lyrics

VERSE 1:
So many greats, gone before their time
If I'm threating the system I'll be gone before mine
Life on the line, that's the only way with revolution
Searching for signs 'til I find a peaceful resolution
They got Che, Martin, and Malcolm
JFK met his day, but I'ma find a new outcome
And not a one is getting out of here alive
So we try to make our mark to be immortalized
Whether through love, glory, or bloodlines
We all wage a war to come out victors above Time
A losing battle but a worthy cause
And the Reaper's shadow never gave me pause
So many lost while living
Dead inside while others think they're winning
They gained the world through sinning
Lost souls, hope we'll be forgiven
Yeah, God willing

CHORUS 1:
They're lying beneath you
In shallow graves of skulls and bones
(I'm a samsara capturer)
They're lying beneath you
(Better attach to the Rapturer)
To take their place among the stones
(I'm a samsara capturer)
They're lying beneath you
(Better attach to the Rapturer)
I am the grass
I cover all
(I'm a samsara capturer)
They're lying beneath you

VERSE 2:
One by one the bodies fall
Can't escape the grave, but steady try to stall
They lie beneath us but their souls arise
With so much to teach us so don't close your eyes
What if death is like waking from a dream?
New life, new world, no more rowing down the stream
And when I'm gone don't mourn for me
It's a return to the Real, no more forgery
I'm starting to feel Pac's fear of reincarnation
We appear down here in mental stravation
Leave my writings and my raps to this damned nation
While I'm fighting all the traps that lead to damnation
Ancestral bones adorn the plantations
Cause there's freedom in death, what a translation
Masters preaching patience steady vow breaking
Slaves sang spirit hymns that spoke of salvation
Even now waitin'

CHORUS 2:
Still lying beneath you
In shallow graves of fresh laid bones
(I'm a samsara capturer)
They're lying around you
(Better attach to the Rapturer)
They're buried down beneath your homes
(Samsara capturer)
They're lying beneath you
(Better attach to the Rapturer)
I am the grass
Let me work
(I'm a samsara capturer)
They're lying beneath you

VERSE 3:
All men die, I'm a man, therefore...
Really there's no need to hear more
Chilly when the Reaper comes forth
Silly that we lock the front door
Time's a consumer of the flesh and bone
Imagine a future where you're dead and gone
I left my words but they're blowing in the wind
I wonder if my grandson is even listening
But then again, life is but a dream
Death's awakening
No matter how it seems
The cycle never ends
Because we're drowning in sin
Now and again, how to defend
The power to win when we know our end
Is near - it's here - yeah
I lived by the sword, died by the Lord
Repeat it more and more
Til I'm a Samara capturer
Better attach to the Rapturer

about

Hopudoshi Columbus, Ohio

Hopudoshi is an American rap artist who currently resides in the Philippines. His introspective rhymes offer social commentary with a mystical bent.

Hopudoshi, Hopanova, and Hop-Leo all represent different sides of my personality. Sometimes they are in harmony and sometimes they are in conflict. The differences between them are the reason for some of my ambivalent feelings towards certain issues.
