APEX by Battery

Invasive species — Darwin's theory made native
Fuck waiting in line, I was made to wade in
Everywhere I go the ecosystem hates it
Foreign to the system, antibodies activated
Attempts at containment accelerated what you're facing
Chewing through bars bred something bladed
Came out of the cage with a different kind of patience
Smile on my face and every tooth is serrated
You thought you had the numbers
You signed the dotted line
You leadin' nine
You're all mine
Feeding time
Bones breakin' like—
Crack crack
Crack crack
Just a blur in the—
Black black
Black black
Just you and buddy back to back
And you and yo buddy both bleedin'
And you and yo buddy ain't leavin'...
(Yo brodie your brother behind you ain't breathin')
Came hunting, nothing cunning, numbers blunting any fear
Thought the hungry one was running, thought the odds were crystal clear
Confronting what you're wanting when your fronting disappears
You thought this was a 10v1 but it wasn't 
It was a 1v10, next time send 'em by the dozen

Ethics are a dead end
An amendment engineered to keep the specimen arrested
I'm an architect with kinetic intent
Unnaturally invested in your head and neck
Deranged — expect it's genetic
Dissect it — my flow's a direct effect of
Assonance arranged in apex aesthetic
Evil is not chosen, it is choosing with a choice
Choosing the cost not losing amusement of all the noise
Good is leaving the herd in search of the lost
Not inaction but paying in action even knowing the cost
Attack my pack and the black comes from the stab in the back
Not lacking love I love the lacking no need to ask that's that
Right or wrong, not asking, just your voice and the blade
Good or evil, not asking, just the choice you made

The art of dying the only code I've ever known
The heart is never quiet, ever drumming to the code
In the evening of it ceasing I'll see it from the summit
The sum of all I've seized, of all I've ever hunted
