Most High Dose

This for my younger self
Who was lacking in vision
Could get enraptured in music
But the action was missing
Yeah I heard the call
But the passion was distant
Clearly built for but a fraction of the mission
Blunted ashes and image
Smoke dreams only passive and distant
I was good at living vicariously
Through rappers that did it
I was ghost - Casper with rhythm
Only masked in a schism
Laughed at anyone who earned their masters in living
I could see the steps ahead
But my feet they were paralyzed
Cuz what comes with that torch
Is the ability to fail and I don't
Think that I could handle that
My ego as frail as a sandal backs
Damaged facts was familiar
But, I could handle that
And I'd write rhymes but shit
Honestly, I couldn't feel em'
Pain pushes till vision pulls
Mediocrity is that real bitch
Gotta learn to handle a ya own
But what about when the seal splits
You get to see what that real is

Metaphorical foot on my neck
Face in the dirt and I needed to taste it, it hurt
Tears like rain I made mud
Beauty out of pain and it worked
Blood, sweat, tears... shit
That's my holy trinity
Phoenix to the Triple three
No way to mimic authenticity
And this act one from my trilogy
Straight dope and no filler
Praise hope it gets no realer
Reasons that I actually give a fuck about this industry it's people
Hearts suffer through pain and heal
That's what it is to me
And for those who don't and die
Life's a tragic wheel
So while we still spinning
I wanna give you something you can feel
Time's precious and it can't be replaced
So for now, ya'll family, whatever ya culture creed or race
We all human
And it's our souls truth that I believe
And lives change through powerful art
Shit look at me
I'm on this stage because of all those ahead of me
Indebted to every artist who dove deep into their darkness
I'm talking every piece
Just to share their story with the world
The carnage
Heartbreak and the glory
Main courses no garnish
Just that raw uncut
Flawed and fucked up
South pawed when lucks up
Walled and unloved
Alone no plus one
And it ain't hard to see the truth
No matter the tone
Ya'll might not speak English
But you're gone feel it in your bones
I'm a conduit of the Most High poems
And promise before I go
I'm a leave you with this Most High Dose

I spit these words as a form of medicine
My one request of you - is to simply let it in
I spit these words as a form of medicine
My one request of you - is to just (let it in)
I spit these words as a form of medicine
My one request of you - is to simply let it in
I spit these words as a form of medicine
My one request of you is to (let it in)
