I See Now - Little Brother & Kanye West (Produced by 9th Wonder)

"Danny was my longshot for this project. By the time I got moving on this he’d already signed with Fool’s Gold and was about to drop XXX, which would establish him as one of the fiercest MC’s out. I emailed and DM’d to no avail. One day I decided to try something really crazy and picked up the phone and called him. The stars were aligned and a rapper actually answered his phone. In all of two minutes he agreed to cut a track. I emailed him a .zip of beats I’d culled from the homies and about a week later I got a sendspace link entitled “SWEENY SONG.” He had taken a Mndsgn beat and absolutely ripped it to shreds. It’s been so long since he cut it that it now sounds like vintage Danny to me, which of course I love. I fixed the typo in the title and ran with it."

[Intro]
You ever feel that pressure in your chest, like thunder trying to escape?
That rage don’t even want blood… it wants respect
And if it can’t get respect… it goes for dominance
This ain’t about hands
This is about power

[Verse 1]
Gonna smash you the fuck out, mentally
Verbally, spiritually, energetically
Every word you speak feel weak next to me
You ain’t built like this, you ain’t bred like me
I been eating pain just to build this drive
Turned heartbreak fuel, now I over-survive
Every doubt they had, I engraved in my skin
Now every line I spit feel like a lethal win
You talking slick from the sidelines, scared to step in
While I’m in the ring with the demons, letting ‘em in
I don’t need fists, I crack worlds with a sentence
Every bar hit hard like an ancestors’ vengeance
You tried to shake me, couldn’t move my core
I been through storms you couldn’t afford
Every scar on me, that’s proof of range
Every loss I took… just fed the flame

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t confuse my anger with lack of control
I just learned how to use it, let it sculpt my soul
You wanted war, but I evolved inside it
Now I’m the quiet threat you can’t escape or hide from

[Chorus]
Gonna smash you the fuck out, on the mic
On the grind, in the light, in the long damn night
I ain’t toucher, I ain’t brawler, I annihilate tracks
Leave nothing but echoes when I step back
Gonna smash you the fuck out, with success
With pressure, with presence, with my dark damn best
You wanted beef, I turned it to gold
You wanted my fall, I took control

[Verse 2]
You ever feel hate thick in the air?
I breathe that in like a ruthless prayer
They want the smoke but they can’t with the fire
I was born from ashes, climbed out the wire
I don’t swing, I shift reality
While you stuck lost in your own mentality
Your name fades while mine get louder
Every step feel heavy like royal power
I ain’t your enemy, I’m your reflection
You hate in me what you couldn’t manifest in
That’s why your words come sharp and bitter
While I build empires brick by splinter
Clout chasers, soul breakers, energy leeches
I read through fakes like forbidden speeches
You want my fall, I want my crown
That’s why I’m rising while you drown

[Bridge]
This is the smash you’ll never recover from
Not bruises on skin, but battles you can’t win
I dominate with growth, with glow, with elevation
My existence is your biggest damn frustration
You can’t block me, can’t mute me, can’t escape
I live rent-free in your mistakes
Every win I take burns your pride
While I just enjoy the ride

[Final Chorus]
I’m gonna smash you the fuck out, in life
In light, in love, in that midnight drive
No hands needed, just ambition wild
Every doubt you spoke just fed my style
I’m gonna smash you the fuck out, in time
In my prime, in this grind, in my climb
And when they ask who did it best
My name echo in their chest

[Outro]
You thought “smash” meant my fists
Nah…
It was my mind
My heart
My voice
My evolution
That’s the kind of power
That’s fatal.
