​THE INFRASTRUCTURE ENFORCEMENT PROTOCOL ​[FX: Analog tape-saturation hiss + 808 sub-bass locking tightly with the clay drum heartbeat] ​CYCLE I: THE GROUNDWORK LOGIC ​Steady-aligning-me, heavy-combining-me, Ready-defining-me, continuum-mining-me. No-more-the-scattered-pain, look-at-the-pattern-gain, Step-in-the-shattered-rain, rule-over-matter-reign. They-wanted-lyricism, we-gave-them-syllable-prisms, Breaking-the-cynicism, locking-the-mysticism. Ancestors-ordered-it, Juju-has-bordered-it, Burg-City-fortified, blueprint-is-glorified. ​CYCLE II: THE FRICTION LOCK ​Street-cannot-swallow-me, future-must-follow-me, System-is-hollow-free, destiny-call-on-me. Rhythmically-healing-it, digitally-sealing-it, Spiritually-feeling-it, sovereignly-dealing-it. We-are-the-architecture, past-the-conjecture-lecture, Pure-ancestral-confecter, cosmic-direction-vector. Not-just-a-melody, this-is-the-remedy, Curing-the-jeopardy, guarding-the-legacy. ​CYCLE III: THE CONSTITUTION MATRIX ​From-the-drum-to-the-code, Clear-the-debris-off-the-road. From-the-voice-to-the-law, Perfect-without-any-flaw. Vocal-saturation, total-restoration, Global-activation, tonal-reclamation. They-cannot-break-the-chain, we-have-baptized-the-pain, Organized-every-strain, establishing-Juju-reign. ​CYCLE IV: MAXIMUM SATURATION SPEED ​Mentally-bracing-me, destiny-chasing-me, Ancestry-tracing-me, sovereignly-placing-me. Holily-schooling-me, happily-ruling-me, Lightly-refueling-me, deeply-renewing-me. ​SECTOR V: THE ANCESTRAL CRYPTO-LOGIC ​Code-in-the-vocal-cord, strike-with-the-sonic-sword, Lineage-undeplored, legacy-now-restored. Blood-in-the-battery, past-all-the-flattery, Shattering-fallacy, building-the-galaxy. They-thought-the-rhythm-fled, look-where-the-signal-led, Straight-to-the-fountainhead, waking-the-living-dead. We-are-the-monument, sovereign-and-dominant, Permanence-prominent, ruling-the-continent. ​SECTOR VI: THE URBAN PRESSURE CHAMBER ​Concrete-is-testing-me, asphalt-arresting-me, Pressure-investing-me, history-cresting-me. Iron-is-sharpening, dark-rooms-are-brightening, Thunder-and-lightning, infrastructure-tightening. No-dey-dilute-the-strain, filter-the-heavy-rain, Channel-the-ghetto-pain, corporate-asset-gain. Burg-City-engine-room, blasting-the-sonic-boom, Clearing-the-native-gloom, forcing-the-seed-to-bloom. ​SECTOR VII: THE LITURGICAL SYSTEM-CONVERT ​From-the-chant-to-the-charter-sheet, Grid-on-the-city-street. From-the-trance-to-the-balance-book, Own-every-path-we-took. We-write-the-clause-again, breaking-their-laws-again, Fixing-the-flaws-again, claiming-applause-again. This-is-no-accidental-vibe, this-is-the-governing-tribe, What the deep-drums-inscribe, systems-cannot-circumscribe. *STREET CADENCE: GOD-CODE* _Waffi tempo. Benin bounce.

Cadence locked._ ​SECTOR VIII: CONTINUUM SPEED-OVERLOAD (MAXIMUM COMPRESSION) ​Spiritually-mending-me, endlessly-extending-me, Tenderly-defending-me, mentally-bending-me. Quietly-gracing-me, spiritually-placing-me, Endlessly-raising-me, destiny-praising-me. Horizontally-storing-it, vertically-restoring-it, Spiritually-pouring-it, eternally-exploring-it. ​NA-RECALIBRATION! NA-REACTIVATION! NA-RECONSTRUCT-AM! JUJU-CONDUCT-AM! ​The architecture is no longer abstract. The paragraphs are star-maps, the verses are iron beams, and the rhythm is an unyielding constitution. ​GOD IS iN THE WORK. AFRO-JUJU CONTINUES..
