Its a new year
so lets conquer another true fear
u have the option now to read or hear
I’m so different, I feel more like a foreigner
known to recline minds like furniture
I feel like I’m finally making a killing, but where’s the coroner
where I’m from it’s kinda hard because there’s one on every block
whether it be gang fire or shot by a cop
end story, innocence is taken, when will it stop
how many more parents will be forced to pick a spot to plot their seed or crop
how can twisted minds form a knot
and unravel things one couldn’t believe was true or not
instead of strengthening each other, we choose to rot
they say this city is bleeding within, but I choose to clot
just give me time tic toc…..tic toc
I should stop before I lose my top
let me switch it up because it seems I do that a lot
my flow suicidal
with scripted words like a recital
the truth will expose u, because thats what it supposed to do
I’m standing here idle
hoping that in this life of the next, Ill become someone’s idol
because I’m tired of cycling through all my rivals
I’m rifling my survival
each time I recycle my vitals
I hope my words spiral around u
if talent is what you’re looking for, I hope it finally found u
it’s a circus u tell yourself every time someone clown u
what’s the purpose of looking up when everyone down u
see that’s why u have to check and change the people around u
if u ride that wave too long it might subside and drown u
chicks always ask why u look like that, u mad, I tell them nah I just like to frown boo
she say she’s blind to the bs, so I tell her no worries because everything I say sound true
yup it’s profound proof
it’s a circus out here because even I like to clown too
Nice flow in your verse and you capture the madness happening on the streets.
check this line. where I’m from it’s kinda had because
