lyrics

I'm hella judgemental.
Let's make it simple.
Tryna evolve
everyday's what i'm into.
I will not martyr my future to
hoist up my past on a pedestal
Mighta did things that i'd never do

Now we got folks tryna
fall on their batleths
Cuz they can't imagine a
human reaction
Outside of their patterns,
they'd rather dismiss than
Address when an asshole treats
people like shit

It gets deeper and
deeper than this
People say,
"that's who i'll be when I'm rich"
Then get hella trigg'd
when their hero's stock dips
But you still work OT and
your hero still rich.

Fuck is you trippin' for?
that ain't gon never be you, I mean
Never forever and
ever be you
So stop fantasizing about
stepping your shoes
On the necks of the desperate and used.


Listen and hear me and
read what i say
I come with receipts
when i'm stating a claim

You can be more than
the status quo's followers
If we engage you
you getting a wall of words

Responding too fast?
that mean you ain't listen
Just waiting to get to your
turn to keep tripping, so

If you ain't hearing me,
fuck am i screaming for?
I'm on a schedule
this ain't Wikipedia, yo.


I'm hella judgemental,
let's make it plain
Tell me your mythos
i'll call it insane
I won't entertain
or see it your way
When targeting outgroups
Is all your ingangganggangganggangganggang

On the block or
congressional halls
Corporate boardrooms or
boutiques at the mall
I'm tryna build bridges
you tryna halt
I know that
Jericho's Wall gonna fall

And if I were you trust i
wouldn't be under that
Run and find distance
or cover to buffer that
Oncoming crash
you don't wanna get smothered or
Flattened the wages of
walls is you're crushed in fact

Why not let's just make a
table that's longer?
We got the leftovers
they steadily rotting
Empty apartments
folk perish in cold,
Cuz some demons wanna build
temples of gold


Listen and hear me and
read what i say
I come with receipts
when i'm stating a claim

You can be more than
the status quo's followers
If we engage you
you getting a wall of words

Responding too fast?
that mean you ain't listen
Just waiting to get to your
turn to keep tripping, so

If you ain't hearing me,
fuck am i screaming for?
I'm on a schedule
this ain't Wikipedia


I'm hella judgemental
all robe, no cap
Gavel come down on you
clowns with a crack
The mirror can get it too
that's seven years of bad luck
that I'm finna do?
I dunno, this shit instinctual

Paragraphs how i try
put all my think in you
That's how i love how i
Flirt how i seize the tools
Used for producing
Nutritional servings
Put 'em on plates
put 'em in persons

Stack all these words
like bricks for my shelter
and cover them all with a roof.
I'm tryna match y'all with verbs
and actions for drastic times
egg 'em all on with the truth.

All I can do
is call like I see
Open your sails
cuz you're stranded at sea
Wartime propaganda
this ain't about peace
When seventy million would
see me deceased.
At least.


Listen and hear me and
read what i say
I come with receipts
when i'm stating a claim

You can be more than
the status quo's followers
If we engage you
you getting a wall of words

Responding too fast?
that mean you ain't listen
Just waiting to get to your
turn to keep tripping, so

If you ain't hearing me,
fuck am i screaming for?
I'm on a schedule
this ain't Wikipedia

Khemmeta San Francisco, California

Khemmeta's music strives to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, or are shouted down when they do. His upcoming EP "When I Get To It" produced by Stephonathan (1/3 of both Pride City Purpose & Chedda Guap Boyz) is silly, nerdy, romantic, anti-nihilistic and defiant. He can't wait for you to get to it this [December]. ... more
