I don’t speak my mind as much as I should
So now’s my time and the beat is therapy? Understood
My only hope is when I swing; that the ball hit wood
And I hope I hit the stank like only George Duke could
Listen, the ones who make mistakes are the truest of human beings
And when they reach the top, that’s the truest beauty you’ve ever seen
Cause those individual’s heights are never compared
Those who live on upper floors often started under the stairs
You’re a wizard, yeah, I doubt the drum sticks carry spells
But when they hit the skin with a rhythm, I feel that my soul distills
More than pills or my will could ever ever settle
Life will come around, a flat circle, a wheel that I can pedal
My soles flat to the metal, another ride through these streets
I’ll never leave unless I can save me from these fallen trees
Fallacies I’ve found; I dodge with the Skip and bound
And grab the mic cause there’s no lies abound when I’m around
It’s Joe P
My only hope is when I swing; that the ball hit wood
And I hope I hit the stank like only George Duke could
Grew up on Eminem but I ain't got the wordplay
Or the beats like Ye, or the swag like Andre
These rappers lie every album cycle like subscription service
I bitch and moan and ponder why I'm feeling so nervous
if x marks the spot than the x must be silent
Like Joe's last name, I can see the ultraviolet
Like a mantis shrimp, my bars powered by speeds of light
When I spit, I flashbang cause all you see is white
I am rap's Costanza, hip hop's Peter Griffin
Turns out all they needed was the introvert that's missing
I'm like Macklemore but mixed, I'm like Kendrick with no talent
I gotta snub the grammy, there needs to be a balance
All these rich fucks get fucked, I’m calling out your bluff
Talking smack about mama, Imma smack you up
Funny enough, my ma ain't give a shit, but I do
Save your bullshit for when you exit my room
