Undefined

Let me hear you all shout for the end of an era
Despite what you thought, good or bad, it's all the same area
It's all the same school, it's all the same air we breathed
We've all deceived, received, and we all did read, indeed
So let's Speak about our Part-Time selves and well
At least we didn't star cross, but only the clocks will tell
If we will excel like we did here in our halls
Trained to be better than all but we never did fall
300 odd strong and memories into a song
I might do this entire thing wrong
I hope in the end, you'll still enjoy it
The beats been deployed without a decoy, this
Is the legendary tale from 08 to 2012
Everyone around us so proud, can't you tell?
Started in academy, hormones we started battling
Oh god is she mad at me? Sarcasm was used against this beast
Roam from class to class like a pack of nomads
We weren't all rotten eggs waiting to go bad
But know that we dove into thorns and survived the cuts
This stuff in turn have made our walks into struts
We stride and glide and we moonwalked across
Diplomas in old English, it's time to feel like a goddamn boss
Cooked up something delicious inside of our brains
These thoughts cannot be stopped, watch out for our train
Rode freely like Tri-Met passes
All of us spectacles like a pair of glasses
We outlasted an entire chemistry dynasty
We voted this Asian Kid to be Cleveland's majesty
Raised enough funds to change our world
Convinced everyone the wisdom of our pearls
When pigs fly we would be the best in the blue
Well who knew, we do, in 09 Swine Flu
Assembled in the gym, got into that spirit
Green and gold, warriors, let me hear it!
Snagged a few 1st places along the way
When we first started you couldn't pay them to stay
They used to think that these teens were irrelevant
Now let's prove to them the truest intelligence
Out of the 22nd and 24th president
Let's give them something to mull over decadent
A dozen years in the making, this is our moment
Taking everything from teachers for components
Our opponents have lost in the face of our confidence
Saying how great we are is a truth and a compliment!
And on top of this, we won't ever be stopping this
It's time to roll out, in our prime: Optimus
We used to be the future, now we are the present
Time to make the world better for our descendents
And listen to this message, I feel blessed I could tell it
We sincerely have grown and developed
Each and one of you have made my time here phenomenal
Through the tragedies, the travesties and everything comical
The best time of our lives? Perhaps for some
But each one of you is in charge of your freedom
We never realize, but the moment you are born
Is the moment you've entered the real world, so these real eyes
Analyze through the real lies and we've been alive
For at least 17 years, so let's get wise
Take one step further into our Hero's Journey
Because we can all be macs like Bernie
Started from nothing and we wrote this manual
And now look at us: the hungriest Cannibals
More decorated than our halls during the autumn
How amazing how we rose from the very bottom
This is the end of something very incredible
We're diving into something so intangible
But I know one fact, this here graduation cap
Is something too awesome. Now THAT'S a rap.

Candles at 3AM

[Verse 1]
Paradoxical and oxymoronical, adjust my monocle
Stop and go through vestibules of my chronicle
Honest though I'm writing my entire heart down
Combining and mashing syllables and words to new compounds
It'll start now and wow as I lay down my verbs and nouns
Astound as the crowd crowds the stage as I talk around
The truth and make the ugly into something suitable
This is going past just some beautiful musical
Omnipresent author that writes the decisions
Precision with the pen like the scalpel's incision
Leave haikus for you at your grave and tombstone
Inscribe the groans against the air with a melancholy tone
And instead of a rose, I'll leave you a prose
Letters and words make up my being from top to toes
Trapped in a cage but I can deal with my curse
Come here and I'll show you how to compose a hearse

[CHORUS]
Sit down here and pick up the pen
Write me out until I meet the bloodiest end
Sit down here and build me a verse
Shed every cell and let the poems just burst

Sit down here and let the quill dance
Create for me the most tragic of romance
Sit down here and read the many stories
I'll never ever fit in just one category

[Verse 2]
Trials and tribulations, different tasks every day
Whatever happened to work hard to play?
They did say that things would get easier and harder
Difficult to make a difference unless you're a martyr
Work smarter or do it with more blood, sweat and tears?
Ghosts leave on my window of consciousness too many smears
So I wipe them off with my notepad and blade
Remember to forget and I look back on what's made
Make it uncomfortable for the listeners to read
Make it confusing for the watchers to hear, indeed
I've written my epitaph in the lines of these songs
Etched my bones with all of what's left and wrong
They tell me bloody write, so I jot with all my strength
Crimson in the horizon of my pages in red paint
With this weapon, I'm anything I can imagine to be
At the end of the day, I'm thinking "Who, me?"

[CHORUS]

Sit down here and pick up the pen
Write me out until I meet the bloodiest end
Sit down here and build me a verse
Shed every cell and let the poems just burst

Sit down here and let the quill dance
Create for me the most tragic of romance
Sit down here and read the many stories
I'll never ever fit in just one category

Cashlete

[CHORUS] x2
E-C-O-N-O-M-Y
I'm on your screens, I'm televised
R-E-S-O-U-R-C-E
Always in style, never scarcity

[Verse 1]
I lay it all bear so I'm more than stern
Step on the scene and wreck the aggregate supply curve
Cause there ain't no buying me, supplying me
With so many rhymes, there ain't no trying me
Kind of like bartering, you're so outdated
Just like the consumers of this world: you're overrated!
My balance sheet is so condensed in assets
Collecting more green than cabbages
I'm savage and mean, but don't call me average
Make a few withdrawals because it's all cash, kid
Hot commodity, please don't bother me
If I fall off I land on a pile of capital honestly
People look at me and show interest obviously
Probably in control like monetary policy
Obsolete, I spit cease and desist orders
Stop before you step on my lyrical mortar
I'm demand, I'm the man: Amanda Bynes
Please abide to me like the law of supply
Running circles around this life cycle hypothesis
No I'm not a prophet, but yes I do profit

[Verse 2]
1 for the money and 2 for the money
I used to write jokes, ain't this thing funny?
Economic theory, economic models
Buy the things I want that's an economic throttle
Stared at by a green face, give a discount rate
I'm not making it rain, I'm making people hydrate
I don't inflate, I just deflate egos
The people knows my worth is worth in euros
Entrepreneur with a firm understanding
Too fly in this thing so in 2020 I'll be landing
Excess reserves are for you to conserve
But I'll make real sure that my expert reverb
Will repeat my money. I'm implemented
Way too stocky, I'm a real good investment
My ability of efficiency has credibility
Gold standard, yes I'm the epitome
Employed now and forever in the long run
Cash rules everything around me: M1

[CHORUS]
E-C-O-N-O-M-Y
I'm on your screens, I'm televised
R-E-S-O-U-R-C-E
Always in style, never scarcity

C-U-R-R-E-N-C-Y
Money talks so I've got a good reply
M-A-R-K-E-T
Put me in your team without any liability

C-A-P-I-T-A-L
Call me spreadsheet, I just excel
O-P-T-I-M-U-M
Double my weight in precious gems

S-U-R-P-L-U-S
Past, future, present, so in tense
A-B-S-O-L-U-T-E
Advantage is handed right to me
Handed right to me!
