L.I.F.E. Long ft. Poison Pen - “Flow Omnipotent”


[Emcee(s): L.I.F.E. Long and Poison Pen]


[Producer(s): Grand Fortune]


[Verse 1: L.I.F.E. Long]

Yo, let me

Spaz out, speak my clout, show y’all what it’s really

About. For what it’s worth, yank down your skirt

Exposing bitch personas, leaving feeling hurt. Me and

Pen the garbage men putting in work, taking

Out the trash like you didn’t know. Stronghold

Cock back the mic, let out flow, slow your roll

13, we’re holding down the pavement, hypnotizing

DJs ‘til they play this


[Verse 2: Poison Pen]

From the basement to the staircase to the

Stoop to the studio to space to the whip

To the telly to the [?] to the cradle to the

Grave ([?]). I ain’t want to make it that way

[?] a jake, so I’m just

Praying away that jake don’t take me a-

-way. So close, but don’t take me today

The mic’s my heartache and pain, so we party

The sorrow away (Away, away)

[Hook: L.I.F.E. Long and Poison Pen] (x2)

If y’all started, then we gon’ finish it

Murder the track and leave no witnesses

Pen’s a goon and L.I.F.E.’s so militant

Stronghold emperors flow omnipotent


[Verse 3: Poison Pen]

Bed-Stuy

That’s me right there. QU, that’s he right

There. Stronghold, our sons and shit. We do

Everything, from goons for hire, spitting

Fire to the [?] and production tips. Bang

Now you know we stay dumping. It’s Lékan, it’s Ni-

-geria if you say something


[Verse 4: L.I.F.E. Long]

Rolling, thrashing production

Eruption as my introduction snuffs your ears

When I’m lunge-punching. We’re live in your function, crashing

Parties in convertibles, burning exotic herbals ‘til I’m

No longer seeing vertical. Stronghold still victo-

-rious. Our position remains dominant, superior, all-

-wrecking force. We’re humble but confident


[Verse 5: Poison Pen and L.I.F.E. Long]


[Poison Pen]

Consonants and vowels. Don’t get disemboweled

Pissing liquor out, Henny, Guinness stout


[L.I.F.E. Long]

Sabotage, we’re sasquatch, stepping in the mosh

Pit. Phenomenon: omnipotent dons ready to spit


[Interlude 1: Poison Pen]

Yeah, if we can’t spit with you, we’ll spit on you, motherfucker

[Hook: L.I.F.E. Long and Poison Pen] (x2)

If y’all started, then we gon’ finish it

Murder the track and leave no witnesses

Pen’s a goon and L.I.F.E.’s so militant

Stronghold emperors flow omnipotent


[Verse 6: Poison Pen]

Cyphers, battles, indie wax, pickups

Spit hot, video, promo tour, album flop

Get dropped—karma’s a bitch. Now you’re back

Where I was: index wax, battles, and cyphers


[Verse 7: L.I.F.E. Long]

We move crowds, spit round, split

Wigs. The jig’s up—don’t quit your dead gig

This ain’t built for most. Yo, y’all talking toast?

Serve you quick alongside [?]


[Verse 8: Poison Pen]

Yeah, yo. Eat

Their food, I come from a greasy block

Where the ratchets and [?] are

Survivors I believe we are. That’s why I wear

My beard just like ZZ Top


[Verse 9: L.I.F.E. Long]

Still on the block, Kennedy

Fried Chicken spot in Flatbush, they call you

Bloodclot, the scene’s always hot. Stay on track

Maintain Brooknam to France

Stronghold, we stay spitting flames

[Hook: L.I.F.E. Long and Poison Pen] (x2)

If y’all started, then we gon’ finish it

Murder the track and leave no witnesses

Pen’s a goon and L.I.F.E.’s so militant

Stronghold emperors flow omnipotent
