In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I'm complex from my station, I flex heads like a Hatian
Rockin the mic with solidification
My confederation is the Rascalz
With inspiration, we were movin alien nations
Because all it takes is one bar like Mars
Possessed a spectatin emcee with the spirit of Jaws
Try to take mine, you will find
Try to combine with your own, but you can not clone the dark tone
One of a kind, I'm all alone
I make the vowels high with em, with my words I bone
Apponents, as they perrish, I cherrish every moment
I bliff with the spliff, as I relish and consolement
CHORUS:
You can't, he can't
Find, blind
You're left behind by my scientific mind
[Misfit]
Beyond compare, will I dare
A glutton for punishment
You're starring so deeply
Cause of my hypnotic
Predicament you're in ... now
As I mention
Turns of abuse
Laughin, it's too late for a truce
I pass the physical all mentally
I got the chemistry
Them other's are history
When I shape em like geometry
So parallel my gram
You must be hittin with the third
Your visions ... blurred
Trapezoid and obscure by the right one
The Misfit, maverick, here's the light one ...
Two, three then you will see the
Subliminal message
When pros flow
By a morse code tactic
My advice, obstain from overuse
Please don't overdose, in soul
You'll needs a boost
Hooked like your sweet tooth
On a lyrical fountain-head
We'll learn sure the malnurished when I gets fed
Puttin kings in check, only true be fortold
I'm wrecking his fashion
By makin a statement with this tongue lashin
In ways you can't figure, is I be
Swingin a size 44 bat
Like a Louisville slugger
And when this ends
To the mound, I be the pitcher
Do you get the picture
It's time to substitute you for a pinch hitter
[Red 1]
I gotta get my bucks in for my million deductions
Of solitary thoughts finds a period of much, man
I bust when I feel it, gotta dust them
That is my custom, cause even on the mic your still hustlin
Your wrestling with a situation, you're learning a lesson
A new thing taught is considered as progression
For who is lustin my possessions
Book em a date with fate, and watch me serve em in a session
A state that is super keen, which includes
The ability for forseein which you can elude
I see every move but kinda act too soon
Like a typhoon, bring it to ya time at noon
CHORUS (2x)
[Misfit]
I'm back for two, let me show you
How I threw this together
Watch emcess run as I mak em scatter
Hear this, you will fear this
Your arms they'll get graved out, it's a must
I burried us
So comprehend what I composed to scare foes
I be the master in this art like Ted-O
Z lock the zip code, I'm the brother on the block, wanna explode
Them others singing from the jock strap, when I walk I'm smooth
I keep my composure
Never slipped, I got gripped like a Range Rover
Science be on your graph
Your task, reach me at my peak
So unique, them others be wishin they can speak from the tip
As I stand at the summit, with an overhead view
To watch emcees as they plummit
All go it this hip hop flow
Misfit, there ain't no way you can ignore
Or snore on the physics
Science is fit for the display
Forget your novice days cause that's child's play
[Red 1]
The former baracade on the weak, is my crusade (no more, man)
Who seeks aid with the trade so I will invade
With my brigade, of the men who are brave, not afraid
Renegades, escapadin on a wild rampage
So no defeat
Not to ferar the raw like me
The concrete athlete, I gots ya on the retreat
With the fleet of chemists that will blemish your whole alliance
So take heed as you proceed or get blind with the science
Indeed, I will succeed
I'm disregardin all pardons as your begging, please
To be relieved by the warden, shit is locked down tight
With the seal, that is steal made with kryptonite
I'm making me that my heels once you've lost the sight
Lost the light, now everything resembles night
Because I'm shinin, I'm blindin with my scientific spray that be specific
I don't think that you shall see another day
CHORUS (4x)
Rockin the mic with solidification
My confederation is the Rascalz
With inspiration, we were movin alien nations
Because all it takes is one bar like Mars
Possessed a spectatin emcee with the spirit of Jaws
Try to take mine, you will find
Try to combine with your own, but you can not clone the dark tone

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
