Ferry Wait
Analogical
I swear I love my borough
Ferry wait I'm heading back to the island
Homecoming alert just left the city wilding
Putting on for my borough I really be trying
Resurrecting words back to life defiant like Lazarus
Walk this way, Aerosmith. Envision when greatness hits
Imagine this, do numbers like Drizzy or calculus
Don't mind me as I wait, I'm just gathering thoughts
I love you mama, cause of you see I'm cut from a different cloth
My sister told me real talk you got to do what you love
So I gotta to use my gift from up above
I don't do it for the clout just love running these routes
And the only one that shut me down is doubt
Most days when I wake up, I'm mastering preparation
Then other times I'm waking up seeking out validation
And I ask myself why, who's list you trying to make?
That ain't you, that ain't you let them glorify the fake
I rather be real and absolutely rejected
Then faking theatrics measured by metrics to be accepted
Fraternity rappers AKA they beta cappers
Lying about what they rapping they molding our whippersnappers
I gotta laugh cause the rappers you gassing it got me baffled
Cause they couldn't spit those verses wearing Wonder Woman's lasso
So I gotta ask the crowd what's your definition of real
Cause I ride or die for mine Bradley Beal
Tell these niggas that I play chess don't get checked
Or it's metal to your bones weapon X you ain't stressing yet
Trust me not a threat like bomb drops or a flex
I provide retrospect to disrespect
And I hate promoting violence I'm not with at all
They say nice guys finish last well that story is false
Y'all made the nicest guy ever really feel like he's at a lost
Oh now you want to kick it just to get your point across
I keep something in my crib that bark louder than Mamarduke
Between me and you it leave much room like a power boost
When it comes to protecting mine I go dum like Tweddledee
Rick James it can ring like unity
Not a street nigga I was just a nerd in the streets
I had to to adapt I couldn't afford any mishaps
I am Port Richmonds own, ferry terminal throne sitter
Fuck any racist politician y'all niggas bitter
Flow colder than Danica watching her EX play
So much jeopardy this year I got no answers like sway
God tier write my verses with chisels and tabernacles
I bring so much fire power you thought it was Bowser Castle
One day my city will recognize me as one of the realist
And y'all will recognize Staten as having some of illest and
Dopest emcees stamping imprinting our legacies
Stop inspecting our methods we cheffing up you best believe
Maybe my pen go harder cause the lack of acceptance
Ferry wait got me thinking the mind a dangerous weapon
Brown paper bag I'm supposed sober up
Emotional thoughts be hitting me up like what the fuck
I would fly by the rock like Jigga and aerodactyls
This concrete jungle can be hassle
Put me in better schools to keep me out the streets
African parents I promise you niggas don't miss a beat
Mom fought for my safety like she was Ryu or Ken
Cause If I Zangeif any beef she went psycho General M
Do I need to be more street to get my city attention
Tough guy persona take gangsta class for retention
The once again I would ask what's your definition of real
Better yet which one you define realer
The nigga that claps heat like he working up on the clock
Vs the nigga that actually made it out?
Every verse I write I vow that I'm bringing the kitchen sink
But yet I still be caring what you motherfuckers think
Every bar I'm throwing up I'm making you niggas hurl
Don't get jacked for rose thinking you king of the world
On this ferry ride on god please don't let it be your pride
I'm mellow hoodie melo canelo Jekyll and Hyde
I aim better my circle talk different Rosetta Stone
All we ever talk about embracing greatness on the phone
And when greatness call I still get them butterflies in my core
Cause I'm slowly on the rise like Golden eye temple doors
If they switch the game up listen still winning no lose or draw
Cause I'm holding all cards Kaiba Corp
Guess time will only tell as I sit here ponder
Word to Wezzy F I'm that G in lasagna
See the game don't stop y'all investing in AMC
My best investment ever made was investing in me
I swear I love my borough
Ferry wait I'm heading back to the island
Homecoming alert just left the city wilding
Putting on for my borough I really be trying
Resurrecting words back to life defiant like Lazarus
Walk this way, Aerosmith. Envision when greatness hits
Imagine this, do numbers like Drizzy or calculus
