[Verse]
Started with a dollar and a dream
Ended with two pennies and a nightmare
But that’s enough sense to know
Don’t expect the enemy to fight fair
They slept on me for a price, I gave ’em everything but timeshare
We’re sipping Hennessy and wine, cheers!
Feel each others pain but everything is fine here...
Right? I mean you feel me, don’t you?
Don’t fail me now, the fam’s really hopeful
They wanna see me take the city global
But I got different motives, here’s what my MO is
I told them I’m more than a business mogul
Blame that on the school that I didn’t go to
A teacher said it once, past tense
She told me rap was my intelligence.. Half-spent
Now all her students listen to me in her class
So in a sense I’m there now more than I ever was back then
Back then she couldn’t reach me and we both knew
To learn about the world, I see it with my own two
See I learn from every place I go to
And where I lay my head is home, I guess I was home-schooled
Uh-huh, so true, long nights and short days
Long flights and gross food
Hot women and cold brews, chopsticks for the potstickers
A long wind or a short fuse lit
Less talking and more music
Drop gems, when there’s less options it’s more bullshit
Full clips in the pen to educate these fools with
What good’s a king with a fool’s wit?
Spark a flame to massage the brain
Part ashamed, I dream of you
But when I’m awake you aren’t the same
Art imitates you, and this body was made from hardened clay
In light of that I’ve seen darker days
This vision is vivid, I live it
Don’t get it twisted, light this swisher in my ear
Put that shit up in the air, give me spitter of the year
I used to want it, now I’d rather have you give it to my peers
I know, I’m so contradictory
I’m hit-or-miss, I’m this-and-that - use what you want against me
I’m in and out the city
I’m on a mountain with no service on it, I’m out of touch
Stacking paper for this album, yeah I’m working on it
Show me how to slow it down
In any case I’ma smoke a pound
Then I’ll take my pennies saved and throw 'em out
At any rate I’m broken down
But I’ll catch a break when it’s broken down
Probably catch a case and go to trial
The lawyer estimates legislation throws it out
We celebrate every day, FBA hold our ground
Watch the mess you made get swept away and won’t get found
We demonstrate and threats are made
To pepper spray and hose us down
Man without sin, religion without lies
Success without struggle, prison and cloud nine
They seem to go together, I figured it out, why?
It’s coexistence though the difference is miles wide
I’m honestly cold and spiteful
Take my problems, prop them on my shoulder
How they taught me to properly hold a rifle
A prophet with no disciples
Man made his image in God’s when he wrote the Bible
To profit, I know the cycle
Every day I see it, get locked away for thinking
All in the name of freedom, this ain’t a place for a creative being
Praise the people and slay the kings men
Smoking tree out Fiat currency burning down his paper kingdom
I’m not gonna join ’em, I know the way to beat ’em
Operate outside of the system; the way that they competing
Revolving doors, a spiral staircase
Pulling thoughts from airwaves
Anything above my brain’s Sovereign Airspace
The celly’s hot, there’s lots of hearsay
Meet at the Mexican spot with the chips, I’ll bring the salsa verde
I'll shoot a clay pigeon just to stop an air raid
That means the sky is ours ’cause they’ve gotten their day
Dropped Skrill Talk and made improvements since
Just wish I could give you music in its newest tense
Not scared of losing if I grew from it
Shit they’re about to lose the house that I grew up in
Every loss is an opportunity to win
Every ending is potentially where you begin
I’m losing it, about to break out of this human skin
No longer seek the admiration of these foolish men
[Outro]
This is not a goodbye... hell no
This is a moment in time before the next hello
Hello... hello... hello, is anybody listening?
