Reduction
Intro
Enemy lines when I touch it, I’m moving like Barry Sand’
You can’t see just how I’m grooving, but feel me, the needle dance
I am me — no Wheezy, gotta keep it a pound
Fo Forty Eight flows, fo’ fifths, don’t die to keep it around
Hook
A man with a dream
A man with a dream
A man with a dream
A man with a dream with plans to make cream
‘I can tell you lots of things that’ll make you believe’
Verse 1
Old soul going against self, it ain’t no contest
But if I only do for myself I sear my conscience
Whipping flows, I don’t wanna digress
I’m feeling KungFu Kenny with a bit of Tigress
Pursuit of happiness, perfection had become the goal
‘If I grind the pain away maybe lead will turn to gold’
But I feel I see it clеar now, ‘eye the world and losе my soul’
A chemical reaction, redaction, reap what I sow
The speed of your synapse: I snap — Never lapse
Unless I’m swimming on a Lap’s, Push weight/Push, wait — Time my lap’s
The present is a gift, untie my raps wrapped nice
When I say “treat me nice”, know that I mean “niccce”
Ad-Lib to a line, does that mean I’m paying homage?
Pay attention at the line, time streaking like a comet
Boldin: Gotta bomb it — Like wheezing, I gotta vomit
Holding just to bomb it — One of one like a comic

Verse 2
Stop the cap, let me get it back, penning ‘cross the map
Broad Street, a narrow road gotta Bully on the track
Let’s keep a Trap: Style of music — art is/t flushing out the crack
Double back, then double that. One mo’ gin — I up the strap
Imagine that — “M” on head like ya’ got the Prince of Rap
Freeze frame, Majin Crane like I’m growing from the pain
Hydroplane: got no rabbit, outworking ‘em for the gain
A major pain: won’t exploit it for profit I never change
New direction — skating on pointer like “Penguin” mane
But I’m “Flyer” than the water, ‘So Icy’ I’m outta “Range”
The bane of my existence: Complacent with mental chain
I’m sparring just to keep ‘em from warring, I let it rain
False peace: They signing a treaty, the bombs a reign
The Crown the only one with some muscle?? But new terrain
Dead the sea, dividing the water, but no arraign
I’ll explain: they broke off a knob — A Steady Flame

Verse 3
Free game give ‘em clarity: “Love to see it” — who sparing me?
Jackie when I’m cutting, “No problem” — But hit like Darren, B
Sharpening the work: No rushing, made it barely
That temple mind, I quadruple down daringly
Fo’ shots to the dome, word to P! Built on a stone
So we past tough, “Word to Your Mother”, now get them hands up
Gripping on a pope for the pulp, now run that juice back
Oh I got that? Well run the Grove now, I’m at yo’ top hat
Why I oughta! Let me alternate, the pen in New Jersey
Like they want a word salad while I’m giving ‘em surgery
I won’t take no vow of silence got ‘em hanging on the perjury
No vow of silence — They hanging on the perjury
“Boss don’t pull the rug. Know he salting me with a slug
Know he want a mil’ a verse, as a rookie I gotta dub
How he charging out the gate while we taxing ‘em at the club?
How he moving heavy weight? Gotta genie, I know he rub!”
