The Assignment

(album: Ignorance Is Bliss - 2023)

I know it's all about the timing
I'm about to blow atomic
I can see you sleeping looking weak these niggas catatonic
I know it's all a game I got it
I'm about to go around them
I can see that look off in your eye boy you ain't really bout it
I know the assignment all of the shit [?] it's the assignment
You ain't got to wait your turn to take your shot it's the assignment
Better find you a way inside the door before they lock it
Get this shit while you can that's the assignment

Feeling that pressure
Gotta go and get this shit by any means that's not a question
Educated with the moves I make you know I'm never guessing
Tell them niggas I've been calculated like a math professor
Ready for the test whenever, forever I'm better best believe it
You can never find nobody like me, no they not competing
All of these new niggas preservative they so deceiving
Got to ask yourself nah
Do you need it?
Do you want it?
Do you love it?
Do you like it?
Would you buy it?
Is it just a phase?
Is there any staying power to last for a million days?
Tell me will it stand the test of time or will it fade away?
Is it strong will it break?
Is it real is it fake?
Original or just the same?

I know it's all about the timing
I'm about to blow, atomic
I can see you sleeping looking weak these niggas catatonic
I know it's all a game I got it
I'm about to go around them
I can see that look off in your eye boy you ain't really bout it
I know the assignment all of the shit [?] the assignment
You ain't got to wait your turn to take your shot it's the assignment
Better find you a way inside the door before they lock it
Get this shit while you can that's the assignment

You must be off a pill
You lacking attention to detail
You niggas lacking skill
I'm feeling like Erick
I'm feeling like Parrish
You niggas got to chill
You start it from the ground then you build
How the fuck you skipping steps
And then surprised when you fail?
What the hell?
These niggas treat rap like wishing wells
Lotto scratches crapping out 'cause
They don't feel what you spill, shit is ill
It's immune deficiencies in yo sentences
Careers can end at any moment
Without a parentheses, relentlessly
This shit sound like death to a gimmick
You're fucking with a cynic with these words I'm a chemist
I'm a menace who in the fuck told you I was finished?
You bit off more than you can chew I'll send you to the dentist

I know it's all about the timing
I'm about to blow atomic
I can see you sleeping looking weak these niggas catatonic
I know it's all a game I got it
I'm about to go around them
I can see that look off in your eye boy you ain't really bout it
I know the assignment all of the shit [?] it's the assignment
You ain't got to wait your turn to take your shot it's the assignment
Better find you a way inside the door before they lock it
Get this shit while you can that's the assignment
