Been Had:
In collaboration with Jordan Murphy
Let’s air something out,
I, tend
Not havin’ polished out lyrical mastery-
My inability to seamlessly
drop the sickest metaphor
is like a drop of water
in a bucket...
I’ll put my pen through hell,
actin’ all high-
Naw mighty as a sword
Wut reason do,
I have to be all
METAMALE
for?
I, can’t turn my back
(Be talked out)
facin’ the music,
is better than
trustin’ by word of mouth
Life’s carousel
is not done
playin’ wit me-
YET
taken the plunge,
I ain’t
a pinball machine
getting tilted
I’m
DISCONTENT
I, mean
I’m disconnected
Actively wilted:
uncontested, unimpressed, unmatched
I’m hopin’ in these bars;
as sober as judge
SUBTLE
I, mean stumble
with sending signals
to my brain
as my hands tremble for the inspiration
signing away my rights, like an autograph
Splashier of fountain pens
on a canvas like Jason Pollock
like an alcoholic
Last call’n
throwin’ ashes like Poseys’
on the old me!
Stayin’ put
I gotsta
(Take everything you got)
Beat me down to size
Beat out my brains
blow by blow
Beat into my head
STEP OFF,
dose of disrespect
Been had
Step outta the way
Mi casa
(My home)
is in the winners circle;
my influence is endlessness!
