Lyrics:
Evident to me
This shit’s evident to me
This shit’s evident to me
Evident to me
This shit’s evident to me
This shit’s evident to me
Keep my old name out of your mouth
And keep your sights set clean
Keep that old trick out of your clout
And keep your fight on mean
Take that type set scene
And make that bite cut lean
You know what it is that I mean
You know I’m the bitch for the screen
Keep it in check for the team
Keep it in check for the team
Get that whack shit out of my sight
And keep your mind on track
Get your old lick back
But don’t be settling scores unless you wanted it more
Don’t be trivial
Mindset critical
Just stay clinical
Keep your criminals close
And just keep opening doors
Hungry for glory
Never a war
We were deep down in the trenches
Running 500 laps, push ups, bench press
Trumpets blaring, hair braided, wind whipping, loud and dangerous
Uniform pressed
(SNAKES AND TIGERS)
Stripes and scale, I was dryer
School yard fights like cancer
I asked you a question give me an answer
Do you think you can stand up straight and punch
Don’t bleed out too much
Don’t get knocked by lunch
Too many crabs in the pot
Even two is a lot
Keep your energy out of my thoughts
Free bleeding out of the box
I am razored
Sharp and shrewd like a laser
When my gloves come off
My hands feel hot and battered
Propagate the images
Tolerate the finishes
Come up through the villages
Screen it in the cinemas
File it through perimeters
Minimize the damages
Show me all the witnesses
Show me all the witnesses
Circulate the evidence
Speak of my benevolence
Always using violence
That’s how I got my confidence
Climbed into the world again
Getting back my sentience
Powerful and pertinent
Store it in the documents
Digital malevolence
Winding through the prevalence
Got me teasing decadence
Remind me of the relevance
Of all of my irreverence
That’s evident to me
This shit’s evident to me
This shit’s evident to me
