Ok… first things first, I’ll eat your brains…
I draw the lines out
Hide the layers lines out
Whoa, just another lonely night
Are you willing to sacrifice you life?
.
Truss it Span it
Arch-i-just stop it
Everybody knows (Ima a muther-architect-er)
Ima gonna need to see t-squares at the concert
Ima gonna need to see t-squares at the concert
Profit Profit, Achi-it don’t got it
Everybody know Ima mutha-architect-er
Ima gonna need to see t-squares at the concert
Ima gonna need to see t-squares at the concert

Make a livin drawin or put your dead hands down huh?
Less talk more detailing right now huh?
And my eyes more red than the devil is
And ima bout to take it to another level bhatch
There you go again aint nobody as cold as this
Do the crap and the specs tripled up and with no assist
But my only focus is a coffee and some bogus sh-t
Argue with my older boss acting like I owe him sh-t
I heard the people sayin that they’re loving that Thomas Mayne
Bought the sustain-a-ble even tho it always gave me pain
I don’t have the money so, yeh, I have to act sane
Architects in China now yeh, but you hold you accent
They came up to me and said the number 2
If you wanna make it number one yeah your number 2 now
Moderns in that Malibu yeh, call it Malibooya
God Nuetra how I hit em with the new style now
Know that mutha-archi well, what ya gon do now?
Whatever ever I wanna do, gosh Rem is cool now
Nah, he aint old now, uhh, its all new now
Think yo mutha-really Architecture need to cool down
Cause you will never top this
So modern architects advice is to get on top of this
Ima living in the future so present that it’s in my past
The present is the present and the past can kiss my ass, yo

Truss it Span it
Arch-i-just stop it
Everybody knows (Ima a muther-architect-er)

Sasquatch, Godzilla,King Kong
Lochness, Goblins, Ghoul, Le Cobusier with no conscience
Question what do all these things have in common?
Everybody knows they’re a mutha-Architect-er
.
Corbu, stop ya, stop your silly nonsense
None of you Archis know where the hierarchy is
None of you Archis have seen the carnage I’ve seen
I still hear Mies screaming in my dream (yo)
Modern Modern in a black convertible
They killed the block and murder avenues (yo)
Rape and pillage a village, grid and order in (yo)
Everybody wanna know what my Achilles heel is
ORDER ORDER I don’t get enough of it
Yea, uhh
.
Truss it Truss it
Arch-i-just stop it
Everybody knows (Ima a muther-architect-er)
Ima gonna need to see t-squares at the concert
Ima gonna need to see t-squares at the concert
Profit Profit, Achi-it don’t got it
Everybody know Ima mutha-architect-er

Ok first things first I’ll eat your brains
Then Ima start rocking square grids and thangs
Cause that’s what a mutha-Architect-er do
Rossi’s from Milan yo, that’s what a monster do
Monster Guadi tile forms, that’s what a monster do
Young money B.I.G. and the monster crew (yo)
And I’m all up in the bank with the funny face
And if Frank Llyod’s fake I ain’t noticed cause my money aint
So let me get this straight yo, Herzog’s the rookie ay?
But his Pritzers and his bill-rates ten times your pay
50K for the sketches and no buildings out yo
Yeah his money’s so tall that my barbies gotta climb it
Working in a middle eastern climate climate
Find his work in magizines while you all whine it
While all the seals on the sheets he don’t sign it
How these Archis so one track minded
But really really I don’t give an A.I.A. kay?
Just killed another Friday
And I’ll say the drafting’s OK
The renderings are child’s play
.
Now look at what you just saw, this is what you live for
Aaaaah, Ima mutha-Archi-tect-er!
.
.
I draw the lines-lines
And I’ll, I’ll let Cad decide-cide
I-I wouldn’t last these hours
So I-I am heading home
.
My apologies to Kanye…. (Based on Kanye’s “Monster” – Ima sure you can google that to get the feel of it. Ima also sure that it’s not going to be approriate for work)
Peace out
J
