Head Agent Pt. One
Let's go
What the Fuck you're gonna do
I'm the Head Agent
I'm prepared for the wars and the invasions
I'm the seeker of the souls for the occasion
I'm the eliminator for your violation
My higher self just guides my sensory
I'm not your average Joe dispensary
My artillery will wipe your memory
Aiming my Lobaev focused on my target
He's only two miles away but I still got em
The suit he's wearing is black but someone walked in
I had to shift my focus to stay locked in
He passed off a red book that read Good to Great
He turned around now I'm aiming right at his face
With hypersonic speed the bullet went through his face
Now it's time to move on to another place
Going straight to the park to climb up a tree
I'm the central leader when I'm aiming from the trees
My target sitting on a bleachers watching baseball
He put his phone to his ear that means he took the call
When he stood he dropped his phone he looked so appalled
Then my Lobaev sent a bullet through his fucking skull
Now I'm climbing down this tree headed downtown
To the luxury lofts for the shoot down
My next target just got off the elevator
He's the violator
I'm the eliminator
I got my Glock 43 aiming at his head with a Osprey Suppressor bout shoot him dead
I'm only standing 50 feet away from his door
He doesn't know that he's getting sent to the floor
He put his key in the lock started turning right
That's when his brain matter splattered on the hallway light
So his white suit is covered in his lying blood
He checked off my list now he's nipped in the bud
I put my pen in my pocket and I left the building
I'm so skilled in the verb called disappearing
Then I went to my hut just to get some rest
I laid down on my bed and yelled
I'm the best
So I rolled up an 8th in my raw papers
Heard a knock on my door I didn't have neighbors
What the Fuck you're gonna do
I'm the Head Agent
I'm prepared for the wars and the invasions
I'm the seeker of the souls for the occasion
I'm the eliminator for your violation
I don't deal with the negative energy
My higher self just guides my sensory
I'm not your average Joe dispensary
My artillery will wipe your memory
