Until It Breaks

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It goes a one, two, three

(I was born with) the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun

I don’t need to sweat it when the competition come

Original style like an 808 drum

So I don’t run the track

No, I make the track run

My mom taught me words, my dad built rockets

I put 'em both together now, tell me what I got

It’s a pretty smart weapon

I can shoot it, I can drop it

(But) learn to respect it ’cause you clearly can’t stop it like that

Yeah, it ain’t over, ’cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right

And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite

It really doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or if you’re right

’Cause once they get the teeth in, nothing really fights

Except for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose

And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes

But steady little soldier, I ain’t standing next to you

I’d be laying on the ground before you’re even in my view

Like that

Give me the strength of the rising sun

Give me the truth of the words unsung

And when the large bells ring, the poor men sing

"Bring me to kingdom come"

This is something for your people on the block to black out and rock to

Give you whatcha need like: "papa, who shot ya?"

Separate the weak from the obsolete, you're meek, I creep hard on imposters

And switch styles on the dime/quick witted ya’ll/quit tripping

I don’t have time for your crying

I grind tough, sucker, make your mind up

Are you in the firing squad or are you in the line-up?

Bang bang/little monkey man playing

With the big guns will only get you slain and I ain’t playing

I’m just saying / you ain’t gotta sliver of a chance

I get iller, I deliver/while you quiver in your pants

So shake shake down/money, here’s the break down

You can play the bank/I’ma play the bank take down

And no mistakes now/I’m coming to getcha

I’m just a banksy/you’re a brainwash, get the picture?

It’s like that

We swim against the rising waves

And crash against the shore

The body bends until it breaks

The early morning sings no more

So rest your head, it’s time to sleep

And dream of what’s in store

The body bends until it breaks

Then sings again no more

’Cause time has torn the flesh away

The early morning sings no more
