[HOOK X 2 - Miles Powers]
I let it off by the bar, prolly never stop
I finna doze, take a bar, so you bet I cop
A little bit asinine thinkin’ he can just rap for life
Passerby peep game, the game can make your passion die
[VERSE 1 - Thiago]
I slide through like “bazinga,” smooth as an R&B singer
Thinkin’ that they got me figured out, that's when I thrash
Like Warbringer, wonder why I got a sore finger?
Never gave a fuck ‘bout anything but a música
Truly I stay up till I crash like a cymbal
Even clappin’ cheeks I get em sounding like kalimbas
Leeches hang around, wonderin’ “what can they give us?”
Just a bunch of motherfuckin’ tools, get off my wingnuts
A screw loose, why I speak in broken English?
A New Groove like Emperor of the Inca
Syncopated mind, what did I just think of?
Retracing steps ends with me gettin’ tripped up
[VERSE 2 - Miles Powers]
Yeah my heart cold like four degrees and I’m on the floor freezin’
Eatin’ coffee beans and coughin’ wheezin’ pleasin’ all my demons
Like “fuck your team and fuck agreement,” I’m that contrarian
My heart barin’ this weight I’ma start sharin’ it
Ain’t no redeemin’ me, ain’t what I seem to be, mean to be, shit’ll be fine I guess
Ain’t nothin' real to me ‘cept what I’m still to be, kill a beat even when I’m depressed
Said that shit back in the day, still true, still packing that haze, will you
Come take a puff of this shit, I'm lovin’ this shit, I'm lovin’ the feel
[HOOK X 2 - Miles Powers]
[VERSE 3 - Miles Powers]
Give me a route out I been in my hideout been tippin’ that bottle back, back, wait
Live by my motto forgot it though gotta go get it I live in that fast lane
Homie I’m past nasty, last lap he had go for it, sure
Flip a flow for ‘em, it’s easy to me bitch I’m so on one
Splitting the difference ‘tween livin’ a lie and livin’ a half-truth, true
Yeah keep on actin’ cool, they only laughin’ at you dude
That should do, smashed your fragile ego, this rap illegal
I pack the sess then tackle Methods like a track on Tical
And haggle meager means into some bigger things
Pinky ring big as a boulder, think I told ‘em bro, go pick a team
My team? We achievin' dreams, yeah my side is raw
Have some patience dog it’s by the bar
