Tarkatan Blades

Take me back to a time before
Perspectives were based on fraudulent depictions and political objections
When the only thing we knew is what The Elders showed us
And not some one-sided agenda that an anchor told us
I'd trade that Aston Martin Vulcan for a used Corolla
And fall in love with being liquid like Jason Mamoa
If my kids don't know your name, then I don't really know you
That's the type of stuff I notice as I'm getting older uh
Flow hard like Mike's Lemonade, I'm sharpened than Tarkatan blades
My entire body of work together forms a cavalcade
Test my limits, I'm not afraid
I'll be like this to 108
Basically, what I'm saying is I'm giving game until I'm up in age
I heard a beat and went up in arms
My battery not fully charged
But somehow got the rhythm of the night just like I'm El DeBarge

I set the bar so high this time that we going to need another bar
I don't think you want a spar
I'm not from Earth, I'm so bizarre
Just a teaspoon of my talent is worth my weight in caviar
Even telescopes can't show you just how far apart we are
I'm top tier superior
You rappers are inferior
If you ain't heard my name around then you must not be hearing clear
A true poet, yes I am
You would think they let Shakespeare in here
My line's got 'em looking like a light just hit a deer in here
Side-eyeing like a pastor bought a queer in church to cheer in here
My flow so dope, it's illegal like we driving, drinking beer in here
I'm getting near this year
Clutch with how I switch a gear
Far beyond my other peers
That was always very clear

This L seven like a cloud seed
Something's in the air in here
They stank facing every line
You'd think we getting mad in here
We multiply our dividends no audition to the math in here
Ain't talking out my derrière, but got the gift of gab in here
Great escape, winning Grammys now until I'm 98
The way I've run the track, I expose that these rappers out of shape

It's been a little minute, but God's timing means we never late
I said there's been a little minute
But God's timing means we never late
Never late
Never late
Never, never late

Take me back to a place before the projects
Where people saw us as people and not objects or future sport prospects
When the only thing we knew is what the elder showed us
And not some one-sided agenda that an anchor told us
Went to a Boat Tail Phantom from a used Corolla
I fell in love with liquid like Kel did with orange soda
Oh, if Ms. Tony don't know your name, then I don't really know ya
And if we ain't talking about that money, then I don't really want to
Un-uh
South side legend in the making
There's no mistaken that I will exceed every painstaking expectation that they gave to me
Gracefully
I'm up in the cloud with an angels be
Ain't got no time for an agency
'Cause fame don't really mean a thing to me

Flow so dope you can sell it
To a fiend
To an impressionable teen
To a junkie on the street
I can probably move a key in every key

I can probably move a key in every key
Yeah
