[Intro]
Eyes closed, and the fog is thick, can't you see?
Look into my eyes, picture that Sharingan, eternal sleep
What?
[Verse 1]
K i D, second D is silent, what's the point, where's the tip
This iceberg is slight work and I might swerve and hit a ship
If you didn't notice I'm in an ocean, why? I must be misplaced
Can't wait until I can see your face, I'm drowning in a sea of grace
Never can I measure up, no medicine in my metal cup
Say let him up, and he takes a breath
(Step away from the microphone!)
Chocolate rain can you feel the pain, let's keep it Frank
This ocean's deep, last year I was slipping
My mind was gone and my soul was weak
But I'm here, aw yeah, I made it to a new year
Yeah suicide, was on my mind, straight tweakin', couldn't think clear
Forget about it, I'm past that, that last quack, like Aflac
Those phases fade like wearing little kid's backpacks
REMEMBER!?
Remember that? I remember, this lion's den, I'm Simba
My Kaio-ken is on times ten, these dudes sweet like Splenda
Urr, with the Tech N9ne growl
Everybody's thinking that this little dude here can't spit
Checking out the condition of Hip Hop
With a switchblade I could pick locks, open the crypt
Dead rappers come back to life, and that still wouldn't satisfy
I'm a let you finish but, I can go last like Malachi
No stressing, just asking for protection and wisdom
Though offerings are minuscule, if I hate when I give them
Trying to stay humble my stomach grumbles
I'm hungry for that bread, and they break it
But never eat it, instead they go straight to bed, like I said
Eternal sleep, eternally dead, internally weak, your soul is unique
But if you don't feed it you may get defeated, and faceless like Red, egh
Cochise if I'm on the streets, yeah calm mind, but I'm ready
If it pop off, I get knocked off, well I'm blood bought and I'm Yeti
That's all white, you can check the robes, my rags were black
That's Edgar Poe, just let it go, and be free, yee
But y'all don't really be free, see
RELT on the beat, that last letter's on Mr. T
Or, the same thing thing as the oldest wonder
And people are tripping over the mystery, but see me
I do not give a, hoot, you can go and ask Big Mama
The Fox and the Hound, lost then I'm found
What did the fox say, and no I'm not checking Fox News
Look into the mind of a k**er that shot through
Insert Schoolboy Q ad-lib, Moshpit, in this twisted brain
Don't blink, when you switch the lanes, fit the game like a size 12
That means I don't really fit, but I mean regardless
I just make it work like forced puzzle pieces
Jesus, when they hear it, their ears will start bleeding
Go against God and try to prove, then lose what you really needed
Don't get defeated, just keep retreating from sin when it's creeping
Or you'll end up receding, questioning the things you believed in
Got to keep that faith strong, there's nothing to hate on
Bitterness can have you cooking that beef with an apron
You see I have no cape on, I'm no hero, I burn tracks like Nero
They try to teach me evolution, my name isn't Spearow
Ever so misunderstood, they could never understand
I can't walk with Jesus, and hold Satan with my other hand
Can't measure up to this standard, can't measure all of this grace
They hate what I believe in, throw stones and then I FADE
