Baby What's crackin'? I can't believe my eyes Now you see What happens When you snuff out his lies She She know she fine She know she fine She She know she fine She know Over Our city They all stop and stare This year ain't Been pretty But when my camera flares You don't look scared She She know she fine She know she fine She She know she fine She know She know she fine She know she fine She know she fine Y'all can go stick it where the sun don't shine She She know she fine She know

Unicorn 03:19
Don't say it too loud They don't need to find out Hiding from the Holy Ghost Flying to the left coast Caught up in the clouds And I'm sucking helium balloons Girl you've been handmade to be your own rebel Were born a handmaid, now you're dying with the devil Don't gotta read your mind, babe, you on the level In sin living we revel now It's your fate to be adorned Not to feel self-righteous scorn It's not too late, you've been reborn So let's go find our unicorn We gotta find our unicorn We're taking it slow Under the rainbow It started at Soba when you told me you got sway Your life in a bubble, now you break in a bad way So tired of behaving Got stuck in the flow And I'm dipping my toes in too Girl you've been handmade to be your own rebel Were born a handmaid, now you're dying with the devil Don't gotta read your mind, babe, you on the level In sin living we revel now It's your fate to be adorned Not to feel self-righteous scorn It's not too late, you've been reborn So let's go find our unicorn We gotta find our unicorn I'm down with you Are you down with me? Is there something more, more, more? I'm down with you Are you down with me? Is there something more, more? Girl you've been handmade to be your own rebel Were born a handmaid, now you're dying with the devil Don't gotta read your mind, babe, you on the level In sin living we revel now It's your fate to be adorned Not to feel self-righteous scorn It's not too late, you've been reborn So let's go find our unicorn We gotta find our unicorn I'm down with you Are you down with me? Is there something more, more, more? I'm down with you Are you down with me? Is there something more, more?

Easy Sound 03:12
I owe it all I owe it all I owe it all To he who holds the word I owe it all I owe it all I owe it all To the warlord I adore I'm California bound That's where my brother finally found it He finally found it He plays that easy sound It's coming from way underground And oh I hear it loud I owe it all I owe it all I owe it all To he who holds the word I owe it all I owe it all I owe it all To the warlord I adore I'm rolling into town New AK with 300 rounds 'Cause I made a vow They play that easy sound It's coming from way underground And oh I hear it loud So loud I'm devastated, lost I'm Cali bound Oh I know the cost I'm finally found Poor and living free It's underground Oh I'm going down That easy sound Oh I hear it loud I hear it loud I hear it loud That easy sound I hear it loud I hear it loud I hear it loud I owe it all I owe it all I owe it all To he who holds the word I owe it all I owe it all I owe it all To the warlord I adore

The Rhyme 02:15
Okay, so So every virgin around me is getting married to pay their child support By the age of twenty-two Just say the rhyme Say the rhyme for me one more time They're so blinded by the light that's coming through stained glass windows I just know they're gonna ghost me soon Just say the rhyme Say the rhyme for me one more time See all the boys rockin' their flip-flops in the snow And the girls making raindrops Ain't nobody got a fuckin' clue One time Say the rhyme for me one more time Now I slither and wither, coming hitherto Everything Howard Stern ever believed ain't true Say the rhyme Say the rhyme for me one more time Red touchin' black, so safe for Jack Red touchin' yellow, gonna kill a fine fella Red touchin' black, so safe for Jack Red touchin' yellow, it's gonna kill a fine fella Uh, red touchin' black, so safe for Jack Red touchin' yellow, gonna kill a fine fella Red touchin' black, so safe for Jack Red touchin' yellow Just say the rhyme It ain't no crime I'm finally learning how to die Say it clear I have no fear The end is finally drawing nigh Say the rhyme for me one more time Red touchin' black, so safe for Jack Red touchin' yellow, gonna kill a fine fella Red touchin' black, so safe for Jack Red touchin' yellow, it's gonna kill a fine fella

All my days Since I was born I've been made But now I'm a son of the house no more Constant craving For your high reward I begged and prayed But now I'm a son of the house no more A son of the house no more I'm a son, son A son of the house no more Never won, won Your Comfort Inn holy war What have I done, done? I'm not your frozen chosen no more I'm a son of the house no more More I wanted it for so long To be annointed in song I wanted it so bad That I cum alone in my double bed Well I don't really need you now I'm not trying to be rude It's not me, it's you I really need you now I've spoken too soon, yeah I'm such a goddamn fool I'm a son, son A son of the house no more Never won, won Your Comfort Inn holy war What have I done, done? I'm not your frozen chosen no more I'm a son of the house no more I miss you so bad I'm a son of the house no more I miss you so bad I'm a son of the house no more I miss you so bad I'm a son of the house no more You can't lose what you never had I'm a son, son A son of the house no more Never won, won Your Comfort Inn holy war What have I done, done? I'm not your frozen chosen no more I'm a son, son, son Never won, won, won What have I done, done, done? I'm a son, son, son I'm a son of the house no more

I hate it at the plantation party The people suck and they don't got any booze Why do the beards got to act so stuffy? I'm flying low and I got something to lose No country twink could ever make me happy I'm consecrated in the big city life I know myself but not when I'm with family Stockholm syndrome and I'm holding a knife How can you love me? Can you teach me? Up in the great wight north Can you teach me? I never thought that I could fight on Sundays Beaten down, there's plenty more I can take The hardest winter is a lonely Monday I read a woman drowned out on the lake How can you love me? Can you teach me? Up in the great wight north Can you teach me? How can you love me? Is it too late for you to teach me? Up in the great wight north Can you teach me? 'Cause I never learn, learn, learn I'm ready to burn, burn, burn 'Cause I never learn, learn, learn I'm ready to burn, burn, burn 'Cause I never learn, learn, learn I'm ready to burn, burn, burn A fragment for my friend If your soul left this Earth I would follow and find you Silent, my starship suspended in night

Honey Butter 03:53
I forged a ring from a dollar bill I'm token-sucking on turnstiles A tithing man, well he don't need this money train as much as I It's leavin' out of Bushwick For Pennsyltucky rollin' hills You make home feel like western Carolina, lovely and still And I need my fill You're so sweet and good for me Girl my honey butter Thank God the father indeed I didn't marry my mother Steak and red beans on arrival Colombian redemption sworn Maybe there are more important things than finding that unicorn Smoke and reposado on the patio I'll have my cake and eat it too 'Cause I can play rock 'n roll and still live a quiet life here with you Can both be true? You're so sweet and good for me Girl my honey butter Thank God the father indeed I didn't marry my mother Well you're the kind of freak That don't shriek when the bees are buzzing by You offer rye or wheat I'm complete when you cut me like a knife I'm finally playing the hand I've been dealt Not tryna catch the river flow Spread my fingers wide and let it all go You're so sweet and good for me Girl my honey butter Thank God the father indeed I didn't marry my mother Well you're the kind of freak That don't shriek when the bees are buzzing by You offer rye or wheat I'm complete when you cut me like a knife

You're twerking in line Jonesin' for some aranchini at Gov Ball 'Cause beautiful things They don't ask for no attention at all La mia ragazza che amo 'Cause youth is wasted on the young On the young On the young Youth is wasted on the young On the young We've finally begun They say "everything happens for a holy purpose" Fuck outta here Well these are the same Bible-thumpers That never shut up or listen clear They're too scared to be sincere 'Cause youth is wasted on the young On the young On the young Youth is wasted on the young On the young We've finally begun When we going out We'll paint the whole town We'll paint the whole town Girl you got that new vibe, there ain't no doubt They keep turning round They keep turning round 'Cause you got that new vibe now When we going out We'll paint the whole town We'll paint the whole town Girl you got that new vibe, there ain't no doubt They keep turning round They keep turning round 'Cause you got that new vibe now Youth is wasted on the young On the young We've finally begun

about

With his 3rd record, Slither, DiLisio pens an ode to late-70s disco and funk. Loosely inspired by city streets, subway tracks, sundresses, and sticky summer nights, it's a downright religious experience.
