lyrics

DID YOU CATCH THAT NAME? 

I heat the decibels
next, the beats collect, bassflex in crucibles, phrase deft
acts devised as metallurgical, precise with the slice like a knife - surgical
cuts beyond the merely visible, check yourself, this is integral
all in, indivisible and mad classic y'all, advances maximal
cool cat, true that, who's that?
Zone's back, act like you knew that
skewer pop hip-hop and no-skill rap
cure that with more funk than a sewer rat
pure fact, you need to believe
I weave the threads of dreams that you perceive
invigorating and untamed, the selfsame
full circle from Samhain to Beltane

fresh soundset, sub-bass vibrates
reflects us, check this, dilates the mind's eye
plexus, night time - dream time, next it's flight time
soulsound live, the new way
sway, Timezone, new gates open now
move, the thru way, dirty south
did you catch that name?

it's the next installment, commencement
originators ascendant, exquisitely blended
intended as observant, through a lens of abstraction and stylistic swerving
worlds woven in words, spoken in smoke until the whole verse is cured
prepared in heat, seasoned by the flame, primed to rise again
reach and strive again, resonant, person to person, reverberant
imperturbable dream interpreter - ephemeral, forever impermanent
serving the urgency of lessons to learn in this
I'll never endeavor to threaten the feminine
that's just the kind of man I am
a man among boys, toys and wack MCs
absentee dads whose raps are hackneyed  

fresh soundset, sub-bass vibrates
reflects us, check this, dilates the mind's eye
plexus, night time - dream time, next it's flight time
soulsound live, the new way
sway, Timezone, new gates open now
move, the thru way, dirty south
did you catch that name?

love to infinity, love the asymmetry
line to line, life can turn on a dime
I learn all the time, never conforming
never stop burning, on with the journey
beatblends from Timezone LaFontaine
mad sun, did you catch that name?
lone gunner, longtime up and comer
getting no younger but still got the hunger
I'm gonna flex expressive forever
your soul shines, my daughter, a treasure
I write rhymes to resound with you
when you're all grown and about to move
you'll listen to these beats, rhymes and shouts I do
and contemplate the paths and routes I choose
here's what I'll work to hear, no doubt I do
pops, your lyrics are truth, I'm proud of you

fresh soundset, sub-bass vibrates
reflects us, check this, dilates the mind's eye
plexus, night time - dream time, next it's flight time
soulsound live, the new way
sway, Timezone, new gates open now
move, the thru way, dirty south
did you catch that name?
