Departure (rap) - A Rapper’s Dichotomy

★ intro: departure ★
What did rule #6 say?
What did rule #6 say?
What did rule #6 say?
Who are you to tell me what i ought to be?
Who are you to tell me what to see?
What is it that you expect from me?
Black or white, it's all part of a rapper's dichotomy

★ verse 1: departure ★
And regardless of race, we all still participate
Climbing toward babel's pyramid schemes
An endless discovery to yahweh or whomever it may be
But yet cowardice at sight of archangel rings
Gong go the bells from john's song
A letter to family, i've heard many, but many have heard it wrong
True story like set final, drums heard from the tribal
It's a child with a train, back and forth, playing on the lionel
And with a pen, i have etched these writings in paper like the vinyl
And with a pen you could say i bleed like vaginal, vaginal
I'm careful with the words of tangible, it's actual
Ling ling sitting on the swing of capsules
That's a new generation in your hands son, what's your plan, son?
The pressure got to him
He hid in ted kaczynski's cabin locked in boxes with a box in it like lupe fiasco said
Don't wanna get stuck like 90 angle on a truck bed
The beloved are dead, and when it's only you, who will paint the painting?
Who will tell our family's story when war eventually never changes?
Who will remember tio and tia with a swansong
And who will put roses on my grave when i'm just a brick in the wall?

★ refrain: departure ★
Who are you to tell me what i ought to be?
Who are you to tell me what to see?

★ verse 2: hoodie hilltop ★
This pen gets bloody, i wrote my sacrifice
I've had my lowest nights and promised myself i won't have it twice
Thinking about my death so much i almost manifested it
But i love my life so much that i would die just to protect this shit
I love it when they hate me, a little less when i'm respected
I hate when i'm embraced, a little bit more when i'm rejected
Recording verses early morning, storming thoughts at breakfast
Performing for myself, i'm tryna form a cordless friendship
Dismissing christmas and holidays for work life
An instant abyss of missing sight to see the pyre's light
Fuck i gotta do to make you realize i'm the greatest?
Ain't no game of names or faking famous faces on the playlist
My struggling's seen as a required trait
Even getting, even keeping balance, walk the wire straight
Season over season, need a reason why i'm crying over
Leaving how i'm leaving while i try defying my own fate
I wanna sleep but i am wide awake
Ignorance is bliss, i'd rather fingertips are missing
Than to point at laugh at someone as their life is crashing into flames
I'm not gon' lie, the fire's beautiful as
Looking into heaven's gates or mia goth's bootyhole
And if you ask me, that's the same place
And if i get the chance, i'm tryna fly until my face embrace it
On and off of meds, the meditation makes me stay sane
Blue shell of hell embellished, tell 'em it's a great race
Nervous up in 1st and feeling safer back in 8th place
Either way i hit the finish line
Winning sinners tryna' make it back to mine for dinner time
Chinese take out on devil's night
What you talking about is everything that i would never like
