At the bottom of the well, all wishes void and null
A penny from they hand fell a height and broke my skull
Zeros and ones dictating who you are and what to pull
The loaded few hoard the food, but their bellies wasn't full
Seasons change, regimes stay in these days that we've entered
Those in the cave seen a flicker, but can we sway the momentum?
Body the ruins of a sacred temple, pain been inflicted
If I go out, it won't be pretty like Manet had depicted
Can I stay cool and calm
As the face of a river that's tryna steal a kiss?
Sink or swim, everything is second-guessed
Tears are wept, dreams are nixed
Strenuous to spread my wings
Stretches missed, records skipped
Past events reassessed and recontextualized
Get the gauze, I done bled a lot
Picking petals off, will they forget me, forget-me-not
Melting clocks, I don't know the time, it's a slow decline
Codified the best-laid plans, they still go awry
Used to walk 'round tall towers for long hours
Couldn't talk 'bout it, not sprouting, was wallflower
The reason sound like conjecture, it sound like projection
Meanwhile, everybody else has found they collective
The rapture's horns sound like lounge in the distance
In a spiral, peep how viral the death is
Maybe this bout of depression how gout for the kings is
Turns out the crown was the litmus
If when he drown, who wound up a witness
You had your doubts in me, did you?
Shoutouts to Blank, but you know these is my thoughts
Listen
They say, "Bronze, how you deal with being underrated"?
I said, "Only solution to ignorance is patience"
Tryna get a side chain 'round my neck, it duck for me
I stay coming correct, I'm Robert Horry
I come in clutch when these kids is boring
These 16s is sweeter when my ink is pouring
And these flows switch up like Italy when warring
Find a more versatile style and I'll file for divorcing the game
Until then, I tend to the beat like 5 times 2
I rhyme to be the MVP 5 times also
Young Apollo, spit hollows, shinigami prolly follow
These flows switch up like a switch
Rapid-fire spit or a stick take your pick
Like grandma told you to grab a switch
I beat the beat black and blue with verbal arguments
Nobody taught me how to be, it was common sense
And it's a common sin, this confidence was conjured in
Like call me in
And all this collagen, won't be for nothing
Vic Mensa had me singing bout orange soda
Now I'm tryna get sun-kissed
These chumps get to rumblin'
Bubbling up something amok
They dumbing it down, I'm bumping it round
So close to town, how profound
Now they're bound, allowed to frown
Wow, they're clowns, pound for pound, nouns is down
Hounds mound sound towns
Crowns found, rightfully ours, it's very scary
Necessary, baring my chest, daring the rest
Tariffs with terrorists, I stare and then shoot through the vest
These dismal writtens keep it simple pimping
Soldiers chipping on every shoulder
Origami fold you over paper, wait a minute
