(Verse I)
Said it's miraculous, adjectives rolling off my lips, melodic phrases turning pages as I reminisce/in my lament I think about the realness, I know that I'm the realest, and at times it's hard to deal with the pressure of being a rap successor from the golden era, my predecessors were great, so I gotta be better/never the less it's a difficult act to follow, try not to choke, chewing off more than I can swallow/my mind boggled, but yet in still, I'm still trying be the youngest rhymer in the Hip-Hop Honors inducted/in conjunction with to anything legendary, I told my man Coyo I wouldn't be secondary, and I meant it, my debut album must be cemented, indentured lyricism on the path of all the legends/cuz I gotta be that nigga, want to be the first Poe and not the next Jigga/inspiration...
(Verse II)
I said it's me against the world not the planet but the wide web/everybody's numb, "Night of A Living Basehead", downloading fixes, Megauploads to upload and uphold daily dose of prescriptions/crack condensed in the form of a lyric, Ice-T blatantly stated that Soulja Boy killed it/I'd be ashamed if a legend ever played me, knowing how much work that I put in on the daily/school me never, a product of Tougher Than Leather, immersed and enveloped in this game/it's coursing through my veins, through my arteries, this artistries apart of me, been wanting to leave but this shit keep calling me/spirit and conviction, I hit never miss and I play against myself due to lack of competition/this is me, no gimmicks or facades, gotta be the next Poe, not the next Nas/inspiration...
(Verse III)
And to the children growing up without fathers, or positive male figures, I figured my lyrics, if you ever hear it, could clarify distortion and the noise, could help fill your hearts and your voids, so just listen to my voice/even Harvey Dent flipped a coin so that means you always got a choice/you always got a voice, whether it's subjective or objective or suppressive, I'mma hear it and express it/my literature is scripture, a doctrine, it assists you like John Stockton, if ever there's a problem/I know we got problems that still need fixing, mentally enslaved, a product of Willie Lynch'n/ growing up ashamed in substandard conditions, lock and detained, held for wrongful convictions/that's why I put on for my city, gotta be the first Poe, not the next Biggie/inspiration...
