Seven - 21 HRS

I been a problem and the one to solve em, I feel like Solomon
I'm solemn till among the fallen
I built a castle of gold, you see my fortress polished
You see my fortune solid
I keep my head regardless
VII been a legend since the Heavens split to let em down
Now I'm raining lead on every head who feel they better now
Especially when the bread around
I'm heavy-headed when I dare to wear the crown
I felt the thorns sinkin when I rose to make a better now
How they figure they gon be the ones to come and down a nigga?
I've been drownin in a pool of talent since they found a nigga
And I say found cuz ain't nobody made me
I came to be by divination, I just look like I'm my mama baby
I just hide among the mortals til it's time to rise
I been crackin skulls open sippin cyanide
I took a loss that really almost made me die inside
Laughed it in its face, became a monster on a diatribe
Never been the type to tap dance on Tik Toks
Titillating on Twitter for label heads to get rich off
Trick stop, this hip-hop
Turnin tricks ain't a business model
My Timmy Turner wishes sittin in a whiskey bottle
Now that's a swig of the truth
The only way I change reality with pen and a booth
I put my pen in the plans pining for pineal glands opening up in advance
So they can get what I do
Been stiller than most museum exhibits
I spent my nights picking fights with older memories and planning out a candid finish
It stands to reason that I'll miss a couple benchmarks
But weight be movin up and down, ambition keep me sandwiched in em
Until I pass em, it can't get off my chest
But still I'm the best
I just cannot conceal I'm depressed
And still imma flex
Exploding through and killing my reps
I'm reppin hard as anybody, I just feel it's a debt
Chicago had to shape me, I was a 90s baby
Among the latter, but that guarantees my life was crazy
I ain't no Superman, but that's how daddy kindly raised me
So it's some memories I probably wouldn't mind erasing
That made the inner g I haven't tried to hide in ages
That made an inner peace that only came with time and patience
That made an inner beast that only calms when I be pacing
Cuz I know plenty niggas only call when I be stationed
Somewhere that's convenient in a state of mind that's kind, and face it
Really that's probably you
Anxious, but I'm not a fool
Take that time you leave me with to love, adjusting how I move
Least I know I got the tools, I can't share em all with you
But I just sit and watch who callin me they bro and family
I understand they probably not the ones who understand me
I recognize that everybody ain't gon understand that
I know that they don't know the difference between pain and planning
I know loving has a limit, so does living
Losing made me stronger, that's been true from the beginning
Calling truces with my demons bought me time that's quickly thinning
Like the darkness in this room, I feel it spinning
