afterlife - scene iii lyrics

[about the song]

[intro – sampled]
alright, is it recording yet?
aye…
aye…
bounce!

[verse 1]
there’s no escaping me
no playing me
i do what i say
no changing me
i know you’ll have to do a double take on me
when i hit with the track then i’ll reign supreme

take a bar to the face, point blank to the ground
when you get back up, yeah, i’ll pound you back down
i don’t need no fists ’cause the lyrics so profound
so tell me, are you down, d-d-d-down?
(oh!)

got a million things on my mind like static
fading in and out, shut down like magic
lyrics hit harder than a bullet train, haptic
words flyin’ out of my mouth like spastic
i don’t really know why i’m flexing with this flow
i don’t really know why i’m doing this for show
i don’t really know if these words are my own
i don’t really know if this another me, though
gunnin’ for the ground, with the seven thirty-eight
word per second though, i don’t mean to agitate
eyes on the prize, yeah the word ain’t outta shape
tellin’ you the truth, yeah i’ll give it to you straight
hop up in a foreign, everyone’ll know my name
we be burning rubba, you call that a figure-eight
don’t even try to copy, you know you can’t imitate
where’s the old me, have you ever heard of change?
(quit actin’ up!)

i’ll be flipping intermission
when i’m comin’ out the vision
i’ll be making the decision
while i’m smashing the acrylic
take a moment to envision
and i’ll hit with the precision
i don’t need the indecision
‘fore i hit with the collision
the feelin’ that you missin’
is it all because of distance
it had always kept you wishin’
that you never were so distant?
don’t you really ever listen?
to the shots that i ain’t missin’
yeah, the flow is unforgivin’
and these songs are my condition

[chorus]
i’m the last thing that you see at night
when you go to sleep
i’m the last thing that you see in life
still dead you feel the heat
i’m the last thing that you’ll see tonight
that sight is bittersweet
i’m the first thing in the afterlife
neck deep in concrete
yeah!

i’m takin’ aim, pick a name
at everybody in the game
as soon as i’m done
this’ll all be all aflame
puttin’ shame to your name
yeah, this just another game
say these rappers got this talent
but to me, they’re all the same
don’t mess with ‘cloud rappers
’cause they all sound all the same
how you makin’ profit
on a platform that ain’t payin?
all the fake stacks
’cause we know that you ain’t making
everything you post up
man, why you always faking?

[interlude – spoken word]
you thought this was over? (haha)
you ain’t seen nothin’ yet

[verse 2]
(3, 2, 1, go!)
burstin’ out the gates
when i pull up in a wraith
a couple years from now
you’ll just be a basket case
i bet you wish that anyone
had ever heard your name
i’ve sold books on every continent
it’s just another game
callin’ me a wannabe
you’re just threatened, honestly
dropping like a prophecy
i’m all done with modesty
this is my new policy
don’t like me, you’re just novelty
stop with your moronity
you know i am the prodigy

half-c-cked, half-shot
goin’ like a dreadnaught
bottle to the head
colson baker on the spot
spitting these bars
tryna hit up on the charts
lying to my face
ain’t no goin’ through my heart
(oh!)

[bridge]
can you rap like this?
when i rap like this
everybody goin’ crazy
on a track like this
better match like this
when i rap like this
i be goin’ for your throat
when i fly like this
i mean all the disrespect
when i rap like this
man, — your rap gods
on a track like this
i just rapped like this
way faster than his
and i’m goin’ like i’m crazy
on a track like this
(woo!)

[verse 3]
yeah, i know that you’re nervous
you really deserve this
still takin’ the time
’cause you need some lip service
now here’s some lip service
i complete the circuit
i’m lightin’ you up
burnin’ up like a furnace
too much ice on the surface
how you haven’t heard this?
slow down and back up
i mean all that in earnest
it’s under the surface
now what is your purpose
i am the preacher
i’m givin’ a sermon
sit down and listen
while all these words glisten
prodigy risen
put the key in ignition
don’t need to audition
rap legends envision
don’t got no conditions
so why you still trippin?

i’m takin’ aim, pick a name
at everybody in the game
as soon as i’m done
this’ll all be all aflame
puttin’ shame to your name
yeah, this just another game
say these rappers got this talent
but to me, they’re all the same
don’t mess with ‘cloud rappers
’cause they all sound all the same
how you makin’ profit
on a platform that ain’t payin’?
stop flexing fake stacks
’cause we know that you ain’t making
everything you post up
man, why you always faking?
(word up!)
