Amai

Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai
Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai

Yuh
The navigation says I'm far from perfect, but in the right direction
I remember ditching class, that's how I learned my lesson
I just wanted to fly, my spirit was more like MJ's
Trynna be like Mike, just wanted to walk in 'em Jays
Till I discovered a different mic and started to spit
Entirely devoted my life to killing these beats
But the labels turned me down, I didn't turn up on the beat
So my numbers were poor; I didn't have the reach
But these words carry weight, there's volume to my poetry
In plain words, my rap is solid, pardon the geometry
Who could square up with me?
Never went outta shape, I run circles around emcees
I don't mean to attack, nah, and in my defense
I put our differences aside and made a huge difference
I made peace with them rappers, just never come for my spot
The only time I have beef is when I eat up your GOAT
Can't even write a wack line now, it's kinda risky
They've got eyes on every syllable like Mississippi
I know we took the same notes but I had a different code
Since I showed up on the scene, they've seen me on every show
Gave it a hundred percent, it's my philanthropy work
They say the good die young, I shoulda died in my birth
So ahead of my time the clock has to adjust
I'm at the finish line and I've been here from the start
As I scribble and paint pictures with these colorful words
The pen I draw with makes these rappers withdraw their pen
It comes back full circle, they memorize history
But I had to create memories first to make history
I'm the last of my species; I'm basically Denver
Stuck in an era where they show fake love to real rappers
I'm from the bottom but I'mma see the top of the world
And if I don't see it, then I'mma topple the world
Still got close when nobody opened doors for me
I burned bridges with everybody that done crossed me
Many say they're the greatest, I'm the greatest to ever say it
I'm just here to destroy, it's the reason I'll never make it
Can't let a beat breathe, my intention is to kill
So it's not just the ink but the blood that I spill
Put a price on rappers' heads and I'm a multimillionaire
Don't beg me to spare your body, I already brought the body bag
But let me go back to my theme
I'm like Leo in Inception, just trynna live the dream
Been doing this for so long, funny I'm still in my youth
Figures do not lie, I'll let you figure out the truth

Rimwe zuva zvichanaka
Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai
Rimwe zuva zvichanaka
Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai

Been meaning to get this load off my chest like breast reduction
So much drive in me, I could never confine to road instructions
He just beat me to the fame
But it feels like I was rapping before Juan Méndez had made a name
My mission was to nail it, and start driving Hummers
But my raps never came with the dough, unlike shawarmas
I know rappers without the drive but they got automobiles
Still my ink goes further like I write with a quill
But they kept me away from the limelight like a mistress
I'm a sick rapper who never got the preferential treatment
Fake rappers effing with ballers, you're like Kendall to me
Even with the loadshedding, none of you could hold a candle to me
Coz I got enough bars to go compete with a hive
I hate them atheists and agnostics who doubt I'm alive
Niggas try to harden up when they see me reach my goals
But I still hit the net like injuries in the playoffs
Listen to the streets; my bars have always made noise
So to me, raising the bar is simply raising my voice
Even academics struggle with my lines, they complex like that
I'm the star that goes over your head like Birdman's tat
I'm back on my dope shit, this is a relapse
I really rap dope, I'm feeling like a Rizla
Bars hotter than Dakota, I got these fans fanning
Been winning for so long, I'll always smell like confetti
If they were championships with them rings, I'd feel like Tolkien
I made Trash just to make them stop that trash-talking
My lyrics paint pictures, my pen doubles as a brush now
Every page is photographic, that's the essence of an album
Lines too crazy, they put my bars in straitjackets
This is food for thought for the mentally malnourished
I'm the hottest and the sickest; these are fever symptoms
They could never touch my lines, man, I rap asymptotes
You add my energy in total, I can fuel the nation
So many moves, feels like I achieved perpetual motion
Niggas say I'm not that guy
I'm on my Stephen A. Smith like you're wrong and here's why

Rimwe zuva zvichanaka
Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai
Rimwe zuva zvichanaka
Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai

Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai
Usazokanganwa amai, usazokanganwa amai
