and now i'm feeling strong enough
and now i'm feeling strong enough to let you in
still in the business of acting like I give fucks bout a bachelors
palm the wilson like jacqueline, tote the pen like a javelin
praised Allah in the act of it asking "what you got planned for him?"
hear the growls in my abdomen, see the money in maximalism
i've been combative, my left shoulder been dancing
my right shoulder im glancing over, the blades can get graphic
brum city fuck with me, hot and fresh off the panic
Basha
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN???
me and the reaper been at it
touch of death i look around and all i see is the ashes
i throw the dirt on my mother's father, the clay ain't no cassius
still a call up to action
light up the sky when i'm rapping, let off the prayers like lanterns
i shoot the dark like assassins
a marksman
raise my hand up to the heavens i grab it and toss it
and what you hear is all the echoes that slip through the art of it
so stop the questions asking where's the new music im harbouring (albums otw dw)
i said it to you calmly, get off me, and get at it yourself
been wrestling all these curses, you'd have thought Von Erich was dealt
the friendliest of hands, could read the age of the knuckles we belt
we wise beyond our years, here's a toast to the lonliest tells
and opium spells that missed me
i was just raised different
yo basha WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN???
i've been away listening
observe the way you christen any and all positioned in that umg prison
they sign a vow of silence, while im signing verses, ship em
by the boat load, new money on him but he's still an old soul
i keep a local rapper in a chokehold baby !
you see em walk around their campus like they've seen a ghost
i treat their bars like a thesis and i just poke holes baby !
i feel like malcolm, know i'm sharper than ever
and these the game speed drills i leave an X in each letter
from Durham to Devon i'm dropping 50 bombs in endeavours
and dotting my brothers, CONDUCTOR armed the beat and I dead em,
im gone !
