Got to be heard and fight for you to feel me

Hit these curves, and fight what you deal me

Speak truth and love, in spite what you live with

Hate what you can't, like your own face

The mic is my knife, the words are my blade

The aura of rulers, running blood in his veins

Former bully and Lord Thug to his pains

I'm running wild in a child, yeah

Care to be the puzzle peace, leaves to be shown

Sticking their heads in the ground hoping they can stay safe

Man child is in the building, yeah, oh
