Lyrics
They told you being a man was about the use. They told you the B-word was the only truth. Little boys playing with fire they can't control. Selling their seed for a hollow hole. Wake up. Check the ledger. I hear the tracks, yeah, it's always the same Calling 'em bitches just to hide your own shame You're piping and dumping, you're chasing the thrill While the system is laughing and sending the bill You think you're a shark? Nah, you're just bait Feeding the hunger and feeding the hate Every time you use 'em, you're losing a piece Of the man you could be, yeah, the power's on lease You're leaking your juice on a three-second high While the walls of your kingdom are starting to dry Real alpha energy? That's holding the line Protecting the heart that you claimed was yours to find. It's blood and the ledger, the cost of the soul Are you the hammer, or are you the coal? Any coward can use 'em, any boy can just run But a sovereign man finishes what he's begun Fuck the culture, fuck the empty flex I'm building a life that's bigger than sex I'm the master of the drive, I'm the lord of the flame If you don't take responsibility, don't say my name. The system wants you fatherless, drifting, and broke Want you chasing the hoes like a cruel fucking joke Because a man with a woman and a home and a plan Is a man that the state can't control or command They regulate your future, they tax your hard work Then they sell you the pimp life, you act like a jerk But I see the trap, yeah, I see the design Treating a queen like a piece of the swine That's peasant behavior. That's slave-mind grit. I'm taking the throne and I'm making it fit Responsibility is the ultimate weight It's the only thing keeping us out of the gate. Look at her eyes. Don't look at the body. The body is a shell. The eyes are the truth. Can you handle the depth? Or are you too shallow to swim? Tantra is a fire, not a fucking game. It's the union of two who are one and the same. Stop leaking your light. Build the dam. Become the man. OWN YOUR ACTIONS. It's blood and the ledger, the cost of the soul Are you the hammer, or are you the coal? Any coward can use 'em, any boy can just run But a sovereign man finishes what he's begun Fuck the culture, fuck the empty flex I'm building a life that's bigger than sex I'm the master of the drive, I'm the lord of the flame If you don't take responsibility, don't say my name. The ledger doesn't lie. Every act has a price. Who are you building for? The ghost? Or the blood? The dance is sacred.
