[Verse 1] Yo, I’ma give it my best And I ain’t ever gonna give it a rest I’m manic and when it come to this shit I’m obsessed Not the greatest thing for me so picture the mess I don’t have a match but I’m still hot as fuck I’m done preaching now I’m all about bossin’ up Hit rock bottom, now I’m toppin’ up I got the skill for this so fuck rotten luck Hey girl, release the latch Cos I ain’t your puppet, no strings attached Never gonna give you a kinky slap Your wish ain’t my command, what you think of that? I wasn’t born as a ragin’ baby Had a lady play me and a mate betray me Anybody who’s said shit about me lately If you honestly think that you’re safe you’re crazy I got scores to settle and bones to pick And I’m no longer gonna lay low with it Emerging from my dungeon, guns blazing Cos I’m running low on patience so fuck waiting I got a bunch of fans I wanna touch base with I’m still grinding, here’s an update kids The public takes my art as love/hate Cos there are peeps who love it while some hate it [Verse 2] Uh, I took a break for a second Now back to work and making a record Carving a sequel, creating a second See the rap game? I’m aiming to wreck it Sorry to anyone who may be affected By my obsessive waging rage and aggression Listening to me is like taking a lesson And sometimes there might be hate in the message Still I’m making an effort While what other people create ain’t even vaguely impressive And I know that the haters resent it I’ve started dropping so lately I’ve sensed it I understand I gotta be patient to get it In too deep and too late for an exit Your wraps are shit, I ate them for breakfast Why are you even taking the credit? [Verse 3] In a way life is a song That plays all day and night ’til it’s gone I’ma chuck an overnighter This is dope and fire like I’m lighting a bong Dropped a tape, it was my arrival Bless the re-entry, your idol’s back Got over one hundred listens on the title track So where the fuck is my vinyl plaque? Started with Me - people played the shit No hook but I got away with it The rest of the project got played a bit But mostly it flopped and there’s no saving it I guess is success is hard to get right Until then, I’ma hold my head high Do what I can just to get by In my room with a pad and a lead pipe I feel shit in the day so I write at night Staying up late tryna find the vibe And after it’s done I feel quite alright It’s that self-pleasure kind of grind If your mood’s low then I’m lifting it Cos this is the present I was gifted with And I was gifted with this gift at the present moment No one else has it, I’m blessed to own it, yo
