I've been hurting while traversing through this road of life
Started sharp and now I look like a corroded knife
Hit me with your best shot
Bring it, give me all you got
Unless, of course, you're only talk
But if you're bold, then strike
Holding on for life, 'cause I've been told to fight
Back in the ring and it's time again now to roll the dice
A sea of stares slicing through me, straight cold as ice
Facing forward's a panel of cats, old and white
I sweat and tremble, feeling fizzled as I hold the mic
It's looking like Ahmad Peace going home tonight
I'm a slave to the pain who was raised into hate
I guess the only recourse I got is to break into fame
Got a sinner on your hands, bring your priests and druids
Probably play my newest album just to beat me to it
You're weak and stupid
You underachieving, clueless, remedial nuisance
How many times we been through this
Zero clout for trying to run up on me
Quit fronting. I got your number, homie
Peep game, quit acting like you know me
I can't be stopped
Zero clout for trying to run up on me
Quit fronting. I got your number, homie
Peep game, quit acting like you know me
I can't be stopped
I don't wanna be another young brother who died with a dream
But all I really got going is a mic and a beat
Just to navigate society, we lie and we scheme
Feels as though we lack control over the life that we lead
I've got but a single friend, living in my head
Positive attributes that apply to me are borrowed straight from him
One night, he's like, there's a lecture, we ought to go together
Man, it's freezing out. My skin'll peel like some corroded leather
He told me, leather don't corrode, you should know this better
Always getting smart with me like his name is Kopell
But nevertheless, I tag and we go in the packed bleachers
Though struggling to find a seat, I'm just hoping the facts reach us
The speaker hits the stage, surrounded by black preachers
In the same religion practiced by slackers who snatched, beat us
And stabbed fetuses, claiming to follow that man Jesus
But I ain't as dumb as some
My rule of thumb is not to turn the cheeketh
Zero clout for trying to run up on me
Quit fronting. I got your number, homie
Peep game, quit acting like you know me
I can't be stopped
Zero clout for trying to run up on me
Quit fronting. I got your number, homie
Peep game, quit acting like you know me
I can't be stopped
Zero clout for trying to run up on me
Quit fronting. I got your number, homie
Peep game, quit acting like you know me
I can't be stopped
Zero clout for trying to run up on me
Quit fronting. I got your number, homie
Peep game, quit acting like you know me
I can't be stopped
