Fentanyl (feat. Ren)

Conscious rap was vibin but they said it wasn’t sellin

So instead of Tribe the Questin was for highs I guess I get it

But we sold our de la soul's

And reassigned the proper metrics

Violent rap survived and Darwinized the profits, zealots

Survival o the fittest

Trade your bars for gems

And you’ll be shinin that’s the realest

In this climate of addiction, style

Big Pharma is the illest now

As long as pills are fillin

You ain’t really gotta feel the sound

The world is full of Juice

And while you floatin’

You been fin to drown

How many rappers out here missin now

But they sell you with this vision and this fear of missin out

The industry’ll fuck us

So we follow what is trendin

Brag about these hollow tips

But it’s all hollow tip the pen in

I lace my verse with fentanyl

And lean into attention

Toe tags for the mentions

Body bags for what they spendin

While they braggin we descendin

From the ground

We all descendants now

Sinners don't sleep in this broken town

Tradin their souls for some golden brown

Feel the release

Come back down

But when I'm comin up

Killers on the city streets baggin it up

Crooks and addicts with habits get rushed

We livin in vein

Just to end it all

And I spent it all

On that

Fentanyl

My cousin was a pitcher

On that curve he got that scholarship

On campus he’s the man

Throwin heaters he was hot as shit

But then he hurt his arm

Senior year his time to prove it

Started takin pain killers

So he could play and keep it movin

Scouts watchin

Couldn’t lose em

So he took more

And he kept usin

Fore he knew it

He’s abusin

Fast balls and two seams

Too clean

But now he’s losin, wait

Drug test he failed so they kick him off the team

He tried to kick the habit

But he’s mad that he had lost his dreams

It’s sad but he got off the Lean

But all it takes is one reminder

In his mind he couldn’t help it

He was tryna finally settle

Midnight he went outside

He was fighting with his devils

"One hit," he told himself

"It’ll help me through this hell

I know I’m sick and I need help

But one hit man what the hell"

So he lit it then he took it to the face

But as the story goes you know that fentanyl was laced

Sinners don't sleep in this broken town

Tradin their souls for some golden brown

Feel the release

Come back down

But when I'm comin up

Killers on the city streets baggin it up

Crooks and addicts with habits get rushed

We livin in vein

Just to end it all

And I spent it all

On that

Fentanyl

Took my heart you took my fucking life

You took my pride you took my mind

Took who I am and turned to vice

You took my fam I burned the price

And now I stand on murdered time

And all my plans have turned to ice

I burn in fire

Build this pyre higher

I’m wired in this dopamine

Get higher still a broken fiend

Supplier of the hopeless dreams

When it’s all smoke

The only rope’s the one that chokes

Will they remember me

Take all my memories

And light them on this fire

Fire for the crooked dealer

He who packaged hate

Fire for that greedy villain

He who had it laced

Fire for my future

That look on my fathers face

My mother's still in tears

My cousin he’s too far away

When they told me to get help and yes I tried

I tried again but in the end

We’re all just vane

And in the end

It came to veins

And in the end I died in vain

And in the end

I tried to

Fuck it
