You are the masterpiece
You are the melody
You are the harmony
Every symphony
You are the resource
You are the gold rush
You are a Prince
I love us
To dream in color us
Was on a short bus
Handicapped life
Bussin with them lies tucked
Over the intercom
On scantron
It’s public schoolin for Jamarcus and dem Antwon’s
work of grand scale
Young Black Male
I am the masterpiece at moma that you can’t sell
Beyond the whitew gaze
I feel a slight craze
When I walk in rooms
Lighting up a dark cave
I grew up on toons
Looney
Plus dem arcades
I am Uncle Luke
World full a world Darth Vaders
Pop in the Maxell
Vernon maxwell
How I snap on the world
Cuz i rap well
For my set tripping
Nutty Block crippin
Piru loving
Reebok and white Tees
Blood type Oui
God like We
Black like me
All in the same gang
You are the masterpiece
You are the melody
You are the harmony
Every symphony
You are the resource
You are the gold rush
You are a Prince (family)
I love us
I know your panties wet but will this the pain stop
You prolly never dreamt of candy coated raindrops
Until you pulled up on a real one
Then ya heart stopped
That was soul for real baby
Fuck a heart throb
I’m down to rock her body as i turn this hottie out
I asked if I could then I ate the pussy out
Ebony Queen
You the worlds wet dream
Over sexualized
The prize of a true king
seems
As a jit sipping backwash
Staring at ya cat walk
thang swayed lovely
That’s when I fell in love with thee
Wanted to protect you
Always did respect you
Cuz You my fuckin back bone
So How can I neglect you
Sheba in the flesh
K I must confess
Had a school boy crush
On ya pretty princess
Went away to famu
Laywer
God approved
So I dedicate this bar
To a very special boo

I beg you pardon
The Faustian bargain
Has got me talkin this Hebrew jargon (Shalom)
Serenity prayers
enter my lair
Infinity here
So hear my dear
Alcohol and egos
Speaking to the ethos
To play chess with a
Scared to death negro
Buck breaking, coonism
can’t have it
I rather play the wall with self
A Black magic
Ochun to Haitian Vaudou
migration
Who knew
The ones invisible here were actually true blue
Blood of Christ
Original
Fucc ya life
Cancel who
I am the son of father
Father was a scholar
Ife
The genesis of Yoruba race
Holla
Ig thots and thoughts of a mortal
The flesh is weak
The soul is immortal
Rich old men are Destroying the world
Who taught you to hate yourself?
Good hair bad hair
Timeless kinks
The world is a mess, goddamn it stinks
You see progress in dem skirts
I see promise in the work
There’s more than meet the eye
When my pen go bezerk
It’s speaker’s crying
And preachers dying
The truth is here
But them
Is lying
Facedown on they falsehoods.
I was northwood
Next to Pine Ridge
Black white
All good
sike
never that
Race war home
Skinheads came for me
Andre Joneu hlcfLn
Came through for me
or I was fucked up
Then we link
Dropped a tape
It is non stop
(Back room studios Nigga)
We mightve been the first to drop a tape in the ville

Public Address

To measure pain
How they measure cain
To provoke the wind,
To revolt and sin
Of hoop dreams or five mics
The source of all light
Sons and daughters or
Still rappin , hoopin
Roll the dice
A way to make it out
The traps of a haunted house
Full of hidden ghost
Sneaky but overtly out
From dreaming of the nbat
To now signing nda’s
Young boy
Hope to never go broke again
You can die and win
But they the ones that gain
Play the role of men, you ain’t gotta die within
Old man for council, young man for war
May you live to old age mature
It’s a nigga factory, each sold separately
I tip toe heavenly and
Keep toast clothes next to me
To heat those devilish,
Kill those devilish, kill those devilish
Fucc a roc nation brunch
Like wow fakest bunch
Of smiles
Take a hunch
Mad veneers and pastel
Pretty Pink
Naked lunch
How everybody cheeks
How everybody freaks
We are living residual of slavery and the minimal these white folks can do
Is pretend I’m not invisible
it is visible
The lynching of my physical
Killin you killin you
AdopTed Nigga spirituals
Im back outside with a backpackers pride
That lyrical miracle rap
Rappers guide nah
The boy is nice
It’s cold as ice
I skate on tracks
I’m cold as ice
Where’s the Rico for dem kkk’s and racist crackaz
Theres plenty out in Georgia, panhandle Flawda
I been to Tallahassee go to Walmart it’s wacky
Twas a fight bout some khaki dickie suits
Man don’t @ me
I gotta get out!

Akin Yai
Old head on a freedom grind
Jit on demon time
Life currently
I say Nigga free your mind
Image and self esteem
Tell me what it all means
Black against empire, blood suckin vampire
Vicious cycle of the world but I can’t tire
Get off of TikTok and pick up a book
Chakras
Keep a balance cuz my energy field matters say I’m a real one, And I’m preaching the truth but
don’t let it go to ya head
So what are you?
I am Straight outta nubia
fam i’ve been studious
Dropped out them GHS halls
There’s no schoolin this
I taught myself Garvey
Proudly I can walk Godly
You ain’t gotta heart me
I love myself gladly
Flex weird
Ok fatherless sphere
I’m pinching myself make sure I’m still here
feel the power
Up for dumb hours
Some cower
Bow to the pressure
Them cowards
Aquarius age
Rage against the victor
Cuz now we (they) know
You a threat
No longer victim

From indigenous roots
We be the living proof/
Children of the Most High,
Thank GOD for giving truth/
Preachers in the synagogue of Satan
be speaking that hatred.
We trying to give you knowledge and wisdom, these barz sacred.
Prophets and Messengers hoping to help the rest of us.
Trying to live life by example
But shit be stressing us...
Drama, trauma, we deal with reaping our karma.
Now we forced to be still...pray and meditate, Dhali Llama
I promised Mama... I will never stop the movement
'cause I was told that if you got a goal then keep pursuing it
Doing it from your heart and your spirit and you'll succeed.
No matter what the obstacles you just gotta believe.
Politicking with politicians...the game vicious...
Freedom really come in the spirit but we don't wanna hear it.
Not to mention they focusing our intention on fetters and traps that's meant to keep the people from ascension.
Now fabricated vision replacin spiritual missions.
Don't caught up in this hell we call the 3rd Dimension.
They steal our power with Towers through 5G
but my soul is not for sell
You demons can't buy me
It's time to break away from the chains and get free!

Life,skies,write,times, I
Times I write skies life
They listen with they eyes
The pissing match of the oppression Olympics Go visit
America I feel it , I see it
FDA and Ados
And those that worship Adolf or okkk we in the muthafuckin playoffs
This high science, they want gossip
Stick to Akademiks for the latest hot topics
authenticity
No one cares
You live and die by your likes
And fuckin shares
Secret niggas hidden colors ,
I am neither, that ain’t for us
I live where the poorest are happy
You can’t @ me
With your struggle rap ,coke talk
You can’t dap me
I’m from an era where niggas will test you
And see if you are
What you attest to
They was short fused
Made outta test tube
Now live what you eat
Or you is fresh food
Cornbread greens candy yams special
Down south that’s soul
God bless you
Life,skies,write,times, I
Times I write skies life
They listen with they eyes
We was 2 dope boyz in a Pontiac
On tour overseas we was selling rap
Then the biz came between us
Now we solo acts
But i love my nigga and we did that
Be careful who you wife up
I seen vampires suck a Nigga life blood
Word to Christ bruh
Talented Mister D
hope that you get free
last convo was key to me writing you this
It’s like a diary
Ire of me
Feelin irie
Just unveiling layers I’m like Kyrie
With no apologies for they hypocrisies
Im just a rebel on the mic speaking prophecies
Mono genetic versus poly genetic
I am original man
So my aesthetic is
Closer to nature
We are the chosen
You can tell by all this fuckin hatin
