MAN DOWN

Ay came through with a pep in my step and I reckon y'all niggas aged My eyes are flaming red I done resurrected with rage It's pressure 'pon your neck the bird is out it's cage God made a way look at burdens that I escaped I'm center stage, I raised the stakes They got the time now You know how the saying goes when they come 'round What goes up must come down and we ain't going with them Pick up your shoes Pick up the slack now Spent most my days thinking if I would ever Live outside the background Now I pull strings they out to get me Another day another man down I pick up my shoes, I'm pick of the litter I'm pushing the limit, I pick up the slack now The glitters ain't gold Look around where we roam through In the land of the broken It's a lot we was prone to Quickest sand was engulfing But intact was my soul, been dispatched I'm evolving nigga searching for solitude While most niggas fold I'm calm and composed Stopped the politicking with niggas Know they voters is frauds I'm often hit with epiphanies I can't be product of system I pray to God know he listen Won't seal my fate with some kisses nigga nah Cause we ain't got time to keep off our toes The type of vigor make you consider throwing the towel I'm in the mood to make y'all remember Go on a prowl, sharpen my sword Declaring a war on foes and cowards yeah So pass me the torch, thrones and crowns This the voice of the future Deny it, rooster sounds The Bronze Age forever This a God given level, on a high like crescendo What my mind-state resemble nigga ahhh Pick up your shoes Pick up the slack now Spent most my days thinking if I would ever Live outside the background Now I pull strings they out to get me Another day another man down I pick up my shoes, I'm pick of the litter I'm pushing the limit, I pick up the slack now
