Loose Ends

[Verse 1]
How many times do niggers gotta orchestrate revolutions?
We've been handed the stick, but somehow always getting the loose-end
I hate media stories that tell the truth where the truth bends
It makes it kinda hard for the struggle to gain some new fans

Sort of like designers whose sneakers don't look like new VANS
2017 and my momma raised me a new man
I ain't even woke, I'm just sharing with yall my 2cents

Picked up the phone with the hopes that the money calling
Gripped the duffle bag, you could tell I don't do this often
Middle finger in the air, I'm conditioned to living lawless
They say numbers never lie but these pockets is talking nonsense (shit)

Slavery's a job, got to read the lines of a contract
And momma had to hustle cause poppa never made contact
That's how life works, it's hard to see dollars without some contacts

Pause for a second and let me put it in context
Regardless of circumstances, we them niggers that's on next

I remember rapping for my niggers on the playground
My momma need a house and it's tempting to take the lame route
But when it comes to rapping, I'm sorry I'll never play round
Your label engineered you, now all of you got the same sound

I'm chilling at the bandwagon, my pants saggin
Nigga I'm just rapping ass off (repeat)

[Verse 2]
For a while I was a cool calmed collected individual
I'm an asset to the game, while yall niggers get paid residual
I'm talented hommie, so the effort is quite minimal
In this mortal combat I'm the only nigga that finish dudes

I been to the top and the bottom of the totem pole
Hazey at work, like my momma when she's in overall
Yall thought that I'm wack cause I'm hazardous with the dapper flow

My momma love me and that's all I ever needed
I been deep in my thoughts, at the table is where we seated
Rap is in my genes it's no wonder you thought I seem sick
Yall niggers rode a wave, now yall niggers is lookin seasick
The swagger looking tight but the music is far from decent

The belly of the beast if you wondering where the east is
I'm a carnivore, in case you been wondering if I eat beef
I can't sleep my nigga, been dreaming of many 16's
And shorty say she like me, I'm comfortable round some thick things

It's not my fault I'm in a league of my own
She could recognise I'm a king and put her cheeks on the throne
While yall niggers is getting hustled for some seats at the dome
Niggers always doing the most just to speak on the phone

Looking at life like someone who's lived twice
Same pattern you know, pick your side of the dice
It's all incremental - the authors pencil is like the blood of a martyr
The only difference is one of us only lives when retired

Such a pity that heroes could never cherish their flowers
Until a particular hour when what was theirs is now ours
I thought the second time around I would have done this thing smarter
The anomaly of a man with most Relationships harbored
I roll the dice and ask myself what brings strength to a coward
See Obama had me believing I could make it at Harvard

But I'm rapping the hardest
Hazey rapping the hardest
I keep it easy my nigga, cause I'm just rapping the hardest
