Fate Hermit and the Recluse

[Intro]
Survive ruins, was it my doing or fate?
We made it through, we made it through, we made it through
Survive ruins, was it my doing or fate?
Is this pre-scripted or am I doing it great?
We made it through, we made it through, we made it through
(Is it pre-scripted or am I doing it great?)
We made it through

[Verse 1]
In the land of kings, I'm your ace in the hole
Preoccupied with skin, then you're vacant in soul
Young in a haste, you runnin' in place if you chasing a fold
Son, when you earn, value your worth and your paper'll roll
Pro destiny 'til she profess to me, put her faith in the pole
Ain't a page on where the gauges all the ways I reload
Nothing sweet, I couldn't eat from them unsavory rolls
Paid the price on my life to deciph', now breakin' the codes
Book assignments for crooked minors, went straight to the prose
The symbol of grace in genuine place where fake is exposed (Word)
We made it, we made it, we made it, we made it
We made it, we made it, we made it, we made it
These figures is figurative, I'm more literal
Did dirt 'til I had a film, every score original
Living livid, I ain't pivot when it was pivotal
Since Nadel held it stable when shit was most critical
How I'm unique is if I speak it, I have visual
But careful, 'cause everything I say is admissible
