Atmosphere - Ode To The Modern Man (Lightning Blend) lyrics

[Slug:]

This is an ode to the modern man

It's the ode to the modern man

This is the ode to the modern man

Word up, this is the modern man

This is that ode to the modern man

This goes out to that modern man

This is the ode to the modern man

It's to the modern man, lightning blend

[Slug:]

Word to B E, I'm a tad bit too easy on self

And maybe I should keep a closer tab on my health

I suppose that it's simple as said and completed

I thought me to attack but in fact again retreated, completed

This word search crumbled it up and ate it

My hunger for my blue-collar heaven keeps me sedated

Escaped it, last night in a dream

And now I sleep, with a flashlight and it seems to keep

The nightmare demons and semen-laced portions parallel and apart

Like Stephen's Avenue in Portland

A much traveled one way, or a slow residential

And if the camels don't stop me I'm a grow with my pencil

Once I climb the skulls of this MC graveyard

I'll see the sun again, I'll jump and run again

So come on over visit cause I got a lot to say

And tell Stress I ain't mad, cause I got my way

But my man Spawn's here now, so I'm a make it brief

Finish up my coffee, gather up my shit and leave

I got an army of peers we fight single-handed

And I won't damage your brain until I understand it

[Spawn:]

You have only one chance to advance to the next stage I'm at

Do you really think you actually will pass through

I have to ask you, did you see what happened to the last dude

Tried to compare styles, word he got his ass chewed

Now with this in mind, do you still wanna bring your shit and find out the hard way

Spawn's not the one to play with, trade blades with

You might as well split your own wrist with the razor

It's best cause I'm crazier

Blazing you, for my own amusement

In tune wit your body, when I split your whole fixture

This is what happens when you're on my shit list-er

Brains to give a blister, so next time you call me sir or mister

It's the word-twister tongue used to make the verbs hit ya

Now do you get the fucking picture?

Well if you, gotta see me you better call up

Cause my behavior blows kids away like a tall wind

I take you all in between my jaws for consumption

MC's and coffee at my luncheon

One or two lumps, and some cream, call the team for the gathering

Bring mics and turntables lets do our thing

[Slug:]

Ha, cause it's an ode to that modern man

This is that ode to the modern man

Yeah, this goes out to that modern man

From Minneapolis St. Paul to that modern man

And it's like a dedication to that modern man

This one here, this is for that modern man

From Atmosphere goin' out to that modern man

It's to that modern man, lightning blend

[Slug:]

What, now for the umpteenth-time we kick rhymes about something

Can't front, I'm frustrated with heads that don't listen

My positions off-balance

It's a constant challenge between the talents and the underlying mission

I can fill your head sore with metaphors, some cute catch-phrases

Filtered through accessible things

But if I don't stay sincere to love and hate

How do I differentiate between chasing cream and chasing dreams

Oh yeah, fuck an MC in my city that wants to diss me

If I was to bounce to Atlanta with Shocker y'all would miss me

So kiss me, smack dab on the asshole while you battle

I'm with your wife sharing a Newcastle

Big up to Gene Pool cause he's the modern man

Word up, that kid Abuse, that kids a modern man

To Self-One, yo, that kids a modern man

Full Circle, you know them kids is modern men

The Native Ones, word up to that modern man

Beyond Extreme, this one goes to the modern man

The Dynospectrum out to that modern man

From Atmosphere goes out to that modern man

Word up this is the ode to the modern man

It goes, like, one time for that modern man

This goes out here now to that modern man

It's to that modern man, it's to that modern man

Y-yo, this is the ode to the modern

It goes word-up to that modern man

It's for that modern man, its for that modern man

It's for that modern man lightning blend
