These false gods scared mention the name like Voldemort
Cut from that raw couture clothe spitting culture raw
Bulking up some more soaking up the force
Now they talk him up like bronchitis I'm coughing up the sauce
Quarantine status make them open up the stores
While they try to block them but ain't no holding up the boss
An entrepreneur since I was old enough to talk
Every project I showed them what's up I'm so above the norm
Child of the TV raised me and what's really crazy
I waited patiently and gave mad shit away for free
To these one dimensional artists I speak in H.D.
Expand my wingspan got the reach of KD
Kirkland TK, everything you can think of, I'm been there
Countries overseas I never been tho I still trend there
I never blend with the flock but I'll send to the doc
Broadcasting to a million live Cash App pinned to the top
Black Taj Mahal eating Calamari bumping Shalamar
I shall accomplish everything I set off like a Molotov
Maladjusted style encrusted with a diamond's luster
Life's a bitch and I plan to pimp her kid I doubt I trust her
(I don't)
It's just another day in my life
Anonymous in the daylight but I'm famous by night
Taking trips and getting paid just to say what I like
Give u the full picture I'm painting it right you can you see and
It's another day in my life
Anonymous in the daylight but I'm famous by night
Taking trips and getting paid just to say what I like
Give you the full picture I'm painting it right you can you see and
Product of the proletariat these politics will bury ya
Drank so much of the bullshit my tolerance is scarier
Models up in the Marriott bottles in the area
Living that Pan-American they probably plan to marry him
Phantom of Opera I send them to sanatorium
Root of my origins
From where there's famine and Malaria
Cannons we carry them otherwise humanitarian
I bet they see the difference I split it like a caesarean
You know the flag I hold staring like I'm a bag of gold
Catapulted by the baddest quote over the status quo
Seeing dudes who used to be popping but now they chapter close
Black Al Capone in Acapulco maxing out my goals
Shoot for the stars smell my roses like I'm Axel Rose
Stash the collateral came in the game and cracked the mold
Basically I'm better u can say it safely
I run laps around these dudes any debate is crazy
Big Pun told you that every millennium
A kid comes down on planet earth and starts killing them
Nas said we'll all see who prophet is so let's see
The question is when I'm gone who gonna be the next me?
(Who really want it?)
It's just another day in my life
Anonymous in the daylight but I'm famous by night
Taking trips and getting paid just to say what I like
Give u the full picture I'm painting it right you can you see and
It's just another day in my life
Anonymous in the daylight but I'm famous by night
Taking trips and getting paid just to say what I like
Give you the full picture I'm painting it right you can you see and

Shogun with the mask on for Covid and the murder
Kill a bird with one stone my city know the burner
Thought I seen the devil fly, alcohol level high
This legacy I left behind I’m making sure I never die
Headbanger Bruce Banner brute slang voodoo
Rest in Peace Guru Gang Starr trademark is Zulu
Shaka Pretoria warrior that’ll clock ya
Then two hours later at a banquet dressed proper
Clean up the murder scene then clean up nice
Seen ya backstage, whole team seem up tight
Black sheep bad seed up in the mezzanine Desert E
Allegedly collecting bodies and repping effectively
Stop fronting like you wanna be wise and shit
Half the shit u been spitting been lies and shit
You went from arrogant to tears down ya eyes shit
Crush em like roaches mosquitoes flies and shit
We coming for the title

They tried to break thru capitol building
Bred in an environment where having no filter
Is praised, mama raised a good son though
Time flies so fast ... where the month go?
Where the weeks go? Where the days go?
Every minute’s another chance to get paid though
Capitalism is the religion
Consumers enslaved to this market free system
Winners and losers whims and rumors
Generation x’s zoomers and the boomers
Poor people the catalyst for the cash flow
That means poor people is cattle you know how that go
Subsidizing billionaires a thousand dollars prayers
Nostradamus prophecies that profit all the players
Robots programmed accept propaganda
They stealing all the money but we the ones in the handcuffs
Go to the church pray more
Go to the mosque pray more
Free market economy is a sham damn
Thats a truth bomb exploding in y’a hand
Rupert Murdock MSNBC FOX
Declassified info we wanna see the docs
And stop trying to dox me... I don’t live nowhere
But I can travel anywhere so don’t even you go there
We don’t even believe you, you in over y’a head
Drowning in overhead hope that doesn’t go over y’a head
Myth and illusions slipped in the minutia
Collusion politicians similar to prostitution
Future forward thinker it’s the man in the delorian
This is the way we coming like mandalorians
From the land of warriors the circuit breaker hitmen
Now You see me now you don’t like I’m afraid of commitment
Leg Bron the free electron .. I reconnect arms
To necks legga arm head my echelon best
Terminator Po that artifical tell
Barbecuing bad minds in the middle of hell
Robots programmed accept propaganda
They stealing all the money but we the ones in the handcuffs
Penny in the fountain pray more
Retreat up to the mountain pray more
Believe what you want to
You mindless
Test tube, farmed genetically modified
Mongaloid
Consuming fast food brain clogging information
Eating garbage experimenting with substance yet pointing the finger at What everybody else is doing hypocritical bootleg Socrate on the stoop Going Live on social media platform and gaslighting
The fuck out of low information "I need to feel better about myself" Sheep... get all the way the fuck out of here

For several centuries already they lied
Heros already died for the cause they traded they lives
I'm on the day to day just grinding cruising playing De La
Mais c'est la vie... will i make it kid? I may or may not (let's see)
The young Solomon with the heart catching breaks like parliament
Recorded "Black Privilege" than I bumped into Charlamagne
That’s before his book drop maybe I should’ve cook rocks
Never took shot Harvey Kaye told me I had some chutzpah
Thomas Payne even though we playing a dishonest game
Did it for the bank see ... you recognize that artist name
I'm counting profits while you counting pockets counter ya
Counterfeit logic bury the black ball in the corner pocket
Corner the market you standing on the corners to gossip
I'm "Gorbacheving" with a whore in a gorgeous apartment
Rocking a mask so you can’t recognize me
I'm never sloppy .. don’t politic with y’all y’all fuckers never got me
I'm international favors I’m never asking you
You peep the strategies I use I let have you a few
The Iron Sheik of desert except he’s even better
I made this game my bitch matter fact we sleep together
Always the black sheep I’m used to the position
My alter ego’s all terrain I’m used to these conditions
That’s why you rarely catch me bitching ate from the wooden spoon
And every bar keeps em howling like the fullest moon

God bless him pull up to his block and give him a lesson
My mind is incandescent like an ancient Incas with his empress
Embarrass rapper, clout chasing, Twitter-happy tap dancing
Sold a half a rock and acting like they Nino Brown dramatic
Simple rhyme ass never had a memorable line ass
Plus lying ass, saved by your producer every time ass
Giggling at bitches 38 year old virgin ass
Never pulled a trigger spitting murder raps
Repping the block your grand ma live at fifty deep buying protection
Forever seeking daddy’s approval but I deny your efforts
Marketing brand exploited by the white man ass
Only Middle America never seen the hood fan having ass
Not syndicated still gossiping like Wendy William ass
Cock blocker extraordinaire with ya ugly groupies stinking ass
Publicist scrambling to get you articles ass
I've heard farts that sound better dust particle ass bitch

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
Gee Bag and Po that’s prophecy
Guy Hy we dope we obviously
Bombing these rapper daily like
Ruin they life like a crazy wife
Patting myself on the back
This is divinity all in a rap
Got an affinity making the cash
Got the artillery up in the back
F’u know the kid U know the vibe
U know the buzz we on the rise
U know the stories u kno the gods
U know the devils u know the fraud
Up up down down left right
Cheat code gotta get it right
Sheep clothes with wolves inside
Squeezing toast like wolfestein
Yo I think it’s time man...
Pharaohgamo Ramses
Barking on em like Gordon Ramsey
Kick u out ya own kitchen type shit and start cooking our own dishes
This ain’t just an appetizer ...

I'm knocking ankle loose vodka mixed with pamplemousse
Style been stamped since my youth star-spangled banner boost
Primitive alpha algorithm falcon
Trafalga square malcom that’ll civilize the savage
Black Gemini atlas keep stimis under the mattress
Remi mart in my glass can’t be timid walking this path
Can’t be timid when taking math
Don’t be timid when walking passed baby
Gimme me y’a math I'm a hit you when I get back
Im a different type of specimen, different type of regiment
When they talk of my success
Gotta use different of measurements
Precision is intelligence, listen to my gut instinct
Don’t care about y’a pissing contest...
I’m concerned with other things
Cash App notifications is raining
I might purchase a spaceship
Perseverance and patience
The personification of a persona that’s greater
You an impersonator, plus cursed to never make it
This boat is segregated, we don’t play with the fake shit
Pretty babes on the hip that day to day shit ...
Get to this level... you can’t be the bitter
Time for you bump you some of this
Vintage age whiskey from the genghis khan dynastie era
Im from that sengoku era cloth...
I ain’t talking dragon ball either
Im talking ancient Japanese samurai cherry blossom
Petal on a bed of bloody grass scenery
We can’t just mix with everybody
That would dilute the product
I ain’t diluting my humanism for yall...
You on your second favor already you ain’t low
Come thru on your first before you ask for a third...
Life doesn’t lie, lies don’t win....
Elongated skull, my blood is orange colored
At the orchard sipping wine during a stormy summer
Fuck your boring numbers trying to keep us poor and sullied
Wake up to morning skully, that’s shit’s worth more than money
I’m in a foreign country and no it’s not a bar
Keep my ship running, tighter than Kamala’s bra
Galley La Dalila Marley Marl
Marley Bob when I die they’ll auction off my body parts
Maybe perserve my brain connect it to a computer system
You know my shooting percentage my output too consistent
I’m a star without the marketing dollars
Without the Kabala without the Goliath
Without the media bias ... just a seed who grew up from the dirt
And when they imitate recognize who gave it to you first ...
I built a universe, divine but not through the church
I noticed the holier than thou crowd be those who do the worst
Can never cancel culture im not a rapper
I’m a sample sculptor don’t talk me about cancel culture
Ya silly tirades on Twitter show me your weakness
You scared to spar over drums show me your features
These aren’t songs these are pieces of my mind
Take glimpse inside the hive.. formalities turn to formaldehyde
Dudes don’t be nothing like what they advertise
When they fall off for being exposed, don’t act surprised
Bitchassness promoted to kids and I hate it
Selfishness magical thinking and visualization
Over ethics, work solidarity and cooperation
You can’t co-opt what’s sacred
Would have thought we was living in a psychological operation
Beefing with y’a ops of over blocks named after slavers
Poverty wages no options but death and jail
The set up is for us to fail
Few of us survive long enough to tell the tale
Heaven or hell
Hustling to make it bubble like a stomach full of ginger ale

Praise Everything

Got you stuck off the realness like gum under the gum sole
Gun Ho Po I just follow where the sun go
UFO info, building like Lou Ferrigno
Dig deep into the subject not just sifting thru the Cliffnotes
Attended a racist ass school in high school
It taught me had to work twice harder to rise through
I never made excuses for myself I just got iller
Till I became a top biller topple obstacles like Godzilla
Shit got realer when I moved to brooklyn
It ain’t about what you make its about who pushes
Booger Smith like legend in this game but not mainstream
Only rapper have you double take over some plain speak
Tell it straight and never complicate it
Well compensated only way to compensate for the pain
Playing it safe was never part of the vernacular
Never felt the need to play myself in front cameras
I’m a whole person not a gimmick
I’m more important than a number
Slightly timid when I was younger
Gave myself a voice plus the means to give myself a choice
And build myself a brighter future like Elroy
Hellboy without the horn, legends always outperform
Destined to be special they knew it when the child was born
Praise everything around me
I want everyone to do good
Everyone na do well
My energy is praise everything around me
I want to everything to go well
There’s a lesson even when you fail .... that’s why I
Praise everything around me
I want everyone to do good
Everyone na do well
My energy is praise everything around me
I want to everything to go well
There’s a lesson even when you fail
I try not to dwell on anything beyond my control
F’it wasn’t so, probably would be done a long a time ago
Negative minds and tongues don't fair well with my lungs
Positive thinkers only in my boat you welcome to come
The person I came to become took pain to become
Mainly because of growing pains it don’t pay to be dumb
I came debunk false narratives that’s been accepted
Life’s a series of choices on multiples intersection
Decisions u feel in ya gut below ya solar-plexus
Have you questioning ya morals to who you owe ya direction
Often times I felt so disconnected
Like my body ain’t belong to me alone with nobody to bond with
Phone calls out a couple of friends, non-responsive
I couldn’t win, nowhere to turn but within
The moto never let em see u sweat I had to pretend
Had to dig deeper inside myself to find strength
But the music there different affair kick and the snare
Did it for me regardless whether not the listener cared
So if you in the type of slump I was in
There’s hope you can get out of it step out of the dark
You gon be proud of it
Praise everything around me
I want everyone to do good
Everyone to do well
My energy is praise everything around me
I want to everything to go well
There’s a lesson even when you fail .... that’s why I
Praise everything around me
I want everyone na do good
Everyone to do well
My energy is praise everything around me
I want to everything to go well
There’s a lesson even when you fail

Friend or foe enemy or comrad
Got me nostalgic like the memory of Combat
resume without a blemish surpassed and broke limits
Gave it to ya like pulp fiction shattered old gimmicks
I seen a lot of hate I felt a bit of it inside me
The plays I set up started scoring and the shit is timely
I left a bag of grudges and resentment all behind me
Cause if I let it fester shit I might of caught a Homi
People disrespect boundaries wanna take advantage
I learn to manage a few of y’all’ll see me vanish
People who treat me less’ll see me less
I don’t do the social pms never let these fuckers see me sweat
We make the bed we sleep in... I copped a better mattress
Why ever worry about what they think when it never matters
The devil is liar had to get my brain rewired
Habanero life what come outta my tongue be fire
Freedom can’t be bought at a store
Rich or poor How you pay for ass and u still a whore
Some walking thinking they different but they really the norm
Another day for me mourn ....
Acquired narcissism a couple thousand followers
Pop shit and hiding trauma in the land of broken promise
Egotistical survival so sadistic towards our rivals
Chauvinistic towards these bitches no morals amongst the richest
Worshipping the market systems .. muzzling the conscious sisters
Only constant is the gimmicks inside the products they pitch us
Another star is christened, selling us poverty porn
Scanning souls at point of sale
Swapping shoes that hardly worn and
And what we used to laugh at’s now become a norm and
The future hits the present cause the roosters coming home
You ain’t noone without a context no one without a wallet
You no one without a block and
You no one without the knowledge
Packaging a face of happiness and wealth
Selling us some serotonin
Solo ceremonies for yourself
The serum penetrates the cell and marinates with your reflection
Innocence disintegrates the world no longer shows affections

Rejected the status quo lifted off my feet man I rather float
Grab the notes.... witness on my socials how my status blow
Laughing at those who cap the most ... never do nothing big
Hustled and discovered my inner power like Puff and Big
I was all a dream crossed another bridge
Another movie scene ... pioneered a new style like Schooly D
Whatever I portray’s what I truly be...
Life's risky exclusive like ... whiskey bottles at the duty free
Say it unfiltered like Lil Boobsie that music you spitting don’t move me
I rather do me .... Legendary
This the sequel to the triple headed trilogy
Agility sharp I place y’a head under the guillotine
Then again I never lose hell or booze Penelope Cruz
Mental telepathy my energy grew
Celebrity news and tabloids eating like a fat boy
The rap Floyd Mayweather can’t stop Bad Boys
Trading places like Eddy with Dan Akroyd
I’m an android most these rappers fan boys
Got so many damn flaws still I stand boss cut y’a hand off with
A handsaw for biting let my sniper knock y’a man off
Iconic like Luther vandross mister Randolph
Kicking sand off my sandals that alternative ending
Hey yo I’m me yo for better or worse
And that’s word to the sweat on my shirt
No sugarcoating and no watering down
Used to be anonymous they follow me now
Hey yo I’m me yo for better or worse
And that’s word to the sweat on my shirt
No sugarcoating and no watering down
Used to be anonymous they follow me now
El Dorado elders respect Gamo
Use to rock it out in Zelda
Seltzer water in the bottle
Zeus reincarnated in human flesh product
I move is fresh a lot of them is used to less
I'm in a time zone ahead my head space is Japanese Zen
When you need nothing the agony ends
Reminiscing on the days I didn’t have any ends
My mind playing tricks felt like I didn’t any friends
Took it day to day felt like I didn’t have any strength
Karma was hitting back from days I didn’t have any sense
Dark times inverted sun still I felt my courage come
Some carry guns it leaves em scared of what they running from
I face Goliath with two feet one and half ankles
Made it alive with half a brain and still I mad thankful
Maneuvering the angles... solo only two can tangle
Still I handle my handle burning the ends of candles
Tony starks Ironman die hard surviving man
Lionheart the 5-star Renaissance the modern man
Chart a plan to built an institution through this music
If you listening you chosen only a few of us can do it
Hey yo I’m me yo for better or worse
And that’s word to the sweat on my shirt
No sugarcoating and no watering down
Used to be anonymous they follow me now
Hey yo I’m me yo for better or worse
And that’s word to the sweat on my shirt
No sugarcoating and no watering down
Used to be anonymous they follow me now
