about

This is the first joint that I've ever recorded. Good Food is coming soon...

lyrics

I would tell the truth but you would just hear hating/I would lie but then I know the devil would be waiting/so I guess I rest between lies and the truth/visualized through a glass of gin and vermouth/attention span lacking, so close to aloof/some say they’re down but John Wilkes in the Booth/realness tested, life will have your manhood sequestered/rap is more than just your conveyance or your vestments/all I want is greatness you can keep the “less than"/honestly I feel like I’m too late/Hip-Hop’s heart stopped, but my rhymes can defibrillate/I fear I can't escape the fate /like a camp counselor stuck in Crystal Lake/before I die, I hope I acquire the American Pie/ while most still lust for the cake/we the people that wear the masks/me included, even for myself I have questions I fear to ask/but I enjoy every moment, like thank God I’m free at last, free at last /HipHop’s flag is at half mast/raising it, hopefully, this verse brings some to task/
I’m the new target for the sniper behind PE’s scope/a brand new blog post is the ransom note/the playlist leads to Stockholm syndrome/the same thing back and forth like a palindrome/not in control, the mindset is offset by an outside force/we tried to stay the path but of course got lost/they fear the planet might turn black/ sometimes I feel like I got a nation holding me back/my rhymes are the map/the notebook is an atlas for navigators to track/the lone wolf that left the pack/my crew shines and we connect like a constellation of stars/call me Cos, but I prefer the nom de plume the Wizard of Bars//the destination is success and it’s closer than far/if we ever fell off we’d have a mean return like Jedi’s and Jafar/steady building like carpenters and Masons/this compilation is the culmination of constant contemplation/the giants have awakened like sleeper cell of Titans/infectious beats and rhymes turns the whole crowd into hypemen/this is just the beginning, the thunder before the lightening
