[Verse 1 sintax.the.terrific] Looking in the mirror to measure my competition And its clear that I better bring my A game against him Tall, gray, and lithesome, making a kings income Fool for himself, thinking he brings wisdom Never been drinking, brags about his virtue Doesnt realize that conceits a liquor too Have you ever seen a slicker dude, knows a trick or two He thinks hes complicated when he says hes making simple moves A flirt in his smile, show you what his dimples do Knows that he can prosper putting people in a gentle mood Windblown look, but his fade is too solid Wears a cocktail of pomade cream and gel product Acts like a pacifist, talks like an activist But hasnt walked a picket line and isnt that compassionate Preaches Christ adamant, but really loves to mock Gods children as they stumble in the TV that he watch Reps hip hop, but speaks with forced street slang Like maybe you took a course in how to freestyle, mang Sometimes, I feel like Im fighting a phantom A bantam weight boxer with the heavyweight champion Dancing in my corner to tackle the enemy And just see if me is up for battling me [Hook] We dont know if you could ever come against We dont know if you could ever We dont know if you could We dont know [Verse 2 Listener] Some people ? without keys Using tongues as swords and cutting teeth on your truly Breaking phrases into words used as bullets, not bandaids Tech nines for tourniquets, hand grenades for handshakes Begging for the truth, but never waiting for the answers Too scared of radiation and too fond of growing cancers Lets fix our bayonets and take a stab at getting better And throw in our two cents without having to talk about the weather We can inject passion and not poison when were making noise And affect the world without boredom with mourning in the morning What a novel idea and honey Im still writing Stock up on forks, pull up a chair and dont stop fighting Your train of thought is late and were demanding a full refund Were staying in tonight baby, cause theres nothing on but reruns [Hook]
