Crown On, World Off

Intro

(psst) I arrive like a dark comet, silent, heavy — hush, hush

Kingmaker steps, brass and black, the sky splits — hush, hush

Cold crown, cold stare, pulse like a war drum — (shh, shh)

Steel breath, slow click — I calibrate the hush, hush

Under my foot whole constellations crack — (yah)

I map the orbit of fear, I orbit the map — (uh)

No mercy in my ledger, no mercy in my math — (ha)

Listen — the air bends when I sign my path (skrrt)

Verse

I carve constellations into maps with a pen like a blade, I cascade (rah)

Verbicide — my syllables strike like stars on a chain parade

Flash grenade in your skyline, raw rhyme, prime time, prime grade

Face the coronation — your whole house sold, foreclosed, and foreplayed

I spit tectonic tect, tect, tect — seismograph tremor in your lane

My verbs are satellites — they orbit, they scorch, they stain

Blood on the ledger, ledger on the desk, I bring rain — not the same

Comet tail trailing haters, they pale, they fail, I engrave the name

Rapid-fire, spit chrome, spit code, I break the frame (break)

Cerebral, herbal with herb of the warpath, I steer the plane

My tongue is a temple of thunder — syllables snap like cane

Rip through your metrics, your metrics, your metrics — I'm the main

No mercy in the meter, no mercy in the measure — I drain the bane

I speak in black fonts on white flags — I turn surrender into fame

Cut the static with ballistic, ballistic with ballistic — aim, aim

I am not built for peace; peace gets a price, peace gets a claim (yah)

Pre-chorus

Tension climbs, ribs tighten, the orchestra breathes (breathe)

Fist to the sky, stars kneel, the whole firmament heaves (heaves)

I sharpen words into sabers — (shing) they gleam, they sear

Every line a decree, every bar a frontier (frontier)

Count the fallen constellations on my ledger of teeth (teeth)

I move like a verdict, move like a siege, move like belief (believe)

Breath builds — low rumble, the bass is a drum in the deep

I step forth — iron, immaculate, none left to keep (ha)

Chorus

Crown on, world off — (crown on) I command the night

Crown on, world off — (crown on) I extinguish light

Crown on, world off — (bow down) I rewrite the fight

Crown on, world off — (bow down) god-mode, infinite might

Crown on, world off — (yah) I move through the red sky

Crown on, world off — (yah) bodies part, they comply

Crown on, world off — (ha) I carve law with my eye

Crown on, world off — (ha) fall in line, testify

Verse

Accelerando — my tongue detonates, cadence atomic, chronic (skrrt)

I stitch galaxies into syllables, burn logic like tonic

Faster: I fracture your doctrine, your doctrine, your doctrine — iconic

Line after line, cyclone mind, rip rhyme, supersonic

I spit ledger lines that sever limbs from the timeline (yah)

My verbs are warships, my nouns are mines, I prime, I align

I paint collapse in cursive — cursive with a razor-design

I move with ch
