Morphed into a higher caliber
Excalibur king
Shifted the balance of power’s a miraculous thing
The road to greatest is jagged
Paved with madness sometimes the weight of baggage
breaks the back of the most courageous of masters
We clashing
While fate is laughing knowing how the movie ending
Trying tie up to loose ends meanwhile we lose independence
Move crowds no matter who’s in attendance
Modern day blues in the essence
Prodigal son particles move in my presence
No pharmaceuticals just natural foods, no fools gold
This ain’t a prude show, exploring deep subjects like Cousteau
While Staying true though, the nicest be the humblest ones
Straight shooter when it’s time to pull out, never fumble the gun
Entrepreneurs from the grass roots we juggle a ton
Duffle bags money stretch like giraffe necks who raps best?
I got a knack for it, these dudes is sacharrin
Nothing under the packaging
Another project Legend is back again
I never idol worship I never been for the bullshit
Was built different these religious leaders pimping the pulpit
I’m styling, like Marcus Allen out the pocket for yardage
Breaking thru tackles im spazzing my life’s been rather chaotic tssss
You see the product, from rough to polished tough to demolish
Cuffing the dollars they love that I’m honest
They built up in a fantasy world I’m fulfilling my promise
An electronic lifes melancholic got em yelling in comments
My melanin's the tonic, they bottled it with the cap
I took cap off rapping my ass off and in fact
The past is the past I’m passed that, my mind state is that
You knew the old Po I leveled up I’m stronger than that
This my kingdom, can’t jinx a king out of a win
Statements made with every album I don’t follow the trend
If you got the brain of gold fish then I’m a remind y’a
Who got the purest powder on the block, my drip is finest
It’s pharaoh gamo

The chimera, blowing smoke in front of five mirrors
Got it by my merits these fanatics getting shy near him
Navigate the open world like Skyrim
I’m might inspired them
I take pride from the fact I didn’t have to bride them
Behind the board I’m a tyrant, the modern Iverson
Exercize my options often find me to do the opposite
Archeologist, dig deep to find the meaning of
Life cause I seen enough vice, became a beacon of
Light
For the people I love it’s peace or war
You can get either or, let it slide or even the score
For sure, friends call me Po for short
Wrote a War Report, Edgar Allen how I hold a thought
Fuck who you voted for shout out to those who show support
I go for broke till I reach the top of totem pole
Unholy ghost I Lock it in, that’s my only focus
Lost it once but then I got it back like scoliosis
Edgar Allen when I’m wildin’s when my head is balance
Either you receive the knowledge or get met with violence
Wipe my whole slate clean, I need a better challenge
Who’s better, followed by some crickets with the extra silence
Edgar Allen when I’m wildin’s when my head is balance
Either you receive the knowledge or get met with violence
Wipe my whole slate clean, I need a better challenge
Who’s better, followed by some crickets with the extra silence
Full metal alchemist, shooting metal back at him
I N.ever D.eliver L.ess that should have been my acronym
A mere gamble, can put a whole career in shambles
Cornballs the type to ask producers when they hear a sample
I handful, I handle my handle
I get the bands though where’s it crunch time
My hands on the handle
You can't cancel my program running regardless
Money in secret compartments hidden under the carpet
One the sharpest architects of this concepts is flawless
Till we quadruple the comas solid like truthful promise
Got two personas like a Gemini, insert a gem inside
Still alive beat the odds and percentage of the genocide
I treat death like it’s a friend of mine… seen Death Note?
I write it on the text and manifest the vibe
The raven in the dark watching you break apart
The face you make when you realize you lost is my favorite part

Elusive Dreams

Stacking catastrophes karma catching these casualties
These come as common tragedies crashing against the tapestry
Blatantly flabbergasted, they label me a classic rapper
Clinically spectacular on the daily adapting to
Armageddon consequences and hecklers
Arrogant necklaces molecularly fermenting in
Drama and toxicity drowned my pain inside the symphony
Since my birth certificate found bliss inside epiphanies
Epitomize supremacy came to counter hegemony
From gentlemen to enemies drop gems on em for empathy
Untouchable medicine, clutching what’s left of him
Created a sub culture the mainstream wasn’t accepting them
Friends turn to lovers, lovers to exes, unfriendin em
The precipice gets ever bigger, between friends and benefits
Why so sensitive?
I guess many artists carry this
I want my cake and eat it too
To the top like where the cherry is
Become dependent on digits, that just extended harm
Everybody fending for themselves, no more extended arms
I gave you renaissance, after I died a million deaths
Had to shed my skin, the way I adapted, was cameleonesque
Still sitting on my building steps scheming on the next adventure
I broke convention, in a world that only sells attention
Although my followers rose, still felt more disconnected
They found a cyst right on my neck, wonder if it’s a message
The healthiest drug I ever known, was for me to make some music
The way shit came to me realized I was made to do this
Seen motherfuckers lose they shit in real time
Thinking, what can be so serious we was just supposed to kill time
Blind to future blessings, the present can be so treacherous
That break was just around the corner
You fucked around and messed with it
Shit I been there too
Destiny is a space ship when you board but when you ride
You don’t ask where to
All you can do is have faith

[Jamil Honesty verse]
You couldn’t fit in my sauconies
I’m here to leave a foot print follow my lead
I’m the leader that the hood sent building
With griots on pyramids of Cheops
When niggas used to beat box on liberty and kelox
Soul searching at the book stores book whores in couture
But sat with the realest that’s what I stood for I keep my head moving
In the valley them niggas do you foul and
Smoke a doobie in the alley got with Clyp he got me shooting out in Cali
Mil and Napoleon sick as the omicron
We nasty master the art should never put it pass me move
With the thoughts of Goliath
None of y’all can match me brutal with these tunes
I'm the Apache ruffian rap in the exact key as Michael as a latchkey
Looking out the window it’s exactly
High noon for you to die soon tryna catch zzzzz Honesty
[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
Yo honestly, dispatch the first responders
I lurk inside your conscious like verses from Pharaohe Monch and
Pharaohgamo cognizant compare me not to none of em
The peons gonna hate, but the juggernauts is loving it
We represent a covenant, we keep sacred
They talking drugs in their raps years later
Caught crossing the street naked
This is boss basics, hand gestures ostantatious
Also the greatest my train of thought is gated
A native with the tongue the guns blazing on mundane
Big pun vein, getting dumb brain to numb pain
Bills unpaid, I’ll get to you back later, like a curl activator
On a Mali train bumping some Ali Vegas
A child of nature gave you candy just to acclimate ya
Mostly an alchemist finally caught it like Adam Frazier
My brush hits way deeper than a make believe drug flip
I made believers outta hundred weekly when I bust clips
My skin sun kissed, my kin son gets
Anything he needs in perceived comforts
I feed dumb kids dumb deaf and blind also dumb kids
From dips I hit summits, that bitch keep humming
In the loop Clypto, he knows his shit yo fuck a drum
My voice percussion for the slums
High consumption
Big man on the block, the one you talk about behind his back
But when it comes to the wax, you a mommas boy
Drinking soy milk, I destroy filth
Duck the cops and avoid guilt,
I take posses down, whole teams and collectives
Step to the legend if you got a death wish
I’m answer it.. any age, OGs and newcomers
Alkaline that toxic shit stay removed from us
I’m counting bands you running behind advances
Ja Morant leaner dunk on your bastards, who the champion?

Chasing after serenity
Teas and natural remedies
Those ain’t just hands, these are weapons attached to my extremities
Expanding my hegemony, no hate in my energy
Navigating through the maze like, a modern Franky Beverly
The fans thank me heavily, I supply em with a natural high
Live by respect and loyalty, like Pac and Jasmine Guy
I don’t advertise the fuck shit, come off a grown man in public
Grew up to see a country, turn into a banana republic
I do this only cause I love it, their approval means nothing
Success a have the same dudes that were smiling mean mugging
The more I change, the more I stay same
Putting more numbers on the board still I don’t like to play the game
From being blacklisted to being a name on all the lists
Charm and wit mysterious ways Karma hits
Broke into an armored truck kind of chips
Unapologetic about the shit I earned, motherfucker I’m the shit
Bout time you learn

[Napoleon Da Legend]
Instant gratification, I pull em in like gravitation
The special invited guest with the best accommodations
Never sweat the small shit, I stay away from gossip
If motherfuckers do me dirty, I just weigh my options
Speaking like prophet cause what I say comes to pass
I don't waste time looking back i ran away from my past
When I put faith in my craft, that’s when I ran up cash
Was sitting in the bullpen, now I’m standing at bat
Some see me as meal ticket I was built different
While motherfuckers complained, I just learned to deal with it
I stuck to my guns and I copped a shield with it
Now these fraud Tony Sopranos is sounding real timid
I skipped passed limits… got buzzing in rap minutes
Fans mad, rappers ain’t who they though they catfishing
Suprise motherfucker, James Doakes, y’all can stay broke
This squid games we competing in a game show
[Josiah the Gift]
Lemme put’em on to game tho limit liability have you write off the range Rowing wit my shorty in a kayak life is so beautiful when the scenery Scenic I needed change from the siding to center stage bro niggaz I’ll Tell you leaving the death in periphrial viewing make you corny while They taking advice from a lame tho my lane for the poverty stricken People that made no excuses and turned the rubble to property that They paid fo leather they feeling amazing in it
Jim Kelly wit the fro Meditating to music a knock on the door the villain done sent a selection Got me choosin these Asian bitches fuck wit’em but persuasion Suspicious the hand man got me accusatory because I’m black pussy Thought I was lingering tampering with the business alternated scene Instead of me hanging in chains over water when roper looked it was Han who dropped to the fishes I’m vicious nigga
[SUBSTANCE810]
My black belt contrasts against the bright yellow
Tryna wind down wit these foreign chicks while the night settles
The calm before the storm got me quite mellow
Knock at the door, some nice fellows
Brought the fight schedule
Sippin sake as I meditate
Preparin for this game of death invisioning the heavens gates
The trip up it took several days
Now I’m claustrophobic in a small room where death awaits
You kno how the game goes I play it and accept my fate
I remain calm until the moment that your weapons raised
Snuck out to the courtyard and slayed a guard
I need to see some things for myself it won’t take me long
Woke up in the morning to a meeting with Han
Never knew it be soon that I’d compete wit the claw
Ended up wit ropes around my neck above a pool of acid
Jus know it’s at your own risk when you Enter the Dragon

Peace to the gods
And goddesses
and the angels in the audience
Watch me perform again, look
Water seeping through the window
Still feel the draft whenever the wind blow
No extendo
Just duck hunt on Super Nintendo
Only crescendo
Aunt talking, spilling the info
All that tea turn to coffee
I ain’t really comprehend though
Broke the blinds checking who at the door
Go let them in bro
Just a youth looking at uncle Luke
Like Carl Winslow
They ain’t all Grandpa kids
But they all Grandma ribs
Ten cousins, one crib
You would think thats where we live though
Having hope still
Cereal and oatmeal
Never saw my cousin pops
He probably on that dope still
And i know he never bothered with you
I don’t mind sharing my father with you
Call up AntLive he resolve the issue
You was fresh, i wasn’t fly enough
And fuck clothes
This weed we got off of Schaefer
It kept me high enough
Ask grandma to buy us food
So we could buy a dutch
Nigga we was buying smoke
Instead of buying lunch
And thats why we probably skinny now
Air force ones they supposed to be white
But mines was shitty brown
Chinese food we used to split it down
You know the rules
We still got 3 seconds after it hit the ground
Remember that
You dread the phone call when god call a friend back home
Compartmentalizing pain often we don’t address that homes
Weathering the storm, the mental health is fragile
Zombie like walking around numb death is really gradual
Surviving with odds stacked against you is nothing less than magical
Trusted my gut now I’m passing through, customs international
Friends who used to laugh at you, all the sudden wanna meet for drinks
You had a brain on top on your shoulders
So why did you use your feet to think
The rainy days build character, like urban center in America
Exploited by the system, feeling useless like a Senator
I put in all in music, and grabbed the bags like a treasurer
Jealousy rises when you make it
You gotta constantly check the temperature
Sour friendships can be the end of ya, living while the seasons change
Got a flood of bad news lately carry buckets to receive the rain
Resentments that holding on to could put a hold on you
But when you move on and channel that pain it looks like gold on you
Things you didn’t appreciate in the past start to grow on you
That umbrella can be too brittle when they drop that load on you
Disrupted harmony with melancholy in the passager seats
When sadness heavy making it to the next day is a miraculous feat
Gotta pat myself on the back or else who else gonna do it for me
Motherfuckers getting exposed daily, we already knew was corny
And when it’s stormy we show resilience camouflaging like Chameleon
Surviving thru catastrophic events to one day holding millions

Divine feminine
Fly sly venomous
Mercedes Benz
Out of state renting it
Chakras active
Sonograms flashing
We made music
Together like Johnny Mathis
Shorty looking
Like a Hollywood actress
I caught the volley
Lucky we bought a good mattress
STD tested no condoms
Was requested
By both parties
Both of our bodies
Were connected
Relationship goals
This vacation is dope
Watching the sun rise
As we lay in this boat
Exotic fish dishes
But the clit tastes delicious
Desires manifested
Nah we never wait for wishes
Summer rain role playing games
We cop another name
Which begets an orgasm
One two
And another came
Plans for the present
In the next half an hour
That means more good food
Sex and after hours
We was vibing like Christina Milian
And Lil Wayne and shit
Rebecca Romain and John Stamos
Like Anna Nicole Smith
And that billionaire dude
Who was on his last leg
That type vibes man
What we doing tonight
We camping at home
I love you bitch
But don’t you dare answer my phone
I ain’t sharing fries with you
You better order enough
I got about 50 seconds left
I know you can bust
How much space you need in the bed?
We still newlyweds
Doggie style pull out
Get that bootie wet
Don’t play this around your kids
Be a responsible parent
This is NSFW don’t let your
Boss hear it
I should have warn yall in the intro
I’m a keep it real though
Heads pillow talk
After I push it in the pillow
Can I bring another chick
In the picture?
She almost slapped me son
She took it like I dissed her
But I respect that
She rides for me hard
Josephine queen
With them thick ass quads
Grown folks shit
She goes to work
While I record
Cherie Amour
That’s my girl yea for sho

[Napoleon Da Legend]
Don't rush the roulette
These niggas move like Justin Smoulette
You heard the news yet?
Po and Nej got the quickest two step
Remove the noose from ya neck
These dudes stuck in the Willie lynch
They gave you a look but now you broke
So what did you really think?
Tap dancing for the man
The most famous simp on Instagram
Lost y’a mind for a pair of boobs turned into a vindictive man
An NPC on PCP this ain’t PC
Grabbed his gun soon as he hit the pad like an MPC
Depressive phase full of dark clouds and negative space
No longer the man on stage hecklers is all is his face
All hope evaporated like the cash balance in his bank account
Sitting alone staring at the table with the banger out
Self help don’t help, these gurus selling snake oil
This influencer consumerist society done made his brain boil
1800 273-8255
If nothing else just grab y’a cell and call the hotline
[Nejma Nefertiti]
Maneuver through the spoils of war I been here before
Refuse to break a quarter in fours I ain’t hearing your
Excuses why you short with ya pour no volunteering for
Some useless and performative corpse privateering source
We did it and we got no remorse til our chords are hoarse
Split it down we got dough of course reinforce the fort
Pass it across to Po it’s our court and we holding scores
Slashing at our foes with the swords when they sew discord
It ain’t easy but we do it our way
A power play for freedom otherwise it’s suicide day
Move out our way you just computerized prey
We just tryna blend in peacefully to the human side sway
You emcees scared to say anything outside of the booth
Asking me for advice they see me defying the rules
You close the doors on me player I rely on my tools
And I don’t do behind the scenes drama we not in high school

Pharaoh with the golden mask he so fast
the same pride that caused the cartel of Nino to crash
Old drafts turn to masterpieces
Ask caesar
Gone before the swat team knock for cash seizures
One step ahead of the pack imhotep fact
Smoke a fresh pack I never shit where I rest at huh
How you venting to your enemy what you expect?
That the recipe for death
Look
Life’s real human highlight reel
True to life feel, rocking new Nikes on my heels huh
Black shield I deflect bad vibes
They made a killing at… trying to exploit black lives
Last year they were dissing… now they trinna back slide
I seen it, many a times in my many past lives
Shine, toast to success … more money more sex
Look what the fuck built we so blessed
Multiply the wins
Genius sprinkle MJ with a side of prince
We can’t do it just a little yo we gots to binge
Weight lifted off the chest, living life with strength
And it’s beautiful
Celebrate another day
We celebrate another day
We alive so we celebrate another day
Celebrate another day
Career non-symmetric my catalogue epic
Sell the personality then sell your song separate
Y’all holding on to templates I balance on a palace
Colors turn to violence on the palate stylish
Took risks without knowing the outcome
Praised for the things I’ve done
Not to be outdone
Your Karma can’t be outrun
Life’s a bitch bang the buttcheeks squeeze out funds huh
We ain’t playing the same game
Move different we ain’t saying the same things
Gamo, great king genghis khan in Beijing
Eating baked greens, moving on to great things
And we make dreams come to fruition, everyday we at it
Asiatic with an 80 point average
Carefully crafted Celebrate big
Stepped in the party with some Taylor made drip
Celebrate another day
We celebrate another day
We alive so we celebrate another day
Celebrate another day
Multiply the wins
Genius sprinkle MJ with a side of prince
We can’t do it just a little yo we gots to binge
Weight lifted off the chest, living life with strength
And it’s beautiful

Sharpness, animal instinct Zoologist
Late night flossing with our pieces we proud of it
Receipts for days case they wanna beef with us
Fresh out the oven always got the heat with it
Black sheep in the room not speaking with coons
Got her creaming and now
She dreaming a cheating on the groom
Television interviews on zoom from my room
They try to run game i love when they assume that I’m new
Like Sun Tzu Art of War I factually credit
It’s probably sitting on shelf punk, I actually read it
The grimy gentleman, reminisce I used to have a death wish
Refined extremely selective on who I share a bed with
And in time, y’all got an understanding of me
If it wasn’t biased, I would been a Grammy nominee
Do I care much?
All I know they spin on the air much
It’s bout to get ugly like a model without the airbrush
You love to the hear the story of a hustlers grind
How we paint a vivid picture sway a customers mind
I shine you shine shine
I shine you shine shine
You love to the hear the story of a hustlers grind
How we paint a vivid picture sway a customers mind
We are
I hit my hometown when it’s time to slow down
They didn’t know then I bet they know now
Elevator to the top I ran away from facades
Keeping em honest is a full time job, I’m quite saavy
Graduated but all my diplomas are antiquated
Wrote a thesis over snares quickly became a fan favorite
Strategized plays like presidents at camp david
Champagne popping while these players getting traded
Atlantic Star me and shorty vanish in a car
If you seen it from my vantage point.. you’d want to have it all
Not a sham rather Shamgod, got many plans yall
Soon as I land, I’ll be hitting up the vanguard
JFK to LAX like Gang Starr
Getting texts verifying transactions on my bank card
Moving low without leaking my location
Phone turned off for 2 weeks not leaving my oasis
You love to the hear the story of a hustlers grind
How we paint a vivid picture sway a customers mind
I shine you shine shine
I shine you shine shine
You love to the hear the story of a hustlers grind
How we paint a vivid picture sway a customers mind
We are

Categories above great, cut the dead weight
Create a buzz like when the Mets play
Make it rough for them like leg days
Swimming in shark infested waters I invested quarters
Implemented, what veterans taught us, at night I spread endorphins
My collection is gorgeous my crib is a museum
Like an Ex-machina who the fucks mocking us I put kids in masoleums
I drop Nostradamus speeches
Would have thought it was Nietzsche speaking
Increase the science nonchalantly like
Noam Chomsky on the weekends
I just rest… y’all niggas can “no sleep” yourselves to death
And I challenge all you motherfuckers
To achieve this level of self respect
Lionhearted dialogue, like John McLane in Die Hard
John Coltrane it’s a cold game centerfolds laying in a five star
Seeing these dudes try hard, to imitate what a star like
I’m more like Stokely Carmichael with a cordless mic at a bar fight
Bombing on those on the far right… Black Panther not Marvel kid
So fuck a stat, I’m far more than my accomplishments
Yall a understand it one day
Temptations
Take the cake and I’m a eat it too
Keep the faith never play it safe
These devils die they be bleeding too
Temptations
Take the cake and I’m a eat it too
Keep the faith never play it safe
These devils die they be bleeding too
