Coda - Intellectual

Yeah

I put it on my eight great grandparents, my four grandparents and two parents

I'll make my voice ring loud until I need a new larynx

This past year been a fight to crawl forward, feel like Terence

Cause I won every bout, it look easy from appearance

My spirit's scratched up, haven't had it patched up

Bruises keep coming in, a nigga wanna act up

Leave my former self and climb the ladder, lift it back up

Take a trip away from here and get that nigga packed up

Leave him at the baggage claim

How am I gon' move ahead when all I do is act the same

Vent my frustration to you and I've just got myself to blame

Grabbed my leg and pulled me down to Hell

I took the devil's lane, got some shit to settle, man

I hit the road alone cause I'm owed a

Opportunity to shine brighter like a nova

I am getting out of here and I am taking over

So this go-around is final, nigga, it's the coda

Coda

I can't stand when a nigga is all talk and no action

Even the man in the mirror like son of Joe Jackson

I beat myself up for it, get random bursts of passion

But then it all dies off, I feel dissatisfaction

You wanna keep the peace or better?

Make the rules

You wanna leave that life forever, you got the tools

Kill this mic and make this LP like Run the Jewels

And shine over these dumb niggas and these fucking fools

I can see your attitude, you're losing all your gratitude

That old routine is not for you, you're tired of the platitude

Overworked and underpaid, it puts you in a bad mood

Energy consumed by it, take it as a sign to move

I'm focus on the how and what, ain't focus on the why today

I'ma end this phase soon, I'm taking action right away

Niggas die every day and nigga, I could die today

Crack of dawn, I'm hopping in the whip and I'ma drive away
