First off nigga I got bars
Gimme any beat watch me pick it a part
Minds telling me to leave but I follow my heart
cin't no shuffling the deck get to playing yo cards
Got it down to a science when displaying my art
For me to do this so easy I'm going so hard
Shock em with the flow imma lyrical god
Mookie so perfect yet I'm so flawed

Take a hit of the spliff now I'm up in the stars
cm I coming back to Earth no I'm headed to Mars
Or maybe Saturn babblin patterns getting so odd
Speach impediment rolling my R's
When you listen to the flow better listen with ores
Cause it's treacherous enamored with the the rhythm now it got me feeling so lecherous
Me they thinking imma a dog so it's nothing for me to fetch a bitch
If this is our time why the fuck yall looking hesitate
Guessing sketching out competition draw something
But it's so hard to tell if people be really on something
Better than the kings lil homie you must be on something
Yeah we locked and loaded if you stepping bet we all dumping
Holes in yo squad
Sick with the aura I'm ebola plus sars
Yeah imma smartie yet I'm going retard
Yeah they say I'm the magician this another facade
Cutting beats real deep so I leave it with scars
Like I do with these bitches
I'm new to these pimpin
I bet they think I'm beautifully gifted it's true when I stick it I leave the pussy suited in stitches
So when I drop my pants they be saying oh lawd
If you looking confused just listen and nod

Imma killer in this game you would think I had mods
Yet I'm broader bringing slaughter to the planet we on

After smoking marijuana, I feel elevated or enlightened

cm I coming back to Earth no I'm headed to Mars
Returning to reality from a high state of mind or imagination

Or maybe Saturn babblin patterns getting so odd
In a strange mental state, discussing odd ideas or patterns

Speach impediment rolling my R's
Using speech flaws for creative expression

When you listen to the flow better listen with ores
Pay close attention to my rap technique and flow

Cause it's treacherous enamored with the the rhythm now it got me feeling so lecherous
The powerful rhythm captivates me even as it makes me feel lustful

Me they thinking imma a dog so it's nothing for me to fetch a bitch
I'm viewed as a player, so it's easy for me to attract women

If this is our time why the fuck yall looking hesitate
If this is our moment, why hesitate or second-guess?

Guessing sketching out competition draw something
Analyzing and planning against competitors in this industry

But it's so hard to tell if people be really on something
Difficult to determine if others are truly up to something

Better than the kings lil homie you must be on something
Claiming to be superior to royalty, or suggesting delusion

Yeah we locked and loaded if you stepping bet we all dumping
Prepared and ready for action if confronted, will react forcefully

Holes in yo squad
Weaknesses or vulnerabilities within your group

Sick with the aura I'm ebola plus sars
My presence is contagious and harmful like deadly viruses

Yeah imma smartie yet I'm going retard
Despite intelligence, I display foolish or reckless behavior

Yeah they say I'm the magician this another facade
Known as a master of my craft, yet it might be a facade

Cutting beats real deep so I leave it with scars
Creating profound impact with my music, leaving a lasting impression

Like I do with these bitches
Similar to how I handle women or relationships

I'm new to these pimpin
Inexperienced in the art of pimping or manipulation

I bet they think I'm beautifully gifted it's true when I stick it I leave the pussy suited in stitches
Others may see me as talented, but when I apply my skills, I leave a lasting impression

So when I drop my pants they be saying oh lawd
Surprising reactions when revealing my true self or abilities

If you looking confused just listen and nod
If you're puzzled, just keep listening and acknowledging

Imma killer in this game you would think I had mods
Highly skilled and successful in this industry, seeming almost out of this world

Yet I'm broader bringing slaughter to the planet we on
Despite my success, I remain grounded, focused on dominating this world
