Lyrics

Oh wow
My eyes opened for another morning
Catching up on another story
Not important
But I can't ignore my task list that quiet enormous
Every time I try to make a dent
I pick my head my up and the list has more and more and
I couldn't seem to get out of this cycle so I picked the list up and I ripped and I tore it
Into a million pieces
Trusting that my intuition will lead us
Pledging allegiance nothing egregious between us
Hip hop ain't dead buddy that is my thesis
Seeing you cheating creeping over my shoulder
Jeez hold my beer where's my composure
Sheesh keep forgetting that I'm sober
Sick of a life that was just mediocre
Easy (easy) making that choice
Believe me (please I) heard that lil voice
Excuse me see when you block out the noise
And excuses I get the feeling I'm poised
It's true she choosing now
Pass me the rock while I shoot around
I'm heating up and they cooling down
The games been ruined how
It's in ruins now
I'll dust off my shoulder and start it from scratch
Make something from nothing I'm tenured with that
Save up the BS don't come here with that
But really though homie don't play me like that
I'm fully up in this too late to relax
I'm staking my claim and I'm paying the tax
Nobody can keep up and lately that's facts
Saying shit else is blatantly cap
So why are they lying to me
Exposing it's been gratifying to me
Out of them all I am trying the least
But somehow they still are the dying breed
A dying breed
The jig is up and there's no time to proceed
You realize it as soon as I hop on the beat
No one can compete they are a dying breed
Shatter the mold and I bust through the ceiling
As most of these rappers are stuck in they feelings
I can't understand them they stumbling, reeling
They think they a vibe but they mumbling, squealing
Sound like a piggy, I am chameleon
Adapt to the times as I'm capturing millions
I'm talking bout heads as they laughing and chilling
They slapping they chest as I'm rapping it's brilliant (Def)
Yeah, I was propositioned by my opposition
To dial it back they don't like competition
As if I took away they pot to piss in
Like they albums I forgot to listen
Never mind the outcome I'm atop the hit list
If they asking how come he about his business
That's what they tell 'em I am out to get rich
Do it legitimate, through with the middlemen
Vesting the money and scooping the dividend
Taking the profit, splitting the chips again
Taking they losses and hitting the bricks again
Seeing you later, wave bye to alphas
Sigmas and betas
I am a gamma mixed with omega
Fly with the camera lit with the paper
Slick with the penmanship
Bars got 'em wondering where the fuck Kendrick is
Whole city mad, swearing and bickering
Red or it's blue not what you picturing
Not any gang that the bloods or the crips are in
Donkeys and elephants talking real eloquent
Stuck at the circus we watching a shell of it
Sup with the curtains they dropping the hell with this
One thing for certain, they plotting and selling it
Stop buying the dream, I'm less and less shocked when they lying to me
Actions speak louder than words and they birds
But they sure not the type to be flying the Scene
They chirping for certain but high in a tree
Deserting the herd then they hide in the stream
Deep in the swamp, keep coming up
We giving them air, as they trying to breathe I'm trying to free
My mind from the scheme, broaden the scope
Get lost in the smoke an I walk like a ghost
I'm watching 'em close, never concerned cause they not in my zone
Dropping they hope, they trying to plead
Like please stop the pressure aspire to be
Like thee I can't measure he kind of king
Will be no successor, as long as I'm fresher I'm trying to see (Def)
So why are they lying to me
Exposing it's been gratifying to me
Out of them all I am trying the least
But somehow they still are the dying breed
A dying breed
The jig is up and there's no time to proceed
You realize it as soon as I hop on the beat
No one can compete they are a- they are a- uh
So why are they lying to me
Exposing it's been gratifying to me
Out of them all I am trying the least
But somehow they still are the dying breed
A dying breed
The jig is up and there's no time to proceed
You realize it as soon as I hop on the beat
No one can compete they are a dying breed
Yeah
A dying breed yeah
They are a- they are a- uh
