[00:07.96]Yo you'll better wake up you think we don't see you'll drifting
[00:11.92]Sleeping on the job and forgetting your position (position)
[00:14.52]Sit straight and listen what you are missing
[00:16.81]I cook up a batch hot straight out the kitchen
[00:19.41]No indecision I spit right
[00:20.88]Heavy as a fist fight
[00:22.23]No gloves and no masks
[00:23.52]No pain and no slack
[00:24.85]No way to look back
[00:26.01]Nobody to say I can't make my own path
[00:28.36]Cause the way that you'll act I wanna break something
[00:31.2]Comin' at me like the pain I feel means nothing
[00:34.13]Comin' from a place where you can't relate
[00:36.45]Where every word from your face comes across as fake
[00:39.2]And I can hardly take the way that you'll treat us
[00:41.49]Sending this out to anyone who won't believe us
[00:43.69]Spelling it out so you'll know the deal
[00:45.58]And if you can't feel it maybe you can't feel
[00:47.89]I'm standing in the middle of it
[00:49.65]Middle of it

[01:08.58]Say what you used to say and act how you used to act
[01:11.51]Every time you heard my occupation was a rap attack (rap attack)
[01:14.59]My conversation's stacked I switch my defense on you
[01:16.65]Every time you want to get deep you'll see my knuckle package
[01:19.82]Born to die ferocious emcee make you go back and write your rhymes
[01:23.19]My style chokes up like a little league baseball player
[01:25.3]It moves I'm strangling as I'm swinging as main mangler
[01:28.21]I wanna dee-four poach you as your seafood is cee-four
[01:30.39]I'm gonna rap and you still knee-high
[01:32.08]You'll wanna train with me guy
[01:33.729996]Man it's destructive
[01:34.509995]Man it's like jabs from boxing champ Lennox
[01:36.6]Perfect for your head I'll fit it like New Era hats
[01:39.42]That top off suits B-boy etiquette
[01:41.020004]Express myself with my hang-side
[01:42.369995]Then I extend one finger the middle fucking

[02:04.58]Yo Motion (yeah )
[02:05.86]Sometimes I feel it's like nothing that I ever do is ever good enough (for real)
[02:10.23]Like I should stop and go back to L A
[02:12.95]Back away where I know I won't be seen
[02:14.96]And nobody's gonna critique the music that I make
[02:17.15]And mistake me for some fucking kid with a backpack
[02:19.63]Rapping on a track just to make a buck
[02:21.86]For a mix-tape that sucks
[02:23.06]And dee-jays that don't get it
[02:24.83]But I been down that road and I know
[02:27.17]People don't wanna go where I might go
[02:29.36]Don't wanna know what it's like
[02:30.86]To step outside your zone with a mike
[02:33.23]Just controlling the hype
[02:34.47]And if we need to take shots from them
[02:36.91]And be stopped by them just to make these ends
[02:39.68]Then so be it I will not hold my breath
[02:42.42]I'm gonna spit 'til I got none left
