Its funny how Kill Bill and Rav just dropped their new album and im still bumping Ramona. It's just such a great tape, hope 2019 is the year of Rav and Billy :)
As the years go on I begin to realise more and more just how talented a rapper Rav is and not just the silly little internet lofi rapper I listened to in my early teens. His verse in this song is quite technically and lyrically creative and not something just any rapper can achieve.
[Verse 1: Kill Bill] My penmanship slips, sloppy as all hell Both feet dangle from the top of the guardrail Streetfight stance, get up off of him, he guard well Lost on the road, tryin' to find if his star fell Heavy as barbell, his thoughts remained and dipped Deep in construction, but he lost the manuscripts Break through the skull, slide across the candle-lit floor No tellin' what's in store for the boar Life is a balancing act that I can't keep up But I'm rollin' with the punches by rollin' a couple trees up It slows me. The solution turns to problems Momma told me keep my head out the clouds, I heard it often Now I'm dead to the world, where my coffin? Catch me sittin' by the gravity bong, you heard the coughin' Time to sleep, seems like it's all that I do I say I'm down to the death, but I don't talk to my crew Man I'm withdrawn, grippin' a big bong, a tall cup I haven't even made it, people sayin' I'm washed up Y'all got me fucked up... literally It's puff puff to get to sleep, puff puff for energy I fucked up, synergy lost, I'm depressed Feel the world crumble 'round me, like it's all for the best I don't fuck with you lames tryin' to talk and I'm stressed I'm screamin' "Fuck the world," from the top of my chest Kill Bill is JINZO and JINZO will kill Bill He change when the wind blows, the windows are still filthy Fog the vision, the 5-7 split That's a long division. Cuttin' it back just means Longer spliff ends. Dead to the medicine I've fallin' victim to my own evil deeds I'm just sittin' in the static of my old frequencies [Verse 2: Rav] I ask the voices when they'll stop, they all answer, "Forfeit!" Exploring this torment and dormancy, it's morbid Every one of my demons is now currently in orbit My every fear mocks me, it murders me to live In the living room of a dying world that I rage war with But I refuse to die in the world that I was born in Seeking peace of mind, but my mind pieces torture My existence and I'm trying to resist it, but it's boring I've seen through their pattern: first they laugh, then run from me It's like I'm tryin' to sell cigarettes to these tobacco companies But why do I insist to make them happy when I know not Of happiness myself, sitting trapped within my shell? If that act alone don't seem backwards in itself Then consider all my vices that keep damaging my health It seems that I'll never reach the bandage on the shelf And it's not that I can't reach it, I just haven't got the will ... So what's the point, then? Why seek a partner, a house, or employment? If you don't ever experience enjoyment Then all the time you spend just gets flushed down the toilet Well, or at least that's just how I see things Don't find joy in pricey things: clothes, cars, diamond rings Y'all keep saying that I think so dark, enlighten me Every expectation is just so large, it frightens me Tired of this planet, but no star's inviting me You tell me to speak up, but when I open up, you hide from me You're all happy or just all trying to lie to me And so my dark thought refinery's still functionin' Tryin' to punch through the walls cause I hope To discover lots of cameras, "Rav this was a hoax!" This was all a ruse to raise your wrath, really Now you can live happily, but the fact actually is... I'm still livin' on a planet Where my self interests don't matter Where my selfishness won't vanish I'm still abandoned Still livin' on a planet Where my self interests don't matter Where my selfishness won't vanish I'm still abandoned
@@vivi-wr8nm late reply here lol but resin definitely takes a bit to get into. I at first wasn't really into Resin as much as their other work but now it's definitely one of my favorite albums. Hopefully you end up loving it too if you haven't already :)
Bro your damn music has changed how I view allot of new artists these days. And I want to thank you for exploring such an amazing genre and style of a wordsmith
Love it! And the lyrics hit me a bit. Thank you for writing honestly. Makes me feel less lonely when I can relate to someone else through their artistic expression.

Ramona might be one of my favorite albums ever
Rav and Bill got every year since they started in my opinion
Still bumping this
@@MultiLittlegamer whos here after keep the change? Trick question. everyone should be

[Verse 1: Kill Bill]
My penmanship slips, sloppy as all hell
Both feet dangle from the top of the guardrail
Streetfight stance, get up off of him, he guard well
Lost on the road, tryin' to find if his star fell
Heavy as barbell, his thoughts remained and dipped
Deep in construction, but he lost the manuscripts
Break through the skull, slide across the candle-lit floor
No tellin' what's in store for the boar
Life is a balancing act that I can't keep up
But I'm rollin' with the punches by rollin' a couple trees up
It slows me. The solution turns to problems
Momma told me keep my head out the clouds, I heard it often
Now I'm dead to the world, where my coffin?
Catch me sittin' by the gravity bong, you heard the coughin'
Time to sleep, seems like it's all that I do
I say I'm down to the death, but I don't talk to my crew
Man I'm withdrawn, grippin' a big bong, a tall cup
I haven't even made it, people sayin' I'm washed up
Y'all got me fucked up... literally
It's puff puff to get to sleep, puff puff for energy
I fucked up, synergy lost, I'm depressed
Feel the world crumble 'round me, like it's all for the best
I don't fuck with you lames tryin' to talk and I'm stressed
I'm screamin' "Fuck the world," from the top of my chest
Kill Bill is JINZO and JINZO will kill Bill
He change when the wind blows, the windows are still filthy
Fog the vision, the 5-7 split
That's a long division. Cuttin' it back just means
Longer spliff ends. Dead to the medicine
I've fallin' victim to my own evil deeds
I'm just sittin' in the static of my old frequencies
[Verse 2: Rav]
I ask the voices when they'll stop, they all answer, "Forfeit!"
Exploring this torment and dormancy, it's morbid
Every one of my demons is now currently in orbit
My every fear mocks me, it murders me to live
In the living room of a dying world that I rage war with
But I refuse to die in the world that I was born in
Seeking peace of mind, but my mind pieces torture
My existence and I'm trying to resist it, but it's boring
I've seen through their pattern: first they laugh, then run from me
It's like I'm tryin' to sell cigarettes to these tobacco companies
But why do I insist to make them happy when I know not
Of happiness myself, sitting trapped within my shell?
If that act alone don't seem backwards in itself
Then consider all my vices that keep damaging my health
It seems that I'll never reach the bandage on the shelf
And it's not that I can't reach it, I just haven't got the will
... So what's the point, then?
Why seek a partner, a house, or employment?
If you don't ever experience enjoyment
Then all the time you spend just gets flushed down the toilet
Well, or at least that's just how I see things
Don't find joy in pricey things: clothes, cars, diamond rings
Y'all keep saying that I think so dark, enlighten me
Every expectation is just so large, it frightens me
Tired of this planet, but no star's inviting me
You tell me to speak up, but when I open up, you hide from me
You're all happy or just all trying to lie to me
And so my dark thought refinery's still functionin'
Tryin' to punch through the walls cause I hope
To discover lots of cameras, "Rav this was a hoax!"
This was all a ruse to raise your wrath, really
Now you can live happily, but the fact actually is...
I'm still livin' on a planet
Where my self interests don't matter
Where my selfishness won't vanish
I'm still abandoned
Still livin' on a planet
Where my self interests don't matter
Where my selfishness won't vanish
I'm still abandoned
Thanks Dude ^^
I like his new work but i think ramona is always gonna slap
I like most of his music but I'm not gonna lie, having trouble getting into Resin

Kill you are killer with the wordplay, but when you add RAV it just blows the roof of the track!
One of my favorite duos

Bill’s from South Carolina, Rav was born in the Soviet Union
@@bobjenkins9572 Fake, Rav wasn't born
@@BalthorYT Real, Rav was artificially created
