SMOKING MIRRORS

[Intro: Ransom & MadeinTYO]

Tokyo

Turn me up, turn me up

It's time to fight the good fight

Huh, you know?

They say cowards never start

The weak never finish

I was never suited for the bottom

So it's only right that we sever ties, ha

Let me paint my pictures

[Verse: Ransom]

You ain't lead the way cause they didn't trust you

Ran the streets and realized chasing money's a different hustle

Quick to tussle cause finding my peace just didn't fit the puzzle

But if you never heal you gon' bleed on thе ones who didn't cut you

Prisoner of all thesе perceptions that you ain't living up to

Got it all figured out 'til you realize you ain't lived enough to

You should be the hero in every tale when your kids discuss you

Life's a bitch but nobody ever told us it lives to fuck you

Damn, oh now your ego is scarred and bruised?

It's hard to lose but this motion picture is cause my art is moved

The hardest news, they say that you can't control what your heart pursues

You'll rest in peace if you start to snooze, these are the rules

I paint pics but they still say my art is cool in these articles

I move far but niggas could never say that I'm far removed

Hm, I shed my light in the darkest mood

I'm harsh and cruel, I'm liable to off the tool at your toddler's school

I'm a new man, time to start leading the blind

But trying to change the world is a harsh reason to rhyme

No rhyme or reason, believing I'm Ali in his prime

But my last fight gave me the shakes like Ali when he died

It's child's play when you talk treason and crime

'Cause my last night gave me the shakes like Charles Lee when he fried

Damn, watch a god bleed from his eyes

Y'all ain't finna ride so just pass me the car keys and I'll slide

[Outro: Ransom]

Yeah, damn

That sounds so good

It's beautiful

Tokyo, take us out

Take us out, yeah, yessir
