Skillmatic Lyrics

Before you plot your first bar ask yourself "What's the mission?"

A million riding the wave or thousands that are truly listening

Do you wanna go viral or do you wanna make a difference

Well dang I did both I guess I'm disingenuous

I rarely indulge or am moved by what cream does

And you'd think I'd be walking around the town with a mean mug

With all this hate so-called friends exposed

But even when I was broke I lived a life that most would dream of

As a kid I really wanted to be a Fireman

Inspire by comics like Superman and Ironman

I really admired him and now I'm never missing motion

Flow intact like Jamal when he dishing off to Joic

Nah it's like Joker feeding Murray

Or Green seeing Curry off the pick when he's in motion

Man I can't pick a rapper that's even close to him

Out my mouth with the slang I'm painting houses like The Irishman

I master my breath control by rapping at different altitudes

Martin with the bars but I be thinking "What would Malcolm do?"

I don't think he'd care about the numbers his album do

As long as he made an impact and said something palpable!

And I'm the same if I don't mean then I don't say it

If we debate it in the studio then I probably won't lay it

Ya'll bars are fabricated I'm Jason Bourne

Eliminating every single agent that Director Conklin activated!

I craft statements that capture greatness

I even leave people who hate rap fascinated and advocating

For more spaces for rap stages but the wack keep hating

I lit the torch and ya'll be whining bro grab and take it!

Enough of these corny rappers your flow is the worst

I spit multi-syllabics inside this MultiVerse

With multiple verses I spit past my passiveness

With this classic vernacular mixed with my business acumen!
