[Chorus 1: Callon B]

Rappers talking shit but I don't hear it

Devil on my shoulder tryna break my spirit

But I got angles that provide me their adherence

Shadow work preserves my perseverance

All these Rappers talking shit but I don't hear it

Devil on my shoulder tryna break my spirit

But I got angles that provide me their adherence

Shadow work preserves my perseverance

It's inherent


[Verse 1: Callon B]

All thеse rappers mirror image onе another what's the basis

I think all your favorite rappers sound so basic

Fuck it even on occasion some of mine say a line or two that's tasteless

I'm just saying when I write a rhyme I take the time to ace it

So Tell me what you know bout dedication

You ain't ever had a passion or the patients

You start flakin as soon as it's complicated

Call it hating you're just not that creative

The fact that your disgracing hip hop culture makes me so infuriated

I traded my whole life to be the greatest

I done spent so many nights on pens and pages

So Please don't remind me I'm caucasian

Cuz I know and that does not mean im faking or I don't deserve the praises

That I get but I get it you think it's appropriation

Or a gimmick but that statement is fallacious

Like I haven't studied up on the foundation of this genre and the underground that made it

Cuz it made me and it's dying so I gotta try an save it

This been weighing on my chest and I'm the humble bee but face it

This stinger ain't for fuckin entertainment

I ain't playin if you in it to be famous

You should back up off your spot before I take it

I can prove that any dues will get a payment word is bond

I been training for the moment that they let me up on sway an

I can show the world exactly why I'm blazin

My Trybe is more than willing to embrace this

GYB and Layer Gang, shit is shapin

To a culture in it self I can't explain it they just see me hit these stages

And amazements written all over their faces

All I needs a beat breakin DJunKi keep replaying

Run it back I ain't finished I have hardly scratched the pavement

I plan to leave a mark that will last throughout the ages

You a mark the fuckin lamest and my cities rap scene is so foogazi

I don't care to say it I ain't scared they ain't adjacent

To the skills that I'm displayin i'm the topic of your conversation B


[Chorus 2: Callon B]

All these Rappers talking shit but I don't hear it

Devil on my shoulder tryna break my spirit

But I got angles that provide me their adherence

Shadow work preserves my perseverance

All these Rappers talking shit but I don't hear it

Devil on my shoulder tryna break my spirit

But I got angles that provide me their adherence

Shadow work preserves my perseverance

It's coherent
