~Scars
Before you draw out your sword may I utter a word?
We might be faced with this red sea where there is no Moses' rod
But then, there are millions who are ready to draw me out of this mud
What will you do when it's not the Jordan you normally cross?
The kiss that I blew to your chick left you a scar
So let that scar be a sticker
We stood side by side just like my testicles
I was on your skin like freckles
Remember that night I flew out of your arms like the innocent Joseph
You cried out my name but I acted deaf
Since then our minds have been at constant brawl and it feels like the 2022 Ukraine war
But my mind is so strong like the Russian army -- Coming through by Newton's law
See, the pen might be mightier than the gun but the bullet is faster than the ink direction
So be careful of what you wish for because there is no time for correction
I'm at the top of your resolution and it feels like missionary position
I'm not the one who let it go so I don't have to reposition
And if your door post ain't got a sticker
Let these scars be a sticker
I could see my treasures hidden in your eyes
You thought I forgot but my brain is a storage device
I need them back except for you, you'd be a stranger in my paradise
I was baptized yesteryears and you expect me to take off my nicker
I'm sorry I can't, my name echoes in Heaven's speaker
But if you still want me to be your nigga
Let these scars be a sticker
