[Verse 1]
My uncle said I'm just a spitting image of my father
f** that, I spit images and scrimmage with my demons
Leave 'em in defeat, my vision's getting stronger
My competition's squid need comparison
Embarra**ed of my merit as a scholar
But what I'm living in this squalor
Scrubbing dishes, yeah I might look peasant
But nothing in my rhyme book pleasant
Transcripts a transmission from my arteries galaxy
f** [?] what lyrics are listened to?
You living in the gallery with art on display
But it all looks the same
Imprisoned in limits, you go get a gimmick and act real ignant in interviews
Go shoot you a kid or two
If you ain't the police, you won't get away with it
Who grants them permission to?
Like black is a synonym for suspicious
We practice division but no longer written
The rich getting richer, the poor can't afford their own college tuition so
I drop knowledge every track and it's free, b**h
Drop that track, I'll be back in a week, b**h
In the booth like a crackhead I'm fiending
My mom got bills so I need this money
[Hook]
(Broke, broke, broke, broke)
Middle fingers high if you ever been broke
[Verse 2]
I'm like kidnap a trust fund baby
He screaming "Daddy Warbucks, come save me!"
He probably made all them bucks off of war
Where the whole front line was the 99 poor percentile
The other one is pale with the scales of a reptile
Feed us garbage, our brain cells dead now
From viruses and d** that they send down
f** it, hit the studio, pay for it with my unemployment check while
My son's on a budget
But I'm not the first terrorist the government funded
By a long shot, so much bloodshed now
You reject their agenda, they'll send in projectiles
Protect your neck or rest in debt
Never speak of change, you'll get exiled
Or silenced, I'm broke so I'm suddenly violent
No strings, I'm no puppet or violin
Don't trust anybody, don't know what is tucked on the side of this dog-eat-dog
And these dogs if you protest and buck if you riotin'
You fight for a cause, you must die with it
Catch me with my broke brothers I'm rising with
Igniting sh**, kaboom!
[Hook]
