Say Amen

Truth so heavy it could rumble the earth

I dunked paint brush up in a bucket of words

Ain’t nothing interrupting the urge

Might cut you worse than unguarded love when it hurts

Try to hold it in and my muscles will burst

Do an Incredible Hulk through my shirt

A verse make an old lady jump up in the church

Pass a plate around pulling bucks out her purse

Foremost and first my hunger and thirst

Is not for no blood-stained paper but my love to be heard

Reap what I sowed in the earth

Now watch what emerge out a soul that’s disturbed

Leaning on the very last nerve of you scary ass herbs

Fake thugs and arrogant nerds

Fuck no homo you a no home owning old grown

Unsigned chump month behind on your car loan

You got balls looking down on me

Or got a mirror on the floor trying to find Ali

And dressed flyly but so afraid to soar

You’re all dressed up and got no place to go

And so play a roll there’s no hope of living

More like go broke pretending

Your whole image is imagined I manage

Low expectations high standards

Hip Hop is the legacy of the jazz kings

Kick rocks I’m one of the last standing

Last thing I do is overstate the obvious

Mainstream poppiness underground sloppiness

Dumbed down thuggery and pussy hungry consciousness

Revolution for sale greedy communist

Seinfeld rap your show about nothing

Poetry played it’s all about production

Trying to get placements play like you’re famous

Ain’t added greatness to nary a playlist

Take this bitch take offense

Or if it don’t apply let it fly say amen

Time’s up on y’all posturing imposters

I don’t give a damn if you’re starving or copping Oscars

Out here grinding or floss in your ivory towers

I don’t give a shit about your pants or how you rock em

I ain’t bitter or backpacker or conscious

Just want y’all the fuck out my ear with that nonsense

From the office of Ali and Jake and them

If you feel me raise a hand say amen
