lyrics

Guiding ink flows across pages
Pulling object agreement arrangements
Don't worry it makes sense any way it's taken
Irregardless interpretations breakin rules of grammar's basics
This takes bits and pieces of epic thought
Necks get caught like a Wu rapper swept a sword
Them dirty ninja type of spitters, yeah I rep the sort
Listen to Shaquan's shit, get hyped and prep a song
I'm on my grind, treat words like peppercorns, mash tracks
You could say the tater's what I'm steppin on, scratch that
Metaphornography, top the beat and fuck wit it
Get deep into it, my tongue freaks the music
It gets hot and heavy, recorded and played publicly
Exhibitionism is a form of luxury
I'm lyrically lovely, line leap leisurely
Track suited black booted troops move easily

Always making the freshest spit to bless the kids I'm burnin' this
Alternate your progressions and progress to the alternatives

I rhyme time zones, my mind roams timelines
I was on that next shit last time
Best in class, rap laureate the story gets better
Like the second half of stormy weather
When there's a break in the clouds the sky clears
Like ideas when you break'em down, let's try it right here
There's no mirror clearer than a self reflection
It makes minutes into minute perceptions
I'm presenting convected subjects
From an objective stance - the director's vantage point
Has its advantages
Joints get bandaged together when I damage them and
My standard gem shines intensely over the average emcee battlin'
Staggerin' flows will have ya staggerin', say that again
You'll get it twice the first time, alert your mind a bit
Rhynastic verbatics all kinds of flips
I promise it's automatic when jammin' wit a click
Cuz you're standin' in the midst of some magnificent shit

Always making the freshest spit to bless the kids I'm burnin' this
Alternate your progressions and progress to the alternatives

Scuffed kicks and crisp laces
Same outfit as the other day but I'll be ok, it's cool
I'm foolish at times but I'm only playin'
Rule: it happens to everybody, or so goes the sayin'
And I listen to my elders, spit a little iller
Roll the dutch vanilla when I kick wit the fellas
Not a misogynist bias, it's like-minded science
You do the knowledge like household appliance use daily
The government is drunk off giant violent juice
Judges and jurors aren't trying the truth, are they?
My odd ways are aimed at evening scores of years
Tear torn trails and blood stained shores
Laughable laws, futuristic weaponry for primitive wars
Ignorance causes equal significant force
Being put forth towards gains disguised as losses
Incorporated bosses cold lamp in fortress flavor
Pray sayers praise saviors for providing price savers
One shouldn't blame'm, there's guns in the playrooms nowadays
So-called thugs move in coward ways with uncivilized minds
The OGs note the decline so respect mine

Alternate your progressions and progress to the alternatives
Alternate your progressions and progress to the alternatives
Always making the freshest spit to bless the kids I'm burnin' this
Alternate your progressions
Alternate your progressions
