Crucial

It's my destiny, sometimes life be testing me
Sometimes gets the best of me
Had months where I was on the street like sesame
You don't wanna play chess with me
Cause I'm too sharp like a right angle I promise that you less degrees
At certain times I don't feel useful
Not all the time I'm just being truthful
Life's up and down and I'm just stuck in neutral
But when I step up to the mic best believe that shit crucial
Amount of work I'm puttin' in is quadruple
Of the next best, while his head rest, I'm grindin'
The jobs already filled don't even bother applying
I got voices in my head all day like an asylum

If you listen real close you can hear 'em too
Like a zoo, I'm goin' ape shit, till I make it
Can't escape it, like a racist
Can't take it, can't face it
But the shit's inevitable you might as well embrace it
Throw you in the snake pit, pray that you make it
Guess I gotta grave dig, put up ya tombstone then deface it
Usually, I have more respect
But now I'm on your neck so ya neck you best protect
Before it gets *cracked* like it's onomatopoeia
Then I turn you to Houdini I don't ever wanna see ya
I'm loving who I am and I don't ever wanna be ya
Already said this shit is crucial but it's already time to re-up

When I bring them fast flows, and I spit like cash flows, and I spit that smash bros
And I'm up in a castles, and you get that flag flown
You surrender, and you just an asshole
We the victors, let me hear that brass blow, but don't get bashful
If we being honest, this shit a slap though
And that ain't no cap tho, and ya boy can rap though
And I got them crack flows

Then I switch it up, you should just give it up
You ain't crucial like the crew, we just live it up
Ain't no other exception than to go hard
We just living in inception here's a postcard
I'm getting ya girl wet like a boatyard
The coast guard, my own art, like Mozart
See I don't live life by any definition
I just make sure I avoid any pessimism
I got bars, flows, dreams, goals, many mechanisms for success
Nonetheless, you could say I'm blessed
My rhymes are education, for the population
With misinformation, on the generation
Keep communication, on the situation
I'm smart and crucial it's a combination
