Every time I dropped it was worth the wait
Just had to sprinkle the garnish on the serving plate
We up now and “The Birth” was just the first of 8
Turn fans to fam make the words relate
Rep solidified, checks intensified
This goat yoga, you gotta stretch to criticize
Die a hero or live to become vilified
And never heal until you swallow that pill of pride
Feel the vibe, y’all rap but don’t be saying shit
Dreadlock Rasta about to show you who you playing with
Check the yellow wire, y’all talk but ain’t displaying it
Can’t reason with heathens, gotta go to the grave wit it
I got life now what I do with that amazing gift
Took it out the box, showing y’all what you could make of it
Building with the blocks, grip your goals and never let go
Faith it until you make it, Pray until you feel the echo
Racks on racks, counting stacks by my lonely
Icey for the wifey and a flat for my OG
Gramophone trophy, couple plaques for the homies
I just wanna go out as the greatest
Goat emoji
I’m a living legend living testament
That when you put the horse before the cart you get a return on your investment
This ain’t the main event we just been serving the refreshments
Niggas lit just to see their name reserved upon a guest list
How precious, can’t change your mind, hope I change your perspective
When you don’t let them get their way they gone say you aggressive
You tell them what they gotta pay they gonna say that you flexing
But we know God don’t make mistakes all that shade is a blessing
Them lemons turned to lemonade because my nigga we pressed them
Humble beginnings set the stage but the play was predestined
Know your role nigga, y’all breaking code
You get trap a dime a dozen, come to Chizzle for the soul nigga
Cold shivers down the spine when I spit a line
Double up the books on them even when we bid a blind
No look dishes boy and Stephen ain’t a bit of blind
That’s just how it is, can you dig? I’m just getting mine
Racks on racks, counting stacks by my lonely
Icey for the wifey and a flat for my OG
Gramophone trophy, couple plaques for the homies
I just wanna go out as the greatest

Floating on my back in the Caribbean Sea
Seeing visions of the life that I’m intended to lead
While lamenting on the hero I pretended to be
I saw God in the flawed, the subtle in the extreme
These raps was never formatted to fit in they screens
So i ain’t mad it’s too deep, I ain’t swimming in streams
I pen divine rights for the descendants of kings
In a dialect that colonizers couldn’t perceive
These is top tier lyrics, got you crying when you hear it
Don’t fight it let it flush you out like hydrants to your spirit
You take a leap of faith, sky diving through the cirrus
Even though you afraid of heights, when you land you’ll be fearless
These ain’t experiments I’m speaking from experience
No cap, all Equifax and Experian
I know our story tough, but keep on watching until the very end
You gonna see the plot twist, let’s just say we got this
Purified our tribe and started draining out the toxic
And blocking the assassin’s bullet claiming all our prophets
Rorschach raps, they see the savior in the splotches
But I’m more than just a rapper, I demolish all your boxes
A cross between Pac and four jockeys of the apocalypse
The son of a pauper bringing gospel to the populous
You ever seen a man up close and need binoculars
Untouchable, my angels treat me like the mafia
Thought that I’d be gothic with the death I’ve seen
Life come with wins and losses, hold your head high king
Made my debut to the world when I was just 19
Now I’m free, I hope you know what the f I mean
Honor God with the way that I respect my queen
Put the mission over riches and He blessed my dreams
Until my ashes in the soil I’m gonna rep my team
Every step that I take every breath I breathe
