4 Minutes Lyrics

Welcome to this well-defined world called my mind

My name is Phinix, I move steady

I am glad you found time to unwind

and start this journey

I hope you don't get lost in this amazing maze of a mastermind

See, in these dangerous times it's important that your sight is well aligned

Focus, allow yourself to think outside the box cause

we've already had more than enough of that quarantine

I'm cold with it

Prolific

The omnific

God did it

This will only take 4 minutes

Four minutes of greatness

Four minutes of dominance

I am what happens when Magnifaya spits flames

Burns with the mic and stage to ashes

Then rises from those ashes

I'm greatness reincarnated

So, you cannot match this

I heard them say that all men are dogs

Well, then let the sleeping dogs lie

But all my guys and I spit is truth that can't be put to bed

So, you cannot mattress!

My IQ is way too high to

Waste on nonsensical gossip and debates

Some call me crazy but I'm just absolute madness

This is

Four minutes of elegance

Four minutes of excellence

Too many intellectually-inept people have strong views concerning politics

Too many people want to guide me spiritually when in actuality they're hypocrites

Too many people asking for handouts when they lack the discipline to save, invest, or regenerate

Too many people borrowing money when they lack the decency to pay back or to simply communicate

I stopped beating about the bush, that's the truth, I'm as direct as they come

I stopped looking for approval, I'm a youth that's getting past that conundrum

My throat is a dungeon

I breathe fire, say it right folks

I'm a Phoenix, not a dragon

I'm a 90's kid

I write with the grit

I might never fit

I mightily spit

I'm metaphorically rich

So, get these shackles off my feet

This is

Four minutes of relevance

Four minutes of competence

For years I have wondered what truly makes a man

Is it God, spirituality? I'm trying to understand

Money, Power, main babe, side babe, having as many as he can

Cause we're all taking risks, calculated or ignorant (ha)

Rewards motivate when they are within reach

Am I willing to bear the cost for the glory that I seek

Love, Peace, Wealth, and a fulfilled destiny

or will I just be all talk if I never reach my peak

Every risk that I have taken needed calculation

From the courses that I have chosen for the levels of my education

All the money that I've invested to build a solid foundation

To the affairs of my heart that exceeded infatuation

I can't afford to be reckless, no, not in this economy

Not when we won't eat love in holy matrimony

Not when I plan on raising kids and build a solid family

While tens of others look up to me for help and security (ah)

What differentiates a man is his ability to think

Contemplate, calculate, before you take a risk

This is

Four minutes of confidence

Four minutes of extravagance

I listen but I do not just follow anything that seems to be the trend

The heart may be deceptive but I've seen brothers stick closer than a friend

There's power in consistency, even bliss may come to an end

Because when the flower isn't watered, it soon starts to bend

A lot of love has been lost and my city is well known to devour the spoil

He prepares a table before me in the presence of my enemies

So, before you ask me what I bring to the table

I ask, do you even have a cup to collect this overflowing oil

This is

Four minutes of acceptance

Four minutes of repentance

Lord knows I'm sick with the flow

This is my heartbeat on an instrumental

Lord, I know I'm sick and flawed

So, heal my heart, come heal my mental

'Don't judge a book by its cover

This law you cannot deny

Don't cover a judge by his books

There's more than what meets the eye

They thought I stopped writing, I heard them criticize

But how can someone quit their passion, that can never be wise

It is ignorance to watch me burn and think I will never rise

The sun may set in the west but even Kanye knows the direction of every sunrise

It's Phinix

So Good
