[Verse 1]
Ill writes, rock mics to the cosmos
I'm in flight like Excite Bikes flippin' on Nintendo's
You sleep with a nightlight, froze afraid for your life
Just wait and I'll strike three times with lightning language
I touch the pages, nothing short of amazing
Of course I'm grazing in the pasture, how else would I gather nourishment?
I'm flattered you haven't mastered the basics
City to city flourishing on stages for all ages
Names change with the faces, it's outrageous
The claims of grandeur should beat you with a lightning rod
So a tripod can't stand you; it's okay to nod
Nobody's-body's but God
You're shocked that I rap relentless and you rap Christmas gifts
In the midst of cats these raps mean Jesus set 'em free
From the traps, I'll melt the glacier you can take the tap
Than I'll splash you with some pure, unadulterated brilliance
Spilling over water supply, quenching the thirst of millions
[Hook] (x2)
There was a time when rhymin'
Took a little more time and
Rappers put the time in
Shinin' secondary
Climbin' corporate ladder necessary
For followers, not authors of their destinies
Like us
[Verse 2]
Ill writes, rock mics to the cosmos
You types'a parasites that I like to host
I'll get dough to toast and see's I born to boast
You'll get played out, I'll stay way out like Space Ghost
I'm like a thermostat in a world of thermometers
Cause you can just tell that there's heat, but I can make it hotter
Grip you by your collar, make you quote my business hours
Dangling from twelve-story balcony for doubting me
You're 'bout to see it's not a threat, it's a promise
I bet you forget there's no fronting when fucking with the showstoppers
We're crowd-rocking, you're watching like "it's only two of them
I'm used to cats going off CD with ten hypemen"
There's no need for that, give us two 12's and a microphone
Cause birds fly in flocks, but eagles fly alone
I've grown to know where I want to go and take patience
That's why I never get lost, I only change my destination
[Hook] (x2)
