about

Here's a weird video for the song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkoS8z1LgWU&feature=youtu.be.
this song is about ladders.

lyrics

(Verse 1)
You can catch me in Japan
standing on a beach
snatching the grasshopper outta
my sensei's hand
til his blood in the sand
Total dominance the crux of plan

Fux witcha man
a duck in the hand
is worth two in the sedan
damn

Victory is seeping out my glands
niggas cloud the lane up with that spam
they don't know how to jam

I take it back to where it began
smash your girl in the van
like yams
give her a couple grams tell her
scram

I'm operating witta purpose
went from shoveling shit wit the hermits
to ringleading the circus

Why would I only scratch the surface?
I'm tryna flourish
I need a surplus of chips and servants

I need a rocket ship
I need a philosopher's stone
I'm on a power trip
and no I'm not coming home

They counterfeit and they clone
they're bound to quit and it's known
that's what a coward is
me, I'm mountainous

Chorus x2
I live life on the line
You would lie to live
Me? I'll never lie down and die
My down is the sky
My up is the limits of the universe
shifting, and I'm down to climb


(Verse 2)
I learned fast
no amount of earned cash
can turn an unlearned scag from dirt bag
to someone not worth laughs

Change gotta spring from the center
and not come out of a money vendor

And not come from a mechanical construct with a gas powered engine
or a tyrannical leader giving you a license to position

yourself over another's existence
I'd rather you love me from a distance

life's a bitch
now insert witty line
about how even though she
bitchy, you still give her all your time

You love the drama, it's heavy on your mind
it's petty and you find

You didn't do the exercise to hold back the tides
drowning in the future
fist-pounding Lucifer

Thought you had balls big as two Jupiters
and now you hanging by the uvula
'til you older than Methuselah

I hope God knows what to do wit ya
