Orpheus

Lyrics

[Intro] Orpheus, let's have a song [Chorus] Block norm, we form, we fight Not knowing who wrong, who right But reason don't bond with might Still squeezing, love to palm the sight Still breathing 'cause my armor tight Still grieving, another psalm to write One day, they gon' get me, but one day ain't tonight One day, they gon' get me, but one day ain't tonight One day, they gon' get me, but one day ain't tonight One day ain't tonight [Verse 1] For many moons, too goon to take advice The way I was moving, knew I'd soon take a life Fighting knaves, no righteous days, just sacred nights The stakes is high, let a couple eighths fly, then raise the price Devastation laced in my presentation Pack pound, won't back down whatever facing Judging from my cover, each chapter's a revelation Might seem dusty, but, team, trust me, this celebration Now I shine, but in times paler from the failure They tried things, but Ka seams rarer, I'm a tailor Through swims mudded, find a landlubber who the sailor See, I'm sick, never boarded, only courted like a jailor Grab five hundred on my ave, can't be semi G This tainted math ain't a class at MIT On my DÄ«n, supreme beings, in no man I plea Potent topic spoke in pocket on the M-I-C (Spoke in pocket on the M-I-C, what?) [Verse 2] As far as competitors, there never was Hyperdrive since I survived Beretta slugs Knowledge lasts from polished craft, no better love Bonafide, the beef only hide in a leather glove Dumb brash, was runnin' with the guns unmasked Talk shit and get cops, we lick shots for tongue lash As quiet as it's kept, the lines are select You call for raw, I'm supplyin' a connect From damned, became a man they admire and respect Topspin, once popped in, won't require an eject So much killing, even when building, you brung a tool Mentally jogging my memory is the only way I run a jewel My sense is true as principle, I could run a school From impoverished home, now I got it sewn, I spun a spool Tumultuous cope with shit fitting with con rap In this landscape, handshake is a contract If that's broken, blacks back, MACs smoking Only herbs lobby for third party, that's facts spoken (Facts spoken) (That's facts spoken) [Verse 3] They hold a grudge for my melanin On the strength of my dubs, I get love as a skeleton My crust wasn't upper, so a sucker, I never been The good said it, I'm hood medic, rushin' you medicine I'm addressing the order about the times I pestle and mortar A bunch of men jumping in, no testing the water To raise a quarter, played the corner, no better rook Yes, fella, was bestseller before I read a book When heard, emotions is stirred, 'cause was never shook Had to wait, didn't marinate, let it cook all seasons More war, more grievings Taught a chef impression that'll question your allegiance Can you rep it if it's separate from your credence? Come relax with the god 'stead of flexin' with the heathens [Chorus] Block norm, we form, we fight Not knowing who wrong, who right But reason don't bond with might Still squeezing, love to palm the sight Still breathing 'cause my armor tight Still grieving, another psalm to write One day, they gon' get me, but one day ain't tonight One day, they gon' get me, but one day ain't tonight One day, they gon' get me, but one day ain't tonight One day ain't tonight One day ain't tonight [Outro] Nah Ain't tonight One day ain't tonight I'm Orpheus
