Think I've ran out of things to say Not me If I stop talking I'll die, got a bomb in my chest Motivation is my stress, prolly not for the best Just hope it's not boring. Just trust me Gets better once the sea gets stormy Elephant on my chest and a monkey on my back Devil on my shoulder, and a rabbit in my hat If talent I lack, I hack, Throw game beats on the track Drop hip hop for free, perhaps you've heard my raps Until I get a takedown, off the grid like Weedmaps Rapping like a nerd but I'm still from the streets Only 5'7, sure as hell no athlete So I built up my brain, now I play a different game This dying flame of art I make in my name I can only get better So long as you don't distract Girl get wetter Every time she rewind my track I can only get better So long as you don't distract Girl get wetter Every time she rewind my track Game instructions I read from front to end If I had the chance, most games were rented or borrowed from a friend Only play new games when they've been stolen, can't defend But what about the things taken out my hands That's why I'm doin' everything I can To get what I can Just survival, not trying to be the champion Always bet on underdogs over the top man Doubt my credentials, check my residentials Inhale, exhale, fully presidential All essentials, all paid, no more rentals So reverential to my mental Like a memory card, I record Lifeguard, save that data, got it stored So many bars and beats I'll never get bored If I drop a quarter I'm aiming for the top score I can only get better So long as you don't distract Girl get wetter Every time she rewind my track I can only get better So long as you don't distract Girl get wetter Every time she rewind my track

I got this, watch I got this watch Check the clock It's my time, smash those blocks Let's go up to my place It's out in space Your face When we blast off and I forgot your suitcase Don't worry girl, buy ya new wardrobe Don't worry girl, leave it on the old globe Don't worry girl, buy ya new wardrobe Make another mil, toss it out the window This girl is stacked So I take my shot If you want to crib in my shack Bitch betta put that ass in astronaut Better check the systems Across the solar system Some drinks in my system Fuck earth, I don't miss em Don't worry girl, buy ya new wardrobe Don't worry girl, leave it on the old globe Don't worry girl, buy ya new wardrobe Make another mil, toss it out the window I ain't burning bridges Man, I'm shattering stargates Just listen When I make her scream, you can hear it throughout space That background static Just me gettin at it And that cosmic dust Just me exhaling puffs Don't worry girl, buy ya new wardrobe Don't worry girl, leave it on the old globe Don't worry girl, buy ya new wardrobe Make another mil, toss it out the window

Walking in with my gang That frame, turn me around like a boomerang Going straight to my game Slide right over to your lane Girl you thick like blocks You running through my thoughts I don't just take my shot, I launch Missiles, heat seek, just need your response Not right now, let's just dance real close Just the DS in my pocket, but I still want you the most Necessary, like gravity Please show me, what that ass can do for me So hot she need two screens Let's link up, come play with me No updates no DLC I want the entire thing So hot she need two screens Let's link up, come play with me No updates no DLC I want the entire thing The sky is falling So girl hold on tight No need to rush, We still got all night Had a few close calls But can't have no one and all But when I see you girl I want to bet it all By daybreak things will have changed On different planets now, we both got our own thangs But we had some fun Call me any time you pass through level one So hot she need two screens Let's link up, come play with me No updates no DLC I want the entire thing So hot she need two screens Let's link up, come play with me No updates no DLC I want the entire thing

Girl I thought It was true Thought I'd see The final scene with you Shared a tent with you Reached a save point or two Now we're lost Gone our separate ways Like we went and made Two different saves Only one memory card In my Gamecube now See your name in my Netflix Still hurts like wow But I don't regret the good times we had But admit it got pretty bad Relationship toxic, more radioactive Burn bright Never knew what could happen I hope you happy out there now Not really though Sorry, I'm petty, but you already know me though Already told you that story a couple times before Why change, when I already found my dream girl Things change though Now you up and out my world Maybe it was a dream, maybe I've woken up now Livin' my dream, girls talk to me now But I still think about you sometimes In fact, thank you for these rhymes It all fades in time I hope, that's why I smoke Forget all my lines

I'm on my BS I'm on my BS I'm on my BS No stress I'm on my BS I'm on my BS I'm on my BS No stress I like to have fun Like I'm Kirby But sometimes it gets a little disturbing Sometimes I fall off Sometimes I get on Some rhymes I go hard Sometimes it's this song Ay dawg, what's wrong You don't like my lines Working on these bars so long But I'll just release the instrumental next time I'm on my BS I'm on my BS I'm on my BS No stress I'm on my BS I'm on my BS I'm on my BS No stress Just jotted down some new lines Don't expect me to ever act like I'm trying I run on talent I swear Just snatch thoughts straight out of the air Where you get your ideas from Sit down, let me tell you all about it How you say what you think of Shut up I don't wanna talk about it Any more questions Well I'm not giving any answers Why ya'll stressin I ain't even got to the curse words I'm on my BS I'm on my BS I'm on my BS No stress I'm on my BS I'm on my BS I'm on my BS No stress Got a few more things to announce Like how I'm 'bout to smoke an ounce All these cats about to pounce All these words I mispronounce I'm sober right now I swear But if you catch me lyin' you know I don't care Mixtape of the year Or your money back, order now, be right there On my Broadcast Satellaview What the hell you think I was referring to On this Kirby, Japan only Never in America, that's some bullshit too

Kablooey 00:53
Goin to the top floor, can't be ignored no more One shot the core, going for that high score Run another scam, with my diaphragm Ka-blooey, ka-blam, blow up like explosions Another mixtape grand slam, got 'em rising in the stands Always appreciate the fans, going to my dreamland In my hands, a long list of demands And some demons, always got me schemin Keep writin' til I realize, make money til I'm made of ice Not really, but it would be nice, show you things through my eyes Still fooling around, until I find my sound Still only rap, when no one else around Now I've got my bars up, my extra life a boss-up Time to get a house with a car parked Mexican enigma Put an accent on that question mark

about

Mode 7 presents a new pack of six obscure games remixed into heavy hitting hip hop tracks! Cult classic games like Puyo, Meteos, and games like Drakkhen that aren't cult, nor classic. The games don't matter as much as the banging soundtracks to said games. Incredible music gets that Mode 7 touch in the form of clever hip hop remixes of the source material. Get in touch with the obscure and strange by cranking up the sounds of some more Straight Obscure Shit!

About Mode 7:
Mode 7 is a rapper and writer from Los Angeles, California, taking hip hop to another level with his original style of clever but conscious game music inspired hip hop. Raised on a heavy diet of video games and west coast rap while growing up, Mode 7 now combines and reimagines his love of Super Metroid and Tupac into a unique sound all his own.

Mode 7's style covers a range of hip hop and subject matter. Emotion comes through strong in many ways on Mode 7's music, tackling subjects like love and heartbreak, mental health, inequality, and loss with his own irreverent, often comedic bars. Combined with Mode 7's extensive knowledge of video game history creates fun, fluid, and informative lyrics with a surprising amount of real world depth.

You can find Mode 7 rocking the stage at various conventions and events. Be sure to check out bio.site/mode7 for booking and event info, as well as the latest music!
