[Intro] It's a tale of lonely soldiers who hopelessly act so hopeless We take advantage of the lives we have and only they know this Comittin' crimes in street grime just to pa** time Spittin' raw lines in the form of co*ky rhymes When I say the word "thug," what comes to mind is hip hop and rappin' Drugs, guns, money, crime, hoes, swag, and scrappin' Thug has been redefined over the past fear years So, here's a couple questions that I ask you here [Verse 1] When I say the word "thug," what's the first thing that comes to mind? Probably n***as saying they're dope when they spit lines n***as who rob gas stations for the sole thrill One who k**s a clerk with a place in his heart out to you He steps out of the darkness and avoids the harshness And controls his actions to be a man who starts these Commotions to have us all make a change Like Pac, we've gotta take our path and make it rearranged When you ignored the advice, you became the bean spiller You spoke, now you're broke and formed to a serial k**er I k** and sin for fun when I rose from the concrete Nothing but my sk** to rap within God's reach So I ask Him, "Why do thugs sin?" Because we have to guide ourselves through our pain to some day win We always fought solely to avoid our life's struggle But it's too much change to where they'd k** for another We sin to stay the same, ignore change with aggressiveness But now you're spending all your time trying in restlessness You rap with gimmicks solely for the flashiness, see It's pa**ion I seek with Pa**ionate MC In my defense, this whole game is deadly and lethal Don't let the story commence, it will k** too many people [Verse 2] You see, when I write lyrics, I'm at a major risk Of my ideas and styles being stolen by a plagiarist The day I rise, I'll be demonized by the people who stole My life and everything I am, even including my soul Get your own life and get your own damn career I hope when you hear me,, you fear me and leaver my life here This is my legion of darkness in my hands If you keep on stealing my soul, I'll never advance I make a loud noise as I rise up, we all look around What was that sound? Hellbound is shaking the ground I'm the Fire Lord without a crown with major powers now I can cause an earthquake when I humbly take a bow You stole my soul when my powers were unleashed Now I seek to see those demonic flames released You didn't commit to meet me half way before it fades You signed a lease so stick with me as we clash our blades Battling a real thug causes a chain reaction It makes us all break out and be seen in action Now we're flashing as if we're the main attraction Merely a fraction of the backstabbing thugs are still clashing In a flash, I'm back as the trash that I am Battling these fakers, they're down to their final plan The fakeness spreads through in contamination I decree a proclamation to stop the nonsense, take an examination [Verse 3] Take a closer look for these n***as who were shook Redefining the grime by just stepping out of line Crimes only define half of what we do Thugs only do it because of their struggle, including me too Bad decisions, good intention - that just ends the interception It takes perception to survive an intervention These demons intervene as it seems that they act really mean They act fake, I just can't take it, it's just so demeaning Somehow I'm still gleaming more than Stephen King's Shining I demand to see the reason why you keep on dimly lying? You claim it was because you were barely surviving Like Pinocchio, your nose grows bigger... You spoiled it YOU SOILED IT... I'm sorry, was that bad timing? Nope, the definition of MCs is k**ing headless pigeons Like the people who act weak and are too scared to fight to d**h But their stories can be explained from right to left Stay wide awake and never close your eyes You can rest your eyes all you want the day you die But you've gotta realize that you're not a thug, you won't survive Out in these streets until the day that our souls collide You taunt me, demons haunt me, I'm constantly annoyed But now that I've busted you, your demons will be destroyed You'll never be what you're not again until we reach the end Of the chapter because you ignore the message that I send [Outro] Now let me ask you again, what is the definition? Amended spirits of your life makes bad thoughts that you invision You take advantage of what you've got ungratefully You lack hope of survival - you act unfaithfully We fight for what's right and withstand what we suffer Learn not to hang onto what you lost, you must find another Focus on what you have - a path to take as it fades We grab our blades to end the labyrinth for the aftermath then we wait Define a thug...
