They look for the cops and they packin' the dope

They do it for commas and zeroes and fees
I do it for honor, for zeroes like me
You do it for cheese, I do it for trees
Put you in the dirt, but I want the seeds
Heatinβ² up like global warming, [?] in your ozone, issue warning
Burn like the Amazon, you are in my forest
I transition you lame ducks, I am real, but they fake fucks (Yeah)
Hentai, but they dates sucks (Ooh)
Nice guy, not I
Got a wild lens with a wide eye and
A wide aim, why would I lie? (Why?)
Show me the heart, I go cardiac, I go Super Saiyan, I am the god
Like Holy Mary Mother of God
Think I have flaws? This shit's a trap
Once you step in, there ainβ²t no comin' back
Like you on this road, but you forgot the map
Your tire's blown, thereβ²s no turninβ² back
They turn to me and I burn the track
Turn on the beat and I burn a match
Leave no witnesses and that's a fact
Put me on display like a best buy
You donβ²t need a wedding, I'm the best guy
I mean best man, I mean goddamn, I mean Uncle Sam
I got a plan, I spread the love and I spread the buzz
Iβ²m top five like the best deal, I raise the bar, been [?] brah
Mumble, mumble, mumble, yeah
I'm a gunner with that smoke (Smoke)
You donβ²t want it, this I know (Know)
You just go do what you're told (Yeah)
You can't stop momentum (Nah-nah)
You canβ²t stop momentum (Nah-nah)
You canβ²t stop momentum (Uh-uh)
You don't really want that venom (Ooh)
No more rodents, no more roaches, no more fakes, no, no more poaches
Creatinβ² beef just for the gain,
Start a little bit of drama 'cause you want the name
Take advantage of the culture β²cause you want to get paid
But you don't want the shade, you donβ²t want the dark
You exploit the pain and you just call it art
But really, you don't want that (Pum-pum-pum-pum)
Pedals to the metal when I pull 'em with the chrome
Like a bullet to your dome, make you think about
Runninβ² with these thoughts, what you thinkinβ² 'bout?
Earninβ² what you bought
But really you just [?], you burnin' through the art
Iβ²m a masterpiece, but you lack the piece
You don't rap at [?], but you donβ²t rap with me
Get up on the track, you can count the meters
And if you doubt my meaning, go around the secrets
Run it down, I mean it (Yeah)
Every single line, every rhyme, every word
Stress every line, every bar, press play then delivered on time
I don't need a cosign, put the bleach in my mind
Put the Nas when I write, that's suicide
Thereβ²s a little part of that gets crucified
So cross it off and [?]
Resurrect your flow, call [?] go
I heard they donβ²t like my shit
They swing when I write these hits
But all they do is miss, mmm, all they do is whiff, man
They never call my [pic?], struck me down before I lift
But they can catch my hook when I swing into they ribs
Think you're ahead, youβ²re Ichabod Crane
Claim you got job, but you picked the wrong lane
But you quick to call names
Man, I'm sick of yβ²alls game
Better quit the ball playin', free follow my wave
Sick when I spit with it, but [?] hit it
Lay you down, now you all in my aim, blah
Mumble, mumble, mumble, yeah
Iβ²m a gunner with that smoke (Smoke)
You don't want it, this I know (Know)
You just go do what you're told (Yeah)
You canβ²t stop momentum (Nah-nah)
You canβ²t stop momentum (Nah-nah)
You can't stop momentum (Uh-uh)
You donβ²t really want that venom (Ooh)
Damn, Jimmy
All they wanted was to have a turn on the swing
You didn't have to go and do β²em like that
That's just lame
Hahaha

If you believe I have weaknesses, it is a deception
Once you step in, there ainβ²t no comin' back
Once you get involved with me, there is no escape
Like you on this road, but you forgot the map
You may be on a journey, but you are lost and lack direction
Your tire's blown, thereβ²s no turninβ² back
Your plans have fallen apart, and there is no way to fix it
They turn to me and I burn the track
People look to me for exceptional performances, and I deliver
Turn on the beat and I burn a match
When the music starts, I ignite and give an explosive performance
Leave no witnesses and that's a fact
I leave a lasting impact with my performances, and people will remember
Put me on display like a best buy
I am highly valuable and sought after like a top product in a store
You donβ²t need a wedding, I'm the best guy

You just go do what you're told (Yeah)
You follow instructions and have no originality
You can't stop momentum (Nah-nah)
You cannot halt my progress and success
You donβ²t really want that venom (Ooh)
You do not want to deal with the consequences of crossing me
No more rodents, no more roaches, no more fakes, no, no more poaches
I am eliminating all the insignificant and fake people from my life
Creating beef just for the gain
Others start conflicts or controversies for personal benefits
Start a little bit of drama 'cause you want the name
They provoke drama to gain attention and recognition
Take advantage of the culture β²cause you want to get paid
They exploit the music industry for financial gain
But you don't want the shade, you donβ²t want the dark
They avoid the negative consequences and challenges that come with fame
You exploit the pain and you just call it art
They profit from other people's suffering while claiming it as art
But really, you don't want that (Pum-pum-pum-pum)
In reality, they are not prepared for the consequences and struggles
Pedals to the metal when I pull 'em with the chrome

Runninβ² with these thoughts, what you thinkinβ² 'bout?
I provoke deep thoughts and introspection
Earninβ² what you bought
Reaping the rewards of your actions
But really you just [?], you burnin' through the art
But in reality, you are wasting your potential and creativity
Iβ²m a masterpiece, but you lack the piece
I am a work of art, while you are incomplete or lacking
You don't rap at [?], but you donβ²t rap with me
You lack the skill and talent that I possess
Get up on the track, you can count the meters
When you compete with me, you will lose and be left far behind
And if you doubt my meaning, go around the secrets
If you question or misinterpret my intentions, seek the truth
Run it down, I mean it (Yeah)
Examine the details, I am serious about what I say
Every single line, every rhyme, every word
Each line and word in my lyrics has significance
Stress every line, every bar, press play then delivered on time
I emphasize the importance of each line and verse, and I always deliver on schedule
I don't need a cosign, put the bleach in my mind
I don't require validation or approval, I cleanse myself of negativity
Put the Nas when I write, that's suicide
I write with the same level of skill and impact as Nas, risking everything
Thereβ²s a little part of that gets crucified
I sacrifice a part of myself to create meaningful art
So cross it off and [?]
Remove all doubt and uncertainty
Resurrect your flow, call [?] go
I revitalize and improve your rap style with my influence
I heard they donβ²t like my shit
I am aware that some people dislike my music
They swing when I write these hits
They try to imitate or compete with me when I release successful songs
But all they do is miss, mmm, all they do is whiff, man
However, their attempts are unsuccessful and fall short
They never call my [pic?], struck me down before I lift
They underestimate my potential and attempt to hinder my progress
But they can catch my hook when I swing into they ribs
But they cannot escape my striking lyrics and powerful delivery
Think you're ahead, youβ²re Ichabod Crane
You may believe you are superior, but you are actually foolish and ignorant
Claim you got job, but you picked the wrong lane
You may pretend to be successful, but you have chosen the wrong path
But you quick to call names
However, you are always ready to insult others
Man, I'm sick of yβ²alls game
I am tired of your manipulative and deceptive actions
Better quit the ball playin', free follow my wave
You should stop pretending and instead embrace my style and movement
Sick when I spit with it, but [?] hit it
My rap delivery is sick and powerful, but others can't replicate it
Lay you down, now you all in my aim, blah
I defeat you and now you are within my control
I'm a gunner with that smoke (Smoke)
I am highly skilled and ready to attack
You donβ²t want it, this I know (Know)
You don't want to face me, I am confident of that
You just go do what you're told (Yeah)
You follow instructions and have no originality
You canβ²t stop momentum (Nah-nah)
You cannot halt my progress and success
You canβ²t stop momentum (Nah-nah)
You cannot halt my progress and success
You can't stop momentum (Uh-uh)
You cannot halt my progress and success
You donβ²t really want that venom (Ooh)
You do not want to deal with the consequences of crossing me
Damn, Jimmy
Expressing surprise or admiration towards someone named Jimmy
All they wanted was to have a turn on the swing
All they desired was a chance or opportunity
You didn't have to go and do β²em like that
You didn't need to treat them harshly or cruelly
That's just lame
That is dull, unoriginal, or unimpressive
Hahaha
Expressing amusement or laughter
Nasty Knox
Describing oneself as bold or audacious
Itβ²s open season on all y'all
I am ready to go after and criticize anyone and everyone
Get ready

Knox Hill
Glad you did bro. Thanks for supporting the music and movement ππ―π₯π₯
mikewmt22
No problem bro. Itβs easy to support a artist with real contentπ€π€π€
Christopher Martin
Ya same here I seen him react to em darkness and he literally broke it down n I loved it and now I hear him sing damn
Louise Mcnally
@Knox Hill π£π£π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯ react to hopsin sag my pants!! Really want to hear you break it down nothing g9es over your head, and brilliant barz !!!! Keep killing it
RantsAre MyThing
Guess it should be expected. To be able to rate the bars you gotta have them yourself. You set yourself a high image to live up to with your channel and you own it. π₯π₯π₯π―
Christopher Martin
Yo you're right this guy can rap I was like I'll just listen I didn't expect this damn he's good lol
Brian H
@Christopher Martin same bro. I got this in my recommendations under a NF reaction vid (the reason I found this channel) and I was bored but dang I should have done this way earlier!!!
Kasani
Lmao yβall really think that rapping fast means that you have nice bars huh? Yβall need to listen to more rap if you think this is nice
Patrick Watkiss
@Kasani The two aren't mutually exclusive. But rapping faster does give you the advantage of being able to fit more bars into a track, while at the same time giving you more of a challenge.
