CAGED LIGHTNING - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I was born where the sky kiss the concrete veins

Hope drippin’ from the cracks like unspoken pains

Fists tight, dreams fight in a cell with no keys

A prisoner of ambition, but the warden’s my grief

The wind carves riots through my ribcage walls

Every heartbeat’s a drum, every thought’s a brawl

Chains ain't just gold, they the ghosts of the past

A future so bright, but the shadows still last

I learned to run before I could crawl

Built a wall higher than the roof they installed

Smoke in my lungs, but the fire’s within

Lightning caged, but the storm’s under my skin

Damn… make a

Beat switch

Like the sky split, thunder gon’ preach quick

Mirror shattered, slashed with a sickle syllable splash

Pivot past pitiful pitfalls, a cynical clash

Criminal cash crippled my critical path

Difficult math, minimal stash, typical wrath

The pinnacle’s rash, clinical dash, physical crash

Intervals flash, lyrical smash, visuals clash

Digital past, cynical laughs, biblical wrath

I'm a chemical blast — no shackles, no mask

Battlin’ demons, adrenaline feedin’ the venom

The venom is bleedin’, I'm speedin’, repeatin’ the feelin’ — I get 'em

No ceiling can limit the spirit, I spit it, I kill it

I'm willin’ to split it, the minute I’m in it, I'm drillin’ the critics

They wanted me silent, but violence be stylin’, I'm wild and defiant

Reliant on sirens, my mind is a tyrant, aligned with the science

The climate is silent, I’m flyin’ like pilots, colliding with giants

Denyin’ compliance, I'm fryin’ alliances, eyein’ the islands

I'm vibin’ with lions, I'm pryin’ the silence, inspirin’ the riots

I'm high as Orion, designin’ horizons, ignitin’ the diamonds

Dividin’ the liars, I'm iron, I'm fire, I'm mindin’ the wires

Applyin’ the priors, defyin’ the buyers, rewritin’ desires

Combinin’ the choirs, the sirens, the tyrants, the violence, the science

I'm grindin’ for triumph — my silence is dyin’, my mind is a siren
