42 Lyrics by Banquer

2023

Screw structure, I’m gonna spew out my mouth freely with mostly conjecture
Combine a mental picture with this phenomenal tincture to create the miracle elixir
A ticket to your own prefecture in the land of dreams after what will sound like a four hour lecture
The story of a specter that existed but was never known, here comes the first chapter

Rapture, finally gave birth but she wasn’t happy to meet her son bеcause having him in there must havе really hurt
Left as soon as she could stand but didn’t bother naming him, would have been fine with leaving him in the dirt
A nurse took pity and raised him till he was three but eventually she couldn’t keep up with the fees
One abusive foster family to the next, no rest in between, they would adopt him lock doors and throw away keys
Cursed with immense intellect by the time he was six, attracting envy and getting pelted with bricks
Can’t catch a break at eight, betting he’d get beat up any day was like betting on who can beat the Knicks
At the age of ten found his profound ability to take things apart and put them back together again
Around about then everyone was convinced he would grow up to be among the worlds most psychopathic men
Fast forward four years of horrific caretakers to when he’s finally thrown into the looney bin
Surrounded by crazy round the clock but he stayed calm and collected, the doc found it baffling
Another four of growing more intelligent at which point it’s concluded that he must be malevolent
And so he ends up in a facility housing the criminally insane and actually malignant
This was essentially prison, these fiends were here for life and formed small cliques and gangs
Mostly made up of savages that got caught red handed then plead insanity to hide their fangs
Got approached about a month in, said he wasn’t interested only to get stabbed four times with a fork
Had to stitch himself up because when he went to the infirmary he got sown up by an incompetent dork
Not long after that he figured out the intricacies of how you got to watch your own back
Eventually he learned, tables got turned, hits you with the stutter step, lights out, fade to black
Unfortunately he didn’t see the orderly that first walked by then took him by surprise
Can’t do much to a freak in disguise so he couldn’t really retaliate, just escape, anyway let’s take five

He did the math on it, another twenty years here and he probably wouldn’t be out even at forty two
Got to break out before twenty two with a clean scheme, he’d be gone for weeks before anyone knew
Made queries in a single night to test and confirm theories because he didn’t want to get caught acting a fool
If he follows his own rules the whole ruse would go perfectly, all that was left to do was press execute

And now that he’s finally free he had to quickly figure out how to bank roll his own survival
As a quick study the quick buck came easy, pulling off odd jobs to get his hands on what’s vital
But mean streets operate on a hood bible and he needed something concrete to put food on tables
Became a mechanic, learnt to paint houses and do his own carpentry, this sort of thing has lots of labels
Didn’t enjoy it but he essentially became the best from the very beginning when he chose his own hits
Pulled off a job in Malakoff with nothing but two toothpicks, a pair of oven mitts and use of his wits
A decision was made in the organization that he’d gone from being an asset to an imminent threat
They needed the next best, a retired femme fatale that wasn’t interested because she already paid off her debt
All she wanted to do was care for her daughter, who they kidnapped in order to coerce her
So she got strapped and set up her signature fatal trap to ensure his demise, the execution cleaver
A firefight ensued, shell casings flew, they both ran out of bullets on queue, she yelled it isn’t personal
Told him about her daughter and he said I wish my mother was like you and didn’t leave me nameless at a hospital
Realized this is the child she left right out the gate, considered telling him but wondered if he’d get filled with hate
Forgot the death wire that sealed fate, his last words were let’s save your girl, but her reaction was too late
