lyrics

Emotional, anti-sociable, my state of mind is non-negotiable. I don't care if I'm approachable. I can see it in your demeanor you think you're meaner than the next. So let's address the greeting that you gave me, no it ain't all gravy. You didn't even make an attempt to treat me like a man when you gripped my hand and you winking to your friend. Why you think I'm lifting, ripping composition. Talking with precision, coughing no you listen. Laughing? No it's action. Prepping for this moment, lessons of aggression.

Yes, I'm a Muslim tattooed like a Hoodlum. If you think you could son, but I think you shook son.

Pain is a sensation that you don't wanna feel, but if you've ever felt it you just wanna kneel on the ground helpless thinking you was real. You're fragile in a battle, so emotional. Yelling uncontrollable. The setting's getting blurry, getting ready to get worried. My contacts falling out of my face. I brace for impact in fact I take a taste. You scheming, you didn't have a good enough reason. I'm breathing heavy running down the street, who do I see? Son, we got beef no it need to get checked. Son, we got beef no he need to get left in the dirt hurting for certain, no love for this person, my skin's bare and it's spurting but I don't care if it's curtains.

So the aftermath, the drastic actions I took got me looking sloppy from my head to my foot. Unless it's protection respect it, direct your aggression respective of who deserves it. This person you're having words with - be a wordsmith. Not everything is urgent, overlook much. Don't put your foot in your mouth or you'll be walking with a crutch. This is for those who love the One who created them - undebatable. The moral: don't quarrel over the price of a quarter. Quarrel over the life of your daughter. Over the right of a martyr. Keep your sight in the distance and live life with persistence.
