I Swear

[Chorus 1: Royce da 5'9]

I swear I swear

To give em every line like I'm runnin out of time

When I'm out of time I say I came, I saw, I conquered

I'm a monster, boy look at here

I see something nobody has seen, nobody has seen...

So I guess it's on me

I swear I swear

[Verse 1: Royce da 5'9]

'77's the year I literally crabbed up in here

To raise hell til God giveth me heaven

It appear I suffer no fear

His presence is real in wisdom

Programed to murder and seize and kill the system

To build if tow down been build

Was told to let you know how it would feel

The signs say slow down, we yield

Roll down the blinds say

Writings on the wall like Beyonce

But if it's in your blood, you ain't beefin', you the entrée

So I say lay down, since I trade it, 10 pounds around me

Honestly, I done seen raped off themes

Bodies scraped off the concrete, face off hits

Separate, we rockin and rollin with dead weapons

If you ain't smelled that machine gun

Fuck from dumpin Ledd Zeppelins

Dead testament's dead with some weird

Cholesterol bagged up in the care of someone

Viet western

[Chorus 2: Swish]

I swear I swear

To give em every line like I'm runnin out of time

When I'm out of time I say I came, I saw, I conquered

I'm a monster, boy look at here

I see something nobody has seen, nobody has seen...

So I guess it's on me

I swear I swear

I swear man

[Verse 2: Swish]

Ayo listen

Ayo in'82 I was born to a lotto head

So I spit to do numbers, so I can get this lotto bread

Best news I ever got came the day that Lighty died

So I write know that my only enemy if life is time

In time they say the struggle is respected

And another man's pain can put it all into perspective

Overcame a lot and pop told me to buckle up

Every odd I had to fuckin nuckle up, so I know what is what

Yea so I beat the beat til we in mourning

And pray the word flood the block like Isaac in New Orleans

Young John fly the death, kamikaze shit

And I swear to blow it down, Hiroshima, Nagasaki shit

[Chorus 3: Bishop Lamont]

I swear I swear

To give em every line like I'm runnin out of time

When I'm out of time I say I came, I saw, I conquered

I'm a monster, boy look at here

I see something nobody has seen, nobody has seen...

So I guess it's on me

I swear I swear

[Verse 3: Bishop Lamont]

The 1978 was my release date

Executive produced by Richard and the Raymond

With no containment site, they spit the baby's brain

What's the blueprint for brilliance? The zillions

Partially insane, a little black boy

Kinda strange, a little awkward

Born on Halloween so he was meant to be a monster

More life anals while welding the gauntlets

Sick 6, I've had a 6th sense by Aby Joe Osmond

Grew up seeing deaths so murking you is no problem

Been to hell and back, I spawn that before I fall in

I keep the heat but heat to burn, we walk in crematorium

I'm old school, got tools like builders emporium

Don't make me show your real picture, Dorian Gray

Your whole style is baloney, sodium nitrate

Seeing 2 bars, I'm hard as crow bars, you suckin dicks

You can't go hard with candy bars, you fags is on twix
