Matt Sandler - The Flood Lyrics

I don't believe in writers block, probably because I write a lot
And that shits coming from my brain, no way I get my mind to stop
Practice to make sure that every rhyme I jot is piping hot
The best to ever do it from my town is how I like to rock
Fight with heart, forever let the record say gave all I got
Studied Jay & others, built a hustle that you can't knock
Irish without the luck, never benefited from shamrocks
Built my own personal legend, been worthy of every blessing
Any loss I ever mentioned was turned right to a lesson
Any thoughts of second guessing get squashed soon as they're present
I'm on, no other setting, they lost from misdirection
I'm Kirko mixed with Nipsey, my Marathon is Progression
Want me to stop you gotta kill me, there's really no other way
Ever since I saw the joy me doing this put on my mother's face
Gut the safe, tryna run it up until we flood the bank
Stomach pains, from wanting it so bad it's all that I can taste
Nothing done in haste, not a single verse goes to waste
Always got a point to make, I'll make it til I'm in my grave

Always got a point to make, I'll make it til I'm in my grave
Write the songs I wanna write to say the things I wanna say
Controlling how I tare the page, roll through tiers among the greats
Clear the stage, hear my name, ringing bells from here to Spain
Wear the flame, the torch holder opening Olympic Games
Share the gain but hide the losses til I've taught the lesson strained
Using each one as an opportun' for getting way
More inside myself than the previous day
I'm the sun heat from the rays, you like the sleet & the rain
Free from the games, every decision getting evenly weighed
Speak with the same, kind of conviction as the leader of gangs
So when you teaching the greats, make sure you leave in my name
Keeping the same, energy as each elite that was trained
Easy to say, I'm the best so I lead through exchange
Peeping the way, that I come across, believe he's insane
But he doesn't change, in Jesus name, he is the same
Kid who fell in love with rap before leaving 5th grade
Now I heat up the stage, while taking notes & heed what they say
Any emotion that I'm feeling you can see on my face
Started off behind a wall, now I'm leaping the gate
Bout to empty out the stash of everything that I've made
So come along & you can watch a legacy being paved
