lyrics

Let's Battle -

Verse 1 (Mr. Lif)

So I ran into this chump around the end of the month
He said, "you ain't nice on the mic brother"
He started to front
So I looked at him sideways
Like 5 ways
His soul disintegrated from the tone of my eye gaze
He tried to materialize some fabricated
Excuse that I had to use to lacerate him
Exacerbating this situation
Some of his supporters teleported from their place of occupation
These dudes came through real blind to co-sign
That's when I dusted off this very old rhyme

"You don't / even / wanna / test a"

Rhyme manifester
Against the
Court jester

Boy I made a mess of this shit like Odysseus
When he returns home
My arrows was flown

Suitors clutch computers but their keyboards jam
That when I upgrade my invade with more
RAM

My system glisten
Listen
Tape hissin'
Analog fog
The bodies are still missin'

How would I describe my vision?
Nuclear fission
Somewhere between what's never been
And what's living

Verse 2 (Akrobatik)

I came up on these lame rappers rocking fake jewelry
Rolling deep like the Baseball Furys or a jury
This dirty dozen wasn’t friendly like cousins
Nah - they was buzzing ‘bout some shit that they would soon wish that they wasn’t
Talking ‘bout Ak’s washed up
They must’ve never heard Built To Last - they was probably locked up
For emcee impersonation
I let the leader run his little empty interpretation
I said a rhyme that made his head explode
My girl got it all recorded for my next podcast episode
So amazing how they all became introverts
Yo Lif - let me show you how I put them in the dirt
Brothers just had to test pedigree
I took them out seven at once, like The R in my melody
I let a roar that sent a chill up their backs
Then spit some heat towards the earth, and yo they fell through the crack
