Coded Language

[Intro] Parlez-vous manipulation? Yeah, I speak that shit fluently Every word's a bullet, every phrase a strategy [Verse 1] Code-switching like a mercenary in these streets One tongue for the suits, another for the beats Learned to flip my tongue before I learned to write Mom said "speak proper" but the streets taught me how to fight Through syllables, invisible, switching dialects at will Every conversation's chess, yeah, I'm going for the kill [Chorus] Identity confirmed, but which one do you see? The version that you want, or the monster that's in me? Transmission received, but the message is corrupt Playing both sides of the fence while you're all getting fucked [Verse 2] Sophie thought she knew me, caught up in my web of words Played her like a symphony 'til everything got blurred Underground battles taught me how to twist the blade Every line I spit's a trap that's carefully made Montreal streets whisper stories of my games Different masks for different crowds, call me king of shame [Bridge] Watch me flex between the languages Verbal acrobat, linguistic damage You can't pin me down, I'm too elusive Every word I speak is fuckin' abusive [Chorus] Identity confirmed, but which one do you see? The version that you want, or the monster that's in me? Transmission received, but the message is corrupt Playing both sides of the fence while you're all getting fucked [Outro] Je suis tout ce que tu crains Everything you fear wrapped in a pretty refrain Game over, transmission complete Another identity deleted, delete, delete
