Faulkner, Royce da 5'9" - Keep Your Enemies Closer lyrics

[Faulkner, Royce da 5'9" - Keep Your Enemies Closer lyrics]

We got distribution, Beijing, Belize
We got distribution in the air and seas
We got drivers waiting in our vans
Blueprint’s dry we don’t show you our plans
We got bail bondsmen on payroll
We read Machiavelli, Arthur Rimbaud
And I’m moving closer to my enemies
Want to sleep and breathe the
Air that they breathe

I’m in my enemies homes
I wear my enemies clothes be formless
Like air and water power is unknown

Nickle i said I started out trusting
People way too quickly
Life on the edge living too dangerously
Now it ain’t no mystery
That no weapon shall prosper that’s been
Formed or aimed against me
I keep my grass cut, low to protect isles
From rodents and reptiles
We throw them projectiles
Throw dirt on my name tearing Down
My identity instead of friends
I know the whereabouts of my enemies
I’ll be keeping them close to
Me so eventually hopefully
I can say that I found peace mentally
Socially who gon’ still be there when all
Of the drinks are gone?
None of them who were there when
All the drinks were flowing
You got a rider, a roller
Just know a coward is colder
That Patrón was something I
Definitely was powerless over
So I got me a lawyer, and I got me a shrink
No other out there's like me
My kind probably extinct but guess what?

I’m in my enemies homes
I wear my enemies clothes be formless
Like air and water power is unknown
