Tapped Out

The collapse of a star without the black hole
To get to this point I took the other way and backroads
Follow who when what, what’s a trend to me?
Leaders are lonely and certain shit ain’t meant for me
Blue check certified by the creator's hands
Take a stand
Or sit your ass down watch and praise the grand
Prime imperial I moved with some patience fam
The balance to your shaken lands
The light guides escaping plans
Out the matrix of the mockery at its worst
Force feed you bullshit until your bladder burst
I’m the asteroid to smack down and splatter earth
Kill the status quo the status code of your average jerk
Clout chasing
The route taken
Of an outpatient
My pen game sick got the hater's mouth gaping
Stuff a sock in your throat wrapped with black tape
Bad shape is the state of things so get your facts straight

It’s overwhelming now
I settled down and move different
Circle smaller now I view things from a distance
Shit ain’t rubbing me right like an abrasive cream
Focused like a laser beam
Fake it is the major theme
From the word go I showed such great esteem
Bared it all I couldn’t make this up like it was Maybelline
Poverty and block wars is where I stayed between
Incarnated black men for kids a separation scheme
-I yelled from the top it fell on deaf ears
-many nights I broke down and had to shed tears
I Cried a river that’s longer than the Amazon
Mami’s throwing besos at me respect I’m standing on
The leap of faith and at the summit is where I landed on
Y’all logged in to my tree of life but all the branches gone
The outcome of an outsider moving on
Some dealt him cruelly wrong
But love will conclude this song

Chorus
Have to throw the towel in, time to tap out
I was the first one in but was last out

How does one fit into a scene overcrowded
Where images got the real talent cloaked and shrouded

The ride was great fantastic till it lasted
Carried the torch long enough it’s time to pass it
