BESOS 03:43
Why wouldn't you forgive me for something I never did Or love me for less than what you'd admit I found a 40oz in the bathroom at your crib Wonder why you didn't drink all that shit One swig for a bum, moved him ass off of the bridge Lived another day to tell his gift I've been dealing with some vices I rather not let Kill my liver, lungs or grab my dick I can hear the thunder of the mother Her husband is sick Sounds of dolphins dying on shore next to fish I can see the sun imploding summer of '06 Dumb drunk in love, ready to exist I'm reading books by someone's dead friends I bend the pages back I love on the bottom ends Set the book down and set trends I'm the proof that some mistakes put depth in offense When I pensive I pen, pornographic vernacular prince Two shorties shake the shack in back of the benz 30 packs, pack it all in, sell sacks to send Conny and friends To where they speak Castellano, madre y Mariano Valle de Santiago by way of Patria Helado Sweet kisses on our nose will change us forever If we hold hands and don't let go, we'll be together whenever Sweet kisses on our nose will change us forever If we hold hands and don't let go, we'll be together whenever Bastards on the avenue, call quits after street ball Settle for sunsets, summer sweets, and recall Recollection of detention, deferred student loans and speedballs One world combined of drug habits and detox I remember AA meetings in South O and Foxhall It was my babysitter to hear family's failures in reeds raw Horns players banged heroin Dying the longest deaths that let hero's arrow send The barron's theremin, I'm hearin' them I'm talking Chet Baker, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Bill Evans, all them cool cats To all the jazz giants and dead love, I write for you. I live for you Sweet kisses on our nose will change us forever If we hold hands and don't let go, we'll be together whenever

CAN I LIVE? 02:17
I hate my life, I love my life, I hate my life I hate my life, I love my life All she wanted was kisses on the mouth Sister's on the couch, saying something like She wished she was somewhere sunny, something in the south She smoked a cigarette, now piffin' the loud, sittin' in the shower thinkin' about rippin' it out She can't leave, her sister said, "She'll never leave" Five weeks ago she supposed to be out of this bitch She said, "Bitch, I swear to god I was supposed to be out of this crib Why'd you go tell daddy, I was about to dip with Juan and have his kid Candice can I live Just once if you did what I want you to did I could of turned into a butterfly and flew over this shit Now I'm stuck on this sentence to say, like "I hate you forever" Call you when I make it through to Lakeview in Denver It'd be better, cheaper bud, better grub, better weather Someday I could see us two on the 16 bus together But for right now I can't say that at all, the hot water cold Juan long gone, plus his ass on parole It's whatever, it's honest, it's whatever you want to call it It's lies that pressed a promise. That carried her Keds to plazas It's for the future she'll see without the fuckos and wam bams No more douchey duds to fuck on, she can't stand The bandstand merely a place to pour port on poor pork It's a light tan on a fucking a golf course It's not her truth to being, it's not the coup of BM(W) it's more a dm left on seen or semen without her pm(s), ya dig Sweet summer coming but none for the taking A pandemic perished her plans but Paris wait vacant While we wonder where our parents ran We can stan nathan Fuck it all watch the sun rise from your basement

COFFIN 01:30
Pictures with no frames Families from flying saucers Cicadas play the pom poms I dated coffins Sweet way to say I'm used to shade As an eighties object I replay pain, paragraphs My maybes soften Babies bought in Then baby I brought back Nodding to Conny crack Oochi wally, black wally rap Nollie back heel, nollie flip flat Nollie flip your newborn on a piggyback Conny gone, give me cap Gas for village Gas for your children Bracket their masters in a massive packet of feelings Take blood from their calves It's the bastards of buildings Cap everyone one of their tags Tag them, tattle I hit them God of the automatics Autocratics failed the classless system Caste benign love Ask them what's smitten To the shrine shrub that died once Born again like Jesus Christ was Trinity's three limes sliced cousin Everyday day we die for reasons In a four by four raised bed More born per season War kill gods Cost increasing Docile demons go for jogs after their jobs then they sleep in Weekends pretend they not dogs but deacons Who's wrong to be preaching Cops killed George Floyd on cement BIPOCs it's been killing season Since Columbus's BI was to keep a queen in appeasement Facts

How many molly rocks make a savant see demons and pee on his palms You confused a douche that done douched Conny with the tic-tac rap, battin' couth You need to back down, like you going back to Baton Rouge Conny a smooth criminal, minimal in a suit Say your prayers too late, you not that valiant dood Two adderalls can't save a duck from dying Pluck feathers, season bird, watch those words be frying I aint going to stop where I started, you fucking fired Fuck what you buying, dumb kids keep trying. Welcome to the New World, Real World, MTV, BET Hope you fucks know you die for free Dead kids rule America Won't you see your grandparents in the era of Mindless muck, benign tumors on the tits of Erica Murder, merit denied in every area From the burbs, sea shores, streets lords that boast Bury your dead with mango peels so the seas smell your soul I'm spazzing on chaos and can't cancel it now Sold man's weight in weed bags before I was yay-high, sold yay if it was out Want to get paid when the weight the lave an eighth in the couch Stuck in a rut like the pennies you be bitching about Scrapped five quarters caught a bus toward a war waging west of Mordor Land of cantor of condors, the banter of bombed ports The phantom of contoured dead bodies. Wish I knew karate, but I don't I guess I should lobby bicycle spokes and broken dreams Back when I shorted Adam Man with his mother's own triple beams Scientific Magazine, bastard Brent been a problem Before patent leather worn by Charlie Sheen, I'm mean I ain't going to stop where I started, you fucking fired Fuck what you buying. Dumb kids keep trying Welcome to the New World, Real World, MTV, BET Hope you fucks know you die for free Dead kids rule America Dead kids rule America Dead kids rule America Dead kids rule America Dead kids rule America Dead kids rule America Dead kids Dead kids rule America Dead kids rule America Dead kids rule America

Here's the syntax Vocational criminals move ten stacks Above pictures of my great grandmother held by tin tacks Been tax, been taxed, miss minimal brim smacks Piss venom and gift gem n' them pen pads It's so I can spell it for you love It's for the tension in the torso, for the dust cents in the dubs For the bus barcode and the cargo in the the cut For where the car going we getting money, money what up I'm shaking off the doozies because nothing forsaken I quit shaking fucker's hands because nothing is sacred I play the box shaven, stash the cash in the fox basement Pacing back and forth, 4th favor's amazement Asking for handouts, hand out of my pants Pandemics, damned gambits, Palmolive in pans I'm cooking, manifesting plans, for when my mans in a jam You Uncle Sam, I tax your stan for a gram, because I can Switch it up. Dark chocolate peanut butter cups, ate from her A cup Sea salt caramels be her favorite This for Dayshawn's shape up Day-Day, one day I'll see you again So keep it straight up. You're my brother I pitched flowers for a means for my mothers Piece pawn's ponzi schemes because karma's a bitch in Palms Springs Alarm was set so closed to dreams I slept walked through college, polished dollars Oliver twisted scholars and fiends Olives in a bowl of olive oil pressed by machines I wrote this all on a wooden stool as fucking king Between 37th street and shards of sharp cheese I made a martyr believe in a cat they can not be Here's the syntax, vocational criminals move ten stacks Above pictures of my great grandmother held by tin tacks Reinterpret allegories with a pre-roll Keys open doors -ear hustlin' in the peephole I never seen hope - just know what the dream know Made a couple fiends from gringos off the singles Life speed moving at the sound of the zero's I do the 1- binary inside the steeple My mind burying my ego Gotta coincide with the demons while I'm watering my people I'm bout growth through the weeds role Strong as the trunk of the trees-in the tree smoke Yall gotta married to the game but you eloped I'm ten toes-movin' through the sequence and achieve goals Everything's a system if you see codes I'ma make it glitch until I reach gold This world will press you if you didn't know Pressurized I became a diamond when it took a toll Play with your life the dice shook and roll Reapers at your back door - negus with that pole This is God in the movement of man you too slow Here's the syntax, vocational criminals move ten stacks Above pictures of my great grandmother held by tin tacks Here's the syntax, vocational criminals move ten stacks Above pictures of my great grandmother held by tin tacks

This year, I'm really trying to be a better person Flipped out of my hearse Now I'm back to dungeons flipping verses I hope the Dutch burns slowly When I puff I hope it hurt me I know my words start slurring when I'm drinking Gnac in coney Mister double back standing very closely like you know me I'm Oni with with the horns I'm blowing notes when I get lonely And when my phone ring it's what do you fucking want from me I'm on my own, I'm on my own Inside I feel nothing I'm in the ocean feel emotionless like stones eroding I used to open up now I struggle to see the point is I don't know what's wrong Honestly I'm over it Money just an object With it I got options Might adopt an octet Think about this often Reason you ain't popped yet Inside of your coffin Staring a locket homie what's the problem With a gun to my head and with sissy pushing a cart I put my heart to its failures Revisit when the sun go dark Panels of trains, carry my dead friends names as art Jazz standards played the vein Death pamper a monarch Pay it back and pay it forward to start Sounds like success live in the language Ancient anguish's remark On God, God owe me less than that room Space for forgiveness in grace Retrace my business to toothpaste and tunes Merrily singing songs of fate, fuck, punk fake fool Duck a jake or two to feel safe when I make a move I'm just an addict with his vices on its leash It's my niche, sending kites on papyrus I write this for the violence and deceased We was where the tyrants get theirs Til the pirates intrigued Now we are right here Among the powers and flowers of peace Dog we just those doods rapping and laughing Yal those boo-boos cappin' and trashin', your own friends Who love life but you hate yours What happened dappin' Fashion forward fuckos can suck this dick in Latin with no ends On God

ON GOD 04:23
I would like to apologize for all the toxic behaviors I emitted to this world To all the relationships I help to destroy in any and all capacities I've learned a lot this year. I've also learned to forgive myself too We might do shitty things here and there but doesn't make us shitty people On God On God, On God, On God I'd loved you better when we met each other at first glance Love can't be a statue it's more like a dance Ever cried in your hands when your world fell to pieces Drank the bottle of booze and passed out on the deep end Befriend an enemy, lose a friend for the weekend Then lose everything 'cause you ain't friend, you a fucking demon I've been that person before Never wanted to be the pain that would worsen the sore I guess that's the way life even the score Lose it all or build it better than before If not lose it all, find yourself in a cellar without a door Why you think Adam and Eve ate the apple to the core Why you think the strip club bump like the back of the Porsche When it's a go, let's go, it's an acute fashion of force Not turning back when she cute, an attraction to the sport Somethings last, others turn to trash in course Can't be mad you did bad, you got to do better with chores So clean that ass, spin the 'lac back to the porch Be that man you can be instead of the trash you was after the war On God, On God, On God I'd loved you better when we met each other at first glance Love can't be a statue, it's more like a dance How can you forgive yourself when you burnt it all to treasons Lied to yourself wide eyed to everyone you loved with no grievance You once took pride in how integrity worked to keep reason Rationality lied, dead lies, live amongst the wet seasons The place where tears ride the cheeks, where you cheese like pizza Since gone, no rights, motherfuckers now know my secrets Been bastard Brent for far too long Bout to switch tha fuck shit up and write a different song Purity from the earth, the pain made the story Would of done anything for her, but her vain bump the glory Did what shame does, when he can't be fit to sit in same satina sofa And his receipts cashed in thick We was all bad, toxic to say the least Been the extension of my father, the father figure I'll never meet In the end it's Brenton Michael Gomez Valverde 160 in my shorts, always made money the fairway- what up On God, On God, On God I'd loved you better when we met each other at first glance Love can't be a statue it's more like a dance On God, On God, On God I'd loved you better when we met each other at first glance Love can't be a statue it's more like a dance On God

MEDICINE MAN 04:20
Truthfully I've died a hundred thousand deaths since I was born I've watched D's pepper flowers bloom from my back porch I'd pay any monies for my grandmother's ham sandwiches in summers torn I found you the same as whence you came you was deaf and unborn It's a heart shape cake given to you in informal intersection life Scoop tragedy into a magic bag that majesty magnify Pacify panic, manic massive outcry Careless warriors in a vacant village known for killing a vibe Set my dead bunny in a hole contrived Lulu I love you, she loved papaya, in my mind she a fly Seen suffering erode being till one seeing death and demise Spray flowers wilt, happen to be a favorite of mine Estranged death petrify, born beauty in the nucleus of time Neutral friends bicker of love parachute liquor and wine Seen entire cities decay from the city council's decline Fuck Don Cline Many men were born without a spine Heads have hung on gate, fuck it heads have hung for mistakes Muster, mayonnaise, pickle spears on a plate Fantasy football, anti-anglosaxon degrade Man's peace is born for a laborer's peach that was picked as a trade Tell it like bees pull pollen or how my knees fall short bawling Buckle thy belt til my lungs wheeze cause I smoke p-funks and trees often Drink the tea or let it spell, read the prestige jargon Tarot cards in the coffin, stop friend, he dead But he searching for her when she already lost him Grandmother cross herself as she enter church where parish scorn Brown skin babies assimilate to cemalac and lilacs with thorns Corn grew in the backyard, where my great grandfather grew more Full circle for a family where we were taught to forget where we was formed -Mexico We are the wise people, simple angels grown from the earth Mourned our own history to feel the peasant pleasantries what capitalism prefer No we back, back better than ever my fam, tinctures and lettuce heads Welcome home, it's the fucking Medicine Man Tell it like bees pull pollen or how my knees fall short bawling Buckle thy belt til my lungs wheeze cause I smoke p-funks and trees often Drink the tea or let it spell, read the prestige jargon Tarot cards in the coffin, stop friend, he dead But he searching for her when she already lost him Tell it like bees pull pollen or how my knees fall short bawling Buckle thy belt til my lungs wheeze cause I smoke p-funks and trees often Drink the tea or let it spell, read the prestige jargon Tarot cards in the coffin, stop friend, he dead But he searching for her when she already lost him

about

Hailing from the heart of the matter – Omaha, Neb. – M34N STR33T draws inspiration from the high and the low, the ephemeral and the dead real. Rap, hip hop, and jazz influences are as essential to their music as skateboarding, horror movies, late nights, and the social reckonings happening in our streets. The ten tracks on their newest LP “Besos” see the two-piece – composed of producer Haunted Gauntlet and emcee Conny Franko – pushing themselves in new directions lyrically and musically. Verses exploring themes of joy, loss, and rage glide and jab over a sonic landscape that references and reassembles the sounds of the times.

“Besos” is a message in a bottle, a come-to-Jesus, a cry in the night, a Dear Jean, and above all a love letter – sealed with a kiss.
