about

you can...
never forget...
where you came from.
it's embedded in DNA.
how you write...
how you talk...

and if someone forgets...
then you start TWITCH'N.

lyrics

(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.
