[Verse 1]

Token be the newest out

Music’s juvenile, but you the student who gets tutored now

Dudes assume I’ll use the crown like a root canal

And Massachusetts proud

I’m the weapon of mass destruction

Bush was fronting like he knew about

Who want to fool around?

I’m full of rounds to shoot you down my tongue licks shots to the public

View the sound, hip hop is now coming

Run circles around you till I’m losing pounds like pickpockets in London

I stand out when I’m styling out

Outstanding, I stand up so they understand when I astound the crowd

Confident enough to go bar for bar and sound for sound

Just don’t sweat the technique, you’ll fuck around and drown

Each contest today I’m coming hard for chains back to back like slaves on Amistad

You’re plain like kamikazes, you crash

See, I’m back

Token is the change this game needs to have


[Chorus]

I’ve been working all day, I’ve been working all night

I ain’t even leave the room once

Y’all would’ve thought I got scolded by now but we only allow positivity around us

From the ground up, I’ll be at home building

No limits, we define our ceilings

Love is inevitable and hate is unavoidable but ask them hip hop heads how they feeling

We good


[Verse 2]

The flow so slick

Those old foes who chose to throw blows slip

’Cause Toke’s flow so cold quotes froze most home floors those foes go in

“Oh shit! Yo it’s the bro that the homies were posting

I noticed the logo and most of his quotables over my dome but don’t give no shits”

Low and behold if I’m holding your focus I’m also controlling your soul that is so any moment you don’t give me focus your soul will opened and broken in two

I’ll rip out your soul, use it as the soul for my shoe

And kick your scrotum with boots

Nah I ain’t older than you, still you know I could

Be out-rapping you without rapping, you just know what’s good

A genius mentally, needs my victories

He could speak and reach the peak infinity

Breathe and see it seep beneath his feet, physically

Each enemy sneak dissing me sees misery

Bleak dignity, each speech he leaks be the epitome


[Chorus]

I’ve been working all day, I’ve been working all night

I ain’t even leave the room once

Y’all would’ve thought I got scolded by now but we only allow positivity around us

From the ground up, I’ll be at home building

No limits, we define our ceilings

Love is inevitable and hate is unavoidable but ask them hip-hop heads how they feeling

We good
