Persistence & Confidence

An L is an L, just shake the stars – return swinging

I’m never compelled – to quit, that’s why I stay winning

Must always GO HARD, because assumptions’ll chump-ya

Common sense becomes enigmas and the simple will stump-ya

Like “Laws, how you speak sense, and still doing numbers?”

I reply “While holding ignorance, you’re over-encumbered.”

My flow is charismatic reading expands my flow

Hood wall-street, no broker or man handles my dough

My optimism and drive helps ya boy stay alive

Hard work and couple hoopties THEN a choice what you drive

It important to believe you can work and then achieve

Let em think you losing grips then you squeeze and let em grieve

Like my 12 hours in shifts, till I’m showered in chips

Let persistence alleviate stress or life devour you b*tch

Shameful speech, induced by pride, its all good

But your names f*cked up, we chill in a small hood.

::Laws/Chief:: Hook x2

“….if-battle counts….d-done wit Freaks….wasn’t, wasn’t battle-diss”

no kind of optimism here, a twelve year-old could rattl- this

a cata-lyst, to failure is the lack of persistence

quit-quick, and forensics couldn’t track your existence.

“I think I can……I think I “kin” flow”

You shouldn’t think, son you should just know

The mental cost of winnings ill, I address euphoria

Confidence and patience, parts of successes formula

Rap IS alive, “we boring her; so she lay till we finished”

Or till her confidence dies, and persistence diminish

But will it ever? Or is it eternal? The question stands

But there’s a difference between it and the CP invested in “mans”

Two kids at 21 and a wife at 23 it seems

But Imma get it done, 9-5 or plotting, any means

I never let a circumstance put fear in my heart

I rather grip it in my palms and steady tear it apart

Fear no man or emotion, just God and the ocean

“It’ll swallow you, and cease every motion”

holy composition, its my mission to teach

my verbal sick-condition, my extension of speech.
