Let me take your insights to new heights
Beyond that of mortal thoughts and manmade flights, I
Studied the mind like psychology. When I'm in the Mood
I stifle niggas with that Hi-Teknology
[Verse 1: Main Flow]
Could I be cursed
By a god that oversees the Earth? Enter a Heaven
As a seed with thoughts breathed at birth, life is a soul
Passing through like a ship in the night. Throughout
The galaxy, I fathomed on gripping the mic, my ill
Positions on Earth have fed my eyes so far, peyote
Visions in my mind where spirits rise like stars, redwoods
Tall as buildings, feels like I'm shroomed when my jaws are spilling
But in the meantime, I'm about the frost chilling
Inhaled crops to release, no cease, away from Beast
Watching Bosnia on Satellite East, flight back
To the Mid, result of four-hour bid, mass hid
I’ll take you for a tour while I rid myself
Of numerous stress-related messes investigated
Mex connect, rich vet, I’ll leave the West awaited
Set up a ghetto pharmacy, rest at my armory
My theological contacts are harming me
Likewise, I hear fight cries across the night skies
Sprinkle the ashes over Kenya if the mic dies
I conspire traps with prior raps, then I
Sneak Japs like illegal taps but on a higher map
Caress attentions, the flames is what I name and mention
My social history is deadly like the AIDS invention
But more visible than physical, my visuals
Worldly essence murky, defining all earthly lessons

[Verse 2: Donte]
Beginning with a seed that was planted out of greed and
Lustful needs, an untrustful deed. The first
Thing I seen was a white man in green and
Knew it was over, lived the life of a soldier
From a project kid to a local high-roller in my
Latter years, then that stage died over. I was
Bad as fuck, moms crying over shoulders to stop
‘Fore I run into the cops and get bucked. Tough
Called her bluff ‘cause I like to get stuff like diamonds
In the rough, but that shit stopped abrupt, corrupt
Cops invaded with cuffs plus mutts and commenced
To tearing up all my shit that was plush, got a rush
Them pigs turned pink when they blushed. Looked ‘em
Dead in their eyes, seen the lies and distrust, planted
Seven kis and a hefty bag of dust, but only
Two pounds bought my whole crew down, the clique
Frowned, packed up their shit and skipped town
I hopped bail, changed my name to Ishmael
From Israel, foreign exchange, planned the year
Put my home up for sale, now I'm alone in Hell
Single man searching through the “Secrets of the Sands” with hope
That my spirit might soak into the land
First group, calvary, madhouse troops
We overstand life is worth more than loot, it's for
The take, I swoop like a falcon out of aching and break
Your foundation if you’re made off money-making
