Seen a corner boy die on the scene, we plotting to scheme with the eyes of a fiend
rummaging pockets to find the rocks inside of his jean
pride is redeemed, exchanging dollars for product, deposit inside your stream and the plot that lies in between
it's the optimal means when you feel defeated and covered in lesions
succumbing to the beast yea the substance intriguing
I ducked in a back block for a hit of the crack rock or the scramble or smack shot, it encompass the demons
the street corners is moonlit, one decides with impulsiveness
in the mix of a turf war, gunshots at your Altimas
these are the parts where they come and find the tumultuous
try to swallow narcotics, my stomach lining is ulcerous
cruddiest trenches, shooting dope, the ugliest women
but we finding common ground in the bloody syringes
I'm playing this over in my head and I'm stuck in retention
I'm simply an advocate for drugs, the thugs and the pitchers
snot in my nose still I sniff with a nasally drip
This case is a gamble so we pray for the savory fix
from out the pages of Raegan attempts
and away from my family, I hate when explaining this shit!
temporary euphoria or complacent power?
I'm impatient, I break and take it in vacant houses
I found some looseys and some eighths in the places we scoured
feeling rewarded with a quarter, escape to the solace
the curbsiders they color code it with orange capsules
hitting the pipe like the car was riding with poor axles
this format I never could foreshadow
addicted to snort while I'm forced to fight in these court battles
the core values, the hard and soft are the raw devils
my sound is distorted, faint base and the car treble
liquid crack in my veins I'm making a falsetto
hit it out the park and ran to the base like Palmeiro
this for the faith of the players plaguing in all ghettos
no escaping the danger in place til the smog settles
even dabbled in syrup, its smooth as the Amaretto
and for the crills niggas is drilling inside of your armored vessels
they palm the special, they trigger happy and overjoyed
the hustler and fiend, a piece of the street and we both employed
some days are better, some days I'm hopeless and so annoyed
we bleeding from hope til we overdosing from opioids
shifting your focus to the social inequalities
the quality of life is exposed in this dichotomy
hearts frozen and colder on this emotional coaster, the corner boy and the kingpin just took my soul in the robbery
she desperate for a high, she pass flashing her tits
hands on her crotch and she'll cop with the ashiest lips
passionate when she hit the pack, it's the nastiest shit
in her fecal matter, but this pack is a matter of risk
can't hold her piss in her bladder and now she motionless
with craters in her face she in dire need of exfoliates
oblivious to the government thugs who promoting this
re-consoling a pipe 'cause for a fiend its no condolences
so get control of it, death instilled in this ill weakness
creating a generation of villains and thrill seekers
no decent living, job opportunities still screening
and now you're becoming another victim of film features
beat the addiction before you see the symptoms increase
no matter your nationality, race, gender or creed
you're feeling helpless to the drugs extending its reach
you tasting the brim, your ending is grim, left to decease...

verse I
I smother gossipers oxygen til they feeling asphyxiation
I feel the hatred, but still this feeling's exhilarating
appeal to the diggers, listeners of the linguists
and the stamps solidify and express the initiation
its distinctive, you constantly finding a reason to infuriate
I'm catching a flight, Santiago miercoles
vino and a bunch of Latinas 'round me to serenade
you niggas envy, heart chakra deteriorates
and your clout and believers don't amount to the mouths that I'm feeding
away from countless subpoenas over these mountainous regions
world renown as an elitist
the niggas I'm 'round gripping the pound, killing and getting you down in a gown for procedures
an ounce of the cheeba ceasing genetic miseries
my crown is a beacon, they flee to respected entities
broke the tension of vested enemies
your momentum descending son we moving with different kinetic energies
Hook x2
this is intuition and discipline
we stay committed, accountable for our sentiments
blowing cumulus is the forte
on 95 or the Vespucio Norte
verse II
I create with regional tastebuds, this is simply gastronomy
observe your repetition, you niggas spit with monotony
volatile as the fruit that I bare in this man's progeny
prodigal when I'm loose and composing these anthologies
views of the Andes on top of the Providencia
blowing the la inside of pavilions on fly peninsulas
the all seeing eye, trying to align as modern emperors
the righteous yet they try to define us as pie distributors
we enticing calligraphers, I write with the fire inside of the eyes of Tommy
as he threatened the life of the minister
the inhibitor, my niggas is killing your villages
with money on the head of deceivers, price for the swindlers
and these alternate nations be approving my authorization
bombarding relations, putting razors to marketing agents
yo the story's invigorating
to the weak hearted my aura's intimidating and its peace
Hook x2
this is intuition and discipline
we stay committed, accountable for our sentiments
blowing cumulus is the forte
on 95 or the Vespucio Norte
