(Rap) Tune In

Don't gotta check to see being the nicest is in my destiny
but I seem to let my vices get the best of me
Knee bouncing restlessly with senseless free energy
Till the world rips relentlessly right through my ecstasy
Nobody mess with me lest they be sentencing themselves
To a notch on my belt and a spot upon my shelf
That's a problem for ya health, I lost it quick
Image says I've got to stick as a constant prick
That's what you like so that's what I write yo
The cancerous plight grows, throw hands in a fight though
Say I'm stabbin with knifes o' grabbing a rifle
Then stand on the mic so those plans get recycled
Wanna rap with a tight flow, never planned to be psycho
But the planet is stifled for any man that is nice, no?
Yup, so what you want more aggression?
Fine, fuck it lets see if this can catch your attention
Yo assholes, how about you listen to words for once
Having to swallow hollow lyrics is a worthless lunch
Curse and cuss and always act like my verse is rough
Cause once on a beat no one cares what the person does
You listen for some tone shifts and oh shit
A weak punch makes a no wit track a known hit
Y'all dumb and dull as rusty razor blades
Let me break away from these lames in a major way

Spent a day on a verse that you don't hear
Practiced for hours just to get the words clear
I could raise the volume up till it bursts ears
But no one's listens, that's my worst fear

On the second verse I practice to perfect it first
Check the words till my neck is hurt from the endless thirst
Tend to search till it's amazing or till my pen just bursts
Mess with verbs those tenses nursed until the best emerge
Meant to work so when it's worse might as well send a hearse
Death row inmate, I only live to see my sentence served
I guess it hurts knowing lyrics getting left behind
Digging deep into my chest to find what's best to rhyme
Express what's mine, barely pull truths from my flesh sometimes
Hope to design a single line to withstand the test of time
In essence I'm a sad sucker for syllables
Sick of stupid songs that lack love or the principles
Purposely pander to damn dumb individuals
A pervasive joke that can't stand up as original
I'd rather not revert to club bangers for some strangers
In hump chambers who love dangers and numb players with scum natures
I pour my heart out just to hear it echo
Try to communicate......hello?
Silence doesn't let me know if I fail so
When you only want to hear a beat listen to techno
I scribble this dribble to make ripples so tune in
Time piddled with riddles from rap for my amusement
The littlest insults say you don't like the music
Just keep it civil so you don't sound quite as stupid
