lyrics

I’ve fallen prey to the deceptively named
Now i’m sprawled across the pavement all decrepit and maimed
With the words scrawled upon my face in every pimple and stain
This that pain’s quinceanera, it’s a king shrinking era
It’s imperative that you sift through me like a sieve
You ain’t never gave a fuck who I am, just what I did
It’s the monetary end of wisdom, pocket your change
Voluntary embolism, keyed and locked in the same
Way of feeling, stave the healing, play an impossible game
Pray to ceilings, days concealing away the thoughts in my brain
If I caught every one passed I’d have the Biletnikoff
If I drop what’s incoming, i’ll probably be written off
Killing beats around the world, an international assassin
I’m turning a class act back into an actual fashion
I can’t function, so be my Y-combinator
What’s the point of gaining peace by bombing on haters?

I’d rather convert them than hurt them
Blather my lines, design and rehearse them
If I sound laughably fun, I could be living off capital funds
One hundred to one odds, I managed to see it with my eyes
The adage is lies but the damage is done
They think I be reaching my limit
I don’t sink, I don’t preach, I just pivot
Life be cutting me down to my size
What they don’t realize is i’m bound to be buzzin and stunning the crowd til I've won every first prize
Joining the worst guys, none saw it come
Once i’m a knight call me surprise
Don’t fight it, it’s already begun
The shot heard around the world wasn’t fired from guns
I’m hotter than suns, I should be hired for puns
I mean my wordplay is righteous
So gold I’m Midas, so cold I’m lifeless
I’d rather convert them than hurt them
Heard all my verses, they opening purses
If persons be having some fun, I could be happy with what i have done
One hundred to one odds, I managed to see it with my eyes
The bandage belies that the damage is done
