Expialidocious

Verse 1:
Hear the Reign, dropping down on windows pains
Now you know the storm is coming down your way
That means I’m impatient, getting abrasive
Unplugging myself out of the Matrix
I’m back, and I’m setting up shop
Relax, is what I will do when I drop
Dead and be stuffed in a burgundy box
And up on my way I’ll be earning my props
Whatever that means in days like these
Cause nobody ever seems to be pleased
Why would I even try to keep my peace?
Knowing your opinion won’t fulfill my needs
Fill up my pockets or change my beliefs
Help me skyrocket or give me relief
The pressure was too much when I was a teen
That’s why I started hanging out with the fiends
Till I noticed, it was bogus
Cause now I’m just constantly under hypnosis
I’m crazy already, I don’t need psychosis
I started to focus on my magnum-opus
Hook:
I’m riding, I’m rolling
I’m grinding, ‘cause I’m focused
Deciding, all my motives
I got that Expialidocious
I’m riding, I’m rolling
I’m grinding, ‘cause I’m focused
Deciding, all my motives
I got that Expialidocious
Verse 2:
I must be retarted or something like that
Cause I was so different right off the bat
They couldn’t explain what was wrong with my brain
It’s not like I’m stupid, but I might be insane
And gifted with the sight, to see through your bluff
Then I can decide, to just take a puff
Of whatever is stuffed, inside of that bong
And forget what is right, forget what is wrong
But no, I couldn’t accept that
I just knew I had to hack that
Frame of mind, you get when you’re high
So when I will need it then I will apply it
To any situation, when I am frustrated
I’ll step into my simulation
Either for guidance or just entertainment
As long as it balances out the equation
Bridge:
I’m riding
I’m rolling
I’m riding
Hook:
I’m riding, I’m rolling
I’m grinding, cause I’m focused
Deciding, all my motives
I got that Expialidocious
I’m riding, I’m rolling
I’m grinding, cause I’m focused
Deciding, all my motives
I got that Expialidocious

The Dox (feat. TH010BI)

Verse 1
Let’s welcome the man, straight from the land of the lost
Call it Rotterdam or call it the Dox
Reppin’ that 010, till nobody wants to know
what it is where we’re from (from the break of the dawn)
We burn every bridge, but the one of Erasmus (The Swan)
Cause that is my passage
To get to the swarm, when I
take a trip from the Mathenesse
Can you feel the heat and the pressure?
And do you feel the need to confess it?
We don’t believe what you speak but the actions
Will tell who the actual man with the mask is
And the reason I address this, cause it goes
Deeper than this rap shit, deeper than the subterranean tracks
of the subway trains running through the
Rotterdam sector (goddamn let’s get it)
Line A to E will take you from A to Z
You best believe, it’s all you need
You heading north to south or west to east?
It’s connected like a centipede
But they’d rather call us cockroaches
When the blocks were smoking in the center streets
We didn’t drop the focus and never lost the hope
And unexpectedly extended life expectancy
Huh, and we still around
What is left for us to fear for now?
We go bonkers like the hooligan monsters
up in the Kuip, that is Feyenoord town
We be tying it down, and should’ve known
The love is shown, through flesh and bone
And I don’t think I need to mention where
The fuck/man is I’m at when I say that I’m gone
Pre-chorus
I would like to invite you to the Dox
The spot where bombs will drop, but the people will not
And we will never walk alone in the Dox
The code is 010, welcome to the Dox baby
Hook

Verse 2
Hardcore yeah, we know for that shit
Your bastards wouldn’t even last a second
And I don’t need to have a tactic
I’m smashing reckless on fresh airmax’s
Fuck the fashion, we keep it classic
Whole lotta cameras, but we ain’t acting
We belong right where we at kid
In the backstreet, like an alley cat is
You better hold your own, in the 010
It’s all in the name and that’s close to home
We got rules, oaths, colors and codes
Rats everywhere we ain’t running with those
One on your nose is a step too far
but I like my beef served extra raw
Extra sauce, what I have for y’all
It’s the total package like Amazon
All around they heard of us
Cuz we straight up and down like the Euromast
In the Dox till they murder us
Or we burning up and then turn to dust
But till that time, I won’t change the setting
Sitting on the dock of the bay like O Redding
Where I took my first and I breathe my last
Where I kept it real, ‘tween my heels and head
Where we survive (we don’t make it out)
Barely alive (but I say it proud)
Hand me the mic and I say it loud
Can’t be alike when we shake it down
Yo, I love this place and I hate it too
Don’t know if I make it through
If I do, I do, if I don’t, it’s hopeless
In the end everybody food for the roaches
Pre-chorus
I would like to invite you to the Dox
The spot where bombs will drop, but the people will not
And we will never walk alone in the Dox
The code is 010, welcome to the Dox baby

Back on my bull, it took took some time
I needed a pause, sort out my mind
Was the crossroads with doubt inside
That fogged and blinded my sight
And I ain't the one to roll these dice
With something important at stake
This is my life we're talking about
The name is Reign, no gimmicks like Obie Trice
Ain't taking no advice without a solid ground
Cause nowadays they all got shit to say
Without earning the proper accolades
So I'll stay in my place and make waves
To top it off, I see 'em bitch a lot
My peers, the kids, adults
But do you try to fix it all?
(Stop, stop) Stop, shitting in your kitchen
Show some balls, my mission is to own it all
I can be a victim, I can be a victor
Sick and twisted I can beat the system
It's all about the code you're writing
And the plans you make
To reach your goal you need to navigate
That is the gate, to see a little straight
Watch me set the date, til my great escape
I'll buy a ton of 17 cans & loads of CaMo
I can't wait to celebrate
Will 2020 give us 20/20 vision?
Well I don't know
But I won't need that to keep my feet wet
That's fasho

Showdown

Verse 1:
Risen like a phoenix from the dust and my ashes
Stepped into the scene with a motherfucking passion
Give me that green, before I bust it like a dragon
(You know me) I have it, will never turn into a has been
Living lavish and when I get distracted
You better watch your back, I’m heading out for target practice
A necromancer, harnessing black magic
Well actually I’m perfecting my martial rap tactics
In the temple, ‘cause that is where my lab is
Off the handle and ready for that madness
Grabbing a six pack of 17 cans and that’s it
And leaving ‘fore I’m trashed and mashed up a classic
I might be savage, but I’m also systematic
And sporadically my strategies are seen as psychopathic
That’s why I like to grab the wheel and turn nomadic
With the hammer in the hand, bang the steel like a blacksmith
Hook:
It’s time for the Showdown
Well, that was profound
Yeah, it’s time for the Showdown
We ‘bout to blow out
It’s time for the
Verse 2:
I’m gifted and committed, so when I did it it’s done
My lyrics are scriptures and fit like a clip in the gun
That means I got unlimited ammunition to run with
And if you stick your nose in my business then you’ll get stung quick
Just having fun bitch, why so serious?
My lungs itch, must be from the cigarettes
Keep ‘em coming with drinks, I love killing these fifths
Doing flips, even though I tore my ligaments
Looking for gold I ain’t no coal miner
Feeling comfortable, like I’m rolling up in a lowrider
You already know that I don’t need no co-pilot
To shut it down, like I’m spreading that Corona virus
Hit man for hire, don’t spit flam but fire
Enhance my game plan, when shit hits the fan again
I innerstand what you understand, it’s simple fam
Thinking you got the better hand? Forget it man
Hook:
It’s time for the Showdown
Well, that was profound
Yeah, it’s time for the Showdown
We ‘bout to blow out
It’s time for the Showdown

Nothingness
03:38
|

Hook
I've been falling deeper into the clutches of Nothingness
& I have tried to reach out but lately it's been too comfortable
Cause I don't have to deal with human beings and I'm loving it
Out here up in Nothingness, cause out here I do not exist
I've been falling deeper into the clutches of Nothingness
& I have tried to reach out but lately it's been too comfortable
Cause I don't have to deal with human beings and I'm loving it
Out here up in Nothingness, cause out here I do not exist
Verse
You ever lost your way?
To the point that there is nothing to say
There are billions of words, but no combination
To explain exactly the way that you feel
At first you just deal with it
Try again next time
I might find the right formulation in my next rhyme
So, I let the pen fire as my pastime
Then slowly but surely it starts to sink in
That the language of thought is foreign
To the way that we speak, the way that we act
So, then we seek other ways to express ourselves
In the hope anything comes close
To the tales we're trying to tell
Cause a man unheard is a man
Who cries and a man who yells
The defense mechanism wants to
Prevent all pain so the lies excel
You're hurting inside, like a
Burning fire & denying the smell
You say that you're fine, to the people around you
While you're fighting the spell
Now you're making them nervous to speak on their burdens
So, they might as well
Return the favor, ‘cause they don't want to be
Inferior & then feel like they're replaceable
Cause we feel like our identity is meant to be
The key to show the world there's just one of us
When it's lost, we go up in dust
When it's lost, we lose all our trust
When it's lost, we just lose our cause
When it's lost, we're lost
& it feels impossible
To start where we started before
And that thought right there, is part of the problem because
Why would you start at a point that was destined to fall?
We must learn, from our mistakes
Make the right wrongs & the wrongs right as we pave the way
(pave the way)
& in the meantime, I'm planning my great escape
Hook
I've been falling deeper into the clutches of Nothingness
& I have tried to reach out but lately it's been too comfortable
Cause I don't have to deal with human beings and I'm loving it
Out here up in Nothingness, cause out here I do not exist
I've been falling deeper into the clutches of Nothingness
& I have tried to reach out but lately it's been too comfortable
Cause I don't have to deal with human beings and I'm loving it
Out here up in Nothingness, cause out here I do not exist
