Speed of Sound

One time for the people that were asking
Why I never flip it and I rip it into fractions
If I ain't the best, then I'm Pippen, I'm a savage
Never slip in my mission to come across the baddest
And the cash is, secondary
But I'll leave these rappers buried and you wonder what the catch is
No catch I'm just turning on the ratchets
Tightening the screws that I put into your caskets
Killing the comp for dolo and the rap masses
Stealing from the kids that's borderline tragic
It ain't complex its simple mathematics
You make TikToks, I'll make classics
Maybe one day they'll remember what a habit
For busting off lyrics like a gun I really had kid
Till the day arrives busting the latches
Take my unsettled mind try to relax it

This is the speed of sound
Coming through the air when I put it down
Move towards the speed of light
Give it to the people just the way they like
This is the speed of sound
Coming through the air when I put it down
You can tell when the speakers pound
This is the speed of sound, speed of sound

Always had a thing for the fastest rap
I figured I would do the same thing that be that
But I've adapted my own style dropped back to back
LP's in this all out, well planned attack
Welcome him back, the Seacoast's finest
No matter where ya from I give them something they can ride with
Best in your backyard, you'll get behind this
Show me any mountain together we can climb it
Where my mind is, tell me what the time is
Different every day that depending on the climate
Every word I see I design a way to rhyme it
Tyrin' to define this a difficult assignment
When I'm in, this particular zone,
I get to flowing off the handle ever listen to Bone
Not that I'm Bone or a clone but a human cyclone
Ebbs and flows of my life all written within a poem

This is the speed of sound
Coming through the air when I put it down
Move towards the speed of light
Give it to the people just the way they like
This is the speed of sound
Coming through the air when I put it down
You can tell when the speakers pound
This is the speed of sound, speed of sound

You don't have to be the fastest, the fact is
Speed takes a little more than just a little practice
Skill for real either you got it you can't grab it
Try to sing along leave you crossed up like lattice
Stumbling like walking through the woods in the blackness
Drive for the longest time Tiger Woods of the rap hits
I don't take my studio like some of you and add tricks
Maybe split a verse in half and that's it
Can't fit him in a category
In a game where the best acts have the best stories
And it's tough to match comin' from that to the glory
So I got to come up big with my shots like Rob Horry
Know what I am and I'm not and who supports me
Connect the dots the plot sits before me
Just keep building I'm making my fort Skee
Never give in, think different you mistaken sorely

This is the speed of sound
Coming through the air when I put it down
Move towards the speed of light
Give it to the people just the way they like
This is the speed of sound
Coming through the air when I put it down
You can tell when the speakers pound
This is the speed of sound, speed of sound
