    Traffic Jam ft. DJB

    Italic= Macabre
    Normal= DJB

    Morning enters the room, fresh dew and the aroma of her perfume
    subdue my senses mention an undescribable presence, love blooms
    billowing smells loom as she turns and exits our perfect home
    anxiously waiting at the phone for her call to relieve my dome

    Rust crusted car billows smoke into the ozone layer,
    The cars are bumper to bumper- traffic against my prayers
    Country music intoxicates me..causes me to blast my horn at a whim
    Realization of the worries that I've instilled in him,
    Rose colored sun contrasts the toxic city,
    As the waves of industrial heat seep through and hit me.
    Late for an empty engagement, just a hug and kiss greeting
    But I can sense my husband's dreads and fears meeting.


    comb and brush and still the phone has not rang and I feel alone
    I know the glow she disposed purposed protecting how she drove
    still groves of worry flourished inside, my patience turned to anguish
    worried the devil was the plaintiff and god couldn’t calm n relinquish
    to think this was our last meeting, my memory can’t picture her leaving
    left day dreaming, nightmares of a dramatic tragedy, pointless travesty
    horrid thoughts badger me, senselessly wondering, how could this be
    panicked filled worry engulfs me, consumes my entire worthless body

    Still Nothing, Godammit.

    Blood-soaked shrapnel and windshield wipers scatter the ground ahead..
    Tears swim across my cheeks...two kids and a mom dead.
    Steering wheel can't quite fit in my hands..trembling worry,
    As the experience scarred paramedics bustle and scurry.
    Sun set..toxic clouds float above sky scrapers,
    Existance as machinery, mother earth rapers.
    Driving in the suburbs, perfect harmony of mundane grind,
    As I categorize all the problems in my life I can find.
    I know he loves me, heart on his sleeve..tears in his eyes,
    As he sees the news..thinks of my forgotten call, and cries.
    Knowing i'm gone..assuming the worst..his bleeding heart bursts..
    Except i've deceived his fragile mind, and now I feel the worst
    Dingy truckstop ahead..illuminated pay phone of glory
    As I dial his number..and tell him i'm sorry.


    a godly desire to leave earths empire, rises higher on my list of laundry
    prescribing dark thought out loud outlet my pain and aspire spiraling
    boggling my senses of conception of the depths of what the events been
    seepin’ reality in trough pours of weakness I realize she is my weakness
    for without her I’ve fallen to pieces, and commence in becoming fasciatus
    the phone rings, I hear her voice and I can breath, relax as the binding ceases.

    perfect setup climax meaning delivery and feeding into each others scheme....i think this was the embodyment of topical rhythm
    to love something,is to die for it ,if you do, your a martyr , but these days music is morbid, false carters ..prohet's for prophet no lie, look how our last martyr was crucified. to put it in it symplicity, you aint true...you wouldnt sacrifice a few dollars for authenticity..

    well mac, this was certainly an interesting read, i liked the way you's organised the collab, it fit alot better likethis than it might have with just 1 straight verse each, ........you both built up the picture nicely and kept a consistancy to it, tho mac i thought your style was better out of the two, but like i said,,, nice collab

    Excellent execution of talent here. Both of you complimented the others style , and these are the types of collabs RB should be getting more recognize to. Djb Your verses held the story up, Macabre put the imagery you missed and carried the story along. Both did a great job. hit up my truth.. piece...im always the victim of sleepers.

    dope imagery...as seen in here:

    Rust crusted car billows smoke into the ozone layer,
    The cars are bumper to bumper- traffic against my prayers
    Country music intoxicates me..causes me to blast my horn at a whim
    Realization of the worries that I've instilled in him,
    Rose colored sun contrasts the toxic city,
    As the waves of industrial heat seep through and hit me.
    Late for an empty engagement, just a hug and kiss greeting
    But I can sense my husband's dreads and fears meeting.

    dope flow...

    comb and brush and still the phone has not rang and I feel alone
    I know the glow she disposed purposed protecting how she drove

    ^hot multies.

    dope imagery and vocab as seen here:

    a godly desire to leave earths empire, rises higher on my list of laundry
    prescribing dark thought out loud outlet my pain and aspire spiraling
    boggling my senses of conception of the depths of what the events been
    seepin’ reality in trough pours of weakness I realize she is my weakness
    for without her I’ve fallen to pieces, and commence in becoming fasciatus
    the phone rings, I hear her voice and I can breath, relax as the binding ceases.

    props for this piece to the both of you. the whole scene was painted in more than just a story. it took awhile, but it was worth. flawless.

    boggling my senses of conception of the depths of what the events been
    seepin’ reality in trough pours of weakness I realize she is my weakness

    the phone rings, I hear her voice and I can breath, relax as the binding ceases.
