Deca - "War"
Музыка
Nothing new, same old hustle and subterfuge
Suffer through shockwaves we've grown accustomed to
Up the views, more skewed coverage and buzzard food
Trouble brews, and pundits fish in the blood that pools
Nationwide they're harmonizing like the Four Tops
Warhawks on Park Place and Boardwalk
Crying out for scorched earth
It's like we've been here before,
charting each seismic shift with a pen ear to floor
Our free and fair press every step beating bare chests
Which three letter agency's inking their checks
Safe and sound somewhere lost in the crowd
But rays of light don't shine through white phosphorus clouds
Fan the violent flames, ready the troops, fuel the
furnace with
Half truths and outright lies akin to
urban myths
If it bleeds it leads remove the tourniquet
Fever pitch perfect fit for a circus it's,
The age old hustle, the nature of the beast
To say let's split the cake, then take another piece
Peace, Peace, Peace, Peace
No solace in the eye for eyeball their calling for
You know the mantra well colonize call it yours
Peak distortion reached, to each his portion of
devil's pie
Explore the depths and depressurize
It's all there in plain sight clear as daylight,
birds of prey on the world stage playing brave knights
Inadequate words for lived loss and anguish,
but they're cut from the same cloth they wash your brain with
Strange it's lopsided nature never caught your eye
Crying out but not for lives lost across divides
Tax dollars not for butter but guns,
It's not a tooth for a tooth it's five dozen for one
It's brute force living under the thumb,
stripped of pretense
Reducing city blocks to ash in self defense
Learn to love the bomb, act like nothing's wrong
Dusk til Dawn snatching crumbs from your brother's palm
If it detonates when all faith and trust is gone
You won't have to turn your oven on to make duck l'orange
The age old hustle, the nature of the beast
To say let's split the cake, then take another piece
Peace, Peace, Peace, Peace
No solace in the eye for eyeball their calling for
You know the mantra well colonize call it yours

Deca is the most underrated lyricist of our time.

He is not underrated, just not playing to the tune of the Pied piper! Why are people so surprised that pop-culture is controlled by insidious interest and thus music such as this goes unnoticed?

Deca is an artist everyone should be listening to. Inshallah this song will spread to the masses.
This is upper echelon top tier lyricism! For me, Deca is the pinnacle/apex of the art of hip hop in its' purest form! One love Deca!

can just cosign since my reply would just be a wordier nerdier version of the same sentiment. it probably is somewhere on some track already because its my reaction to this guys work pretty constantly consistantly. its the kind of shit im on.
_"Tax dollars not for butter but guns, it's not a tooth for a tooth but five dozen for one"_ Man the whole world needs to hear this right now

My personal favorite is a tie between "Safe and sound somewhere lost in the crowd, but rays of light don't shine through white phosphorus clouds" and "Crying out but not for lives lost across divides" So poignant and so true.
Your music has got me through some dark times. Thank you

It's a good day when Deca drops a new track
Deca the Bard!🎉
I’ve been rapping since 98 since I was 11 deca is god tier period
Deca; truly the bard of dreamlike lyricism and sound, another masterclass flow to add to the repertoire. For as long as I have been listening, I've never had the opportunity to see a live performance and will be the only artist I'll travel at all or anywhere for.

Yeah, my great regret was not going to see him outside of Asheville North Carolina when he came with homeboy sandman. I told my friend if we didn't go we'd probably never see him live on the south again.

Saw him when he was with Homeboy Sandman in Boston at the Middle East venue. One of the only rappers I've seen live where I actually know all the words and am belting them out in the back of the room haha. Also super genuine guy. We were outside smoking butts and I saw him give a homeless guy that walked up to us some money. Don't remember how much, but that's not the point - he's just a cool dude.
DECA IS UNDERRATED AND UNDERAPPRECIATED. Sending love and greetings from the Indian Himalayas. just want to let you know that you've got a fan over here
Deca the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good to hear new Deca. Much ❤ Keep real.
Some wise words right there..
Dopest shit in the 12th dimensional hemisphere
Deca is so damn good it just gets better and better for people who've heard all his material.
Dope doesn't do it justice .. Deca is an ascended master.
You know Deca thank you. Keep speaking our truth, for everyone thinking about reality. You seemed to have taken the same soul as Kahlil Gibran, T.S. Elliot and KRS One and all those other poets that could define reality in a way that we all can relate but can't express. Teach, keep learning. Your work is more important to more people than you think. Blessings to you 🙏
the goat returns.
And now, some Deca :)
Love u Deca ❤
Yesssssss
Keep telling the real truth
Love it ❤ New album? Thank you for my life's mantra. Peace , love, unity 🙌

What an amazing artist, such a pure and raw form of hip-hop expression. Keep flowing, you will blow up like a grenade on the Frontlines in today's European and Middle East wars.
Ayo!
'Up the views, more skewed coverage and buzzard food' Fire wordplay off the bat to refer to BuzzFeed and sensationalist 'journalism' - perfectly hits on the themes of the first verse When Deca drops its like xmas ♥

Seers seared fricassee near their fear of rest best flesh; unfortunately, yes .
You had me at 3 letter agency 🧠
Deca, Aesop and Marlon. What more can you ask for when it comes to introspection and world commentary.
very good!
Is there any way I can get ahold of Deca? I’ve been an avid appreciator of his music for a while, I make music myself aswell and I thought it would be worth a shot to try and connect for a feature, I wanna wake this poet up bro
Also all i want is an aesop deca track. Would be a track that would be bumped for centeries to come
The bard is back when most needed.
Lets goo!! :))))
Lets gooo 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This mesaage is important! The collective punishment going on is entirely inhumane

The artist is not underrated. People need to stop making that statement. Pop-culture was never designed to cater to intellect or virtuous purpose. It's a money making machine. Get to rights with that fact! #scarecrowzw
More deca!! Is this a new tune/album?
Love it but the mastering seems light on this? Might be my headphones.

Since I can't rap, I asked AI to write a TY note in your style. In dreamlike flows, your beats and rhymes, they lift me high, Gratitude in every note, under the vast sky. Your art's a journey, through soundscapes, you guide, Thanks, Deca, for the playlists, a euphoric ride. In your music, found solace, in every crafted line, A symphony of thought and soul, in your design. Each track a story, a lyrical feat, In the rhythm of your words, my worries deplete. Your voice, a beacon in the shadow's embrace, In the heart of the beat, I find my place. So here's to you, with words I bestow, For the times your melodies helped me grow. Deca, your music, a timeless bond, In the harmony of life, we resonate strong.
