1.
told myself i was better off... all because i never care about a win or loss. with a Psalm... saw everything turn to grains of salt. i watched time pass by wit' the sins of God. mission cost lives / still read a dialogue i cross points most seem to wanna' die upon. in a song - i don't wait for the hell-break... stalemate a jail case / i'm only here for a cell rate. bars defy logic... (yeah) ...knocked prophet. kept that knowledge in the pocket i got this... / feeling someone watchin'... tapin' documents of a doctrine... all to take away from a option. progress processed / you get fed nonsense all to keep you from a conscience / i got it... you only care when i'm bein' honest... and only share when you're aware i'm a monster. ...as promised. no notches on a belt mean shit. i was whipped more times than myself admits. no chain on my thoughts tho'... no love for a lane made for a lame ...tryin' to make a thot grow. that ain't pimpin' pimp'n - that's rachet. bringin' vixens to business - that's fashion. we ain't from the same cloth. i deal with demons all year... you always scream you need a day off. 'Akira', i was given powers to respond. Americans yell 'Al Simmons' if he 'Spawn'. The Devilman Crybaby / i'm sick inside Hades. never lie on purpose / so why rate me? find safety in my zone - no comfort. i could do what you do sippin' tea over crumpets. but i dine on proper English / mockin' reasons on why i burn leaves to ashed to spot a Phoenix. - you probably think i'm long gone... but the point, is to point out what my soul on... hold on...

TWITCH'N 02:16
(i'm...) i'm TWITCH'n as the sun up... gamer talk - have 'em check a sum of... every lump sum down to every damn pay stub... and i'll tax a bracket - everyone came from. f*ck what you gave us / it wasn't enough been tryin' to cut myself in, soberin' up. but the rush, got me sittin' here thinkin' 'bout luck. and from a chairman i hear 'em thinkin' 'bout Lux. like, what!?! (huh?) you ask me to cling to the edge... i'm out the window. y'all at a window with Stans. you lookin' in / lookin' like you stand you a chance and i was never made to do the song & a dance. this is no shiny suit shit... Caddy wit' the roof lit... if Caddy's gone - i shoot shit up when it suit him. i don't even care what i'm doin'... could'a been a famous rapper if i skipped the schoolin' cool it... / they keep askin' me... "yo, what's with the apathy?" well it take time for a masterpiece. i want the craft to leak & bleed all over a page i cut my ear-off in a Van Gogh state... ...see it displayed? it sit perfect on the floorboard / of course your... abuse of power is war-torn to a Warlord. no more 'raven' on the 'Poe' boy... less 'Edgar Allen' try to channel it to 'folklore'. (i'm skeme'n...) i wrote stories that opened a door... this "The Tell-Tale Heart" beatin' under a score. if you mis-educated, then you missed it for sure that Lauryn Hill - i don't need no beats no more. all double entendre / air'n out the laundry always keep a stack times tre' - call it Andre. Lyon - wiggin' out - that's Andre... watch, i'll crumble 'Empire' all for Broadway. - "dig this right here, mayne. one day this whole motherf*ckin' place gonna' be gone. this club. this city, mayne. this whole U-S of A, mayne, is just goin' turn to dust, right? and a whole new civilization is goin' rise from this one. and they goin' start diggin', ya'know? they goin' dig up the Pyramids over in Egypt. they goin' dig up the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, and the Empire State. but if a ... wanna' know about me? all he gotta' do is find your first underground tape..." - so it's back to the grind... makin' rhymes off a rap dough. past those... cook crack points where you stash O's. O-vations / for the hope of those sayin'... "lee is the best kept secret in the basement." no basics... / the sole basis... ...is to put a foot down if control hated.
3.
coke lead to the nosebleed V.I.P. - just mean you want a floor seat. when you there / see what the core need. but'chu never make the league wit' the torn knee. poor lee... / pour'n heart more than he pour lean those schemes / those frees // more fees paid dues done got dudes paid... ...and talent don't die it age. i became great wit' the wordplay... wit' the line... Mary J hangin' out loose for a sorbete. ok... / say i catch a court case... i suit-up for a court date / when we playin' E-A. we ain't... / tryin' to see the replay... two strike down pitchin' off a mound lookin' for a new day. you say... / i'm better off knockin' on a new claim... but who can't... change the weather, weatherin' the new wave... (shiiii..) "i was such a good lil' boy, right? ...with such potential - wasn't that it...?" - BLACK TOP or THE BOX! - "Jim, don't blow on these dreams..." - I'M JUST SHOOTIN' MY SHOT! - "it was a dream - not a nightmare..." - BLACK TOP or THE BOX! - "it used to be about gettin' high and playin' basketball. but now... it's just about gettin' high with you." - I'M JUST SHOOTIN' MY... one V one in a circle... no cypher hit'chu with somethin' that'll hurt'chu. ain't nothin' personal wit' the lingo... the ink-sewn into the paper make it harder on Kinko they know... / ain't no copy cat here bro... the ear lobe - never pick-up what'cha hear so here go / the hear say, you say is here tho'... ain't no pass - this the shot here bro. Kirkland at The Rucker... no spark wit' a heart put lee into what's structured. catch this - outside in the street... the window seat is the bleachers for all the others. i speak in tongues / you tryin' sneaks in a room... ....shiiiit, that's laced in too. this ain't suits, V.I.P.'d wit' the window cube... it's the court seat, more elite, playoff que (wooooo!) "i was such a good lil' boy, right? ...with such potential - wasn't that it...?" - BLACK TOP or THE BOX! - "Jim, don't blow on these dreams..." - I'M JUST SHOOTIN' MY SHOT! - "it was a dream - not a nightmare..." - BLACK TOP or THE BOX! - "it used to be about gettin' high and playin' basketball. but now... it's just about gettin' high with you." - I'M JUST SHOOTIN' MY...

9.
i'm sorry how i left us... i ain't know how much i missed you... 'til i no longer felt a hug.. touched skin, or even kissed you. i got issues... / yeah Miss - issues... and most stem off this pen that i misuse. i mean, who can i vent to... when no one here, lends an ear for what i'm into. i ain't just talkin'... i'm sharin' my truth... but how do i relate this back to the old you? 'cause i know... you got nothin' for me. and when you hear this - you'll say that it's corny. but who cares. i ain't do the shit for records. i wrote it with the hope to affect however i left it. now i accept it's not in the cards for us. and hate can't erase what the scars have done. lord knows, that's all my fault its just... i'm here - if you ever wanna' talk or somethin' 'cause... - i'm sorry how i left us... that's my word / my apology - i F'd up. and i know... i can't fix what has been done. but i'm only here to try to find where to build from.
