[Medhane]
Swear this shit be second nature, tea and echinacea
Walk to where the rhythm take us, niggas copping papers
I keep one inside the chamber put in constant labor
Ain’t forgot the favors
Shit was complicated
Contemplating on the changes
Deaf to niggas phrases
Death be in our faces
All that fear and hatred never made it over here, too prepared
Know the gold i hold it near
Wicked western hemisphere
Hard to find the heaven here, send a prayer
Climbing several stairs
Closer than the shit appear, like the window mirror
Upper tier clear, guild growing like my hair
Twist it up, i know that this shit in flux
New bandages to heal my cuts
This shit scarred me up
Know we hardly done
One
[AKAI SOLO]
One
I love being wrong about people
When they’re better than I give em credit for
Down and out
Forlorn over serpents in sheep’s clothes
The jiving and chucking kind
Bricking their free throws
Tres feet away from the rim
Shots miss and ricochet
Fleas scatter when fiends finish their flasks
It was all jokes
So we all laughed
The ways that we cope
You caught firmly up on a sticky
Glue trapped in the past
Even Jack found peace
So what is you doing
I don’t conceal my horns no more
My morals parallel to my goals
They don’t intersect
Warding off interference
Insignificant like insects in the crib
Sometimes I find myself
Letting the roaches live
To my betterment or detriment
Well I guess that’s to be seen
You see these streets we reside in are mean
If you tryna eat
You gotta gather then prepare the feast
It ain’t nothing but a regular occurrence to miss a meal in the East
This not complaining dummy
I’m just informing those who genuine
Never preferred performers
God eager to judge me
I tell her
Prepare a scale
As I sit back sip ale
Spark something up that lingers in the air
Cats lost bark a lot
But the type of stride reveals who scared
If the confidence lacking
That spirit under maintenance
Heart under new management
If they threw you in a den of fiends for your dreams
Could you handle it?
Could you fend them off?
They not seizing me
I’m no kind of prize
I’m not having it
Humbly after mine
Be wise with my inventory
You used all you had
While all I relinquished was half
