[Verse 1]
It was only a matter of time before I smacked em with the rhyme
Plus I come a long way from tryna clap em with the nine
We was young and we was dumb little bastards tryna shine
O.G. war stories we were captured by the crimes
It was nothing haphazard every action was refined
To watch out for these snakes cos these ladders we must climb
Used to hunger for a plate that was back in ninety-nine
Now its golden gates and silver platters when I dine
It's a lot of cats spitting they can’t match up to my lines
They see that I think different they can’t catch up with my drive
Never be PC, I’m politically incorrect with my mine
Like I was Castro in his prime
A legend in the making I don’t swagger I recline
N***as study the foundations of my patterns and designs
I see that you’re awakened I bring rapture to the blind
(Sample: What more can I say?)
I said I see that you’re awakened this is mastery defined
Miles away from enslavement make your faculty resign
Everybody looking out for self, vanity and pride
Somebody please help with all these daggers in my spine

[Chorus x 2]
They say real recognise real
Ill recognise ill
All my life I exercised skill
[Verse 2]
What’s the use of having skill if you never exercise it
Going through my drills late night memorising
Standing next to Midas all my jewels is mesmerising
Standing on this planet but I’m on the next horizon
Hanging on the edge all my stunts is death defiant
You n***as fear death that’s cos you was never righteous
I plotted my plans to put you in a heavy crisis
Bronze skin, wooly hair, yeah, let me Christ this
Sacrifice what, I already jeopardized it
In the garden with Eve like she was blessed with Isis
Either keep your eyes peeled or settle for a minus
Cos sleep is the cause I ain’t tryna catch the itis
In the depth of silence, I give thanks and praises for blessed guidance
Don’t let them bribe us
May we accept the trials like we accept the triumphs
Hold on to our destiny and never look behind us


[Chorus x 4]
They say real recognise real
Ill recognise ill
All my life I exercised skill

[Verse 3]
I already exercised I’m about to pressurize it
Cats wanna act bug, I’m about to pesticide it
Homocide on the mic, ghost let me exorcise it
Rappers wanna brag wanna boast they’re not terrifying
Say you spit the butter I got toast better recognise it
Now you wanna go against my team that’s a reckless option
If you got chips in your stash son you better hide em
I got contacts in the street no contextualising
I know people so lost, look, you will never find em
I show up your whole squad, look, for a better signing
N***as know I go hard, look, how I’m testifying
Don’t look into my rhyme book you’ll be forever blinded
By the jewels that I drop on the regular
For every bullet I spit its always one settler
They scoping out my moves tryna decode my etcetera’s
But everything is cool kid I’m ten steps ahead of ya
