[Intro]

We all know him

R8eDR

So tell me

What is good enough for you people?

What is good enough for you?

What do you want from me?

I've been asking myself that for a long time now

Somewhere along the way it all went wrong

And I'm trying to figure out why

Why?

[Hook]

Yo

I used to burn it down but they ain’t appreciate the fire

Now I’m back to make them bow at the feet of they messiah

Thru these speakers how I’m preaching to the choir

After all these sacrifices it’s the time for me to rеach what I desire

The brass ring is thе beacon, I’ve completed what’s required

Had to seek to be inspired just to heat up on these liars

Gained knowledge from the lessons of the higher

So is it a messiah complex or the complex of a messiah

[Verse 1]

As time goes by, an eye for an eye

Anything you ever heard of my demise was a lie

Found the drive, motivated and revived, just to rise

I’m respected as the guy off the vibes I provide

Got reborn as a messiah, I ain’t study for the title

I’m an idol, it’s nothing to make your buddy a disciple

And I always had the heart to wreck

How I’m building masterpieces hitting every mark with all this art I’m like a architect

You feel the soul in my speech like a preacher’s verse

In the booth curb stomping beats till my sneakers burst

Flowing with the reach of Dirk, tried to fade away in peace

But it wasn’t sittin' right now so I’m back releasing work

It’s R8eD, I made my name up in the genre

So if I’m not the king then I’m aiming for his armor

He a goner, 'cause it time I got back where I belong

Been then best a wrasslerapping on these songs all along

[Hook]

I used to burn it down but they ain’t appreciate the fire

Now I’m back to make them bow at the feet of they messiah

Thru these speakers how I’m preaching to the choir

After all these sacrifices it’s the time for me to reach what I desire

The brass ring is the beacon, I’ve completed what’s required

Had to seek to be inspired just to heat up on these liars

Gained knowledge from the lessons of the higher

So is it a messiah complex or the complex of a messiah

[Verse 2]

R8eD, who iller? Gorilla pressing quotes

Twisting the glue up in a session, let me catch the smoke

Striving for perfection, not accepting close

So I’m executing like Bret, straight finessin' from the second rope

Wrote this whole record with a Seth approach

Modified the method up, adding to the effort after checking notes

Knowing clever boast, bring the cheddar close

So I transformed into the man, like Becky in a leather coat

Flair flows, second nature figure 8 it

I'm a wrestling bar role model and n***** hate it

R8ed heading to the banks, bring the boss in

A horseman who theories gon' last a lot longer than Austin's

Cause I was on pause now I’m back for all the portions

Trynna put some plaques up on the wall I ain’t rappin' for applause man

I’m just wrecking it superb

To finally get the respect that I deserve and they heard

[Hook]

I used to burn it down but they ain’t appreciate the fire

Now I’m back to make them bow at the feet of they messiah

Thru these speakers how I’m preaching to the choir

After all these sacrifices it’s the time for me to reach what I desire

The brass ring is the beacon, I’ve completed what’s required

Had to seek to be inspired just to heat up on these liars

Gained knowledge from the lessons of the higher

So is it a messiah complex or the complex of a messiah

[Outro]

Yeah man

Surprised?

I don't know about none of that other shit, man

I'm just here to make my daughter proud, man that's it

R8eD

I know what it is
