Madness in a Cup
Mr. Lif Lyrics

Begin initiation, it's been too many years awaitin
Starting the process that's been long overdue

While other niggas fell off I been contemplatin
While others have failed, I've been strategizing

What's the best to blow up the scene
What's the most effective way to make an impact

Murder all the wack and get away clean
Eliminate inferior competition without repercussions

Plan one, all the wack got done
First plan executed flawlessly

State by state, one by one
Eliminating competition systematically

And peace to my niggas in the ton
Acknowledging supporters in the process

Here come plan two, separate they crew
Introducing the next phase, divide and conquer

Divide and conquer, because it's evident I'm stronger
Weakening the opposition to assert dominance

than the average man generated by the ganja
More powerful and strategic than the average weed smoker

Some mc's got 40 ounce hearts and blunt brains
Some rappers have alcohol and drug-related limitations

and they frames are supported by a spine of cocaine
Drug addiction affecting the foundation of their success

But I'm rollin dimes wit ya minds
I'm using my intelligence to manipulate my opponents

Sippin ya heart and on time ya spine is
Controlling my opponents' emotions and actions

in lines exported to Peru
Referring to cocaine trafficking

and I'm about to flip on somethin illa
About to do something impressive

tippa Heinekin or Miller the blank page filler
Drinking and writing rhymes

Until ya bring the ruck this is just madness in a cup
Until my opponents challenge me, what I've done is nothing

Whether in the studio on the road or on tour
Regardless of the situation

my mic remains raw
My talent is innate and unpolished

verbal, metamorphosis of metaphor
Transforming simple words into complex meanings

In the cocoon to incubate ascend to higher rates
Developing and improving as an artist

Never no time to wait TC can kill the rhymes annihilate
Never waiting, always improving. Also, it references an artist named TC who can kill other rappers' rhymes

My suffixes cause eclipses
My rhymes are so powerful they overshadow others

Mad elixirs for dime smokin blunt fixers
My rhymes are like magic potions for drug addicts

My flow snatches the earth off its axis
My words are so impactful they can disrupt the world

and leave civilazation on galactic paralysis
Causing a standstill in the world, leaving it mesmerized

My analysis is that of an exodus
My perspective is that of a mass departure

Synthesis like photo, "Africa" like toto
Combining elements like a photographer, references to the song "Africa" by Toto

Ya unto my dojo, the setting is Pluto
Welcome to my world, set in Pluto (an obscure, distant planet)

Then back to earth to kill niggas wit my judo
Returning to reality and using my skills to defeat my opponents

Sixteen century foolbro, on horsebacks through your thorax
Riding on horseback mounted with weapons, conquering opponents with ease

Relax drink up, this is just madness in a cup
Take it easy, this is just an impressive display of skill

Line by line I combine phrases to braze kids
Slowly and carefully crafting rhymes that amaze listeners

The rules of my raps form labryinths and mazes
My rhymes are complex and confusing, like a maze

Melting glaciers cuz my rhymes warm globally
My words have the power to affect the entire world, like melting ice caps

broken ozones casualties and microphones
Polluting the environment and destroying microphones with my talent

Whites bury tones in my headphones
Reference to the common trend of white people hiding behind headphones at concerts

Whirlwind MC and my flows are now cyclones
Long-lasting and powerful like whirlwinds and cyclones

Go on blow the earth up in the stars and
Even if the world explodes, my talent will live on

I tiptoe the constallations just like Starman
Light on my feet, able to travel through the stars like a superhero

But even as particles I built rhymes by molecules
Even at a microscopic level, I'm crafting rhymes with precision and care

Black holes all fallin to rebuild ya cells and folicles
My words have the power to rebuild anything, even the human body

My brain cells are jail cells where my thoughts dwell
My mind is a prison where my thoughts are trapped

amongst the smoke of a thousand L's
Amidst the smoke of many marijuana joints (abbreviated as L's)

I'm still increasin peace signs to wrap my piece in
I'm still spreading messages of peace despite my tough exterior

And I'll be keepin tissues for those that's weapin
Even amidst success, I remain compassionate and understanding towards those who are struggling

You win it all to lose it all, riches to the winners
Success isn't permanent and can be fleeting, even for the most successful

to the losers shells fall all in all
For the unsuccessful, everything falls apart

I'm breakin hearts and hidin traces, unitin the races
Impacting emotions while also bringing people together

and gaining mad speed from cop chases
Gaining momentum and adrenaline from being chased by law enforcement

This place is blowin up, this is just madness in a cup
Everything is falling apart, and what I've done is just a small part of the madness
