lyrics

My jump scares got the vertical of Ronnie Fields,
before the car crash, heart attack tsunami deal
skin suits left upon the blacktop in flaccid puddles
a soggy flash sheet, Nagasaki map of knuckles
whitened in the fracas, been scaring rapper's straight
shout to new fans, the ones who maybe tapped in late
unless it's Kevlar, I drop enough to crack a crate
the magistrate, Serf magician with the magic breaks
some words of wisdom getting sprinkled when I tap the pen
Got me thinking every now and then I’m loud as zen
The sauce delinquents, claiming flavor, I saw them shrinking
Isiah Thomas with the jagged hip, I brought the Brinks in
The rawest linguist slash fossil boss unravels novels
Rap falafel quick to pack a nozzle, track is gospel
So praise if you’re feeling so inclined to note the shine
But this is strictly fun, never on a Kofa grind

These guys are simply copycats, I’m Kirkland signature
Work the verse to injure nerves, sloppy acts with risen fur
Looking for backup, paying a fee for the lines and they act tough
I’ll be playing my tracks from boomboxes duct taped to the back of trash trucks
And that’s up in case you’re wondering what, some of them running amok
Son a thunderous coming to cut the bench to splinters, some of them suck
I’d rather celebrate the lessons from Ls than ever chill with Pensive winners
And break bread with my friends than pose around expensive dinners
Forever ill, building the terminal and the flight control
I remember grabbing a hairbrush instead of mic to hold
But now I have my own complete with studio to make the tracks
Write them upstairs, go downstairs and blaze the raps
Take a moment after runs to bathe in the endorphin rush
Soviets in the ride reminding me of the more than gorgeous stuff
Jeff Spec vocals over the Chaix beats defines deluxe
For sure the finer stuff, inspiration light it up
