Okay I'm pretty buzzed atm but I have to say that Eyedea deserves to be placed among the greatest musicians ever; no one can follow his style. His passion shows what a unique individual he was let alone the intelligence he brought to the table every time he recorded a track or a freestyle. R.EYE.P The skinny video is the best live performance I've ever seen regardless of the idiots in the background; they don't know what they experienced that night let alone how many ppl would have loved to be there in their place.
Lyrics should be in description. [Verse 1] Staying 2 and 10 on the wheel of karma I could care less whether or not you put your hands up I'll do my best to make sure you have a bad day Pessimism at it's peak dropping in the worst way Never had the time to count all the birthdays Besides all the true heroes die before they're thirty Excited, the fantasies provide adrenaline Rivaled by the insight often mistook for rhetoric Gentlemen, put your perspective back in a box If I was you I'd slit my wrist out of respect for hip hop I only came cause I thought that you'd be leaving soon And I woulda stayed had I known I'd get to see you lose I got a soft spot for carbon monoxide I watch you eat your words and wash em down with pride Give the speakers a good excuse to overload Suffocating wasteland, vanishing your plan so [Hook] I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends Pissin in the gene pool promoting evolution Never knew a nervous breakdown could be so soothing I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends [Verse 2] The starving artist put the u in lunch And the poet came to put the cyanide in the party punch Back up, you rappers just suck I hope you die and I hope in your next life you have better luck Huh, I'll embarrass you in front of your own house And turn around battle every rapper in the crowd and be like peace out I'm gone, even my freestyles a nostalgic song I'm eons beyond you peons when the m.i.c.'s on I'm even ahead of myself by light years Might not always be right, but I'll always be right here Fighting the war, fighting off the ward I'm buried in the crevice that separates excitement and boredom I'm a true genius, I always knew the world was flat That's why they all fall off when they walk in one direction for too long And I'll probably follow they footsteps cause if I had a chance to reinvent my blueprint But I could sweet talk the solar system into sodomy As long as I'm here, to contaminate your ears [Hook] I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends Pissin in the gene pool promoting evolution Never knew a nervous breakdown could be so soothing I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution I'ma be your new favorite form.. [Verse 3] Yeah, 20 bars left till meltdown acid indigestion progression hell bound Every deed for my self now, lemme bleed all over your see through shell child Young dumb and full of compulsion, neurosis I'll lose this whole war, before I lose focus So take your dirty hands off the mic, punk Life's a bitch, and then you get treated like one Trudging through the field the sinister grins diminishing anxious minutes Feed my cynicism adrenaline innocent standby-er Sit calmly in the fire sift through the wood chip, call me when you get tired I can feel your whole aura needs a tune up And I got enough momentum to back your whole crew up Just relax and breath in the mustard gas You can function as the normal social scab like you always have Stay at two and ten on the wheel of karma That is if you can get the ignition to start up I don't believe you, and you don't believe in me But you don't have to, you'll still wind up buying my disease [Hook] Cuz I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends Pissin in the gene pool promoting evolution Never knew a nervous breakdown could be so soothing I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution I'ma be ya I'ma be I'ma be I'ma be ahhhhhhhh
I can feel your whole aura needs a tune up And I got enough momentum to back your whole crew up Just relax and breath in the mustard gas You can function as the normal social scab like you always have Stay at two and ten on the wheel of karma That is if you can get the ignition to start up I don't believe you, and you don't believe in me But you don't have to, you'll still wind up buying my disease Truly ahead of his time...
+Branan Curran Yeah the original was Quality Programming feat. Eyedea by Booka B, so Abilities didn't have anything to do with that beat. But, this beat is awesome regardless
But he kinda recontextualizes it so it has nothing to do with the flat Earth. "I always knew the world was flat That's why they all fall off when they walk in one direction for too long" The world is composed of artists who fail to innovate and change their style like Eyedea constantly did. Flat Earth is really just used as a metaphorical punchline for those artists. Really good shit. I just like when the second line totally recontextualizes and reframes the first line. Eyedea was a master of that
"All the true heroes die.before their 30" r.eye.p brother.
I'll prove you wrong.

Eyedea, Canibus, and Killa Priest are my hip hop trinity
I put him up there with Pink Floyd. Completely agree with your sentiment.
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution...
eyedea is a fucking genius

[Verse 1]
Staying 2 and 10 on the wheel of karma
I could care less whether or not you put your hands up
I'll do my best to make sure you have a bad day
Pessimism at it's peak dropping in the worst way
Never had the time to count all the birthdays
Besides all the true heroes die before they're thirty
Excited, the fantasies provide adrenaline
Rivaled by the insight often mistook for rhetoric
Gentlemen, put your perspective back in a box
If I was you I'd slit my wrist out of respect for hip hop
I only came cause I thought that you'd be leaving soon
And I woulda stayed had I known I'd get to see you lose
I got a soft spot for carbon monoxide
I watch you eat your words and wash em down with pride
Give the speakers a good excuse to overload
Suffocating wasteland, vanishing your plan so
[Hook]
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends
Pissin in the gene pool promoting evolution
Never knew a nervous breakdown could be so soothing
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends
[Verse 2]
The starving artist put the u in lunch
And the poet came to put the cyanide in the party punch
Back up, you rappers just suck
I hope you die and I hope in your next life you have better luck
Huh, I'll embarrass you in front of your own house
And turn around battle every rapper in the crowd and be like peace out
I'm gone, even my freestyles a nostalgic song
I'm eons beyond you peons when the m.i.c.'s on
I'm even ahead of myself by light years
Might not always be right, but I'll always be right here
Fighting the war, fighting off the ward I'm buried in the crevice that separates excitement and boredom
I'm a true genius, I always knew the world was flat
That's why they all fall off when they walk in one direction for too long
And I'll probably follow they footsteps cause if I had a chance to reinvent my blueprint
But I could sweet talk the solar system into sodomy
As long as I'm here, to contaminate your ears
[Hook]
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends
Pissin in the gene pool promoting evolution
Never knew a nervous breakdown could be so soothing
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
I'ma be your new favorite form..
[Verse 3]
Yeah, 20 bars left till meltdown acid indigestion progression hell bound
Every deed for my self now, lemme bleed all over your see through shell child
Young dumb and full of compulsion, neurosis
I'll lose this whole war, before I lose focus
So take your dirty hands off the mic, punk
Life's a bitch, and then you get treated like one
Trudging through the field the sinister grins diminishing anxious minutes
Feed my cynicism adrenaline innocent standby-er
Sit calmly in the fire sift through the wood chip, call me when you get tired
I can feel your whole aura needs a tune up
And I got enough momentum to back your whole crew up
Just relax and breath in the mustard gas
You can function as the normal social scab like you always have
Stay at two and ten on the wheel of karma
That is if you can get the ignition to start up
I don't believe you, and you don't believe in me
But you don't have to, you'll still wind up buying my disease
[Hook]
Cuz I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
Float on the tightrope choke on its loose ends
Pissin in the gene pool promoting evolution
Never knew a nervous breakdown could be so soothing
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
I'ma be ya I'ma be I'ma be I'ma be ahhhhhhhh
No. They should be right where they are ;).
Awesome..... thank you....
Oooh thank you!!
Rip eyedea micheal larsen oliver hart
amen
"All the true heroes die before they're thirty." RIP Eyedea, who wasn't even 29.
RIP eyedea
Awesome song
Buried in the crevice that separates excitement and boredom
I can feel your whole aura needs a tune up
And I got enough momentum to back your whole crew up
Just relax and breath in the mustard gas
You can function as the normal social scab like you always have
Stay at two and ten on the wheel of karma
That is if you can get the ignition to start up
I don't believe you, and you don't believe in me
But you don't have to, you'll still wind up buying my disease
Truly ahead of his time...
Love this remix. Thanks Booka.

RIP. He was a true hero

Iirc Eyedea inspired Grieves as well, which is pretty neat
Bahaha.....wtf?

Carnage said he wrote this in 15 minutes!
Carnage don’t lie that’s the truth in the music we love and loved r I fucking pp
good stuff!
Dope.
Doper than Whitney Houston's coffee table.
Lol
Better than the original beat, sorry Mr Abilties.
+Branan Curran I don't think abilities had anything to do with the original recording. Not 100% sure but pretty sure
+Branan Curran Yeah the original was Quality Programming feat. Eyedea by Booka B, so Abilities didn't have anything to do with that beat. But, this beat is awesome regardless
Ah ok, thanks guys.
2:27
I love it, especially considering at least 1 person will think he's a flat earther for this.
@@pb_monkey what was the intention behind that line?
r eye p
2:25 he was talking about flat earth before it was cool lol
It was cool in the 1600's lol
But he kinda recontextualizes it so it has nothing to do with the flat Earth.

New favorite form of pollution
Even my freestyles a nostalgic song
I'ma be your new favorite form of pollution
