Learn to Be Strong

Industry rule number four thousand and eighty

You got to learn to be strong

Industry rule number four thousand and eighty

You got to take care of your own

Industry rule number four thousand and eighty

You got to learn to be strong

Industry rule number four thousand and eighty

You got to take care of your own

My name's spoken in vain ninety percent of the time

But stand up and write down like I write mine

You couldn't even comprehend, what I say is divine

Architect of the page, renaissance of the mind

It's my birthright, I care less for your opinion

You said you had it all under wraps, no one had nothing

You're no martyr, you're a scapegoat for generations

I'm tired of the whining, sick of negotiating

I scaled the red rock within a day and night of climbing

Wrought the human race within the same amount of timing

On the pad, a three hundred and thirty word assignment

I switch it into something I can digest for rhyming

I'm used to people letting me down, it's like a joke

Established rappers should have learned better than to gloat

Cause while they try knocking all I stand for down

I spit better than ad libbing throughout rounds

Always been myself, I seen all types change

They stand down whenever they feel the strain

They should have had this locked, but when the time came

They didn't show trust all they showed was blame

You got to learn to be strong

Industry rule number four thousand and eighty

You got to take care of your own

Industry rule number four thousand and eighty

You got to learn to be strong

Industry rule number four thousand and eighty

You got to take care of your own

Remain caught in the trap, but keep my hand in the fire

From the ashes to dust, dust to ashes admired

You lot will never follow up, what I say is divine

Architect of the page, senator of the mind

I inundate you with the weight of what I'm dumping on the microphone

With the powers of a cyclone

Uttering the verses and the letters till I've memorized the tune

I shower down on this like a monsoon

Shit has to change, from now I'm not taking a fall

Plus I'm not trying to spit when I'm hearing them call

They cry wolf, try to push the burden on me

Always trying to send letters like I owed them a fee

But still I've been denied, I just take it in my stride

I know it's hard for some just to comprehend the liveness

I prize myself to crush a rhyme with stealth

Hold the lines misspelt, with the cards I'm dealt

I crush you imbeciles, I used to care, but not now

You lost out, too much fire in your mouth

So if you wanna see caps falling for gloat

You're just H2O types, you're not thicker than bloat

You got to learn to be strong

You got to take care of, you got to take care of

You got to take care of your own

You got to learn to be strong

You got to take care of, you got to take care of

You got to take care of your own

You got to learn to be strong
