Presenting the Past (CLT Skies, Sine and Saw, Grindstone)

by Emcee Fuel

/

about

This is actually three tracks in one song. CLT Skies is lyric based with a glitch hop feel. Sine and Saw is a strictly analog instrumental with a driving bass and arpeggio and a repeating chorus written by me.

lyrics

CLT Skies

Rolling through the streets of Charlotte
I'm discrete but I'm apart of it
the underbelly
Shaking it up like jelly
Why that heroine addict look like
machine gun Kelly

injected ingested rejected infested
And because of it I'm constantly infected
Sicker than the intrepid
Honestly I'm highly respected
always on your recommended
Rarely commended
You're barely offended cause
I'm the bartender
And you've been tended to
come by next time with a friend or two
Maybe more and we'll get a whos who
These types of things only happen once in few
Days anyways I'm blowing through another phase
Going through it
Lord knows how many ways

I swore I'd never fall and praise
So much more hell to raise
Driving under the city lights
Living oh so lavish despite
Surviving UV rays
Getting higher than a kite on Sundays
All night, she's lost in my gaze
It's my plight when we part ways
Cut the rope and she's gone in the haze
With all this hope i long to play
The notes that'll make me real okay

Sine and Saw

Stuck Inbetween the chapel and the haw
Faster than the sine and the sawTOOTH
Ill tell you the truth about the DAW
It changed my life forever
Made me feel like I could live a little less than forever
Stuck on the hard drives
On the internet's insides
Yeah I got the guts and I ain't talking schmutz
Just what I can contrive and it's not much

when you know I've arrived
Ive been there
Pulling out my hair
Ripping out my teeth
Taking a dive into concrete
Letting a swear out
Doing normally what I wouldn't dare or doubt
Now I got the Microbrute and the freak
Whatever you say I'll refute it with that's sweet
Now get ya freak on and keep it cool like frion

I'm turning you on like the AC
Yeah I'm a one man unit
Cant clear the air with me

Stuck Inbetween the chapel and the haw

Faster than the sine and the sawTOOTH
Ill tell you the truth about the DAW
It changed my life forever
Made me feel like I could live a little less than forever
Stuck on the hard drives
On the internet's insides
Yeah I got the guts and I ain't talking schmutz
Just what I can contrive and it's not much

You're eating me up
that's lunch
Can't skip this track like double Dutch
I got your back I'll hold on to the hunch
Need me a couple bands in a bunch
Ive crunched the numbers
that's brunch
Day by day
Life eating away at whatever's munched
Cash flow I stay looking to pay
My debts my dues my bets I can't refuse them yet
that's not untrue I'll get to it like the punchline
Touch these keys and you'll feel divine

I found luck Inbetween the chapel and the haw
Faster than the sine and the sawTOOTH
Ill tell you the truth about the DAW
It changed my life forever
Made me feel like I could live a little less than forever
Stuck on the hard drives
On the internet's insides
Yeah I got the guts and I ain't talking schmutz
Just what I can contrive and it's not much

Grindstone

I don't feel any pain
2x

Harder than a grindstone
Hotter than an oven stove
austere in the Grove

Started doing this for the life I've never known
I Got the drive and it drove me insane
Surviving everything before I came alone


Being In the zone
The future is my only home
I nuture volts and ohms
Running with the wind like colts and tones
Above the sun
There's tons we've never known
Under your skin like muscles and bones
We run like blood and hustle to where we roam



Doing this for love got me higher than cocaine
Higher than a dove
And an underlier in the game

Maintaining my ingrained membrane
I'm as Tough as fine grain
I'm as rough as street slang
I've had enough of the same who sang



Oscillations going in and out of my brain
My words cut em like a machete to sugarcane

You never know what's next like hangman
Getting checks not like it's Gangland

UnComplicated and underrated
Understated and unrelated
But
My heart is colder than freezing rain
And the spark I have is hotter than tape driven with extra gain

I don't feel any pain
2x,,

Harder than a grindstone
Hotter than an oven stove

austere with the fame

Started doing this for the life I've never known


I Got the drive and it drove me insane
Surviving everything before I came alone

Being In the zone
Above the sun that wanes
Doing this for love got me higher than cocaine
Higher than a dove
And an underlier in the game

Maintaining my ingrained membrane
I'm as Tough as fine grain
I'm as rough as street slang
I've had enough of the same who sang
Oscillations going in and out of my brain
My words cut through them like a machete to sugarcane

You never know what's next like hangman
Getting checks not like it's Gangland

UnComplicated and underrated
Understated and unrelated
But
My heart is colder than freezing rain
And the spark I have is hotter than tape driven with extra gain

I don't feel any pain 2x
