Involved

Hands callus hard work is a talent

blood on my jeans raw earth on my palate

develop taste for the sweet in the sourness

I see how it is now I speak for the powerless

in victory I write a speech of empowerment

learn the difference between the meek and the cowardice

see I don't live like a Sheik in a palace

on a peak in the mountains let me keep this in balance

I live somewhere between the streets and the calculus

somewhere between a voodoo priest and an alchemist

paralysis about as deep as your malice

eat a shroom grow a hundred feet like Alice

I'm analyzin who I'm chiefin my flower with

eye on all the people surroundin him creepin out the Mist

trippin off of treason out the lips

got to watch what did he say cuz he the counterfeit

for now I'm a fall back 'til it even out a bit

do whatever you want bruh, just leave me out of it yuh

 

  

you can say that you're ballin but we know it's all rented

credit card debted

I ain't involved in it

Portraying a false image and lying claiming you authentic you fraud bid-ditch

I ain't involved in it

So if you're all finished using your talent that's god-given and call it quits well

I ain't involved in it

Tell Bennett I ain't in it, they callin me Paul it's y'all business I'm sayin

I ain't involved in it

 

 

Deep in the fog of war where many die and men are dogs

the petty call upon the genocide of pedagogues

I've been a cog in the machine that never spins at all

I've been a pawn I've been a Peter boy I've been appalled

I've been an eye upon the needle when I stitch and gauze

I've been an open wide receiver when I get the ball

the shit will hit the walls hit the fan hit the Stalls

the kid they call the best is tripping off fentanyl

see I ain't in this to retire off of quick applause

I got into the game to energize your inner thoughts

I'm with the cause, armed and ready ridin win or loss

fire up the pen cuz y'all been dryin up like menopause

I ain't trying to get involved you wanna break a rule, bend the law it's fine, pray to God at synagogue pray that I fall like biggie smalls, maybe God 'll forgive us all or, maybe not Ricky Ross yah

I can predict your fate, I seen 'em runnin round fuckin up in different ways bustin then it Ricochet duckin when they hid from fame, you want to quit the game I promise you fuckin with me 'll be the quickest way

boy I don't skip a day, and I don't sit around thinkin that I'm greater than I am and solicit hate, if in your face fit the frame get in shape you're making a big mistake and I don't want to participate
