Been a goddamn year since my last tape
At least it feels like that, I spit at mad rates
So if I ever stop for any reason it’s a bad place
Only marathoning long nights and drab days, hey,
Recently played a small set for a pocket of guys
Six hours of practice then forgot all my lines, God, why
A couple peeps already spotted my rhymes and
Bump my shit inside their cars and so they thought it was nice
It was nice. Of course I had to dab with each of em
I’m rap-attacking tedium, then nap in traffic medians
And when I get a minute I come back to blast the medium
With facts to glass the class of cats who spat their tracks at premiums
On top of that, I’ve been writing more stories that you don’t read
On Pastebin and FiMFic, JoJoing with dope steeds
I go oh please, if you’re too busy to read books
Peeps brook bleak looks, I read sixty this year, you just suck.
I’m still the Element of Laughter, playing up the room
For half the night cus it’s the elephant I’m after
And deep inside of every joke resides an unspoken thought
And even pony rappers get it right sometimes like broken clocks
I turned 23
I got the pink down, now I’m tryna get some funny cheese
I still got the key if I need it
Rainbow thread turns gold in the game, Miss Pommel be a phoenix
I’m working on a bunch of tapes, this is not one of em
But if I don’t release em then people might stop loving em
I’ll face that hurt, I’ma make raps work and
Be the pony James Joyce with the same last words
And I’ma spray sad verses bout the cold indifference
And emboldened limerence on the open internets
I rolled your forces with the lore of horses
DTF is morphin tryna hold your - interest

Bad Mood

Coco Pommel the dressmaker, puts her best labor into
Ten acre trains sketched upon her test paper
She got five more, and they’re all due by morning
Her mind through performing, her eyes blue and stormy
And Coco wants her inner thoughts to take her away,
It takes divine intervention just to put on a neighborhood play!
And now she thinks on olden fables
Where scarves can bind and coats can strangle,
Grows entangled with the ponies of the high life -
Sewing in the quiet night for clothing with a shy side,
Showy in the limelights of opening actors
Backlog gets amassed for never going to pasture
Or her clients will know she’s a slacker!
Coco’s used to doing things a certain - way
She'd really benefit from an assertive - phase
But late nights keep on turning into early - days
While she’s lowkey on the lookout for a Suri - ‘kay
She’s been learning to be a night owl, keeps
Candles burning on both ends long after lights out
Hundred times been fronting like she's fine now
And kinda thankful there’s no friends to explain to cus they might doubt
Cloudwatching, wishes she could fall into the vast blue
But the new designs won’t wait for that, that’s the sad truth:
Couldn’t quit the business if she had to
Is she okay? Yeah, she’s fine, she's just in a bad mood.
Duty wise I’m just on the road to get to beauty’s prize
Newbie guy staring at his goals inside of rheumy eyes
Ensuing climb, manuscripts get scarred with ellipsis
Avoiding streetlight and tryna catch a star in my glimpses
I keep listening to mood FM backwards
And I saved the damn game but I can’t find the password
Eviscerate my history to order for laughter and
“Catch you on the flipside” is gonna be my last words, fractured
Between showing real emotion and a stiff upper lip
The next guy who says to smile can get a stick up his dick
I only do that bumping raps or when I’m riffing on shit
And I can’t even do that when I’ve been out swiffering grit
I’m still hoping that the ending could be worth the - wait
Starting getting known for turning out a furtive - phrase
Like an Indigo Zap, I herald purple - rain
That's ignoring all the lines that you ain't heard me - say yet
Not a daysleeper, just a night owl
Been staring at a radio tower like it's a lighthouse
And I might sell some records, make it big and get all iced out
But more likely I'll go through thirty years of getting tied down
Hightown rap rube, I can’t make it past blues
Wrap them up in olden words, try to make em abstruse
And now I couldn't get my own damn hopes up if I had to
Are you okay? Yeah I’m fine, I've just been in a - bad mood.

Walk with me through the stars in autumn
I’ll be waiting, you got soul
Give them a smile and their hearts’ll blossom
What went wrong can be remade whole
Ground underhoof, sky in the distance,
Laugh cus there’s really no pride in existence
When life had afflicted her eyes with strabismus
She aimed for the moon, no surprise that she missed it
Soon fate seemed to make her its toy
Smiled, but half of the things she would say would annoy
She was learning to bear it, find and take in the joy
And one morning she was carrying an avoirdupois
Maybe it’s a matter of having the wrong foalhood
Life isn’t fair, the mares are nonsocial
Most if your glares and stares are not noble
She could’ve went mad, instead she’s gone postal
But at least she’s doing this job, and her
Daughter’s in school and the bullying stopped
And they still eat together and it’s good when they talk
And if that’s true, then surely life is fully unlocked.
Walk with me through the stars in autumn
I’ll be waiting, you got soul
Give them a smile and their hearts’ll blossom
What went wrong can be remade whole
When you talk to yourself know that we can hear it
And the world sometimes feels broken and cruel
The Princesses rule but the meek inherit
And the earth and the sky opens up for the fool

Knee-knock rodeos, heat drop pony roast
Please watch scorpios, these flock over roads
At the saltlick he got trouble in his shoes
Brought bumbling abuse, odd sober notes caustic
Sunday morning comes down further than the mail goes
Certainly avails most, weather warning unsounded,
Fun outings, mild dances in the sunrise
Prancing in the spun night, prancing and they cherish it
Artist of the carriages, parson and the Sheriff been
Snockered out socking out varmints in the terraces
Of dreamland, black hats grappling in green sand
Making peace plans in the orchard they inherited
And if it’s not a piano they don’t hear it
Red lights shining too bright on old spirits
And bottles on fairgrounds, train songs playing
All the harlots and mares out are heading back home
Tame all wastes and they take all payments,
Street sweeping every two weeks a train hits
Not a pony, each season is non high-brow
It’s the old time town time forgot time now
Eyebrows draw low and spill over adventure eyes
You know it’s never very chill but the friends are nice
And newbies can’t tell what the anomaly seems
Some fruits can fall far from the harmony tree

They wouldn’t listen.
All of that damn work and they wouldn’t listen!
All that for one chance damn he shouldn’t miss it!
Exiled as if he could’ve killed them, he could’ve killed them!
But he’s hardy as the river of his namesake.
Now he’s party to the whispers, brain aches -
The walls have ears, take a walk in the abyssal
Shade place making a young man turn fissile, hate shakes.
The source of the voice needs a weapon to foster
And the man gives himself with nothing better to offer
Tendrils cut off the last gasping breath of the scholar
Not the end of the story, just a death of the author
And soon there’s a break in his lungs
Hooves scrape in the dust, his escape doesn’t come
Got his name in the mud and felt their faces’ disgust
But now the saviors’ll hush, he’ll make them pay in their blood
Scar Hope and Beauty til Healing won’t help them
Then burn Bravery til his steel is all melted
Turning their Strength from the stealing of relics
Til Sorcery’s forcibly feeling his relish
Not the wisest, he’s thinking about apostasy
Stop the lying, he’s drinking their hypocrisy
Strong defiance gets unleashed upon autocracy
Blot the sky, all my kingdom for apologies

I deliver but I don’t - I’m bitter when I joke
A winner but I’m broke - I’m playing the part
I’m in the game for a min before the bubble crash
My first name is just my trip and it’s a double-hash
##FQFlovhyugf - above dudes - c.f.
The songs come like one two G-Clef cus
Who else gonn make some raps about the actual show
And become a second Faust for tryna raffle his soul
And master the prose, fought until he spat to his goals
This club’s like a country, right now I’m the catch on the pole
So don’t you write me off and think that I’m dead, got
A lot of people mulling on the things that I’ve said
I’m still an all-time reader call me Nero to trees
Night’s close, I’ma run this shit from zero to three
Please - some listeners might think I’m very meek
But people who dislike me’ll be getting scared to breathe
Spare the speech, if you like my writing you should snare a peek
One day you’ll all call these first three albums the aperitif.
The writtens getting low - I’m smitten but alone
I dither when I flow - I’m just playing the part.
Little by little bit

[Ditherer]
The seeds of treason in the ground and each prospers
My demons reach longer, sleep of reason breeds monsters
Indecent de-froster of the glaciers in my mind’s eye
Praisers of divine right quaver in the night sky
Heart beats the wrong cadence, guard streets - I want payment
Crystal hearts are gone jaded now the songs are long faded
Used to think I’d gone native and I’d made my bond sacred
But I feel the hot hatred anywhere I’m not facing
Many glares, the gods’ plaything, wailing I was chose at birth
Fitful sleep I dream that I’m a shade beneath the frozen earth
Down in the depths thresh and mock the sounds of regrets
And found a house of death to drown the stolen crown on my head.
[TheWanderingKit]
Spirits, just draining away all the feeling, emotional
Darkness, arrives….we rise... Don't need a host
Locked in the shadows , were on the walls
Crafting a pony ,from darkness to take the throne
We’ll Break a crystal heart into pieces
Freeing all the spirits , cause we locked in a precinct (Uh)
Knock for a feasting, ponies all around
You best to know when they’re screaming (Uh)
Hidden away, locked in a cage, wanting our freedom so get out the way
All of our rage, thrown in your face, when we are free
We shall visit your grave,
You looking so brave ,but we won't stop (Ha)
Now you looking scared , so we won't stop (Ah)
Ponies of the void, make your heart drop
We will never stop till we're free
Then your world dies

Bard from the east coast
I keep it freaky til I’m barred from the east coast
I got a lot of old bars in a sweet coat
Horsemeat getting carved up in a neat boast, weaks don’t eat tho
Work for the love so the larva can feed, bro
Golden Dawn crew, I don’t harvest, I reap, ho
Any kids mouthing off to me should have a deep throat
Bars are too large for the margins of each flow
That’s a joke about the Fermat format
Just like you’re a joke, only played by your buds
And if you ever tried to rap a verse on horseback
You get thrown off with your face in the mud, done
Drop lines like a dropship, dimes in a moshpit
Die in my office revising my offerings -
Eyes on my watch when you rhyme, you obnoxious
I grind on my songs while you grind on the crotchtits
Shitty rappers in my view now
Shitty rappers only fucking with the viewcounts
Looking like we got a few now
Kick it like John Madden, all these faggots getting moonbound
High score in the game and they lost it
You’ll be a lot more safe playin possum
Or else I’ll fuck up your face like Jay Fosgitt
Look, here’s a tape! Whoops, I may’ve dropped it.
Try to be honest, insightful, immodest,
I waifu the goddess and write til it’s flawless
When white dudes are bombing on mics and they nauseous
They whine like “C’mon” and I’m like “Dude, I got this.”
I start the beat and all the pones get on it and
All you fucks have got a dealer, I got Rome Silvanus and
All you fucks have got a beef and I got no more problems
All you fucks have got your demons I got pones to solve em
J Free with no JF - Andy’ll do the business

Ditherer the rap game Tandy Computer Whiz Kid
Ditherer the rap game Yelling at Cats!
I drop bombs on a Sunday,
Got more shit up on my plate than your moms at a buffet
And most mans don’t care what the art brings
Tryna throw hands and I tear out their heartstrings
I spend too much time on hip touching
And when I’m sued, change my name to Miss Budget
Fudgin’, numbers Dithy meddle the biz
Call my whole porn folder a pretty kettle of fish
Never storytelling you’re just speaking thoughts
Never storytelling when you rap, kid, you’re weak and soft
I worked my way into the Fimfic feature box
Worked into the motherfucking feature box, eat my cock
You say when I rap I shouldn’t think about ponies
I can’t fit it to the beat, and I stink and I’m lonely,
And my fans all shrink at my phonemes, but they trouble Dith
For more after a double disc - thinking emoji.
Dith Fuss, the best at books and art
Plus better at chess than Rooks Rampart
Scrubs getting divested - hooks and bars
Fuck veteran guests, I book land wars
Push head of the rest, you too damn sparse
Good riddance to tests, I took fan’s hearts
Come lit as the best who cook grand bars
Rush victims to death like hook hand car - door.

High winds and overcast, write in an overpass
Nice but I overact when I sigh sober facts
Rise over that, see what lit kids wanna bring
Life’s a case of big fish, small ponderings
And right now I’ma mix a refresher
I’m a fixer to Zephyrs doing spits under pressure
Keep on visiting whether this for business or pleasure
Cus I know part of my heart is gonna be in this forever
Not so hot on getting friends and a family
Even flying colors gotta bend under gravity
Trends have a pattern-weave, fate’s just a lottery
Honestly I’m really not as great as I wanna be
But don’t fret, I’m not screaming when the beat’s off
Got good chili and a freezer full of freeze pops
Got good feelings if I keep on making these drops
Far too silly to be weeping, getting weaksauce
Wanna make papes with the rapping songs
Kids claiming great tastes make me laugh a lot
And it’s only in based tapes that I’m acting odd
I’m usually straight-faced - Thrackerzod
But people at my work think I seem so depressed
Cus I don’t speak unless it’s for a keynote address
And even at best, I’ll probably rap it underwater
Stack the drummer fodder, grab the wonder-daughter
Dagi - my siren’s got a beautiful name and
Bright raspberry eyes, and a luminous mane
And she laughs at their cries, not a humanist babe
Gotta turn the whole world into a suitable stage
I heard the song shared by the mermaids
And now I call upon em there in my worst days
But they don’t answer and I’m scared this the worst case
This isn’t shit I asked to bear in the first place
We have lingered in the chamber of the seaponies
Get me thinking we don’t have to be lonely
One sound-cloud that the gloom and void breaks up
We’ll be drowned out when a human voice wakes us
I’ma Prufrock and invigorate
Stop with the bitter hate, talk when you spit a tape
Top of the Pops I’ma lock what I syndicate
Not the godking but I’m Nimue, done.
