For starters, I contemplated on where to split you |
|
Marked a spot with a dotted line, then ripped you |
|
Used careful procedure, if you listen closely |
|
you can hear the ghostly moans of phobes bleeding through the speakers |
|
The voices of various toys who ate the poison |
|
Fucking up the solo juts and the ones that snuck their boys in |
|
Like a free-for-all buffet when my team cultivates a crowd of loose heads |
|
and boosted heads get called and all of them fall this way |
|
Used to be on a mission to destroying emcees' existence |
|
Now I'm tryna build so we can make this shit efficient |
|
Strength is in the mind and strength is in the numbers |
|
Too much sleep, then you slumber so we linked the bees and stung you |
|
I brung you three times as much as your fucking idols brought to you |
|
But since you know me locally, you dismissed me as an obstacle |
|
Fuck it, Rhymesayers already got the twin cities locked |
|
Support's overwhelming, ain't no need for you to give me props |
|
[Hook X2] |
|
It's time to reach out, grab the nation and the earth |
|
Let's see where your hearts at, let's put the outernet to work |
|
[Chorus X2] |
|
I spent my whole life working to get to the point that I'm at |
|
So now I spend my time tryna reach my destination |
|
I'll be at the end waiting with my crew for the rest of you |
|
to arrive to shed the destitute mind state supplied by life |
|

|
He said what? He's telling all of his boys that I can't rhyme |
|
Then I guess the shit's a success if I'm even on his mind |
|
He's doing what? Recording a project? Good, he should be |
|
I'm not impressed, it's obvious y'all never understood me |
|
I dwell in a land of ten thousand Hip Hop fans |
|
And every fan thinks he's an emcee, heads are heavy but they're empty |
|
I dwell in a land of twenty thousand emcees |
|
But only half of them are head influenced, tense confusion stems |
|
Damn, no need to worry about what the next man's doing |
|
That's what keeps you from perceiving what I'm pursuing |
|
Here's a clue and kill your demo, I'm tryna make history |
|
on a bus full of empty seats, now who wants to sit with me? |
|
In case you're unaware, we've been doing this forever |
|
and ain't damn thing changed, financial status nor the weather |
|
However, lack of cash reinforces passion |
|
Fuck the rapping, man if I was wack, I'd promote "The Happenings" |
|
[Hook X2] |
|
The difference between the average head and an emcee is effort |
|
Pick a side, either side, let's begin the network |
|
[Chorus X2] |
|
I spent my whole life working to get to the point that I'm at |
|
So now I spend my time tryna reach my destination |
|
I'll be at the end waiting with my crew for the rest of you |
|
to arrive to shed the destitute mind state supplied by life |

|
As an emcee, I run rhymes to distribute the fun times |
|
As a lyricist, I promise to heat up your brain like sunshine |
|
As an emcee, my goal is to make the whole show dope |
|
As a lyricist, I wanna spit that shit that you can quote |
|
As an emcee, I provoke my producer to stroke your spirit |
|
So as a lyricist, I can't be choking on my lyrics |
|
As an emcee, I know the key is originality |
|
And as a lyricist, I command other emcees to respect me |
|
That's it, respect, that's all, in fact the same respect |
|
that I offer to you and your crew after y'all rip the set |
|
I'm just a man, but I roll with others and we've got this plan |
|
to let the voice expand across the tortured land |
|
Education starts at home, six-one-two |
|
From there we roam through headphones coming soon to your war zone |
|
The aftermath, I'll have to plant some gems into your passive ass |
|
Amped to cut trees and branches so ya'll would have a path |
|
The more you feed it, the more it needs to consume |
|
If you're coming through the region, hit me up, we'll rock a room |
|
Let's network, let's work, let's all get work |
|
So we can build the overall network |
|
[Chorus X2] |
|
I spent my whole life working to get to the point that I'm at |
|
So now I spend my time tryna reach my destination |
|
I'll be at the end waiting with my crew for the rest of you |
|
to arrive to shed the destitute mind state supplied by life |
|
[Outro X4] |
|
Let's network, let's work, let's all get work |
|
So we can build the overall network |
