al-one & onlyone - rose petals and gold metals lyrics

[verse 1: onlyone]
as a kid i used to get detention, i used to get referrals
and school suspension, ’cause the way i talked was controversial
i had a special message, and i could not suppress it
i had to express it, so i let my thought go verbal
i learned to pay attention, ’cause life will go in circles
and bad things you’ve done to others will come back and hurt you
i know it gets so hurtful, our problem’s universal
you though those starving kids were on infomercials?
i came from gravel blocks, where half of ’em battle rock
and the completely other half would have to battle loss
when will the hustle stop? when will harassment stop?
yo, i accent it for the kids who have to battle cops
who would never with weapons, and get measure eleven
and the heaviest sentence, soon as the gavel drops
when ellen castle dropped, from the aneurysm
i had to question life, and why my dad was missing
i had to question why my whole fam was christian
and learned another man’s religion ain’t a reason, is it?
i’m not a man’a business, i’m a man of vision
it’s patterns rhythm and the past i visit
if he’s batted with it, then this bash in prison
he’s onlyone, they’d rather ignore the passion in him
you don’t have to listen, but i’ll collapse the system
and watch it fall like a man after cash just hit him
[verse 2: al+one]
i work hard for the money, spit bars as a hobby
ain’t no red carpet here, ain’t no stars in the lobby
this is real life, i feel like the walls are closing in
it’s getting real tight, but i still write despite of all that is
call it quits, never that, bottom line, i got to live
choose it instead of that, my voice is all i got to give
it’s my prerogative, but i’m not tryna do how bobby did
cause you can get caught up in your problems quick
stop and reflect on each day as it passes
tripping in my head, on the way this sh+t happen
on the stuff, up at sapient’s house
ranging sh+t out, so i can put the bank in account
make moves and be out, make fools of these pround
harpers, b+st+rds, they ain’t rappers, they ain’t repping my town
i’m an nep resident, mic veteran
what i see telling it, will never be irrelevant
the only thing in question is your level of intelligence
coming against me ain’t really smart, in fact it’s idiot
type of behavior, what you write on the paper
should be wiped for the face of the earth, put that mic down, hater
it’s lights out playa, ain’t no hand out or favor
but you went and ran your mouth, and now christ couldn’t save ya
making my submittance, worshiping the ice and the paper
and i’m through being nice, out to life for the majors
