Black Glass (Unfinished)
It’s darkness on both sides of the argument
On one side you have rants induced by spliffs and liquor sips
Some legitimate, but not carefully calculated like missing digits
A side that’s quick to draw like a fast sketch contest
That sees fame as progress and the demise of others as their conquest
Even if their lyrics are honest to find any form of decorum you’d be hard pressed
Their appearance…heartless
But can you blame ‘em?
How do you tame misplaced messages filled with aggression?
And their only form of expression is to send messages in formats that reach the masses
The other part of this equation or problem is that far too often their opposition isn’t starving
Meaning they can’t relate and equate whatever answer they come up with as the solvent
The intellectuals who seem to know what’s best for you
Although they haven’t bought a ticket to your movies so they haven’t invested in your view
So for both sides I’m addressing this for you
A sort of conduit to conflict resolution
I’m armed with opposing views that make this execution more reality than illusion
And if my goal is elusive then I hope my opulence of knowledge alone can offer up a truce
To the authority figures who feel it’s their jobs to fend for…Mentor
Don’t simply stand on your soapbox from spots that aren’t adjacent to blocks
Instead of furthering yourself from responsibility be the bridge that eliminates the gap between (Unfinished)

Mad Rapper Rant
These dudes wanna make it, but I just wanna make it better
They wanna divide and I'm tryna unify to get hip hop together
It's not even about cheddar
No amount of currency can move me mentally from where I stand currently
Inadvertantly my verses are certainly worthy
I thoroughly invest in these lines like I'm tryn to get coke high
I wont lie, it gets frustratin to hear these basic rappers on mixtapes
And they get deals like they flippin through newspaper coupon pages
Im so far gone Drake shit
While loopin up the soul of KRS
I laid yall, rest
So if they never invest, my confidence will still be obvious
Or blatant like the attitude of an impatient girl kept waitin'
So I'm left waitin' on my shot like a chemo patient
I'll be more/B more patient like I'm sittin in an office at Johns Hopkins
I won't stop it
Even if I run out of options like I'm Tommy Frazier and Abdul Muhammad
Some dudes get blinded by the fame, so they're one track minded
But what they don't realize is that the game gets set back by that one track
Who wan bet that if I got on tracks and said shit absurd, that I'd prolly be heard
I'm largely disturbed by those impertinent verses
You know, those one's where they swagged out w/ their cash out
Shit makes me wanna lash out til they pass out
I'm tryna quantify all the shit that I'm mad bout
I'll just say plenty or infinitely many
I'm seething evidently
But all you can see with that evidence, is that I'm better than
And you weak dudes won't even equal to my sequel
My word play is lethal and your weapons are less than
This was expected I'm blessed man
They wanna divide and I'm tryna unify to get hip hop together
It's not even about cheddar
