Welcome to the hotbox
I’m about to show you all what’s what
Rhymes on my pad
Got this on lock
This ain’t a drum loop
I’ve only got one shot
Welcome to the hotbox
I’m about to show you all what’s what
Rhymes on my pad
Got this on lock
This ain’t a drum loop
I’ve only got one shot
[Verse 1]
Everybody tryna be American
I only learned from the OGs and veterans
What you know 60 and Drapht?
What you know about Jimmy Recard?
Y’all were busy tryna copy Nicki Minaj
While I was in my bedroom just thinking of bars
They got flows, I’ll admit that they’re hard
With no substance in lyrics if I picked them apart
So what’s up with that?
You got them to thank that my hunger’s back
And if I get the upper hand you’ll get fucking smacked
Thought I was done with rap?
It’s too late for that
Cos I’ve become attached
And that’s why I’ve been trying to do justice to the music and triumph
I wanna wrestle with the lions
I’ll get into their den and even then keep striding

[Verse 2]
You’re probably guessing what I rap for now
I don’t wanna tear their platform down
I just wanna bring the real rap back to get the real rap fans
To gather all round
Let’s just take a minute and talk about the game who’s engraved in it
You’ll never do it spitting whack lyrics
Or publicly promoting a fake image
You’d be ashamed if you wavered and dropped the facade so you stay with it
Other rappers talk about how they make riches
You say you got 8 figures
But I know that that’s a lie
I want rap revived
Can we go back in time?
Before we had rappers confessing to acts of crime
And just talked about the average life
