All lyrics written by me. Produced by Screwaholic of Anno Domini Beats. The ever amazing AnnaB was kind enough to bless me with her vocals on the chorus. First collaboration of many to come!

Just a poetry geek that happens to also like rapping.
Hello. I am simply a beaner that likes to rap. I wouldn't even call myself a rapper per se, I'm a writer. However, ever since I heard "Hard Knock Life" by Jay-Z when I was 5, I fell in love with hip-hop. I could tell you many things, hype myself up to make me look like a star...but I will let the music speak for itself. I could tell you a bunch of stuff about my tracks but...just shut up and listen, shut up and listen son.

Lyrics
It's a new battle in an ancient war Broken hearts leave shrapnel Digging at your core They want inside the world I keep a lock on Keep knocking at the door Every key's been tried before-except for yours To put it simply human relations are tricky Girls now diss me with the same lips they used to kiss me Cuz they swiftly forget about the good when things get risky & only Recollect those memories dimly But it's not gender specific, dudes are also guilty It's always easy to play the rendition Of a great friend when life shows a sunny disposition But as soon as I face harsh conditions All those who had my back are suddenly missing So is it wrong of me to be full of suspicion? Or did I pick the right decision To avoid further stressing and stop second guessing Every choice that I make I feel like there's treachery around every turn that I take It's a habitat full of dangerous snakes The windows to my soul are now dim and opaque I'm not as cold as I seem, I just can't handle more heartache It's a new battle in an ancient war Broken hearts leave shrapnel Digging at your core They want inside the world I keep a lock on Keep knocking at the door Every key's been tried before-except for yours I'm jaded and often cynical, that's something I never denied People ask me how I came to be this way but it's hard to describe Suffice it to say that it's how I was shaped by life I've seen too much and heard too many lies Rough relationships have ruined the romance software inside Now I'm a robot reprogrammed to respond to I love you with whys As innocence dies it gives rise To a bitterness whose advice is to cut off ties With anyone before they can get inside And change the weather of your inner world Into harsh and stormy skies Where the rain comes out your eyes And damnit I've tried Not to paint you all with the same brush But it's also for your own good Cuz I usually taint everything I touch So avoid a hard fall Brick by brick I've built this wall Cuz now I'm afraid to feel Any f*** ing thing at all They say home is where the heart is But I'm feeling heartless Bridges burned are the only Light inside this darkness Still on this road, still all alone Roam from zone to zone Until the day I find a home (X2) It's a new battle in an ancient war Broken hearts leave shrapnel Digging at your core They want inside the world I keep a lock on Keep knocking at the door Every key's been tried before-except for yours

Hey Capo hows things, just thought i'd pop on here to give ya latest track a listen. Awsome awsome track, so moving and the girl singing is so dreamy her voice is so spiritual that i could just listen to her humming or just whaling over a orchestral track :D now for you i must say that when you start i thought i no your lyrics didnt seem to fit in with the beat again it sounded like you was trying to cram so many words into a 4 bar beat BUT i re-spun it twice to listen back and you know what it does actualy fit, its just you have your own vibe flowing that it took me 3 listens to re-alise im listening to to THE REVOLUTIONARY MC lo MC being that you Mc, mc is very quick and thinks up lyrics in a room with just a slipper and a ashtray but can make a story out of what you got Haha anyway brilliant track and love everything about it, keep it up chief! Karlos Im working on a brasil house track it should be up today, will keep you updated

Another good track. I feel the same way about this as I do about Anxiety. I hear a lot of vocabulary and good word usage just had trouble hearing everything you said. ___________ Thanks for the Feedback. That beat on the Kobe track aint really my thing either. I only like the bass. I just the thought the hook sounded dope. Ppl seem to like that Apostle track Im Glad you like it too Fam.

Overall, a good song. If a song can keep my attention the whole way through, then I like it. I am notorious for listening to only 20 seconds before changing songs if it is not what I feel like listening to.

Capo......I think this is my favorite song from you so far dude. Verses were on point, and the hook from Anna fit perfectly onto the track, and also the whole story behind the track was very believable, great job man! B
