lyrics

Beefy:
Welcome to the wild Northwest
Kill a sasquatch and a cougar in the mountains make a bulletproof vest
And saying, "Howdy, how you doing?" Yeah you see me around
On every single wanted poster plastered all over town

Misunderstandings they can happen with the best of intentions
Don't wanna rob you, I need a couple bucks for my best friends
They got expensive habits⁠—Don't you look at my face!
If any of you move a muscle, I'll blow up this whole bank!

I hit the trail and the nights were cold, days were longer by the second
Right when I knew where I was going, they went and changed directions
Swear my heat can take a half a dozen with me
Cause if I feel I've been beaten I don't want nobody else to see me

I'm a monolith, a scourge on the scene
Committing acts of violence the microphone's never seen
And likely never will again. The rough and rowdy gentleman
A king out in this desert while you city slickers play pretend


They walked with the sun
Through the lawless frontier
And slept with the moon
Both honest men and criminals
The first man they look for
And the last they want to meet

They walked with the sun
Through the lawless frontier
And slept with the moon
Both honest men and criminals
Their footprints covered the land
I'm that man


Klop:
Haven't seen the city in a few long months
I like it gritty, but it's pretty hard to move on once
You got a family to feed and a brand to achieve
It's a sham, we do the manly duty, can we succeed?

Sometimes at night I catch a glimpse on the horizon behind me
An emerald reflection in the sky trying to find me
A lot of yellow bricks between this town and home
A lot of miles missed, since I found shalom

I used to roam those roads, nowadays don't go so close
Kicking it in solo mode, thinking how I won't go pro
Only you don't know though, lingering ghosts don't last
And it's hard to turn around when headwinds blow so fast

Bartenders, they be my closest confidants
I think they're intrigued by my corrosive nonchalance
The verbosest entourage, it's a solo affair
But sometimes I get to thinking they don't know that I'm there


They walked with the sun
Through the lawless frontier
And slept with the moon
Both honest men and criminals
The first man they look for
And the last they want to meet

They walked with the sun
Through the lawless frontier
And slept with the moon
Both honest men and criminals
Their footprints covered the land
I'm that man


Rook:
Silver bullets in the chamber, unsubtle mindchanger
Danger is a wayward stranger
Nerdlinger, gunslinger, two fingers and a thumb cocked
Wielding words like weapons, bars that bang away like buckshot

Roughshod, saddle straddling the mustang
Pistoleer of poetry I'm pretty when I cuss, dang
No thang, just draw, point, fire
Writing symphonies in blood of infamy, gun for hire

Put MCs in the Boot Hill dirt to make my name
That's the game at high noon, but now there's gunmetal in my mane
Silverback killer riding high on that steel horse
Tip too many and I'm ready, see you and your soul divorced

Father Time adding weight to my sentence
Try to exorcise the devil in delivery, but no repentance
Desperado bravado can't cut the cost incurred
Epistolero; live by the word, die by the word

They walked with the sun
Through the lawless frontier
And slept with the moon
Both honest men and criminals
The first man they look for
And the last they want to meet

They walked with the sun
Through the lawless frontier
And slept with the moon
Both honest men and criminals
Their footprints covered the land
I'm that man
