Cole bring light-skinned back You kick it like hacky sack, I ain't going back to that For every scar on Seal's face, I can spit a rap to match They nervous like a suburban jumping the curb And the sh** I spit is stuck on they mind like hodgy wearing his turban I was told to go harder, and try and touch the dollar Mo' dots be on they a** than Laurence Fishburne' daughter Artists hard as the hardest part the part a gotta martyr us And Martin must Guess I'll dumb it down we all smarten up [Verse 5: Kendrick Lamar] If you look inside my mind you'll probably see atomic bomb Loaded with explosive grenades holding dope rhymes And it's potent You never heard of heroic flow more divine As a poet I know I'm the don Like sunrise and I owe it to family genes The Albert Einstein in the pocket of dungarees And I'm dunking on Shaq with ease It's a lay up every time I stay up I'm in the studio the time they wake up, but wake up It gets worse There's not a weapon that can prosper The prognosis of a sick rapper that can rock ya whole roster [Verse 6: Brittany Street] Brittany Street, yea, time told on itself Kinda happy here to see this, I'm a actual genius Ninth, I'm on a pedestal lift a finger when it's needed A genius makes no mistakes So it's cool I had to wait push the bull to the side And keep my power in the safe Now I release it in this room Even if you don't believe you'll catch a spirit in this place I'm a actual revolver When it comes back around hope it's me for the take I'm a thief for this space, I want it all or nothing It's never beef for this cake And I'm the beauty and the beast and on this beat I will shake Damn slow down Street, naw n***a this my pace You need actual proof, I'm the actual stakes Past the [?] around and tell them super genius on it's way Brittany Street [Verse 7: The Kid Daytona] What a beautiful day it is, cruisin' to Mayfield In a ride that glide like [?] when he was hoopin' in [?] Living proof for the ‘mazing is Scooped up your broad now my palm on the cranium Gettin' dome, indoor stadium Rocky a** roll when I'm all in your [Adrian?] You must s** at life, I'm on the cusp of hypes Unattainable to most, safe to say I've touched the sky Delante West you muthaf**in' [bride?] Show some respect for the toughest on the mic Daytona, paint images like [?] from [?] What you hearin' is quotables You never get it if you slow to move Success smell sweet like when roses bloom Defeat like see-saw in a open [?] I know some goons that keep the strap on like [brand new?] bowling shoes [?] those them dudes I keep close for hoes like you No lenience for idiots, my five thoughts beyond smart He's a muthaf**in' genius [Verse 8: Laws] Yo they mocking me when they should be copying their Laws Knowledge is forever but novelty wears off Like names on a wall, and fade like hairlines They gave mine airtime This is for the Judas and call me Jesus in person and say he's just OK He jock my colour quality [?] my genius is great So I'mma meet the chicks he want and steadily strong arm ‘em Make ‘em glow like silver and readily Long John ‘em It's not a problem, or one that I can't solve They wanna stop to talk sh** man but I can't stall In this modern warfare they say that I can't but I can't recall Poppin' off with my back to the wall Is being a genius being a capital G In this day [?] avoiding it after seeing it Either it's something that you can't reach Or it's something that your whack mentors can't teach Genius [Verse 9: Sundown] Knowledge connoisseur, genius provocateur The genius schizophrenic, scribble my mental image Replace the inkblots, graph a genius plot Off the charts I mark my territory Glory been [?] Banner in the lab before the gamma radiation got to damage him You bore me, what of Arabia?
