Versis Thesis
Trying to build upon what I know I got naturally
Frowned upon the title Rapper, now I claim it happily
Cause Hip-Hop's a way of living
Rap is the verb that's utilized to describe the way I choose to spill it
The truth is always written
Let your light shine bright, get lifted
Back in elementary, they said I was gifted
Crenshaw, 100 something, bed in the living room
Made a little dough pushing hair with a broom at the barbershop
I recall cold nights at the bustop
Me & moms, late night, Inglewood to The O.C
She was trying to get a degree studying oral hygiene
Let your light shine bright, get lifted
Real life's improve, not scripted
Some scenes are always vivid, think back, rewind, relive it
Reason for why we're living - a mission, maybe - is it?
Who knows, reasons for dying - too many - no denying
Let your life shine bright get lifted
This next one's for the misfit that really wasn't with it
When the "in - thing" suddenly shifted
Don't feel like social strangers, losers, or lone rangers
It's the gift & the curse that you had from the birth
Don't change it
Yo, it's a flood & i'ma stop it up
Drain to the rain, send it here & I'ma sop it up
Spitting weak flows on the floor & I'ma mop 'em up
No telling, so compelling when on the microphone & I'm zoning
Ey, yo - I might erupt
