lyrics

Pre Chorus: From the ghost of Frida Khalo im killin drillin you niggas with self portraits of the….spirit
from the tomb of king tut son I’m livin /these rags and riches I’m taking straight to my… crydipt
from the view inside of the zoo I’m livid / watching you niggas fucking up our game’s image
from the borough of the biggest recognize, I represent for the illest
I’m Brooklyn’s own


Chorus:

These niggas know the game /
it ain’t no time to run /
we living out our dreams /
they’re just selling you some /
they won’t know that we’re serious until KINGS we become/
so come up off the throne /
the watching is done
We trickin out the system /
purging out our losses /
we fuckin’ up they money /
and takin’ back our portions/
ain’t no more shaking hands /
we don’t care what it costs us /
we settin precedents /
and this is Catharsis


Verse 1:

Forgive them mother / for they know not what they do /
all crosses bearing her signature from right under the womb /
praise is due /
to the most wise / them OGs x the homies tellin’ no lies /
word is bond, better keep your flow tight / no /
your work of art don’t work for us no more /
I’m taking malice to your palette / rippin hearts out for show /
on display at your local gallery / we gatherin’ those /
with the sickest stick up mentality / for snatchin’ the gold /
magnetic glow /( OH! )/
in the midst of the city’s makeover /
where transplants try to take over /
and wannabees wanna stay over / know //
that we been sittin in the cut /
waitin to light our city up from BK straight to the top of the globe //
so pardon my stars as I get my shine off / /
and pardon your heart if I let a 9 off //
my mind off its handle / until I sign off /
it’s URK to the grave / fucker, the grind’s ours /


Chorus II:

These niggas know the game /
it ain’t no time to run /
we living out our dreams /
they’re just selling you some /
they won’t know that we’re serious until KINGS we become/
so come up off the throne /
Dunny the watching is done
We trickin out the system /
and purging out our losses /
we fuckin’ up they money /
and takin’ back our portions/
ain’t no more shaking hands /
we don’t care what it costs us /
we out our for presidents /
and this is Catharsis

Verse 2:

I’m sauvignon blanking out /
hearing these niggas talk out the side they mouth /
fresh out this pen with the lyrics that leave you little doubt //
spit it out if you holding, choking on apprehension /
you scared to think it / my greatness you always fail to mention / keeping this underground royal /
buried up under the soil /
so you could look in the mirror /
and feel that you remained loyal /
until this tiger appears / to tinker trouble x toil /
reawaken your fears / and smolder your blood til it boils /
I’ve earned this hunger nigga / you ain’t tryna eat /
you ain’t tryna see life on the other side of the street //
see, the grass ain’t always greener but at least it’s different //
where you could hear the truth clearly you just afraid to listen /
made it my mission to sniff out all of the lames /
use a blowtorch to blaze my own lane /
letting the forest burn my name /
Darth Dream / Sith Lord King /
beginning of my first era / peep the aura, it gleams / you’ll see / passive aggression was never my nature /
cause I got a / passion for danger and reckless behavior /
I’m here to / slay any and all naysayers x traitors /
til their blood rains down and emboldens my foes to be braver /
you got desire lemme see it /
I got the supply to keep you alive and get you wired for the season /
hired for a reason /
to bring the truth, the justice and this urban rebel wave /
until the end of my days/ (my nigga)


Chorus III:

These niggas know the game /
it ain’t no time to run /
we living out our dreams /
they’re just selling you some /
they won’t know that we’re serious until KINGS we become/
so come up off the throne /
the watching is done
We trickin out the system /
purging out our losses /
we fuckin’ up they money /
we takin’ back our portions/
ain’t no more shaking hands /
we don’t care what it costs us /
we out for presidents / ….
And this is Catharsis
