Souled Separately

[Verse 1]

I'm right here, don't nobody notice the noise I'm making/

Cut with a scalpel 'cause the music needs a facelift/

Take this and call your dogs off one wrong step and fall off/

After the day I'll stop speaking, somebody said I'm all talk/

I'll take a tall glass of content, little splash of fame/

Burn the last 10 songs i wrote wore my ego by the flame/

We buy the same records, but interpretations are different/

I listen with all six senses minus the stench of incense/

Separate spirit and flesh like the back of a promo sticker/

Then discard the latter, 'cause the inside's what really matters/

Matter of fact, I state the facts and they don't know how to react/

After we battled last week, you was asking for your snaps back/

The trash picks up on Wednesday, put the can out Tuesday night/

It mixed up my split personality, type living his life/

Kids and a wife, dirty diapers, kiss goodnight and pay the rent/

Step out the corners where rap lives, start to make a dent/

Repent for the sleep I'm losing and check the checklist/

Can't believe I'm supposed to save the world all before breakfast/

Well, that's the curse I'm blessed with, I guess it's cool/

Block the exits and take the rest to school


[Hook]

I was here before you saw me, making it happen before you noticed/

Taking the road less traveled, eating table scraps from the hopeless/

I know it's where it's at 'cause it's the only place I know/

Sole purpose shake the world, break it down to watch 'em grow


[Verse 2]

I've dipped in extravagant wears, right down to the way I style my hair/

ManCHILD and dust are the envy of pretty crews everywhere/

I rock new balance 803, sponsorship will get back to me/

I wore the same pair for 3 years, no, they're not bound contractually/

Dastardly cunning, double knotted they cover my socks/

Which by the way are tube variety, i know you like them a lot/

I drive down the block in my jeep and it's never been washed/

System bangs, busted speakers, but the music i play is hot/

All the pedestrians stop and watch hear the treble and they dance/

I jump out of the window feeling my army green cargo pant/

They're issued standard, my t-shirts an iron-on transfer/

We made two to rock at our shows, just me and my crew/

I got a little beard, or did i just forget to shave today/

Got 5 colors of the same ball cap and i think its phat/

Some might feel I'm over exaggerated just to say this verse is stupid/

How do you think it sounds when you do it? It's like that


[Hook]

I was here before you saw me, making it happen before you noticed/

Taking the road less traveled, eating table scraps from the hopeless/

I know it's where it's at 'cause it's the only place I know/

Sole purpose shake the world, break it down to watch 'em grow
