Not Here Anymore |
Went to the well and made a wish |
Pray to God I stay around, Tigallo love to throw his weight around |
On the same scale they weigh the fish |
It’s just what it seems, sweet dreams are made of this |
Holla at me if you ever been a underdog or set up a upset |
Standing on the verge of your success |
Steady bearing your soul to the world, you undressed |
Surrounded by your successors and the whores you ain’t fucked yet |
That’s how I was gettin it |
I don’t need the limelight, that’s young nigga shit |
I’m a O.G. |
and the G is for gentleman |
Yes, Phontigga spit amazon flame, watch 9th rekindle it |
Cause I pad verses with the wisdom of my innocence lost |
Two brothers, two peas in a pod, two comeback seasons apart |
Take it back to when I be in the park |
Then rhyme 'til I couldn’t see in the dark |
So silly niggas betta be on ya guard |
Long as breath is in my being, I’mma be on my job |
With good music, got that good feel |
A good meal, leafy greens, two veggies, protein and a starch |
And I’m out |
Right where I thought I’d be |
It’s another part of me |
And the world’s so sad to see |
That I’m not here anymore |
Wind blowing through the trees |
Blue Bull City skies, 70 degrees |
Te' embodies a architect and when he rhyme about it |
He body the whole alphabet, so bury me a G |
My mama say she done enough worrying for me |
So I’m done currying, favor what you niggas groundhog |
And spitting that same shit, y’all Bill Murraying |
My D.C. niggas say you bamas lack expurrience |
Carolina on my mind like Steve Spurrier |
I’m the courier, carrying the word that with these verbs |
That nigga Phonte’s a little murderous |
See a little nervousness, and a frown cause you know deep down |
You ain’t nice, just a little courteous |
You just running game nigga, we the fucking tournament |
You a temporary visa to a fucking permanent, resident |
Citizen, it’s evident the denizens |
Took over the big house on some Nat Turner shit |
Shoulders back, hair tied to the fucking firmament |
Can’t be like us, and fear no man |
Niggas bleed like us, get a fuckin' tourniquet, nigga |
I’m poetic while they po-thetic |
I play they life like a movie and in the end give 'em no credit |
I was told to run it, so I grip the baton |
And spit magic like it’s pouring out the tip of a wand |
Don’t trip, you ain’t equipped to fix ya lip and respond |
I plan to X you out like the man who hand you and script the Quran |
Since life flipped, I’m getting chips in Milan |
Pull dips, push whips like the one from the clips in the Tron film |
I blow your mental mass where your mind stem |
Like a nine M-M right at your line trim |
You must rewind him, the syllable sensei |
Then bring ya to ya knees the way biblical men pray |
Or whores in a brothel |
Cause I spill ill from the grill |
Like one who reveals sores from their mouth hole |
And if you only knew the shit that I been through |
To paint the type of pictures my pen drew |
Your label tries to fuck you, your friends screw you over |
Now you sober watching bad energy affect the evils that men do |
They fucking see through |
I’m a sick flower that carry lines |
Like when you click over on you dick blowers |
And it sucks to be you |
