Smiles and Cries

Sadder den violins
dread it like shark fins
Da fear of insufficient strength
to cast out ya own sins
the inner leviathan
ur rope is thin
gotta figga
which of the two of me
to free
and show yall
the other ima line on the wall
and have it speak its last thoughts
its I wish I dids and did nots
have it walk da green mile
send it to da firin squad wit a smile
and behold
dat version of me
is old
news
no longer sing blues
of what decisions to make
I know my beliefs
and the stance I take
you fake
niggas is sufferin
from the scourge I just executed
ya sense of self is polluted
the two sides of you
inside you
have you questionin
what you thought you knew
but damn you thought da new you
was da betta you
too true
dey runnin ya grey matter like two face
who had his shit together til he met da joker case
dat got him now confuse
now what to do
he flippin coins to decide if he gon kill you
betta call heads or tails
fore da curtain falls and both fail
Confucius say man who chase two hares catch neether
Like you stare at too many colors catch a seizure
ya see em in da movies niggas freeze n get caught slippin
sweat drippin
courage dippin
eyes twitchin
cause our split personalities
main cause of our fatalities
da nigga you are
plus the person you showcase
equals a reputation to outrace
like damn i created dis rep
it proceeds me so fast
like the student observed da teacher
an now he has surpassed
my girl trudy iterated
dat time's da best teacher
but its students is ill-fated
cause dey doomed to death
by dey own sensei's slow breath
so quick ya chronological allotment is done
pick a logical concoctment an run
play russian roulette wit one leadpiece
to decide which nigga will dominate ya headpiece
da you you is when you alone in ya dome
o da you when peeps invited to ya home
da you dats real wit dem true colors flyin high
or da figurehead guy
wit marionette strings on his fingerties...
