Playing games close to chest like chess I take the rooks in to let rookies win
Make 'em eat their words like they were cooking sin
I don't need to verse 'em I just hook 'em in if I look different in person look again
Too late I'm quicker than you think slipping I'm sipping on that drank
Sighing like hmm as they hum and swear that
They ain't seen or heard nothing even remotely better
Now we playing roles I'm on parole like good behaviour and
She like my flavour all of my bars they be favoured and
Don't wanna be the best hand on my chest man just the favourite
Cut through the team centre-mid they coming for my blood like I was the saviour kid
My dinner strays fake rappers trapping get caught lacking in the interstate
No clue about the rules but where I'm from they know the winner stays on
And in the Winter they run straight they know I'm never set to stand-bi
Memorial result of the territorial still hearing landmines
Everybody just concerned about the cheddar
More of us trying but can we really make it better
4,000 abused women are killed per annum
That reminds me of a girl I used to study with called Aanam
All-nighters learning biology 'bout thylakoids and granum
And damn I'd hate to have to see her tombstone on that channel
Life is an open door so make sure you're not manhandled
Even if it means bringing people in to form a panel
I'm not tryna make this personal tryna keep my views vertical
Not waiting for a flight but my journey is looking terminal
Not waiting for a solar flare a voice still tells me "burn em all"
I ignore it and instead for mother I be earning more
Just endure the pain enjoy the rain and draw the train of thoughts again
Stand out like you're wearing orange or paying homage to something foreign
We've all been summoned to higher callings please stop stalling it's appalling
Time is money keep it chill like a HotPoint and the hands on my wrist point to a lot boi
Watching my baby sleeping like she in a cot boi but now they feel to boycott
They sit and let the poor rot measure with hashtags like how many more shot
Now they looking at me with uncertainty
No longer hurting me no more closed curtains please
I liberate myself I went from binning all my pills
And now I'm living in the hills I found new faith I'm chasing thrills
Looking down at the sunrise sipping Sunpride
I joke that my pops never had the sensation of son-pride
But now I'm an alumni with an alibi sweet home like Alabama
When it comes to the bars I'm never running out of ammo
If I had to take a picture of my thoughts it'd be a pano
Out here playing all the players like I'm paid on a piano
And you'll never see me coming like John Cena wearing camo
Everybody wanna body be an actor but the action is too amateur
If Young Metro don't trust you Future shoot you like a camera
They tell me say the magic words I'm like avada kedavra
Why say please no such thing as safety
So they cut like safe T buss another case jheeze
Gravity is my anchor to reality it keeps me down to earth
Sleep never balanced either in excess or dearth
I'm about bands 'cause I'm not really a chain guy
She still blinging my hotline thinking I'm a changed guy
Bruce Lee with the water and you're just Ribena
If you don't like me when I'm angry then you'll hate me when I'm meaner
If he chirps like a cicada then I'll have him sorry
Two horns I'll take all of the Bravo out of man like Johnny
And these man from Hackney tried attacking me leg round out
For a roundhouse on some black man speed they couldn't hack that knee
Now they watching clothes so sharp they have no option but to depart dearly
Sharps department prees as two blades make two Two-Faces like shears g
So unfortunate that now I have to sort 'em out like a deadline
I have 'em on ten toes so they best tread light
Put me in a room with a monster and a beast no key
I'll come out from the feast 'cause I have both like a jinchuriki
And if they try to test mine against dead rhymes
I'm like Moe on a spiders web 'cause every single bar that
I drop from the top down to the docks is a dread line
Worshipping the tree I can't believe another pagan
Have man freeze you on your back like Black Beatles just came on
So step right - down decapitated by my claymore
Split opps down the middle 'cause I'm too op - ps: for
Bants if you're tryna say I take up Dead Space when you go Ark I
Guess I'll turn the Gears of War until I hear your Far Cry
They only hire 'cause they can't buy our talent so be wary of those talons
They'll rip through your squad like some cannons
Lost three of my dogs in the manor and I'm still laughing to this day with the rest
Till it's aching my chest and my ribs I'm blessed I thank God for these gifts
