prelude Lyrics

I talk to myself when I'm in need of a friend

Don't call this farewell, I know I'll see you again

Dominoes fell as a means to an end

All it brought me was hell, no reprieve or amends

Decades later, they still claimin' Nas and Hov the greatest

I guess that fact alone kinda shows their greatness

It's all subjective, they keep stressin' that there's no debatin'

That's all cap like the hat that they'll throw your name in

They say your name holds weight, but I don't know who weighed it

It's so degrading, knowin' so and so is overrated

These rappers grow complacent, faced with lack of motivation

I don't know who told you paigans that the throne is vacant

Nati's a jerk, he's just repeatin' himself

I just let my body of work speak for itself

With the cockiest smirk, I still believe I'll excel

It doesn't take a lot of research, it's easy to tell

Don't even try; I'm on demon time, I'll see you in hell

Try to keep the dream alive, but ain't been sleepin' too well

They do it for streams and likes, they're just eager to sell

I read between the lines, these guys been readin' in braille

I talk to myself when I'm in need of a friend

Don't call this farewell, I know I'll see you again

Dominoes fell as a means to an end

All it brought me was hell, no reprieve or amends

I'm workin' on craftin' these words with a passion

I've been mad since they don't receive a worthy reaction

The fact that I don't get what I deserve turned me to savage

It had me burnin' these bridges on a journey through madness

Witness The Rise of a Villain, emerged from the ashes

I made it my mission to murder these wack kids

The way that they slur when they're rappin's disturbing and tragic

I'm cut from a different cloth, you're not procuring this fabric

Look, you want fame, I'll put your face on Channel 8 News

You don't get to the bag, that's a purse, and it's fake too

Nati for President like Murs 'cause I Paid Dues

I'll hang you and your lame crew with the same noose

I should go back and slap whoever raised you

I just did the Thanos snap, this is my phase two

Plan to ask for peace from whoever you pray to

après la folie, this is the prelude
