seen it...believe it

lyrics

Sankofa
The way it calls to me is altering my DNA
If there is a beast at bay, I'll pay the price and be okay
I heard that Jesus saves and keeps receipts in deepest graves
and the snakes of recent seemingly just sneak away.
they fade to places so ostentatious, obnoxious wages.
The long-awaited sedated from trauma lost in hazes.
The dose is just approximated, but I walk with greatness.
My tongue is swollen with thirst, a single drop could save him.
X marking Dalmatian maps deep in toxic mazes.
let's not debate it, the flavor statement on top in Vegas.
But I'd rather be at home instead of shiny prisons.
I should have taken time to listen, now my life is different.
I'm kind of twitching, tired of sitting with this knife that glistens.
The only thing I am left with, desperate times arisen
The price of admission was everything I'd ever have.
such a clever lad carved into his epitaph.

ACT-1
Got a lotta anger toward society, I'm been trying to beat
Anxiety got the pressure rising inside of me
I appreciate every emcee on their grind like me
But never stand in the way of a lion when he’s trying to eat
Back when music excited me, I would write with ease
Now I just squeeze these thoughts out to try and find relief
If I’m a die of this disease, please let me leave my mark
By tearing all of these fairweather rappers apart
I’ve always been in it for the art and the culture
That’s why I got no choice but to doubt the heart of a Vulture
Combating the poachers with the Ultra-Instinct glow-up
These jokers would do anything for a little exposure
Show up on your IG live, faking like they know ya
Show love, but couldn’t quote a line of anything you wrote up
Used to fantasize about how blowing up would be sweet
Now I never dream, shit - I’m lucky if I even sleep
