Ripe Like the Present Lyrics by T H R O N E (Duo)

STRANGE MEAT

2023

[Intro: Colonel Campbell]
In the current digitized world, trivial information is accumulating every second, preserved in all its triteness
[Verse 1: Hayatheus]
I've been the sole person in the room with an inkling of
A different perspective
I've been the soil left inside, I've been the coil gift to God
Buying hands that feed me with no protection
A parent needing, heart and mind keening
For just a part of life's meaning, hard to find peace when
Darker nights keeping me from lighter mindsets
Part of my chest beats for myself
Part of my keyless chest with no will
Sardonic self-defeat is kind of self-help skinning
Sell myself low, no winning
Killing cold feelings to selfish hit ceilings
Turns out the best pill of all, sleep till over
Lying head to toe, stand upright and thinking sober
Shit!
[Verse 2: Hayatheus]
I could live a life like you
I could choose not to, not out of spite but desire
For a better kind of resolve to fire my belly, die I need to feel it
Gotta get my homies with it, I can only lead you to the water
Get you a glass another, please drink this fucking water
Need us up like quarters, need to scrape from falling
T-off I call it, I be up and balling
Come with me brother, stall it, put it on the table all in
I put it on, my neighbors call it, like damn you rapping hot nice
Finna evaporate any night, never see me step through city lights
Imma need me a better mic, rap until I got me a better life
[Verse 3: YVHIKV]
Yeah, need my presence verified
I need my presence verified till I abide in the light
The rifle's cold dead, like moonlight when we make bodies move
You're like the voice that keeps it rolling
See the good even when we blindfolded
Time runs slow so it's mostly on your side
Good to step right up, good to focus more inside
Get to know your strengths, best to find the ones who know
This life runs slow, but it's poorly when I'm done
Ain't nothing so ripe like the presence, so free to fly
It must be heaven, this must be heaven
[Outro: Colonel Campbell & Rose]
Never fading, always accessible
Rumors about petty issues, misinterpretation, slander
All this junk data, persevered in an unfiltered state
Growing at an alarming rate
