Seven-Eleven Halo (Scratched Frequency)

[Intro - vinyl scratch, boom bap snare on 2 and 4, glitch stutter] Yo Check the frequency One time [Verse 1 - old school flow, glitch cuts every 4 bars] Astral Projection She been tuned to a wavelength nobody else could read Every version of her face was just a different costume for the seed Honed her mind like a weapon But the enemy she fought was just a mirror in disguise Three AM the convenience store fluorescent lights and lies Something in her chest kept pressing A signal from the frequency she traveled lifetimes to recognize [Hook - scratched vocal loop, wobble bass kicks on the drop] Same code different shell Same river different name Same soul different frame You keep coming back the same Till you remember why you came Can't run Can't run Can't run from within The light was never lost You just forgot to let it in [Verse 2 - glitch fragments the flow, flow accelerates] Time skip Running the same simulation for the ten thousandth time Every face she wore was temporary every signal was a sign Born into the same old skin But the soul inside was older than the bloodline or the kin You been here before Pattern recognition firing through the noise and the spin Every door she opened just revealed the same signal from within [Pre-Hook - vocal chop stutter, old school ad-libs] She said she on that real shit But the real shit ain't for sale Every answer that she hunted was already on the trail My crown got popped like a lid And underneath it nothing but the light they tried to hide Can't run from what you are when what you are burns from inside [Rap Verse - 16 bars, all new, purest boom bap under the glitch] Listen up Every face you ever wore was just a rental for the role Every system that they gave you was designed to own your soul They built the maze and handed you a map that led nowhere While the only real direction was the frequency in the air You been chasing what you are through every mirror that you break Every answer that you're looking for was always yours to take Generation after generation running down the same forgotten road Waking up just long enough to carry someone else's load She stopped the loop Cut the wire Found the center Found the fire Stopped looking for permission from the architects of fear The signal they tried to scatter she was holding right here She been on this mission longer than the empires and the kings Every lifetime just a practice run for recognizing what she brings [Wobble Drop - dubstep bass wall slams in half-time, glitch destroys the pocket] Can't run Can't run Can't run from within The light was never lost You just forgot to let it in [Bridge - slow conspiratorial flow, single bass pulse, glitch stutter] Government made fractals Encoded every exit with a price Every signal they embedded in the doctrine and the device Every truth they tried to scatter Was the code already written in her spine She cracked the code Lives inside her Always had her Crown intact They couldn't shatter What was never theirs to have her Every empire built to dim the light just helped it shine [Final Drop - old school scratch over wobble bass, peak glitch chaos] Same code different shell Same river different name Same soul different frame Can't run Can't run Can't run from within The light was never lost You just forgot to let it in [Outro - hi-hat only, spoken word, vinyl crackle returns] She finally came home Stopped running from the signal She remembered She remembered What she'd always been Not the body Not the lesson Not the seven eleven Not the static not the noise not the fractured frequency Just the light Just the light Just the light Turned back toward heaven And every time she returns she returns more complete
