They Knew

Is this where I'm supposed to be
In industries
Is this my given dream

On platforms that
Sell me empty nothings
As a pretty scheme

Milk me for profit
And they use my mind as a utility
Rejuvenate my palate while I tap into my artistry

The amethyst
Drip like a fountain, a being so heaven sent
Ever since
Y'all put me on stages, I try endeavour in

Everything I do and it's true
That it always hasn't been
Like this got growing pains
While I navigate through these challenges

The struggle of an artist up in DBN

Haven't you seen the bulletins
Shit is intense
Exploitation without dividends
When does this story end

See I don't know
But imma prove it that I'm worthy sitting top tier with the greats

Coexist with my collision
A stature of being ambitious
My vertex pushed to the limit
Set flame on all of these bridges
I show them who is the best
And the best is barely beginning

Put a hex
On they necks
Till they fearing my godly spirit

Got a flow fully functional farther my fullest potential
Infested pivotal pocket
My opposition in coffins

Call me thanos avenging my territorial powers
Only devour
To seek in-favour, whats rightful ours

Sipho the Gift, yeah
How am I living a life that I fantasized?
I fell in love with life and right now I'm between her thighs
I'd seen it in her eyes
She'd let me be the one and show where her secrets lied
That's how my faith materialized

If part of your plan was to ruin me, I suggest you head back to the drawing board
Or better yet the womb
They're waiting on my downfall
That shit ain't coming soon
Before I ate this beat, I put a curve on a spoon with my thoughts

So what you think will happen when I talk?
Anointing oil is dripping when I walk
This gift is not my fault
Life is like dance, just make sure you know all the steps when these niggas start to waltz

Respect is earned and I've been overdue
Acquainted with heaven but know the bottom too
So you are dealing with an artist whose, rare education taught him to walk it through
And never be scared when these demons start to bark at you

I rip through heaps of wrapping paper just to find this gift
and I walk the beaten path to find what greatness is
I knew the chalice was poisoned but chose to take a sip
You are witnessing a shooting star. It's best you make a wish
Gift
