What most would deem tragedy wasn’t even sad to me
Trained myself to look at situations for what the facts to be
Mastery forged a diamond from a series a catastrophes
Them extra theatrics a cause ya anatomy to atrophy
Attract to the ease
Of which that fast money came
Only respect those who come direct I’m not
With them funny games
When shits high stakes you learn to choose ya words carefully
Exited relationships when the terms weren’t fair to me
Slugs get sparked on fake tough guy talk
That brain of yours used to think but now it hugs sidewalks
Can tell your whole career you been trying to get love by force
I was on stage, shorty tried to suck my shorts
That’s a different game I’m playing and you ain’t in it
Cut your sentence while you talking nigga you ain’t finish
My third eyes evolving everyday I got new antennas
I knock your teeth in the future like a new age dentist
What I do’s independent I don’t depend on yall
I’m solicited for my time I don’t spend on broads
I don’t waste time I only make money with mine
I paid my dues in the dark for me it’s nothing to shine
Even if I stop breathing albums still gon feed me
I enacted all the plans in my head yall still dreaming
I'm fully operational respect the God who reigns supreme
And crush the planet like a Death Star laser beam

Destroy your Ego

Disregard my bank account
My mental's always crazy stacked
I destroy the egos of megalomaniacs
When I land in a city I don't tell anybody
Yall been sweating the same chicks
I unfriend probably
We already been had a history (old news)
Now you know why these simp
Jealous niggas dissing me
Yall putting albums together
I'm building monuments
And building with my niggas
Like politicians in parliaments
Noticed lately I'm popping up in top rapper arguments
I'm goated baby dropping albums nonstop
Bombing em (Napoleonic)
This is Gamo gang
Never liked Obama not a Biden nor a Donald fan
Ain't no such thing as a promised land
All I know is I put money in my mama's hand
Thanked her for the sonogram
Always kept it honest with the fans
And if don't like it
Don't listen you can swallow sand (bitch)
This ain't for the, weak the sell outs and the flakes
This for the head who rather tell it to your face
And they hate it cause the truth hurts
True to life innovators always move first
This ain't for the, weak the sell outs and the flakes
This for the head who rather tell it to your face
And they hate it cause the truth hurts
True to life innovators always move first
8 album average in a year Po you over did it
Yall was talking I was showing yall how im living
All my highs lows my victories and my woes
And I can't help it if I have chemistry with the hoes
I can't help, was breaking so many rap codes
And curating a style that kept on generating cash flow
May come across as an asshole but life ain't always been nice
I learned to eat even if I had to kill for a thin life
So if you wanna get at the god you should think twice
Knock ya fucking head up off ya shoulder and the shit light
I twist a bird for trying to twist my words
Hit him with an instant curve
Give em this work and then I flip the bird
I'm a distant first you ain't equipped to go the distance
Turn your career from a bad joke to a whole statistic
I'm so sadistic when it comes to this
Outside my comfort zone nigga we don't run from it
Break your ego
This ain't for the, weak the sell outs and the flakes
This for the head who rather tell it to your face
And they hate it cause the truth hurts
True to life innovators always move first
This ain't for the, weak the sell outs and the flakes
This for the head who rather tell it to your face
And they hate it cause the truth hurts
True to life innovators always move first

Defy gravity
Life a try to bring you down savagely
Walking with a battery pack on my back cavity
And bad habits, trying to combat depravity
Graduated from the "I don't give fuck" academy
To build somethin better for myself
Met up with top shelf connections
Never selling myself short
From out the North East teleported across seas
Took some losses had to deal with some divorce fees
Like father like son see how the odds spun
We all trying to live from this but I just got the job done
More than the pages I write, it's a way of life
Had to sacrifice for what I wanted had to pay the price
For a slice of the market share they don't be playing honest fair
Had to learn to think quicker slicker than E Honda's hair
The game is cold but I'm bolder
Holding the burden now my shoulder hurting
Projecting myself as an older person
Wrinkled up without a single fuck
Still saying "fuck the world" with my middle fingers up
Life can a slut and then you die got love Nas and AZ
I analyzed the jewels and now I pay homage
Half-a-Mil spoke to me during a dream
Told me never forget to stay in tune with your inner being
Took heed to the information
Like the books I read and went harder
Than climbing up the stairs with some crooked knees
#CHORUS
I just wanna do something I'm proud about
And if I die tomorrow don't be sad
I did what I did with what I had
#CHORUS
I just wanna do something I'm proud about
And if I die tomorrow don't be sad
I did what I did with what I had
#VERSE
Not a prisoner of perfect walking on this earth surface
For what it's worth did it even if I felt nervous
Wanna cop nice things I wanna own a home
Traveling across the globe cause my music known
Stay respectful the values of a wise man
Level headed despite getting letters from wild fans
Sometimes I think of Blacastan and Sean P
Where they at?
Wonder when you gone what you gone see
My father was a fan of soul and R&B
Now we flip the same samples and turn em to hard beats
It's a constant cycle a friend can become a rival
We seen with Biggie and Pac it turned homicidal
Constantly chasing my childhood dream
In the music aisle copping albums I would fiend
And fantasizing about the lifestyle and scene
Violence and success thin line like a balance beam
We toe the line precisely always a light sleeper
Paranoid that failure might creep up like the reaper
I ain't choose this body I just live in it
You can hate me but that won't change how I bringing it
I'm a shine for nobody my light, I'm a dimming it
And I'm a kill it on any production indiscriminate
Take it to the infinite for x amount of time
Some may call it stubbornness but I just call it pride
#CHORUS
I just wanna do something I'm proud about
And if I die tomorrow don't be sad
I did what I did with what I had
#CHORUS
I just wanna do something I'm proud about
And if I die tomorrow don't be sad
I did what I did with what I had

Oda Nobunaga I'm the go-to shotta
Goku with the vocal bravada they so below my prana
I'm more like ghost of PAC when he was dating Kidada
Mixed the ghost of Siddartha my whole approach is smarter
Top of the totem pole show you how to mold the product
F' we go to war embarrass opponents
Like Globe Trotters
My life's a soap opera rap money I gross proper
Show stopper they don't want no smoke and no problems
When I start to go then it's no stopping
Last nigga that dissed me ended up broke with his corpse rotting
Another score dropping po the more mature option
But it can get ignorant quick i don't ignore the gossip
Fuck ya team and ya label, I can destroy your roster
Mikael Gorbachev Wallets I got a gorgeous pocket
Like Nostradamus I predict yall niggas falling off
I been putting the beats on these niggas I'm like Marley Marl
#HOOK
Mike Tyson knock out blow

While yall was dancing with the devil I was building castles
You ain't build to battle bitch you barely built to babble
It ain't shit to travel you can drop the addy
Soon as I hop out the caddy's going down
Shout out to Mary
We can do it pay per view these suckers pay for views
Perfect time to show off a few of my favorite moves
I'm a cradle the rock like Jordan in 82
Might cop a mortgage after with a Porsche thats baby blue
Watch for the right hook, the left cross is crazy too
Look what corny shitty bitch boy made me do
This ain't no shadowboxing, brah these punches land
When you lose im a disappoint the world's dumbest fans
Firepower like NATO dishing violent KO
Disfiguring ya facial like an anime show
The undisputed, founded a school with a hundred students
The fastest hands in the east nigga ya gun is useless
#HOOK

I may seem modest
But this brain juggles supreme knowledge
I don't read garbage exploding by it like Rasheed Wallace
Championship teams never champion your cheap dollars
Watch your words when of speaking of a man with extreme promise
Since a teen bombing, as an adult I was god
Who was foretold to bring the devil toward its demise
Formulating schemes to weather the storm forming in the sky
Was like a Ronin swordsman in pure form roaming in the Stuy
George Foreman in his prime tormented soul inside
My conversations skills was trash
But they would noticed when he would rhyme
Closed minded, four in the morning eating at Joe's Diner
Order meatloaf coming up from a deep slope when dough dried up
Depressed and anxious my intellect would turn to anguish
Cause when you stuck and confused anger becomes the best language
Would wreck bangers, then it's off to the next gambit
Bench press at the gym pec muscles expanding
Apple cider vinegar focus like Forest Whitaker
Who knew this daily journaling would turn historic literature
As time went on, I would get more and more particular
Of what beats I would spit on selecting a co-conspirator
But that's only the tip of the iceberg at night would say fight words
This knife a send you straight to the night nurse huh
Gregory Issac da legend is rising
Underground name buzzing like celebrity gossip

You can’t dimmen all the spots I been in, rocking proper denim
Lookin like a prophet crashing out and now the block is spinning
Fuck your pops opinion, got back to mopping kitchens
Politic the biscuit when it’s popping Molotov ya picnic
Pop some big shit fans wanna stop to take some pictures
Auspicious king extend the ring for the opps to kiss it
Fuck your optimism, if you got some heart then diss em
Put your organs on the market now your heart is missing
#VERSE
Now you know I’m fitna stir the pot a new elixir
I’m straight liquor these emcees lil summer spritzers
Hiccups in this Hip Hop Culture dumpster worthy come and get em
The best diggers skip em wouldn’t even think to spin em
Sometimes I wanna go back to battlin’ just to diss em
Omit em cats be like damn look at how she did em
Stripped him of his dignity went from predator to victim
Constrict em take him for a quick swim then dismiss em
#VERSE
Prolific wisdom in this devilish system
We maximize the repetitions and weaponize my gift
For you westernized bigots, like a Western when I spit it
With Jayne Wayne the way we change lanes type switching
Faster than the eye twitches violate you at your place of business
Innately vicious separate alphas from beta niggas
Great eclipses in the skies form when the rhyme born
More powerful than AI we smacking up these cyborgs
#VERSE
Pythonic wit it smack ya logic right up out ya fitted
Ironic isn’t it iconic without a written
She spitting that’s what they say when they play to listen
Pharaogamo Pharaoh Queen the theme Pharaonic, get it?
Jayne Wayne on em’ flipped it like Cain on em’
Wit my alter ego on a stage entertaining the forum
Y’all rappers plain boredom had to flame scorch em’ plain awesome
My Shinobi’ll come at you like a cane corso
#VERSE
My name Po though… smack you out ya plain Polo
Bumping… playing Toto with a dame from Togo
I’m the type proto I know what time it is like Kronos
Almighty mojo , javelins aiming at the logo
On the middle on ya shirt I deal with megahertz
Knock the wisdom out your teeth give you some dental work
Fuck sentimental shit my work subject to censorship
Offend a bitch then adding some emphasis to end the shit
#VERSE
The Queen Pharaoh end a bitch he was condescending when he said some shit
Later found him empty his head on a stick
The Great Pensmenship independent lieutenant of this
Sequential wit it when I spit it they mention the shit
My henchman and bitch’ll take pleasure dismembering limbs
To protect the great treasure that this heroine is
The Queen Pharaoh the Wiz you don’t wanna start to narrow the bridge
And think about what you’ll be perishing in
#VERSE
Fame seeking clout chasing mechanism
Headless chickens chucking and jiving for recognition
Got some presence on the socials but the records missing
You wanna diss him? We can battle as a public exhibition
I’m explicit like advisory sticker
The lottery pick slash the winning lottery ticket
One in a billion chance rocking a Sicilian tan
When you see us give us respect and bring a million bans
#VERSE
Not only can she rap she also got hands
Out the trap locked and loaded going to war for my mans
I hit the score for my fam and sent the ball flying far out the stands
Lights shining place swarming with fans
I ignore an advance unless it’s the kind that gorges my bands
Sippin’ wine somewhere gorgeous in France
Touring foreign lands time changed the borders
Advanced
Sniperific wit it fuck around and shorten ya span

They used to pick me last
When we played pick up at the park
So I would sit up in my room, doing sit ups after dark
We had a solid crew but life shit made us split apart
Used to switch cars, smashing hoes during business calls
Couch with cum stains, euphoric young brain
Playing dumb games
With an untamed mind, I knew one day the sun reign
Whether sun or rain, sharpened my sword then I matured
Took this rap shit like a marvelous chore
And build my own my marvel universe
With the impact of a Thanos finger snap
The work of, dead revolutionaries we gonna finish that
Quick fast got A-1 credit Awon in the credits
When we make one
Got em scrambling to get the record
My body counts is an amazing tally in Belgium with beige Ballys
Medallion drippy on my shirt like a painting from Dali
Magnetic traits like Etta James on the 2 inch
Like a head of state study the greats my main influence
Fighting blind greed hypocritical snakes who prey on naive minds
With dreams and stars in their eyes, but shit is not free
Gotta be willing to pay the cost to get that
Sports Illustrated cover look many took ill fated losses
Some became bosses with their names tossed in rapper lists
Became targets cross hairs aim towards their abdomen
Handlers making sure to make it look like it's an accident
You peep how the game be slowly shaking off the masculine?
It ain't conspiratorial just peep the editorials
Heard niggas coming for me my machete deading four of you
Drugs side the drinks they pouring you, I never partake
Took it back to spitting in the park days
Came out from a dark place, anxious depressed to land success
In a manner yet to be achieved like anoxeria
The margin's thin, hero's of today was simply martyrs then
Sowing seeds to harvest doing deeds that make ya karma bend
