Dj Varvais' early 2013 mixtape
Narrated by: MixMastrKno1

-#1
We hit this back beat hard, with Varvais hard work,
the Scoliosis in my spine is now perfect, unearth this buried relic to the surface
I hate to serve it up without an ounce of his permission, so bounce with me (bounce with me)
Inspiration wouldn't listen,
the fission couldn't split 'em as I'm spittin atoms from my lips so quickly,
dangerously changin the genetic makeup of the empty space
in between our ears, into somethin useful....and special
Peacefully refuse to do those things that we don't want to
infused 'em in confusing english language
STUPID-
it's rules and regulations keep us guessing at their meanings...on purpose- to what end?
and who did we offend to deserve this beating,
and utter disrespect
from my birth up to my death bed?
now it's time to change the subject with a fresh perspective.

-#2
Breathe.....oh Breathe....
Go ahead and take your next breath, it's a symbol of your next step
the rest of the time
we can worry 'bout the crossing over lines we were coloring outside of
with your favorite color crayons at hand on your side arm
we could melt 'em down and hold a seance
mold em into candles
meditate upon it in your prayers 'til they're answered
frozen there like amber
gamble every time we throwin' words in conversation, just sayin
hope the situation doesn't end up any worse
than originally said it was supposed to be
hate to be corrected on the trivial of subjects,
subjegated in a raid of verbally confusing phrases
memorized verbatum, in my own subconscious,
locked away until, I choose to face em,
on that rainy day, we'll flush away the pain, and
keep the air clean, charging it with positivity,
so breathe, and enjoy the scenery

-#3
Something washes over me,
I feel so fresh and so clean, like a newborn baby
as if I was just born yesterday,
refreshing, crisp sounds that resonate correctly
apparently appropriate enough to- propel my inspiration by itself
Dj Varvais been away on the shelf too long,
gone from cabbage into kraut,
mushroom to kombucha,
to the tipping point of turning alcohol,
now it's time to open up the bottle- and to share it with us all,
intoxicate with mental stimulation,
you waited so long, just to share your creations
just as each breath is gone with the wind,
like the Oscar goes to-nobody important now
heros growing more impotent every passing moment,
the end of this minute, would have lost so many,
I'd be a full blown cynic
who needs to flip it back the opposite- direction in the positive
hit you with a pause in it
there ain't no stoppin it- now seen it for yourself
you're never gunna wash the sight- from your eyes or mind
you don't- not even with some soap.

-#4
Tell me what you need with a hook to this song-
tell me why you wanna sing it on repeat until it's old-
tell me again, 'til the magic's all gone,
tell me why you wanna kill the shock and aawe?

why you wanna kill the shock and aawe to this beat,
and defeat the purpose,
submit the artist
lock em in a box, til their heart ain't in it
never knew they started cuz they only saw the finish-
line as they crossed it
create themselves- an effective definition of success
succession of events, that led them to this moment
up to this instance, and could dissappear at any instant.

-#5
I fell down once...
...and I bumped my head,
and I thought I'd learned my lesson 'til I did it again
yes, Of course it was an accidet, or was it?
subconsciously attackin from my inner voices' cousin,
in other words my inner self has hit the 'ON' switch on the autopilot
broken off the knob- and decided
to make me take- control of my actions, and choices
we all make mistakes on occasion, and that's ok
part of bein human- apparently is failing- then learnin
I'm sailin' through the universe
observin as we go, and askin all those questions, I'd ever want to know,
confession, obsessin
it takes one to know one,
it takes one to grow on,
so which of these is true, didn't think I'd have to choose,
didn't think I'd have to move
didn't realize I didn't have to leave my living room
every single atom, has it's own position and function
every single moment is important than the one that come before it
enjoy it, livin in the now for
every single person is different, or is it?

-#6
Oh I, sit and wait and listen
try to meditate- on the inner space- inbetween our ears
it only takes a minute of your patience
to try to craft your art by makin inspiration work for ya
doesn't always come when you want it to tho,
doesn't always pick the greatest time to try and get a hold of you
callin in the middle of the night, it's an issue sometimes
with the wife and kid- but
family comes first that's just the way it is
THIS JUST IN, and that's just it
I'm too busy makin sandwitches in Ashland,
instead of harvestin my craft, for the simple love of makin music,
For the love of God people
really screwed this system up bad, we don't really wanna use it
back to the point I was makin,
statements- so close to the heart,
they had to take their time to submit it to their consciousness....

Shine on, Bright and shining Star Shine on SHINE ON.....shine on.

We could take this Art thing,
as far as I could see,
as far as the eye can see,
to the edge of my reality, Beyond me
if the product is astonishing,
it should rise like cream through the Industry, with honesty
honestly, hinder creativity with promises,
promising....offerings
shiny things sparkling
but a shooting star can achieve all of these,
simply by seeing things
as they really are.

-#7
OH NO! I guess I got too comfortable,
this ship is goin down and the captain's gunna drown
his only dying wish is to- is to see his wife and kids
and to give 'em both a kiss...
...and to give 'em both this-
A Legacy of Legendary music
I crafted with a Grand imagination, and my bare hands
and I'm motivated past the point of no return
ain't no turnin back once I heard, what I'm capable of doin'
so Isaac(son), Natasha(wife), Travis(brother)
this legacy is yours to-
do what you will with my tracks 'n'
if you could make a mint with a remix, Do it,
it isn't complicated cuz it music..

the rhythm's in your blood as the heart drum pumps it,
coursing through your veins as the beat keeps bumpin'

-#8
Cut quick hard, with that Physical Challenge
Dare....Double Dare
I'll see you on the battle grounds in armor,
don't you dare say that you don't know,
cuz the other team'll kick you harder when your down
the other Gladiators wearin Nerf underneath their Hypercolor shirts
with their brightly colored pit stains
covered in a reference so outdated,
that my facebook status changed from 'hip' to'Geriatric' in a single day.

-#9
Sometimes you gotta break it down- to the core
just to get to the center of- what makes us tick
smaller and smaller til our mind dissolves
in the matter at hand (so to speak)
Mind Over Matter,
but that's only cuz the Matter here is weak
what's the matter?
Rhetorical question,
I don't wanna hear it I can feel it in my Spirit
I don't wanna share my feelings here
it isn't out of fear,
it's all because I know the people just don't wanna hear it
a story for another time perhaps
the break down that 'Has to' happe
shouldn't be inside the publics' eye
that's My Own Private Life
we could break it down a second time with science,
a chemistry set and infinite patience,
malnutricious blood, and a puzzle to solve
never needed braces there before, but there's somethin there to fix
I'm not a schizophrenic but it feels like it sometimes,
my own restless mind, it wrestles me
it's infused with all these memories,
that'r all mine to cherish, good or bad
and that's all we ever really have
all I ever really had that lasted, was laughter
then disaster happened
a Flash, a Snapshot, then Captured
lasted forever
stuck there- in the Ether
as my body fades and the image stays.

-#10
Hey, why not feel good if you can
it's a proven fact, with initiative
you could take a picture, it'll last longer
and is worth a thousand words or more
we could probably make a better song
that'll have a positive effect upon your nervous system
layin it to rest
first time since your birth, I meant your Conception,
better get ta steppin
the Clock is always runnin out of contraception
and time is not your friend, it hasn't got your back
need to heed this warning sign,
Storm's coming and is in your line of sight
and it looks Almighty
Time reigns supreme when it comes to waiting

TIME TIME TIME
Space ... Continues ... Waits for Noone ...
TIME TIME TIME
Bomb ... Gone ... keeps running on and on ...
polyrhythm polyrhythm polyrhythm polyrhythm.

Time, all the time I got behind me Gone
if I really sit and think about the time that I've lost
it'll drive me to the edge of the cliff and then off it
instead I think about the future- ahead of me
if time is an illusion, why can't we see it
where the hell's the logic in this f'n way of thinking?

-#11
Oh wait, you didn't get your lift on,
long before you sat your silly ass down to listen
how you ever gunna comprehend the hidden messages
now you gotta go all the way back to the beginning,
rewind to understand the timing
just to comprehend this comprehensive mix
thick with metaphores
condensed with- complex and- rich textures
it's twists and it's turns in it's pretty packaging
presented with it's poignant paraphrasing
short and to the point of no return
where it left us all for dead but- still it- coulda been worse
but that which doesnot kill us makes us stronger
I heard that phrase before but
already been so close it doesn't matter
...
(I know it says "so close that I can taste it"...but I kinda don't like that line...
wanted to re do this one again anyways)

Dj Varvais Mixtape....
...with MixMastrKno1

-you're bein brainwashed, I know because I'm doin it to you right now-
-I see you shake your ass and your head sits still, and your thoughts move past you faster-
-am I comin in divisible enough for each to get a tiny piece of this feast?-
-it's all scientific, astrologically gifted, with my clever synonyms and wordplay,
but not upon my first day
wasn't thirsty enough to want a drink then
but now it's on...
hear it 3 times and it's yours for life
psychologically we just planted a seed inside your mind
and the time'll go by that seed'll inspire a spark
then a light, then a firing squad- of enlightenment
hits you like a ton of bricks
as I'm rappin this
right now is happening
yeah that just happened-
ya feel it? you should cuz
inspiration comes and goes,as it sees fit
cuz- it is in control, we are not controlling it
it's given us a pallette,
to paint upon our talent for display
it takes a lot of work for me to wanna put it down on tape
long before the words, ever even hit the page
even long before my mind is made up
I used to tap into it regularly playin bass
not to get too far off base,
or distract from the path that this song needs to take
give thanks..
word of mouth
is no gimick
give praise....and don't forget us.
