NF - HOPE

PANDEMONIUM

Something special about me, you can already tell the energy is different
Confidence is at the highest level, I don't ever see it dipping
Try me if you wanna, guarantee though you gon' wish you hadn't did it
That's a war that you could never win, but hey, I like the optimism

Giving over half my life to this, I think I made a good decision
Trust my gut, I hear it talking, then I know it's time for me to listen
Mastermind consistent, matching my commitment, that's not realistic
Ayy, feature presentation, what they came to see, I open up the curtain, woah

Oh, my
Pandemonium, it's showtime
Got they noses up, I know why
Jealous of me 'cause the flow nice
Did it all without a co-sign
Shoot, I always hit the bull's-eye
Barely even putting effort in this, effortless
Imagine if I did try, woah

Acknowledge me or not
That don't really make no difference to me, I
Operate the same no matter who's around me
Who's around me is important to me, I
Keep my enemies at arm's length, but
Close enough to make me feel safe, my
Diligence can't be competed with, an easy win for me
This is a small taste of what

What I'm capable of doing with my talent, stretching my imagination
Watch it turn a small idea into something that you have to (what?)
Tip your hat to when you see it, the whole package ain't got nothing missing
Check off every box, it's unavoidable at this point, don't you act like (what?)
You don't see me out here making waves, I got a air about me
I don't play the game the way they want me to, they tell me, "Take a left," I take a (what?)
Right, I'm not the one to pick a fight with, try and bully me, make you regret it quick
The only person I allow to push me around is myself

Body language, read it well
Tweeting on your face, I'm flipping through your pages
You don't have to scream and yell
It's clear to me, yeah, I can tell
The front you put on isn't real
That poker face ain't hiding nothing new
The hand you have before the cards were dealt

I got what they lack, first in every class
Never come in last, game is on my back
Wifey on my lap, she my better half
Heavy when I stack, pockets getting fat
Passion never left, say it with my chest
Got a problem? "Yes", meet me in the flesh
You don't cut the check? I don't do the set
Not a fan of threats, always been direct

Nothing but the best, rarely do the press
Promise me the world, not holding my breath
They want me to fail, haven't done it yet
Stacking up the bread, thankful 'cause I'm blessed
Sharpest in the shed, pen is cutting-edge
I get in the booth, perfect, nothing less
Key to my success? Keep a level head
"We want something fresh," what you think this is?

What you think this is?
Deadly with the raps, how could you forget?
Thought I might've left, thought I might've quit
Thought I hung it up, thought I, think again
Petty? That depends, what's the latest trend?
I don't have a clue, I don't follow them
They just follow me, keep 'em on the edge
Keep 'em on they toes, keep 'em wondering

Keep 'em wanting more, eating out my hand
Don't look at the score, don't look in the stands
Focused on my goals, execute the plan
Beat me at my game? Never, not a chance
Walk you through my pain, show you who I am
Don't care what it pays, loyal to my brand
Foot is off the brake, stepping on the gas
No one at my pace, catch me if you can

Far from done, got so much left to give you
Not the man I was, that person detrimental
2020 me could never hold a candle
To the present-day me standing here before you
Overstep, destroy, you give up, can't afford to
Keep my standards high, ain't changing that for no one
Digging deep, still got that hunger, press record
You hear it in my voice, can't let the fame and fortune

Get the best of me, see clearly what's important
Not impressed with me? Ain't looking for endorsements
Dropping masterpieces left and right, ignore the
Hate, life testing me, passing with flying colors
Always been unique, can't be no dime a dozen
I take pride in this, won't catch me cutting corners
Have no tolerance for ignorance, I heard you
Lost your confidence in me, this should restore it, pandemonium
