Merkules Anxious (feat. Jay Es, Geoff English & Blazeon3)
Yo, every city is my hometown
Got your pity clickin' on my profile
Difference is I'm livin' what I wrote down
Blue sky shining like I'm living on the coast now
Paid, you would think I write for Kendrick on the lowdown
That's how it goes now, I ain't complainin'
Still got a few problems left but I ain't tryin' to face 'em
Had a dream that I was layin' down right on the pavement
And when I woke up, I realized that I'm in the matrix
So I just shut up and I just watch it from afar, y'all hatin'
Do this while you lookin' for a job on Craigslist
Give me that glitter and I turn it into gold
These are tools that I've acquired during working in the cold
You came here for Merk, but the person here was Cole
You get the real me like the curtains weren't closed
So f..ck it all, it's the aftershock
Yeah, you were on the block but you weren't at the block
New money, new shows, every city is my home now
But still I do it for my hometown
Third eye open, I can see it when it goes down
Oh wow, now they acting like they know how
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
And I'll never ever sell my soul, no, no, no, no, no
I've been doing this on my own far too long
Told them they would never break me down
I can see it in the faces now, yeah, they're anxious for me
Yeah, they anxious for me, yeah, yeah
I am an Asian guy, tea and a plate of rice
Half naked in mother nature
My swag like a native tribe
Warrior, war blades, [?]
Warlord of this whole world
Face covered in war paint
Cops out here with the power they hunger for
They like: "Boy, when you get outta school I'm comin' for you"
Target on my back like I'm super marketable
And it's all in my head swimming around like sharks in a pool
For all these suckers out here that's reppin' the wrong side
Fake ass rappers are reppin' the wrong guy
Yeah, you get hoes, but they only online
And, yeah, you played shows but nobody cosigns
I feel like nobody can save you, you're too far gone
Only person who played you is in your songs
You know you wasn't really built for this 'cause
When it comes to music, I kill you for just my shot
New money, new shows, every city is my home now
But still I do it for my hometown
Third eye open, I can see it when it goes down
Oh wow, now they acting like they know how
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
And I'll never ever sell my soul, no, no, no, no, no
I've been doing this on my own far too long
Told them they would never break me down
I can see it in the faces now, yeah, they're anxious for me
Yeah, they anxious for me, yeah, yeah
Came out little different than y'all
I roll the dice on my life, but I'm quick on the draw
I try to gamble with this music while correcting my flaws
They call me stupid 'cause I do it and it's pissin' them off
But I made it from the bottom to the middle
And I'm still climbin'
They hated from the beginning, but I'm still rhymin'
And I'mma play my position until they try and sign me
And y'all are victims til my name be where that dotted line be
Try and find me, I'll be on a new wave
And this is doomsday, motherfucker, new age
My team comin', yo, run and stay out the cruise way
And y'all can do this for fun, we do this till due's paid
This what I wanted all my goddamn life, though
And y'all are trippin' for thinking you even might blow
I started out moving packs by the light pole
Now I'm travelling and I'm rapping, achieving life goals
New money, new shows, every city is my home now
But still I do it for my hometown
Third eye open, I can see it when it goes down
Oh wow, now they acting like they know how
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
And I'll never ever sell my soul, no, no, no, no, no
I've been doing this on my own far too long
Told them they would never break me down
I can see it in the faces now, yeah, they're anxious for me
Yeah, they anxious for me, yeah, yeah
The crow calls, my whole crew, they bangarang
I'm switching lanes, I'm hitting gears, I'm [?]
The Bruce Banner of loose banter, a loose cannon
I do damage then bang cabbage you all famished
To live lavish your soul sold to who's baddest
The drug raps, the word crack, the new addict
The dude's attic is full of nudes and new [?]
Lie, lie, follow me, yo
I got a pocket full of change, homie
And I don't need your two cents
Your rent's due, your hype's gone
Your fuse bent, I'm the pipe bomb
Despite wrong, your crew sent
Right to your doorstep with a Morgrip pair of forceps
Lobotomize the cortex
I'm the hero of the [?]
Lord of The Flies flow
You can try to take my blood, the last boys died though
New money, new shows, every city is my home now
But still I do it for my hometown
Third eye open, I can see it when it goes down
Oh wow, now they acting like they know how
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
They know I got what they need
I make 'em fall to their knees
And I'll never ever sell my soul, no, no, no, no, no
I've been doing this on my own far too long
Told them they would never break me down
I can see it in the faces now, yeah, they're anxious for me
Yeah, they anxious for me, yeah, yeah
