“Cain” is the debut single from aspiring Olympia rapper Mind Over MattR, in which he eviscerates someone of a higher caliber, alluding his deeds to that of the titular egocentric Cain, from the Bible of course. Not quite, though….
The song was released onto SoundCloud on January 18, 2018, three wee...
[Intro]
Mind
Back up in this
[Verse 1]
Yo
Guess it's been a minute since I spit it, says a cynic, and I'm thinking that it's true
Now I got it written, I'm permitted to say what is overdue
I been off at college and I got a lotta thoughts
All I'm tryna do is put a line through the dots
Draw a cross on the t's, pull the rhymes through my teeth
Anything I could do for this to line up to me
So first things first, man I hate the riots
We got Nazis and they runnin' violent
Killing innocents for no good reason
It's like if you're a free man, it's open season
Reminds me of Cain, what he did to Abel
The evil nature makes the world unstable
And all I got here is my voice to use
Hope I can burn more than they torches off the fuse, yeah
[Chorus]
Oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain
Oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
Put the shame to the cross that I lay
Oh, Cain, your face, it pains the name of all I have to say
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
Let me drown in your shadow's remain
[Verse 2]
And don't get me started
On how the red and blue sea stayed parted
But really I ain't one to talk politics
I lack the education to give knowledge on it
But it don't take a genius to see the strife
And leaders on all sides won't compromise
If they did, would they glorify citizens
The governments, upper class, or businesses?
I hate that I have no clear place to go
No strong leadership or a taste of home
In a world where I can't trust peers or idols
Looking for a shred of sense inside the Bible
I know that my life ain't in my own hands
But is it in God's or the leading man's?
I'm a kid, all I know's that I have no peace
And I can see it in the workplace and on the streets
Don't bother me, please
[Chorus]
Oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain
Oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
Put the shame to the cross that I lay
Oh, Cain, your face, it pains the name of all I have to say
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
Let me drown in your shadow's remain
[Interlude]
Heh
Oh, they don't want me to go in?
We'll see about that
I got some words for you
[Verse 3]
I don't like you, never have to
Ain't no virtue in the planet could adapt you
You got a big head, and a bigger ego
Always center of attention with no care for people
Have you done a good thing in the past year?
I'm sure you've learned a lot there, with your waxed up ears
Too deaf and blind to do right as you should
Letting wicked ones guide you, no eye for good
So what am I supposed to do about it?
I could leave you alone, know you're prone to messing up in there
And it would take a fool to doubt it
With you playing on your phone, Twitter knows you ain't above an area of attack
Your conscience is wack
Let bygones be bygones and focus on the facts
God put you here, tell me where is your plan?
I am tired of this yelling, hating on myself again man
[Chorus]
Oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain
Oh, Cain, oh, Cain, oh, Cain
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
Put the shame to the cross that I lay
Oh, Cain, your face, it pains the name of all I have to say
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
Let me drown in your shadow's remain
