WEST AFRICA TIME

[Verse 1: A-Reece]
Woke up in the plane
We just landed somewhere above the equator, I'm smokin' Triple-A
Ballin', hittin' triple-doubles every game
Bearin' the fruits of my labour, I gotta say
It got me feelin' like Carlito, I could spit an apple in your face
Numbers doin' far better than they projected
Labels use my work as point of reference when I drop a record
Keepin' up with me just got 'em lookin' desperate
Keep my еmotions and the business separatе
When it's time for dealin' with the unexpected
No need to be duckin' the pressure
No, I am not that nigga Rivera, but I'm with it whenever, wherever
Took a lot of effort to hold it together
I know they wanted it severed
Broken in pieces, gone with the wind, and forgotten forever
But don't forget I just made you remember
Here to continue the legacy of the dream like Coretta
Members only in the mecca of winners
Only nigga realer than me is the one in the mirror
It should be obvious, we not some beginners
I think it's obvious I'm up against quitters, liars, pretenders
It's gettin' old, I'm growin' tired of you niggas
I bet somebody hired you niggas
Startin to feel like it's a curse that I inspired you niggas
I know this lifestyle inspired your writtens
You ain't a tough guy, retire that image
Really a master at this shit, just admit it
Really a hazard, goin' ape like Gibbons
Really had it, lost it all, then got it back like I didn't
Yeah, focus on the love and abandon the hate
Diamonds in my ears dancin', lookin' like Kida The Great
One of the best to ever do it, it's not a debate
Never thought I'd live to see the people admire the fake (Never)
Yeah, niggas goin' live, start doin' the most
End up playing possum real life when us niggas approach (For real)
Yeah, shit is deep, you either sink or float (For real)
And if you didn't know, then now you know

[Interlude: M.anifest]
Okay, this be my cue
Chale, we move

[Verse 2: M.anifest]
Yeah
I'm a solid dude that's been in solitude for many centuries
They don't know where I'm at, but they mention me
Tension me, never
I'm quite clever with these villainous quotes
The Kobe approach, I ate them with that 2-4 jersey, the boy too certi'
I choose violence, I'm cersei
My skin tone Stormzy
But the train of thought is not murky, you heard me?
I kiss my teeth and speak my piece
Too many Visas in this passport for me to be on a leash
I never came to appease, my nigga
I'm on a beach, at peace
In Seychelles where the sea shells whiter than teeth, capeesh?
The fashion and passion, words are inadequate
That's why I'm postin' pictures, no caption and watchin' anime
Venture capitalist rappin' shit
R&B greasy, Chris Breezy couldn't catch my drift
Articulate, immaculate
Go against the god, that is sacrilege
Get you a coke and a smile and paint with acrylic
Uh, indulgin' in Holy water
Been stamped across many borders
The king's daughters record us
The peasants are givin' orders
Topsy-turvy, the world is
We pleasant in many quarters
But if you ever do cross us, you'd wish our parents aborted
Huh, and I keep rising on the Dow Jones
Wall Street or Sweden these mans they know my stock, homes
And back home, I'm known as the god MC, the standard for longevity
My clarity is legendary, my specialty is weaponry
Notable for quotables
I used to raise these boys to men, jagaban, badder than
A-Reece my next of kin
I stood next to kings, the god now
So when you skeptical and in doubt, praise the lord now, ASAP

[Outro: M.anifest]
Jozi lights, Accra nights, keep shining bright
Abi, you know
Bless up
