lyrics

V1: Mad Dukez
Weak teams try to micromanage, but we the macro
Capturin' the minutes and time without a capsule
Feeling like we shine from the head but no destro
Most cats dimmer and softer than love, xo
Yes going from me is a good plot
Straight shot up to ascension and reaching the top spot
still will fresh kill it, steppin' with ghetto socks
from the hood to the blocks, we crackin' em like locks
whatever/ its all hot/ you can like it or not
Cookin' fishy type rappers, smell like trout in a pot
never acting so the cast never made up of props
a lot realer than the primetime you suckas will watch
but tryna king on the checkerboard then Im ridin' in
I'm a young lion who's trying applied sciences
spittin' like a tyrant who's silent but still stylin' it
Walking fine lines of heroes who ooze vileness

V2: Ghettosocks
Ive been climbing up these ladders/ Jacob/ 
tryin' to give these lames an Axel Rose/ face lift/ 
going back to primary school/ basic / 
just to recline and then my legs stretch out/ spacious/ 
no more favors/ my patience is past due/ 
you wanna rescue the princess well thats cute/ 
we Fresh Killin' the map with Mad Dukez/ 
cold kickin' it/ under the water like Das Boot/
Not a stranger to the ways of the world, my words true / 
I wrote a poem and fed it to the whirlpool/ 
judging by the way that you act its all luck/ 
watch me drizzle on the facts like Jackson Polluck / 
lacking oxygen, we're surviving the tour/ 
I'm rocking moccasins don't mock the flock we Idle No More/  
while ya'll was piggy backing tracks like you Diddy Kong/ 
I'm with a feminist giggling to Lil John.\


V3: Timbuktu
from the windows/ to the walls/ never ever said my team has seen it all/ but we set it off/ we got game, got it like nadal/ on some socrates/ plato/ aristotle laws/ lobbin molotovs / slaughterin' the brawl/ down with the autobots you bout to be recalled/ no apologies/ promisin' we never do no wrong/ Hippocrates, drop emcees deep in Vietnam /its a nightmare on my street/ yeah you know the song/ we got the ego, plus we read the necronomicon, Bruce banner,  Bruce Campbell fan of Genghis Khan / You parakeets can't tango, even tag along / the vagabond king cat building camelot with the grammar the syntax and the analog/ abandoning spaceships/ crash the planet rock / damage your knot/ with mad dukez/ damn we got it locked
