[Verse 1: Cise Star] It’s like lonely children wandering over buildings Money that makes sense, current events I’m building Currency to the billions, money became policy Fueling a man’s greed, the heart of all atrocities Power easy to please with bitches all on they knees Praying to golden calves and causing mental disease Evils, they came inside me, mind became a vulture Searching for the death in life and calling it pop culture Stomach ulcer, laceration to my intestines I’m restless, praying to God—maybe he bless this A lost prophet, crucifying my final message But losing meaning like a crucifix hanging from necklace I’m desperate, making criminal records over police beats Knowing the ledge, reaching the peak Knowing the ledge, reaching the peak
[Verse 2: Akin Yai] Who can’t conform? Who can’t be told what is norm? Who gotta perform for therapy? Whose soul is torn?
