[Intro]
Yeah
I'm more, I'm more
I'm more, I'm more, I'm more
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
What it do, what it is, what it could be
You're more blah-blah-blah, what it would be
Bluntly, I feel like all you motherfuckers pussy
Leader of the new school, they be playin' hooky
Turned king from rappin' on the corner like the rooks be
Chess game, less blame, more shame, what we need to push
We ahead 'cause we thinkin' more simpler than the hooks be
I ain't come to sugarcoat shit, whole culture got spiritual diabetes
Humanistic raps, I'm tryna supply the species
I'ma defy the theses of the peachy-keen, fit-all-in-the-box critics
Bushwick, fake-frame, lickin'-cock critics
Homie, ain't no peace treaties with me, I'm in allegiance with the truth
Tryna feel your pain like it's mine, that's a window to you, only way I can see through
Pass the sauce, let me stop preachin'
I'm about to talk my, I'm about to talk my
Let me stop preachin' to em
I'm about to talk my, I'm about to talk my
Let me stop preachin' to em
I'ma start speakin' to em, I'ma start reachin' to em
Little closed door, homie
I'ma start eekin' through it, I'ma start bleedin' through it
They gon' have to let me in, we gon' start seein' trueness, yeah
These days, I stand far away when the train rolls in, I got somethin' to lose now
I'm more important than cool now
True to me is more important than rules now
Whole lotta obstacles, I got past 'em
Used to laugh at the kid, but I got the last one
I never want the pass, son, I only lead with passion
At twenty-five, already been like nine versions of me
But see, he who speaks to you now is so, so, so much better than past ones
I been runnin' circles 'round rappers, don't make me relapse, son
My anxiety was so bad, son, I was gon' collapse, son
Nights that I thought I'd seen my last sun
I just wanted to be somebody that could last, son
I just wanted to be normal 'til I realized
The same shit bring my heart pain is the same shit that make it one the last ones of the real
[Interlude]
Yeah, live from Hell's Kitchen, New York City
Welcome to the motherfuckin' album
This just the intro, we gettin' warmed up
Should I keep goin'? Uh
[Verse 2]
This is jubilance birthed from depression
This is humanness earned from obsession
Gave my heart to my craft, started livin' for myself
If I live to impress, then I'm pressin'
Ask Kenny, we done brought pain way before we done made him sign us
Motherfuckers been congested
Every time I been less than was a lesson
Broke it down to the essence, hocus-pocused the mentions
This the cumulative effect of a new foot on the neck
Of the foolish who neglect where the trueness intersects
I'm a mutant in the flesh, born of ruthlessness and debt
One who cool with all the angels and keep Lucifer in check
New York, New York, fuck what you thought
You ought pay attention when the tension rise
Hold it together and keep walkin', I'm the tendon kind
My fear is a friend of mine, homie
