about

(Johnny Cosmic)
This song originally started out as a P.Tugz track. Tugz had an acapella chorus he had spit in the studio while we we're working on his 3 song demo.

We both got really excited about the idea and a rough demo was cut on the spot. Soon after the initial session, I dove deeper into the music and really spiced it up. One element I had a lot of fun adding was the fuzz bass on the chorus. And the slammin' beat at the end is one of my all time personal favorites as well.

After the song and the hook had been established, we threw the song to KB to see what he could do. He threw down 2 monstrous verses and it really set the tone for the song. It finally felt complete. Tugz was happy about the collaboration and decided to toss it to KB to include along with the Cosmic Knowledge collection.

lyrics

Chorus
(P.Tugz and Johnny Cosmic)

Not wasting time
Can't spare a dime
Trying to shake these dead willow blues
The scene from my window
Sorrow and sinful
What is a man to do?
Where do we go?
We're gonna find the one
Ask all the questions, demand the answers
Run till our time has come


(KnowledgeBorn07)

the populations procrastinatin
from tribulation to realization
as fascination blinds this nation
with visual sensations that act as sedation
back to the plantation
of the new world order space station
for the future enslavement
of all unified nations
we're just like rats in these cages
as they start the inflation
on anybody that has no blood relation
just ask a mason
and a combination of political leaders
who meet in private conversation
notice I speak without hesitation
cause if they come after me
I'll dodge em like the matrix


Chorus

Not wasting time
Can't spare a dime
Trying to shake these dead willow blues
The scene from my window
Sorrow and sinful
What is a man to do?
Where do we go?
We're gonna find someone
Ask all the questions, demand the answers
Run till our time has come


(KnowledgeBorn07)

how can I communicate
relate with the abstract minded
I leave you blinded by dimensions that I'm findin
with no traces
I lace these kids up like braces
to walk how I strut and take what I created
like the matrix
I hold time in the palm of my hand
and you take shots at me from hills of distant lands
who's the man
I want his head chopped and delivered
for blasphemin against the most high
I send shivers down the spines
of these cartoon characters like blizzards
to leave em frost bitten and
lose their limbs like trees withered
you wont see the sun until you stop whining
I spent years buildin my castle
to hang my art of rhyme in
I'll put this flag on top of this mountain so start climbin
cause honestly I won't be around for people to find it


Chorus

Not wasting time
Can't spare a dime
Trying to shake these dead willow blues
The scene from my window
Sorrow and sinful
What is a man to do?
Where do we go?
We're gonna find someone
Ask all the questions, demand the answers
Run till our time has come


(Johnny Cosmic)

war is over, war is over, war is over
that’s what I pray as I clutch this 4 leaved clover
the writing on the wall, come closer
we’ll tear it down
crumble, crumble crash bulldozers
hit so hard shake your skull and cross bone
at the darkest hour you’ll feel so alone
but what you couldn’t see will now be illuminated
hope to live to see the day
and I’ll use my last breath to say
(wish I could say)
the war for your mind is over
(wish I could say)
the war for your life is over
(wish I could say)
the war for your soul is over
(wish I could tell you)


(Popa Wu)

It's all good though....
