    Deca's music is so much more than rap. So much more than just hip-hop or even art. It's magic, immersive, & mind-bending.

      Blair Geiger If you know Donald Glover he explains how he strives to create music like that so imo it’s not weird to say that at all I totally get whatchu mean.
      In fact one of the most well respected hip hop producers named Madlib actually means “Mind altering demented lessons in beats” look it up.

    Your music has saved my life so many times Deca, I honestly don't know where I would be without you. Your music has gotten me through heartbreak, addiction, homelessness, depression, and everything inbetween. You inspire me in every sense, from when im out catching tags to when I was in jail having your songs played over the phone. I can never thank you enough, and I hope I can meet you one day, we'd have so much to talk about. Thank you Deca.

    strange overtones
    god bless the overgrown child that could hold his own
    throwin' stones at a sky full of drones
    he clipped a wing that fell to earth & hit close to home
    .. & found insects nesting in his mobile phone
    its wishful thinking that a song could heal a sick rose
    I sit and pull thistles out my thick skull
    live slow, keep it simple ..
    sweep the fallen leaves out the temple
    when its 10 below freezing & the cold wind blows..
    some nights we over-indulge ..
    kick back, shoot the shallow shit
    chew the pig fat, act on impulse
    met my love after Elohim sowed my ribs closed
    the devils sellin' dreams at the disco ..
    took her hand and stumbled towards the exit
    felt the pressure build
    precious virtuosic flesh clear in that its dressed to kill
    ill sit alone and watch the rain fallin' from your eyes
    when they crack the seventh seal below the solemn summer sky
    birds in the cage, rats in the belly
    snakes in the grass, bats in the belfry
    *I been thinking*
    about the ocean that professed love to Ishmael
    I slipped into the serpent like intestines of a sick whale
    *that sounds dangerous*
    beneath the sleep-like veil
    I read the stomach lining of the beast like Braille
    & walk the street feelin like my feet might fail
    *that's how I learned, you can do it to*
    I'm learnin' not to hold my tongue ..
    but how to hold a tune
    with a drop of golden sun
    leakin' from an open wound
    below the full moon
    we're posin' in the womb
    stickin' acupuncture pins in your thick skull balloon
    I make my way through the forest to chart progress
    following the queen, running with sharp objects
    stop, catch your breath, set the hatchet down
    dig a hold and bury it ..
    God bless the poet proletariat
    the lowly
    lost laureate down on both knees
    choking back tears while the world moves at full speed
    you give em time, they'll pilfer the village blind
    whats ill is they're buildin' shrines to realists & philistines
    and hide shame with pride, I'm guilty of the same sin
    born with the same snake attached at the brain stem
    strange beautiful things losin' their wings
    from heaven's promised heights to the crucible flames, listen
    birds in the cage, rats in the belly
    snakes in the grass, bats in the belfry
    *I been thinking*
    about the ocean that professed love to Ishmael
    I slipped into the serpent like intestines of a sick whale
    *that sounds dangerous*
    beneath the sleep-like veil
    I read the stomach lining of the beast like Braille
    & walk the street feelin like my feet might fail
    *that's how I learned, you can do it to*
