Say why must I deliver why do I give them the shivers Drive by the land of shiving me timbers know that I’m cold like early November late December I got my Eyes set on gold like an Olympic sprinter My heartbeat may play splinter song but I know it will never steer me wrong even though my mind still Roams I know truly is my center i’ve been shedding different shades of grays like the light changing throughout my days I been collecting different type of sun rays i’ve been tracking my mind through this Different phase I’ve been so confused what they say I’m stuck in my ways I see their delusion as I run through this maze it’s not an illusion I see the color of jaded rage as I their write the conclusion upon a page I’m not Confucius i’m something like a Sage semi me moving with age see I been moving the gauge see why they cannot gauge that’s why I disengage I can’t see them banging against my cage I’ve been strikeing like Johnny Cage Had to keep it mellow smoking my haze seeing the ghetto I dreamed about these days no falsetto my body filled with metal I’m still gonna blaze got my mind blinking from too many Jays got me thinking about better days Say why must I deliver why do I give them the shivers Drive by the land of shiving me timbers know that I’m cold like early November late December Eyes set on gold like an Olympic sprinter You can see it through my clothes I suppose tell me why I only see my foes like they some hoes that’s how it goes I’m in my mode untuck in the my diamonds and gold checking my flow most of them to speak to low i’m been doing the most feel like embody The ghost of the coast be my general boast The scenario shows it’s cold outside when it snows comparing the rain to my weight in gold only Midas knows A titan my armor shows the writings on the sleeve of my clothes i leave them wherever Mary goes I lead them to separate codes with clarity they chose i’m set at ease riding my highs and lows riding by you can see how they froze Still I rise I’ll take the lead my nose my Floetry wise it no surprise and everybody knows look at my eyes and see how I achieve my goals Say why must I deliver why do I give them the shivers Drive by the land of shiving me timbers know that I’m cold like early November late December Eyes set on gold like an Olympic sprinter
