Listen to The Rush by Kromozone

Now you see me
Now you don’t
Pure white like the driven snow
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
Pure white like the driven snow
.
Walking in a straight line
As I make eyes at your dripping nose
Only take a second
And blocked sinuses will clear
As for the depression
Will be some way less severe
I can make it go away
Just have to say the word
Go roll up that banknote
Will not see those edges blur
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
However you will know that I am present once I nestle in your throat
Can you feel the fog is lifting
Balance shifting in your favour
Not obliged to thank me
But I may well be your handsome saviour
Nothing feels so fucked when lady luck is dressed in white
Take another hit let’s make a lady of the night
.
Let’s make a lady of the night
Let’s make a lady of the night
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
Seldom out of mind when out of sight
Not about to lie your chest may feel a little tight
.
Pulse may race and heartbeat quicken
Nose may recommence its dripping
Not worth tripping got you covered
May well be your greatest lover
.
Grab that razor blade
Come make yourself another
.

Don’t forget to cover tracks
Remove all damning evidence
Our little secret you and I
The others wouldn’t understand
A pair of mindset veterans
.
Best we make this one time deal
Shake hands and make some expectations grand
Commiserations to those too afraid to play
The way we play
And long live Class A contraband
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
Pure white like the driven snow
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
Pure white like the driven snow
.
Pulse may race and heartbeat quicken
Nose may recommence its dripping
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
Pure white like the driven snow
.
Pure white like the driven snow
Pure white like the driven snow
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
Try to sleep
Regrettably you very likely won’t
Too much work afoot
Too many posers still to process
Questions burning
Stomach churning
Come and see the hostess
Will not see you down and out
When single well-timed snort can court osmosis
Open up that mind of yours
Supply creative fuel you crave
Fortune favours braveness
And endorses thoughts you stave away
Our little secret you and I
Effects to take directly to your grave
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
Pure white like the driven snow
No disgrace in chasing me
Seems innate to take it slow
With heavy nosebleeds commonplace
Will be right here to compensate
Remember that once you run dry
Keep your eye on next first prize
One quick hit will rectify
The sadness welling up inside
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
At least until the next time
.
What do you mean there will be no repeat
Please at least ween yourself off of me
Thought we had something no less than unique
Besides I go great with a mug of hot coffee
Don’t be so hasty
Seems cut-throat to waste me
Do utmost evading
When we could be trading
.
We could be trading
We could be trading
.
Now you see me
Now you don’t
I vote we take it slowly
Now get down on your feeble knees
And blow me
.
Blow me
Blow me
Blow me
Blow me
.
