Royce da 5'9", Black Thought - Right Hand Man lyrics

Please be advised, that glory be to God
Spoiler alert: at the end of the story
We survive
Thinkin' about how lucky we ought to be alive
My day-one right hand was like a cyanide

Feelin' too thinner when I'm anorexic
Up against the blessin'
Better strategize my exit
My weapon's drawn with a right or left
I'm ambidextrous
I am infectious, I'm what history's corrected
Inside the eyes of a beast
That lies in the shadow
Who lives in a rеvolution and
Dies in a battle
For name and fortunе, through
The blood, sweat, and torture
In front of a smokin' gun
The slug that's an orphan
A box they brought to me for my son
That's a coffin
I would've taken his place, but lost him
Look what it cost him
We pledge allegiance to the nether regions
My right hand man break
Bones when gettin' even
For honor, country and state
There's not a better reason to wake up
Feelin' as if I've been tried for treason
My whole life had been a
Battle in it of it'self
My story feelin' like it
Belong to someone else
I hope for a sort of separate
The fact from the folklore
The constitution's a record I ghostwrote for
Stripes and stars I pay the gross quote for
That old broke blood-soaked flag that
Spoke for the victories
Fit the steez of a young canon
Who could click and squeeze
My iniquity is thick as thieves
With civil liberties gettin' fricassee
Am I willin' to die for it? Yes, indeed
So take ten paces and spin around
Plantation, put in the ground
Put 'em in the ground
Stash the right hand man, look around
Tried to take a stand but it took him down

My last right hand man turned
To snake in the end
He fooled me once but you
Know how them haters pretend
My left hand switched
It tried to switch back and make it amends
But gettin' rich after's the greatest revenge
We are soldiers of fortune, lyrical Odins
Swimmin' with the sharks and orcas
Deliverin' tortures
Poem send you walkin' to the holy gates
Another life I'm gon' erase
If you don't cut it like a
Butterknife, look, we ain't brothers
Not no relation
In a world where you gotta watch both hands
Like tryna tell time on a
Flooded iced Rollie facin'
Your watch is a square like your
Wrist is a different shape
I demonstrate 'cause you let niggas slide
They quick to figure skate
Silence is golden while I'm rollin' by
I spit it like I dipped the entire alphabet
In gold and stole a golden eye
I visualize pyramids
Then let my intellect build it
The truth is dead, nigga
The internet killed it
I got the power shiftin'
In the next building
Watchin' the World Trade
While my vinyl drop in the tower
Just to get third paid it's 9
11 when I rhyme a record
I may just record a bunch of somethin'
Outrageous
I was fuckin' drunk when I made it
So I may just call it what I wanna call
It like it's Kanye's shit
They call me Origami lured with the Glock
I tie your soul in a knot
Then after this, I'm out on tour in a mosh
They say the money can't buy happiness
Well I'd have to just assume that you
Niggas don't know where the shot
My cannon know when to pop
I'm drinkin' Henny' in my sleep
It's every man for himself
It can get stingy in these streets
If we ain't careful, watch
Your right hand man, look around
While you was biggin' him up
The nigga took you down
Watch who you givin' your trust
An inch to a mile
Put 'em in the ground, put 'em in the ground
Put 'em in the ground

Please be advised, glory be to God
Spoiler alert: at the end of the story
We survive
Thinkin' about how lucky we ought to be alive
My day-one right hand was like a cyanide

Down to catch a three to five
Over it's peace of mind
And guilt and foolish pride
But he had a ghoulish side
He staged revolutionary suicide
He load the black thoughts into his nickel 9
He had a state of mind that was too combined
He laid the evolution for the youth to ride
The definition of a coup d'etat
This is the definition of a true demise
This is murderin' cold blood in
Front of Koolie Ha
Now they kissin' my coke cheek
Like I'm Cochise
This a mixture of art like Muay Thai
