Verse 1 (Jvly38!):

You ain’t talking common sense, your skills featherweight

The letters scrape the sentence laid the king sat in the emirate

The skill ladder, I’m still height you liars don’t need me to demonstrate

Why they separate the green from the gold, to you no venerate

The lessons made in stone just to hold the pen all straight

You kennel made, I mandate lessons to the lesser state

Have meetings with all my elders, still can’t even eat my dinner plate

Thinner, my stomach starts to turn, that’s the reason I should’ve never ate

I’m the goddess rocking new flesh

The tears tear my tissue, issues sitting tryna view death, within this new breath

I knew less, I know more, your minds deliquate tryna make fruit best

Out of a tree that’ll harness the pain carried by you next, the few steps

It takes to the tree will breathe the new legs

New roots spin from the truth, silk of these, spewed webs

Toothless the youngest of youth held out the frownless mirror

Bound to sliver, serpents say they know you as a friend not a fountain critter

Verse 2 (Lil Figurative):

Most of my memories are blurry vignettes at best, sub-

Consciously saved flashes in the pan, condemned the rest to death, December

Snow become December rain, my reaction at best subtext

Endlessly trudging forward, every shaky, labored breath a step, when you

Gonna clean your room? Whenever people wanna go inside it

When you gon pay attention to the weather? Whenever we can control the climate

You compare yourself to Goliath, you miss the point entirely

I spend every moment working towards that pinpoint refinery

I switch between walking on hot coals and thin ice, y’all

Only been nice, your long roads and big fights was all

Spectacle, talk cold and spit fire? you don’t know these chemicals

Soon enough you’ll realize the top is a lonely pedestal
