about

D'Chaos begins to explore the alternative side of hip hop. He collaborates with Uzbeki guitarist/vocalist - Archie Sundance - to blend drums, guitars, vocals, and hard lyrics into this abstract piece called "Strokes"

lyrics

I dreamed about
Just rockin' the stage
Using other people's words
Now it seems
Fait accompli
Has taken over my nerves

And that was it
Writin' song after song
I'm accomplishin'
To create my own bangers
My own hits
Tryna prove like my poetry
I can spit

Uhh, time to occupy
That space 'tween ya ears been compromised
Now I wouldn't lie
I would just disguise
My truth in order for you not to despise
My rise
Cause we all know Chaos can hypnotize
Long as the payoff can crystallize
I'll invoke the pathos to aggrandize
My rise in time they'll be playin' me
While groups rise and die blamin' e
Goes to show they weren't meant to be
I cut myself down from the tree
Then stepped over bodies of broken dreams
Uhh, but it always seems
I'm still another cog in the damn machine
That's damaging
To my self-esteem
I guess I should stop nothin' to achieve
Here

Hey
Don't leave yet
I'm still here
I promise I'll make what you wanna hear
This music thing I'm diving deep into
So for your faith, here's what I'm gona do

I will not stop my clock
When the glock comes to knock
I will block as it cocks
But the shock spills Medoc
On my face and my socks
Cause you thought you a hawk
More a vulture no squawk
I didn't mean to go ornithological
Just sayin' that your myth's comical
It's easy to rhyme, quite logical
Did you know I'm a cosmological
Being
I see you agreeing
Keep noddin' ya head to the scripts that's beatin'
Against ya ears as ya start to bleed
That ignorance out, so here's a treat
Whether the planets align
Or the stars compete
In a binary system, well visually speaking
My point is these
Astronomical feats
Are birthed from the essence that created me
See
But I ain't done
Rhymes bouncin' off my tongue shootin' faster than guns
Hit ya with a force of 100 trillion suns
What I see 11 oh ways I've won
I begun to blow ya mind
But just last week I had a parking fine
I tried to pay in lent and tip with rhymes
But they said they can't exchange at this time
Was my card denied
I learned to thrive
Playin' Russian Roulette with plastic dimes
Got higher stakes than Stabscotch with knives
If I'm on a date and the bill is mine
Or else I'll leave that girl behind
Ain't got no shame s'how I survive
I'll change my name then reassign
To any location that springs to mind

My exile brought me a sense of clarity
I found my art will always be there for me
The pen's my friend and gives me free therapy
The end results will be New World currency

Don't leave yet
Don't leave yet
I'm still here
I'm still here
I promise I'm makin' what you need to hear
Need to hear
This singin' thing won't make it habit
I just want to see if I could make it happen

Make it happen
If I could make it happen
Make it happen
