[Verse 1: C-Ray]

If the sound is vicious

Let's get down to business

Just found my shit list, bunch of clowns and bitches

Ever since I hit the ground I've been around the sickest

And took a mile from that H, slapping down a sentence

People say they need shit fixed but never found the wrenches

And never buy em, all those inquiries they find offensive

Charlie Percocet, my worst your best without decision

Known to write the verse to death and circumvent your foul intentions

Known to hang with some of the sickest niggas ever heard (BRAIN)

Dropping some of the hottest albums there will ever be

(let's go)

Puffing some of the dankest ganja they could ever serve (low)

Show my soul through bouncing from protools hope it sets you free

And let the thunder pound, the underground my following

Up in Under Armour I don't fuck with y'all designer jeans

Used to do construction with the homies, made a lot of green

Profit, used to petal crack for pop that shit was not the dream

Be wiser now

Put them vices down

Live yo life, don't pay the price for how them prices sound

In my day I was so foolish, thought I'd swipe the crown

Now you in my way, I'm moving through you like a rifle round

There's nothing left to do to em but lie em down

Utilize the time and cause I've got the time to try it now

Certainly, this game is full of babies

Fuck this nursery

If you don't feel the same, go do your thang

Cause I'mma work for me


[Hook: C-Ray]

I don't have a mess for you to see

And never did I ask for this

I have to get some sleep

I've been at it, fighting madness, trynna handle this disease

I would never lead you off the path, get at me if you need

The ingredient


[Verse 2: C-Ray]

Don't be concerned with my maneuvers homie

Trust I'm chilling

It's been my dream to be producing, know we love the feeling

I'm all the way up from the roof, they told me fuck a ceiling

How I'm ahead I take from future homie, Russell Wilson

And you know where I done been

Trynna bring them dollars in

Lots of love, lots of grins

Me and my Apollo twinned and my twin in me

Regé-Jean, history

Cold piece, Mr. Freeze

More weed, Hennessy

And I'm low-key in the trees with the G's with the crease and the piece get to cease

Know that we sick diseased, hit your knees

Bitches please

No, known peace, hit the streets

With the teams, split the fees

They looking for sometime to try to fuck with us

It'll be me and just five of my niggas

Everyone has to go down is the premise

Look at [umbhaco?] the sound is too [finis?]

Chatas and I was a pal with no blemish

Back in to hit with the rack and no tennis

They always knew I'd come back as a menace

Brain, brain, brain


[Hook: C-Ray]

I don't have a mess for you to see

And never did I ask for this

I have to get some sleep

I've been at it, fighting madness, trynna handle this disease

I would never lead you off the path, get at me if you need

The ingredient


[Verse 3: KXNG Crooked]

I started this journey years ago in the past

My future knew that I was ahead of my time

Did it for passion, not the pursuit of cash

Some say I'm one of the greatest ever to rhyme

Used to be

Flat broke homie, my credit declined

Truthfully

I'll admit, I've committed some federal crimes

Beautifully

I danced around that shit like Gregory Hines

Musically

It changed my life with a couple incredible lines

Some of the most incredible lines ever designed

Tougher than leather and pleather combined

Impeccable grind

Predator rhyme

Said I would die

Devil's a lie

Walked in a BET cypher with some of my slaughter disciples and severed his spine

Fed in his prime

Never resigned

I'm, what?

Not in this industry just to fuck around

Hate or shift the paradigm like marathons we run the town (we run the town)

C-O-B we shut em down

Artists with no passion, give em a old-fashioned throat slashing and ask him to say so now

Nigga
