Albums COMING SOON --> NoDotWon & The Vampire Dynasty - My World War Wages Within (Album Thread)

[FruitOfTheVale]

It's been a journey but it's almost here much love to everyone on here who supported the 1st project me and @ShaDynasty (The Vampire Dynasty) dropped 2 years back.

Featuring production from The Vampire Dynasty and TheSauceApostle and clocking in right at half an hour, it's a tight, loosely conceptual project that explores the idea that disillusionment and "checking out" isn't a luxury any survivor has in a society in decline/failed-state-to-be, even when all the signs seem to point toward a ship sinking into apocalypse.

Another way to put it is if its dawned on "us" that we're more or less all in the frying pan now being slow-boiled, the album's about the moment when most people would want to jump out the pan but realize they have to tough it out. There's definitely some political themes on it but o/a it's about having to find it within yourself in that situation to walk the thin line between delusion, escapism, etc. and staying sharp.

Out of appreciation for y'all support here's a brand new track off the project

This is gonna be an epic project. Feel like these are some of my best beats and NoDotWon lyricism is at a higher level than ever before

I'm gonna have to set an appointment with this one.

Someone has never heard your music before, what song are you playing for them?

Much love!

The lyrics:

Locked on if we ain’t locked in
Lockheed Martin, godspeed… MARK ‘em
That’s a tale old as dark skin
Just don’t forget that tale’s told by marksmen

breathing Songs of Ice and Fire by a change of name
Vis-à-vis Viet Congs, ISIS fighters, NATO states…
and I mean face-to-face…
Like Kim Jong going base for base
Nuking nikkas moony with the crater face
Better yet, Putin shootin’ them space eyes
Knockin’ down that grid you be using to waste time
A.I. race to primate mind-states
Internally infernal empires in dire straits
Fine China shakes, the booms fill them Boom Boom Rooms
with silence, they ain’t reach no alliance
And I wudn’t reached for no guidance
No say or no comment, yet I been ducking these comets
Like where them bunkers be hidin’?
They underground we under-siege, cause they dug into China
So what the fukk are we fighting?

Verse 2

They never let the cat out the bag, the answer was M.A.D.,
Fo’ they elected cannibals canceled the tangible plan
AND, dismantled the mantle of Man,
now the planet damned by a handful of Dans… Oh, man
It’s a long way down this, river…
Its winter… go ‘head, you pick a winner
Yo Prez eat chicken dinner, yo legs turn twigs or thinner
Ain’t no “finna”, not in this timeline we entered
And heaven forbid you a dissenter, misaligned
kissed goodbye, dismembered, ricocheted to kin members
You ain’t peep the big picture? Tsk, nikka?!
You’ll see the big agenda…

Verse 3

Hear no commie, see no commie, speak no commie
hard the only way my Peoples Party, you reading me, McCarthy?
evil thoughts… these ain’t the kind D’evils wrought
No keys and rocks yet Hoover rather seize my pot
I seen a lot to see the forest from the pines
Discordance in-store for us and all you ‘bout to do is “buy”
Like, "more, for us!" It’s 'nuff to wanna smack a nikka
Morpheus, ‘cept these agents real and now they
Courtin’ us, like full-court press, so lawyer-up
At war with us, even while them nukes warming up
Mortal enemies of the state, they never warred for us
Born in enmity at the gates, forever foreigners
