Yeah
I'm scared✦ of blank paper✦
Blank paper✦
So I start to scribble some ink
And smear later✦
Yeah I've gotten✦ on a plane
Jumped✦ on a moving✦ train
Cause more cred in my rep to gain
But lunatic is not the word I'm looking for
Cause this niggas playing a different game
But just have some Mary✦ Jane
To make things slower✦
Ready✦ to inject it to my veins
Then I get chest pains
A daily✦ smoker✦
Like the young Bruce Wayne
Better✦ to use slang
But I'm not insane✦
I'm fucking fucked✦ up in the brain
I just exploit✦
I exploit✦ everything✦
So everything✦ is exploited
Chorus✦
Welcome✦ to my exploits✦
You don't gotta✦ act like if you know me
You just know what I do
I make music✦ for all my listeners✦ and homies✦
I'm exploiting✦ my exploits✦
You bow down in shame
If you try to make me quit you ain't effecting✦ my game
Cause I'm always✦ the same
My lyrics✦ are controlling✦ my brain
Ill introduce✦ you to my exploits✦
Who'll be the donor
To donate✦ to the troubled stoners✦
And every✦ outcast✦ loner✦
So just welcome✦ to my exploits✦
Verse 2
Soul power✦
Soul power✦
Oh baby✦ I got soul power✦
I'm blooming just like a wall flower✦
Best believe that that flower✦
Will grow up to own towers
Have power✦
Never✦ be no coward
Oh no he ain't backing down
Not until he rocks this town
And comes✦ home safe and sound
You better✦ not sleep with your eyes closed✦
You better✦ leave one eye open✦
Cause ima✦ hit like a cyclone✦
You always✦ typing✦ them typos
Here's✦ a couple hundreds now go buy you some nice clothes
I'm just hanging with the right folk
Walking up and down the streets familiar light posts
I ain't take the shortcut I do work
Don't cut it in half like lipo
I almost✦ made it
Now that's not the right quote
I don't need your p.s. or side note
The right quote is fuck you
Stacked up in a totem✦ pole
Don't be a fool
I'm not mean its not called✦ cruel
It's perservience
Get close so we can all hear it
But we can't all beat it
I am undefeated✦
Bring it back and ill repeat✦ it
Cause I don't need it
I'm better✦ off without it
Most bitches✦ will doubt it
But that's just how it is
But you gonna✦ have to handle it
All about✦ that hustler shit
For me it fits
The perfect image✦ about✦ to cross the bridge
One side broken✦
One side taken✦
That doesn't make no sense
But I still hope this song makes✦ me filthy✦ rich
Ill be so dirty✦ dive in that green like a mud pit
Chorus✦
Welcome✦ to my exploits✦
You don't gotta✦ act like if you know me
You just know what I do
I make music✦ for all my listeners✦ and homies✦
I'm exploiting✦ my exploits✦
You bow down in shame
If you try to make me quit you ain't effecting✦ my game
Cause I'm always✦ the same
My lyrics✦ are controlling✦ my brain
Ill introduce✦ you to my exploits✦
Shout out to sophisticated✦ stoners✦
And every✦ outcast✦ loner✦
So just welcome✦ to my exploits✦
Verse 3
It's outback
Steak out
You in this or you call quits
I roll up and I take hits
I take it in till my throat slits
As long as it looks like fake shit
Its cruel judgment
Don't judge me
So what do you make of it
Perhaps✦ I'm off track
Perhaps✦ I need to lay stacks
Because I like money✦ in excess✦
To make this bitch bust her rack
After✦ that she'll be impressed✦
Perhaps✦ by the end of it all I would have tapped✦ that
And you won't be depressed✦
Maybe I would have a piece of that nice ass
Don't think to much its not a test
And then ill dress up in my snap back
Trying to look my best
Just another word for swag hat
Fuck a vest
In other✦ words I spit the realist shit
In other✦ words I'm pretty✦ fit ................
To be boss there's✦ no better✦ pick
I'm standing out,I'm someone✦ you won't forget✦
All bitches✦ won't forget✦ this dick
All chicks will be shiting✦ bricks
After✦ taking✦ a couple licks
But I do it just for kicks
Im the best rapper✦ times✦ six
Go ahead and watch your own picks
Cause this shit just getting realer✦ by the minute✦ ,it's survival of the fittest ,I'm pretty✦ fit but I'm no Gym-nest, just give me life cause I'm about✦ to win this bitch
Chorus✦
Welcome✦ to my exploits✦
You don't gotta✦ act like if you know me
You just know what I do
I make music✦ for all my listeners✦ and homies✦
I'm exploiting✦ my exploits✦
You bow down in shame
If you try to make me quit you ain't effecting✦ my game
Cause I'm always✦ the same
My lyrics✦ are controlling✦ my brain
Ill introduce✦ you to my exploits✦
Shout out to sophisticated✦ stoners✦
And every✦ outcast✦ loner✦
So just welcome✦ to my exploits✦

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

The verse relies heavily on internal rhyme density and a visceral, stream-of-consciousness delivery style, though it lacks the sophisticated metaphorical layers seen in OutKast's more polished later works.

Rhyme Architecture: A dense, high-frequency rhyme scheme centered on the 'ain/ane' vowel sound, frequently broken by internal rhyme bridges to maintain flow momentum.
Verified Doubles & Entendres

"I just exploit / I exploit everything / So everything is exploited"

① The artist is performing 'exploits' or creative endeavors/ventures.② The artist is taking advantage of or stripping value from his environment/experiences for his craft.

Exceptional rhythmic cadence that keeps the listener engaged despite the repetitive rhyme structure

Authentic, high-intensity performance delivery

Strong use of internal rhyme to bridge the gap between simple end-rhymes

Occasional reliance on cliché rhyming patterns

The narrative trajectory is somewhat scattered

Lack of complex, multi-layered double entendres
