(intro:chicagozer0311)
Yeah
Apex mentality
Climbing out the gravity
Surmount
Check
Promoted peace valiantly
Overcoming my inherently ominous reality
Surmount
Check…..
[verse 1:chicagozer0311]
Ascended the echelon, pressurized enviroments
We’re maintaining resiliency was a requirement
Battle rapping in chicago i was peddling venomous syllables, pinnacle mental, i’m clinical
Breaking the barriers, digital, lyrical, never empirical
In da second city where dibs could be potentially life altering
Riding the l never faltering kept my head down knew my potential
Rebuking turmoil and protecting my inner peace was essential
Survived gang wars and shoot outs bullets busted through da frunchroom jag offs were mild sauce chicken heads clucking again walls paper thin the hawk blew through da two flat hypothermia try to attain composure germane
Jewels to get pop with da homies dipped sammiches getting in trouble escobar wore the jacket for me
Chi town the media was flodgin on us
Called us chiraq said we weren’t mentally stable or intact
Just hoping we’d overreact
Sent ice here documentaries on vice here big back academics promoting violence and drill rap kicking up turf wars
Rattled civilians and ogs to their cores
Humanitarian efforts are a ruse they abuse and miss use the poors
Drafted to wars or homeless chained to decades of decadence trapped doors
Chicago is the greatest city we have more to offer and don’t need the nations pity and i’ll merch it!
Overhyped +n+lytics from media +n+lyst +n+lyzing prioritizing media corporate funding and profit shares with side eyes and business organizations glares
Two system political party but both wings are attached to the same bird
I’ll explain this through spoken word! rebloodican amd democrips violence is more prevalent in the goverment than in the street because they have no checks and balances and more power than you only checks that they sign their names too
(chorus)
Know your self worth
Banish the curse the burden of the earth
Rise up again
Rise up again
Rise up again
Never surrender never give up up up up
[verse 2:chicagozer0311]
Most terrifying experience wasn’t witnessing violence or praying for gun fire silence
Most terrifying experience was becoming a parent
The anxiety of the responsibility did i possess the ability to raise an individual with proper decisional ethics morales and discipline
Prayed to god with a wish again
The one area i never want to repudiate i often ruminate on my past porous decisions
Nightmares ptsd visions internal dislodge the dialouge arguments and emotional development damaged by past visions
Courage understanding and inspiration are drawn here it beckons i answer the call there
Be the best version of myself for my offspring spouse and society
Uplift culture be of that variety
From the windy city an ember blew across the planes of the earth survivors guilt once clouded my judgment questioning my self worth tortured soul battled depression since birth
Had to destroy my ego and develop my personality
Avoided becoming a statistic took chances failed got up again opportunities
I risked it
That ember grew into a wild fire over time fueled by each syllable verb noun in each rhyme
The fire engulfed the midwest over the landscapes body that is mine
Chicagozer0311 the legacies just begun even if my career is done
(chorus)
Know your self worth
Banish the curse the burden of the earth
Rise up again
Rise up again
Rise up again
Never surrender never give up up up up
[verse 3:chicagozer0311]
The legacy is helping those in mental anguish
Teaching them how to cope and vanquish personal demons giving life meaning and reasons
It resonates tempting fates and destiny’s
Show how to persevere overcome achive and belive in themselves
How to use anxiety, depression and self hatred as motivation
How to overcome obstacles with persuasion
How to live life for eachother be good to your sister and brother
Promote peace and unity for one another
When i wast standing in engles in chi town with chains on a backwards cap holding a mic down never thought my words would ever be more than just some clever rhymes
Now my lyrical prowess is so heated its chemical inhibitors could bust down enzymes
Had a 1.7 gpa in high school had a 4.1gpa in college (you do the math)
Psa do better with the public school system
Maybe we need to adhere to each individuals needs and list em
Adhd had to work twice as hard
Found relief battle rapping in the playground yard
(chorus)
Know your self worth
Banish the curse the burden of the earth
Rise up again
Rise up again
Rise up again
Never surrender never give up up up up
(outro)
The morale of this story is simple if i can make it anyone can make it
One+ be authentic never fake it
Two+ go with isnticnt don’t overthink it
Three+ accept your flaws set boundaries and laws
Four+ belive in yourself mental health is more valuable than monetary gain n wealth
Five+take care of your home protect your family at all cost give love and respect to elders in the family before their lives our lost you can’t take back time once its gone
Had to pour my soul out on these pages for you in the form of song
The dye based solution from my quill is the hemoglobin blood foce made up of my precarious thoughts fortitude and will
Neurological shock at my words cold flush overtakes like deaths chillll
(that’s a wrap on rap pack it up… i just hope they miss me as much as i’ll miss them maynggg)
