LYRICS: Every release is urgent, I'm a be determined To carry my cross with heavier wood than any beast of burden 'Cause I'm that beast for certain 'Cause when the fattest lady sings, I'm rap to praise the king, y'know that season's curtains For any demons lurking pushing you to suicide & deep perversion More deceived than Eve when she believed the serpent To see these addicts on these streets' disturbing So I write to beats determined to keep pre-teens out of the reach of vermin I got these cretins nervous, show no relief on purpose These bars are presidential, they need the secret service 'Cause they represent the governing body of Christ Take you from sin nature to loving a Godlier life Not at all surprising My lyrics got so much bite, they tear your ear right off, to the point I call 'em Tyson Sublime spitter, came alive in the winter Fight demons with deep growls than Tatiana from 'Jinjer' Or Corey from 'Slipknot', allegory is Hip-Hop Like 'Royce' lyrics that's tip-top, not your story then kick rocks Do it in seconds, like Formula 1, with pit stops Leave devils without a cause, I take out all 'Kid Rocks' Ain't no rapper this hot while serving a big God Who's the undisputed king like Mike Jack' when he did pop Uunnggghhh....'Quest the one to go against, I think not Your timing is all off, like not setting your wristwatch "Baby boy", you worse than Tyrese trying to go against Ving Rhames You "Chet Holmgren" rappers getting fractured by "King James" And I ain't talking player 23 and 6 I'm talking 'bout book of Isaiah 23, that's it Where there was "Tyre", not the one for your ride But that city in Lebanon brought down by your pride Before God resurrected it, with his grace, he perfected it You act like the Shepherd, I'm addressing it Blaspheme with raps, yeah that stat won't happen I'm more energized than Red Bull, racing 'round tracks like Max Verstappen

LYRICS: I got the game in a chokehold, I stifled it, in a dog fight with it like Michael Vick With discipleship and my life is this, to turn away from everything that a psycho is Not Jeffery Dahmer, I'm resisting urges, I'm a kill my own flesh to fulfill my purpose I'm still a known threat with my skills with verses, where I built my own rep for his will with service For the most high God, take it to the Westside like I'm "Flygod" To the east my brother when I rhyme hard save a soul before they end up in a pinebox Uhhh, no Corvette when I ROC(K), with fiery vision like I'm "Cyclops" I'm entirely different in the nightspots, 'cause I'm a fiery Christian with a mic drop Yeah, I represent the Christ who walked on water, I'm excellent 'cause God is great He made wine before it was the water and healed the sick into a conscious state I represent the Christ who took nails in his hand for every single time that I failed as a man But I'm touched by his word like Braille for a chance at a love that occurred when the savior advanced To the right hand of the father after "Resurrection" like its "Common's" second album In a race war, just know the outcome, gospel like Martin while armed like Malcolm Like "Hogmob", I'm 'saved not soft', so leave those guns bars for those battle raps Short sighted like bad cataracts, targeting the 'Meek' going 'Back To Back' Yeah, I'm attacking the rappin' to represent the isle of Manhattan to Staten Queens, BX with the same passion, Brooklyn to the West Coast, What's Brackin'? Just know that I'm coming in reppin' with the blast of a gun, I'm a weapon At the All Star Game, I'm Larry Bird, one that's a legend, asking competition who's coming in second? 'Cause the first shall be last and the last shall be first, turn it "upside down" with my passionate verse "Stranger Things" have occurred when I'm backed by the word Change your life for a path that's preferred for this, that and a third Is a rap so absurd, if it ain't based on the triune God I'm saved with When I "Busta Rhyme" towards Satan, know I rhyme too hard, I'm "Dangerous"

You talk crazy records, but I know the shepherd so I'm killing you Without any facade, but with the word of the God to keep it real with you Your whole mantra is fake, for goodness sake, how do we deal with you I gotta put you down so don't come around, my spirit ain't feeling you Yo, I'm targeting you 'cause you're targeting me Because I'm darker than you, it's death you market to me Be as hard as can be to a sharper degree And black kids are born expecting that the father will leave But I'm artist that's free with a cathartic relief For souls in need of rest, that's regardless of creed Color or race, my faith's red carpet indeed Where Elohim's seen on the cross pardoning me And pardoning you, and that is regardless of eve She should've the left the fruit on the tree alone, now my heritage is sown Sinful nature, I've inherited my own It's why I'm imperative with poems that inherited the throne Not King Of New York that's full of "dracos" But God's paradise putting to shame Turks and Caicos I'm the one that hurts your label 'cause your work is fable I'm the one to turn the tables 'cause I work to change you! You talk crazy records, but I know the shepherd so I'm killing you Without any facade, but with the word of the God to keep it real with you Your whole mantra is fake, for goodness sake, how do we deal with you I gotta put you down so don't come around, my spirit ain't feeling you

Yeah I'm back, I just wanted to rap, when it comes to be beat, I'm undaunted with that I'm running through any thesaurus in fact, as long as the words don't conform with the trap More contentious than "Kyrie" post game interviews about what he tweets When I pour intention that's lively, to aim a sinner's view towards a God he needs I'm lynchin' competition like my name's Marshawn, this is straight up "Beastmode" It's video game numbers when I write with the thunder, I'm God's chief cheat code When it comes to Jesus, I'm straight "Foo Fighter", there goes my hero You think I'm crazy about the God who saved me, that's confirmed by "Cee-lo" My music more visual than "Vevo", serving God's people without an ego Cause when an innocent man dies on the cross for your sins, yo, there is no equal These rappers swear they gonna Pop like 80's music from "A Flock Of Seagulls" But next to me, I got your record going backwards like that rock that's "evil" Y'all swear y'all "Beanie Sigel", but y'all ain't really built like that 'Cause when you're hit with the RICO, Those beans you'll spill on your mans 'Cause you were living through 'The Wire" like Mr. West & every "Power" episode Could've known the Messiah not living in the flesh, but now we'll never know 'Cause the minute you thought you were free, you were shot for being a snitch Thank God Jesus walking with me, and I never got that itch To be the gangsta on block, even when I was dead broke Now I'm teaching kids to follow goals so they don't end up as a dead folk I know you rappers got a record to got at my story, but today, gotta switch plans 'Cause I got you rappers apologetic like "NORE" after "YE did "Drink Champs" Biblically. I got a 'think tank', worth more than "Elon's" big bank God theory bigger than the "Big Bang" on why I'm nice and y'all big mad.

Ever since I got saved. no way I ever put this music down I'm known to smack these beats around like an abusive spouse Keep "Alice in Chains" with "No Excuses" now My "New Edition" got these rappers screaming "Cool It Now" But I can't 'cause my rep is raw Two lines before these, I used an R&B & heavy metal group as metaphors A pure example of my repertoire and what I rep the shepherd on That got these demons triggered more than weapons drawn I cause hysteria that ain't a "Def Leppard" song Got you on "needles & pins" like "Deftones'" record on Those last bars, you didn't get, it's cool, I'm concrete I'm showing I'm a metalhead with rapper tools on "Nas" beats While still being Brooklyn like Marcy or Canarsie My skill is freely cooking like "MJ" vs. Barkley My wordplay's a weapon, A sensei with an art piece I'm back to my roots, Kuta Kente in a heartbeat The Underground King that's the preacher side of a "Bun B" Snappin' on drum beats so trust meEven if you prayed to just make it like "Hammer", you couldn't touch me I'm putting y'all to sleep like "Steph" after a clutch three Watch me, I'm the one they warned you about Who's 'bout the bible and quick to tell what the author's about Who gave his life for every single son and daughter en route To damnation 'cause they're always falling short or his clout et, you're trying to "Walk on water" except "Shady" and Beyonce Can't do what "God Did", this ain't Jay-Z 'cause my God saves And if you don't know him personally, you are not safe And if the truth offends, I got heads tighter than box braids I've been sticking to "God's Plan" but I'm not "Drake" While "Outlawz" depend on more "Hail Mary's" than "'Pac' made Stick to the surface level, might as well be scotch tape My actions speak louder than "Stephen A" with a "hot take" For God's sake, I will blaspheme not God's spirit will pierce your flesh, it's a vaccine shot "The Legion Of Doom" ain't got the rep this tag team got Me & Elohim got rehab for every crack fiend block

CHORUS: Yeah you know I'm really ice cold Yeah, yeah you really know, yeah you really know [6X] I ain't no joke, I got that Eric B. & Rakim type of focus Got God's back, set you free from that sin life that's hopeless My rich flex ain't big checks, I've been blessed I got a thing for the Christ who saved me from distress Kinda like that House Of Dragon's got a passion for incest Depravity lead by power trips for a kingdom that's really powerless 'Cause God's Kingdom is where the power is, I serve him without cowardice I'm clay shaped by what the Potter is, I ain't rockin' with Harry Potter ish But when it came to certain idolatry, had a hard time trying to conquer it Wasn't recognized as God's child, might as well have been anonymous Synonymous with certain sin, didn't always admonish it 'Til I hit rock bottom and was reminded of God's promises From the jaws of defeat 'cause I broke his laws every week To being saved by his grace, now I rap 'cause I'm embraced by this faith That I should've died on the cross and should've been denied by the Lord, But I'm alive & I'm sure Jesus paid the penalty for me 'cause he gave his very life for the cost. CHORUS: Yeah you know I'm really ice cold Yeah, yeah you really know, yeah you really know [4X]

I grab the microphone & turn into a Concorde jet Travel 'round the whole twice for an encore yet Discipling all nations while I'm on tour blessed Revival be salvation for this outpour, yes! Never southpaw left, yeah I'm always on the right for downpour, yep Yeah my reign(rain) is always tight with the crown more or less I astound, flawless No diamond in the rough tighter round corsets When I'm rhyming with a touch putting down short breaths You're a hooptie, I'm a muscle car corvette And you'll see, I'm a hustle hard, pour sweat And tears to what I'm doing, struggle bars? No threat Ain't no question what I'm doing is different, and flows that I've mentioned not suit for religion I'm bringing intention and truth as a Christian, the love of God's friendship and proof that he's risen Yeah, do the math, in fact my God's worth more than anything that strapped in bands And if you gave him half a chance, you'll see his death for your sins wasn't happenstance And nah, can't afford to rap for man, especially when they're fickle with these rappers man For Yah, I'm on a mission dispatching plans Jidenna type 'cause I'm classic man It's the new Rappers Delight, no Sugar Hill Gang with my slang though I am Legend Kill it like Will Smith, I am present And straight to raise the great I AM's presence In your life, the living sacrifice, it's why I'm killing mics and existing right I ain't toying with y'all, this ain't fisher price, I'm T.I.P. showing how to live your life

I'm still empowered, with God, I'm no coward when ripping down secular stages Within the hour, I gotta devour when spittin' now, rep is outrageous Flip through your browser, I stand as a tower that's bringing down sets with amazement You never doubted the man of the hour, a Christian that fresh out the basement I've been explaining why God is amazing enough, worthy of all of your praise & trust Keep you from being taken, when bullets were spraying and you was just playing a thug With someone out there that's aiming a snub, if you caught two to the face, it's a dub Maybe he saved you from HIV, HNIC wasn't player enough I know some kids who wanna rap to say they got hoes Next thing you know, they're shot in cars or in a Roscoe's Or facing fed time trying to get mine, these are not goals Got stranger music more than Tech Nine, wreak with God flows That speak of sovereign Lord who died for us, 'cause that's what God chose Instead of your boys acting funny then line you up, yo! these are not bros Before you turn the age of 21, you get shot cold And R.I.P.'s now next to your name, ask Triple X & Pop Smoke Well, I wish I could ask 'em, but hopefully they're in the afterlife That's why urge you to chase after Christ, 'cause pop culture got our kids bastardized When you don't know the father, your pops is the kid on the 'Gram with the money phone Guns on the counter and you it's so funny though, Feds are now watching 'cause you in the dummy zone Yeah you were out here living fast, now you stuck behind prison glass Thinking I should've bumped 'Quest in the ride, when he was spittin' those Christian raps But God still wants to know you, anything else you oughta fight He was just wanted to bring a radical interruption to your life
12.
Legendary styles like "Dapper Dan" when I'm snappin', do the math "Who will save your soul" when I drop this "Jewel", I'm a pastor in his bag You gotta understand the urgency this rapper has to have When I wake up to these words to see another rapper passed R.I.P. Takeoff, victim of gun usage Happens so often, I'm this close to numb to it Seeing brothers young, clueless, always targets of a shootin' by the ruthless Always gotta watch our movements, what are we doing? It's stupid, I thought that we got us, 'cause crooked cops we do not trust It's tough when it's one of our own who shot us We've been endangered species that need to unify That's why you'll never mistreat all creeds with Jewish ties Anti-semitic? You'll be cancelled, business faded Courtside fans letting Kyrie know that they won't tolerate it Whether you didn't know better or did it on purpose That's why black lives can't only matter at a funeral service But wait, sports and social media were fascinated With watching Kyrie get bucked & emasculated While Amazon & Jeff Bezos got off scotch free "Blame that movie on the ballplayer, not me!!!" Yeah suspend him, that's the way this goes We'll keep the movie on the platform with its racist tropes While 14 year old Jerry Jones with racists all around him Is pictured in photo & not forced to denounce it Anyway, yeah, lemme get up off my soapbox Unless you're sending roadblocks where I can't promote God I'm gliding over tracks like a new pair of skates In Baltimore I got 'em Raving (Raven) like I'm "New Era 8" In Buffalo, I'm Josh Allen throwing lasers you meant to catch like Stefon Diggs I am a talent for the savior, you're not a match, you bend to him These devils "Rome Streetz" with their 'Hearts Froze' So I'm "Tyson Beckford" when I model God's heart though
13.
I can't afford to be distracted by Twitter followers, Instagram likes Mentions on Tik Tok, a rip off if I don't give that man Christ If I'm only focused on the numbers while the hopeless suffer I will miss my witness, that's this kid that's hanging by a rope this summer Posted everyday 'bout Jesus, known for awesome drumming Then his suicide's like hit & runs, we never saw it coming 'Cause social media got you thinking everything is fine Now you search his posts for clues, now everything's a sign This is where he cried for help, this was selfish, wasn't he saved?But we Christians lie to ourselves 'cause we're selfish trying to be brave Unaware we're in deserts for "40 days & 40 nights" No oasis for self love, we're convinced we oughta die We're confused to why a "Twitch" would lose his life 'Cause he was dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight that led to suicide Those demons held too tight To our self esteem & mental health, that's you and I 'Cause really....RIGHT NOW I'M AS SICK AS A DOG BUT REALLY DOPE WILL BE THIS RHYME THAT I'VE WRITTEN FOR Y'ALL I GOT THE OVERZEALOUS, OVERJOYED AND BITTER INVOLVED IN MY MIND, BUT WHEN I RHYME, I GOT NO QUITTER RESOLVE EVEN THOUGH MY HEAD IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE WITH EVERY DOUBT AND FEAR IN MIND ON ROUTE TO ERODE ALL OF MY POSITIVE THOUGHTS AND ALL MANNER OF THINKING THAT'S THERE'S A WAY OUT, MY HOPE PLANS TO BE SHRINKING GOING FROM GINORMOUS TO MINISCULE DOOM AND GLOOM'S IN PORTIONS' WHAT I'M GIVING YOU I FEEL SO ASHAMED, DESERVE THE RIDICULE I HEAR THE DEVIL IN MY EAR, "I'M TRYING TO GET RID OF YOU" THAT'S A LOT OF US THAT'S CAUGHT IN HELL TOO CLOSE TO THE EDGE SO THEY OFF THEMSELVES I RESIST THAT DAY WHEN I'VE CAUGHT THAT SPELL KNOWING THERE'S THE HOPE, EVEN WHEN I HADN'T FOUGHT THAT WELL EXCUSE ME FOR WRITING THIS BEATS LIKE THIS MAKE THE PERFECT PSYCHIATRIST WHEN IT'S TIME TO BEAR MY SOUL ABOUT BEING SCARED TO DEATH JUST TO SHARE MY GOALS I NEED A DEEPER FAITH THAT PRAYER UNFOLDS OR ELSE I'M LIVING JUST TO LIVE EVERY YEAR, THAT'S OLD STUCK BETWEEN A ROCK AND THIS HARD PLACE THE SUBJECT OF THIS DIARY I'M CHANNELLING LIKE "SCARFACE"
14.
I'm beyond Bradley Cooper's version of limitless With lyricism devoid of fake wholeness and gimmicks kid They try to discredit God, droppin' science like physicists But to speak of his healing power, I'm even more spirited, it's the gospel I'm gifted with So you see what a gift it is, sinful nature? We're sick with it so a savior was picked to fit Our behavior then hit & stripped Put in danger they didn't acquit, no favor, they hit him with whips Dead, naked positioned to quit, rose later then flipping the script Now this Christian's equipped no matter what mission it is Spittin' this sick? the net I cast, the bigger the fish When I witness to kids Who ain't living to thrive, they're just existing to live Stacking chips in the crib for something to stick in the fridge Soon they'll move bricks for the flip, yeah dude it is what it is It's that classic Scarface 'cause you've been tricked with the fix Then I show you the gospel to cause your decision to quit And you walk away from that street life, running from cops in plain clothes You fought for days with that beef right? Don't be that John or Jane Doe You ain't pushing, don't take that pill the satisfaction really ain't that real You could be high as a flight and still be depressed and stressed that your man's got killed I'm making God famous not strangers Using social media to make you swear you're not favored. Comparison be the thief of joy so you're knocking your neighbor I pray my verses make your block your behavior and switch to God who's the savior
15.
"A Radical Interruption" is comin' That's my new album, it's 'bout time, it's summoned Been the rage like New York legit accepting ganja And highly anticipated like Victor Wembenyama Yeah, if you know you know I turn that Pusha (pusher) to a T towards the holy ghost Matthew 28:19 until he slows his role I'm the example when I scheme the rhyme that broke his yokes I carry weight as the model, never bulimic, no doubt Back to dominate like the "Redeem Team" is about I'm a genius with clout as been seen by the scouts While you ain't ready to coach, you only scream from the couch Be obscenely a grouch, to Elohim, kneel and bow Like Nefertiti was crowned because I'm keenly allowed As strategic with crowds & I'm scenic with routes With beliefs that devout, Y'know Queens in the house I rep Brooklyn, but I grew up on "Mobb Deep" I took "Nas's" side when it came to that "'Pac" beef And Queen's Christian hip-hop, "C.H.R.I.S." is excelling" Richie Righteous"? A legend & watch for that boy "Sehven" So salute to those past and future Queens' legend Mean sessions' in my sights like triple beam weapons Keep guessin' I shine bright, my lyrics be second To none, I'm definitely the one you should esteem brethren Run the streets like "Supreme Team" sections Elohim fiend blessing every teen seen stressing I'm unorthodox reaching the black, white, Puerto rock I'm a scorch the block, 'Quest ain't sorta hot I'm on fire like "Daenerys" getting burned by her own dragon Don't speak on my flow passion, you rappers I'm toe tagging Talking with no action, walking with no backing Conforming to thought patterns absorbing your programming" Basic instructions before leaving earth" Is to be a "Genius" as a "Killah Priest" to preach his word!
