Fortify your spirit and your mind
Before you
Come up to the homie actin' slime
Beware of snakes amongst the saviors who be tryin'
To copy your grind and snuff out your shine
Yeah, I said we 'Fordan' like the lock and key
No testin' me
'Cause my enemies will be the ones blessin' me
And in time, I'm callin' every bluff and usin' my crew
To entrust that I climb
Who woulda guessed it
This Brooklyn boy get on the track and blessed it
This ain't what you expected
But here we are reapin' blessings
May not be what you requested, but here this and respect it
My mind's a gadget to be inspected
And dissected by your favorite genius
A penny for your thoughts while my dollars stay on thesis
And my brain be on some frequencies
That would egregiously claw up your mental
All with a pad and stencil
I'm out to Venus when others are cemented
Givin' thanks for the rough days
Not lyin in resentment cause that stuff stains
And leave you dogs with mites, flees, agita
And unhealthy mange and y'all hope that y'all change me
I be the Brown Sugar Ray knockin' dominoes heaven bound
Comin' straight from the underground
Givin' Lucy the runaround
All cause I spun the crowd in a positive direction
And that's down to the ions
I'm just a scion of Zion
Diggin' heels into pythons
Only sharpened by iron
With his eyes on the horizon
Climbin' through hydraulics
And that's word to Poseidon and Neptune
I'm adept to all the spiritual lenses
Strippin' me of pretenses
That I need anything in excessive amounts
Check the count, I got no time for clout
Only for God, my craft, and tryna figure life out
I said fortify your spirit and your mind
Before you
Come up to the homie actin' slime
Beware of snakes amongst the saviors who be tryin'
To copy your grind and snuff out your shine
Yeah, I said we 'Fordan' like the lock and key
No testin' me
'Cause my enemies will be the ones blessin' me
And in time, I'm callin' every bluff and usin' my crew
To entrust that I climb
Man the flow is so ridiculous
It'll give wings to Icarus, insight to the ignorant
And terraform all timorous teachings from your filaments
And ligaments
It is my due diligence
To be the impetus of imminent stimulus
And any insolence that makes its way towards me
Dares to come and thwart me
Be prepared to courtly
Find me where the swords be
Before I come before thee and shortly
Show you the reasons they will award me
The medals and medallions, accolades by the gallon
Segments with Jimmy Fallon
All cause I'm givin' lyricism a facelift
And I phase shift
Between the prophecies of present and analogies of ancient
This ain't a op-ed, it's a statement
Of affirmation for the sake of any wannabes that's hatin'
AI keeps a noun adjacent
For any pronoun feelin' that they are in need of replacement
This not a form of abasement
Just a new way to commandeer the same spaceship
These verses be a third degree above Volume 1
Yet, three skips from the sun
Is where the sixth degree of separation keeps the truth
And air in his lungs
I keep the truth on my tongue
Because most of these folks don't even know how much
Of their silver is flung
Goin' from clueless Judahs to Judas
Tradin' up silver for the dumbest of excuses
Fortify your spirit and your mind
Before you
Come up to the homie actin' slime
Beware of snakes amongst the saviors who be tryin'
To copy your grind and snuff out your shine
Yeah, I said we 'Fordan' like the lock and key
No testin' me
'Cause my enemies will be the ones blessin' me
And in time, I'm callin' every bluff and usin' my crew
To entrust that I climb
Yeah
