there’s a jungle out there..
there’s a jungle out there. .
the pHool starts
his path again
with just his sack of thoughts
and a pen
for a pHriend
if liepH is a game, then iiim playin
iii sapHari like Jumanji
while iii Super what iiim Saiyan
there’s a jungle out there
but there's a tiger in here
beware…
theres a jungle out there
beware…
beware …
the pHeminine nature
of indigo man
is just a Bi–product
of his intuition. . .
iii always knew
a building was a person
but iii didn't know
it, too, was
soul searchin..
be aware
be aware..
nobody told
which is which
or what-a-way to go
so iii built my selpH up high
to getta betta view
the pHool starts…
iii know there’s a Jungle out there..
but there's a tiger in here..
beware!
..
…
. . .
so iiim
animating my own pHolklore
with everything that iii hope for..
there’s a Jungle out there..
but be aware
there's a tiger in here..

iiiwanna
anime be
ani-mating- me
til that 2D is all iii sea
Anime be the ideal
that 2D too real
Even though iii came pHrom the east of the map
my mind been pHarr East since way before that
iii been livin AfterLives
after mine is cracked
And this the hardest one iii got
but they ain't broke me yet
and iii ain't never been a pHan
of acquiring wealth
iii guess iii never saw the point
of tryna put a price on my selpH
but Kakashi actually taught me
how to Rock the Bells
And they be tollin out for me
so MothapHuck ya selpH
and since my daddy bust a nut
iii broke out my shell
and the more iii grow up
the more iii know my selpH!
All my LiepH iii been talented
resented the need to be persistent
then iii lost my tooth—LiepH got real as shit
Lucky y'all get to witness it..
but its the pHate that iii was given
so iiima live it like iiim pimpin'
pitch my tent up in the cut
then we spark that pHlame up
break down the story bout
how a iii pHeL up
I'm just chuckn sticks in the flame
just chuckn sticks n the flame…
iii said iii got a WhoLe sea of Tree in me
but iiim just chuckn the sticks in the pHLame..
jus chuckin stix in the pHlame
iiim just drawing pics in the sand
my brain more pHocused than a sniper's aim
but iiima jus chuck the stix in the pHLame
a brotha got 9 chahkras open
--tell me, what exactly were u hoping?
a single tear drop can move an ocean
that's why iii always tread light
everytime iiim breast strokin...
iii always rock two hats
iiim too ahead of my time..
and these xtra two iii's
depHlect the knives at my spine
and if you read all my tweets on web––so hard,
then you got birdcaged if you got thus pHarr..
iii said it's not about getting what you came pHor
but coming pHor who you came pHor..
not sure if that's a metapHor
but that's not what it was meant pHor..
the majority
of my story
is HISstory
while MYstory?
still a mystery.

reel/pHake
being hueMan being seem kinda mean to me
pHront on the pHakery when real ain't what it's cracked to be
like crack in veins
iiim cracking synapses mayne
tap in your brain and get them dreams pHlowin again
iiima sub-conscious intellectual
hyper awake like yogananda on aderol
stuck in the red like a matador
raze up debt like bull-dozer
as I pull the bud closer
pHorgot your name but baby please come closer
that's what iii told her
she swear iii was so nice, last night,
when iii wasn't sober.
and you were so wife, plus tight,
but now it's over:
iiim not bout to give up my money pHolder
jus so iii can have some bird perched up on my shoulder
being HueMan being seem kinda mean to me
but if iii ain't that way
then they would just be mean to me.
you pHeel me?
it’s that real meets pHake
that pHake so reel
it got the MAss appeal
it’s that reel so pHake
that pHake so real it makes the MAsss pHeeL
iii rather be 2D
and spread out to inpHiniti
then be 3D
and weighed down by that gravity
that's why
iiim Super Saiyan everything
in Tw0-SIXTEENs
and iiim bout to split these verses
like Vegeta's BigBang
in theory
theoretically you can't get near me
my atoms practically
dissipate at lightning rates
don't be IRRATE
if hueMans are just creatures of habit
if you don't have it
then got-damn it
better go grab it!
my imag-i-nation
a nation of images
a thousand bars pHor every pic
tell me how you gon explain it?
or contain it?
And being HueMan being
still seem
kinda trendy
guess iiim a NeauxBien,
tell me:
can you pHux wimmie?

oldHead
all my liepH iii been a ole head
so dead
so close to dead
that evry time iii lay my head
iii turn the muthapHuckn ground into a death bed
so close to dead
that ev’ry time iii sea a mirror
got a skull for a head
got a sickle for an arm
-- kinda prosthetic is that?
so iii put the hoodie on
just to walk in public
but now a ni66a Treyvon
--Eric Garn’
--Swear to gawd, yO!
the shoe really pHits..
so close 2D.ead
like L.A.zarus
b'fo he raised a pHist
out the eARTh surpHace
or like a pHit pacipHist
wit a pHist in his chest
--no breast
jussa johnny cage chest
mad depressed
tell me: if he blew his last breath
yO! did he blow it?
swear to god
all the cops
got me so distressed
got me thinking that iii need a vest
to slip out my address
got me scheming on a gun
to protect my neck
and iii was just a normal kid
tryna make it big.
but now they got me in a cell
pHeeling small as shiit.
–thought iii was off this shit!?
—ima artist bitch!
anime-ing ev'ry moment
to escape 'the pits'
–i–mage–in the Ritz
or Luffy wit the shits
and the penitentiary
wasn't on my bucket list
but they got me raising pHists
so iiim bout to pass this wrist
like a fuckin Panther pHist
to a pHake politishh
SharaPova servin it
and iiim
so.close.to.dead
iii-wish-iii-had-lost-my-head
it's like iii got this Ice
in my veins instead
of the blood currently
rushing to your head
and this current sea, around me
drowning out my regrets
damn, iii wonder what the AfterLife is
planning next...
so dead
that a brother barely here
like my body almost clear
so iii live without pHear
so dead
iiim pHloatin up in the air
but since time don't exist
iiima always be Here
it's like iiim BlessedCoastBrooklynBeastingg..
Y'all don't even know the meaning:
what else you gon be when u ain't eatingg
at the Table while the world is pHeastinn..?
nigga..!!
v2.
so close to dead
like a poster kid
on a milk carton
my mind so missing
—like a monk on a mission
meditating on a mountains
stuck between two decisions
–dam, iiim spittin.
—So CLose to dead
kamikaze or a nazi instead
like dante
pHLames around me
phucked up in the head
like sysyphus
iiim rippin this
with MAss appeal
like d’angelo
my tide is Lowe
tell me how that pHeeL?
it's like iii lived this liepH befo'
but just like you
iii don't kno what's in store
so iiim livin every moment like a pHireworK
and when they look back on it
they kno
iii put in WORK!
break:
for what its worth:
im reppin blakKage to the dirt
krystallizin energy from birth
indigo's manifest the earth.
reppin blakKage pHrom the birth
indigo's manifest your worth
krystallyzing energy pHrom earth
when you become a diamond
don't pHorget the dirt!
outro:
iii said iiim so close to dead
it’s like iiim up in heaven
carrying on and on..
with Juan the Don
ya tu Sabé ALL my brethren
plus they women ––
and they star children
Smilin'
again,
again,
cups overpHlowing
till this 9th cloud dissolves back into the ocean
— a ni66a got 9 chahkras open
tell me, What exactly were you hopin' Sun?
don't make me hafta Benjamin the Button
—ya styles weak, holmie stop pHrontin'
—a ni66a got 9 chahkras open
tell me What exactly were you hopin' Sun?
don't make me AndreBenjamin the Button
—ya styles weak, holmie stop pHrontin'
so close to Dead
like a Rev sittin up
in his own Coffin,
while it's descending and
time ain't re-wind-ing
watch my soul ascend
and the light will bend
to mend all that was taken..
iii pray im pHorgiven
ever since a Kid
my mind been
old as shit
Sew, Cut with the cloth
of the King Ancients
ain’t no replacement.

weriiide
U re-mind me of my—
SELpH
You re-mind me of my—
WEALTH
and iii wanna write it
as we ride..
we ride
we ride
we ride
we ride
as this road stretches
bepHore us
the bend is all we sea
as this gravity holds us
will you hold me..?
as we..
as we ride..
we riiide..
the world unpHurls before uss. .
coolin iii with shade just like a lash
preppin le Prince for reign call her golash
oh f’Loash––evry convo my chakras washed
pHortified, ready to shine
open eyelâsh
oh my gosh!
this pHall
happened in a pHlash
brightend this boy's soul
like Saul back in damascus
but iii digress
when–R-iii's–crossed
time paused
our souls intertwined with the gods
but being hueMan being
is so hard
iii Ssewed my seeds with all my deeds
in hopes of harvesting your heart
-brain pHart-
iii guess iii shoulda played my part
instead of playing with your heart
iii remember when
we used to watch the sun set
and set goals
sit n laugh
as the sun rose
and who'da known
that as time flown
our pHates required us apart
like the sword & the stone
that inner eye
had to grow
lo-tus unpHold
i-i- had to Rome
get high
get Stoned
and thru the pain of all my travels
iii expanded my dome
and like prodigal Xtraterrestrials
iii had to
pHone home.
to-you
——the wolfe
lets take our pack to the seas
and plant our trees
with Unaccustomed Earth
underneath our knees
tell me
are these even
possibilities..?
tell me
is having seeds
the only way we manipHest
our destinies?
nebula goddess, you're the oddest:
im an artist
you’re the hottest
what an honour
to be bound to ya
your presence is my present
—times' weird when you're not present
iii swear you got it
you got
that vooDoo
U my e-ri-ka
ba-Du
you make
my heart
go
kaBLOOM
so how could iii
get close
to you?
now we rollin up the stream
eve's bayou
and i'll be happy living
after after lives
with you..
as
we
ride.

meLT-uP cHRONIcle
all iii's on phel
as iii dwell on the eiffel
as my iii's melt
eye think iii just dissolved meye sense of selpH
yet my mind still swells
like coins menace-skidin
off a wishing well
iiim like the toad in the well
but iii fell uP
that's why iii: pHel
you ever try to get your dome blown?
..like the worlds just a bioTerror-dome?
or try to roam home
and get stoned.
..guess when in Rome..
you gotta terra-form
water water
water everywhere
iii havent had a sip
water water WAR
everywhere
iiim bout to take a dip
pHel deep into the pHrequent sea
and it's going swimmingly..
iii broke away from my own ego
iii leggo
like an ego
iii love that gouda cheese
—no prego
life - minus the strife
SEG-way ho.
that's when iii pHelt my eyes go
brain movie pHast
time move slow
her apHro lookin like a halo
so iii broke my game down
like Lego
the angel melted in my arms like play dough
while the trees and the G.I. G's waving "aYo"
my oculus is shifting
meye 'iris has gone missin
and Osiris is in my vision..
could it be my indigo intuition??
rodEo just a rOdeo
pHairfax pHulla anthrax
iiim blowin O's in melrose
hittin the Hammer
while overPassin the pHoes
hollin at some hoes
what do YoU suppose?
K-Town a melt-down
but LINE never let me down
while my mac hack tracks in the studio
my kevin heart is on frio
iiim feeling like Neo
iii cut my astro-knot
was tired of being sew Earthy
so now Sun& Moon
lookin like 6:30
iiim in a vacuum
tell me, did you heard me?
iii never pHollow
xcept on instagram
or goin line for line
on half of 8 grams
damn.
jus drank a glass o' money
so iiim soarin
a sea of green
shores me up ev’ry morning
if iii
want my money to pHlow
like water
then iii outta
have the aura
of an otter
*get it?
but iiim not who iii used to be
iiim a tie ––knot who iii usta be
cos ain't nobody else using me
so iiim naught!
––yo!
who iii used to be?
a brotha got 9 chahkras open
––tell me, what exactly were u hoping?
never going for selpH
that just resist
but iii persist
so long as we
All exist...
so watch time untwist
while your mind gits.. .. like GRITS
– bent
the viral spiral of survival
is not what Darwin meant
when he was talkin bout The-pHit-Test
have you passed it?
iii could be your wind-up bird
and we can herald out our chronicles
to shores unheard…
it all phel
as iii dwell
on the eiffel

shot outs to Koo.
josh, i'm Roman that MZM, too

Just chuckin stix in the pHlame
burnt away so don't remember my name
All my life iii been ashy
so with the ash iii remain
while iii just chuck these sticks in the pHlame
whoever thought i-i-i phel thus pharr
i-i-i grew up sub-par
but it's cool cos
i&i kno who i-i-i-i are
harrr - binge - r of the N.O.I.R.E.
newer than any era comin apHter
iiill erase all your errors
oops––turn the page
an-oth-er
chap-ter
run this maze pHaster, pHaster
than velociraptor
break out the cage––blow the motherboard
like my sopHtware
was eX ma-chi-na
iiill show you how
but keep the secret..
mad low key now..
yaO––
just drop your keys now
owW––
take that watch off
and throw your hats off
do a crown toss
and just pHloat up, up up up..
the game O' liepHe
gets a lot simpler
when you can raze it up
and sea the big picture (el foto grande)
sum'n like simba
or claus in december
then iiim gone till november..
peep the harvest
pHrom the artist workin hardest
burning hottest
seeing pHarthest
pHuck a pHather, pHam n pHame
iiim just a talking head still ahead of the game
sleepy hollow
horse blanco
dusted like a
matte black lambo
pHull throttle plus a bottle
trailblazing
never pHollow
dodging aims pHrom the hollows
catching air like a (swallow)
but what do iii know...
?
Just chuckin stix in the pHlame
burnt away so don't remember my name
all my liepHe iii been ashy
so wit the ash iii remain
but bepHore iii dust, lemme just
chuck these sticks in the pHlame
iiim spittin writtens
but it's still spittin
but the ink is drippin
believe these bars locked tight:
see, "a prison"
yaO, bepHore the tryppin
sit n listen
wait, so high [TaKai] iii think iii might
have gone missing
auto reply: "Saiyin gone pHishing"
in the Mission on a mission
pHor some college bisches
addicted.
the narrow path is repetition
i fell off.
but then i pHel up
like heaven was down
iii really pHelt that Pain of the Anointed when they reversed my basqiat crown
selecting chicks like Woody would peck on his own daughters' lips
damn, america’s a tryp––
just make sure you phel up
when they START TRYPPIN in shiit.
Just chuckin stix in the pHlame
burnt by phlame––iiill never be the same..
my whole liepHe iii been ashy
the Angel dust is the same
while iii just chuck these sticks in the pHlame
this mage––magician be slippin
thru the slits in the stage
repHlecting all the petty drama
drowning my age
with the aim–to create–my own mirror image.
OKayy..?
was razed an
8-0-80s baby
kinda crazy
labeled lazy
maybe, maybe
iii just could be
a tree seedling
germinating
incubating
why you hating
why you shading
just be patient
shit
"this ain't a movie,” kid
if you haven’t noticed yet
this real on REEL liepHe is way more vivid.
