Memento

My lyrics are still astoundin' you
Keep a small circle
Just the people who stuck around with you
And still cut it down a few
I tried to be a fan
But these people you lookin' up to
Of course they'll be lookin' down at you
(damn) , couldn't allow them to
Fuck givin' 'em flowers while they here
I kill 'em off
Then I gladly give 'em they flowers due
That's what power do, this man's enormous
And never been a stranger to
Shinin' like Danny Torrance, huh
Ran's performance, a fresh thesis
This from a nigga that's been tatted with
The ink from the chess pieces
Best secret's never been told
Since seven years old i been tortured
Ain't no remorse for these benevolent souls
(no) i swear I seen the Devil in clothes
He said, "Ain't nobody
Livin' that's innocent, nigga ball out
The bottom's like the top
I'll be there when everything falls out
Forget ya inhibitions
No virgins live in this whore house"
(it's a fact)
It's like Cosby walkin' through Morehouse
You sleepin', I'll be tempted
To victimize you, i mystify you
Hero to these strong black males
Who failed in the system, lied to
(let's go)
Been a rebel, so why would this surprise you?
Group home toddler with two chrome monsters
I remind 'em of Gorgeous Gangsta
In his two tone Boxster (Stack)
Full blown mobster
I don't know niggas who fear cases
From a era where you probably
Got killed in them staircases
Our Father, most niggas don't share graces
Prayer hands under ya pic's what you
Get in some rare cases
Look in the eyes of these
Tatted up tear faces
Even a snake can appear gracious
Yeah, every bar full of knowledge
I went to prison
Told my kids I went off to some college
I can offer you solace
Everything that glitters ain't gold
Watch ya foes
Only the meek can fall for mirages
