pō'edik - Letter to the Snakes

They say there's magic in pain
So I wait on my serenity
Hug on my friends and show love to all my enemies
No competition
Seems like the throne is for the taking
Eyes bloodshot
Soul is naked
Can never say I hid behind some fake shit
Cause if you wearing masks then you might as well be faceless
Can't think for themselves a bunch of sheep running nameless
Fake bitches talking shit want me to give them facelifts
If you crossed me you ain't ever been the same since
Swear they doing better I ain't been convinced
Bullshit on your lips how that taste?
Can't get my name off your tongue now how that taste?
Wasn't saying none of these things to my face
Never bite the hand that gave you confidence and faith
You see people treat trust like currency
One moment it's worth something
And then it's worth nothing
Who I am now is better than the person that you becoming

This is my letter to the snakes
Only fulfilled when they eating off your plate
Venom in they veins swear they bleed just like you
Lended you a helping hand never thought you was the type to
Run off and pretend like I ain't ever revive you
In moments of uncertainty, I was there to remind you
Mama taught me to always show love to the weak
There's some people you gone love even though ya do not speak
You only as real as the company that you keep

So let this be a lesson
Wolves walk in sheep's clothing approach at your own discretion
I rather be happy and alone then surrounded by people with bad intentions
Enter rooms full of smiles but you could still feel the tension
Know some people that get mad whenever my names mentioned
A bunch of nobodies wishing there was somebody
In this world who'd just give them some attention

I can't just fuck with anybody
I wanna know the deal
If you bout it
Come and show me
I wanna know you're real
I can't just fuck with anybody
I wanna know the deal
If you bout it
Come and show me
I wanna know you're real

Cause snakes in the grass never wanna see me growing
Love is better than all that envy you be holding
Onto
Karmas gonna haunt you
Why acting like you
You don't know no better
Snakes in the grass never wanna see me growing
Love is better than all that envy you be holding
Onto
Karmas haunt you
Why acting like you
You don't know no better

Fake bitches talking shit
This is my throne
That bitch
Carved on my tombstone
