Break the Chain

2013 I had an idea
Stop looking for labels and take back my career
Start performing with confidence, never rapping in fear
So I started a business, the Camp Phire is here
Started off with a couple of my high school friends
Chris Lloyd, Scenario, and Cheeze, my new men
To take over the industry with a hot new trend
Branding and business that'll stack new ins
And crack dudes chins with the bars, flows and beats
Darts, notes and speech that'll make Detroit
Hardcore and beast, but the fake destroyed
The infrastructure of the group, I was blaming Lloyd
But poor leadership on my end messed it up
Couldn't move it on my own like driving a Tesla
So I gathered 3 new phenomenal MC
Demon Eyes Kyo, Mo Mo and Wood Zombie, let's go

Can't tell you
How to see me
Just a cage of bones
There's nothing inside
Will it polish me
Burning down the walls
Is there a way
For me to break

2015, my idea cold
The new Camp Phire killing shit, outta control
Is it a motherfucker in the D stopping us, no
From the rhymes, to the beats, even rocking the shows
Merch game going crazy, but who woulda thought
I would start falling for somebody in the crew, nah
Me and Mo hit it off, Zombie told me I was soft
But it wasn't anybody that could open up the thought
That we weren't meant to be, thinking Zombie isn't right
Didn't matter cus he left and started Children of the Night
It was always a lil tension between him and Mo
Age difference didn't help, he was young and she was old
Generational difference can cause friction in business since
Understanding is the only way to keep the business lit and lift
After that, just me Mo Mo and Kyo
Scenario and Cheeze in it but they ain't working no mo, so

Can't tell you
How to see me
Just a cage of bones
There's nothing inside
Will it polish me
Burning down the walls
Is there a way
For me to break

2017, my momma died rough
Killed from an infection as if the cancer ain't enough
Me and MoMo broken up, and this time it's final
2018 I was working with a rival
Or that's what it felt like, all we did was argue
Relationship effecting my businesses and my art too
So by 2019 it was over
And then 2020 niggas dealing with the Covid
Didn't seem like my dream getting any closer
Keeping my composure but competing like a soldier
Is harder every day, now I'm getting depressed
In and out the hospital, cell sickling, yes
Popping 10 pills a day like an opium head
Rap the only thing keeping me from loading the lead
Put the toast to my head and saying hi to my mom
Or take 18 pills like I'm swallowing bombs, fuck it

Let that shit blow

Can't tell you
How to see me
Just a cage of bones
There's nothing inside
Will it polish me
Burning down the walls
Is there a way
For me to break

My best friends Scenario and Cheeze still around
And me and Kyo working on some heat with the sound
So I'ma stay here just a little while longer
And hope God show me how to make his child stronger
I can't promise I'ma make it through
So if I die before 2022, this a statement to
Any of my friends and fans I got left
It's a lot to live for, fuck dying, not yet
