lyrics

I wanted to rap like a gangsta
Without sounding like a wanksta
So instead I am a prankster
And it's all thanks ta
My search for answers
Spreading like cancer
Tip toe like a dancer
Or fly like prancer
I got beats for sale
No tall tales hit me up on gmail
I'm not trying to be stale
I'm trying to be stable
And get my hands into
Anything I'm able
Any offers on the table
I'm trying to saturate like american cable
And use that as my way to
Meet like minded people who want to be equal
This is just a prequel
I made this because I'm so impatient to meet you
And see where this goes
The destination at the end of the road
The celebration that we're all owed
The fountain of youth
From which life flows
Yeah I got flows
In a garden full of weeds
I'm as vibrant as a rose
But I don't like to brag
The motto's facts not words
I'm just confident
It'll one day be earned
I apologise
In case you get burned
I'm not here to make friends
Now you have been served

I was small
But now I'm grown
And I won't do
What I'm told
Now I'm coming
For the throne
Because I know
Fortuna favours the bold

Vertu verde fortuna mayne
I'm not satisfied with the material plane
I have an ego I accept the blame
I'm headed into the unknown
I am sick of the same
To spark inspiration inside my brain
I throw fuel on the fire to create a bigger flame
A primate evolved
That's what I claim
On the path to mutation
I might go insane
There's games to play
Words to say
Art to make
And rules to break
As an APE
I must create
To find my place
Within this space
I'm not worried in the least
I'll stand on my two feet
And turn into a beast
Over these beats
I'll howl before I bleet
Think before I speak
My journey's incomplete
I won't accept defeat

I was small
But now I'm grown
And I won't do
What I'm told
Now I'm coming
For the throne
Because I know
Fortuna favours the bold
