change is now ft. Rx Lyrics

I come from humble beginnings, little to start with

I part with everything I deserve, I promise

Pit against the world like a gladiator

The stadium is biased, some say free em, some say fuck em

The booth is the colosseum, the pen is the spear, the wrist is blessed

Testimony that poetry isn't dead, blow the trumpet, it's over for number chasers

This recital marks arrival of a marksman, mark it I'm hungry

I'm a man of my moral code and my pillars, disrespectful when you nerds talk like killers

Homie posed to be in jail until he see the pearly gates

Posted bail now he's back to clutching his 38

Don't approach me because I'm writing these sonnets

Motherfuckers got a bullet with my name on it

I can't forfeit orating honesty every time that I cook, look

Madras shall never be overlooked

I don't do this for a grammy, I do it so that my granny can listen to this

Shit and feel proud, in the grand scheme of things, give a fuck

About Cuban links, I'm just trying to lift the chains of the south

Mama the greatest, everyday she still facing fights

Relatives in her ear like yo you didn't raise him right

Father an honest man always a straight arrow

Made it to the skies from the bottom of the barrel

My girl a blessing forever the voice of reason

But my boys don't give a fuck about your reasons

We come from a different parcel of people

Pythons speaking parcel tongue, reeking of ego

Peace keeping is a long lost trait, we don't conversate unless it's money, rap

Or kilos, 40 bands in the safe in case I see them dark days

My motto lately is fuck you, pay me then part ways

Got off the call with shank, brings joy to see him flourish

When all is said and done our pockets shall

Never be malnourished, I plan well, my execution even better

What the fuck is knowledge worth in the mind of a beggar

Or power in the heart of a coward that don't take risk

Or potential in a bitch who know nothing apart from take dick

Art is a luxury, Art is a luxury they say, I say it's everywhere around us

The reason it's expensive is cause y'all expect an outcome

I don't outrun shit, pardon my french it may appear like bravado

Au contraire mon frère, lately I been living life like excommunicado

The motto simple, expel judgement, expand appreciation for real shit

I don't move for nothing unless it can make me feel shit

Fear this, shit the field trip is over

You can call me million things, you can never say that I'm mediocre

I'm here
