requestin a second to catch my breathe
people lookin at me like theyre starin at death
its apparent in my appearance im a product of stress
im sparingly adhering to the topic of rest
i caynt give no more, i got nothin left
only thing im livin for is to earn my respect...
cuz i refuse to be deduced to a product without purpose
a cynical decision based souly on the surface
people placin pressure got me prayin inside of churches
i know it appears i got it together on the surface
but im lookin in the mirror seein a man hidin behind curtains
inside dyin tryin to be perfect
wonderin if all this work is worth it
nervous about the verdict of my life and my verses
lookin to the sky talkin to the son of a virgin
jesus christ was i worth the burden
im uncertain of which path to follow
im aware of the pain and sorrow
but im numb to it now
and im scared to feel it tomorrow

cuz i refuse to be deduced to a product without purpose
a cynical decision based souly on the surface

i would have quoted the next two bars..but u repeated surface...and according to what lil i have learned thats not technically sound...but ...it was still cool..
Nice drop...

it was on topic and poetic which is koo ya know? Like....... you seem to be more of a thinker and a poet then a rapper. How to put that in a comparison, hm... Okay:

Biggie- rapper
Tupac- poet, but also a rapper

And that point it just comes down to preference. I like poetic words better, but some people highly prefer the flow and a style of someone who can rap.

yeah bout the surface i hate that i did it but it fit the best and still stayed true to the intent so i just left it. i appreciate ur feeds. catch i agree about me bein more poetic im not an mc im def more of a lyricist but im learnin
