DEFENDER'S RAP

• You a copy of a copy, boy, you stuck in the sleeve
• Tryna act like you important but you struggle to breathe
• Every moment that you flex you just hoping they believe
• But your whole identity is something you retrieve
• I been moving with a purpose while you mimic the scene
• Say you solid but you fragile like you built outta lean
• Tryna mirror every phrase like it’s part of your routine
• But the second pressure hits you fall apart in between
• I’m the one they recognize without a need for a plea
• You the type to chase approval like a dog on a spree
• Call yourself a hustler but your pockets never seal
• Tryna flex a borrowed chain like it’s a part of your deal
• You a shadow in the hallway tryna copy my stride
• You a replica in motion but you empty inside
• Every drip you wearin’ on you just a second-hand pride
• Every bar you ever spit is just a watered-down ride
• I’m the blueprint, boy, you only follow the draft
• You be claiming you the captain but you stuck on the raft
• Every joke you ever crack sound like you forcing a laugh
• Every image that you post don’t align with your path
• I’m original, authentic, you just follow the beat
• I be writing every chapter while you copy the sheet
• You be hyping up your presence but your vibe is petite
• Acting like you from the jungle but you walk on concrete
• I be gliding in a rhythm that you never can see
• Flow so quick it triple-times but moves naturally
• You be tryna catch the pace like it’s a late entry fee
• Tryna be the one they praise but that was destined for me
• You the background conversation, I’m the headline appeal
• You the knock-off in the market, I’m the luxury feel
• I be living all my lyrics, everything that I seal
• You be switching up your story every time you reveal
• I’m the voice that they repeat when they be needing a guide
• You the noise that people skip when they be scrolling aside
• You be talking like a giant but you barely got pride
• You be claiming that you real but you just never decide
• I be stepping with precision every time I advance
• You be stumbling in my shadow like you stuck in a trance
• You be watching every move like you recording my stance
• Tryna post the same angle thinking that give you a chance
• I’m the storm you couldn’t handle, you a breeze in the night
• I’m the depth inside the ocean, you the splash in the light
• You be acting like you fierce but you avoid every fight
• You be copying my tone hoping your tone sound right
• I’m the leader of the wave, you just drift in between
• I’m the glowing centerpiece, you the dust on the screen
• You be claiming you the hardest but you soft in routine
• You be posing as a legend but you barely a meme
• I’m the chapter they remember, you a page in the back
• You a temporary moment, I’m a permanent track
• You be talking ’bout your come-up but you stuck in the lack
• You be bragging ’bout a phantom but got nothing to stack
• I’m the pressure of the diamond you can’t handle the heat
• I be standing on my own while you depend on repeat
• You be stealing every concept like you copying a sheet
• You be tryna be the menace but you mild and discreet
• I be timeless with the rhythm, you be aging in fear
• You be tryna chase a lane that was never your gear
• You be talking ’bout your future but it never comes near
• You be tryna be the echo but I’m crystal and clear
• I’m the only one who do it with a natural spree
• You a wannabe forever never closer to me
