• Verse 1
• Shadows rising, darkness brightening, lightning spiting, so don’t despite me, I’m still fighting, still writing and typing my rhymes, I just feel like already I’m out of time, trying to climb but crime rates are getting higher, I feel like I’m already getting pushed, ambushed and crushed from behind the bushes, I guess I’m gonna need crutches, what I try to touch is the clutches, all I feel is punches when everybody comes in, it all sums up, get ya guns out and make them stumble down the stairs and tell them nobody cares for them.

• That’s the kind of thing a dick would do but it’s true, I know it’s cruel but just face it, it's true. These kinds of people belong in a zoo, in the end they’ll come out with a chewed-up shoe, it just blew up so fast, this is from my point of view though, you may see it differently. All I did was give you a clue on what’s happening, this is all just brand new, not really, no, that’s a lie, this has gone for ages, but people are getting minimum wages, too. They would try to sue you any day but they wouldn’t be able to win it any day, I just needed to say that because I feel like it’s driving me crazy and nobodies saying nothing, not even a single letter or word, maybe just write a letter, despite how much better you’d feel off nothing but at least you’d feel achievement if you did, standing up for what you believe in, I’m relieved now, happier, less snappier, not feeling crappier, a disaster waiting to happen saved. These people craved for power and we dazed them, they fazed us, and we raised up, it amazed is how these bastards were blasted off and plastered over, shattered and mastered but what I can say is when I write rhymes it’s like I’m a robot that got stuck in a knot, a swat team smoking pot. damn

• Verse 2
• Shadows rising, darkness brightening, lightning spiting, a rewriting of the
• first verse, the matter of a curse, rehearse ing burst ing through the
• hallway, flirting and hurting, lurking the corners, deserving more,
• preserving and alerting, searching, serving, swerving around, burning the
• ground, nursing, surfing, working, twerking. I’m still learning the game,
• feeling the pain, coz when I came in with the aim of causing the shame of
• saying your own god damn name, I expected it to inflame. so do you see
• what became of me, this is my counterclaim, my hall of fame, the hall of
• shame. Maybe this here is my frame.
