Intro (K.I.N.E.T.I.K., cuts by Bombeardo):
Yo, the blind spot
Brought to you by Paradox and K.I.N.E.T.I.K
Imperial on production
Listen...
Verse 1 (K.I.N.E.T.I.K.):
You hear the influx of cuts promoting sex, drugs, rape, and murder
No limit to the nihilism, we just take it further
Blood is spilling from the pen to the pavement
And yet we dismiss it as just plain entertainment
"Black Lives Matter." Before it was a slogan
You never spoke or even wrote with any pride or purpose
No remorse or emotion
What about the black people you've killed for real and inside your verses?
You're a hypocrite, but I'm the biggest one
Cuz every time I heard your death threats
Coming through my headsets I expressed, "This is fun."
I was desensitized to genocide, but when a friend had died
I chalked it up as just a dumb mistake
I wish the sound of all them shots had come from one of the tapes
But when we put him in the ground, it felt like time stopped
Cuz life was imitating art, but my heart was the blind spot
Hook:
(Paradox)
Spit that self-righteousness, but every minute I spent writing this
Could’ve been with my wife and kids. Yeah, that’s the blind spot
(K.I.N.E.T.I.K.)
That's the blind spot. That's the blind spot
Open your eyes and then you'll see the blind spot
(Paradox)
Been known to explode at random when my girls throw a tantrum
Which shows I hold to lower standards. Yeah, that’s the blind spot
(K.I.N.E.T.I.K.)
That's the blind spot. That's the blind spot
Open your eyes and then you'll see the blind spot
Verse 2:
(Paradox)
Oh, you the Christian confessing how blessed is His way
All about that outcast, the wretched, and dismayed
How our wages of sin He claimed as His debt to pay
That is unless you’re gay. Yeah, that’s the blind spot
(K.I.N.E.T.I.K.)
So you're the chauvinistic pig
Who disrespected his woman and hit his kids
You're blaming every one else, but sadly it's you
Now your kids are getting grown and they're dealing
With their daddy issues. And that's the blind spot
(Paradox)
Oh, you the conscious rapper on that elevate your mind tip
Fighting through non-violence, while enslaved to nice kicks
With no thought for the costs of sweatshop labor’s tight fist
Despite what the price is. Yeah, that’s the blind spot
(K.I.N.E.T.I.K.)
So you're the healthy advocate that lives in the gym
Getting big and trim with cardio and double figure sets
Fruit and veg in effect. But so is your addiction
To liquor and cigarettes. So I guess that's a blind spot
Hook:
(Paradox)
Been known to explode at random when my girls throw a tantrum
Which shows I hold to lower standards. Yeah, that’s the blind spot
(K.I.N.E.T.I.K.)
That's the blind spot. That's the blind spot
Open your eyes and then you'll see the blind spot
(Paradox)
Spit that self-righteousness, but every minute I spent writing this
Could’ve been with my wife and kids. Yeah, that’s the blind spot
(K.I.N.E.T.I.K.)
That's the blind spot. That's the blind spot
Open your eyes and then you'll see the blind spot
Verse 3 (Paradox):
Not a fan of Pac, yet my man’s got me peeping “Keep Ya Head Up.”
Thinking it’s fresh, but then the CD proceeds to the next cut
And gone is the empathetic message to spread love
Back with the exact symptoms that had these women left stuck
So I been reflecting on the mess of disconnections
That infect our perspectives, yet are never questioned
Like my Christian brethren, reppin’ that “Prince of Peace,”
But boosting UFC like brutality’s meant to be
Where men turn into beasts and beat each other senseless
But we turn the other cheek and seek to defeat our self-interests?
Plus, it’s offensive to cuss, cuz God forbids it?
But we gossip with a vengeance and mock the optimistic
It comes across pretentious and hypocritical
Like dismissing the miserable, while insisting on rituals
Now, I ain’t saying your peripheral’s hazy, but mine’s not
I got plenty conflicting visuals caught in my blind spot
