V1
All gravy when you flow like water,
Dead poets in me watch the ghost might haunt ya
when a poltergeist shows his light flex through the mic,
they get shook as I glow in light
Like Buddhist monks, inner peace watch out my soul can fight
fast hands a young Dolemite don't identify on no corporate plight
Pen honed steel on a blacksmith wheel sword to slice
hard stoned as a Gorgon's sight,
Adore your life stand back on a cash grab,
Crash land watch the wreckage on your dash cam,
Best throw them crap tapes in the trash can
slept on me sling dirt I'm that Sandman...!
With some, pep in my step catch a playa so fresh
seen through your rust like a fence made of old mesh
Cold yes, best don't forget it, quick strike like a holstered weapon
Execute (Blawwwo!) its how it is!

V2
Young Black suburbanite, heard the urban plight
I dont claim what I'm not on the mic
learned from the N.Y legends, who merchant writes tales
with a purpose life, bringing strife to the surface light,
Real hip-hop terraformed the globe
Our old poets left the codes to restore the soul, its love show it,
Transmission from ethereal visions that's why I dodge from material systems
if you hear me you with it,
Greed driven that's the theory of wicked, I evict it,
Snake charmers deceitful and skittish, Bet I crypt it,
But a bit of "dough" don't hurt, Homer Simpson,
Greatness, "cocky" in my name, like a Dickson,
Gravy when you flow like water
they don't do it like you get supply from your farmer
not that pasteurized crap too raw for the pastors eyes,
tell the father I'm the true divine mastermind,

VERSE 1 25
I'm from a place where them people dig a hole/
And they never hesitate to throw you in if you fold/
If you wanna be a winner gotta do it with your soul/
That’s your girl, oh my bad, yea she on her way home/
It take some hustle gotta grind in these streets/
Im bout that bag you aint talking money we don’t even speak/
Better keep that grass cut cause its snakes in the vegetation/
To make deposits at the bank I need a reservation/
Staying solid is the key to the dough/
gotta plant the seeds till the money trees grow/
Then we pluck from the branches, foreigns at the mansion/
It tend to make the freaky girls legs start expanding/
Ricky bobby you aint first then you last/
Winners do what they want when they got enough cash/
Cant even spend it all when its coming too fast/
Just gone give me my trophy to add to the stash/
HOOK 1.09
Life on the line i walked alotta miles/
Wanna be a winner gotta go through the trials/
Its hella hard days it aint all full of smiles/
Im sitting at the top im gone enjoy it a while/
VERSE 2 1.20-2.04
Be a king to a beggar and a ocean to the dessert/
Gotta have thick skin just to make it through the weather/
Them people talk hard but they softer than a feather/
If you good where you at aint no way you getting better/
Once you win its addictive then you win again/
From the anus im the shhh like im passing wind/
God blessed me I aint sneeze im too bad to sin/
Better find you some heart like the man of tin/
This a game and its played by the worst or the best/
Speak up I cant hear ya say that shit witcha chest/
Keep ya vest and a strap cause they hate no cap/
When you try to levitate they want ya head in ya lap/
We aint never giving up, keep ya mind on the goal/
Winning aint everything, the greatest lie ever told/
Gotta keep ya vision clear and ya eye on the road/
And be an example to winners all around the globe/

All odds against me
they try to fence me
five against one
wrestling they all jump in in hopes to win
had no idea
I'd overthrow
each one over the ropes
all hopes are dimmed
now im the goat in the ring
and with the pen
got one in a chokehold
the other I'm stomping limbs
lumps and bruises
swift maneuvers
duck and dogding attempts
gurantee when they done
with me they'll never wrestle again
grand finale climbing up
flying down all pinned
then cheers from the audience
