v-i - saving it lyrics

i’m adjacent to greatness
need patience whenever chasing
combined with anxiety, true irony in the making

i’ve been, trying to shake it, these days been growing abrasive
when slept on when hearing praises of rappers sounding sedated
though music i is ever changing and artists doing the same
the substances substituted for content is insane
808s set the basis for great and made us complacent
with fraudulent kelly slaters content with just riding waves
problem that i got faced with, really how to advance
not compromising my art for some styrofoam or a dance (yeah)
they distorted your vision
precarious proclamations, your lyrics ain’t sick it’s sickening

my purpose is surgical, more feigning for each incision
gotta maintain ambition; change this condition
i’m for reliving the past, but instead of us reminiscing
on what, good music was, i’m saving it for the listeners

given my all, with every verse that i’ve written
he+rs+s whenever spittin’, tryna disperse some wisdom
to my, contemporaries, with the mindsets of children
few titles from going viral, a cycle’s what you’re fulfilling
abandon how you were raised, more content tryna fit in
personas that you create, molded from television
wanted women and fame, and rap was the way to get in
but what’ve you got to say, when others dictate decisions
you make, no mistake, these the rappers we pushin’
a faction of clout chasers that tend to lean on the hooks
walking gimmicks in chains, reality’s off kilter
hard to picture success, when most are living through filters

apologies if my honesty’s seen offensive
but these days perception seen as the real image
my look and words equal, may not be what you seek (may not)
embodying those who copy, don’t understand the mystique
y’all just as crooked as some of these politicians
pedestals you’ve been given from running game with your writtens
behind the bars a mirage, front like you’ve been to prison
with no, hunger or drive, flat tires and malnutrition
as a result, ogs don’t tend to respect us
even us new mcs, they don’t receive or neglect us
remember workin’ on beats, with bam we had this discussion
on how to really be seen, when the generation’s corrupted
propaganda claims every era
just focus on every stanza, notice these rapper’s errors
you could be the king of this, reign over rap’s sahara
be fruitful gaining appeal with the music, just go bananas
on every song; savage
even if beats are average
or people featured the wackest, they’ll question belief in dragons
with all the heat, passing through each of these vocal patterns
confirming what i imagine was everything y’all been lackin’
can retract when the fact is your tracks are like stolen fashion
shoplifted to be specific, see something you like and jack it
these genes affected the masses, my passion’s saving the listeners
i’m for reliving the past, but the future comes from within it, v+i!
