lyrics

Sankofa
energy was great, but what was missing was bars
the word salad slap them silly seeing Michelin stars
Mission to Mars smooth movement, prove it, Mr. DeBarge
The only bracelet on your wrist comes with a click and it scars
we show you where the BIG wall is, after Christopher starts
see we're bringing you the dis to regard, so disregard
long distance John Grisham prison visit alarms
Bridget sitting in Virginia with her vision bizarre
slipping in Ferraris hardly christen glistening cars
we built the masterpiece, they swarm around to rip it apart
what's at stake yields the gristle with some Sisyphus scars
they dangle diamonds trying to blind us, wicked tricks and the charms
do it strictly for the ones, don't need permission to start
persimmon pulp juice dripping slick I'm tickling hearts
meticulous with brushes, bells, and whistles and barbs
my soul gripped by a griffin as I swim with the sharks
time ticking sinister participants chart
thirsty serpents sipping liquor in medicinal jars
Snake Plissken tape hissing whistle at guards
Preacher lost another sinister, original parts
Anthony Mason, John Starks, catch the Knicks at the Gard’
can't forget Oak and Ewing, brick by brick it was hard

ACT-1
They keep begging me to ease up with the pressure
Every album released create a deeper connection
Armageddon whenever I leave the session
Mirror to society - vampires see their reflection
Your entire catalog is indigestion
Repeating over and over -
Heart burning your sessions
Your festering on social media sending them shots
them tough thumbs got you bums looking Twitter toxic
See you out now you switching topics
catfishing your listeners, in person got a different posture
I’ve been winning, riding high just the same as you
But everybody at the top don’t have the same view
There’s a difference 'tween the penthouse and the project roof
A difference between wagyu, and gabagool
I use their clocking and pocket watching as rocket fuel
When you live in your truth, liars are not amused
I been perusing the playlists
When algorithms start clicking, you fakers feeling famous
Do me a favor, don’t do me no favors
The game is plagued with a sameness
Me and sankofa are here to save it
When I die, the throne is permanently vacant
When it comes to certain levels of greatness
There’s no replacement
