No Enemies

Richie Branson

This rap shit is his love he call her adrian
Eyes swollen shut can't wait to see her face again 
They gotta cut him just to get another day to live 
But when the surgery is up he'll get a major win
Still, This could be the last song he ever makes 
Seems like yesterday he thought he'd be at heavens gate 
He took a step away from rap so he could medicate
They celebrate his absence now he's back to devesate 
Stepped outta the hyperbaric like Kakarot
Capsule shot 'll smash they block up like an aftershock 
Richie Branson these other rappers is afterthoughts 
I snack a lot eating tracks somebody pass the sause 
Blasted off getting so damn high 
like an overhyped astronaut in no man's sky
Used to hit class a lot rocking poor man's ice
had them rocks flashing off like the Kodak lights 
Yeah this is where the hook was supposed to go but
when you hittin bars, 16'll get you no luck 
Even at my worst the flow colder than a snow bluff 
traveling since birth them roads (rhodes) raised me like I'm GoldDust 
Damn microphone getting dusty 
You better bring an army if you're thinking you can crush me 
I'm going off the deep end with no bungie 
I wrote this shit down on the weekend so don't judge me

Gatekeepers take note! I want my piece/ close the doors in my face I'll break em down, I'm not Maurice/ I'm the wolves who chase after him/ better yet I'm the beast who smashes them/ when Belle's in a disaster grim/ speaking of Bells I don't crack Em I just ring em/ there's liberty attached to what I'm bringing/ cuz really I am mastering the feat of/ shooting blasts of bars, reality for dreamers/ they can happen, I believe it/ you receive it/

So I've got my weight up, look at palm skin and see callous/ best expect the plates that I lift to keep piling/ 'til I'm  round the world spitting 16s/ so pristine/ you could paint them on the Sistine Chapel/ since beginning like the ones who sinned gleaned apples/ I've been surgical when all these pricks need scalpels/ by that I mean I'm swinging like I'm gifting Falcon/ Punches, plus Ihomer, 415, out there/ 

The hook should go here but I'd rather rap and rip for fans/ I rarely sleep, but my dreams could turn Edward Scissorhands/ to Krueger/ spew and leaking out the blood of any sycophant/ trying dupe the view of future sleeping on the vision man/ so I try to avoid these homies with no process it's/ problematic like hemoglobin with low oxygen/ I've have been/ sick of seeing this unarmed violence and/ acknowledge that I should give my voice more to this problem then/

You said it an didn’t mean it
i said it cause i believe an it an breath it 
 
i mean it until i start being 
a being made of pure light 

until a change descends through the night

never think i’m not down an dirty 
cause i’m ready to fight

see the plight is my might  
an i’m strong cause i’m right

I will strive to be righteous 
this hook is my right fist of justice 

so weight me now so we can discuss this 
we kneel your disgusted we sit it’s disgusting

revolted, revolting
don’t look the other way when i’m talking

live long and prosper like i’m a Vulcan
you follow anything that means that you standing for nothin

don't even know the path that you walking
i’m fighting for freedom 

3D maneuver gear I don't need it
I’l coming from the walls of maria 

ya boy is a titan
I’m crushin anyone who don't like me

an eating any MC surviving
An here’s where the hook went

(pause) Naw 

I dont like it
I rather have a moment of silence 

pick up the flow an go till my minds spend  
run out other words i can rhyme with 

I rather spit up bars till my rhymes sick
like i’m a plague thats raging bubonic

I spread though your township 
have everybody worried my mind split 

Like dude he use to be such a nice kid
I wonder what we did

to have him spazzing out
like he’s 3 fifths

Strongest Nerd In The World feat. Creative Mind Frame

Song Adapted - Kendrick Lamar - Humble

I submit that worth and value reprimand pain callouses
The mind contends with hurt and adds the pressure makes you mad with it
Pride insists that I should have respect, I safely can admit
But I forget that life will snap your neck and make you bandage it

I just quit my job and I'm afraid
Cause I believe I've hit my calling but I'm not sure how it pays
That's lie. I can see that there's a process I create
Now that I'm in the drivers seat, but I have lots stressing my brain
Feels insane

These folks be making hits, I'm one degree of separation
Cause these Homies play my gigs and play their strings for record labels
I'm evoking faith and grit to crush each goal and step I'm taking
I revoke my waiting, pissed from hunger, beat my chest. I'll take it

My DBZ rap went viral (kind of)
But how does that benefit my survival
That dilemma wrecked my mind and had me conflicted
Bummed, sitting
In the office thinking I should run. Wishing
I was brave enough to make a living with my tongue, kidding 
Myself (triplets) into believing that safety was better than following convictions

Some vision (yeah)
Dream is not an accurate depiction
Finger jabbing at the mirror
Laughing, asked my fear to

Hook:
Take a couple seats
(Sit Down
Be Humble, Be Humble) repeat

2.
I'm not in the market for accepting mediocrity
Success is the target but my definition's bothered me
Guess it's not the smartest to reject the Aristotle speak
Hope is just a waking dream, chase it while you're not asleep

I said I would do this. Got my MBA, my job was sweet
Strategy and spreadsheets, but yo, life is short and talk is cheap
I could die while I'm pulled over, I could die young honestly 
or I could live a hundred years regretting what my art could be 

Far removed from cocky me but still could flex on ya
was holed up on the labORAtory like Dex on em
Now the kid is out here hitting these cities like Sex In It
Sarah Jessica
No Bungie jumping, but Destiny

Feels clearer by the minute. Got a stake to grab
All the homies chase the bag
We be out here blazing tracks
I just made the leap of faith and I don't plan to take it back
I'm yelling this at my fear cause I know that I created that

Hook:
Take a couple seats
(Sit Down
Be Humble) repeat

Light trombone bars here

3.
At this point I've emptied the clip, gunned the engine it might be stalling
still got one in the chamber, explaining it's hyperbolic
you give me a day to rest, that's like granting a year of polish
of training to wreck the brains I'm still needing my fear abolished

But No longer have a doubt in me
Don't have other mouths to feed
I've just got this hunger like I've never had an ounce to eat
Crush my obstacles like the Viper's brain that the Mountain beats
Hunger's a philosopher's stone to improve my alchemy

No wonder I've evolved as I've grown, gurus surrounding me
When I come with questions, they're throwing me wisdom bountifully
Thank you. It's always me who's getting down on me
But people in my inbox say I've got this and they're proud of me

I've heard "no" too many times and proved those people incorrect
For me to hinder me by roasting my goals with my intellect
Pride kills. I let it move me to disrespect
What I've seen for so long as my future, tried to disconnect

Missing cocky Desh, Humble me's too philosophical
Humble me's returning to the focus, it's the prodigal
Humble me embraces all my failures, I acknowledge those
But still warns you of how hard I'm about to go!

Take a couple seats
