Lyrics

[Verse 1] The apocalypse been in effect, go get a late pass It seems I overslept my chariot Snoozing on the other side of time Where six was nine, on purple pine Swinging low, let me ride, with my engines fried Errybody loves sunshine I'm in the shade of forest, city rat And I'm turning eight shades blacker, he-he laughter Born free got no master Franklin sack, greener pasture Lush acres, new chapter Last heard serving rappers farm to table Old school, Whole Foods, gotta read the label We grown dude, stone food, ginger beer and Maker's Lemon peel pull over pebble ice All I see are blinking lights Where pipedream off the wicked life Reflecting elder sage advice, shake the dice Let's get this money, Black Ju-ju powder inside his gunny sack Where he goin' there ain't no coming back [Hook] More brilliant than the sun (more brilliant than the) x8 [Verse 2] You fuckin' with the indigo, body electric Wholly unimpressed by your social media metrics Brick and mortar rhyme for distorted time Offline my core thrives, I'm pulling from where the source lies Properly zoinked, there's not a stir in this black sky I'm fire baptizin' my ball-point Flash fry the raw leaf Creepy cracker stalking unarmed neighbours Where's your paper? Slave code still in effect Make no mistake, hate runs so deep, conscious mind can't trace it Dangerous, anxious, anger in the nation, same shit Blame, what you think I'm goin' insane, bitch My language ain't enough, it's getting harder to relay this Engulf 'em in the flame, I'm just conveying my rage Been the truth for young gods, earning they first earth scars We learn hard [Hook] More brilliant than the sun (more brilliant than the) x8 [Verse 3] I am not a threat, at least not in the manner you'd expect I'm rocking talismans to save me from the hex Hearing what you saying, but I'm reading subtext Weighing if I should check you, but I probably held it back Dippin' out in mid sentence If you gotta ask, you'll never know Break it down fast, spit it back slow Historical lenses of our not so distant past inform my flow Standing in the here and now, but hey, tomorrow never knows I'm a OG with Kofi They know not what they do, stay away from that clone beef Chrome teeth, post everything, wa-da-da-dang When they said he came, clouds of smoke, fire and noise Open doors, triggered by minor chords Levitating from spinning marble floors Neither created nor destroyed, Lord [Hook] More brilliant than the sun (more brilliant than the) x8
