Don’t Cut em Slack
• Written by Kalligraphy
It’s just a matter of time, lamb platter with wine
The walls of my mind are confined sometimes
When I rhyme it’s like the world’s last shine
It’s all fine, through the darkness and vines
That you climb to see on top of the shrines
But never mind, reading books that intertwine
Theology and science all brine in my mind
Israelite Books, circling my brain in a line
With sounds from Levites preaching I am a sign
A prophesied angel that took 6 billion years to design
And you know it’s my time to show you the signs
The proof why God created for this specific time
So I can provide proper insights of many lives
Don’t cut your enemies any slack
Don’t give him a chance to fight back
Cuz you know if you do they’ll stab ya back
And that’s just the way, the way
Don’t cut you enemies any slack
And you best not let them fight back
Yes
I am the beginning of the new rap game order
The Genesis, the top of everything and more
Illmatic, the Bible, my life in a metaphor
But I was trapped in mind with no exit of
Escaping, til my brain became the Exodus
Giving me new ways to kill my own demons
And get free from the land, start redeeming
My soul that was screaming and leaning
On sins that constantly were intervening
Once I defeated the demon I was searching
For many days, Leviticus, many numbered ways
Tryna make sure the serpent doesn’t get to my face
Cuz if the disgrace of Satan still appears in way
Imma hit em with the laws that could have me saved
That Deuteronomy on the page, smoking sage
In this economy, we celebrate many peoples graves
Cuz their beliefs are different, it’s kinda sad but hey
If the horse doesn’t eat the hay, then becomes hoarse
You can proudly say he was in the wrong of course
Cuz the hunger doesn’t lie, you need to be sure
That the Lord knows you want Him to be your door
I implore
Don’t cut your enemies any slack
Don’t give him a chance to fight back
Cuz you know if you do they’ll stab ya back
And that’s just the way, the way
Don’t cut you enemies any slack
And you best not let them fight back
On the third, maybe my ways are absurd
But haven’t you heard we need knew herds
New pavers of the future to cherish our words
Cuz the way the youth mistreats the language
Is eating myself and upheaving my anguish
I wish all the new music would be vanquished
And the old styles can come back well managed
Cuz we lost our standards on this planet, dammit
One time a man I didn’t like approached me
Said “yo please, forgive me for any unholy
Things I might of said to your soul G”
In the moment, I was deserving of atonement
But looking back I said he should’ve blown it
But no kid, I forgave him like a Christian should
But should it be that easy to forgive a man or could
If I just said no, moved on and felt better
Getting back at him for his things that he lettered
To me, please I don’t know, these things are unseen
I wish I can go back and change some scenes
How much will that alter my present self esteem?
Don’t cut your enemies any slack
Don’t give him a chance to fight back
Cuz you know if you do they’ll stab ya back
And that’s just the way, the way
Don’t cut you enemies any slack
And you best not let them fight back
