I'm one in a billion,
I'm buildin' on my brilliance,
From the ground up,
I'm threadin' flowin' filaments,
Mental 'n' physical,
I'm fightin' on both fronts
No point hopin', the end is approachin',
And it's all done,
And I'm,
I'm spittin' in strong style,
Like Shibata, I surpass 'n' never let the pain matter,
I'm here to wreak havoc,
With my patented, full of patterned, mad passages 'n' lyrical patterns,
I made dominance my habit,
I made perfectionism my profession,
I'm not perfect but I'm the perfect combination of obsession,
Depression 'n' venom,
Passion 'n' aggression, imagination,
I'm threatenin',
Bringin' in the deafenin',
Conductin' chaos in my cranium,
Got your heads a-noddin',
Got your cerebellums poppin', with the flows I'm droppin',
Got it by the tail and I'm not stoppin',
Got the sonics 'n' phonics, sonnets 'n' promises of torrents of abhorrence,
I'm just being honest,
I weave words,
I'll pick the stars out of the sky,
I'll steal the pennies from your eyes,
I'll tell you the sweetest lies, I create to survive,
I create to destroy,
And I'mma conquer the world with these words,
From the darkness I emerge,
My lips curled,
I was dreamin' of the sickest of the wicked,
When the lightnin' above struck,
That's when my mind woke up,
My tongue conducts as the floor erupts, times up,
It's never enough,
I'm covered in rust,
I've suffered enough,
I'm risin' up 'n' it's such a rush,
But thunder separates us,
We stand side by side, two of a kind,
We make the crowd jump,
Rebuilt from the ground up,
We got the shock n the sound waves,
We're prominent 'n' we're dominant on the page,
Ink rains
When the lightnin' struck,
I've been sittin' thinkin',
This dizziness is limitless,
Flickerin' vivid images like an old film,
In my head 'n' just,
Morphin' distortin' the mundane to a morbid picture,
This existence seems like persistence,
And any form of resistance is quickly turned to fiction,
Keep on going 'n' ignore the friction,
You cant hear the shoutin' from this distance, what,
So I guess we'll just bring it up louder,
Hoods up, heads down,
Like we ain't running outta subject matter,
Stand up, stand down or stand out,
Say somethin' with enough conviction it could shatter the atlas,
Make it matter even if they batter their eyelids,
Take it up another level step it up in mileage,
Make every moment definin',
Go from grey to ultraviolet,
I wield words,
That will set the streets alight,
I'll take you with me to new heights,
From a person who wasn't even worth the time,
Just a wayward northern kid with a way with words who found a rhyme,
Now it replays in his mind,
So let the passion shine,
Through,
When the lightnin' above struck,
That's when my mind woke up,
My tongue conducts as the floor erupts, times up,
It's never enough,
I'm covered in rust,
I've suffered enough,
I'm risin' up 'n' it's such a rush,
But thunder separates us,
We stand side by side, two of a kind,
We make the crowd jump,
Rebuilt from the ground up,
We got the shock n the sound waves,
We're prominent 'n' we're dominant on the page,
Ink reigns
When the lightnin' struck,
When the lightnin' above struck,
That's when my mind woke up,
My tongue conducts as the floor erupts, times up,
It's never enough,
I'm covered in rust,
I've suffered enough,
When the lightnin' struck,
