Cara Another fantastic track from the lyrical genius of Soul Khan, King Ugly perfectly captures the feelings of despair and determination when assessing the modern world and the power structures it upholds.

King Ugly 03:02
Verse 1: Sound man, turn me up in the monitors First things first, though, peace to anonymous King of the uglies here to beat the Adonises Like who crucified you and made you the god of us Slow down, Soul, now please, keep it positive We just want to give away a dream and a scholarship Please, what a pile of shit, no matter how you polish it Just to flip a fucking burger he needs a doctorate If he only has a bachelor’s He can intern while he works up to a spatula Actually, I’m exaggerating but ain’t it bad enough When you’re packing a mac just to get the cash for that Acura Out your Mind if you think you can fly away on Falcor There ain’t a place you can hide cause they will Outsource Anything you’re willing to buy unless your mission in life Ain’t just about yours Hook: I’m waiting for the one day When I can take the subway And never think of jumping down Across town is the gunplay A father where his son lay I want to leave this country now Verse 2: Pack it up, pack it in If we’re gonna ever last Separate your head and ass From the packaging What you here to find? The path or the pathogen? I'm the x factor that you neglected to factor in I could be the last man standing with a missing limb I promise I’mma keep fighting like Pacific Rim But a rapper dissing me, I ain’t dissing him I got problems like why my mama’s been getting thin You don’t read, so tweet and it weep While the world keeps turning like Jesus’ cheek And too bad if you're that Keebler that’s sleeping Inside of the next tree the beavers’ll eat Call Mr. Martin He can't stop grieving ‘Cause they picked a mad man Above a boy not breathing [Hook Repeats] All the good will in the world ain’t gonna pick me up Off the bathroom floor and save me
