Song Lyrics:
Now rappers are silicone, You're silly be gone/
I'm breaking out of my shell like a snail with a jetpack on/
Launched decades back, when i took my first breath/
I'm that sniper that never aims but I'm always on target//
Slim Q's gone, call me Rob Banks when I'm in my zone/
Added Mofaya in my veins, no chill/
If you owe me this might the your last chance to pay me back/
Rip your soul out of your body in this Mortal Kombat/
'Cause I'm done with you, you and you/
'cause you never listen to understand but only to respond/
Now look at what you've done? I'm that monster you spawned/
Not politically correct but the reality you try to escape//
Nobody needs to tell me I'm great. I've always been/
I've been the first but got no acknowledgements/
Accolades handed out but none handed to me/
I'm that alcoholic in the bar screaming I've got a Law Degree//
I'm the most famous unknown person in SD/
A myth, an urban legend like Kayser Soze/
Not your usual suspect but I pack hits in my duffel bag/
Misunderstood 'cause I blaze and I don't conform to the norm//
My views were skewed, now I refuse to be used/
Abused, ego bruised. seeking that ego boost/
Spray it on, display it all for the whole world to see/
I'm a beast, that none of y'all can contend with//
I'm that taste of fire only the tough can stomach/
I don't think you're crazy enough to test me at this moment/
A thousand degrees celsius of heat all up in my veins/
They say I'm glowing, I feel like I'm about to explode//
But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm not too far gone/
Maybe I can still piece back these scattered pieces of me/
Puzzled. But maybe I'm still worth a Lilangeni/
Major volcanic activities I feel like I'm about to erupt//
Maybe I'm not all that but dammit I'm great/
'Cause the blood of kings runs deep in my veins/
My feet couldn't carry me far enough from the spotlight/
'Cause I rhyme tight, emit heat, and raze streets 'cause I blaze kid//
I'm a wordsmith. I sharpen words to cut deep/
I've always been the last on my list when I should have been first/
I carried the torch for Swazi MCs but I guess it didn't shine bright/
I'm feeling like Kanye searching for answers but no one's got them//
I lost my worth along the way, now on the verge of gaining it back/
This is my recovery, oxygenation of my lungs/
Feeling overdressed in the clothes of a beggar/
I'm the naked truth, translate my name and stop the hate now//
Look at what you've done. Now look at what you've done/
But why am I blaming the world of who I've become/
I'm sitting at the back and there's no one at the wheel/
I've got to search through my soul for my recipe to win//
God, is the only solution/
Pray more, do more, that's my daily resolution/
I see the whole clan in my son's eyes/
A hope for the brighter future I've got to create with these spoken words//
This is the reinVENTion
