I'm a spitter, born and raised
Been rappin since the golden age
Still u muthafucks resist to give praise
I'd take over ya city if I had my ways
But it's a bitch just to get recognized
So it's time to start wreckin lives
On my Wu, killa beez, now u need insecticide
I do with ease, like sunday morning sunrise
But this is a game for young guys
Aging rapper wasted years had me tongue tied
And these god damn blogs ain't showin no love
So I gotta stay fresh, I am Death From Above
Prey I don't snap cuz I fuckin had enough
Tense every day cuz this fuckin life sucks
I'm on my OJ, I ain't talkin white trucks
You know what they say if you ain't fit the right gloves
I dont even care I wanna self destruct
Gotta live in a world wit the corporate corrupt
Where we struggle to survive even with our 9 to 5
And dreams fade away cuz we start to lose our stride
And nobody wanna end up on the losing side
But it's brutal out here, NY is do or die
But when ya bills are high and ya life is ass
You might need a minute just to get detached
I'm goin Primal, I'm outta my cage
It's goin viral, the world's my stage
I'm on my grind tear up this damn place
One of a kind, the damage is man made
Things are fucked up right now
Fuck it i'm about to erupt right now
It's cool I ain't gettin no luv right now
I'm Death From Above and U nuttin but garbage
I like the thought of not having a home
To roam round the allys like a vagabond
Nothing is permanent and set in stone
When you ain't got obligation, and ya on ya own
Guess this type of life is frowned upon
So you can do the 9-5 until the cows come home
Fuck this lifestyle, and fuck this life and yours
You make hit after hit and it gets ignored
While kids with wack skills got they shit in stores
Gettin magazine writeups and building rapport
I might be sounding like a salty white guy
But if you was me you would be feeling likewise
So I switched my mode to anything goes
Meaning I don't give a fuck who's the first to die slow
You thought I was nice, nah I'm versatile, bro
When I'm ready to blow, it hurts like a mofo
And it's really up to you if it's personal
No matter what you spew, I stand vertical
But if all you do is hate what's ya purpose, yo?
You got some issues under the surface, bro?
Who the fuck knows who'll go and who's staying
You can sell snow whenever it starts raining
Most of u are critics while the music is playing
You don't want me ta spit lyrics I will do some upstaging
I'm goin Primal, I'm outta my cage
On my Shakespeare, the world's my stage
I'm on my grind tear up this damn place
One of a kind, the damage is man made
Things are fucked up right now
Fuck it i'm about to erupt right now
Don't matter if I ain't gettin no luv right now
I'm Death From Above and U nuttin but garbage
