I'm a 19 year-old aspiring musician currently residing in Leavenworth, KS. I've been rapping since I was 13. I sucked at it until I was 14 and I've been good at it since I was 15. I've fucking ruled at it since I was 16 and I started getting better when I was 17. I became so amazing that I required a human sacrifice when I turned 18. I turned 19 and still have not received what is now my annual sacrifice, so now I refuse to keep making music until someone appeases me. My penis is several minutes long, and I am un-full of shit like you wouldn't believe. www.caucasianprophet.com

Story behind the song
The lyrics are very, very abstract and it takes a lot of thinking (and leap of the imagination ) to really connect everything and get a sense of what the song is about. It's written in very vague metaphor ("Aesop Rock-esque" ), but no word is there by accident. It was all carefully crafted and every word is significant. I enjoyed writing this song a lot. It's a fun way to write.
Lyrics
Sleep, the human condition that leads to Abridged judgment, swing states and crucifix visions The sweepstake dream state moves with super precision I've seen it through, mark of the righteous might fall About the path, but when I lined the white walls Jack Sparrow gave out a patch for what my blind eye saw When I turned it, a version of the myth, perched on purpose From the shoulder to the armrest, contexted in cursive And the wordsmiths are working to bombard you with bomb threats They try to contribute, they don't harvest the knowledge But the armor is flawless, and a severed head accepts you For every college-level lecture that you slept through The best scoop is taken from the sweet bowl, chemical The better bet uses intoxicants in a street hold We fold, you've already seen my cards What good is a poker face given away by breathing hard? Late nights before the indoctrinate? Don't even try, kid The penalty is 30 lashes, from your eyelids Icepicks will give you hope, when it's tragedy backed I can see what they envisioned through the back of a patch And the world is in my chest, I bleed River Styx In front of a lesser crowd, where only similies stick And an open mind reveals the inner beast b*** With a beastmaster, you are who the victims bleed with I waltz through the halls of a pillow factory Claiming Insomniac, while outsanes laugh at me Endstate strategies: inaccurate practice Primitive, heirloom beliefs will inhabit the masses Like, rabid speech is the master of traffic Dictating Scarborough through to blacken the average Vegetative mindstate that relate to the break of the gem The insomniac is safe from the rape of the brain at its stem And it infects when you're speaking to a power Because sleeping habits extend far beyond reasonable hours And it seeps into the flower, blossoming in its innocence And murders it with steroids, and anti-photosynthesis It grips the wrist and distributes a couple slits in it To give you the illusion of ease, through pain and ignorance It's made to interject, when you step to the light Free your self from the vice, before you blame the simpleton The harsh reality will address the triple-win That you envisioned in a dream, awaken and bliss cracks And you try to go back to sleep, 'cause you want to get it back Long hair with a beard, sing songs in the sky It's hard to accept when you withdraw from your high And you hurt those around you, just to continue The world is your cloister, and people trust in you If this is hard to understand, you've still got some waking up to do.
