Im addicted to sinning, binge drinking
Giving me the false feeling
That im making a killing and
winning by a landside
Silly I reside by niggas who are used to
Making no moves
like theres glue on the sole of their shoes
A sad story in his soul too
Im running outta places to seek refuge
Im surronded by dealers, crackheads, ex-convicts
and hustlaz all proof that life's a bitch
An open wound i need a stitch
A dirty life i need to switch
So tired but i cannot quit
All i got is this pen and my pride
Keeping my eye on the pretty penny
With the brain on my side
I cant fuck this up
Stay away from these so-called in(spectators)
Gotta make some good fo' it self-destructs


------------------------------------
I can feel it like Phil/
That explains the chill/
I know i got the right case i aint taking the deal/
An evolution of new rappers, breaking free/
To put hiphop back where its supposed to be/

lol ma FIRST ever rap, so go easy. was bored in class so i threw it together in a few periods



MAMA AFRICA

Yo they call it the dark continent
But hell na man, that Im not having it
See, it was here where mankind was first initiated,
In the womb of Mama Africa population was first cultivated,
Where mine yours and the Klu Klux ancestors were initially spawned,
Though once born; torn, worn and scorn was the fate to which it was sworn,
And for what?
In the name of corn, crops, diamonds, and minerals,
Damn them Euros was ruthless in the mission they term as imperial
Yo, but aint it a miracle,
Peeps from the motherland still enjoy happiness at its pinnacle
Its easy to peep it cynically, but I dare you to view it spiritually, logically,
and don’t get at me condescendingly,
Nor come at me disrespectfully,
I’m just tryna kick this knowledge g,
You see the futures prophesy aint a present luxury,
Therefore we need for a recourse,
And stop this empty promise filled discourse
Of how we’re gonna improve our shores,
Coz if not it’ll be our loss,
And condemned to the sharp blade of remorse Will be our eventual tragic send off
Having breast fed mankind from an early very age,
Mama Africa deserve much more than our indifference let her up out this cage





Ask yourself why,
Littered with a wealth of natural resource,
At a consistent loss is where our economy continues to remain paused,
We need an urgent recourse, what do I propose?
I propose the UN to quit this pro posing
Quit this frontin,
CHOSEN leaders to stop HOSING people with hope they don’t intend to work on UPHOLDING
Lets convene to set goals that we honestly mean,
Ones that will progressively see ,
Our people standing on their own feet,
Oh wow what a feat
Good god that’d be sweet
Which brings me to the schemes,
We are advancing it seems,
Props to those who’ve been so ready to give,
Haven’t been tentative
Shout out to Bob geldof, Live 8 was truly that jumpoff,
No for real, hats off to sir,
a true connoisseur you were
brought third world to the fore,
Albeit for a minute
Still, a valued message in it,
And some will never forget it
While some will struggle to get it
Nonetheless we all in it to win it
And for it we will fight all things inclement
And I aint claiming rights to this movement
In fact, I aint been to Africa in much more than a minute
But my love for Mama is forever and it is infinite

i said it was easy
to be left for dead
now the fact that these streets need me
doesn't make me exempt from death
then during the proceedings
no wait , still enduring
with a temperament , maturing
you can say , my foolish haste , reassuring
but you can't make , me
guilty in any way
so long as my means recommend and end
within the hour
and as we speak
I begin to flower
like the roll before the road i chose intersects
and the dough i used to hold was but a flo' for the bread
then the clock strikes twelve and it's midnight within a hell
nonetheless i gotta get my shit right as this rappers mission gears
toward being discriminate of self
therefore no descriptions , and for all u non-believers of the hustle
you can just picture it yourself


round one goes to violence

as long as wealth leads in the pursuit of happyness
it becomes the thing to chase

this time it's timeless
touche , say that it'll take
someone like Lupe to rhyme it
fine then , naww take that back
i could never make a rap
split the dividends with half my past in mind then
on second thought , as an apprentice of the future
give me the pen and just tell me when to sign them
i mean me , see mighty authentic unless describing
how to mc , and i compute every lecture
on the computer found myself refuting every sense of
style i've measured with a down right pressure
yessir , can't u guess it lessons now
like an adventure , ima put my two cents in venture
and then claim the patent , with a demeanor
that don't even need to be explained in rapping
unless for the sake of needing to save , i put my name in after
yesss , there is no way , i could ever be claimed as best
so i put my all and waiver , till im at least tagged up
like the walls that i write on , see me street where i rest wit no lights on
so you couldn't see me flex
push weight upon the structure , till it crumbles like my hustle
be a struggle , every time i achieve the depth uh
then i clearly climb out of the hole with a hand full of gold
that's the example i hold , when i flo'
letting my past zone and shine a light on
everywhere my rap path will go ....
