Okay I'm about to write to this it's a dope beat and it's perfect for what I have to say

[@SouthEastSJ]

ok since im here first let me say this world aint no place to raise a family kids keep havin kids aint they got nowhere to stay cant help but dream big but never really find a way empathy they dont learn through the strife every choice that they make seems to lead them less wise the days go forward as their minds rewind an the only hope there is is what i hold inside people go thru more pain than u could imagine den dey go n give birth like it never happened u aint got shit to give em except your story all your bad decisions about how u chose poorly n now dey gotta listen n fly to the glory na your more deluded than believing fake stories

[@goldenmodem8722]

Scars and strife, still painting in the night, wrong from right, left liquid, spit insight, you can get blizzard, I'm the eagle of mercy you can buzzard, or buzz off, I'm proper like, you're just a cuss word, I roll joints thick like custard, you can't even cut what you mustered, scream and cry, just I'm obscene and fly, you can smell my lust burn, and recollect on the respect I just earned

My love ain't rot, it's bearing juice, take a cloth, you sweating it now, wipe it off of your brow, now it's hot, see the sun in my footprints, get stunned from my entrance, whether in dance or entranced, I always advance, you can play sticky pants, I rock the jeans that's loose, because I'm always on the go and I need room to move, it's real fashion, but fools don't listen to me, so what's the use, my usage is being tempered with, trying to agitate the dose of my dialect, never pampered with, loving fans, just loving jams I can intersect,

[@nbatillwedie]

@sativaair She did, together with Raphaël Saadiq and James Poyser

[@goldenmodem8722]

She’s perfect, worded service with the purpose of gratuity, fluently I spit in fluids for the looming humidity of fluidity flown in circuits, it’s music not a circus , so serpents don’t usually surface until I exclude to be included in elusive wordage, worthless perverts exert their fervor with less brain than lobotomy lurking like texted excerpts, slurp the sherbets my flow is ice on flavor, snow cones and urges, splurge with merges than extend my cursive, write like no life exists until I list my verses, clean up hitter pitching splitters and deliver strike outs, foil all plots bury foes like an outbound light out, I’m a night out, till the break of dawn then pretend like nothing’s wrong with a slight ouch,

[@goldenmodem8722]

You can't prevent this, I'm too animated, suspended, suspense is a tingling factor in this presentation, in fact it's ever after, because I'm forever in the basement, underground soul you didn't know could take shaping, and I'm polishing off my statements and saving the shaved ends, so I can make sense, and calculate my theories, this is a train of thought you can get caught up in a bundle of series, seriously distraught, because so many are near me, but haven't caught wind of a single thing I taught, dim in their attic, creatures of habit, forming a flood of loss, and when it comes to hip hop, they always want to question the love that I got,

[@MitchMahoney]

Did you hear Nick Grant freestyle on this?

[@aGwEENapple]

@dresef "What we gon do here is go way back" That's what the voice was saying. =]

[@Galidorquest]

I'm glad they made an instrumental of this song!

[@MindfulMatters734]

Word!

[@goldenmodem8722]

Chance is an open door of circumstance, once it shuts I'm caught in the avalanche, shoveling through broken steps of a little dance, stopping by my waist side brush off the baggy pants, I see hip hip like a blind puppet and it can't advance, everybody wants their hands up it, but don't love it enough to pose in a proper stance, so I see they're tripping, and they can't see me cuz they're slipping, I'm 3d, they're playing Homer Simpson, side scrolling to a beat with no rhythm, just a poor speech with no wisdom, underneath the whole system, I'm sitting, ruling my own kingdom, a poet with no crown, so I'm writing like a pulse with no sound, but you can feel the message, no matter where you live I know how to address it

[@harlemsfinest141]

I love Hip Hop, homie you can tell I rapped my first lyrics when I was like twelve Girls say I dress well, and I sex well This beat reminds me of chirping on the Nextel Time capsule rap son you been warned Probaly didnt know, but now you informed Thats the right way guys lol -SkillzHARLEM

[@goldenmodem8722]

Tranquil, ducking suckers trying to put a stain on my damn bill, I pay dues and hit hard like an anvil, I'm so animated, you can stand still, I'm still agitated, faded in the back, shaded by the overlap, of the beat, give me instrumentals to complete, this my melody, this can be serenity, then me, I speak generously, you can grieve and seem enviously, perturbed, I'm a word, sentence me behind bars, see the scars on my verbs,

[@DSWIFTSWAGGA24]

I was wonderin, can we walk in the park,/ Enjoy eachother company, and walk with a spark,/ Would you trust me, if we walked in the dark,/ And could i trust you, if i let you walk with my heart,/ Gimme a chance, Really, ima good dude,/ Im a gentlemen Even tho im from the hood boo,/ You say you been mistreated by them wack lames and hood fools,/ Let me try to please you, Is somethin that you could do,/ Let me ease your soul, Is just somethin that you should do,/ And that food for thought, And its something you should look too,/ Let me take you out, So i can treat you too some good food,/ You said you never met the right guy,/ Well baby im a nice guy, It would be a nice try,/ We cant play millionaire, And you can be my lifeline,/ All i want witchu cutie is the right vibe,/ Just Bs'n but the beat cold

You just learned, as I slowly adjusted the next turn, of events, I'm the coordinator, you can fuss and be the hater, I'm just intense, and so intent, influential, you can see my content, before you buy anything I might invent, my slight resentment is sort of biased, but I'm so Midas, everything song I touch is gold, so my name reiterates the fact that I just told, bars are brick for masonry, so you can be a blow hard and forget how thick I am when you're facing me, wolves turn sheep, without the wool, trying to get it hotter than a home in the desert without the swimming pool,

If u have a message address it accordingly, If you haven't a thing to say, then you must be out to be boring me, pouring me sleep, your ounce of whine is past time, I've heard it all before, do something, more importantly, do something formally, dress up your lyrics, stop dumbing it down so they can hear it, the masses aren't hip hop heads, most people are mindless sheep and would rather sleep instead, of being awake, so fake, three dollar bills in an ice tray, looking frosty, trying to stop what I say, but then playing carbon copy when I stray, they thought I went away, but I'm back like a new summer, and your cold front was such a short bummer, give me that music you don't love her, step back and watch me do it by taking nothing good from her

[@2Muchpjp]

yeah. if sad means sick as fuck haha

[@goldenmodem8722]

pay me no attention, that's free style, here's another premonition, let me see how many hate it, the place where artistry is now became vacant, I'm still saying the same statements, rewind on the station, play me back like a scrubbing, this is something that you ain't loving, hip hop is now dumping, just a trash compact, now I act post modern in an introduction, classic after the fact, nobody supports creativity, just a bunch of blindfolds on eyes closed, while I keep kicking tracks like cracks on dirt roads, when my own asian women diss it, that hurts the most, I supported their decision to represent, now they see me, now they feel hesitant, don't want a part of this, I"m the lone rebel throwing up a fist at their parliament, part of me in the distance, parted glimpse, parted slant at the entrance, crooked eyed bitches with yellow imprints, stabbing me in the back like a cleaver to the block, she'd rather be leaving me so she can leave it to beaver to be on his cock, believe or not, is sickening she's like hip hop, she's choosing style over the substance I got, she's got no pride, only superficial glow, she's not hot on the inside, exotic animal, get back to your petting zoo, I'm not hand cuffing hoes, you can go, no one's preventing you...

Intersect and interlock, enter clothed never exposed drop hip hop like cinder block, against teen Titan foes, I massacre those who oppose my inner thought, radiate, shine and win a lot, in my mind, success all the time, even when I lost, reality bites at my inner sock, and I'm feeling pulled back, tripping over these shoes, realizing full fact, I'm true rap, you can rhyme for commercial, I stay in the grain, and gain no fame from my universal slang, I'm outer space alien race, seeing the humans pass failing in pace, slowing down and doing dumb, I'm running fast because there's many miles to the sun, that's the only one hotter, you bringing heat to the lava monster, why bother, evacuate when I nut up, see the trees in the distance get lit when my cut up, chainsaw relevance, main thoughts elements, this brain got intelligence, you copy and claim you invented this, but can't prove the ability, just gimmicky rapping on the plain of tranquility
