Measurements/FADE

[Intro] Eyes closed, and the fog is thick, can't you see? Look into my eyes, picture that Sharingan, eternal sleep What? [Verse 1] K i D, second D is silent, what's the point, where's the tip This iceberg is slight work and I might swerve and hit a ship If you didn't notice I'm in an ocean, why? I must be misplaced Can't wait until I can see your face, I'm drowning in a sea of grace Never can I measure up, no medicine in my metal cup Say let him up, and he takes a breath (Step away from the microphone!) Chocolate rain can you feel the pain, let's keep it Frank This ocean's deep, last year I was slipping My mind was gone and my soul was weak But I'm here, aw yeah, I made it to a new year Yeah suicide, was on my mind, straight tweakin', couldn't think clear Forget about it, I'm past that, that last quack, like Aflac Those phases fade like wearing little kid's backpacks REMEMBER!? Remember that? I remember, this lion's den, I'm Simba My Kaio-ken is on times ten, these dudes sweet like Splenda Urr, with the Tech N9ne growl Everybody's thinking that this little dude here can't spit Checking out the condition of Hip Hop With a switchblade I could pick locks, open the crypt Dead rappers come back to life, and that still wouldn't satisfy I'm a let you finish but, I can go last like Malachi No stressing, just asking for protection and wisdom Though offerings are minuscule, if I hate when I give them Trying to stay humble my stomach grumbles I'm hungry for that bread, and they break it But never eat it, instead they go straight to bed, like I said Eternal sleep, eternally dead, internally weak, your soul is unique But if you don't feed it you may get defeated, and faceless like Red, egh Cochise if I'm on the streets, yeah calm mind, but I’m ready If it pop off, I get knocked off, well I'm blood bought and I'm Yeti That's all white, you can check the robes, my rags were black That's Edgar Poe, just let it go, and be free, yee But y'all don't really be free, see RELT on the beat, that last letter's on Mr. T Or, the same thing thing as the oldest wonder And people are tripping over the mystery, but see me I do not give a, hoot, you can go and ask Big Mama The Fox and the Hound, lost then I'm found What did the fox say, and no I'm not checking Fox News Look into the mind of a killer that shot through Insert Schoolboy Q ad-lib, Moshpit, in this twisted brain Don't blink, when you switch the lanes, fit the game like a size 12 That means I don't really fit, but I mean regardless I just make it work like forced puzzle pieces Jesus, when they hear it, their ears will start bleeding Go against God and try to prove, then lose what you really needed Don't get defeated, just keep retreating from sin when it's creeping Or you'll end up receding, questioning the things you believed in Got to keep that faith strong, there's nothing to hate on Bitterness can have you cooking that beef with an apron You see I have no cape on, I'm no hero, I burn tracks like Nero They try to teach me evolution, my name isn't Spearow Ever so misunderstood, they could never understand I can't walk with Jesus, and hold Satan with my other hand Can't measure up to this standard, can't measure all of this grace They hate what I believe in, throw stones and then I FADE
