A single off of Banshee Anthology produced by the Historian

lyrics

Hook x2:
Tryna get back to my baseline
Felt like Justin Turner, dodging base lines
I don't need it and ain't tryna face time
I can hear the whining through the grapevine
Everybody talking over Facetime
I'm just rolling solo like snake eyes
Playing dice with demons in my brain's mind
Felt like a shinobi, GI Joe style

Verse 1:
Storm shadow approaching, but the reigns mine
Psychic spitting science, telepathic Frankenstein
Orographic effect to Cal City sunshine/
Bringing all macabre, while you corny as a cob
Nobody believes it, so I doubt my own essence
Shadows like I'm throwing shurikens at Kefka
Got my dog with me, Khan Rottweiler
Esper energy infected every neuron, fried em
Spliffy airy, burn it like TGI Fridays
Might Guy, might buy that strong for tonight's high
Fire alarms in the pad dismantled
Cranberry vodka, boutta pour a whole handle
Anthologically writing these scattered schizo moments
Banshees wailing like beluga, but I know its
Telepath wackness from an Eastern diagnosis
Western said a psych ward should be where my home is


Hook x2:
Tryna get back to my baseline
Felt like Justin Turner, dodging base lines
I don't need it and ain't tryna face time
I can hear the whining through the grapevine
Everybody talking over Facetime
I'm just rolling solo like snake eyes
Playing dice with demons in my brain's mind
Felt like a shinobi, GI Joe style
Verse 2:
Felt like a ninja with the bug, call me Shino
Uzumaki spiraling downward, check the reel
Heart cold as steel, I don't know if I can heal
Ask me how it feel, when life doesn't feel real
When you signed away the right to keep a gun concealed
When you try to keep it fresh but in a vacuum seal
I'm just tryna get more promotions like master seals
Who seen a ghost and fought it like Lucina to Grimleal
Every day I wake up feel like Time Warp Trio
I'm a joker, I'm a bard, that's the hand I gotta deal
Not a jack of all, I'm a master of my skills
Stats low in luck, keep it rolling like a wheel
Epithelial cells, keeping all my bases covered
Riding with the homies, turned it into Raging Thunder
Sinning like I'm Jessica Biel, I'm tripping upward
Footwork of Uchihas, just hope I can recover
