Empathy

[Intro: Marlon Craft]

One, two

One, two, one, two, yeah

A one, two, one, two, yeah

Yo

[Verse 1: Marlon Craft]

People saying, "Craft, it's just a matter of time"

But ironically, I know that all that matters is time

I said ironically, I know the light that matters ain't lime

I put the weight all on my shoulders till it shatter my spine

See, I graduated college, empathized with the fiends though

Gathered all this knowledge, still scream, "Fuck you mean?" though

When you A1, you believe what you see, so

The Ds kill with ease and it's F the police, hoe

I been a G, never sold H, I just had a J

Shooting in the courts and them forties in the alleyway

Nice with the rhymes, never took a letter after K

Only smoked Ls on occasion when we had to haze

It's M. Craft, coming at me wrong? That's an N-O

My mans still cop peas and pray to keep his rent low

Learn to take cues, when to speak, I'll keep my head low

Learn to be who you are, the ultimate test though

I done seen a lot and I won't stop until I've shown it all

Till they all follow "He" who never follow protocol

[Hook: Marlon Craft]

Graduated college, empathized with the fiends though

Gathered all this knowledge, still scream, "Fuck you mean?"

Fuck you mean, hoe?

What the fuck you mean though?

Yeah, I said, what the fuck you mean though?

Yeah, said what the fuck you mean though?

Yeah

[Verse 2: Marlon Craft]

I done seen dudes get they face smashed over nothing

Seen a lot of fist fights that could've been discussions

I done hung out with some killers

Then kicked it with some Ivy Leaguers

Spit the hardest bars out, but also had the tightest thesis

Shit ain't really different when you see the coin on both sides

Am I the only person looking at the world through both eyes?

Do-rags with bow ties, what I hear? The most lies

Everybody looking for love except through your eyes

Yeah, so it's never been 'bout you vs. me

'Cause I see too much "You" in me to send you to a eulogy

I could shoot you down, but that mean killing all the you that's me

So we all dying slow deaths and it's too cruel to see

This empathy is fueling me, witness the buffoonery

And none of it seem true to me, elusive these illusions be

I put it where the music be, turn into a movement, see?

The mutiny is brewing, we done snoozing, this the unity

[Hook: Marlon Craft]

Graduated college, empathized with the fiends though

Gathered all this knowledge, still scream, "Fuck you mean?" though

Graduated college, empathized with the fiends though

Gathered all this knowledge, still scream, "Fuck you mean?"

Fuck you mean, though?

Yeah, what the fuck you mean though?

Yeah, graduated college, still empathize with the fiends

Empathize, empathize with fiends though

What the fuck you mean, hoe?
