Hotter than the border, cooler than the corpse They call me Young Sole with that suicide voice I'm a workhorse, rap is my glue In this ghost-town it's always high noon Bury my peers, without wasting ammo And you don't wanna battle, emulate my hustle I'm the Lawnmower Man fightn' asteroid turf And I don't mind at all, my blade don't dull My name rings bells and burns bridges The industry hates me cuz I'm still eatin' An amateur chef fucking with rare spices Ain't had no fast food since I worked at McDonald's Self made man, nobody gave me shit too Except my addict father, thanks for the anger issues Keep your friends close and the hate at bay Don't be mad at me that bitterness will eat you alive In middle school I read Animal Farm And that's the real reason I had to pull out the card When those words leave my mouth it's like a cold dagger But this is my blood, and no one else's labor
Like a pig that can walk you are taller than me But I can run away, or I can butcher you Like a pig who can talk you say I am a fool But I can eat you, because you're just a pig
I make the music that I wanna make Doin' this race you gotta break some legs you gotta your dues Stare in the mirror, deep in them pupils beneath the lens lye the universe Hundred light-years and sinkin' On some space shit, some base their music When all you hear is explosives put down your weapon Snuggle up to the cold shoulder, cast your vote by the seed There's a quiet goin' on, don't sleep My teacher said get a GED pull out my classes Except my art teacher, said I would be famous Instead I'm infamous, the underwater MC The microorganism stayin' alive by thermal vents under the sea Where light barely reaches, where the preachers are slain Where curiosity dies cuz the teachers are lame I've picked my sides, it's a loosing battle Like my mother's book, it's that path less traveled No justice for the weak, no president can save us No dying on our knees, only our dreams can kill us At age 20 knowing everything it was my style I was older than that then, I'm younger than that now
