D'Valents - Faceoff

FACEOFF
(D. ValentS)

Yes,
It been such pleasure being with you
All these years (nah mean)
One time long ago, my mans Franks
said Yo Valents
I kinda thought to myself,
I like that name, its a dope name
I'd like to welcome you to the end of DVS
And the beginning of D'Valents

Drop the puck
Line up my opposition
It me's that in my own way
My second and third edition
Can one ego gain control?
A permanent acquisition
Well let's see which one remains
As my final addition
I've had many names
My government is David James (Valents)
But back in the Chess,
The Natural took the reins
And built defense mechanisms,
with no antibodies,
Gordy Howe hat trickin em'
Game sick in him
Nat kept bagging hotties
Weekend sessions in the Bronx
Mondays made the kid tardy
Even when in class
My white ass was there hardly
Too busy perfecting my craft,
With the fine point sharpie,
Lived between the lines,
Cuz real life was not even perfect partly
So long son, peace dun
Nat you was a blast
You grew up and blew up
Way too freakin fast
Next verse, lets split the D
Now Nat yous on offense
Since you could never out defend that dude DVS

What a fitting third period,
To have the captain come up big
And he deserves to be the player of the game,
In the last game
It's meant so much to this city,
And what a great play it is here,
The heart and soul of this team and franchise,
This guy is the blood and guts
As time goes by, and I'll tell ya what
It comes to end sooner than you really think
And this is the kinda situation,
That there going to cherish for the,
Rest of their lives,
This is a human moment
I don't know what to say

This a faceoff
So DVS time to go boy (bye-bye)
Cuz under that Valents mask
You like a Caster Troy
My charismatic nemesis
At a precipice
A foot in and one foot out that life,
With such recklessness
DVS it's been a privilege
But I gotta det ya image (bye-bye)
You like bottle of that 92 vintage
Rhythm n blue
In ya whale tales
Money green nah mean
Cuz your hustle
Cuz your hustle prevails
This for the Hart, it's beat
Helped hone my skill
DVS wore the colors
As a team we was ill
Long moved on but raps
Feeling like she's mine still
You did me wrong, gone baby gone,
We've just lost that thrill
DVS fell hard, for life he's NHL
Gets native homegrown love
Hang his banner in the XL
Up in the rafters among
The greatest CT rappers
Franchise player like Francis
It's time you and my camp calls you quits

The emotions at an all time high right now
These people have worshiped this man, over the years
Because he has put every thing he has into this organization
There was a time when he went away
They brought him back,
They brought back so much tradition,
Crowd continues to enjoy and relish this moment,
The final moments, and every one of us
Feeling the same emotional tug on our hearts

You D'Valents now leave DVS on ice,
Body check his mic against the boards,
Show em you just as nice,
But as D'Valents
This was a line brawl but my penalty
Is end fake identities once and for all
D'Valents ya age
Match that on thing on your hip
And with ya permit even your hammers
(too legit 2 quit)
No more multiple women, who you kidding,
You gon die a hero and a family man,
You at peace with chillin
You ain't in these streets,
You ain't obsessed with beats
You doing drop offs and buckling car seats,
But you a wiser dude, DVS we through
All along it's Valents who advised you (yeah)
Mo cars, Mo clothes, Mo jewels
Valents wont facilitate
Besides DVS would bankrupt
A & J's whole estate
Next thing you know he'd end up
Like Bobby drop off's by eight
Told you on NC, steer ya destiny
But you can't force ya fate
You can't let cycles of bad relationships repeat again
You're daughter ending up some dudes late night medicine
You lived this, so give them that game to win
Ya son with flowing pains writing just to stay sane
You gon let DVS live ya life in vain
Nah honorably discharge from this tour of duty
You next level now it's okay act bougee
Raise my stick to young in's that spit, but time has come
DVS will rise again, stay cool, and wait for the midnight sun

After this is over,
I want you to take this face
And burn it
