9 Mile

Settle down, settle down, y'all
I'd like to take the time to introduce to the stage this new young brother
I like this brother
He go by the name of Soul Burger

Cue the sermon
My daughter Carson just said dada for the first time
And Cali tryna get up and run the track
A-men

I like to call my self the God of rap
And all of y'all should call me that
I hit the studio and talk like that
Leave that motherfucker and feel like a fraud
In all honesty, I believe, the truth will set you free
Am I an inmate?
I got secrets Imma die with
Am I the greatest or an ingrate?
Am I a victim or a villain with a moral compass?
Did my dirt all by my lonely no accomplice
So when this shit hits the fan
I'll be sippin' Apothic Red, but I won't be wining
No boo-hoo's, more like (Vivi and Cici?)

Church on the move
Right or wrong my faith was written way before I started writing
This ain't a verse this an excerpt from a seance
Ain't really confrontational but I crave chaos
Mayday mayday
May lay may lay
Way off the chain like a jeweler's scale
Fuck all this gold on me
It ain't hard to tell like Sonic's little homie
Let my soul glow and despite the darkness I harness
You'd think these silver linings were straps to keep me from falling
Rhyming like I'm flying with angel wings, I just be crawling
Jesus Christ am I designed to compete?
Or am I just appallin'?
These days I rather work out my flaws than flex on y'all
A little somethings better than a whole lot of nothin' at all
Oh well, hope you read between the lines like when we be spelling wrong

Aye, ayo Arnie, Can I keep it going?

Uh, mic check one two mic check
Turn me up in this bitch
Can I- Can I talk my shit?
Can I keep it going real quick?
I am broke, I am on fucking drugs
Don't know shit, I'm paying rent but my babies mom
I take a 7.62 for Top Dawg
I did jump off a bridge on Del Amo Boulevard
Im blessed but question why God would have mercy on a junkie
Biggest lie I ever told was that it ain't about the money
Hopped out the rabbit hole, but now I'm really trippin'
I'm still standing here screaming: Fuck the whole system

Couldn't care any less if you judge me, bitch
You don't know what the fuck I did for this shit
And I don't know much, but I do know this
I got the game in a headlock
I'm like Draymond
You think you fuckin' with the squad just a little bit (no!)
Dream on, and then apply for your membership
Little bitch!
Shit ain't been the same?
Shit we was on, you woulda thought we was out our mind
Couple of tickin' time bombs don't step on our mine
That Me and Danny spent the block
We lost popeye but ? would mind me and belly with Nas
So Cain never really left my side
Now we just a fusion like Trunks and Gohan
Huey and Riley combined, knowledge and 9's

Bang
