CHALLENGER'S RAP
- Listen to the lessons of this nerdy foo
- A geek who
- Learned how to survive in barrio schools
- Just keep cool
- Your mind must be sharp
- And I aint talking academics
- Keeping calm is an art
- Freeze your heart and raise your spirit
- It's apparent, you will live through struggles
- Just look at me
- Grown by one parent, an outcast muggle
- Yet still I breathe
- Under constant pressure
- So I smoke grass for relief
- Charged through life to make a path
- Made mistakes to hone my craft
- Definition of a self made man
- Cause I've been steeled by the fire
- Any jeer, I spit back three
- 20 plus years In this earth
- It's been two centuries since my birth!
DEFENDER'S RAP
- Discovering joy in life... It's a scary ass road, they say "Enjoy the ride!" and it's a Ferris wheel that flared up in smoke – That's unfair
- Yes I know, I know the unbearable toll, I'm from the School of Hard Knocks and I've felt its terrible blows... It's degrading I know
- But, those are some of the very moments that I cherish the most.
- Even in the constant tug of war between despair and of hope,
- Pain is inevitable but the more intense the misfortune the more room there is necessary for growth.
- Since birth, on a search for Your soul – To the pursuit of nirvana, in virtuous morals I pursue Dalai Lama
- A journey to forego as the Universe's Morse code is computed in conscience
- We're just Earthly mortals and too many of us humans are toxic, I've learned to let go of things that personally meddle and...Hakuna Matata
- Gotta stay true to yourself because being you is second to none, so do what you wanna
- Keeping my distance is the best thing I've done, but I keep my defiling enemies snug, in case I need that incentive to prove 'em all wrong 'n,
- Tell 'em what's up. Because those people + self-love cannot coexist,
- So I weeded out the venomous one's that may have hissed 'cos to blossom and prosper,
- Those are the snakes that'll fetter ya buds. Stronger is what you'll head to become – So just persist, man, NEVER give up.
- But learn how to forget about grudges because regardless if they're heartless,
- We all have our story of hardships, so, trust few, but show everyone love.
- Prejudice or assumptions are common blunders,
- But time and time again you'll meet people that are prime examples of why you shouldn't judge anyone by their cover.
- The world is chaotic and there's so much lies, but there's beauty in the wake of it all,
- So keep an open mind, but take information to a grain of salt
- Don't tarnish your character for the wrong motives, that'll likely make you look birdbrained, and fall
- I've learned to think ahead and pace myself through obstacles, but there's no shame in not being flawless
- I'm just tryna' be a role model, to my lil' peers – Sometimes first-hand experience is better than word of mouth, revealed here
- 'Cos no doubt, unless you're the opposite of docile, you'll most definitely learn from your mistakes after they've instilled fear
- And you've spilt tears. That's humility, yeah, life will kick your ass into being humble real quick,
- Just remember to give your elders and your loved ones their roses while they're still here.
