Subject: How it USED to be done.. This is like 1 1/2 years old.. Id even forgot about it till the dude showed me it.. Long Cypher but full of quoteable.. Definite good read..

JOE MADD

my shine is inside like bottled prisms - i've spotted visions
like gazing at rays of sunshine - amazingly my signature phrase is unsigned
azily blazing to unwind - my mind is effortless effervesence
style of ever present kinetic lessons yet blessed with the peasant's best sense
of humility infested since adolescence
i masquerade rhyme styles as costumed jewels
exumed schools of thought presumed to be doomed by entomed fools
my mind's womb spools threads of genius and instability
flex contact mic ability with cat like agility
and try to forget the bad times like a villain's senility
imagine a million ill MCs with visions of killin me because they really feelin me

SWORDS

my rappin visions have constricted bad petitions badly
automatically jabbing fragmented rocks radically
into the souls of skulls, im hazardous on happy has-beens
hassle them when tossing javelins haphazardly
emphatically have them fold, i have scrolls which travel from my bones
to lymphatic nodes which scatter past the globe
like gravel, grabbing poems which otherwise may never make it past my home
instead i'd take them to the catacomb, avenue of the living dead
id rather live instead, purge my flesh-deep sins
let us become better men, for the sake of our bretheren
instead of severin' ties all the time trying to settle scores with weapons
better yet let's force ourselves to remain more on the side of sages
vital pages weather storms, i slept in while heads got swept in hurrricanes
for thinking they be deservin' fame, but when they looked back, all they saw's their neighborhood in burning flames
enough to make a spirit turn insane

JOE MADD

and spirits of insanity haunt my brain planning to damage me
i plot to enclose the world in a canopy of candid vanity
hold hands with humanity steal kisses from a marriage of fate & destiny
carrying my soul across thresholds to bless the rest of me
my recipe is unadulterated poetic genius
with so much illness even fiendish emcees be getting squeamish
keening you from seamless minds to open flames
as these spoken games cloak you with broken names
my potent strains smoke and drain focus hoping to soak in brains
to wash away impurities penetrate cerebral fast like emergency surgery
burning third degree scars in both ends of eternity
got heads earnestly spitting dictionaries to share a word with me
witness the verbal artestry courtesy of yours truthfully
spooning immunity from youthful lunacy into communities
soon to bleed inked expressions linked to questions
prophetic sages couldn’t think of guessin - instinct in sessions
is to defeat with discreet aggression
to complete the needs of my emcee obsession
and leave enemies fleeing from my distinct impression in complete depression
i bank 20,000 leagues beneath the C-note quota
and gain interest spinning Gemini "Twins" like Minnesota
so don't sweat the Technics, select beats off best wax to bless the Vestax,
most prefer just to impress cats and flex wax just to get stacks –
never respect that - i'll be underturf dancing with earthworms –
when the universe burns from inhuman words my verse spurns –
I first learned these cannibal mannerisms planting aneurisms
in animals my vandalism krylon mephisto waltz when i dance with wisdom –
creating a catechism over fatter rhythms inventing an implicit mixture
of idol worship sacrament and holy scripture –
picture perfect wordsmith my verb spits herb twits through verse disbursement –
jump through flaming sacred hoops to reverse excursions –
back to climbing heights like mountains of truth –
bound to be found face down drowned in the fountain of youth –
so excuse me while i kiss the skies goodbye –
the big suprise is you deny you've been misadvised of your demise –
mystified by religion's lies peeping thru digitized eyes to visualize.

SWORDS

please be fearful of that hero hidden between ones and zeros
the demise of the divine, from out the sky we drop miracles
give you an earful if we feel you aint had it
situations can get drastic as if automatic
my raps slash faggots and the nice ones
but i can become civilized for the gracious if the time comes
my raps bring science, in between open eyelids find fire from drums
im tired of puns, picking off those who are close to falling like plums
Joe and Swords cold equivalents to Del and Sunspot, we're like pirates
there's gold in them thar lyricz, you just gotta find it
my styles tight, timeless just after i've refined it
bringing it live, i oughta remind that
once you went for a swim, be kind and rewind it
from other dimensions, ascenscions from another timeset
for only a few years been reppin, but i drop diamonds like a rhyme vet
a turbo-jet verbal threat, slash throat to leave a purple neck
hollowed out the new home, the new shell as the turtle slept..

JOE MADD

and while the turtle sleeps in shells - i run hurdle leaps in hell –
so cold i cause the inferno to freeze and swell –
and explode from within obliterating satan's domain –
helping peeps grow off the top of the head like rogaine –
make mcs suck up they pride like a nose to cocaine –
drop anonymous words of wisdom like a face with no name –
wether i be Joe Madd or the Indelible Mike Lord –
i must remind you that the Pen's much mightier than the Swords –
make MCs pay attention way more than they can afford
leave you bleeding piss - after reading this –
madd be the type to bare more arms than a gang of angry hedonists –
analyze the man of rhymes who tantalize with enchanted lines –
you can't arise - ya rhymes are so bitch i fantasize bout ya panty size

SWORDS

We throw thoughts at your train rails cuz they're only worth a penny
deserve the many wonders we possess off the head? you must be twisted off the herb 'n' Henny
we make sacrifices when we improvise on simple devices
use an altar to slice your heart with nice skills to send souls on their next departure
start your engines kids, you're 'bout runnin' a rat race
but in that case, you'll be luck to come in last place
so save the last bit of face you have for the dance of death
cuz when the chess pieces clash i'll be the last one left
who has the best click in his signature? who's whipped more kids into shape than slave ship tenders?
we bend brains send rays of light to slay the simplistic types
sift through those who deserve the gift of lyrical hype, cripple their lives
we hold the culture umbilical, this shit is enough to make the most cynical go pivotal
we make Manson fans leave that and make rappers their heros, we're that critical..
