Hungry Landing

Intro

(beatbox build)

Yeah... raw

Verse 1

Crackle in the vinyl, I'm spiralin' down the stairwell

Every step an echo chamber, hammerin' the player

Lip-roll fill the spaces where the bass drum settles

Throat bass rattle, my syllables become the metal

Upright thumpin' through the concrete, 88 on the tempo

Hungry on the landing, I been starvin' since the get-go

Multisyllabic puzzle, I unravel what they can't hold

K-snare inward, I been buried but the ant gold

Chorus

Stairwell cipher, the reverb never lies

Every line a lifeline cut between the tides

Stairwell cipher, I been climbin' in the dark

Echo off the walls, I'm leavin' fingerprints and marks

Hook

(Inward click... outward breath)

It's the raw

Verse 2

I ain't got a plug, I got a patch cord and a bad cough

Spittin' through the stairwell, watch the plaster chip and crack off

You want autotune? I got a hallway full of static

Human on the beatbox, every pattern automatic

Upright loopin' lazy, let the dust collect and layer

I been waitin' on the landing, I been sayin' it for years, like

Four flights down, every sound carries double

Lungs full of concrete, I been livin' in the rubble

Chorus

Stairwell cipher, the reverb never lies

Every line a lifeline cut between the tides

Stairwell cipher, I been climbin' in the dark

Echo off the walls, I'm leavin' fingerprints and marks

Bridge

No computer, just a mouth and a hunger

And a bassline that been loopin' since the summer

Throat bass tremble, make the stairwell feel like thunder

Hungry emcee, watch 'em wonder

Outro

(beatbox fades with reverb)

Shh... listen
