"Front Runner" feat. Ahred, Sintax, Griffin, Sev Statik, Ajax, JustMe & Sojourn
Verse 1a: Cas Metah
Spitting real live fish stories bigger than you thought
Living up to the talk, give it all you got, if you hot
Then I'm freon infinity, riddling finicky emcees fiddling with gimmicks and mimicking MTV
It's pitifully obscene, even off screen and off stage
Y'all play yourself in all ways
And always claiming to be doing Yahweh's will
But tell me who you going to reach if y'all ain't skilled
Verse 1b: Ahred
I'm the illest cat on the planet with a flag and can't plant it
Stakes is high when climbing the sky rhyming and I'm an addict
To vocab and concept renegade head hunts and bomb threats
The on-set of everything dope you've ever imagined
And you're stranded beneath this freak of natures peak
Where I've managed to land prose, b-boy pose to the beat
Leaving no stone unturned or enemy flag unburned
Everything you ever thought you knew has been unlearned
Hook: Cas Metah
So you want to be a front runner?
Huh, trust me buddy, stay in your place and stay out of trouble
You don't want it with them Rats from the Tunnel
Deepspace5, Future Shock and S.I. the best crews
And we let loose on young’un's
So trust me sonny, stay in your place and stay out of trouble
Learn your calling and follow it on the humble
Learn your calling and follow it on the humble
Verse 2a: Sintax
Most of y'all choking on a plate of false diction
Pretend pulp fiction, faking a Walt Whitman
Same weak stick men wherever I roam
Kids sweating these clones like a pair of foam headphones
You want to be first, you got to be last
All the Babylon kings of this earth will get gassed
Get passed by the poor in spirit, they feet fast
All these false prophets on blast
Verse 2b: Griffin
So you want to be a front runner, huh?
Be a vicious contender
My name is Griff, let me aid you in your business venture
Any rumor you heard about it is nonsense
Inquiring a title is a strenuous process
Some think they tight and shorten they vocal lifespan
Convinced they got it locked after re- of a writing
But I don't feel the talk, that's why I answer it
Respond with truth to these verbally challenged kids
Hook:
Verse 3a: Sev Statik
Well it's the same old story I'm dumping on dudes
Pushing up weight, pausing on fools
The more you keep talking the more you lose
Trying to save time without spending your last few
Moments on ego, don't pick up the mic
You should have left it alone 'cause you ain't doing it right
From ministry to hip-hop you get us all laughed at
You want to be a poser then pick up a back pack
Verse 3b: Ajax
Do you need a kid fence?
Making no sense, absent minded pen use
Confused little boy wets his bed
With urinated flows of bad white noise
I thought you were potty trained but you got a toddler brain
A rotten tomato, eating play dough
Regurgitating raps 'cause you ate too fast
Just put down your pen and get back to your crayons
Verse 4a: JustMe
It ain't easy to follow the model at full throttle
While you cuddle with a bottle we battle mono-a-mono
Hotter than a sauna with the first and final
Press verse to vinyl, we blessed, cursed and titled
You don't really want it with the often taunted
Then again if you got it go ahead and flaunt it
Know that it's a haunted life to be sonic
Like we said a slow burn, Sojourn speak up on it
Verse 4b: Sojourn
We're enthused to bend rules and send crews
Into rap broke revisions and out of they bad luck decisions
To challenge the mission of the risen revolutionary disciples on cypher
Sessions or recording or performing lessons on
Streets on mic control, Christ control life patrol
Of one self on and off the beat, get it?
We said it and let it live for us and everyone else in ear shot hear it
Hear shock in audible form, you've been warned
