Simba

[Verse 1]
Sleeping all your life dreaming of trying things
I just took my first nap as the lion king
I just looked what hurt back when I was dying felt
Like I could never be a star now I'm O'rien's belt
Mid 90's bred the kids that were left for dead
First one to see the fall is he that met the ledge
Given life to the street with no help from greg
Radio was my way out but I was prepped instead
To go through it I spat like I was special ed
Magnificent my sentences are intricate not best compared
To nitwits in these businesses my premise is over your head
Like umbrellas and dumb fellas who met the lead
Duck, ducking the goose, you loose and hope for bread
You flying south for the winter cold weather dark nights and potent red
Born in the slums raised by the red light
Woke till the morning sirens and headlights
Connoisseur of problems cuz swallowing pain constantly
On A tour of my own mind tryna build a bond with me
My mama want me to work for them I want their monopolies
My ex want to move on I'm not the one who's stopping me
My friends no longer fond of me, telling I'm hollywood
Deaf when they talking jams like I'm signed to good
18 felt like I seen the world at best and worst
Should I take over or wait till it get better first
You hear A verse and almost think that I never curse
You're blown away I wonder why my words are deeper more to say
Work like I never seen a dime when I'm currently
Converting foreign currencies tell amounts in perjuries
Never let em know your worth, or they'll buy you out
Never let em see you sweat or they'll try you out
In the smoke holding breath so when I'm announced
I can hit the stage and prove that I am higher now
Higher mind, perusing through this light of mine
Cyanide my contusions help me find the sign
Sayonara my intrusion is personified
As a egotistical hoodlum or a dying god
Haha was that the gospel of him
An awful attempt to aloft to Olymp-us of America hostel events
Trust another Eric be across from Rakim
This time it's Eric C. call that ish progression
I'ma step above the best and just a step away from excellence
I'm a step before twelfth and just addicted to my presence
I'ma wreck before wealth hope this wealth will make me reckless
Gold on my necklace good wood on my pendant, Chao Pack we best this
That independent living
Welcome to the premise where we don't waste no love on women
Everyday I wake up as a cynic with a plan to take over the business
If I don't make I'll be driven, uncomplacent to this prison
Never been aching for minute, better off faking had no feelings
Rappers take the truth and bend it, then I take truth to clinics
When the truth dies then I become it and you succumb to the realness
Absent body present spirit, my great father is Mufasa
I'm the long awaited master and this is return of simba
Forget it I'm a Crosby my grandfather was Alonzo
My real father's name was Eric and Chaos was all that I know
I was grown up in the silence, conversation mi no hablo
I was raised behind the violence super Grover super Gonzo
Bullets flying and I liked it parents fighting till their psycho
In a cycle never slept or saw my eyelids I could try tho
Let the sirens be my guidance, in this darkening alliance
With my heart and my defiance, and my pursuit of a tyrant
Awaken the sleeping giant, kill em without even trying
Silver for your second place this mixtape better go diamond
[Hook]
Baby from the middle 90, what you mean illuminati
Living grimey still will find me, realest ever feel my body

I'm the man of the year. Yeah

Trick I'm on it if you find me, 25/8 365 and
I am sitting where it's shining this my spotlight because I been
The man of the year . . Yeah

[Outro]
Stick up, eyes on me I'm the lustering enigma
Cyclone he take a spin and quickly pickup
Rise only to become the new aristo- crat
Bygones see and rely on me to hold the torch and keep the flame
I abide all three, Chaos play ya'll stay on riot
Mayday Takeoff Chao Tyrants
