[Locksmith]
Let's have a conversation
Let's find a common combination
Between financial conservation
And seeking compensation
You know
Money and information is how you conquer nations
Whoever controls one - controls both
So what's the consolation?
A fabrication
A cynical aberration
A generation who can't fill out an application
Without an application
A fascist nation
Who shoots all minorities
The more you plead, the more you bleed
The more they feed authority
The morally right wing is [?]
We don't condone with [?]
Every tone elapsed
Is a blow
To a broken bone and fracture
The music game is the same;
They wanna control the stature
Prince and Micheal Jackson died
Who benefits and who owns the masters?
The puppeteers
Are pulling the public's ears
We let a murderer walk free
So he could auction off his gun to peers
It's like the system's corruption
Has reached another tier
We progress
Some of you rappers are pulling us back a hundred years
Nothing is fact
They're drumming up fear
[?]
And the scum wanna be
To be the new summit
The dumber you've done it
[?]
Immigrant laws [?]
Due eminent flaws they're closing us in
Claiming they' illegal aliens
While stealing the land
We've stolen from them
See capitalism is capping the visions
Of people who lack what is missing
Giving the equal advantage
To people that manage
[?]
Break for a city where tragedy strikes
Send out a tweet like you actually might
Really do something
It teaches you nothing
Just ten minutes later you'll have a new Iphone
People say they care for the [?]
See the lustful, some greater
[?] we are cutthroat
If you put on display
Then you see what I say
Is a threat to the whole constructo
People are [?] the fiend
Searching for meaning
We lead on the lean
[?] tell us
We're struggling for balance
They poison our dreams
I see it clear
I reject those ties
Learn how to breath
And expect your lies
[?]
Yo, listen
I'm not done
Look
And let it devour you wuss
'Cause you rather do listen to rappers who lie
Pay no allegiance to lyrics
The beat is the sh**
When you turn up the mute in your mind
[?]
I ain't the one like [?] in his prime
One person die
They blame the whole genre
They say the music [?] a crime
But maybe there's a point here
[?]
Think about the sh** that you're bumping it with
And the dudes that you choose to annoy here
Yeah
Maybe it's k**ing your soul
Maybe it's stuck in your veins
Maybe we'll never be free
Maybe you're happy in chains
Make some noise Team Backpack
[Cyhi the Prynce]
Team Backpack what's happenin'?
I said: "Team Backpack NYC what's happenin'!?"
Say: "Go Cyhi, go Cyhi, go!"
(Go Cyhi, go Cyhi, go!)
--
I got
Gas in the car
But the needle's still on E
[?]
I need twenty on pup three
Huh, me?
While you be on the ground like Bambi
In the concrete
With your feet covered in concrete
Off the coast of Palm Beach
While I'm twisiting this palm tree
Huh, speaking of poems
The Pistol's in arm reach
So that means
I'm running 'round with that b**h
Like it's prom week
I'm beyond street
Grew up around Jay
Like I'm Donnnn C
Huh, y'all acting like I wasn't gon' come prepared tonight
This ain't my first Gig
This more like the Terabyte
Since a kid
I've viewed life as a paradise
Y'all didn't get it:
I view life as a Pair-of-Dice
Try not to crap out
Bagging work with the strap out
Chopper on the floor
Gucci mane in the trap house
Some n***as tried to rop me
[?]
But some people lost their lives
So that ain't nothing to laugh 'bout
[?]
Profiting done properly
You owe me like Monopoly
n***a, I'm on your property
Bullet [?]
Shawty, you know the policy
Took a n***a' elbows
Now that's an arm robbery
Ghostface on camera
All you see is the wallabees
[?]
Y'all just getting guns
n***a, we own the archery
[?] me
If I shoot your a** from across the street
(Zoompf!)
[?] k**ing them softenly
William Shakespear told me to be or not to be
Thou shall not hate
That's always been my philosophy
Don't call me Cyhi no more
Call me Cyhocrates
Jay hit me up like:
"Cyhi I want the album"
Huh, and I don't even got a title on the album
I said Jay hit me up like:
"Tidal want the album", sh**
I don't even got a title or the album
Still f**ing with my ex
I feel like my brother Malcom
Imma have to turn m**m
I don't see no other outcome
I'm eating oysters with a b**h
[?]
Who knew this oyster on my wrist
Was an Aphrodisiac
My flow so NYC
I might bring [?] back
With the new Yeesy packs
And the green Luigi hat
But the album on the way
I ain't none of these rappers breathing me
Hiphop is soul music
Y'all didn't know I was half-Korean
