D.I.Y

(album: Kaizen - 2021)

Motivated by the lifestyle, not the outcome or the lust
They been driven by the results and the greed that's inside of they hearts
Feeling like the Devil's rejects, we're the outcast in the dark
I ain't talking appointment I let in my demons
Envenom, I'm sinking my fangs in their jugular
Juggle a million and one tasks
Went from start to stop, I need a bus pass
Told 'em pump the brakes, I think they might crash
White light flash, Vitiligo the same thing that Mike had
If I fall down you know that I bounce back
I been manifesting for this all year
Light years ahead of all my peers
At the tip top, it's only Gods here
Several and you know that I'm one of them
To keep up but they get it, they fumble it
Flow going stupid, go 'head bring the drummers in
Spit like I'm hungry, I rap like I'm numb again
I get cannibalistic with competition
Individualist I don't like to listen
I remember there wasn't a pot to piss in
They was blind, we couldn't see the same vision
Had to navigate though all the treachery
Backstabbers, they just want all your energy
Draining you spiritually, physically, mentally
Taking everything you got
It happens a lot but not in the circle I keep
There ain't no newcomers allowed
The truth what I found
Passing it out like the gospel
I recite it to who. follows
Filling 'em up if they hollow
Walk em' right into the deep from the shallows
Leading the sheep from the woods to the valley
Far from the predators causing the violence, yes God

I told em' I can't change, I am programmed, it's apart of my energy
I'm in love with the process, not the contents 'cause I know my identity
Yes I know it's a contest where you win less if you become the enemy
I've been going a million miles an hour, can't stop for the sake of my sanity
I make sure that I pay attention, never payed to play in my position
I had to double check it just to make sure we handling business
Who gon' do it if I don't, who gon' make it happen right now?
Who gon' do it if I don't, who gon' make it happen right now?

I like to work in silence, keep the sessions private so I know what I'm doing
I gotta focus and mold the message for the masses to create the movement
I cannot question my purpose, the path I know what I'm pursuing
Dealing with an existential crisis
Battling with demons, they were not invited
Are you not entertained, are you not enlightened?
Who gon' help me out when I'm really drowning?
Only God knows if the people round me really rooting for me or they plotting on me
Wanna live forever, holy matrimony
Tried to do me dirty, no I don't deserve it
I've been minding mines, I been steady earning
Breaking family curses, documenting murders
Got below the surface, I am am more than certain
The could close the curtains but the show goes on
Not prolonged, I moved on
I'm nuanced, paid dues up, don't lose much
I'm checking the temperature
In totality, tearing the system up
Still in the clear with the vision
I think that they sick 'cause they cannot get rid of us

I told em' I can't change, I am programmed, it's apart of my energy
I'm in love with the process, not the contents 'cause I know my identity
Yes I know it's a contest where you win less if you become the enemy
I've been going a million miles an hour, can't stop for the sake of my sanity
I make sure that I pay attention, never payed to play in my position
I had to double check it just to make sure we handling business
Who gon' do it if I don't, who gon' make it happen right now?
Who gon' do it if I don't, who gon' make it happen right now?
