I feel like Rocky
I put up a fight but life still drops me
So I get back up and do it again
I swear it thinks I'm cocky
Then it rains down harder
The red mist comes down, there's thoughts of my father
Stepmother, stepsister, real mother, real brother
Who can I trust
Me, me
And my girl
I told her from the start it's me and you versus the world
She said cool, cool
Just make me a promise, don't turn your back on them all
I'm still trying
But it's hard when you don't believe in lying
Backstabbing, pretending, that list is never ending
So I ended it
My friends list got a little edited
Then I spoke to the man inside that started this
He told me remember, you're an artist
So I picked up the brush again
It's like an America and Russia thing
You know, fit into their life
When they need a friend to pour their heart out like a bleeding pen then
Bang
Unexpected
I've learnt many lessons, they're more like blessings
Taught me a lot
No more stressing, no more games, no second guessing
I'm real, but they prefer the Matrix
No deal, no snakes, no fake chics
Can't make me feel I can't make it
That was daily, now I shake it
Too many fake bonds, so I broke chains to remain strong
Watch them feel with hatred when they've realised that I've changed
I call it evolving
Paid attention to the present moment
That's the only moment I'm owning
No more fear, no more mind controlling
I'm not a leaning post no more
My shoulders are sore
I got a little colder and declared war on several elders
That always swore they'd have my back
But when it came down to it, they chat crap
So I stepped up, they stepped back
They tried to make up but I can't have that
No, I can't have that
I'm not a mug, but they left me brewing
Left me in the corner like I was ruined
But I'm not a pyramid
I'm not a temple
If anything, I'm a little bit mental
That's a literal meaning
I know the devil exists 'coz I've seen him
I know the devil exists 'coz I've been him
Alongside god, me and him make a dream team
Pow
I'm lethal
I handle my business like a needle
You think I'm a little prick, but this concoction is rather evil
No need for a sequel because I'll defeat you and all your people
Once again, backtrack, do you not remember what happend in the prequel
Moving on, because I'm done with that
I'm underground, but I don't run with a rat
I bring the sound like thunder when I rap
I'm a london lad, so I don't act
You can try me, but I'm far from a sweet boy
Even when it's cold I'll still bring the heat boy
Hear what I say because I don't repeat boy
If you want to know, I'm happy to teach boy
Allow all the indirects, if I don't get hit then I won't get vexed
You don't spit yoga flames
There bogus claims, I've done the checks
You might have been big back in the day, but so was a T-Rex
He has spat a few skippy flows and now he thinks he's ghetts
