[Verse 1: L.I.F.E. Long]
Hold up
For a minute. Let’s get it straight. We ain’t the ones
You need to hate. Coming from the left field but it’s still
Right like when I write, touching souls with pure in-
-sight. Everything comes out once the energy is release
Adrenaline filling in what’s missing from the East
West, South, and North coast, touch glasses and toast
Flammable tongues speak words just to roast
It’s freezing. Everybody with their ice raps
Y’all ain’t got platinum plaques to match them [?]
Overthrow you [?] just for feedback. How many
Wigs need to get pushed back before necks crack?
And then you get the point. This ain’t your average, everyday
Joint. Talking ‘bout you’re this and that, get pimp-smacked
Move like rush hour over any track
Swiftly through the airwaves, increasing my street buzz
Shut your shit down quick like undercover fuzz. It’s bugged
How many artists become moving targets?
Who’s killing us while shining in the market? Them the
Murderer. Time’s ticking once you blow
Everybody wanna tip over your boat to overthrow. I’ll never
Let go, keep a firm grip. You know the Number One
Out the five-finger death clique. Leave brains fried
Like an ecstasy, acid, mushroom trip
Start the race, fire the starter pistols, trans-
-form words to heat-seeking missiles catching those
Not aware, blind to what’s living. I’m working on me
Killing the formats from the beginning. Whole world’s
Spinning, Babylon soon fall like Jericho. Trapped
In an Ice Age, watching clouds snow. The chosen
Ones with a mind that’s golden, unfolding crea-
-tivity, promoting positivity, consciousness
Fully awake—no debate—repping the meaning behind
What I create
