literally just wrote this to this beat after hearing TOKEN go over it like 45mins ago (still not finished and needs polishing - fwiw i teach rap/rap for a small label as my job): …I could write radio rappers rhymes in my sleep And at over 30 years…the time, when it creeps… …the more that envy eats; consuming from within So i try and remind myself: the reasons not a whim Its a passion deep within, i fashion speech from in- -side a mind, thats kinda tired, of leeches wanting in- -dustry credibility; with no actual talent Thats just factual rappin; i call it tactical malice Rappin with balance, and seeking equilibrium As an artist realize; you reap-ing what you give to them Cerebral seeds you plant, fore-stry or more a vision then? Or fuck around n cut em down; sound? Witness listening. Cuz if a tree falls, fuck; im lost in the analogy Point is, make a fuckin point every time you grab a beat Dont go rabid just to show em you so rapid when you rappin → Say something- outside ‘twisting’ - speed aint really been a talent Its id rather people understand me Even if they don’t agree; like eating with yo’ family→ It aint even fancy; fuckin speak on what you know And if you don’t know shit; keep ya volume real low… And you don’t have to tell me, bout the fuckin hourglass→ How late to the game i’d hafta make it, every hour pass Feels like eternity, but honestly, i earned my keep→ I listen, and, I’ve given wisdom, everytime i learn and teach Turn the key, it aint that easy - kick in the door In the name of Biggie, Opp’s are fickle, give em the force If you wanna make it, famous, make your own chances If your lucky enough, one comes along, GRAB IT! Some rap flaccid as a pastor at the playboy mansion Pissed cuz they came for some under-age boy action For real though, what the hell’s up with mumble acts→ Half that shit is barely music…none of it is fucking rap I know you gotta cater to ya kiddie demographics But the way you go about it; sounding hella tragic If you dont wanna traffic, in rap sing melodic But if you call yourself a rapper; ima call you on it Toxic to the culture, yeah i been called a vulture And a whole lot worse Tossin haters in the mulcher

Someone pour me up another shot of whiskey, Get rich, die young, like I'm 50, I was walking, now I'm hoppin' out the Bentley, God got the wheel, but the devil drive me crazy, Yeah' I'm sippin' out the bottle trynna have fun, Too young, too dumb, to get too drunk, But I'm just trynna live it up, get fucked up, Smoked a blunt, high as fuck, I'm star-struck, You told me you don't wanna see me doing dirty, But everywhere i go, i know my demons heard me, I don't wanna pop a pill, fuck em' perkies, Money talks, when you silent, I'm hurtin', Please don't leave me, i don't wanna go, no, Live fast, die faster, going slow-mo, Take a pic, shorty, flash, it's a photo, No TMZ, we gon' post, like it's a promo, Yeah, ima take another shot, get faded, If i don't live to see tomorrow, then today it is, I pray to god cause i be running into satan, Don't wanna talk about it, like it's sign language, No disrespect, you show respect, you get respected, Money comes in different colors, it ain't racist, If i die, I'm coming back, I'm resurrected, You lied, but i know the truth, i still respected it, I got snakes, in my grass, like I'm adam, Hit the crossroads, you gone meet the man in all-black, The devil quick to make a nigga wanna pack up, Don't sell your soul, cause you gon' burn, but it's all love, I know i may not go to heaven, god forgive me, If i burn for my mistakes, please just water me, I didn't take a chance with you, you gave me plenty, I should of listened, now I'm going thru a misery,

@@currentlyexisting31 if u like reading bars i just took like 2plus months off cuz i was doing so much work teaching and helping with other songs for work its like the last theing i wanted to do then just wrote this on a whim at like 1am in one 1hr sitting lmfao like the other night (just a funny bravado song about how i hate writing hooks cuz i like to be technical lyrically etc) Let Me Cook (2 verses w 8 bar hook) HOOK: I used to play hooky on the hooks But i didn’t want no weak points Looky looky now im cookin on the hook Got em Hooked: like dealers giving free points I used to play hooky on the hooks Tried to make strengths outta weak points Looky looky now im cookin on the hook→ White boy droppin dimes; Bird with the 3 point V1 Cant be off the hook - till ya have the hooks No Hakeem; Dream team, but i had to cook Look, yall know i got bars on bars → But have most rap stars, spat hard, from the start? → Nahhh, they let it build n build Sick of passing the rock; i shoulda ran the drills But often passed it to a singer, or a sample till - I realized hooks can get em hooked sans the skill So hungry to show; better bars i deleted → Learned repetition, aint the best edition: of whats needed I see this now; n’ turned a weakness to a strength …→That’s how every legend turned their blessings into bread Thats why real legends never act like you expect Humility within they reach, but they have to flex→ Some are sad, expect it: like the hidden kid who’s mentioned, Pre-Kendrick, back when Pusha-T got him less neglected HOOK V2 My Nan can pull a trigger; fuckin flex ya cortex… Cuz most todays rappers - just wannabe war vets→ More tecs; pure flex; i aint fit in with Americans Cuz i keep my killings on wax; like a Kendrick diss But bullies catching bullets in a pistol grippin culture At eighteen; its legal if its hidden and its holstered→ I get they feel small, but powerful when holding They Cosplay as soldiers cuz they’re insecure and broken But no shots fired, respect from the American In Newy since they knew me…i been hearin ‘let him in’ But yall forgot - i been gone for a minute Now the mission got me twitchin…→if it moves, i just kill it So if a beat moves me, i'm a smooth criminal→ Slay the beat - play repeat; and get a full listen thru→ Is the dude, a raving loon? Or is he finna make it soon? → Breaking through! I Ignite my “6th jay” like like the failed coup HOOK Outro Verse So…Did yall catch the balance of talents? → Slowing down the hook but not the brain breaking magic …Last bar on the hook; see who grasped it A ‘Sniffle Entendre” - but aint a ‘Pusha’ with ‘Malice’ → Hah; thats another ‘Big Pun’ for the sickest ones→ Ima always put it down, real ones’ll pick it up Listen up, thatJAWN tryna be the illest one→ Always finna lay it down, real ones’ll pick it up

Can you make a slowed version like this but for the non remix version of this song?
