(Verse 1: Sway Miller and indietherapper)

All stars game, I’m about to dedicate

Set it straight

When we strike, they gon' have to set a date

Afraid, if I come and even decimate

Got 40 pounds of cash and it feel like body weight

This song is hittin' hard, they bragging the sensation

Call me kryptonite, because I'm bringin' radiation

Only 'The Gatekeepas' is saving generations

The GPS told me that this my destination

Indie on the feature, we're about to set a team

And on this song, we ball like 'Miami Heat'

And burning like it was 'Memphis Tennessee'

We're the best in this league and that’s guaranteed

Disrespectin' us, you better start thinkin' twice

Before we get the mic, and you start gettin' fried

I had to show the real me, I was never this shy

Hermit was sufferin', like he had E. Coli

Now they throwin' shade because we’re in paradise

I’m about to show the meaning of a pimp to a butterfly

Feel like the highest in the room, but I’m scared of heights

Don’t trust anyone, they're all livin' parasites (Yeah, uh, listen)

(Verse 2: indietherapper)

Who's the top 3 rappers, considerin' the freshmen?

XXL as a thought, isn't that demented?

Rappin' like my rent is due but my life is so expensive

Luxuries and microphones led to singles being painted

Album is out soon, got a little friend that chirped a secret

'The Gatekeepas' and 'Emporio Son' have been wicked

The instrumental, I pick it apart, rip out it's heart

And donate a new one, make you think that I'm what Santa gifted

Barkin' trees, talkin' papers, the money pulls me in

Makin' movies, Hollywood, I'm Dwayne with full meaning

Tom Fury with the body shots, girl think she creaming

Don't be telling me about no conversation steaming

Bars ever since 2 PM, my syllables musical

Now, now, let me not slice my rhymes' cuticle

Since this dead voice and flow is comin' off as mutual

Know that we teenagers, should take ourselves more comical

Take a break, let me breathe a little bit

Let me live a little, so what if I spit?

So what if my tone is childish and lackin' wit?

"The World Before My Eyes", "Tha Gatekeepas Volume 1", sit

Bonus track yet it strangle every official one

Heavy topics are ignored here, not in the mood for a tonne

Can't make head or tail, speakin' tongues ain't important

So all you rappers who be doin' the same shit are sorted

Went from 'Midas' to 'U Know' to 'Beeotch' to this

Someday I'll make rage type tracks, yes I'm dragging a diss

Come at me if all you rap is "bitches" and "perkies"

Fuck your music, if you ain't passionate enough to be unique

Fuck your music, if all you do is rap on beats

Fuck your music, if all you do is step on dreams

Fuck your money, your drugs, your hoes and teams

Miller and Hermit and I are future stars who gleam

(Verse 3)

Save the best for last

'Cause the rest done had to park

Dogs all on my wood, I ain't talkin' bout no bark

I ain't rappin' on these beats, I came to do a task

Fast, the IRS attacks, they ain't harsh

Dancin' to this beat, got it groovy, Shah Rukh Khan, huh like Khan

'Cause the flow hard, had to switch parts

Throw it like a boomerang ah

Got it so far

Shoutout to the song that's made bruh

Diss my songs and it's over

Full of anger

More mad uh

Ill, a diagnosis has been noticed

When you hear us, you gon' get tuberculosis

'Cause the way we rhymin' words is way too damn prestigious

Please make to sure to be so cautious

'Cause we know it's so contagious

Shoutout to Caucasians

'Cause we freed from all these chains, uh

Got different lanes, uh

Got horrific names, uh

Got our picture framed, uh

Questions they be askin'

One of em' was askin', how the greatest song completed

I responded, who gon' be rappin' to be the the greatest?

You ain't see 3 teens rappin' like they the greatest

Yeah, freshmen
