lyrics

1
Dispatches from the darkest recesses
Received intermittent transmission
Shortwave radio
shorthand planned as code
Foreboding sense that all of this been fleeting or told
Bobbing and weaving against torrential tirades
as last bastions of intelligencia migrate
Recurring migraines.
No need to hydrate this severely dry wit
They insist we have so much in common,
but they just common
and honestly? AINT. IT.
Shift uncomfortably in social settings
When do we Begin the blood letting?
No sense in vetting a guest list that’s forever nill
For real ... most comfortable still in sparsely lit rooms.
Consumed in thoughts that echoed off walls eternal
We Reverberation of generations that breathe within these verbals.
Culture kept internal
Only meant for those within our circle
somehow trust been compromised
Dust settled now the design was optimized
Colonizers fear the colonized
The Fool’s gold they stole, oxidized.
Never realized The true treasure lies within the blood they spilt and ostracized
The true treasure lies within the blood they spilt and ostracized
The true treasure lies within the blood they spilt and ostracized
The true treasure lies within the blood they spilt and ostracized
The true treasure lies within the blood they spilt
2
Been demonized for a quarter century
Revised charts
align stars but we still off course
Contrived bars’ll sound forced
These flow with complexity of cardiovascular system
Inherit wisdom synced to simplistic rhythm
Spitting truth was a given.
Inner visions came to fruition
I fucks wit the handful that listened
Found my tribe to survive a joyless division.
Redefined our traditions
Weight of the world only made my backbone stiffen.
Out lasted the bastards that lacked ambition
Let me stop:
The Flowers are for the florists
These sonics is for the rawest.
Fathered this shit like Osiris did Horus.
Fathered this shit like Osiris did Horus.
The true treasure lies within the blood they spilt and ostracized (Repeat)

808s in August announced the next
mic cords like umbilicals wrapped around they necks.
These connects mad subliminal and too complex
Forced to provide breadcrumbs that some digest
This rap so we forced to guess who dies next.
They taking headshots now so fuck that vest.
Violence begets violence, remain unimpressed
There’s No end of my world, but I digress.
Cyclical. It’s all cyclical.

mars kumari Oakland, California

When Jacques Derrida defined the lingering Marxism of late-Capitalist society as hauntological, mashing together the words haunting and ontology, he couldn’t have imagined what the era might sound like. Mars Kumari captures the grief and grit of loss we all feel now, haunted as we are by what was here and is now missing."
