Mac Lethal - Backward Lyrics
[Talking:]
My name is David McCleary Sheldon
I was born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri
Started right here I don't want it to be over
[Repeats in background]
You got a beautiful face
Sittin' on the roof of the factory high
There's a blood orange moon in the strawberry sky
To come home soon is the wishing wonder
But I'm calm by the boom of the distant thunder
Relax, there's no television static
Just the howl's and never ending traffic
And I was born a few generations late
Illustrate my face feel this spunky
Yeah I'm strange as hell but I'm real as fuck
So follow my smell to the hollows and dells
And I'll show you the snake's as they swallow their tails
They're right there running the assembly lines
Where the coal gets shoveled by the carton smokers
They're parasites burrowed in the listeners minds
Nevermind, scratch that, let me start this over
Man, how far does this pigeon hole travel
Find the answer in the indigo shadows
Though you can unless you know the chant
Or the eight away labor line soldier ant
I held my mom as she died in my hands
Had to cancel the tour
I hope you guys understand
That the life of a man's gonna crack
In the eyes of his fans
When he fails to supply the demand
Now if only I could catch my breath
I got spurs on my boots, I can etch my steps
So I can find my way home when I stretch my depth
But I gotta get a disclaimer off my chest
When I talk about social ills
Or the alcohol fix or the potent pills
Understand that I wrote it with a soul to fill
I had to sketch myself a new home to build
I was baited and caught by decoys and free will
Wounded inside I rejoiced in cheap thrills
My life was destroyed and rebuild
Listen to the dangerous sweet noise and keep still
Introverted borderline sick disconcerted
Kinda slick when it's quickly worded
Every tick every twist every drips assertive
With the verse every pixel is picture perfect
When at first! that's how I stitched the ferber
With the scraps and the bits of the century murder
And then the intenceses I'm ripple with the type of terrificness
The benefits of rhyming certificates kids are intimate
I'm spitting so the minute on the rhythm and I'm gettin so inventive
That there's really no equivalent
I'll rip a show, a pigeon hole, and invalent
Until they gotta tippy toe to get a dose of lithium
So tell the other kids to smell the blood I spit
Just to let them know what they hell they fuckin' with
I've felt pain and I'll feel it again
Take 'em back to the end start again
I got mental cravings for sinfull tastings
And gentle phrasings with pencil shavings
I felt pain and I'll feel it again
Take 'em back to the end start again
Away
Start it right here I don't want it to be over
Say it right here I don't want it to be over
[Repeats in background]
You got, you got a, you got a beautiful face
[Repeats until song finishes]

One of my favorite songs, Mac is forever a legend
wikipedia broght me here
+That1Guy it has been a year man 😂
+That1Guy hahahahaha it's still a good beat tho !
hhhhhnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggggggggg
@Mr. GreenLeaf hahahahahah not mad but writes a fucking message that long fucking LOL. EVERYTHING I said I took from your wack lyrics. So what you're saying is, everything you say you are is a lie, you just say shit to try to look cool 😂😂😂😂 how pathetic hahaha you literally said in your tracks "i couldnt finish school it was too much pressure" 😂😂 you're a lying little faggot. You're like dont say shit about someone you dont know cuz you're wrong then you proceed to do the same shit ahahahaha hypocritical little shit stain on the undies of society. You dont have a job, quit lying. Go back to suckling from mummys teets you fat little, lonely cunt, i dont have a channel either, i actually have a job and a life i only use youtube to listen to music, thats how i know you're a lonely fat loser cause you base peoples lives off the content of their internet profiles. 😂 can i just remind you that you messaged me first trying to be a smart cunt? Stuff some food in your face hole and calm down fatty.
p.s I threw you a few views so now you have like 7 views on your music. congrats little buddy.
@Razorblade Tourist who is eric cartmans father is it this guy or this guy or the whole dallas football team? 😂
+Mr. GreenLeaf TL;DR
@Mr. GreenLeaf you can title this piece "mad faggot writes book, thinks people care".
to underrated to be from KC
This is probably one of the only Mac Lethal songs I enjoi other than "Kind of Like a Big Wheel" and that's only featuring him anyway.
personally, I typically dislike rap because there is no significant meaning behind it. This however, is wonderful! I hope we hear some more music like this in the future.
I can give you a list of rappers that are all a lot like this.
I can say the same thing about any other type of music. Generalization is a bad thing...
Generalization is a natural and healthy thing for people to do. :) We see something form a pattern, x x y x x y x x what comes next? it's a way for us to intelligently think. I'm not saying all generalization is always a good thing, it is imperative to remain open minded when you are generalizing because sometimes the patterns will change. Ether way it's a double edged blade and depends on how you wield it.
@Nyu Atreides generalization is how we get discrimination, stereotypes, and racism
lol that's also a good way to generalize on your behalf. Discrimination, stereotypes, and racism stem from many different things. Some examples, Religion, Media, Television, sometimes even family or friends. The act of generalization is not what causes these negative attributes in humans it's a much more deep rooted issue than that.
really nice man, keep up the good work!
love from Argentina
I thought Mac Lethal pretty good before, but this is a new level of skill from him. I really like it.
This is actually pretty old man from 2007 I think.
@R0$H yup...this is what turned me onto mac..that new like roller coaster is garbage
Pretty it was one of the 1st songs by him I heard too. Still one of my favorites.
@R0$H Oh, really? He just recently started popping up on my Pandora, and this wasn't anywhere near the first song I heard, but it's prolly the best. I failed to see when the song was made, but what I said still is true. This song specifically is better then the stuff from him I've heard before it. This and Lithium Lips are my 2 favorite songs of his. Maybe the alphabet song, but it's a lil gimmicky, I think.
Goddamn!!!!
So hard!
Thanks for making this on youtube cuz I've been wanting to listen to it for a minute. Love this song
No, it's not!
foreal, what a douche.
Dude, you're fucking insane calling people extremist, when the fact of the matter is you are trying to make a point on youtube comments.. GO HOME. This is especially funny because your name is EGO MANIAC
Ian O'Harris have you ever heard of a reply?
dude he has all of his shit on itunes..
Some of the best descriptive writing.
am not crying shut up
All you kids are pretty silly.
buy the album, rip it to your computer and move it to your phone? that's what I did.
man e-mail me at [email protected] when u got cd's I can buy I want one of each u r outcold my nigga
THIS SONG NEEDS TO BE MADE SO I CAN LISTEN TO IT ON MY PHONE!!!, grrr i wanted to listen to it soooo badly today and could only find live versions....
Damn right...
Is it serious?
holy shit, what a beast
Just the howls of neverending traffic*
Thank you for showing true douche colors over a playful comment.
Your concept of silly is fucked up. Thank you for trying to downplay me as another 'kid' i appreciate the fact that you would rather not accept my comment as a reality because it is too cold and harsh albeit absolutely true. Good luck accepting your 'silly' life as something more than a fictitious waste of time.
art work
you need more hits dude this one is real shit
but this IS what i listen to nowadays
chillin' buzzed with this on blast = good time.
Love Mac lethal
All you kids are pretty silly.
macs lyrics are lethal sick
Oh, he is from Kansas City? That makes sense. All the best rappers are.
ABout time to tour now Mac Lethal, Time is ticking
Mac you killin it
He is very talented! Thank you for posting for others!
Illustrate my face feel this spunky
Yeah I'm strange as hell but I'm real as fuck
So follow my smell to the hollows and dells
And I'll show you the snake's as they swallow their tails
They're right there running the assembly lines
Where the coal gets shoveled by the carton smokers
They're parasites burrowed in the listeners minds
Nevermind, scratch that, let me start this over
Man, how far does this pigeon hole travel
Find the answer in the indigo shadows
i know, i have ears :P
Base your theories on our failing race of peoples, blind to the truth forever, on my one comment. Go ahead, you extremist piece of shit. I have no quarrel with anyone, nor do i intend to steal attention. Just trying to get a few laughs out of the community because this is what humans enjoy. Seeing other people get put down with stupidity and little to no common sense. hence PurplePoptarts first response "LMFAO". Mission accomplished, now enjoy the awesome music!
lol over reaction....sign of a decaying society? most likely, keep hanging on to what does not fucking matter.
LMFAO no actually i was just correcting him. Just wanted people to know both those artists are from my home state, Missouri. and me a pathetic waste of life? You're on the internet right now, trying to cause an argument, probably because you don't get enough attention at home.
wow stealing comments fag. You are the perfect example of human deevolution. A pathetic thief of peoples words looking for a few petty thumbs up to make yourself feel better. Go steal some squirt guns from walmart you waste of life.
that looks exactly like my comment :O!
prob cuz theres nothing else to do but rap all day
Tech N9ne: Kansas City, Missouri
Mac Lethal: Kansas City, Missouri
what can i say, place makes some fast things
kansas city missouri...
good job repeating the lyrics....
50,001 viewers well looks like one other person besides me has listen to this song!
Sittin on the roof of the factory high,
Theres a blood orange moon in the strawberry sky
To come home soon is the wish and wonder,
But im calmed by the boom of the distant thunder
Relax theres no televison static ,
Just the howels and neverending traffic
This world is plastic and Fake
And I was born a few generations late.
This is one of the sickest tracks I have ever heard. Mac killed this one. This has content, flow, delivery, metaphors and is poetic. I think the mix of solid bars and then the crushing flow near the end is definitely your style.
They are both from Missouri
"Yeah i'm strange as hell, but i'm real as fuck"
that why you hit play again
fucking amazing, wish the eargasm lasted longer though.
@xx7clintone I feel it's not just "young people". The whole system being adults and young its all just really messed up. Too high to deal with anymore yt bull shit but yeah. Mac lethal speaks real talk
@MrWombatsoup 11:11 i think
I hate to sound like one of those attention hungry ass clowns but if anyone has some free time I would really appreciate some feedback from people who know good music. Me and my buddy are working on a mixtape but its almost impossible to get constructive criticism in a hick town with no hip hop community. Check out the verse i dropped on my page or search "WordSmyths- Boondocks" if you have a second. Thanks for keeping real hip hop alive
much love and respect

@jamesmybutt1245 I'm Odd, Feel it in the Air, Raise the Dead, Sun Storm, Dying Young
@brainsabouttobust I know you didn't. The top comment said Kansas, I said no, Missouri, then you jumped in and tried arguing with me. We're on the same side.
@SickSourMusic Where did I say anything about Kansas? I'm talking about Kansas City Missouri.
thank you for posting this. it has significantly improved my life.
@NarrowMindedNick theres two Kansas city's not one mainly in a place. There's Kansas city Kansas and Kansas City Missouri. They both lay near the states boarders but they are two seperate places.
@jamesmybutt1245 i liked im odd and happy to be living(think thats the title) while they didn't have as much of a heavy beat the lyrics and tone are official.
@xx7clintone :) im young and i hope im not gonna be materilistac im gunna try change that brother there is hope
jkfhglkahlfkjhalskfd :D
@LavenderPants99
XV too.
@jamesmybutt1245 he doesn't do a ton of stuff like this, but listen to an entire album or two and he'll grow on you.
@jamesmybutt1245 Check out anything on Love Potion #5, specifically Unfinished Love Song Thing
I really hope you guys don't take this as trolling, but I heard this song on my pandora, and decided to investigate becuase mac sounded fucking awesome. He tore shti up in this song. The rest of his shit seems....well not like this. Maybe it's my personal taste, I don't know. Could anyone tell me some other shit he did like this, cuz sadly this is the only song of his I like so far, even though he's incredibly talented.
@LavenderPants99 They both from KC MO - Kansas City is mainly in MISSOURI
@brainsabouttobust Obviously but that's not Kansas.
@SickSourMusic not just missouri they're both from kc mo
@SickSourMusic OH SHIT
@LavenderPants99 Are you for real? They're both from Missouri.
@animatorguy2 yeah I totally agree, I just mean the majority of young people. There are young people such as you and I who see past all the consumer bullshit, just not enough of them.
@xx7clintone thats not entirely true, that was more like a generalization. im young, hate mainstream hiphop and materialistic individuals that follow such. young members of society are like how you described because they have shitty parents that dont no what the fuck they are doing with there kids and they don't understand the underlying concepts of conformation
i love mac lethal his cd is awesome and if u haent seen any of his battles check that shit out immediately cause hes nasty, but this may be one of the worstalbum covers ever made lol
@LowFlowEntertainment too bad mac isn't with rhymesayers anymore
@LowFlowEntertainment I feel ya...I try to, but am still learning every word! haha
@LavenderPants99 is bot ur ps3 and ur iphone synced with ur youtube acount?
why cant i play this on youtube for ps3 or iphone :|
@sansdeity420 they both are
Tech N9ne: Kansas
Mac Lethal: Kansas
what can i say, place makes some fast things
@mrDJstoon i doubt hed say something like that if it wasnt true.
@musichead327 u should try sadistik
@Jonald944 arguing about what real hip hop is...lol Pull your head out of your ass, Mac Lethal is real hip hop??
I'm going to see him in Portland, if the "playing at" thing is accurate. Would be an awesome show.
