Hey guys thanks for showing this was a lot closer than I originally expected it to be, still having a lot of trouble deciding who won. Let’s dissect it I suppose

Candy
This might be my favorite verses of yours this season. Coming in I thought the quote tailored to you somewhat more than Timeless as you’ve been sneaking in these vampiric references all season long, though some of this was less than coherent I believe I got the gist of it; vampire invades slumber party and offs some girls? Thought that was a cool concept personally and though you didn’t really take any chances some of your descriptions were dope. Thought the ending could have packed more of a punch personally, idk what the gif has to do with anything but thanks lol

“ people like us are beyond the depths realms
we have to go into the tv to become the now
we have no plan but soul through others eyes
we gaze and peer through what is endless vice

Thia mission is over we're darkness fell
too bad if we sleep though our blankets are now on the otherside of hell”

Timeless:
Contrary to what I told Candy this is probably my least favorite verse of yours this season, I’m glad you showed this week but this felt really rushed compared to your usual product. I liked the cop bit and related (had a cop get right up on my bumper yesterday and follow me for like 5 miles before finally pulling me over smh) but after that but the storyline became kind of fuzzy to me. I couldn’t tell if this was about police brutality or something else altogether? It might just be me though and I’m not reading it the right way. Flow was good as usual though.

“Midnight! .. says the clock, the minion of time itself on minimum wage starving.
A critical stage except for each hand, racing in slow motion yet finishing late often.
Drunk and asleep behind the wheel, still feel like control is all I have.
Highbeams intact, I peer in the rearview, console and then the dash.”

Verdict; I don’t know man, I thought Candy was more coherent than usual this week and Timeless was less so, I think he just rushed this one to get it in (which I appreciate) thought Candy did a good job setting the scene and though he’s not really up to par with the heavyweights yet this was a step in the right direction. Timeless had a misstep here IMO but perhaps the other voters will see it different
