Stressed With The Best

[Verse 1: Marlon Craft]

I let the vision expand, word to Lasik

They wish they could move with this love, word to hatred

When advanced get hard, most people return to basic

Get further from peace the moment you start to chase it

My past filled with strife and woe, I wouldn't erase it

For the right to blow, for hype and gold, to be crooked adjacent

Before the fight can close in my book of pages

The rules I wrote in it are the ones thеy gonna play with

Your energy a non-starter, word to Jamal Crawford

No disrеspect to Jamal Crawford

But dudes try to hop around behind my back like I don't see it all awkward

I get that you afraid, you talking to the godfather

Pound for pound I'm like if A.I. played in China

Dudes the type to act rookie but can't escape the minors

Dudes the type to act pussy and never ate vagina

Mwah, I'm chef's kissing it

Still hate a hypocrite more than somebody who doesn't give a shit

Yeah, searching for someone to be consistent with

Everybody switching up, take the script then rip it up

When it gets to scenes that they wrote but don't like living in

Far from fearless, but I'm peerless

If the real is back, then motherfucker, I'm the rearest

I'm past the point where their ignorance is endearing

I look you in the eye while I take the flame to this here bridge

Fuck validation at the cost of toxicity

Every second, that's how often thoughts get to me

'Bout to let 'em go though, finally got the drop mentally

So let me be, yeah

[Chorus: Marlon Craft]

I just wanna free my mind, yeah

I don't wanna think too hard, no

I just wanna live my life, yeah

But if you wanna play my card, yo

I could be stressed with the best of 'em

With the best of 'em

I could be stressed with the best of 'em

With the best of 'em (Look)

[Verse 2: Oswin Benjamin]

The God done put his heart in it

Mitchell & Ness with the punch-ins and by y'all swing, man, I can tell it ain't authentic

The art done been augmented, William Paul Mitchell

These lyrics hit like a lecture, still a professor at large with it

Still a nigga been spot on, dawg

Keep an eye on that inner circle, those ones'll get you targeted

Mm, it's a two-fold entendre but they won't all get it

"Spot", "dawg", "inner circle", "target", pfft, forget it

I'm back, listen, you lack vision, it's in a transition

Urkels turn Urquelle and start to act different

My reflection lacks fiction, I seen a Jekyl tryna hide

'Til I decided to see the good and the bad in him

Mm, I feel the type of stress that come with excellence

Impurity refinement through the fires in my regimen

Hey you, you know that I'm gold in my element

So periodically they check this alchemist's table for evidence

It's stressful

[Chorus: Marlon Craft]

I just wanna free my mind, yeah

I don't wanna think too hard, no

I just wanna live my life, yeah

But if you wanna play my card, yo

I could be stressed with the best of 'em

With the best of 'em

I could be stressed with the best of 'em

With the best of 'em

[Outro: Oswin Benjamin]

Yo, lemme, um

Lemme know what you think about that shit

That shit was too tough, bro, I had to write to that shit 'fore I went to sleep

I dead woke up and recorded that shit 'fore I brushed my teeth, nigga, that's how important you are

You understand what I'm saying?

Hear that? (*Water running*)

That's me getting ready to brush my teeth right now

Just wanted to let you know, alright?

Let me know how you feel about this shit, though

I mean if you fuck with it, if you don't

Any adjustments you need to make, my nigga

Let— Let me know, bro
