Pandemic hit the ends like its aids again
Say goodbye to your loved ones better make amends
Way these white folks talking
They gonna make us slaves again
Yeah they gonna make us slaves again
Helicopters in the sky, following marches
Either they call us assailants or they calling us targets
Pray my sins away today incase tomorrow is promised
Walking road talking code
But I'm living Islamic
Threats on my life
Through text messages twice
Stressing my wife
I wonder how much my head collecting a price
If prayer is the weapon of choice of the believer
Then what's God saying when I'm loading these millimetres
Imagine rapping with truth stuck in my jaw
Nigga walk tall until you ducking the law
I wasn't even old enough to be cuffed in a car
But here we are
Now it's bars I could be giving you scars
3 round burst gotta 3 peat the rifle
Teach the yutes a better way
So they don't repeat the cycle
America taught us violence so we be just like you
your religion capitalism we streets disciples
You ever see a body jolt once a shell hit it
And you know that nigga dead because he smell different
But the crime rate down
We don't believe the lies you tell niggas
Even if it's true interrogation lights melt niggas
Feeling like Nip without the gang affiliation
It's a strange initiation
Fight for change is living dangerous
I used to make a name
Snatching chains and taking bracelets
Escorted through the front
But aint a stranger to the basement nigga
I'm on the block because I have a voice
Violent by nature, I aint have a choice
Pop the pistol southpaw, never miss an opp
They aint testifying I aint sitting in a prison box
But they got our skin weaponized
Every breath is ammunition in their eyes
Its terrorism with a green card
You know its over if I see y'all
Knocking at my door, MAGA hat the oppressor
Talking to detectives Quran on my dresser
Rolling up ICE speaking spanish to test us
Immigration department of corrections collect us
Misquoted in interviews where I'm giving truth
In the open ravishing women Ricky Rude
I can never cry when an officer die
Blow my nose on your flag and toss it aside
Glock by my side cock it and rise
Parabellum cross your T and dot up your eyes
You talking to I in your most garbage of rhymes
You wanna battle Bring your people to watch your demise
Here's some facts handsome and vicious
Your girl pree the gram, romancing my pictures
Cancerous scriptures, rancid delicious
Try to bite what I write
My hands is your dinner
Crippled the last nigga they sent to harm me
At 17 I beat an attempted hommy
You won a prize, free trip to the coroner
Revolutionary but gorgeous
Be on the lookout revolutionary but gorgeous
Hobbes and Said revolutionary but gorgeous

I never sold no dope but I robbed niggas that did
Yo I don't even rap just recall the vividest shit
Nigga you'd be violent too seeing bullets riddle you crib
Explaining to your moms that's just the shit that you live
I lost more friends than I care to recount
Police beat a nigga in school and carried him out
My first interactions with authority figures
Were purely horrific had me cuffed before
Puberty bore me a visit I surely exhibit
Every sign of a delinquent
But with this rhyming I'm distinguished
God designed me as a linguist
Forming diamonds out of ingots
Never blinded by the trinkets
I was plotting on this barber
Couldn't wait to take his chain
Nigga I aint knocking you out
You'll be awake to feel this pain
You Taking me in vain
That 3rd times a charm
I'm like Beetlejuice
I can't wait til you say my name
Nigga
Run the jewels bitch
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Sugar Foot Said niggas know me
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Sugar Foot Said niggas know me
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Sugar Foot Said niggas know me
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Box a nigga head off rest in peace to Sweat Pea
There's a balance to life
Still don't play the middle
Choose a side wise not a game it's a riddle though
Might get caught in the Nets Kerry Kittles
But remember ever bone must be buried
Cause we brittle though
As long as you flow could be a little bo
But principles and codes let me know I had a little hope
Now I sit by the fire place reflecting on the that little coat
I wore on the corner with a bit of coke
Helped me cope through the winters when I paid the bills
Collectors dont care about a cent I had to pay it still
Every win was victory for basic thrills
Bought my first whip before I could vote
Or take a pill
With prescribed consent from my mother though
Motha fuckas was ducking shots straight from the muzzle
Was in trouble if you fucked with me
Nothin subtle I'm above you never bluffin
Never stutter with the shuffle like I'm Ali
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Sugar Foot Said niggas know me
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Sugar Foot Said niggas know me
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Sugar Foot Said niggas know me
Ali shuffle in these V3s
Box a nigga head off rest in peace to Sweat Pea
Only time I wanna be like Tupac was to shoot cops
Produce Glocks like a magician
On some John wick shit
Yo we picking up the beef raising the stakes
Think Canada is sweet must of made a mistake
Nigga Toronto eat food plus I was raised in the states
Banana clip blood baths yo they bathing an ape
I love to network introduce a razor to face
Carving out shapes thats a box cutter you taste
Shawn Michaels with the super kicks
In cyphers I'm a lunatic
Rifles just blew a kiss sight you with my crucifix
Yeezy V3 like alien feet
I take the life of anybody that compare you to me
Yo my knuckle game legendary
Before fights I used to train in the cemetery
Beatyourass dot com my fist is the home page
You ever see a large calibre at close range

I have a temper
That I have to temper
I came out in a sad September
Adapt to tension
Cause I react to pressure
Trying to do it for my future
So the past remember
I'm bout action
This ain't a protest
Keep my pistol with before I give it to coat check
Kill one of those cops that left Garner with no breath
Niggas know a lot of shit
But they don't know death
Heat up the concrete with these cold 1s
Can't vote Democrat cause I sold guns
Coke in the air won't make my nose numb
Survivors remorse
I know what I grow from
I know the suburbs and I know the jungle
Through it all Allah showed me struggle
They might show you love but trust me no one loves you
That's why you gotta keep a distance when they go to hug you
Closer I get to success
The more hopeless I feel
When I get to being whole
The more broken I feel
I got friends that I aint spoke to in years
Say the seen me on the telly
I just hope that they cheered
Yeah yeah
Closer I get to success
The more hopeless I feel
When I get to being whole
The more broken I feel
I got friends that I aint spoke to in years
Say the seen me on the telly
I just hope that they cheered
Yeah yeah
Growing up with Bill Bellamy
Lessons on infidelity
Pessimist to the melody
That love birds sing
I want both things
Loyalty and lust
Without the questioning trust
That's enough to make my heart beat bust
No one ever helped me with basics
Of healthy relations
Just left me with tapings
That tempted me crazy
What's the science on it
I been crying on it
Settle down
Nah my mom told me take more time
Yeah Umi told me take 4 wives
No woman would be worth my time
No woman no cry
But our sisters got strength we couldn't dream to possess
Ugh so why we only see em for sex
You know society be leaving em stressed
Like rape can be avoided if we teach em to dress
Men ain't talking to brothers
Brothas ain't talking to men
What you gonna say when your daughter
Can't trust her friend
Closer I get to success
The more hopeless I feel
When I get to being whole
The more broken I feel
I got friends that I aint spoke to in years
Say the seen me on the telly
I just hope that they cheered
Yeah yeah
Closer I get to success
The more hopeless I feel
When I get to being whole
The more broken I feel
I got friends that I aint spoke to in years
Say the seen me on the telly
I just hope that they cheered
Yeah yeah

For the Thugs

|

For the thugs that walk gunshots off with a limp
And blow the powder off the hand like they getting off lint
When it hits
I pray every shot is a near miss
Or I record before I die so you get to hear this
And if I lose a leg I want a gun holding me up
So I can have a double barrel while I'm holding you up
If voting's enough why it won't change sooner
George Bush to Donald Trump Jr
They know what they doing keep family in power
Money loves vanity
Living in the hands of the cowards
The sky aint the limit
It's just the beginning
Why you think they trying to colonise the moon
And Tax you for visits my nigga stay with it
America built wealth off incest and nepotism
Separation of Church and state like an exorcism
Wretched rhythms got em stepping into they death
Yo our exodus Is gonna put the whole planet in debt
The try to imitate our flesh and limit our success
You can't match us in life can't pass us in death
I look like sex muscles developed for conflict
I could grace a magazine cover
Or campaign for office
God made the strongest pain is my author
Only faded by barbers
Play me in a stadium
Hot as a uranium cartridge
Hannibal of Carthage
Every woman's dream and every haters target
For the thugs who hide bills in the Nike shoe boxes
Selling poison to their people its only a few options
Don't ever think a different way of life is beyond you
A prison sentence no matter how long
Gonna haunt you
Get a weapon incase them paigons intend to wrong you
Disinfecting the place them niggas think they belong to
Racist Judge and Black youth get paired often
Give us our age in a cell with a clear conscious
Capitalism cool til its time for fair options
Used to be a felony now marijunana sharecropping
Tears dropping for human warehousing
Family allowed the visit
But they disappear often
13th amendment is confederate vengeance
Native born immigrants, servitude indentured
You get life in detention
They getting a pension
Bankrupt schools won't ever pay attention
Jesus was born in September so was I
They crucified thugs so you know we coincide
Why you think you cross your heart and hope to die
God love us hood niggas why we so despised
For the thugs that found Islam
Let the sunnah guide you
Always give Salaams don't let it divide you
Sulafi or Wahabi Sunni or Shi'a
If you God body or on the corner slinging bean pies
If you give me the greeting I'ma give it back
And pray a bullet that I sent is never coming back

Young smart nigga shit
Child of some immigrants
Barely dodge prison
Showing niggas what the business is
If you want it jump
Prize fighter penmanship
Culture Black Gold sand coloured skin I'm in
Legend in my city cause I did it for kids and them
If I show my face west of Texas it's for dividends
Gotta pay the speaker fee just to hear me vent
Super villain on the streets feds wanna take a pic
Born knowledge equality on the math so we stay legit
5 Pillars plus a pistol for my incidents
10 Toes down pop a 5th in the air
Down for whatever as long as I'm not missing my prayers
We throw up gang signs for the listen impaired
Wire tap the iPhone so they listen in pairs
Scrolling through my texts just a list of affairs
Survival of the fittest nigga, I know this shit isn't fair
We sing a song
And special for you
So special, so special, so special
We tell a story
Of what god will do for you
Making Wudu with the Fiji water
Fendi prayer rug from Neiman Marcus
Sneaker shopping for the sleekest options
Annuit coeptis inside of my denim pockets
Wack niggas never overstand their logic
I rhyme Islamic with the power cosmic
Only time I face defeat is staring at my sneaker closet
Make Salah request some peace to prophets
Grab the piece have a feast in my beef and broccolis
Millimetres popping hustlers trying to see a decent profit
9 To 5ing seem preposterous
99 Around my neck Astaghfru'Allah lets keep it rocking
I got 17 shots doper than Medellin pots
Every queen hot
And I'm looking for Nefertiti ah
My pedigree top
Giving the best to divas ah
Let her eat cock
Bring a friend I'll keep it rock
If her man come
Get backed down with the chrome
The Gorgeous Revolutionary the background of her phone
We sing a song
And special for you
So special, so special, so special
We tell a story
Of what god will do for you

Get on my soapbox I give a sermon to the block
My play cousin shh had it burning in the pot
I was protection when he was nervous of the opps
I mean I'm like a 5'8 version of The Rock
He wore air max 95s infrareds
Never carried guns he was only into gettin bread
I had a pistol with a beam and some lead
Jordan 8 lows I was 17 splitting heads
Facts
I praise Allah the fullest
Put a gun to my head squeeze
I'll still dodge the bullet
Getting paid for all the shit my wrist was writing
My fists is frightening
Knuckles smell like boogers and gingivitis
Dumping shells a couple fell
Central booking we got indicted
Stuck in jail fucking hell
Nigga I didn't like it
The difference is you sniffing and I'm saying lines
If God made me in his image
What I make in mine
Beat attempted murder back in 04
Jumping borders
Like a nigga on a world tour (Facts)
Did the work
Made the road sore
Niggas know my rep
But they don't know yours
Beat attempted murder back in 04
Jumping borders
Like a nigga on a world tour (Facts)
Did the work
Made the road sore
Niggas know my rep
But they don't know yours
Lord God I ask forgiveness
For all these wratchets spitting
Target acquisition
Made all these bastard children
I know what's gon come to light
So in the dark I practice hitting
Reflexes sharpened
For the hardest bad positions
Until the lion learn to write
You know how the story goes
We walked the glory roads
You were in glory holes
Ugh
Tour de force in my Jordan 4s
I'ma foreign force with a gorgeous broad
I went from poor as poor
Smorgasbords from the corner store
To fish with swords from imported shores
Rap conscious but I'm certified
You ain't earn respect but you deserve to die
Might not hurt your bank but I'ma hurt your pride
Dick heads think they hard until they circumcised
Smelling like Gunpowder and Burberry
Mal intent sent paigons to the infirmary
Beat attempted murder back in 04
Jumping borders
Like a nigga on a world tour (Facts)
Did the work
Made the road sore
Niggas know my rep
But they don't know yours
Beat attempted murder back in 04
Jumping borders
Like a nigga on a world tour (Facts)
Did the work
Made the road sore
Niggas know my rep
But they don't know yours
Beat attempted murder back in 04

Jesus gave sight to the blind
This an impossible view
You can't walk in my shoes
Call this therapy
Victim of poverty
Prosperity gospel
Niggas be sticking to robbery
Cost of living colossal
Yo these christians they bother me
Talking about the father
They be giving me problems
Cause I call em on they gossip
I service my community
Got these jakes chasing me
Check your contacts
That's how conversations be
Got the late text
Excited fatherhood facing me
Complicated pregnancy
My baby lost the baby
Joke about taking lives
Til the almighty taking mine
Now I gotta wait in line
Don't look at me my face is fine
Saying lines same time
Questioning faith I find
Is this my fault from crimes
When I was spraying 9s
Forgiveness worth it
If I stay the bitter person
Missing my mom
And all of this shit emerging
Clinching my palms
Give salaams
To the jinn and serpents
Self sabotage
I'm going against my purpose
Full speed into a wall
Going against inertia
Tough to finish these rhymes
My fucking heart is hurting
I been fighting all my life
I just wanna exist
These handcuffs hurt officer
I'm gonna resist
I ain't begging you to keep your knee
From under my ribs
If it's you or me
You ain't going home to none of your kids
I'd rather be a martyr
Than face a bunch of charges
I'll lead a revolution
Fuck your racist son and daughter
14 Nights of nightmares
I ain't sleeping a wink
I bit my tongue in dream
Spitting blood in the sink
Seen my girl die giving birth to my child
She alive when I wake
It still hurt me to smile
I'm thankful for my past
Cause It show me what my purpose is
2020 Put a nigga back up on some murder shit
Performing ain't practical
Covid forming is tactical
Crackas call me radical
While they storming the capital
They got the right idea
You know my fight right here
You my oppressor when I want freedom
The same man that killed Nipsey
Want us to free him
I'll be honest I quit counting the bars
Cause as long as when you hear it
It gon sound like it's raw
Give it a round of applause
Broke hope floats
And you can keep your head up
Or you can drown in the sauce
Ugh my last album my first album in a decade
It raised my salary
Without a single record played
Here on my own accord
I put my life on the line
I need a bonus score
Solid as a stone in sword
Ugh I got receipts can you show me yours?
Nah I don't smoke give my opponents more
Hold up
I got these racists in a telescope
The neighbours think I'm selling dope
They don't know if a nigga famous or living well and broke
I guess I made it to these jealous folks
I guess I made it to these jealous folks

Yeah, yo
Ayo I pray you see success in spite of your short comings
And that you get acquitted arriving for court summons
I hope your kids always have some food in their stomachs
And if I sent you a bullet know that you had it coming
My path was nothing like yours
Growing up dignity I had to fight for
Growing up them kids was teasing we was type poor
A suicide attempt Mom up in the psych-ward
Still looking forward never question the past
Things I seen wish I had my retina detached
Back stabbers got their names etched in my back
It ain't all pain them niggas schooled me to the game
And I thank them for that
You can have the last word I'ma have the last punch
Let the sound of my name burn a hole through your tongue
I don't have the patience to argue with a pagan
If you die from hating
I hope your grave spacious
And through it all
Through it all
Through it all
Yeah nigga I'm still here
I'm still here
And through it all
Through it all
Through it all
Yeah nigga I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm 10 toes down
We holding automatics
In the coldest fabrics
Bullet holes in cabbage so dramatic
Barrel smoking aromatic
Before you get knowledge of self
Got to know the savage
Still doing savage shit
Busting in heaux and splashing
We all trying to eat even though I'm fasting
Before action happen
We planning for post traumatic
Seeing signs but coasting past it
Redesign the flows I'm crafting
To speak a line where evil reside
Kind of close to madness
I need atonement
Speeding through these fleeting moments
I just be turning up my speakers zoning
Seeing omens
Keep food in my trunk trying to feed the homeless
You see rappers I only see opponents
Targets I aim caught in the rain
Catch the whole cartridge I flame
You call me Saïd but that's just a part of my name
7 shootings in one night
3 down the block
Who you call when police officers squeeze off the shots
That winter wind make evidence
Freeze in the spots
They can track you down
Even if you leave from your spot
Your lawyer ain't confident
You can see it in the box
When the prosecutor
Say you and me need to talk
So I pray you see success in spite of your short comings
And that you get acquitted arriving for court summons
I hope your kids always have some food in their stomachs
And if I sent you a bullet just know that you had it coming
And through it all
Through it all
Through it all
Yeah nigga I'm still here
I'm still here
And through it all
Through it all
Through it all
Yeah nigga I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm 10 toes down

Inshallah

You know everything is inshallah
Everything is gods will
Even if you dont even agree with it
Cause there's gonna be things
Where you look back at
That you prayed for that you got now
You get me?
Yeah
I tap into my deepest pain
To keep me sane
The reaper hangs
Like freezing rain
I'm seeing things
Biting my fingers
Like they teething rings
One verse equal to a ki of cain
God is great speak his name
Beefing with heathens
Aint no reason I'ma be arraigned
Millimeters bang
Leaking brains auf wiedersehen
All the wounds that we sustained
Made us uniquely brave
Every level the rules change
Can you complete the game
Racist policies detain
And bodies being drained
My girl seeing me through this
Last thing that bothers me is paying
I need to stop delaying
She gotta see a ring
Because I owe her my life
Honesty and name
Inshallah
God forgive me
Lost my mommy in 19
And a baby in 2020
Question the plan
Like what does he want from me
Growing sick of quoting scriptures
Going against my own religion
Showing symptoms
No conviction
Show me wisdom
I know I'm slipping
First time in my life
I'm scared of fasting
Gotta confront my terrible actions
Air mattress to Paris fashion
Retail therapy cover madness
Can't imagine
All the things I use to be distracted
I'm supposed to be growing
But emotionally broken
So I'm caught in systems
Of narcissism
Missing altruism
My conscience caught in prison
Of my faults and schisms
Couldn't believe my eyes
When I walk in the room oh
I felt the calmest of wounds ugh
Allah could you
I mean damn
Why you put my momma on tubes
The very next year you killed my daughter in a womb
Still I prayed Salah
Though I I couldn't talk and I couldn't walk
The time I just watched it move
They protesting with no change ugh
Shoot rubber bullets with no aim nah
You don't know pain
My dad don't know blame
He asked me why I don't call
I don't know Greg
Fuck I don't know Greg
Inshallah
You know the first thing I wanted to do when I found out I was gonna be a father
Was talk to my mom
And I hadn't spoke to my mom for almost two years before she died
And so like that let me know how damaged I was and how much you know I needed to heal
And it wasn't until I lost my baby did I realise how much I wanted to be a dad
Like I knew I was excited but it wasn't until I lost the opportunity
Did it really hit me
And I remember when I phoned my father and I was telling him like what was happening
This nigga was like I'm glad I'm not in your shoes
So when I say I don't know why I don't phone him
Because I already know everything he's gonna say before hand
So I don't even bother with the phone conversation you get me
But everything is Inshallah man
I'm just trying to move trying to heal
And I dont I don't pretend to overstand all the plans but sometimes man it can't be that
