Rap Basquiat - Cormega

Niggas fronting so I’m coming back

Spitting that shit that had Pookie doing jumping jacks

Getting money when you was watching Thundercats

We not the same;

my lifestyle ain’t come from rap

Until recently, instinctively I must adapt

The bars are hard but I’m easily crushing tracks

Even elite rappers fall back when Cory rap

Truth is spoken;

you can’t ignore the fact

I’m vocally gifted;

the confidence is obvious

I’m showing you glimpses

Growth of potential require total commitment

Those that say I don’t come around, I’m home with my children

On some real shit I’m no longer dealing

And I don’t fuck with anyone showing resentment

Can talk that shit walking I’m focused and driven

In life nothing is given so I’m going to get it

I’m a different pedigree poetically

Those who momentarily slept

You just encouraged me to take it to a level rarely seen

Apparently rappers lack the intensity that you presently hear from me

It’s a unique ability to speak with sincerity

I’m deep with lyrics giving the streets clarity

Lack of patience will have you catching cases

And when you free, resiliency converts negative energy to inner peace

Enables me to realize I’m blessed to be able to live successfully

On something that was just a dream yesterday

Tomorrow wasn’t promised but I’m here today

Which illustrates how far skill’ll take you

If you got the will to make it to the realm of greatness

Can be reached through dedication

And desire inspired by deep determination

Keeps me motivated, like faithless motherfuckers

Praying I don’t make it 'cause they ain’t eating and tasteless

Rappers be hatin, I’m creating like Anthony Mason

And if you waiting for me to fail

You have to be patient;

I lack limitation

I can turn a bad situation to rap innovation

My pen advances the paper;

enhancing my way up

Life I’m actually grateful I made it

'Cause scheming away a situation

Aiming for greatness is a journey, not a destination

Preparation is what separates me from those with self-doubt and reservation

Should know hesitation delays elevation

And shows why they never made it

Let me explain it, dedication is a measure of strength and character

Like a diamond, pressure can’t break me
