My mission is primitive I need to make dividends By age 6 happiness fell to oblivion Got a baby brother upbringing about as rough as mine Tryna save his future so I'm monstrous when I'm spitting lines Half cracker, half something else I never learned about Born and raised a Californian nurtured so I wouldn't pout Even in the face of poverty keep on moving Lies and hate bred me so I felt nonhuman Always tried to stay silent and get away But when the whole house is just one room you can't escape Zero times of happiness, it's a dilemma ain't it? 9 years a walking tremor but he never fainted Just shook, terrified of even being alive Everyone was venom made it hard to survive Pick your poison, well that led to me growing up quick Junior high raising Nick since my mom felt sick Everything was my fault, I could do no right Stuck inside a room full of yelling every night One day I got out, but I broke my moms heart Just to save myself, I had torn it apart But if I didn't things would be so different Id probably be on the streets by myself smoking spliffs and Tryna slang whatever I could get my palms on Tryna get more money than a f**ing rom-com Romulus because id betray anyone for cream its tragic Lucky I made out so that sh** didn't happen But still hate filled wanted everyone in sight dead Take anyone's face, imagine it wet with bright red Started listening to rap as a joke, thought it was dumb Then tried to mimic them and realized that it was fun Got into the thick of it started penning my own bars Now I appear to you as the scar among the stars Hook: Mantis the new antagonist( Who?)
