Truth so heavy
it could rumble the earth
I dunked paint brush up
in a bucket of words
Ain’t Nothing interrupting
the urg
Might cut you worse than
unguarded love when it hurts
Try to hold it in and
my muscles will burst
Do an Incredible Hulk
through my shirt
A verse make an old lady
jump up in the church
Pass a plate around
pulling bucks out her purse
Foremost and first
my hunger and thirst
Is not for no blood-stained paper
but my love to be heard
Reap what I sowed in the earth
Now watch
what emerge out a soul
that’s disturbed
Leaning on the very last
nerve of you scary ass herbs
Fake thugs and arrogant nerds
Fuck no homo you a no hom
owning old grown
Unsigned chump month
behind on your car loan
You got balls looking down on me
Or got a mirror on the floor
trying to find Ali
And dressed flyly
but so afraid to soar
You’re all dressed up
and got no place to go
And so play a roll
there’s no hope of living
More like go broke pretending
Your whole image is imagined
I manage
Low expectations high standards
Hip hop is the legacy
of the jazz kings
Kick rocks
I’m one of the last standing
Last thing I do is overstate
the obvious
Mainstream poppiness
underground sloppiness
Dumbed down thuggery
and pussy hungry consciousness
Revolution for sale
Greedy communist
Seinfeld rap your show about nothing
Poetry played
it’s all about production
Trying to get placements
play like you’re famou
Ain’t added greatness
to nary a playlist
Take this bitch take offense
Or if it don’t apply
let it fly say amen
Time’s up on y’all
posturing imposters
I don’t give a damn
if you’re starving
or copping Oscars
Out here grinding or floss
in your ivory towers
I don’t give a shit about
your pants or how you rock em
I ain’t bitter or backpacker
or conscious
Just want y’all the fuck out
my ear with that nonsense
From the office of
Ali and Jake and them
If you feel me raise a hand
say amen
