Welcome to audacity, you're seated with your majesty
I've got the Kremlin backing me, I write these written's casually
They mad at me, I sympathize, just close your eyes and visualize
This music be my newest ungh!, bass blowing out your trunk
Little rascal spraying tabasco at castles
With no hassles I get it done, Joey Flacco
Bang with this team I'm on, bars hard as Donkey Kong
Hercules a demi-god, but I'm feeling doubly strong
Live from suburbia my curb is the crash spot
Hippies spill they stash out, all over the black top
It's a house party, you're cool so you're invited
I ain't talking bout you bitch ass niggas don't get excited
So if you have any questions about the like
Please watch my presentation, have a good night

I feel like Moses up here, speaking from the cliff
Dropping fire on the crowd, I'm igniting shit
I feel like Moses up here, speaking from the cliff
Dropping fire on the crowd, I'm igniting shit
I feel like Moses up here, speaking from the cliff
Dropping fire on the crowd, I'm igniting shit
I feel like Moses speaking to my people
Jigga taught us all about D'Evil's, Ok

Upset of the century, hydraulic telepathy
Mention me on the strength of me, powerful like the Kennedy's
70 minus 40, I'm Maury with recognition
I'm hitting it from the back, and pound it into submission
Your money be telling jokes, my money be selling hope
Some niggas about the hoes, some niggas about the boats
Classic kicks, back with a fascist twist
The proctologist is all up in that ass again
Talk shit then pop off, y'all fuck boys is weak sauce
It's going down, going up, going down, see-saw
With my whole collection, you've got total recall
Her ass is as phat as a donkey, hee-haw
Riding round town on a bike seat so they see
So they see, so they see, ain't nobody next to me
Ain't nobody shotgun, semi or a 38
Contemporary poet, with a flavor for the derby day

Sturdy in my stance and it make 'em mad
I don't care if it's your birthday, I don't give a damn
I wouldn't give a fuck if I had a pocket full
Couldn't be anymore cool laying on ice cubes
There he go again the bike dude, still riding solo
Instagram with my stutter shutter, like the photo
Jeans sharp as fuck, J's fly as fuck
Style like my iPhone plus it needs my special touch
The world's Brady Bunch, it's sneaks against the pumps
I got that sugar that you need like Hawaiian punch
360 with the double dunk, yeah I never front
Rhodesian ridge back, proper for the lion hunt
Holding onto my ciabatta in Miata's
You be talking bout this pussy that you claim you get alotta
The flow is Solbiato, Italiano covers
You might know somebody but you'll never meet another..

I'm singling piggies out, eenie meenine minie moe
Happy with them two's and fews, you call it that moderate dough
Pockets are impoverished so I gotta get it where it is
Sometimes she throw it back but I prefer to push in with
Epinephrine inserted, uncertain if it is working
My purpose is mystified, it is analyzed and determined
I'm blazing without a permit, and burning the latest version
While chanting deep in a cave, learning healing magic from Merlin
Shit, anytime, you can perish anytime
I'm never scared so this breath you can take mine
As pissed off as double shifts making straight time
And whip the beat like a motherfucking hate crime
Hardly I'm Harvard or Cornell, but this witch doctor
Gets it busy with the spells, all hail
I suggest you send your best up, it's like a game of catch up
This universal knowledge supersede your pay scale

Gather round as I create sound
Bat over the mound bout to swing now
And I'm lapping y'all niggas (Is he lapping y'all niggas?)
Said I'm lapping y'all niggas (Nah Nah Nah Nah Noooo)
Gather round as I create sound
Bat over the mound bout to swing now
And I'm lapping y'all niggas (Is he lapping y'all niggas?)

All dogs that are murdered go to Heaven
Internet thugs leaking Heinz 57
My ethics of a peasant blend with rhythms of a reverend
Hands down in my class you should never question
Achieve perfection in your profession, gentle aggression
Set yourself in place when their greater than, lessens
Oak trees whittle from the middle by my riddles
And the razors come in waves full of sound from the fiddle
Better with the speech like I'm Ivy Leave privately
Amassing information at the time of speed (speed of time)
Brave young boy at the spear of the drum line
Two blue kazoo, blowing like it's party time
Who those threats for?, I bet they hardly mine
Four pennies and a nicki, that is your only nine
Keep Citizen on the wrist like I own times
These bars hard to speak like my lungs are mis-aligned

Gather round as I create sound
Bat over the mound bout to swing now
And I'm lapping y'all niggas (Is he lapping y'all niggas?)

You cross me look both ways, you won't thrive past today
That's two days past Tuesday, the week end, your week end
They chiefin', it's reaking, it's front line, no speaking
She asked if I've eaten, I love Puerto Rican's
And Cuban's, Dominican's, stacked like my Benjamin's
Niggas got the curb blocked, I don't care if it's 10 of them

Everything is purple, so loud that we heard you, we just here to serve you (x2)
- Verse
Not tired, no visor, shine like a black eye
If you not tryna lift your skillet, really why try?
No lights we ride right, from earning as urbans
Break dancing, skydiving, skiing and surfing
Light liquors, dark liquors, three shots of Bourbon
Wet spots from head shots, my language is swerving

Everything is purple, so loud that we heard you, we just here to serve you (x2)

Ninjutsu insert these knives in you, then forward dash shinku-hadoken suspenseful
Retarded like I'm mental, introverted like I'm vengeful
I'm sharing all these secrets, you should probably grab a pencil
Scenery in my memory as vivid as the falling leaves
I'm trying to believe I'm the one like Keanu Reeves
You new to excellence, this level here I cherish it
Knowing good and well the top is lonely, Mount Everest
Living while I'm sleep deprived, I'm living fried to feel alive
While many try to multiple they happiness by living lies
A timid guy I never tried convincing that I am the shit
Escorting on this mental trip, it's mystery so the plot will twist
It's DC nigga huh man?, I went from stunt man to jump man and I never gave one damn
Broke out the nipple clamps and paddles, made that bitch ski-daddle
I treat my bedroom sessions like a major battle
Get ahold of yourself or feel your bones rattle
This underground community, we like the new Fraggles
I'm grandma as I'm waiting on my lunch snack
A predator in disguise you know as Wolf Trap
- Verse
Yours truly, my becoming became raps ruby
Multitude of phrases in these pages and they noted duly
I bet they'd hope to shoo me, but I ain't buffin' wit it
They orders switching mid mission we all ready did it
Scraping guap around the clock until my heart stop
We crowd surf off a cliff that's not the worst part
I hear these cheap emcees that be trying to fill in vacancies
But they not prestige, yet these super genes make me part of the league
This music I bleed through, you probably thinking Evisu
Lyrical ties, Loca the Cracker Jack prize
When she energize niggas terrified, man up
I self express as a quantum riddle, after some years
They still dealing with a stiff pickle
Such extremists in my midst, provoking apocalypse
Crashing waves into the ship until it flips, and that's just how I do

Only a few seconds 'fore, I rid you of my presence
Yet the gems that I give to you, please receive it as a blessing
All your life is but a lesson, I hope you are in digestion
Of the knowledge and the wisdom, open mind that's full of questions
I believe your proper placement is right now within this session
I think God might be a woman, cuz your pussy feels like Heaven
And the cosmos show her face, which is only known as grace
And the beauty she displays, surely put you in your place
Never have I felt more alive, it's like a tide
Of pleasure waves hi-jacking as you take a ride
The flows organized, but a portion part surprise
You cannot say the truth, if you're speaking fluent lies
I'm Mr. Golden Sun, you'll see me daily rise
At your local horize, morning wood bonerfied
Man of the year, but not a man of the times
Always coming at that neck, like it's a fetish of mine

Club is wasted, Uber here
And I ain't thinking clear, so play it by the ear
We toast to chandaliers, keep it debonair
I know that Debbie's rear, product of Zaire
Fitting to keep me near, all this atmosphere
Please don't interfere, get my fix like engineers
And nigga it'll be the day, yeah yeah, I don't know cocaine
Yeah yeah, lemons to lemonade, bae bae, she can't be contained

CitizenXVII, oh that's odd
This nigga feeling himself, must be a handjob
I gotta run and relay, sort of track star
Luminescent in the booth like a rap god
I got some pointers for y'all, lets call them red dots
If in a pinch I'll put a bitch up in the med shop
Cuz you was caught up in the streets like a dreadlock
But I'm too cautious bout the drama, I suggest not
Niggas hard headed, let em learn first hand
She let me blow on her face, just like a church fan
She want attention, she really love attention
Lights out patent that ass like new inventions
Unapologetic, I'm sorry, not sorry
My sharpie write between the times, they reply tardy
Give me the loot like Notorious, ain't nothing new
Pockets shy, if you ask I will say to you
- Verse
Fuck is up, catch you with that tiger uppercut
Why you keep on doing shit?, cuz I don't think I've done enough
When I see my layout is like a buffet
That is when I'll take my top off like toupees
Hands going yoga as I'm stretching for the thoughts I hold
Started from the bronze, but I'm really worth my weight in gold
And I never knew, but you never know
Mind state Dominoes all about the dough
After I kilt, I toast Scotch with the bagpipes
Even if the sun don't shine I'm on my flashlight
Even if we on Plan C, make sure the plans right
I like my meals home cooked, you're eating franchise
I've not begun to fight, you just about the hype
Day walker with my Ray Ban's cuz I'm tired of night
Spell my name right, Citizen X to V
I give these last two I's, even the blind can see that all I wanna do

Started wit the dust off a dime, you seek and you find
The conversationist, more than speaking in rhymes
Mega deep with the lines, if you keeping the time
The seconds slipping past quick like having sex with Beyon
Ce, today my say is stray you get left
Betray, you meet death, not seeking conquest
I spit it the best, you swallow my girth, you modeling jerk
Not tryna hear, if you scared go to church
If I release my visions, cuz I see in multi prisms
The whole planet will stop spinning when I find the fourth dimension
And to mention that I kill it, is like jackin' jillin' spilling
Man soup full of chillin' from the top floor of your building
I don't do this for the millions, but I do this for the feelings
That this rapping started giving to my essence through my hearing
But the drama I ain't acting, this about my satisfaction
So the lyrics I am dragging through the forest from my wagon

Doing my Dougie, the bars little chubby
Flow style sunset, the ladies think its lovely
Get your hands off, before I put my hands on
Like a hands on class, I instruct in rare form
I mirror the era, where they was about the battling
Lyrics that would snatch your soul, have your thoughts traveling
Rappers were adrenaline, now they're baby aspirin
No longer down to Earth, cuz they label gassing them
So I through a flag at em, raging in my zebra top
Always got an eye on competition, Fetty Wap
Glow stick, my petty life is not a sure shot
But a nigga transforming like an autobot
You say you battle-tested, I think you barely fought
You've never seen the world, you only know your block
You can't disturb my path, when you're already stopped
Disrespect and get molly whopped, off the top

It's a wonder motherfuckers didn't replace us with machines
Rich fat Robotniks plot shit and it's only logic
That we come through and rock shit
Like Michael's and Jennety
Niggas ain't ready I'm sharper than machetes
And them claws on Freddy, who want fi test me like the homie on Belly
I got what they need, the ace up the sleeve
See me on the mic and I'll proceed to cleave
I gets my chop, I be killing these cuts this that real hip-hop
I'm a beast on beats that's never tame
I come from the jungle the mics my hunger game
Just feed me the cake, I might bite ya hand homie and shit out the plate
I'ma NWA straight Outta My Mind
Call me Auto Drive cause I keep y'all bitches in line
Press rewind so yall can hear the lite shine

D.C. to Charm City, nuff respect
Global position competition, navigate the rest
We in a no flex zone, but my bars on fleek
Like toilet paper in the bathroom, always in reach
Always unique, I'm snowflakes in wind
Their fools good builds them up, but I'm replacing em
30 with some riddles left, stop your argument
Overruled, your honor I object
When on my conquest these niggas plead no contest
I'm airing out facilities they think they merely bomb threats
I bomb first, trinity, all-American in my own league
With my own job, plus car keys, in my own crib, with my own cheese
Say never say never, but I'm sure you've never been to Never land
Squaring up alongside Ruffio and Peter Pan
Learning how to fly, how to fight, how to Russel Crowe
She rubbing on this bald head, bout to make my dick swole
Fuck with my bro, its such a no-no so don't
Thinking that you skilled but you just
Coo-coo for coco and I do hope that you do know
That my Nike's is two-toned
Out in the Kalahari but I'm only hunting culo
While wrecking with my government, nicknames and my pseudo
I'm on my ninja shit from 80 hours of Naruto
Sipping neon's so we lit up, no virgins ain't wit us
Bitch say it with ya chest, having sex, like a tit fuck
I'm more so but much less, they stale mate, I'm so fresh
You think you grown, but you'll learn
When the time comes, who knows best, yes
I get busy when I'm speaking vividly
Y'all some monkey ass niggas hopping round tryna mimic me
That's a true lie cuz who am I?
Dropping science on these niggas like I'm Bill Nye
Pass these bills past my supervisor
Brother I aspire higher, higher than the RPM on my Black Avenger tires
Poetry is just a little me, energy reaching up into infinity
These dudes don't really know diddly
Better than me, hah, gotta be kidding me
They coming after my grands, I'ma put the paws on em no hands
We tryna get the drums off stage, all band
Got my kicks on but they look like vans, damn
I see a horny ass thick bitch I'm pulling it, slim thick I'm pulling it
Smell good, I'm pulling it
Back me in a corner in Grenada with grenade pins
Helpless as the sails down in Hell, I'll escort them
Bring that ass here, I never hide
Like to keep your crab ass near, its suicide
That you think you can appeal to a psycho, but I'm low key
Characteristics so potent they should smoke me
Battle with the valor of a grizzly when its cubs
Are endangered by your guns, sense your presence as you come
Only one breath until you're done, breathe easy
Only one chance you will receive to deceive me
The lamp flickers, swing against the gravity
Happy thoughts gone, I romanticize depravity
Turn the music up, watch me sodomize it savagely
That brother leaving blood on the walls? They like he has to be

I mean I ain't even opt to treat this broad just like a prostitute
Foolish ol' me, ol' proper dude, not even watchin' clues
Wish I woulda popped the cooch then told the bitch to 'watch the boot'
Instead she caught me, got her rocks off and hit up option two

Need of another dick, said I'm the object of her desire

Gotta tell ya man damn, sounding cray spitting now
Make your old shit sound, like you was playing around
This is mass hysteria I'm sending waves in the crowd
While they say what I say as I steady my bloods crown
When it goes down fight against the gravity, tumbling insanity
Cocaine Danity, skill increases gradually, checking women annually
Concealing my subconscious in the automotive paneling
Wise guy that can chuckle with the best of em
And spit a sick sixteen at the 10 percent
This epithet is structured like its beside a brick
You better verify your cards if you insult my deck
And I'ma let it be known I'd yank them BDU's
Then proceed to eat her butt like it was puppy food
Forgive me if I'm rude, get my manners back on track
But now she know what it is and I won't take it back
Dealer pull the Benz in, tryna get them ends out
You an old Coca-Cola son bout to fizz
And you'll probably only live, long enough to be a snitch
When they come and end your family, you'll know why they did
But ask out of nervousness, everybody heard of this
17 got them gold bars that superfluous
Watch me as I murder this, witness to this snuff film
Mortals in combat, welcome to nether realm
I'm a paragon for my soldiers in arms
They threw a brother good vibes like the Dalai Lama
Don't ever confuse what I do in my public appeal
Like when I'm in the nude, its like
I'm the lost bastard of Casper that came after
The heroin fiend who was a great dancer
Who dropped his dreams off for that white Tampa
But can't stomach himself, go get some Mylanta
So my answer is fuck everything
You looking for a crutch, buy a wedding ring
In my recklessness I've said a mess of things
They know I'm bold as L'Enfant and the lettering
Straight outta PG, emcees envy
Listen to my story of pain and there's plenty
The rugged raven seeking rest in another's nest
They send me on my flight and never wish the best
Offering maggot food, hoping I might ingest
Sending the men to the left to concentrate on death
But I can lead you out, need only follow me
May I present to the courtroom exhibit C

They hating on me cuz of my special delivery
Most fantastic, black flesh entity
Complex chemistry, enemy of empathy
Limping through the world, injuries like little Timothy
I'm in my mind, I'm such a cortex resident
And dress sharper than the next black president
I'm bringing back that whole food for the people
Blood of a slave but my heart remain regal
Taking these scraps of hate and make cake
Society distorting my space, Feng Shui
Arrival of the citizen is equal to the omen
Deliver classic words, Times New Roman
They favor when I'm Roman, the Pompey to your Caesar
Mitch put the mic in my mind, I was eager
I'm faster than 768 MPH
Sound heard 36 hours after first take
Grown man shop at Joseph A. Banks for my clothes
You a lame, go to Joseph A. Banks for a loan
I step inside the booth they be boarding up they homes
Under the Sprint tower, I'm really in my zone
If you fuck with it not, then state you don't condone
But your bitch take my bone while she prone, so its whatever
Mighty clever like a brain with a six pack
I'm slinging thick meat ya mama call it Big Mack
Fingers on the knob so I'm coming in
Get your camcorders ready, even bring a friend
Cuz its a party then, I'm thinking probably 10
Are 9 dead if I ever decide to hop in
With a UFC three piece, KFC green beans
All these psychedelics in the air I think I'm seeing things
The heels and rings I bring about
She can hardly yell with Mandingo in her mouth

Absorb the sound wave coming through your speaker
I blink twice and my life's a strange creature
The best teacher can be found when you journey in
They cannot give fully til' they find what's hurting them
Administrator with this galaxy of godly wisdom
I dictate over you while you asking permission
These rappers seeking out attention but the price of vision
Is that you go and see the world, overcome your ghetto living
Or your suburban comforts, and your financial crutches
They want our mother ruined, with their perverted touching
I never ran from overcast to a flask
Full of liquid with the task set to numb you from your past
And the master that you serve is the person that you pass
So your life is in a split, said you cannot get it back
But you do not plan ahead, you're just living to react
As you focus all the blame, cuz your pigmentation black

Give me something meaningful, but everything has a meaning tho
Like sky's to the birds, let's fly around the earth
Feeling the vibe, we live and we die
Tryna survive, concealing our flaws
Building our pride, what is our cause
We look towards the sky, building what's real
Why do we kill, destroying all we deploying
It's more to life then decoying, all of that be annoying
From the beginning of time, it's all broken
Throw lines in the air like spell casters
Thereafter no laughter, try to fix your fractures
pick up the pieces after, trapped in yo mind, killing your soul
Will you snap in yo mind, create other roads
In the first person, could be the the worst person
When you curse your worth, then roll
Wit whateva comes your way, swayed by and then made by
Slaved by, and then weighed by, stereotypes you obey by
Think you fine but you lost, what trick ain't got no cost
Most traps start out soft, molded by the environment
Looking for some inspirement, cuz your whole desire went away
No way to convey this path you made so you let it fade

And im never showing fear

Face to face with the crowd like what you want from me?
Battling myself with precise cunning
Set the roof on fucking fire got the party jumping
Seeing through the haze, keep the lights low
Out and about in the rain you gotta breathe slow
Let it set you for the story that you're yet to tell
I keep my confidence up like I can never fail
Headed to New Jeruz tryna see my baba
That's my shorty Alana, she used to understand
How I negotiate my thoughts as a man
Then she moved down south, sudden change in her life plan
I've witnessed butterflies fall from the sunshine
Evil lives long yet the righteous get one time
So if I had one line that prescribed peace
Please inscribe it, just above where they bury me
- Hook
You ever wonder how I got this far?
Kept my nose clean while studying hard
I was a virgin, innocent and polite
Y'all know what I'm like, you play it in your system every night
You ever wonder how I got this far?
Kept my nose clean while studying hard
I was a virgin, innocent and polite
Y'all know what I'm like, you play it in your system every night
- Verse
They say you cry at birth from your last breath
I always count on change, cuz that's a good bet
Near the sunset in mine fields, where the fools met
Witty with your words but, mortals never fool death
Having lunch with the zealous so they told to me
Have thou said thy Hail Mary's with the rosary?
But knowing me, I'm suppressed by the stress
It would take UPS a Godsend just to notice me
Flowing forever openly, sewing totem poles
On my inner soles, I'm above your petty larceny
Poetry that is hard to read, I predator on bended knee
Kept my thoughts quiet, they ain't smart enough to target me
Judge gon' have to pardon me, Scott-free of murder one
On my Tupac Shakur, 96 troublesome
Verses that be bubbling, profit steady doubling
Got my fists in a clench, I ain't scared of none of them
Best of the best out here, we don't surrender
People in my ear leaning on me like suspenders
Step into my universe while I offset your center
I spit bars for the future, hope they remember

I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
You got me fucked up, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
You got me fucked up, I ain't dealin' wit it
- Verse
LED's, tinted windows and the rims, many men
Wanna see me left leaking in the Benz, blood within is now
Blood without, leaking out, tragic when that semi spray
Medical examiners be like "fuck 'em anyway"
Nigga get a real grip, bullshit I don't deal with
Fresh as Will Smith, pockets fat as Uncle Phillip
End it like a kill switch, but they can never kill this
Step up to my face, catch a spinning bird heel kick
I been on these loony pills everyday is better
If you wonder why I shine, it's 3,000 days of pressure
No one can do it better doc, stacking carrots round the clock
Split your life's philosophy, hands up Mr. Spock
You'd rather call it quits, I'd rather hit these shots
And life's a bumpy road, you best upgrade your shocks
I'd rather stand in one spot and fight you all at once
Than high tail it to the hills like a fucking punk
- Hook
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
You got me fucked up, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
You got me fucked up, I ain't dealin' wit it
- Verse
What could be better bitch, look like you missing
Good dick, here's a real nigga, take a good whiff
Cuz I'll only be around for the now, penetration over
Sounds as the bull, fornicating with the cows
Kiss the sky and the clouds, what you lost I have found
And my skills haven't peaked, they regroup and rebound
I amaze and astound, by the words I compound
As the spirits return, bodies climb out the ground
We in another age, returning to the caves
Pimping Mother Earth, but the corporate's getting paid
Privacy, I'm surprised it ain't legal to streak
And narcotic laws changing every week
You can be candid dammit, Citizen we can stand it
Trying to protect from what's to come like a prophylactic
Call the manager, we've got some shit to settle
Don't be surprised when you see me pass your level
- Hook
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
You got me fucked up, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
I ain't dealin' wit it, I ain't dealin' wit it
You got me fucked up, I ain't dealin' wit it

As young men seek adventures and quests to digest
The hands of young maidens to have and impress
This humble citizen created within the U.S.
Traveling many miles to be seen as the best
There he stood on the edge of truth and the precipice of lies
Seizing this moment, another verse sighs
Within his mind he lacked the will to go toward danger
Yet courage whispered from his sword, go forth stranger
I believed in his mission, and I can share in his sight
He fought bravely by day and dodged demons by night
And I'd give him my life as he'd do for me
He's a family to Earth, and befriend by the sea
I've seen with my eyes salvation stripped
Clawing away from beneath the crypt
The flesh is weak but he's ripping the script
Peace be upon him as he stands steady as trees
I've battled for him and now he battles for me
- Hook
I've got you, you've got me
We've got each others backs
Ain't nothing changing that
I've got you, you've got me
You've been supporting me
So you earn my loyalty
I've got you, you've got me
We've got each others backs
Ain't nothing changing that
I've got you, you've got me
You've been supporting me
So you earn my loyalty
- Verse
Nothing here that I can't touch, Black Lite we a band bunch
Put it on the line like fresh clothes, ideas on escrow
Loyalty that real stamp, sleep on grass, that real camp
We been down since '06, flows stream like NetFlix
Top hat it's magic, young death is tragic
When black folks lose they lights, they don't fear they plan it
From my own planet, my wisdom expanding
My mind isn't one track, it's mapped out in tangents
Poppa Doc yeah I own this, Midgar we zoning
Sephiroth, Shinra Corp, Cloud Strife, Buster Sword, whew
Case of snacks, energy when I'm on the track
Plenty H-O-E to F-U-C, yeah I'm like hold back
Maybe you should hold off on the raps I once was told that
But that was just what I had to hear to make my shell crack
The shell cracked, now the turtle snapping back
Detonate on Eastern Standard Time and leave my city flat
- Hook
I've got you, you've got me
We've got each others backs
Ain't nothing changing that
I've got you, you've got me
You've been supporting me
So you earn my loyalty
I've got you, you've got me
We've got each others backs
Ain't nothing changing that
I've got you, you've got me
You've been supporting me
So you earn my loyalty
- Verse
I should name the next release hell yeah he dope
Make you nod slow, something like a speed boat
New shit download, goofy why you waiting?
I'm on point like a court room accusation
I once was patient, depicting passive patience
Now they can call me doctor, prescribing what you taking
All this arrogance bruh, beneath a humble fragrance
My blood pressure rise, have the Coliseum shaking
I'm Pandora's box, tryna stay to myself
Sometimes my character is colder than the arctic shelf
Get these parallels in line, they need some parking help
Last time I got mad it made the Kepler belt
But I pledge to this art like I do my son
Give it my everything, so I'll never be unsung
Like that DC sun, I agree that We-R-One
Your intentions without discipline will always be undone
