    It gets dark quick
    No pandemic
    But the world is all sick
    Nauseous when I spit
    Vomit emotion, cause a commotion
    Trained in tracks, studied locomotion
    Petition for tradition with vocal potions I’m mixing
    Time keeps on slipping, the scales are tipping
    Even if I need a walker, I’m never tripping

    Life gets drained
    Now I'm empowered
    Vast conquer
    Devoured ya badge of honor
    Bastards get smashed cuz I'm bothered
    Ya better run quick fast
    The clip has a mind of its own when ya get splashed
    Back on the corner bodega
    Lots of hecklers feinding for Ill type revenga
    Nigga up north he sent a
    Monstrous type cat
    Bullets bounce off his vest even his flesh
    Jake's stay away from any type arrest
    Now my name's up,yeah nigga come bring your best
    Bloody contest
    Ugly scene indeed taking place on the continent
    Look like a bomb fest
    But I'm locked and loaded ready to cock back
    Steady aim
    Bullets trajectory
    Hit ya noggin heavy,all I saw was brains rain like confetti
    But I got wet up too,pains heavy like slaves chained in the hot serengetti
    But naw thunny yous never get me
    And you never did
    Now I'm up ya crib lampin like a pimp
    Gots mad cheddar kid
    Most importantly puffin mad crip
    Having a good time laughin
    Fuckin ya bitch in my new mansion
    The tables turned what yours in mine coward
    At the end of day

    Outta sight I'm the last source to a fight
    One click equals serious shit mad hits
    No questions no answers laws swoop in
    Only to find me in a trash chute with piles of loot
    The things we do for the money playin' like a dummy
    See how many turn friendly when the see the ending near G
    Naw not me just take me away quickly
    Let it sneeze from the squeeze and if I don't breath
    O well destined for hell societys still ringing liberty's bell
    No justice for us just let the led spray us for justice
    Another mack in the back can't see his own death
    Execution style souls running a mile all ya heard was blaooow
    And oh how
    Many days are ending like this massacre
    Battlin' for the face of the throne my ears sharpen
    Once I click the pen grenade lyrics it's hard to clear
    Ya mind when you full of fear conceal my tears
    Only eternally whos burning me equivocally?
    I tried to be but so many enemies wanna be free
    So I give em power....

    And Act like a man, I top them all like the pyramids on the top of the send
    I’m ready to battle, bring your knives, fetch your guns, and get some guts
    I’ll show you fear in Chunks
    My actions are risky briskly I got nothing to lose

      +Winter Lord (Dub' L) Plus the beat for The Message is not copyrighted as i have seen cover songs done to that beat in youtube with no consequences.. Since both i gave you power and message were from the same album i don't think i will face any problem uploading a song to this instrumental

      just write in brackets remix. and state that the beat isnt yours and was produced by premier. that should do

    I gave u power, put da plug in da wall/ I gave u power, charged ur battery & all/ I gave u power when I invented da street team/ made u general & sat u right next to me/ I gave u power like performance enhancements/ gave u power like da light company in Atlanta/ I gave u power like turning da ignition/ gave u power when I passed off my skills in da kitchen/ I gave u power when I let fuck shorty/ I gave u power when I bought ur first forty/ now u tryn to short me but I stand like wat holds da mic
