Mbtts

[Verse 1]

The apocalypse been in effect, go get a late pass

It seems I overslept my chariot

Snoozing on the other side of time

Where six was nine, on purple pine

Swinging low, let me ride, with my engines fried

Errybody loves sunshine

I'm in the shade of forest, city rat

And I'm turning eight shades blacker, he-he laughter

Born free got no master

Franklin sack, greener pasture

Lush acres, new chapter

Last heard serving rappers farm to table

Old school, Whole Foods, gotta read the label

We grown dude, stone food, ginger beer and Maker's

Lemon peel pull over pebble ice

All I see are blinking lights

Where pipedream off the wicked life

Reflecting elder sage advice, shake the dice

Let's get this money, Black

Ju-ju powder inside his gunny sack

Where he goin' there ain't no coming back

[Hook]

More brilliant than the sun (more brilliant than the) x8

[Verse 2]

You fuckin' with the indigo, body electric

Wholly unimpressed by your social media metrics

Brick and mortar rhyme for distorted time

Offline my core thrives, I'm pulling from where the source lies

Properly zoinked, there's not a stir in this black sky

I'm fire baptizin' my ball-point

Flash fry the raw leaf

Creepy cracker stalking unarmed neighbours

Where's your paper? Slave code still in effect

Make no mistake, hate runs so deep, conscious mind can't trace it

Dangerous, anxious, anger in the nation, same shit

Blame, what you think I'm goin' insane, bitch

My language ain't enough, it's getting harder to relay this

Engulf 'em in the flame, I'm just conveying my rage

Been the truth for young gods, earning they first earth scars

We learn hard

[Hook]

More brilliant than the sun (more brilliant than the) x8

[Verse 3]

I am not a threat, at least not in the manner you'd expect

I'm rocking talismans to save me from the hex

Hearing what you saying, but I'm reading subtext

Weighing if I should check you, but I probably held it back

Dippin' out in mid sentence

If you gotta ask, you'll never know

Break it down fast, spit it back slow

Historical lenses of our not so distant past inform my flow

Standing in the here and now, but hey, tomorrow never knows

I'm a OG with Kofi

They know not what they do, stay away from that clone beef

Chrome teeth, post everything, wa-da-da-dang

When they said he came, clouds of smoke, fire and noise

Open doors, triggered by minor chords

Levitating from spinning marble floors

Neither created nor destroyed, Lord

[Hook]

More brilliant than the sun (more brilliant than the) x8
