Die Honest
By Iain Robinson
My provoking got you open...provoking...pro king...pro...got them hoping / i’m just joking / watch you smoking? / it’s just a token...
My provoking got you open / see they choking while they’re
quoting / all these noose lines / made for loose minds / hang ‘em low / pants sagging sky rise / project poetry / city scenery / stepping street level / skip the sewer stream / posse reign supreme / meet up on the scene / keep the shadow clean when we spot light / rock a spot right / exit stage left / kick a hole speaker / hold a jam / def / keep your game tight / battle big boots / kick in shell toe / three stripe type / what the swish know / what the bold label / with no gold cable / we still wired right / for the shark bite / shock a sucker fish in the lime light / see a sucker slip / while we slap grip / let the finger click / middle digit lift / when they screw lip / with they’re hand sign and they’re gang mind / we Solo Pro homie, what kind? / we here long time / going strong fine / walk a fine line / let the
line rhyme / see the sweat shine / coz he’s on time / tryna social climb / off the grape vine / California dream / like he Hollywood / but he never move when he never should / see the strategy be longevity / writ in history / legendarily...place...your bets...
See those twin towers? They’re but ghosts / coz they’re here in spirit while we coast / “it had to happen” / so said every captain / staring up from those sinking boats / going deep now / gotta wonder how / to hold a heavy chain while he hold a crown / something gotta give in our lifetime / no more fucking paying for a lifeline / put a mask on just to save mine / had to block my ears or I’ll go blind / just another prick upon your pinterest / while my every mountain’s freaking Everest...
Tryna realize no lies / tryna drop that disguise... Stick to the remix homie, don’t play...
