Hold on... I'll be back later.
EDIT >> OK I'm back.

Lemme give this a shot...
BLACK. THOUGHT. SPAZZES. OUT.
Uunhh... I'm sorry for ya loss /
Its somebody dead in the car & its prolly 'one of yours' /
The writing all across the windows & the walls /
Whether it was true or false, we shouldn't of got involved /
Remember, we walked past the teacher... take the chalk and laugh /
We wrote punishments: "I will not talk in class" /
Now its pistols punishing people for "talking fast" /
And all these innocent bystanders is hauling ass /
I hate to say "I told y'all"... but I told ya'll /
Things Fall Apart... when the center too weak to hold ya'll /
I'm just collecting what you owed to my old jawn /
You bout to get swooped down on... and stole'd on /
Fools swear they Wise... Wise men know they foolish /
But we was headed for the 'Web' even before computers /
I never thought you'd give me a reason to do this /
Caine & Able / Jesus & Judas / Ceasar & Brutus /
I see intruders.... Avert your eyes /
I told you keep out of the hood / Circumsize.
How could you sleep? I thought you always was "the first to ride" /
Ayo, you heard the line: "Everybody plays the fool"? /
Well I be that exception to the rule /
The Principal that hand-delivered lessons to the school /
I was making major moves / My Dollar Deja-Vu /
My mission when my ambition was brandishing a tool... to be an ICON /
Wearing slippers made of Python /
Getting mine quicker, cuz I'm slick as a pipeline /
Transporting the oil / Tribulation & Toil /
Hit the operation, but I'm back on the soil /
Got my crowned tilted, my gown quilted / Silk with Cashmere /
Burn Rome down in a minute / Built it last year /
Newsflash: I dodged a bullet that killed a cashier /
My homies told me to come with 'em to the Masjid /
Them brothers said: "Don't go from written bars filled with rage...
To prime-time television, in your gilded cage...
then forget there's people in the world still enslaved" /
I barb-wired my wrist... and let it fill the page /
Gun fire & flares / Sirens glare / I'm in an iron chair /
With people who care / Don't get the Lion's share /
When I don't give a fuck... then I ain't fair / I'm on a higher tier /
With people getting money... like the Financier /
Catch the Herald / I'm fresh, chopped-n beveled /
Rap on a Doctorate-level / So "F" Scott Fitzgerald /
Maybe I'm the new Rakim / Maybe I'm 'Fat Pharaohe' (Monch) /
Undergarments of Armor be my intimate apparel /
Pre-Kardashian Kanye / My rhyme-play immaculate /
Same cadence as D.O.C. (pre-accident) /
Maybe my acumen's on par with Kool G. Rap-n 'em /
Gimme the proper respect.. muhfuka we back again /
For a couple things "We Lost in the Fire" /
The Drive. The Desire. To Perform on a Higher Plateau /
I'm at that show, lost in the mire /
Wondering how we got so far from 'inspired' /
Look, when photos was sepia-tone /
And record players was something you would keep in your home /
Yo, "The Traveler" the meaning of Tariq he was known /
For the exemplary performance, uniquely his own /
I made the Twenty-One Pound (i.e. '215') for some a new found religion /
When money's put down its only one sound it make /
OGs and 'young lions' equally proud to listen /
The secret amalgam is umm... an algorithm /
Coming from where only Kings & crowns permitted /
The Darkness / Where Arhaeologist found my image-n parchment.
Rolled into a scroll / Holding a message for you /
It said: "The only thing Fa Sho'... is taxes, death & trouble" /
The Anomaly, Sworn Solemnly, High Snobity, Freakanomics & War Policy dichotomy /
That's Heaven & Hades / Tigris & Euphrates / His Highness /
"The Apple of The Iris" to you Ladies / As babies, we went from Similac & Infamil /
To the Internet & Fentanyl / When all consent was still against the will /
I got that Detox for ya'll / The Microphone Doctor Black Deepak Chopra /
I'm a Griot... that make you wanna Peacock your arms /
Every heavy dignitary paying me 'top regard' /
Boy, I'm 3 optics far from ya bi-noculars /
So the 'smart money' finna get the heat out the car /
Yo I'm K.Dot Lamar meets Tupac Shukar /
Got profiled by a few cops... too hot to charge /
Listen, Somebody said a pricetag was on a rappers head /
So we gon' see nice bag when a rapper dead /
The mask black / The flag green, black & red /
They prolly wave a 'white flag' after plasma shed /
No doubt, yo the game went they own route /
I can't explain what these lame kids is talmbout /
Or how they fit they WHOLE FOOT into they own mouth /
I put a couple bodies in a brown bag... Then I'm on route /
I'm sneaker shopping with my son... who's size 8 /
Prior to the release... cuz why wait? /
Look, at my estate I got electrified gates /
For these blasé guys hating at high rate /
Cuz I dodged fate / then got great / to fly straight /
If we ain't family or friends.. then we don't vibrate /
And I'm that gun in ya'll face / None of ya'll safe /
If I catch you at the right time / in the wrong place, Slipping /
Sipping on something with a strong taste /
Like Whiskey or Bootleg Bourbon with a corn base /
"My Levante" (i.e. My Maserati) resemble a a Vehicular Threat /
The mic I spray... resembling a Sickle of Death /
It ain't strenuous to come from a 'continuous breath' /
I set fire to the venue... Ima spin you & step /
Rinse + Repeat /
You checking for the sound of the beast /
I'm the hound, Ima creep / I get down. Ima eat. Ima Keep /
Something to lay a naysayer to sleep / Playing with heat /

Listen, you in a Tournament with a Permanent Crease /
I strike fear in the hearts of rap figures /
Whose mind bear the stigmas of time, no 'black privilege' /
From Boom Brrap Niggas... to Trap Niggas /
You in the trap with us / Where the lines is as Vivid /
As the walls on a graph, autographed by the Lord of Wrath /
I reside between the seconds on a Chronograph /
How much more CB4 could we afford? /
Its like a Sharia Law... on "My Cherie Amor"/
How much hypocrisy can people possibly endure? /

Out of New Orleans / Took a golf cart to the Baccarat / From the Waldorf /
What was on the walls... that depend on what you call 'art' /
Ima say 300k ain't even in the Ballpark /
I charge more just for awkward smalltalk /
So yes, whose fucking wit it if its not the best? /
I get the lobby painted fresh, upon my request /
Its Kafka-esque / His Holiness / Stop the Press /

I've always played my part / From the start /
Back in Philly where the triggers is mandatory to spark /
With the slightest inflammatory remark'll have you & 'the living'... a category apart /
Listen, a grain of salt will tip the scales / It never fails /
Walk on eggshells / Sleep on a bed of nails /
Criminal Records like Record Sales / Making Heads or Tails /
We like Henrietta Lack / Up in the Cells /
My mother was a working-class, very loving woman /
Who struggled. Every dinner coulda been our 'last supper' /
I come home, chasing good-for-nothing half-cousins...
