King Book - Death of a Villain

Yeah
Shoutout Daniel Dumile for the intro and the inspiration
This is my tribute

Yeah

This beat got more soul than a sock with a hole
Never knew how much DOOM's death would take a toll
Till I saw one day while I was scrolling on the gram
Favorite hip-hop page posted a letter from his fam and it read
"RIP Dan, you will be missed" damn
Why does it always have to end like this?
Another living legend crossed off the list
Had me at my wits' end
Never met him but it felt like I lost a friend
Cause I get him and I know what's it like
To be the outcast who only grab the mic while wearing a mask
Nabbed a flask, made discovery my task and at last
Found the man who spell his name ALL CAPS
I remember 2020 late February
The very first time I heard that scary vocabulary
When he was droppin' them Rhymes Like Dimes
Committin' lyrical crimes
I was tryna read behind the bars and between the lines
Just to find what made this beautiful mind click
Intricate clever lyrics
Once you hear it, it heals your spirit
I had this fear that took me far away where I had no feelings
Who woulda ever thought heroes could also be villains?
Helping me reveal my ceiling
Now I'm sick like penicillin
Found so many fakes, I killed a million chameleons
Now I'm reeling back like, "Kick it"
That's what I do now
Chop the beat up like chicken covered in Kung Pao
Keep the crown staying razor sharp
Cause I'm cousin to Kung Lao

Yeah, that's my mixtape Logic vibes man
RIP DOOM
