Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bad writers could write a best seller
And trend better
It don't mean that they pen better
For free I could tell you that they don't pen ever
They got ghosts writing for them, so they type pretend letters
[Verse 2]
Notebook king in this never pen era
Got no ink in their cartridge, excuse their pen errors
Lab in the studio, but more like 10 Dexters
Schooling all these rappers and they don't attend lectures
The got no common sense, rappers get die cent fela
The vendetta, they lend cheddar on rent pressure
So spend clever your Randela on endeavors
It's time to meet the parents and you **** Ben Stillers
Die pest tsena
Need to use their antennas
Jersey number 10 with the pen I pentsella, beggar
Learn to choose their friends better
Bad friends pretend better and good friendships end phela
[Verse 3]
And good authors could write shitty books
You on the flyer not quite really booked
Facebook made you like silly looks
All your ice really cooked
It's no surprise why you lie in your hooks
Look, I put my life in these hooks
I could spend days counting nights that it took
Jab, jab, with the right swing and hook
Mike Tys, how I'm nice with the hooks
It's a battle of the words and we don't fight by the book
[Verse 4]
Only one reason, the tongue is misleading
Won't judge a book by the one that's reading
Don't judge a nation by the scum that's leading
The poor not defined by the crumbs they eating
Reverse migration, it's the come-back season
I'm a Super Saiyan, so I come back beaming
Healing, resides where I find my meaning
Time to defines thy reason
Mind my scheming
Angels help me fight my demons
Gazing at my angel with her wide eyes gleaming
My life with my wife, I dreamed it
Only giving one cheek, I'm unlike Jesus
[Verse 5]
Can't crush my defence
Leave you in the mud like foetus
Get your head smoked by this bud like Beevis
Your favourite rappers suck, man they sum like leaches
When they meet a beast, they gonna run like cheetahs
Run
[Verse 6]
The pen is mightier than the sword
I'm striking you with the chords
It's likely you will abort
My pen ends your zen, my writing is for the Lords
My pen is heaven sent, they liken me to the Gods
[Verse 7]
The pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, my pen more mighty than all of yours
The pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, my pen more mighty than all of yours
[Verse 8]
The son of Mary and Joseph
Before COVID and Crucifix
Adding more spice to your life Masala and Turmeric
I use the ink to write alphabetics reflecting numeric
Ever since the Lunar Eclipse
I've been a lunatic
And thanks for tuning in my dear Watson that's elementary
When it comes to penning bars, put me in penitentiary
Signed the indemnity, revised the fine print carefully
The pen you took from my stationary signed away your legacy
Hustle his soul separately, crossed the T's and the I's you dot
Infinite pen strokes, no time for the writer's block
Me and my speech haven't been on speaking terms
Slitting my writs open you so can see that I bleed the words, It's me you heard
Voices of reason telling the prophesy
And it will be at the end like and apostrophe
I been the shit and I get the bag, that's a colostomy
I got my own brand, so what the fuck can you sponsor me?
Writing false stories got no respect for the journalist
And if you gonna slander my name, make sure its permanent
The ink must never smudge
And only God will judge
When this pen is in your clutch
Never grip it with a grudge
'Cause the pen
[Verse 9]
The pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
My pen, my pen more mighty than all of yours
Pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
The pen, the pen is mightier than the sword
My pen, my pen more mighty than all of yours
