I grew up livin' like time was borrowed, no tomorrow
The shogun's fallacy, samurai chose to follow
Cloaked in sorrow, harrowing experience serious
Trauma come in many forms, onslaught fast and furious
At a young age, entered in the fray, many areas
Different arenas, amplified mind prepared to carry us
Carry us, levitating chariots engage
Fly above the barriers, they're clearly in the way
Are you hearing me today? no ulterior motives
Just superior focus, master your primary locus
Locusts let unto the wind, wherever they go it is chosen
Universal law guides from the shadows, never broken
Put my hope into the East, new day, risen for the feast
Try and beat the sunset, to the West, prayin' for peace
Past was then, we lock it out or we're bound to face defeat
CTRL, ALT, DELETE, reset, but I would not accept retreat
Hook 1
Heads up..
Keep your head up, keep moving to the East
The rain will let up, keep cruising through the streets
The illusions never cease, until you get the keys
Open up the doors, keep moving to the East
Heads up..
Keep your head up, keep moving to the beat
Eyes to the future, just make sure to keep receipts
Ask you will receive, the past is gone so let it be
Open up your mind and keep moving to the East
Verse 2
We do it grass roots, take a trip through the back routes
Shortcuts and trap doors, tunnels with the black roof
No cat, but the snakes outside keep it rat proof
Snafu? Shotshell in the clip, let the strap loose
The mind is my classroom, gone but be back soon
Sometimes we need a break, still limping off the last wound
Still trippin' off the past dude? gotta get it past you
Hard times don't last forever, try and do your best to last through
Try and laugh too, or at least let a chuckle out
Let the buckle out, float above the doubt
The truth loves the South where the fires bring heat
Breathe in, breathe out, set your eyes to the East
Try and rise with the sun, surprised by a son
Grow wise, be the one, show him how it's done
Then like a bullet leaves the gun, I'll be gone
A new day from the gloom, to the East where we run
Hook 2
Heads up..
Keep your head up, keep moving to the East
The rain will let up, keep cruising through the streets
The illusions never cease, until you get the keys
Open up the doors, keep moving to the East
Heads up..
Keep your head up, keep moving to the beat
Eyes to the future, just make sure to keep receipts
Ask you will receive, the past is gone so let it be
Open up your mind and keep moving to the East

Hardcore Hip-Hop / Rap over dope beats that go BANG.
For years, HiddenRoad & M-Acculate
scoured the underground to assemble TONS of gritty albums and songs featuring themselves and other like minded rappers and producers from around the world. Culminating with the 2022 release of Hidden Underground 4, one story has officially come to its end; and yet, a new book begins.....more
"...Florid, aromatic Ambient plunderphonics, at a nexus between found sound appropriation and minimalist arrangement, rainswept ambience and chilling harmonics besmoke the mind in vapourous swelter and numbing melodious introversia..."

This release just has this strong presence that grabs the listener's attention, yet doesn't feel overwhelming. Each track flows into the next flawlessly, so while they're all good on their own, their sum is next level. Great production! 乃 尺 乇 卂 ᗪ 丨 几 卂 ㄒ ㄖ 尺
