Lyrics

Halloween

[Verse 1]

It's like mad heads is easily amused

Or is it just confused and not man enough to choose

Whatever, fall seven and disappear in rear, fear

The wall of distortion, my lyrics come clear

You wear the mask to disguise the real in you

But that's plain to my view 'cause your soul is see through

Influenced by the mass media, repeating the

Gimmicks they feed you, they break and mislead you

When in the end they come around to beat and try to bleed you

Saw you with the liars, the bootleg buyers

'Cause nowadays niggas wanna play the Michael Mayers

Arsonists sets fires

[Verse 2]

Every night is Halloween, the reason of the fakeness

Acting like someone you're not, man I cannot take this

Your wrong moves, why don't you show and prove

Yeah, you're claiming that you're hard when you've got no groove

Smoove as you wanna be, hard as you can be

You say you pack a gun 'cause it comes in handy

But a mask is just an image, so who you tryna electrify?

You won't get props by smoking weed and gettin' high

All your rhymes are fable, so open up your eyes

'Cause sooner or later somebodys gonna say you recognize

That's why you're arson in almost every part of your scene

Yeah, Dimension Five is living every night of Halloween

[Chorus]

Everyday is Halloween, nothing's what it seems

Brothers fake the truth when it's all just a scheme

Everyday is Halloween, nothing's what it seems

Brothers fake the truth when it's all just a scheme

[Verse 3]

This shit spooky just like this, these niggas has got me gushin'

Blood from fission utensils, come around my way serve tensions

Apprehensions, my face is flesh

Cloaks get disposed of, let the. [?] broken nose [?]

Your atmosphere has being crushed and polluted

Your soul secluded, brothers will look like a nuisance

Your souls inside your body, masquerading, keep your cover

And wrangle men, it's takin' over, see the numbers

It's a hell around the way, Halloween is everyday

I get covered of cliches, guess what, we're all the same

Shiver me timbers, boogeymen, I see your true forms

Coated with piss, son, so I persist to let my [?]

Whores of forcified chills so let me yield

And pass the microphone on to my brothers in dimension field

[Verse 4]

If you the living dead, I dread these in and out because of hollow heads

In the house they be soon on the street they walk the jagged edge

Bet you know the fist, the motive of the phony masked men

Portrayin' ghouls and goblins pack the gun but it ain't grabbin', quest the coffin

'Cause fear of darkness speedin' up your walkin', racin' the wrong race

But heat is coming soon and Earth's the war place

The plastic be creatin' something drastic in the dead zone

I'm praying to God for safety every day before I leave home

'Cause brothers that are envious of Arsonists

They diss behind my back with enemies but in my face they're on my dick

Never know whose your friend or foe 'til shits about to blow

So make sure you shinin' colors true, the fakeness gotta go

[Chorus]

Everyday is Halloween, nothing's what it seems

Brothers fake the truth when it's all just a scheme

Everyday is Halloween, nothing's what it seems

Brothers fake the truth when it's all just a scheme

[Verse 5]

Happy halloween, ain't no trick-or-treating here

Just reaching near to defeating fear while MCs ain't speakin' clear

About their false advertisements, talkin' they hard

Oppose god of war, god and the squad will pull the card

Multiple identities 'cause friends of mine turn enemies

To end your replica when I step to ya, it's the penalty

The end will be the last, unless one fails

And speak the Devil's evil just to get them sales

Demon strike in uncanny ways, I watch many blaze

Survive plenty days, get out of any maze

In the streets its a task to keep from the mask

So put the lies in the trash and kick Satan up the ass

[Verse 6]

Use my Malcolm X-Rays to see right through your mask

Figure like you gonna blast, shaken 'cause you're mad

Talkin' bout guns, couldn't catch a body if I threw you one

No my name ain't Hadeem, but I'm comin' harder son

It's a different world when I release the truth about you

Once the word is spreaded, all your sons are gonna doubt you

The blind will see, deaf will hear, the senile will never forget

And, oh yeah, for all you niggas talkin' shit

You have the right to remain silent, fuck your moment of silence

We need to start the revolution and stop the violence

The highness and wileness is stirring up confusion

You think you see a hard nigga, it's just an optical illusion

[Chorus]

Everyday is Halloween, nothing's what it seems

Brothers fake the truth when it's all just a scheme

Everyday is Halloween, nothing's what it seems

Brothers fake the truth when it's all just a scheme
