The Finish Lyrics by John River

The Academy

2019

[Verse 1]
Peter piper couldn’t pick a better writer
Set a light to seven cyphers with a lighter
Sentenced and get sent to Rikers
Filled with snipers, chill with bikers
Kill a lifer in a thrilling, fight a guard
Comes out I knife her like her imma pipe her
Get inside her and excite her
Make her cum I take you higher
Flick your clit the dick is thick
I redefine thе inner lining of your pussy width not pussy whipped or pussy bitch don’t push me
Hit it oncе then no reply her once I fucked I used to like her
You ain’t ready I’m used to riper
Shit is heavy you used to lighter
You too hyper you a liar your pussy tight my future brighter
I’m that nigga new reminder case you niggas lost your memory the greatest rapper ever how you niggas gon remember me
Top five aye who your members be?
Don’t lie, you got a tendency Not high?
I’m in ascendency, Not I? My flow is heavenly
Look, Imma tell you one thing for free my nigga
Ain’t a rapper in the world better than me my nigga
They like John you ain’t even twenty-three my nigga
Ain’t no telling just how good you bout to be my nigga
Well, I guess we’ll have to wait and find out
I’ll be the man for a pigeon if you take the swine out
That’s eon Deion, primetime with the shirt
From the best kept secret Weinstein was the worst
You might find lines in a church, cause nigga this the gospel
The closest thing you’ll find to Jesus sitting in a brothel
With a strap bout clap with a Four-four nigga
Oh you know a better rapper you don’t know no nigga
I made it out Kanata with no promo nigga
I am Tony Montana with no Romo nigga
Doubt I’d make it out ok there was a little bit
But you ordered the truth online nigga I just delivered it
A nigga that was grounded and rounded
Painting pictures of surroundings astounded
You was browsing and you finally found it
Here I am, here I stand the son of virgin
Mary from a place near Iran
Look, God ignore the blasphemy
Mom I hope you proud of me
I Mastered the craft of mastery
For all the niggas that passed on me
It’s The Academy
[Chorus]
The places we been, The shit that we seen
That's all that we know, We weep but don't fold
The seeds that you grow, You reap what you sow
The shit in our skies, We wish we that fly
The shit for my guys. I hope that you ride for me
The shit in our skies, We wish we that fly
The shit for my guys, I hope that you ride for me
[Outro]
So yeah that’s when I went out to L.A
I had this homie he used to say - actually I’ll let him say it
The best rapper in the world is selling furnaces and air conditioners in the muthafucking Row
Yeah so that was me, so we get out to L.A staying on my niggas couch (what up Stanford) one thing leads to another
We get this music to HOV, so we thinking we out this bitch we bout to blow, so basically he’s like he's amazing
He'll blow for sure etc etc
BUT he’s still so young tell him to comeback in 6 months and we’ll do it then
So I was like wow, but when I was younger like 11
I was playing on this team was too shy wasn’t doing well
So my dad started this soccer academy, me my brother my cousin Jazze who was murdered a couple years ago, and it was just hours of practice all winter
But came out next season ending up lighting up the league then get an offer and ending up playing in Europe so fast forward to now to little over a year ago
I’m back in the Row now, we just got evicted
Mom had a stroke, best friend in jail, cousin just got murdered And I’m me, selling furnaces and air conditioners in the middle of fucking nowhere
But in the back of mind I always knew I was the guy
So after the Hov thing happened, I was like bet
Time to go back to the academy
I always remembered too, Michael Jordan at Laney High Nobody knew who he was, so I just figured that was me
And locked in I, and actually that’s when I made Lisa
“Hey Lisa how you feeling”
So 6 months later go back to L.A now everybody is like
Oh this shit's amazing but I was like fuck it
I’m take a year until nobody can ever pass on me again
So one year to the day, the time comes and what happens?
I walk into a hospital and I get sick super sick
That’s just too hard to talk about, but these niggas tried to take my life. My life
They let my mother watch me die, we we’re begging for help, What’s it’s like to lose to everything at 22, but you know
With that being said God brought me back
Got my sight back, started getting feeling back in legs & that’s when
Nurse Kaye said God brought back Jesus & he brought back you
The Bastard that rose only this time, I came back to be King
And even Mike had doubt you’ll they said you never be bigger than yaya... suck my dick Nigga
I died already. Fuck can these niggas tell me?
Plus I got to finish The Academy
I don’t want to talk too much so that’s but that’s the Academy, Shout out all my niggas in the Roe
Young bolivar in Caracas, Young Mike at Laney, and Young Jon Bastard in the North
Next stop the Pros
Next stop the Pros
