Lyrics

Yeah, now you see what the Lord doin'
Rippin' pages out the book, I had to make the story fluent
Thanks to Marshall I'm sober doing what I enjoy doin'
I'm puttin Chavis Chandler on had to at least pay it forward to him
Yeah, every other day another star is born
And that's to freshen the decaying of the art form
Fuck with my commas, shit will be quick
Got what's in my pocket out of the dirt, filthy rich
I stuck to my promise to momma, stay focused
Double entendre, I'm trying to vocally smoke you, you will be missed
The hokus, the pokus, magician doing tricks in his miserable business
Who spit, loyalty, forgiveness, through biblical scripts
Of morals and wisdom
Painting pictures of this historical war of attrition
Who's just, the dopest, the wokest
I'm 5 years sober
Trauma from my childhood,
Constantly haunts me 'til I finally cry tears over
Sharp as a gauntlet, with thoughts of my side-chick in high heels
Cause I didn't want her
I needed her, though I didn't want her
I'm hot as July, no lie, I wouldn't lie in a sauna
Invest in the truth, don't expect me to buy into moments
They done took the charts over,
So now y'all scared of them shook niggas?
Jamal Crawford couldn't cross-over and sell me them wolf tickets
Best Rapper Alive broadcasts in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1
I'm fly as a dive in the sky in a harness
Anyone alive sleeping on me can die in pajamas
Police call me a threat to society though I am a promise
I am a one of one like I'd say a Isaiah Thomas
You can't fathom thinking deep enough to sink the abyss
You think you Pac, I'm thinking of sinking your Demetrius shipp
Only thing that I can't fathom is why the preacher is rich
How to think in moderation and turn a drink to a sip
I'm private when I fly, I ball out like 'Bron do
You in the game but you sit and coach like Tyronn Lue
Me and my soldiers we just out here mobbing like old Italians
Snatching your homies necklace to rock it with your medallion
Over these groceries, I'm toe to toe with your whole battalion
I hit you with four from this.44 like Hova album
I take lives like banned contracepts
All the contraband I collect is Iran contra esque
Respect the mantra or die at the hands of consciousness
Run up and get left ran down to death on your damn conscious steps
The booze already made me lose I can't go out like I'm Amy Winehouse
The lord graciously still kept me here in a place to be
On the corner like baby Blue standing in timeout
Looking real spiritually aware, pair of pumas on
Looking like I'm aboard a Lear, headed to uniform
I'm so lyrically rare, I spearheaded the unicorn
I was born a one of one
Won't sugar coat at all
The way I'm livin' put me in a great position...
Every time they hear me they say ain't nobody did this, naw
And if they don't, they shit been off
Just listen to the diction in his lyricism
I won't be the fool
They don't be the blue
But every single show
They hand out like a ohm
I'm all ready, paid my dues, in weddings, uh
Well, if I said they name, they still won't know
So, I won't waste my time on you
Speakin' on the level that ya never on
No way they hatin', so incredible
My writings on the wall, and you are so illegible
I'm invincible, sleepin' on me, I'ma Stay Woke
Yeah. yeah, yeah
