about
This track is about the creative partnership and relationship I established with El Sistema 407 via the internet. We first started working together when he remixed my track "Sunset/Sunrise." The track also briefly overlaps with the captain narrative found in "Log in the Data" by suggesting that a hi-jack has occurred on that ship, and by creating these tracks, we are recording messages and creating memories. This track was inspired by the condition known as "Synesthesia."
lyrics
Verse 1/
Permission..
To board to your vessel, before I invade it
Stockpile my weapons and renegade spit
Options, like synonyms are plenty
Pick from my first name til that shit's empty
Tempting, relentlessly I pry
Like a palm reader for that purse on your side
For that electricity, to surge through my lips
Ammunition for my verses to take down your ships
Meditate and await, your transmission
So we can complete our field-of-vision
Like a color wheel, arrange variety and go
Vehicle, 407520
Reconvene in sound, paint the track from the ground
Mesh our styles, keep ya docile for awhile
File this canvas done, Sistema-Arsenal, spray-paint gun, gun
Chorus/
As those colors coast, hit my eye
Sounds travel through to refine and combine
Relationship built-in, by design
Together, make an idea in my mind
(Together, make a song, press rewind)
Bridge/
Psychedelic, Translucent (x3)
Verse 2/
Transmission,
From across the net, I intercept
Like a psychic, those feelings that you regret
Convinced me, that hiphop resides
Can bring people together from across country lines
A lifeforce, runs it's own course, and submits
Messages like morse code, from an old source
Divorces, music from it's maker
Allows judgements on its own nature
The color, the texture, the hue, and the size
Transmitted from those in Celestial skies
Renegade sound, spectral infused, ghostly cataclysm
Prizm protected visuals, simulated sound vision
Submission to senses, hi-jacked to the brain
Progam sights and sounds, one in the same
So file this one done, Sistema-Arsenal spray-paint gun, gun
