| I said, outer space the place that I’m parkin' in
 | 
| My marketin', when you see the sky darkenin'
 | 
| Rhyme artisan from the crew that’s bipartisan
 | 
| Hi haters a 5th grader you’re not smarter than
 | 
| Alpha & Omega you betas I march harder than
 | 
| Batteries, y’all ain’t included, you’re not a part of it
 | 
| I just took a flight to France to cop cardigans
 | 
| At Lanvin
 | 
| I’m that primetime Buju Banton
 | 
| And I’m just trying to get it on 'til I die
 | 
| Am I wrong if I’m living like the laws don’t apply?
 | 
| Making music out of nothing, know that boy’s bonafide
 | 
| It’s disturbing when a murderer enjoys homicide
 | 
| Talented Mr. Trotter squad, beyond qualified
 | 
| Multiplying the dollar sign, the grind is real it’s Palestine
 | 
| My sidekick came from Columbine
 | 
| That fly shit came from Saint Laurent
 | 
| Surprise, bitch! | 
| I never lived a false moment in time
 | 
| Riddle me, what kind of omen am I? | 
| You know the slogan is ride
 | 
| I said a weapon should be chosen to fire
 | 
| Only the ghetto Beethoven replied, the ninth wonder maker
 | 
| Thunder breaker send these toys to the undertaker
 | 
| My pen smoking like a rude boy from Jamaica
 | 
| While I’m erasing every fuckboy from the face of the Earth
 | 
| What’s up, boys? | 
| It’s time for you to get your weight up
 | 
| Yo, I probably began in the Rift Valley
 | 
| In places untraceable by Rand McNally
 | 
| Took a cobblestone trolley through a Mercer Street alley
 | 
| To more championship rings than John Salley
 | 
| Biochemically on par with Salvador Dali
 | 
| I traveled to Tijuana and smacked the federali
 | 
| Who packing avocado toast like Mario Batali?
 | 
| I’m an ocean without a coast, going back to Cali nigga
 | 
| Name some other body equally as ill
 | 
| Frequently I see the drama call me Cecil B. Demille
 | 
| Not a chink up in the armor though I’m lethally for real
 | 
| People been telling me recently, «Tariq, you need to chill!»
 | 
| But picture that, the diplomat pistol slap aristocrats
 | 
| Any rapper coming for me, I’ma send a missile back
 | 
| Not too many legends got a legacy that’s this intact
 | 
| That equipment I’m grippin kept where the ammunition at
 | 
| Soul Makossa like I’m Manu Dibango
 | 
| Wild as the Democratic Republic of the Congo
 | 
| I’m Hunter S. Thompson doing it Gonzo
 | 
| A rapper winds up as a John Doe, I told niggas
 | 
| Sixty seconds to shine before I fold niggas
 | 
| I must be out of my mind with it, gold diggers
 | 
| Here come the general for the quadricentennial
 | 
| I’m a non-millenial what I rep is the old niggas
 | 
| Let’s meet at the crossroads and toss O’s
 | 
| And learn some things only the Lord knows
 | 
| Break the law, it’s the only law now, no one knows
 | 
| Got pies in the oven but no DiGiornos
 | 
| We all got fucked but no pornos
 | 
| We ain’t growing corn but got cornrows
 | 
| We ain’t plant greens but we be spending it
 | 
| Lifespan is short, try extending it
 | 
| If you ain’t into reading, I’m recommending it
 | 
| I’m reading Carter G. Woodson when I’m in the woods
 | 
| When the money’s cut off, will we barter goods?
 | 
| A lot of niggas is cowards and ran out of fatherhood
 | 
| Should we kill them or let 'em live?
 | 
| I don’t fuck with no suckers, I never did
 | 
| Mi amor, if you a Moor
 | 
| If I ever go to war it’s the kids I do it for
 | 
| I eat emcees they can send me a few of ya’ll
 | 
| And by a few I mean way more than two
 | 
| You can times that by twenty and tell 'em to come through
 | 
| And watch ‘em get beat like African drums do
 | 
| Old soul, I probably gave lessons to Sun Tzu
 | 
| Lyrically I’m Bruce Lee mastering Kung Fu
 | 
| Rhyming with Black Thought possessing the black thought
 | 
| I told you that I’m conscious but bet you I’ll clap off
 | 
| I’ma be the one that they hold in a rap off
 | 
| I ain’t wrapped too tight, my nigga I snap off
 | 
| Or maybe I snap on
 | 
| When I go for the ride my nigga then latch on
 | 
| I’m Hannibal on an elephant, animal but elegant
 | 
| Given you hell heaven sent
 | 
| Light a joint, I’ve been places you’ve never been
 | 
| Close my eyes, I could die then get wise
 | 
| Treat my life like a script, I’m getting it revised
 | 
| Used to keep the beat joint right up in the Levi’s
 | 
| I’m the tenth wonder I told them to ask 9th
 | 
| I’m the other Black Thought, the last ear bender
 | 
| Avatar ghost, the one who could bend time
 | 
| The one who could bend rhymes, the one who could bend flows
 | 
| Repping for old niggas, little nigga you know
 | 
| We the ones who made making of a murderer
 | 
| Fuck around, you could be in making of a murderer
 | 
| Ghost! |
