Yall should know from the gate
win or lose
last we do is procrastinate
we get to it
stick-to-it-iveness
is the reason we able to still do it
many in the past can still do it
but useless
far away, lead astray from the rubric
black boy from queens getting the dirt out ya ear
replace it with true shit
Q-Tip
born not of a tribe
but on a quest
with 5 or fever
5 leaders, 5 readers
5 eager to teach ya
5 guys no pizza
never divas
saying never say never
except for never never dope beats
always hold ya own
preaching from churches to tabernacles
from peach streets, to rotten apples
Robert Horry daggers to ya Adam's apple, yea
out of no where unexpected.
first thing I learned there is no transgressions
only if you get caught there's only transgressors
so learn to be aggressive
manifest the best shit
set the bar high and reach towards it
jump for it, don't wait for it
don't pray for it
pray for guidance
pray to be street wise as well as conscience
don't just kick knowledge pick it up
always grab life by the horns and live it up
give it up
I'm only here to elevate the dream chasers
and tell you keep your head up like neck braces
I wear mines' on my sleeve like BFF bracelets
I do it for graffiti property defacers
and the ones who hold toast like wine tasters
free mason type of flow the way i build
and grow in degrees, no Celsius
no church for the merciless
kill the rapper and the beat
2 double parked hearses
either that or bunk bed caskets
save the bullshit for them other suckers
never anti-muslim but going
Hard As a Motherfucker
They should call me saint manifesto
Cause I speak in parables
Born Sagittarius I'm working on my arrow throw
Eye on the sparrow,
Mind over matter
Pissed off
Cause I got in the bag
Like I don't got a bladder
I don't have a latter
I'm the first option
No second choice all offense
I keep my poise
Even when infected with the poison
I seek destroy percussion
Till they cease to bring they noise in
Take em to the point I
Live better or die
Quake to soil my oats
And leave em shaking like a fault line
Of course I'm the divorce meets plus minus force, ahh
Splitting atoms getting past the fog from the a bomb
Falling from the sky like an acorn
In a red hoodie like treyvon
Or all black, akon
I ain't air jordan but I ain't one to front on
You here cause lebron need somebody to dunk on
I gotta sell posters
Your the poser
In the portrait
I'm bringing down the house, foreclosure
You gon need more than 4 clovers
You gon need a heaven high ladder to go over the bar that I set in the game
No matching me
Hear the racket I'm producing your catastrophe
Any more blasphemy
Leading to some casualties
The stable been enabled
To live past the fables that was told to the youth
That's why the dreams sold on cables proven far from the truth
And the things we been promised been far over due.
So we gotta build our dreams from scratch at the stu
So i speed like a Nissan and run over beats then jolt
Leave em hanging with peace sign checking for the pulse
Hanging on for dear life to eighth note
Mindset on ASAP trynna get a peso
I'm built for it, y'all Legos
Nigga let's go
That boy J cold
Since a day old
Boy stay Professional
This is my processional
To the top of the world, I J ManifestO
