The Final Cut - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Kid Optimism]

Today marks the third year I've been at this

Composing compositions with zero distractions

The thought of doubt? Not even close to a fraction

Music is the world on my shoulders, I feel like Atlas

I've been working hard

I've been searching for God

Searching for purpose, never give into industry frauds

When life is weighing me down, I take it as a lesson

Was thinking 'bout defining moments as an adolescent

Pain is the enemy, unacceptably detrimental

My verses are therapeutic in every instrumental

I make 'em move with this momentum

The only weapon I acquire in armageddon is holy venom

I'm right where I'm supposed to be

Negativity never come close to me

I belong here no matter what

And I swear it's the final cut, go

Save yourself from this world's dismay

Fill your heart while this music play

Even through your darkest days

Find the light, don't be led astray

The devil will never know what to do with me

Diminish him with my overpowering eulogy

I'll never sign with him as a sign of mutiny

Rebelling against the authority trynna screw with me

Say what you wanna say

Fueled by your honesty

I am not a victim of society's hypocrisy

From the start, some said I would fall like economy

Hate always be my motivator, so I elevate

Imagery so vivid, it's imprinted in your memory

Cutting hearts opened with this lyrical calligraphy

Nominate me for the modern day monarchy

This is how I feel, this is confident delivery

Tell me how this ain't a gift, but a curse
