lyrics

I don't need no sleep, I got my TV.
Eyes so bloodshot red, not sure if I'm dead.
I never leave this house. I never ever leave this couch.
My blog hits adding up. My woman is packing up.
And she's out the door.

Unplug yourself.
I want my mind back.
I want my time back.

Romance out the door. My laptop loves me more.
I'm wrapped up in her cords. I can't wait to explore.
I'm in love with that wifi so why lie,
Ain't no place that we can't go.
First I turn you on, then you turn me on.
I'm in love with that wifi so why lie,
Ain't no place that we can't go.
First I turn you on, then you turn me on.

Unplug yourself.
I want my mind back.
I want my time back.

My mind's warped. Feeling like a modern day cyborg.
Wires growing out of me.
I probably gonna need some wire cutters soon or be doomed
on this odyssey.
Un-organic policy.
These things getting a mind of their own
making my mind a novelty.
I swear I see codes running across my phone.
Ones and zeroes tell me that I am home.
A paradigm shift. A pair of rhymes sent.
My barrel is aligned, tear an eye quick.
Fix. We sterilize it. Paralyze it.
Americanize it.
I smell the shit coming, I'm ducking fatal
strikes for my life priced and plucked for appraisal.
I had a vision of pathos prenatal:
Babies with logos above they navals.

Unplug yourself.
I want my mind back.
I want my time back.

about

Hearts of Darkness Kansas City, Missouri

The HOD sound evokes memories of Count Basie, James Brown, and Fela Kuti as seductive vocal and percussive horn choruses flow around cutting hip-hop verses and stretched out instrumental solos, all founded upon a hotpants-tight rhythm section which pulls in fans of all ages, cultures and musical tastes. ... more
