Like It Is

I only tell it like is I'm not a hyena I'm a lion with with pen Put in every measure I'm composing Even if they send Me to battle in the desert I stay frozen I only tell it like is I'm not a hyena I'm a lion with with pen Put in every measure I'm composing Even if they send Me to battle in the desert I stay frozen I'm doing this shit right here for more just than my peace of mind Keep in mind I tend to grown old Keep my soul And just redefine (redefine) Like Websters diction I'm on a mission I can from a place where I ain't have a single pot to piss in Chilling Sleeping trying to stay warm in kitchen Feeling Every eye on me like the stove was All because The strength found in me had to grow up Focused Yeah I was young in the jungle Tarzan state of mind growing tall like Mutumbo I hope y'all feel my vibe like it's biblical Mathematic counting every beat like it's ventricle Yogi since my birth date Daddy taught how to speak so I could reap in the work place I guess I get what I desire Stepping up to me is like a match to a fire Stepping up to me is like a drop to an ocean Potent I knew since day one that I would one day be explosive It was hard for me to breath yeah I was born asthmatic But presently I conquered that demon just like a savage I can see everything I want comes with baggage But what I need came from my inner being like its magic At my door Dodging all yah bullshit like a maddador Keep it real what I spit Is more than just a metaphor Every bar is lit you can break it down and inhale Lyrically devine let me free you from mental your hell I only tell it like is I'm not a hyena I'm a lion with with pen Put in every measure I'm composing Even if they send Me to battle in the desert I stay frozen I only tell it like is I'm not a hyena I'm a lion with with pen Put in every measure I'm composing Even if they send Me to battle in the desert I stay frozen I'm treating ever bar like it's fertilizer Solar sure to rise You're in disguise See I'm polarized Every kick is hard enough to tenderize Black foot is my native tribe Little bit of charokee Prepared for heat Eagal on my side If you dear to be Louder then a parakeet Deep within your memories Trapped inside your mind I'm gifted with the remedy Synphonies orchestrate your chemistry Frequencies working with your DNA 808's bumping like a tweaker trying to fade away What's real My daddy had to hussle for bread Sleeping in a garage while you tucked inside your bed Went from the eviction to the shelter Never let addiction form while others fell to pressure Papa kept it two before the I Destined for a higher sight Melonated tint because we grew up in the fire fight Living in the belly of the beast He always kept me creased So the images they painted could never take hold of me I was young but a soldier Spirit pressure will fold yah Tempted with the darkness but gifted me with the holster I'm from the hood like the reaper with a scythe 716 guess I'm frozen with the ice Made it out the labyrinth flying like a kite And I never let the pain of being poor sully my sight
