DEFENDER'S RAP

• I come from hardship, a titanic of titanium
• Born to shake gymnasiums and confuse em’ for stadiums with “radio”active flows exploding speakers like uranium
• Flow rarer than Sylvanium, I leave foes in darkness despite being a beacon of hope like light through an atrium
• I gotta say, it’s cool to see others learn from me and hand me my flowers, my pot of geraniums
• If I’m blessed to see 81, I want to be remembered by my authenticity
• Not ego-centricity and dissin’ these rappers think they have to do in order to fit the scene, lest nobody missing me
• Empires like the Byzantine forged with simplicity. If they call me corny, my music will remain a mystery
• But I’ll never stop belting lyrics while I’m alive, no flat lines. I’m rockin’ with symmetry
• I got y’all locked in like a “trap”ezoid the way I leave you on edge
• Ensnared like a curse, you’ll be “hex”-a-gone like a victim in a ghost story who got shoved off a ledge
• A scene so picturesque and photogenic, you’d almost forget I’m being metaphorical with the pen’s sketch
• No sympathy for a wretch. I could stick my neck out for you and pull a few muscles to ensure a good fate, but that’d be a stretch
• Forgive me if I overstepped, I walk a jagged line
• Weatherbeaten from years of being stepped on, my surface inclines
• Environmental stressors may have given me a few scars, but when the soil settles, I’ll be fine
• Legacy set-in-stone, like rhine. Jealousy protrudes in souls jealous of my shine
