Gettysburg Address Lyrics

Only the strong survive, that's why I'm still alive
We live in an era where the children die and villains rise
Ain't nobody civilized, we ridicule and criticize
Intertwine a killers mind, that's the world I live inside
Pick a side, live or die, over there is genocide
Over here is homicide, everybody's gotta die
Death is evident when everybody carry's Glocks and nines
We done lost a lot of lives, bunch of family's dramatized
Daddy's never comin back, wipe the tears from mommas eyes
Growing up alone's like walkin down the halls of columbine
An absent father breeds an absent minded trapped inside a drastic climate
Maximize the violence half the time it
Makes a suicidal savage with a psychopathic habit
Spittin biohazard gasses mixed with hydrochloric acid
Hide ya kids in attics lost my mind thru all the madness
Used a microphone to grasp it so I rap it as I write it
The path is then rewinded circled round like a booby trap
Everytime I take a couple steps im only moving back
Im thru with that and this foolish path of polluted gas
Ill reach the fuckin moon and back before I get immune to that
Assuming that living was in a gruesome condition
Cuz every funeral givin I started loosin religion
I needed supervision or a parent who would listen
But aparrantly the clarity of that was never mentioned
Scared to be a rarity but fuck it man im gifted
My spirt is lifted by lyrics encrypted its clear that im different
Fear my ambition cuz years of fighting the system
Gave light to a vision that changed my life if you listen
But if you just ignore it the monster that was dormant
Will erupt and combust I do not give a fuck
They do not give enough, props to the ones
Who rap for the love of hip hop not for funds
The clock has become enemy number one
What if I don't have the time to finish what ive begun
Look at what ive become, an animal full of rage
I told you to quit fuckin wit me now im out of my cage
Ill be waitin for the day, I swear to god ill be ready
Ya arragonce is embarrasin wearin it makes you petty
My address is that of ghettys my army is lookin steady
I slice ya heart in confetti while lickin off my machete
Say hello to mr freddy as I welcome you to tragedy
It baffles me to see the casualtys of this catastrophe
Built with an anatomy to kill assault and battery
A villain with a feelin of killin any who battle me

Ive dreamed all my life, to believe is to fight
I scream what I write im a fiene for the mic
I speak from the heart dog I bleed on the mic
Flow stay sharp cuz I think with a knife
Life is not a stage fuck a mask im not a thespian
Im just pedestrian with a future that's definite
My specimen is a descendant of Thomas Edison
My minds bright my light never goes out inside my residence
