Low Viscosity - Youth In Revolt (Kendrick Control Response) lyrics

We ain't got the same production value or resources But I'm goin' in deep, I see reefs and sea horses I am light, all in my presence be enlightened Lead you with the might of my Trident, Poseidon But I've got more than three points for you to chew on I'm givin' a type of service to refurbish the furniture we put our shoes on The upholstery on these musical chairs is getting ripped up Too many rappers sittin' down, just spittin' sounds, get up Cause I'm camped out with a pack of pens Concentration is my chamber til' I'm ga**ed out Way back when I looked like an Aryan, I visited Dachau And like a visitation from an alien I came back with my cranium maxed out Megamind Universal domination, that's the final episode of our mega grind We in Sega time right now, genesis of the dream we cast out To be the last out After practice I'm still in the locker room reading playbooks I slay crooks And time thieves But I steal nights For divine sleep Cause what is beauty to a rapper man? If you gon' review me go and take a Ramadan Take a holy month, read Sanskrit Then see if my dharma really harms a single soul or if it stands with Our goal to be the greatest of the age I'm poppin' off the page like a mage Lyrical wizardry Meet me on the roof with a fiddle A little Marc Chagall imagery Expressionism for the common people, you don't get it, see If you were to paint me, I'd be “The Scream” and “Starry Night” combined All colors involved, grab your brush and soak it in light Might test your resolve, I revitalize the spectrum Of humanity, like Centrum Multivitamin tool for the multitudes I'm a Swiss Army Knife and then some And this army life is grim son I've got the Reaper as my teacher, payin' Hades for his wisdom Cause my fate is ultimately same as his one Or her's, we're equalized by a hearse So forget it, I'm covering seven minutes with a verse k** it so hard it will never die, sever ties to seven lies I'm too young, too smart, too true to be televised Too gentle, too loving, too honest, “They'll eat the kid alive He's too great to play in this industry and be still alive,” There ya go, seven lies I severed ties to What do you want next, a freakin' epic and a haiku? Alright dude, here's a 5-7-5 for you: “Winter comes swiftly When the snow falls, it bites you But sunshine lifts me.” There, I supplied you And I'm gettin' high on my own supply too like “Man The Odyssey of Low Viscosity is epic! Tell Homer this aroma makes his poem smell septic!” I'm pepperin' the skeptics with bombs like K Dot on twitter trends Get me to the Source mag cover, cut out the middle men Man, if it's only been a minute then get the meter maid I'll be parked here infinitely so see to it that she is paid My mind is made up and I'm laid up where I see the rain/reign From a god's eye view I'm a god, little G Capitalizing with The Big Guy who Keeps my spot in-between A parking lot and a zoo I greet the cons and gimmickry So no response can ensue The concrete jungle, that's true But dreams are not made here, they are slayed here And even if Alicia has the Keys Jay Z's got the game locked with his great Roc Nation crew So what's a new rapper to do? We'll take the i-d that we do have to the end of Stay Flu.. Cause no i-d just makes for sick and dangerous travels Let the story of L.V. begin, let my D.N.A unravel And grab ahold of at least a handful of avid souls And take the paper we're makin' and quit makin' these rapid folds Treat it calmly, and make an origami rabbit hole with me Now that we're in it, what insights do you behold and see? We don't need to throw money, we need to flow money Pipeline it to a wiser kind of industry Like how to actually live and be happy with no money “Oh no get a gunny put a hit on this kid! We've got a youth in revolt!” Tell Diddy this is my revolt and I'm the Truth on a colt Ridin' by on a high horse that can lay down I have pride in my ability but humility still takes the crown My face is down so my halo shines I pay no mind to fatal rhymes I cradle my fate and time in a ladle that's clearly labeled and made of maple This way my fable stays stable, it's a staple Storytelling is my crop, my crutch, my cane, but I'm able/Abel And I've got a cape, I'm Cape-Abel/capable The young hero you'll soon see on cable With or without a label, I'm dealin' from the gut, right from behind my navel To the top of your table, see what's up Through your third-eye/i Pad you might have or lack Intuition, that's the topic, you can't stop its comin' back The people want answers, the cure for cancer is shadowed over in black We've been black-bagged and brainwashed and zip-tied You risk a fist to this eye if you decide not to live lies But vision is not a matter of physical sight Bruce Lee was the master cause he fought a mystical fight I mimic his might, so I might unlimit my mic-Control It's a System, shout out to Ab-Soul I've got that spiritual force in my stomach also and I'm past goals Found a quicker way, I'm past tolls Waiting for the world to catch up We must heard ourselves, shepherd your brother, go fetch em I'm fed up, I don't need feeding I've led ya and I'll keep leading I apologize for the delay but this is here to stay I'm here to say somethin' worth repeating I only want to spit a written that is worth reading And I know this requires a burning desire and willingness to take beatings But I'll keep proceeding, I'm teetering on the brink of succeeding I'm feelin' this wave of glory shower down upon the earth we walk on Kings, queens, and pawns It's all the same water, same sun, same fodder No Cannon on the track but let this be the dawn of all that's Modern and true, solder the two Make them synonymous I'm runnin' for Miles like Desmond in the Animus True identity anonymous And my sins are unanimous I'm on to this plan of his Taking leaps of faith and raiding lairs of Romulus Translating prolific but fading hieroglyphs off an obelisk I marvel at what's marvelous This puzzle, I'm solvin' it I want to know the scope of Horus I'm not into horoscopes but I live next-door to Taurus I'm the ruler of the third house Communicate or get out, I have Aphrodite as my spouse Cause I'm Hermes I'll make sure they've heard me But please don't shoot the messenger, these winged feet don't deem me worthy I'm just quick to grow with this I move Swift like I was Taylored for it And I stay aortic Take the music to the heart I put the “art” in “artery” Like Pac I'll stay to report this I don't pour my story sorrily In retrospect, everything could be said better But starin' through my retro specs, I'm feelin' like a trend-setter There's no banning the rays of this wayfarer I pack light, and stay away from day terrors You know the nightmares that some call their lives? I keep those people at bay with garlic chives Cause they a bunch of blood-s**ing demons Hungry for a dream to eat and Believe me, they'll eat it, I've seen em Tear a great idea limb-from-limb And the only way to beat em is with a thimble of whim That's all it takes to win and defeat em We see em off if they're too soft to rock with us No misconduct if you wanna walk and shock with us Only the conductors are training this relentlessly We on track to engineer a new century You sent for me? Well here I am, at your service With my wordplay, I don't play around, though on the surface Of this earth I'll make sure when it's my turn I don't serve em with a stern face Don't want to mispronounce my fire like a furnace I'm dancin' around, smilin' like I'm keepin' a secret, I am What's the secret? I am They don't understand my lines They might as well be standing under them cause they go right over their head every time A clever guy said, “To be great is to be misunderstood.” I'm speakin' in parables like Jesus cause I can and I should So one day they'll say I could and I did That I took a good shot and I bid In the not-so-silent auction I spoke up and bought a great concoction Of respect and love I can't' repay by just talkin'
