Never been ya typical, an author from the jump/
Yall were just unaccustomed to the presence that I brung//
island where im from, birth geniuses and savages/
Simon Phoenix out the ashes withstanding all the ravages//
Of time grind capitalist mind tainted righteous/
Rubber spine antagonists back bending like tobias//
Beecher for every o.z.,/
Shove my saucony's in ya small intestine for testing me o.d., like u know me//
Familiarity breeds the inability to anticipate/
A false sense of security that i fully take//
Advantage of, see the bs behind the cameras/
Rap thespians peddling imagery,but not man enough//
To take stand against status quo, never falter in an attempt to alter the faulty mentalities that keep us low//
Im a toss up between enforcer and enlightener/
With the charisma of minister transformed into a sniper//
In this zombie apocalypse, bro this ain't calculus/
Its simple pick a side and practice your slurs derogative//
In cadence with your trigger finger, bet I bring abomination/
Or the equivalent when amplifying my mediation//
commoners call it spitting/
Portray opposition they screaming for you like Ricky when every line is hitting//
like the shottie pointed out the passenger/
Sent to dishevel organs and test your stamina//
Till you ain't standing up, crushed like watermelons near gallagher/
Lineup unstoppable stagger my shooters so Take that data//--
just a man, with a certain set of skills/
Human frailties, past mistakes, youthful innocence killed//
bitter the pill to swallow, acknowledging all my failures/
But now I see clearly the lessons that the pain availed us//
Don't wait up, I'm focused every,/ night dreams incendiary/
Forge the real out the imaginary merely theory//
slept in places that others would deem scary/
Now i bottle that conviction in compositions of fury//
Presently this mission solo, nobody here to defend me/
Inspired by ancestors, predecessors who suffered daily//
But struck back deadly the come up predestined consequently/
lineage on my spine carried cuz honor's never heavy//
Weighing my words with caution, cuz the weight could balance nations/
sink the ship of an interloper attempt to restrain it//
Ignored too long, words fester turn to poison in containment/
let my actions do the speaking, testament to every statement//
