Empty Atlas — Matador — lyrics
{Intro}
Peace to Phro
Guilty Simpson
Sound imperial
It’s all about Triumph you know
Overcoming
Go like this
Ay
Bro
{Verse}
We did it big in the fourth quarter
Hit the game when as the time expires
All nets
Yeah
It’s like I talk less later for that following shit
Swallowing spit
Bringing more stress
Cuz caught Co-vid
And he had a stroke
It was too much to handle
Got me seeing ghost
Looking at our old texts right before he passed
Damn he still took time to laugh
Before his path on the staircase to the most high
I hate it when my folks die
Look at my fam you know why
Close ties
I love it when I see ’em
I draw energy because I need them
All these goals that I’m achieving
Still seeing them as my completion
Gotta make the rhyme with a reason
Gotta make the time cause it’s leaving
Wishing I could freeze it
Soaking in the page as I’m reading
All these lies that I’m believing
All while I’m grieving
Familiar with lost so I’m seasoned
Be there to cause(?)
For my teachers
Making it an event
Running this shit you can’t prevent
They hate me for my decent
Mad cause I’m free of the leeches
Feeding me speeches of deceit
With ulterior motives
Probably didn’t figured I notice
They’d rather be locked with pictures on notice
They really get you promoted
When you dead or doing time and they picture your lowest
As a storyline to get to the doughy(?)
Your tough times on the frontline till they feel it and know it
They make profit from your pain
Make cheese with your picture and your name
I doubled down simplified life if you not around
You just enjoying the game from outta bounds
I reflected while they talk reckless
They digested it and forced records
It wasn’t natural
Just a money grab for the capital
Mimicking my lane for the avenues
I’m just a family man with a gift
Ready for the change and the shift
And I know that fame is a myth
You’re just another name on the list
Later for the chains and the whips
They just objects easily lost in side bets
So I’m putting change on the lick
And when we find a way then that’s it
Catch me on the lake grilling fish
Until I no longer exist
{Outro}
Peace
Guilty
