about

This title track is an extension of the "Redo" featuring Forest version released on 2011's Killing Time.

lyrics

almost just isn't gonna cut it
hate it or love it gotta grab the rung above it
it ain't what we do it's how we do it
SINTHESIS you better get used to it
and the minute you do we're gonna flip it
kick it so slick don't blame you hard to grip it
just try to keep up we done did it
if you don't know now you know to get with it
it ain't a passion or a hobby it's a sickness
we terminal live til the finish
they call me doc for puttin on a clinic
head huntin each and every cynic
you never heard a duo with a product like we sellin
if phaust is tim burton then phingaz is danny elfman
spittin seeds straight to the melon
it ain't meningitis that got your brain swellin
i get around like magellan
yellin at the moon atmospheres a felon
no tellin what the future will hold
until we understand what the past had to teach
nothin you can get that ain't sold
and nothin gets stole without a reach
so what i'm here to preach is split second timing
i relate to chris sharma at rock bottom and climbing

what can i say
these games we play
almost only counts in
horseshoes and handgrenades
what can i say
these games we play
almost only counts in
horseshoes and handgrenades

i came to put this city on the map with this gritty indie rap
ain't lookin for no pity ridden dap
cast wasatch upon a national attack
not for cash but a pad on the road to crash
missionaries stole the title sheep herders
so i'm gatherin together an army of shepherds
we're gettin better every record and we know it
so we'll continue makin 'em and playin shows to show it
concept poets almost is basic
crush it so you know we catch anything we chasin
waitin on jason for the phingaz licks
from the genesis of product through the future freddy krueger flicks

what can i say
these games we play
almost only counts in
horseshoes and handgrenades
what can i say
these games we play
almost only counts in
horseshoes and handgrenades

come on out bug from up under the rock
show you a bigger box in which to stock crops not crumbs
show me thumbs to the sun if you wanna hear us talk
if not book your own headlining slot
mad props to the few remainin shops
holdin tough on their block graywhale train uprok
and you don't stop unless you want the foe to talk
about the fact their now on top and how you dropped off
go on turn your head and cough maybe time to get physical
cannons loaded no chance to miss the boat
not vanishin into the dark picked the game apart
shed some light on the true spirit of urban art

about

Sinthesis Salt Lake City, Utah

Phaust has been known primarily for his witty wordplay whereas Phingaz has made his mark on the production game. In their latest hiphop/bluesrock endeavor Horseshoes & Handgrenades, the duo set aside their niches for a live sounding, gritty crack at sharing responsibilites. Though 2 outcomes were forseen (pathetic/incredulous) the latter has been achieved. Oh so NASTY! ... more
