Leaf Erikson - Parable of the Weeds

Parable Of The Weeds (first verse)
Self-evaluation necessary (ahhhh), deep cleanse and a self-quarantine
Watch ya step kid (watch ya step kid), took it on myself to intervene
Really felt good to erase those (erase those), contacts that thought they had a say so (a say so)
I told all them cats they betta lay low (lay low), I monitor my own biz and payroll (and payroll)
Connect those dots like latitude (latitude), gotta pay respects, that's gratitude (rrr-ahh)
Used to battle dudes, mental modus operandi when tryin' to build my name and validity
Among those trending to the level of the mountain top, cuz it remains Butter Made to the casket
drop
This is from my head, straight to the heart, self-motivated I'm my own benchmark
(hook)
I took my own medicine that's self-dedication, Laid my own path that's self-preservation
I took my own path that's self-dedication, With so much goin' on it's hard to stay patient

(second verse)
Destroy And Rebuild from the Escobar status, It Was Written, well-crafted, elements of Illmatic
Still The Main Ingredient, the power of the pen
The Resurrection of the essence that lives within, the Soul By the Pound from a... ground zero
To exec. status... monumental
The push and the pull, the give and the take, the business, the industry, crowd participates
In the next motion to choose the key figures, no need to have your decision made by the media
Cuz YOU have the power but let them report it, but call em out if they choose... to distort it
And morph it to something unoriginal, because the self-evaluation, the power is in YOU
And plus it's in us, don't lust for attention, most definite we do this in rememberance
(hook)
I took my own medicine that's self-dedication, Laid my own path that's self-preservation
I took my own path that's self-dedication, With so much goin' on it's hard to stay patient
