Triumph

[Verse: Carl Angelo and The Ancestors]
Yo
Ain't no challenge I get manic
And I get frantic, I get anxious
I get active fuck yo handout
All the courage I am lackin'
When that burden is collapsin' from the world that I will captivate
That purpose I can't fathom
How my father, my mother (Yo Marvs let's get it!)
Both went farther from the motherland (Carve their name out overseas)
They oversee this legend that's in the makin'
Name himself he self-proclaimed because nobody 'bout to hold his hand
From Hollis Ave to Willow Street
His might, responsibility refined
In yo proximity you find he turn heads at his appearance
Only clearance that he needs is written within the crevices and architecture of his skin
The imperfections that it brings
A smart investor in his kin
Meditatin', manifestin'
Man I'm blessed to lose and win
I have my stress, I have my grin
I have my strikes, I have my swings
I have my nights, I have my days
I have my breaths
I had to quit them cigarettes and patterned thinkin' of regrets
I have my wings
I accept these whirlwinds
Outworkin' the rest
I'm outsmartin' who thought I was worthless
Profound on a quest to be outbarrin' the sharpest wordsmiths
Been a while since I been to worship 'cause I'm workin' these work shifts
Knowin' that I'm worth more but knowin' it could be worse shit
Feel like Davis to Anthony, built like Davis to Warwick
The way you think got me thinkin'
"How this worm slipped in my war ship?"
Your legs will falter when you walk the way that he be walkin'
He outgrew them 'cause they don't talk the way that he be talkin'
Gear in automatic, world misunderstand him
Brand him anything but down
And I ain't afraid to say sometimes I get lost 'cause now I'm findin'
When I get lost in these words I feel at my most triumphant
This is Carl (Angelo!)
