[AKAI SOLO verse]
Under no law that aligns with what I opine not functioning
These niggas fruits sour
Fabrications that it’s gone
They deflagrated the vineyard and grape yard
We in the pit outta pitches covered in stitches
Led astray by delusions of being the richest
Taking stabs for relationships that eventually become scabs
No sense secreted from the lid that sponsors such double edged logic
My self free of inhibition makes an ill opponent
Allow death to descend upon illusionists
Suprеmacists way past off shit
Crass with the superficial mix
Niggas wanna get gasping
Whеn I have not even gone in
Crash with the peripeteia whilst stumbling
It all changed when we charged with calculated clenched fists
Amiri act as impetus for my spark it blessed the fuse
Shorty ease me out my element
It's not a simple thing to do
The revolution heaven sent
Only solutions valid are ones with merit
Not for a solution’s sake
That’s a setback parading as salvation
In a suit questioning the mobility
The durability of the terrain
The likelihood of rain
Light or heavy like traffic on the train
No difference made, when we got truth established
It’s cool, We revise
Niggas getting to the nexus of they noggins
Then they be embarrassed
AKAI
[maassai verse]
Fluid like water
Washed a few demons, tried to fuck with the order
I don’t give my all to nothing finicky
Thats how u get caught up
Sacrifice my old life like a martyr
For myself, think i got it from my father
Never stagnant i don't bother
The persona-- rising in the space
I'm upon ya
When they on ya
Wiggle through the moment
For the honor of my name
Enemies will conjure up a flame
But don't want me to spread it like the wind
Wander in a game, headed to the pain to begin
Head to the beginning where it end
All the time n*ggas spend
All the times n*ggas spin around in circles
Been around in cycles
U ain't been around in my clothes
Inner bound faith when the sight goes
U can't fake how the plight move
It just make for a right move
Left room for n*ggas in the right mood
But even when i embed room
Never know when i might move
U know agility a fight move
The ability to right choose
