lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well this came as a surprise, baby /
rewind time so you can say he saw the way the tides rise, baby /
Actual lines in my mind make me /
wonder if I'm okay or just channeling your demise, maybe/
Sometimes I feel like the scene playin,
just saw Charm open for Face and next day said people was hating/
My first thought was just to let em hate /
But here I am mad at the same thing /
I maintain that with this pen I'm out my dang brain /
I snatch souls when I string rhymes like Shang /
Tsung at a kickback lookin for Liu Kang /
this (Boon) of punches is (ed)ucational really /
People I hold near and dear /
Turning into others that's undercutting the city /
People got my number but hearing they in their feelings...

[Verse 2]
I don't know if listeners can relate /
‘Cause when you real, your authenticity can come off as fake /
that's the deal and honestly that's the risk that you take /
whenever you extend your hand and try to link and be great /
but some people you dap, they just pretend to be great /
to leech off you, talk trash, get a laugh and jump states /
or even tell you that spitti’n raps isn't the wave /
like he ain't smokin his life away, doing the same thing /
as underpaid as interns that's working for college credit /
Least I got a buzz, nigga, notoriety present /
You cant even get ya fam to cop an ounce via debit /
Hoping the best for you, honestly wishing' blessings' /
Hope you don't get swung on for something you pressed send on /
and placed all on the web and someone comes to address it...

[Verse 3]
I don't know what you take me as /
or see the intelligence that he has /
went from rags to- well, still at rags /
but cut from a different type of cloth, a different fabric /
I’m not a hero but (Shock)ing people that's got the (Static) /
No (Vergil) either (my mask is off) and I'm lookin' past it /
But keep stuntin' like Evil Knievel and see what happens /
it'll be tragic, hope people ain't about that action /
I'm slightly off, I'll see you crashing and bust out laughing/
and clapping while everybody else screaming and gasping /
Like you ain't try to to jump thirteen buses and smashed /
into the eleventh or twelfth, I lost count when he passed /
me in midair, but at least you died chasing your passion /
I swear I'm triggered now, you dont wanna see me active...

[Verse 4]
I asked you nice not to mention me, nigga /
Plus your music not nice enough to mention me, nigga /
No names, I ain't giving you attention free, nigga /
Don't get mad ‘cause I do everything you do better /
I get high off these lines that I write /
You get high off supply you overstocked and couldn't move the next night /
Failed drug dealer, why the hell you givin’ advice? /
you couldn't sell it if you halved the price /
couldn't see me in this booth /
even if my flows was half as nice /
go back to boosting RCA televisions from Frys /
least you got something to take for your time /
I swear I'm tryna… /
..push peace love and positivity /
but these idiots keep pushing me /
it's stupid to even look at me /
if you ain't got the lyrical ability slash agility /
to even ride a beat properly, nigga, don’t talk to me
