War Paint

Stand up, I'm about to blow up
'Cause tonight I'm so gone, playing with fire
Stand up, revolution rise up
Don't tell me to shut up, we own the night

So come face to face with me
Tell me I'm nobody
'Cause I'll put on my war paint
So c'mon and feel the flames

You can't choose a fate for me
I know my destiny
'Cause no matter what you say
You'll only feed the flames

Fighters, roaring like a lion
I know that you're lying, so easy to read
'Cause baby, there's so much more to me
You should start to worry, I know you bleed

So come face to face with me
Tell me I'm nobody
'Cause I'll put on my war paint
So c'mon and feel the flames

You can't choose a fate for me
I know my destiny
'Cause no matter what you say
You'll only feed the flames

Ready or not
I never settled the score, I never forgot
I never said all I wanted, you never talked
You couldn't fit in my shoes, trip or walk
Lord, help me now

It seems that we fight weekly, it's seeming
That you talking that shit to appease me, I'm steaming
I'm high off being myself, I stopped fiending
The only task that I'll ever do, don't need a Meeseeks

I work to perform great
More camo than war tanks
So heads up like war paint
'Cause there is no sure thing
While blood is coursing

Don't know my limit of thinking too much
About problems that get too absorbing
Never had no time for mourning with the napalm blowing
So I made it from suicide to rap and making beats
Charge into battle with a Picasso up on my cheeks
What's the point of living if it ain't your best life?
A proverb from young Charles on the west side

You can't choose a fate for me
I know my destiny
'Cause no matter what you say
You'll only feed the flames

'Cause no matter what you say
You'll only feed the flames
'Cause no matter what you say
You'll only feed the flames
