A dingy and dirty track, delving into the mind once again, trying to balance opposing forces with some help from original Noguano collaborator Bernard Willis and kung-fu fists
lyrics
Moral Vortex
Wéye
I send texts in the rain, I'm so reckless
I use my books in the rain as umbrellas
I'm too dumb for you to ever be jealous
I'm smart enough for me to never be a felon
I learned my lesson as a blessing from my neighbors
I look before I leap, it's gaps in the wagers
Sometimes my mind reminds me body of the labor
That my ancestors prayers unfolded these layers
I need perspective when I spiral in a cortex***??
I store my consciousness inside a spinal cortex
The president and all his friends abort abortion
But support extortion, want to use distortion
Lookin' for my portion, choppin' up a slice
Matter fact I'll take two, pay my dues they do suffice
I'm who your favorite rapper's rapper loves to bite
Mean muggin' in the street but in the sheets
I stay nice, yuh
Bernard Willis
Niggas ain't practice what they preachin'
So me I'm never preachin' when I'm speakin'
Fuck fame I'm just trynna live decent
And find a bad little freak for the weekend
My ego is in beast mode
I leave a red rose at the gravesite of my deceased foes
Ten toes around these hoes
They don't wanna see me win, they'd rather see me hit the C notes
What's a vegan to a omnivore?
I indulge in the beef if you trynna war
If I'm a piece of shit, what would I be honest for?
You throwin' shade but I'll send you to the Commodores
Yeah
My life is lifeless, controlled by my vices
My advice is derisive, my loyalty is priceless
I listen to me, don't listen to you
I listen to the new school but we missin' the truth
For real
