[Verse 1: Blueprint]
I wrote this in a coffee shop watching all the traffic
Waiting on a COTA bus ordered up a sandwich
Amazed by your melody blasting in my headphones
Familiar song played to me feeling still unknown
Past leading everywhere nowhere at the same time
Enough to spark insanity inside the most sane mind
Jealous of the birds cause God gave them the skies
So we built a machine now man learns to fly
You can fly too if the right price is paid
Do away with the bird put his ass in a cage
But even in the cage still finds time to sing
It testify to the beauty that the new day bring
They say that truth hurts well half truth still sting
If life is a bitch Iâm still giving her a ring
Never more sure this is where Iâm supposed to be
Iâm the youngest out of four momma could have stopped at three
But everything around us in the way that we define it
Is the blink of an eye or the one who designed it
English, Geometry, Mathematics, Chemistry
Computer Science, Engineering, Medicine, Dentistry
Taught in a classroom passed out of history
Man-made disciplines for living more efficiently
Concrete monuments erected more frequently
Man stands in awe of his perfect sense of symmetry
Great Walls of China, Pyramids of Egypt
Build it, destroy it, pass it on, then repeat it
Above and beyond the [?] really need it
The peak means nothing to us once we get to reach it
Parks and recreation, roadways and industry
A city now sits where nature used to live in peace
Subject indigenous to genocide and slaughter
Iâm living in a village named in that manâs honor
Southside Columbus my neighborhood is decent
But every single factory is here for a reason
Canât prove a thing but believe me that I feel it
As real as the toxins in the air when I breathe it
I want success so bad that I can barely sleep
Itâs hard to count sheep when youâre thinking about beats
Thinking about greatness not thinking about beef
Yâall need to do the same and stop thinking about me
I value time too much to be around certain people
Let âem pad each other on the back and stroke each otherâs ego
Take all the credit for success that might meet you
But when the blame is passed they donât wanna share that equal
People say anything I try not to sweat it
Respect myself too much to put they names on my record
I never owned a gun God gave me other weapons
Cause the strength of any weapon doesnât rest in the weapon
And my weapon is my message thatâs where the power found
A jewel for you fools who wonder how Iâm still around
Leader of many men, king with no crown
Emerged from the wilderness headed back to town
Rejected his birth right, ran away from home
But he the only one can pull the sword from the stone
And be the best ruler that his city ever know
So until Iâm overthrown Iâm gonna be here on the thrown
And Iâm gone!
