Respect The Architect

[Verse 1] You want the fly shit, you got the right brother Catch a chem trail right after I fly over I battled alcohol, had to brawl like a soldier Vowed to never fall, now all my nights sober Refine my mind, reclinin' on my sofa Designed to rhyme and strike kinda like a cobra My pen's venomous, poison tip sentences Paralyze your steril mind and leave skin blemishes "When is he gonna fall off?," some of the people wonder You're more likely to see a foot of snow in the summer I'm not mainstream, the tide can never take me under I'm Clyde Stubblefield, the rhyme is my funky drummer I write this like my ancestors holding kitchen(?) Before the Bible and any man made religion Author contextualization, sign and spirit It's like I neva loose sleep if y'all don't feel it I'm in my own lane, it has no speed limits Psychedelic mind is assault without the weed in it I'm at the point of no return, too deep in it We can turn and look back, but I proceed wid it I lost track of time, felt like I was unconscious Did drips, somebody stole my style and I can't stop it Top to bottom, whole thing like I was madtronics Woke up with a rhyme, half asleep in my boxers If it's gonna happen I go a bit beyond You know the true architect when you hear the song The foundation for the underground you're standing on True fans gonna miss him when he gone [Hook] Respect the architect [Verse 2] Right, you can find many rappers more complicated But not many if any high nominated I'm at the top waitin', my album top rated The brightest rap stars not in my constellation Tryin' small talk your way into the conversation But I dominated kinda like a dominatrix Till the point that my biggest haters stop the hating And pass the piece like a plate at a congregation The most holiest, atop is the loneliest But only cause I don't associate with any lames Expose the phoney, show 'em how cold it gets With flows that go against the grain No doubt I play the shooter and coroner, it's me When you know the party droppin', catch it when it's easy My rap pedigree commands respect Blueprint, the master builder [Hook] Respect the architect
