Verse 1:
I stand alone in this complex
Ghost in the Shell, never fail, I prevail and accomplish
My goal and a mission, without a intermission
Don’t need your permission, you ain’t gotta listen
Little bit of rhymin’ for your noodle
Bowling for soup and a suit, spreading peace like toodles au revoir
You know my repertoire
They never landed on the moon but my hand on a star
Never cover my eyes ‘cause I’m uncovering lies
For governmental spies, uncut ties, if I die, don’t be surprised 'Why
I put my life on the line?’ you ask
‘cause I’m tryna save souls, they losin’ ‘em fast
They want me to crash like hard drives bearing a virus
Battling Osiris with the colors of Iris
Found what I’m missing, dreaming is imperative
We ain’t on the same page, I’m a different narrative
Red pill, they lied when they said death kills
People do Satan, be coming out of left field
With sites precisely, no I’m not a Pisces
But finding other fish in the sea like me is unlikely
Chorus:
Lace my Nikes getting ready for the fight, the fight of my life
There’s a war going on
And never will I run, only strong can stand alone
Lace my Nikes getting ready for the fight, the fight of my life
There’s a war going on
And never will I run, only strong can stand alone
Verse 2 (J. Rowdy):
Ah, my bags is packed, ready to get these tracks on the map
Light-speed galaxy, ain’t no looking back
Who got the sacks? And who got the doobie?
Who got [?] chick with the nice boobies?
Jordans and tatted, girl you’re asthmatic
I ain’t tryna brag but my team fantastic
I am just sporadic with the hip-hop curse
Can rock every mic and to kill every verse
What’s worse, is they don’t understand
Hyper-speed, poppy seeds is what I’m popping in my hand
Let’s stand tall for, absolutely nothing
It’s Tuesday, and I just feel like bluntin’
We feel like coming, maybe, wondering, will she be my buddy?
If it start thundering, blundering the thought that it’s past off fallacy
[?] hip-hop is [?] casualties
Chorus:
Lace my Nikes getting ready for the fight, the fight of my life
There’s a war going on
And never will I run, only strong can stand alone
Lace my Nikes getting ready for the fight, the fight of my life
There’s a war going on
And never will I run, only strong can stand alone
Verse 3 (Cayso):
I’m on track with something
Bubble gum on the bottom of school desk
This is the new threat, combatting old news
Old souls told Blew, ‘they can’t hold you back’
With a dope crew, so true, they will hold your back
If you drop with eyes closed, follow my mind yo
Smooth as your wardrobe when your mama would iron clothes
Find those hairs all that sepa-rates, me from the legend
Hay is for horses so of course it’s unimportant if I hear a couple nays
Drowned out by a chorus of “Yeah we love that, you’re bringing the love back”
“Hey, we love you see”
“Ay, why you love rap?”
so I’ma answer all questions in anecdotal form
I’ma be so full of poems
It was busting at the scenes and then entered an open forum
And believe it was super nova, you chose the one and only
That composed of many
When it spoke, heard the words coming from within me
Then it burst then the colors were bright
The room was illuminated in a shower of light
It had empowered the mic
The room bloomed like a flower in spite
Of evil towers and their towers of might
Unprepared to encounter willpower and drive
Got beef? Not me, go devour a vine
And eff a video, I’m louder than sight
Chorus:
Lace my Nikes getting ready for the fight, the fight of my life
There’s a war going on
And never will I run, only strong can stand alone
Lace my Nikes getting ready for the fight, the fight of my life
There’s a war going on
And never will I run, only strong can stand alone
