|
| I’ve been on the rhyme since I made a first appearance
|
| I been on the grind never waited for the clearance
|
| Life is all the time so I’m gonna live it fearless
|
| Yeah, and people gonna hear this
|
| Made a little name with a vision and coherence
|
| Never been a lame no I’m closer to a genius
|
| Knowledge in my brain chalk it up to the experience
|
| Still I’m not rich but at least I ain’t broke
|
| Never sell dreams 'cuz I’d rather sell hope |
| People so lost in the mirrors and the smoke
|
| Think I’d be a realer bloke if I said I sold dope (nope)
|
| But my fans will tell you that I’m awesome (awesome)
|
| I started selling and they bought 'em (bought 'em)
|
| I told them 'gettemmm' and I got ‘em
|
| So if you want dope bars that is not problem
|
| It’s time to put the needles on the wax
|
| Rock hard like I got The Beatles in the back
|
| Go soft make an easy living off the map
|
| Or I can go hard like fricking cheetah on the track
|
| I’m grinding from a zero to a stack
|
| And I’m talking about deniro getting jacked
|
| If Wakanda needs a new king I’ma go hard to be the leader of the pack
|
| A needle in a stack and I’m a fiending to attack
|
| Not a baller, no T’challa but a hero and I’m black
|
| I’m an eagle to a rat, verbal demon on a track
|
| I’m a scholar and a brawler, you don’t feel it then you’re wack
|
| You’re always talking evil in your rap I’m trying put my meanings on the map
|
| I gave you 12 rules for life and kept my room clean
|
| I’m the Jordan Peterson of rap (chyeeea, bucko) |
| I will not go pop I will not go soft
|
| When I say no, means no (no)
|
| This is true hip-hop I do not flip flop
|
| When I say flow, mean flow (flow)
|
| This is perseverance, this is perseverance
|
| This is perseverance, this is perseverance (chyea)
|
| I will not go pop I will not go soft
|
| When I say no, means no (no)
|
| This is true hip-hop I do not flip flop
|

|
| This is perseverance, this is perseverance (chyeeea!)
|
| And I believe what I prophesise
|
| So I don’t apologise
|
| Unless I do wrong, I don’t bow to the mob I don’t live to antagonise
|
| But, they say I’m too outspoken
|
| They wonder if I’m joking
|
| Look, a little bit is jest but I say what I feel man, I’m real and I’m open
|
| Trust in God but I live in the physical
|
| Selfish thoughts but I give in the lyrical
|
| Thought cops hot want my speech to be criminal
|
| Lies get fought when I speak the political (why?)
|
| I am not left-wing I am not right-wing
|
| I just know all these things I know
|
| You cannot label me you can’t put shame on me |
| When I say go means go
|
| Fresh, I step into the premises
|
| Kick dope rhymes and they love how I’m expressing it
|
| Hop online and reply to all the messages
|
| Gotta spend time man I’m grateful that you cherish it
|
| Don’t talk crap, no I’d rather be irrelevant
|
| Can’t play dumb, people know that I’m intelligent
|
| See me up, late night, big beard, Letterman
|
| 12 years deep now I’m flowing like a veteran (chyeeea!)
|
| Dudes show love now I’m moving up in eminence
|
| Girls show love 'cuz they’re feeling all the pleasantness
|
| Got huge dreams I could never be a pessimist (nah)
|
| Too much love I could never be a feminist (ha ha)
|
| Girl, stop looking all incredulous
|
| I am not a bad man I am not your nemesis
|
| Always had a mega drive, take it back to genesis
|
| Worked so hard, time to reap a couple benefits (chyeeea!)
|
