rumble
Afu-Ra Lyrics

I'm a problem child, I'm my own worst enemy
I can be difficult to deal with and often sabotage myself.

No matter what happens in life, precise and nothing scares me
I am confident and fearless, even in the face of danger.

Even the bombs is exploding all around me
I am unfazed by chaos and disruption.

I be the type of man, who stand his ground, firmly
I am unmovable in my beliefs and convictions.

I'm compulsive, psychotic in the mental
I struggle with obsessive and unstable thoughts.

A walking fear factor, seven thirty, it's that simple
I am intimidating and scary to those around me.

I've been exposed to a universe of negative fallout
I have experienced a lot of negative and harmful situations in life.

The fact that I move on nothing, it makes me wanna ball out
The idea that I am unaffected by negative events makes me want to act out or rebel.

Instead, I put vocals to the beats and get it popping
I find release and expression through making music.

The harm glare right through the track, I feel like rocking
My anger and intensity is channeled into my music, making it powerful and energizing.

But back to the program, damn
Despite my emotional turmoil, I try to stay focused on my goals and work.

My evil and is taking over like I'm sinking in some quicksand
My negative thoughts and emotions can sometimes consume me and overwhelm me.

Really I feel like going up in a blaze, hot damn
Sometimes I feel like I am so out of control that I might as well just self-destruct.

I'm a cross of Jack the Ripper and the Son of Sam
I am a dangerous and unpredictable combination of violent personalities.

It's like I'm living five lives and of five guys
My mind is constantly shifting and changing, making me feel like I am multiple people at once.

With five million ways to bust heads, so forgive my slide
I have a lot of pent-up aggression and often struggle to control it.

I said yo, yo, do you wanna rumble?
Do you want to fight or argue with me?

Come and rumble with me
Let's engage in a conflict or confrontation.

I've been working out these problems in my mind
I am trying to process and deal with my inner turmoil.

Imagine yourself free falling, falling and falling
I feel like I am constantly spiraling out of control and have no sense of stability or security.

A thousand story's, after diggin' some stars in scrolls
My mind is a jumbled mess of conflicting thoughts and memories.

That's how I feel, twenty-four hours a day
My inner turmoil is a constant presence in my life, never truly going away.

From Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Every day of the week, my struggles continue to consume me.

Friday and even on Saturday, it's like I'm trapped in a box
Even on the weekends or days off, I feel confined and trapped by my inner struggles.

Uh-huh, going to war with myself
I am constantly battling my own thoughts and emotions.

So I can't stop thinking about killing myself
My struggles with mental health often make me contemplate suicide.

So I do what I do, to do what I do, to break the rules
I often rebel against social norms or expectations to cope with my inner turmoil.

Only form of therapy is to spit it for you
My music is my outlet for processing and expressing my emotions.

Charismatically drastic with this rap shit
I am charismatic and intense in my approach to making music.

Thoughts are falling off but send them back like elastic
Although my thoughts can be scattered, I am able to pull them back together and channel them into my music.

Get the politic sorrows in the music game
I aim to address political and social issues through my music.

I'm trynna make sense of corruption in my brain
Through music, I am trying to understand and process the twisted thoughts and emotions in my mind.

I hope this part of my life, don't want war with my seeds
I hope that my personal struggles do not negatively impact my family or future children.

Masturbation of pornos, wrapped in best flame
I sometimes turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms, like pornography, to deal with my struggles.

The little things, that's gon' drive me insane
Small triggers or stressors can cause my inner turmoil to flare up and become overwhelming.

I'm in hell, raised in lyrically blazing
I feel like I am in a constant state of turmoil or chaos, but I use music to help me cope.

To make a long story short, I'm half man, half amazing
I am flawed and struggle with mental health, but I also have a lot of talent and creativity to offer.

Sometimes I don't know whether I'm coming or going
My inner turmoil can be disorienting and confusing.

So I dive head first into the track and keep flowing and flowing
I use music as a way to escape and ignore my problems, allowing me to keep going and pushing through.

My hearts on my sleeve, my loves growing and growing
I am open and vulnerable in my music, sharing my emotions and allowing myself to grow.

From the forty come licks, that's right I watch 'em crumble
My music is powerful and meaningful, able to impact and inspire others.

Survival of the fittest, this business means business
The music industry is cutthroat and competitive, with only the strongest surviving.

Gotta say what I mean, gotta handle to my business
I need to be honest and true to myself in my music, while also staying on top of the business side of things.

I'm one soldier fighting against a whole army
I am often fighting against my own inner demons, but it can feel like I am fighting against the entire world.

I'm little with bullets, yeah and none of them harming
Despite my vulnerability and struggles, I am not completely powerless.

My third eye, six stones, the eyes on the prize
I am focused on achieving success and staying true to my vision.

Going from knowledge, build the wise
I am constantly learning and growing, using my experiences to become wiser and more mature.

And if I ain't successful
If I don't achieve my goals or become successful in my music career,

In the back of my mind, I gotta wonder why
I will inevitably question and analyze what went wrong and what I could have done differently.

I keep my nose, yeah, fit to the grindstone
I stay focused and dedicated to my work, even through difficult times.

Going and showing and growing top of these fucking poems
I am always striving to improve and create impactful, meaningful music.

And do you wanna rumble?
Do you want to engage in conflict or confrontation with me?

And do you wanna rumble?
Do you want to engage in conflict or confrontation with me?

And do you wanna rumble?
Do you want to engage in conflict or confrontation with me?

And do you wanna rumble?
Do you want to engage in conflict or confrontation with me?
