Text: Mars Ill. Backbreakanomics. Enterchange.


(Verse #1)
I got seven ways to say something different/
If you?re allergic to the truth, then I suggest you keep your distance/
Plug your ears and listen to the sound of a hard heart/
Whose trust was pulled one too many times by these card sharks/
I spark a charge that darts across the charts/
Set far apart from the garbage they?re calling our art/
I start a lot of controversy. Afraid that we?re dissing you?/
From the big willie cats to the underground and miniscule?/
Honestly, it?s anyone polluting the subliminal/
If that?s you, retribution is unconditional/
I?m willing to commit career suicide/
If I know that it could fill all your emptiness inside/
But I?m confident that top-billing and ripping the veil/
Is my job and heart throbs with all it entails/
Can?t fail, found success when feet hit the trail/
Dues paid? Yes ya?ll, check?s in the mail?

(Hook)
It?s all about timing and it?s about time/
To get inside your spine and change your state of mind/
You waiting for the music that you need to remember?/
Forget all the rest, ?cause that?s when we enter/
Right about now, we step into your space/
Run up on your intellect and look you in the face/
Are you tired of being lied to? That?s all we?re asking/
It?s time for a change, Mars ILL, enter the dragon?

(Verse #2)
We did a show but nobody showed up/
We did another couple. Ten people came to show love/
Not trying to blow up, just need to make this music/
Can?t explain it. It?s just like I?m breathing when I do it/
Keeping muted?s not an option. It?s more like a death wish/
Got verses trapped inside and I gotta let them exit/
The curse I?m blessed with, I consider very precious/
Proceed with caution. This could crack your solar plexus/
Next, we did a few hundred shows in a row/
Hit the road time and again and watched the revolution grow/
Keeping it moving to help you establish what?s what/
Watch the masses mouth the words to ?Sphere? and ?Love?s Not?/
Wait at the bus stop with agenda in hand/
Yelling, ?Bust shots in the air, not into your fellow man!?/
Tell a friend, tell a foe and I?ll tell a few of mine/
We can change the whole world one soul at time?

(Hook)


(Bridge)
M-A-R-S-I-Double L/
Rocking the bells, so go home and tell/
Everyone on your block we got records to sell/
M-A-R-S-I-Double L/
M-A-R-S-I-Double L/
Rocking the bells, so go home and tell/
Everyone on your block who taught you how to spell/
M-A-R-S-I-Double L?

(Verse #3)
Yeah, you talking loud, but you ain?t saying no thang/
Throw slang across the map and watch both coasts change/
Grow fame one step at a time. Start with no name/
?Breathe Slow? banging in the front row sang by/
Everyone who came to the show, change the old game/
See everybody doesn?t flow the same/
So take your gold fangs and fronts and say what you want/
But understand that I?ve held your number from the jump/
It?s something sort of resembling your new favorite record and rap group/
Grab raw skill and toss it at you/
Get under your skin like a tattoo with permanent results/
That?s provided you have a pulse/
Full of useful information on life, love and hatred/
Learning from mistakes, the breaks and proper placement/
Knowing when to dish it out and knowing when to take it/
God is the answer when all else is makeshift?
