So as I vie on

To stay fly within my zone

I would advise my foes to keep they eyes low

Tuck yo ego inside the lines of defined closures

Cause anytime that you try dividing my shine, whoa

Whatever I'm on

Stack bars like mahjong

Until my chips match it and that's when I get my sigh on

Relief for the times that I got my cry on

Suit and tie on

For the paper I'm multiply-on

On the way in

I caught a glimpse of the competition, they cavemen

Outdated and overweight at the weigh in

So once I flay 'em, I flambé em and slay them

No longer pay 'em

Attention or a mention

They descension's

Inevitable, pull the the linchpin

Out from under 'em

Wondering why they shifting

This a slalom

And y'all gotta hit the bottom

I done made it from the rock and the top is my only option

Aiming for the spot of acknowledgement

Fully compen-

Sated for me patiently waiting for y'all to cotch up

I mean, catch up

But even when I mess up

It's still better then 99% of these rappers "Best Of's"

EdVanzd the next up

I say that its my chest up

Don't believe me patnah then watch when me apply the pressure

Ply these niggas necks till they fess up

Nobody's better

Cause I am the exquisite, linguistic, prolific veteran

Plus… mom's told me once, maybe a few times

In the darkest room you find/ that you shine

Get ya' lettuce and bread, salad and crutons

Never lay down for these niggas, you ain't no futon

Don't let 'em play around with your figures, this ain't no Groupon

Tell 'em all or nothin

No frontin

And call they bluffing

Scoff like they ain't worth it

Bombard 'em with A-1 service

Then you overcharge 'em for all of that extra working

That's why I walk it like I talk it, ain't no bullshitting

Standing tall upon my square, nigga pulpitting

Dogs barking, but they softer than some wool mittens

Spark the argument then crawling when that tool spitting

That ain't me though

I ain’t Bobby DeNiro

I ain't off in the the streets with the heat slanging them kilos

I'm a philospher

Operandi in logica

Climbing the monster of economics and conquering

Thinking differently now, I got a wife dog/ the antithesis how, I lived my life wrong

Its been a lifelong

Mission to keep the lights on

So when I write songs

It's more than to excite throngs

At the age I am now, it's starting to make sense

On the stage when I rock crowds at engagements

When they flow what I wrote... it's amazing

They ferociously quote it in open phrases

So I recline back

And let 'em chime back

Then I rejoin 'em and onward until we climax

Is this the sweet life

Is this what we like

Is this what people we think have made it life be like
