Lyrics
(Bullets may fly 'round but I'll lay down)
(I feel safe and sound on solid ground)
Huh
I was born
17 November baby, '04
Born into poverty, novelty
Life was a joke, nothin' more than a chore
So take a look inside
The mind of a genius, serious, sinister and scary
My open mind like a lock, only God the key and he don't hand out many
Now I see how Xavier subservient, he works in mysterious ways
For days, I sat defeated in loss and drug treatment
Fuck the cup, I got a bottle, done and beaten
The object was to process the meanin'
I find love and hate within me
This an inside battle, I gotta win me
Safe myself and not go off the deep end
But fuck that.
Baby, I'ma play the defence
I went through the trials and tribulations
Y'all be tasteless
Different faces give me inspiration
Speakin' to the nation with purpose
Dying of thirst, I'll be the first to say
I paid my dues in every way
Make this music, dead emotions
See you posers
So any motherfucker that wanna throw a shot at me? Catastrophe
I use strategy
My day ones'll remember the times back on Audacity
No I can't ask for more
So how you like me now?
Too much time on my hands, I perfected the craft
You know I'll be doin' this shit till I'm 88
Like a blast from the past (haha)
Love never did enough for me
I was always in the wrong company
Made my choices with my vices, only love I needed
I pour a fifth of vodka with a blunt if I aint sleeping
If you told me to slow my roll
I'd tell you "You should go and beat it"
So I went and changed it, no it ain't painless
Path to my freedom, know I'll be the greatest
Pray to the Father that they stay nameless
And my songs on everybody playlist
I'm right where I need to be, never switch up for a fee
I'm slowly becoming the man that I see in the visions
Every night that I dream
(Now you've got two choices)
(You can cheer and believe)
(Or you can stay on the side of the bums)
(And never know what you could've achieved)
(So where's he at?)
Huh
'Cuz the tongue is mighty powerful
No we not made for each other
We not compatible
I'm slowly learning that my train of thought's combatable
But all these thoughts flying round my head is so radical
I'ma say it not spray it like all your bullets do
I'm doing shit that the peers around me? They couldn't do
Evidence in my severance
Come from emphasis on my prevalence
And my eloquence is so venomous
Like the life I'm cursed with
All your negative expectations
I'ma knock em down
I'm done with being a joke to y'all
I'm done with fucking around
What's the point of rapping if I don't believe that throne's mine?
Fuck everybody
G.O.A.T status
Greatest of all time
You right I got my habits
Lack of financial status
I'm ready to go full throttle
No ain't no automatic
My purpose to spread the word
So now I got to have it
Glory to the Lord
It's just a bonus if I'm living lavish
I realise I think I get it now
No flaw in the way I respond it's just the cards I'm dealt
Orion's belt
Let the stars align
I'll meet you in the afterlife
Reverse the manifest
And good karma and I'll tell you why
Wouldn't be much of a triumph without the heartbreak
Jake was born to make it
So fuck it, I'll make his earth quake
Who ever thought that I'd be a martyr for my music
Who ever thought that it would be a Martin that made me pursue this?
Yours truly,
Xavier.
