MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
Yo, that nigga thought flows like a river
I deliver styles like dominoes
Eyes closed, I inhale equality
Follow me now son
Listen my division advance
I surpass one half the rap master
Other half want my autograph
Because I got soul plus a ghetto stroll similar to Shaft
It's the mic rapist
Splittin' Phillies in the cellar
My acapella verse could stomp
I delete, call my Rated X
Larynx wrecks your context
I'm complex, confusin'
Lyrically amusin'
I drink bruised and when I'm groovin'
I'm no longer human
I like to take this time to give a shout
To all the money makers in the house
Come on and help me turn it out
I rip the black Cadillac
I'm laid back like your grams
I make niggas embarrassed like they spendin' food stamps
I take my time when I rhyme lovely
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
I'm on a mission
Sweepin' MCs away for testin'
Roots specialize in shootin' gift like Wes and it's Smith suggestin'
I lessen my manifestin' is the question
That answer's no yo
I'm destined to blow
Up like slugs from chambers
Dangerous the style of mine
I got MCs covered in calamine from breakin' out
Kids I'm takin' out all across the nation yo
My point's on, fuck, fuck
Fuck this results in volts of power to shock shit
Like pluggin' your minds into a socket
My rap is toxic
Money you better watch it
I'm more poison than Scott Sox get
My pocket's full of power sacks and blunts to pack
Rollin' like a black Cadillac
And layin' back like a mack as I parlay
Yo every bar take
Niggas sleepin' in days shall be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
MCs who slept for days
Must be swept away
