My timeline's bout as convoluted as metal gear solid
Friends turn snakes with handshakes and deposits
There's a reason why I call each album a project
Because I do the proper research before talking about it
I was gone for a minute but I'm back
Wait, I'm just kidding I seriously hate sitting still
They ask how I keep the music going crazy?
While rappers stay salty like mr Fuji in the 80s
The quality got nothing to do with what they pay me
And I never cared much about wherever folks rate me
I heard a quote i live by a while ago

If you believe it when they love you, you gotta accept the lows
Doing what I was told till 14 years old
When I was the lookout while the older kids stole
Sneaking in the club through the back with no checks
Make you hold techs like referees in cold sweats
Like the old west, I'm staying patient my goals set
Livin Outside of the box just like Meryl's codec
Learned the lesson from the OG, who taught me the drums
He said travel the world but forget where you from
Gotta shout my believers, who protect us and keep us
Whether I drop every year or walk away like Kojima
Kazu my otacon - the man In the chair
Cooking beats while the people put they hands in the air
Max score in Famitsu, I went from translating every issue
To being recognized in akihabara
Working as if I will not see tomorrow
I laid the blueprint out for anybody to follow

Im an open book, prolly a novel, infinite jest
And really care less who spittin the best
Cause on a pie chart of keys to success
It's probably 5% talent and hustle is the rest
I say I'm lucky but truthfully I'm blessed
Many had opportunities and used em to flex
So Every one of methods is time worn and battle tested
So I stand on my own two like Rex did
Seconds ticking away on my Heads up display

I'm a foster parent I got less time to play
On a time attack like VR missions
When I be spittin
Ain't no words wasted, my focus is precision
Trust me, Even if I never touched green
You could never skip Ran like a metal gear cutscene
My rapping is Tactical espionage
So consider yourself blessed by the god
