If you ain't botta die for it, baby you ain't livin/ everything I touch is gold/ so gold is how I'm feelin/ golden aura, golden mind, trophy queens, golden women/ I'm racin to my goals/ I'm in it til I'm finished
I stopped workin hard and I started workin smarter/ & now my name is known and bein mentioned wit the martyrs/ the Basquiats', the Pablos', baby I'm Will Porter/ I'm what the people need/ shxt I'm what the culture ordered/ I don't fuxk wit culture vultures, ima eagle/ got the vision/ never needed bifocals, look me in my eyes I'm focused/ I see it then I'm at it like I tagged it in a post/ & I ain't braggin or boastin I'm just more honest than most/ live and die by my art baby put that in a quote/ that's what I ask em when they comin at my throat/ that's what I ask em when they all up in my inbox/ if you ain't coppin then kick rocks/ & no, I do not do discounts/ I'm hungry for dis shxt I'll eat whatever beef you dish out/ go off wit the head & I don't mean eatin yo bitxh out/ I'm talkin sharp blades/ cut you a new fade/ and if you eva throw shade/ it get dark where you at/ cuz I'm blackin, I'm trained to go/ niggas in park where you at/ my reign comin, reign with an E/ need Noah's ark where you at/ mind over matter and you don't matter/ as a matter of fact/ my flow is in tact/ it cannot be hacked/ I'll put money on it, my flow is a stack/ don't like quick money, easy cheese often come wit a trap/ leave dat for da rats/ please stay where you at/ & don't tell me shxt unless it's real as a fact
Cuz you ain't gotta lie for it nigga stop fibbin/ everything I touch is cold/ so cold is how I'm feelin/ frozen flow/ froze in time/ drinks on ice/ neva spillin/ chasin dreams not hoes, man/ that love shxt is for tennis/ have you ever looked a king in his eyes?/ I'm not a human, I'm a God in disguise/God body, praise to Allah/ sent from the God in the skies/ I send a prayer up for the lost souls who don't want me to rise/ these gifts are for you, if you ain't knowin, nigga surprise/ unwrap these lines, take the words as a sign/ I made this lane & now I'm speedin/ blowin trees I got my reasons/ get off my ass, where you learn how to drive?/ I had six senses since a nigga was five/ saw my first body at the young age of nine/ neighbors is cryin/ they mama dead/ victim of suicide/ killed on a Sunday, early mornin, broad day, she outside/ gun in her hand & her brains by her side/ ever since then I been dreamin bout dyin/ so I wake up just to kill canvas, it gives me so much peace of mind/ cuz if I die before I make it I know my family fine/ fuxk rich, we gon be wealthy/ mark my word it's our time/ man this song so fuxkin real I had to hold back from cryin/ this the realest shxt I ever wrote/ I swear I ain't lyin
& if a nigga die/ don't cry/ keep livin/ I'm just glad I touched ya soul wit the gifts that I was given/ spoken word, killin canvas/ lyric spittin/ it was written/ I brought it full circle/ I'm just fulfilling scripture
