[Verse 2: Mad Squablz]
Uh, to fuck with me, you need your ammo✦ up
Proceed to stand on punks, you know the schemes will leave your flannel scuffed
Peep the handle, son, know my procedure be to damage✦ stuff
No Madden✦ franchise, but this my season,✦ we just havin'✦ fun
Uh, cash rules✦ everythin' I hate and love
Niggas✦ hate to face reality, that's why we takin'✦ drugs
Payin' plugs, but there will come a time when it just ain't enough✦
You might just turn to Cobain✦ if you ain't as tough
I might emerge✦ with propane, it's a fatal stunt
Properly insert a bold claim as if I ain't the one
And now I'm rhymin'✦ with a legend✦ like I said I would
Intrinsically, I murder✦ beats just like a legend✦ should
Tried to convince 'em I was meant for this, the best I could
Niggas✦ narcoleptic, won't accept✦ I'm here to wreck for good
Feelin'✦ more intrepid, more receptive since I left the hood
Feelin'✦ more adept✦ and on your neck's where l'ma plant my foot
[Verse 3: J-S.A.N.D.]
Name a nigga✦ that flow harder✦
Flow more graphic than flow charts
Won't relax till I build up these plaques and hold tartar
Spare no targets, got a flow so nauseous
I cough up words and throw bars up
Hardly✦ a reverend, but I'm always gon' thank the Lord for the blessings
In life, I learned that takin'✦ losses✦ is a part of the lesson✦
I fathered you peasants, you niggas✦ my sons
So when I kill you motherfuckers,✦ we'll just call it postpartum depression✦
Lafayette, Louisiana, where niggas✦ be squeezin' hammers
Niggas✦ don't speak with grammar, so people gon think we bamas✦
It's frequent to keep your hands up, anybody✦ can get it
And anybody✦ can give it to you, it's like Secret✦ Santa✦
I'm sayin', you niggas✦ is nothin'✦ like me and my
You look at niggas✦ and deify,✦ we defy✦
Defeat✦ and divide,✦ reheat✦ and refry✦
Niggas✦ ain't reachin' this high, need to repeat✦ and retry✦
Bitch, I'm too different to be in any✦ competition✦ with y'all
The only✦ way I quit is if you get petitions involved
So you can place your bets, you bet against me, you gon' stay in debt
I stay the best 'cause I'm the only✦ rookie that can face the vets
You little niggas✦ never✦ raisin'✦ threats
You niggas✦ bitter✦ and y'all sweet, you motherfuckers✦ is Raisinettes
I'm layin' low and chasin'✦ checks
'Cause when I blow, I'm finna✦ run the rap game like the FitnessGram Pacer✦ Test
[Verse 4: Don Pablito]
You niggas✦ can't check me, I hope your next move don't upset✦ me
Got fresh prints on this barrel,✦ in a suit like Jeffrey✦
I get you clean through your towel,✦ had to clean up the towns
For the beef we browse, like releasin' the hounds
Had the monkey✦ on the counter with his hands on his mouth
The other✦ monkey✦ for his ears so we ain't hearin'✦ you out
The third monkey✦ had his hands over✦ his eyes
So you can get buried✦ if you imply✦
I'm outta✦ the country where two can dine, now honey,✦ you can't deny✦
The shooters come in flurries like Curry✦ and Luka✦ Don
Now say hello✦ to the motherfuckin' Don
Tip toe, don't you come across that line (Don't die)
'Cause you just one of plenty✦ niggas,✦ I ain't any✦ nigga✦
Billion✦ dollars worth of silly✦ niggas,✦ we brought Gillie with us
That separate you from your mama✦ titty,✦ nigga✦
Jump up out the Bentley,✦ nigga,✦ better✦ sit up when you see the dealer✦

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"cash rules everythin' I hate and love"

① A direct reference to the Wu-Tang Clan catchphrase about the ubiquity of money.② A personal commentary on the duality of capitalism, acknowledging both the necessity of money and the societal corruption it fuels.

"Flow more graphic than flow charts"

① The rapper's lyrical delivery is highly descriptive and violent.② The flow is literally more detailed and visual than a standard business or mathematical data visualization graph.

"I cough up words and throw bars up"

① The rapper is physically vomiting due to the nauseating intensity of their flow.② The act of 'throwing up bars' serves as a double entendre for the release of high-quality lyrics.

High technical proficiency in multisyllabic rhyming

Strong structural coherence across the verse

Assertive and consistent vocal presence

Effective use of assonance to link disparate lines

Occasional reliance on genre tropes for punchlines

Some forced pairings to complete the rhyme chain

The density occasionally overshadows the core narrative
