Purer Motives
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish it
What are you witnessing? This is my penmanship
This is the venom invented to finish your feelings of innocence
No one is innocent
All are infected by sin and its synonyms. Yeah
I'm the degenerate that has been given the benefit
Not of the doubt, but of Genesis through the regenerate
Work of the God I called nemesis
Both in my words and my living in sin
I couldn't just sit and relive this again and again and again
I was gifted the gift of repentance; definitive intimate time
With the One who invented the
Timeout, all y'all rapping like this? Free smoke free smoke
Wait I heard your album last week, was that a free joke, free joke
I don't understand, how there's, no original bone in your body yeah
You the type to catch a body
Yeah, you should leave rap a hobby, yeah
Listen, I was cool to just be quiet
But since y'all done let us in here, we gon' set this thing on fire, hold up
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish this imagination running
As I navigate assumptions
That my motives aren't as pure
Now it's Imagination hunted
I hear the accusations coming
Like Kai, what's your problem
Kai, where's your power
Why are you callous
Kai, where's the album
Kai, is it Christian
Kai, what's the merit
Kai, are you dissing
Kai, how's your marriage
Why, are you distant
Kai, are you prayerless
Kai, give me answers that you don't owe me
And I'm gonna need all the specifics like
I think we should slow it down some
Since you need to learn your limits
When you speak, tone it down some
Cause you're close to burning bridges
If you shade and call it business, well then I might take that personal
And at that time we just might find the damage done is irreversible
Most people inquire because they're curious not concerned
Listen I'll be this authentic till I die
I can't say the same for you cause you know Truth but live a lie
Hold up Hold up
In the darkness is where I fought this
Heartless-ness
Caught listless
Saw friendships all dismissed
Lord, this is hard
And we thought distance re-solved tension, but we harbor bitterness
To the point where we speak like archangels, but inside we curse like an arch nemesis
That's pain not dealt with, on the internal stages
So I aim with the felt-tip to these thin journal pages
But I'm anxious
And I don't want to waste this sacred space so I place my words on a waitlist
And pray till the weight lifts; tryna to stay awake since I'm waist-deep in an oasis
Of my own blame in this
I won't sleep till I know my place in this whole relationship breakdown
And if you respect me, then I expect you to do the same now
But don't take apathy and apply make-up to it, and call it grace now
I refuse to acknowledge pride as a way out, besides
I never believe everything I feel
See my scars are within view, that's God's grace to know I heal, hold up
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish it
You start it, I'll finish it
What are you witnessing? This is my penmanship
This is the venom invented to finish your feelings of innocence
No one is innocent
