrics by B~Shadows

The New Age of Hybrids

2019

I'm independent, I repp it like a pendant.(4x)

B~Shadows can be shallow
He might stab low, or shatter your backbone
Witnessed gallows, but caught em in the act tho
Crushed castles, letting the masses know I'll attack bro
All natural Killin and choppin until this world is a black zone

People think I'm angry, but I just have a case of mad flow
Rappers telling me how to spit but do y'all really rap, no?
I'm not in it for views or clout, I need a purpose stat, oh!
It's to slaughter all you lames that refuse to speak facts, so...

Welcome to the switch up
Please just give up...

That's what they are telling me
You don't know what I'm relishing
My devilish element settling
Actin like I haven't felt a thing

I'll burn em to the third degree like a pyro
This game is easy to control like an iPhone
I have good balance cuz I was born on a tightrope
I don't have the upper hand but I know when to strike low
This whole world is ego fed, no one is right bro
Enter my vacinity and you'll realize your light broke
I don't have to shoot cuz they know I got em in the sight scope
They calling me a pussy til I switch up into fight mode

I have so many ideas in the dark, I don't need a light bulb
I swear I hate humans yet compared to most I'm still mindful
I stay open minded and chose not to wear a blindfold
I'm not a psycho, or a disciple, my middle name is just Michael
Bitches wanna sue me like I've never been held at trial
I created my own style, I don't have any true rivals
Murdered em on this track, think 911 needs a dial
Why do people believe in the Bible?
Cause words are never really final

Embaressed my parents by being transparent, that's apparent
Disparaged a marriage, inside I'm careless but I don't share it
Friends scavenge like ferrites, other rappers copy like parrots
But soon Ill parish, could be one of the rarest, after all there is no fairness

If we are all broken, then who can repair this?
How do we know things need to be fixed? Or is life fixed, as we cease to exist
I traveled in loops, grown in my roots, my rhymes are infinite

Time is just a concept
I guess so is my conscience
There's no God or Goddess that will stop this
No cross assembled across my thought shift
I took the world and tossed it
Tried to find my mind but lost it
Reverse the verse, lift the curse, get ready for the plot twist
Inverted the introvert, I'm backwards and exhausted

I'm running out of options
In the dark I have the most optics
Like I was the hot topic
But I'm out of stock and no one can top it

The shadow realm ain't a place that's magical
I have to ensure every move I make is tactical
If you act a fool then you'll get a bull whoms stash is full
Ready to pull any scheme even if it's radical

We are not supposed to live our lives in the digital
Everything I rap is going to be considered criminal
My demons scream at me to give in and rip a soul
But at least I can say I try to keep it real and original
People nowadays earn success by doing the minimal
They think I laugh at the wrong things, calling me cynical
Probably because they were expecting a miracle, or something biblical
Fighting through rituals, showing that I really am mythical

I am not a myth, I am spiritual
I am not a little shit, I am lyrical

Welcome to the switch up
Everybody screaming just get fucked. (4x)

Yeah, I'm Independent, I repp it like a pendant
Cause they will not forget it
When I told 'em, "You won't neglect this!"
Man, how do you protect the access
When you're dening inside?
Man, I am building an alliance
But I'm really tryin'
And we showin' through the time and shinnin'
When we really show this triumph
Damn, What the fuck we felt it in our veins
And we really let it decay in our brains
Man, it's engraved as we say wanna raise up from the grave
I'm relishing inside the relics
Man, the memories and mentos
Man, I said so, when I really get to choppin'

Emerged from the depths of a malevolent cursed shadow
Surged through the deaths of a revenant sent to stab low
Learned from my mess that's irrelevant to my mad flow
Burned up the rest, that's an element you don't wanna match bro
Everyone wanna match cause their sack low
Imma burn like a match in a black zone
Imma beast in a cage match here to snap bones
Clones wanna match me but not get on a track so...
I'll write them this sad note
It may just be your last hope
I aim fast but I can rap slow
You mother fuckers rap nothin' but a crap load
The rhyme scemes are simpler than tic-tac-toe
You try to perform at a show but you still at home
Y'all need to mature like an ill tad pole
You better believe I came to kill
I won't let my skill slack, hell no!

I am a shadow that will leave ya trippin
I am the darkness without a discription
Demons repeat in my head until I'm slippin
It's hard to tell the difference between the undead and the livin
Passion's what I've given
Doesn't matter what I'm spittin
My dead soul has risen
Like I took the bong and ripped it
I'm no angel but I've been lifted
Through the instance of blood drippin
I am more than gifted
With the words I've scripted
I painted that image
Words of the wicked
Are the only thing in my mind that's encrypted
I am no wiccan
But I cast the shadows from within
Cause I'm really with it, get it!
Nah! Forget it, I'll end it in a second
Cause you cannot comprehend it
I almost forgot to mention
We in it to win it
So I'm finna to get it in less than a minute
I'm rippin the tension, so pay the fuck attention
We'll never come in second, please don't second guess it
