Name is ELJAY and the K1NG came with it
Still carrying cracked crowns, so there's pain with it
So a lot of times I go out my way when pennin' rhymes
To have content and jokes in same sentence
Distributor of dopeness, yeah that slang penman
Ship'll rip a track apart and leave your brain spinnin'
Spit'll make you crash a car, you can hear the passion hard
Even if you passin' by, send beats to the afterlife
Wave it Bye (Bye) Bye, 'NSync with the lines and it
Glide with the smoothness of Omarion in Timberlands
Making sure the bars are potent so you remember him
Making sure the dope affects your listenin', making sure you
Ain't able to function, unless you get a hit again
You gon' have to hit social media just to get at him
You gon' wish it was the 50s' just so you could spit at him
Tryna' hit the culture with quality so it shifts again
Tryna' make you nod in recognition to the references
Tryna' make you vibe one time for the mind
I've refined my mission man, lacing bars with uncut
Pure Columbian, grab a mic to move it through the
Music you can listen in, now you can't stay still
Your shoulders get to twitchin' from the flows that's illicit and 
No profanity but somehow it's still explicit and
This is just a taste, want the rest? Then I need dividends
I ain't gotta stretch the dope, my content'll fill it in
Pull up in my whip again, handing out LPs
EPs and white tees like I'm movin bricks and bands
Addictive when using pens, I need you to understand
I need you to comprehend, every time you see me
Hope you thinking "here we go with pushin' RDFND again"
....But this my vision I'm
Tryna' change things before I'm dead like Eddie Kane with a

[Verse 2]

Blankface, ELJAY
Kill every track that I go lay
Groundbreaking with sick raps, that's Chipotle
Chop the sample before I smash like it's foreplay
Then get three homies to run the gauntlet call it four-play
Avoid the passive aggressive stabs, call em (e)X-Games
I ski right over the lines like I'm Shaun White
Riding the wave the same way he rides the halfpipe
Give me my medals and I'll accept them with a
(BLANKFACE) Sorry I feel like I deserve the props that (I get) 
Rather pen these lyrics than to entertain that (set trip)
Tryna hold my tongue but sometimes I gotta (let rip)
Else someone might play me for a sucker but i (just sit)
Thinking about the progress I've made before I (GO CRAY)
Not trying to start it all over and re(Set game)
So peep game as you say everything you (gon' say)
I'm gonna keep winnin' and levitating with a (BLANKFACE)
