[Verse 1: Ransom]
I'll tell you what's hell to me, livin' life seldomly
I'll make you feel these bars like you sittin' in a cell with me
Tell me what you felt in me
Your talent hits a target no one else can hit
A genius hits a target no one else can see
Play them trick cards that you shuffled and you dealt to me
Higher than the twelfth degree, listen, I can help you see
You wanna live life? You gotta do it selfishly
If you don't take care of self, how you think you helpin' me?
Talk about my money but I never really felt the need
When you pass, will your pockets guarantee you're well received?
Used to use my iron for my sandwiches to melt the cheese
Now I'm on an island with the cannabis, you smell the trees?
Words so vivid that you probably think you felt a breeze
Huh, I'm aware of all my selfish needs
Look, but I ain't done exploring your mindset
These rappers be ignorin' the concepts
In order to find depth, you gotta know more of the context
Don't run out on the floor when there's time left
Don't test these ex-cons, if you don't know the score of the contest
'Cause it'll take more to define death, what lord to defy next?
They callin' me the lord of the rhyme sketch
But I ain't turn water to wine yet
They say I'm the old Nas, but actually I'm more of a prime X
A better way of sayin' that I'm blessed
Yes, the poems were the hell of a mean streak
'Cause I done been through hell on these mean streets
A felon that's knee-deep 'cause this dirt that I fell in is knee-deep
Alert with this venomous free speech
The elegance he speaks, intelligence I relish to teach each
Reach for your piece if you ever intended to reach peace
Why would you fail if I'm gon' tell you the cheat sheet?
Only way you can win is be a failure to defeat, ah
Value the art of war 'cause that's what I eat, sleep
Takes one hell of a man to understand when to retreat
I'll take my time, I know you new to these virtues
I'm assumin' your first view is two-minute verse clues
Or maybe you heard news that I was the first dude
To go viral on this virtual reality
Hurts fools and casually I carry the worst tools
Maybe that's formality 'cause sadly the Earth's screwed
[Chorus: Ransom]
In memory of, if you enjoy hatin', envy the love
Just keep your eyes on the friendliest grudge
With a envious hug, a live wire, I'm the energy's plug
Holdin' my baby while I'm soaked in my enemy's blood
[Verse 2: Black Chakra]
They won't call you a prophet until you profit
They see the bank but not the hate you had to deposit
Cocaine was the karma to break our creative process
They mixed the Black with the white, you know the logic
Like young Sinatra, I wake up like God guarding a garden
From snakes since Genesis, less Vega, more saga
More savior, you safe from your situation, blessed be you
I've seen SUVs turn SVU
When the bullets rain down on you, SWV
Or we wrestle every day, WWE
Like move the rock or your tombstone cold, now we back to 'caine
'Cause nothing heartbreaks kids like daddy needing a super kick
Cruiser weight dealers lookin' for something new to flip
End up cooking in a stew that'll challenge your heart foundation
Dodgin' bulldogs and sharpshooters how mama raised us
I was an outsider, I had the razor
RIP Ramon, don't wanna die chasin' spit
Vagabonds making homes out of the cardboard dancers breakin' with
You either beat streets or you facin' shit that will break your spirit
The ancestors hangin' from wood vines are pain, these Jason lyrics
Made it through them trees to kill you with ease, these Jason lyrics
Matrix lyrics 'cause it takes a pill
Or a blacksmith that can jade a nigga and break his will
I made it still with a movement that exudes this
Ruthless nuisance escaping the nuisance birth
Pay me in attention, you might get more than my two cents
I can smell envy and hate, it's too sense
Untouchable for my opps to devise
I'm healthy 'cause I live a sick truth, you know a hospital lies
For that, I send my enemies love
I let 'em all drift in a medley of drugs
When them sparks start flyin', I bet they won't envy the plug
I am but an amalgam of your outcomes
In memory of
[Chorus: Ransom]
In memory of, if you enjoy hatin', envy the love
Just keep your eyes on the friendliest grudge
With a envious hug, a live wire, I'm the energy's plug
Holdin' my baby while I'm soaked in my enemy's blood
