Detroit Emcee, teamed with Seattle based Production tandem of Onry Ozzborn, (Darktime Sunshine) and Thomas Erak (The Fall of Troy). The first new material from Kovax in over a year, "Sights Set" explores vastly different sounds, feels, and levels of sophistication than previous works. Ozzborn provides a dreamy and colorful landscape with his signature brand of West Coast style beat production. Erak's mixing and production, coupled with his known the world over talents on the guitar, all over the track, really push the boundaries of progressive hip hop mixed with experimental rock. Kovax displays evolved hook writing and melody, as well as an expected, yet vastly polished "double time" rapping cadence on the majority of the two verses. The 1st single from a large batch of new written material from Kovax. The man clearly has SIGHTS. SET.
lyrics
HOOK
Before you talk..
(Y'all should walk)
Bout a thousand miles..
(In my shoes)
And tell me what you see
Bought some beats, I'm hangin on my dream
Sights are set, I'm takin all I need.
VERSE ONE
×Feelin like a newborn baby boy
Kickin my feet up and makin some noise
Came to destroy, raising my voice
Ain't got a choice, (when it came from Detroit)
×Hard in the paint through the pain and the joy
Casing your joint, so they get annoyed
Lames I avoid, oh no, they cannot join
All the babes get moist from the taste of my groin
×Case in point. Training Day, I am Jake Hoyt
Fuck all the others I'm ruffling feathers, my brother
I'm better I came for your coin
×They want me to die but I made it alive
Now they gonna hide from the state of my mind
Ain't many rhymes that are greater than mine
When I'm able and Highhhhh(IMA PRAY FOR YOU
GUY)
×You're scared of my glow. Hey asshole, staring em
Down and embarrassing foes
Ima lay low I'm preparing to go, on my solo like
Like Harrison Ford
×I seen your video you got a shiddy flow claiming
You're dope but you pay for your votes
I got thousands of views and now they wana fued
Shaking in boots because they are not close
×Wonderful vocals. So so bozos stuck being local
Ain't focal or mogul ain't none of em noble already
Told em to tally my total I'm top of the totem
×Oh my God I'm golden. Y'all losing now that I
Wrote it. Its ozzin out stupid hot hear the "oooohs and ahhhhsss" now watch an explosion.
HOOK
VERSE TWO
×I'm head strong, yes y'all, but even the best all
Need a good pep talk
Its anyone's guess that if you didn't call then I mighta been dead, DOG
×I BEEN LOST, still not impressed what the rest got
Fuck a desk job and a restuarant, ima press on,
The the next notch, you should just watch
×Might be the big one like red foxx
Facts are, Matt's Bars Rap Hard..
Bastard with a black heart. Fire away and now give it your best shot..
×Hot Shot, Nonstop, ima keep on climbing to the top of the Penobskot. Dont hit em w the rah rah blah blah, pot shot, x pac crotch chop, I'm not the one to be fuckin with
×Comin for blood again, underskin
Pumpin your fist up from what I can spit
I dug up a ditch, sunk the ship
Dumb son of a bitch, (now suck up on this)
×Typical bums, Get off my nuts
Chemicals pump and I dont give a fuck
The buzz, just begun, give it a month and you'll be kissin my butt
×Never gona get it, you a little fuckin idiot
Dont listen to opinions from any of your minions
I'm higher than heaven is firing the evidence
Ima get compeditive, now everybody listen up!
