Patient, my fate is highly favored by the father, love to all Rest in peace to Zah Noo the barber brought cases Celebrate and take it back to thought The real New York Death to rapists and rats, the touch school to Brooklyn stories The king is the life to lord and queens All the stories of Puerto Rican righteous I heard things Know some people who know some people Getting money, broke people claim you owe some people It's easy to explain anything to a real liver of life Who lives where you live and see shit the same Gotta watch who you joke or get checked We easily mistake jokes for disrespect Where I'm from, it's never over if Somebody dies, somebody gon' ride Years later, somebody sons double 4-5 You laid up in ICU, hoping you survive Too many stories like this one What's shaking? My fate is highly favored by the father, peace to all (Peace to all, yeah) Patience My fate is highly favored by the father, peace to y'all (Peace to y'all, yeah) What's shaking? My fate is highly favored by the father, peace to all (Peace to all, yeah) What's shaking? What's shaking? Uh, yeah Somewhat caricatures, Amateur Boys I'm like a classic pianist with a handful of swords Bandages on, my finger still are managing chords Like a live band, performing in a sand storm Blind and still I hit the right keys Swift as a life breeze dripping In fear of God, scented in antique fragrance Some nights Cree, flavors I am motivation, I don't talk with the next man, I am never hating This daily bread, holy bread Alphabetical numerals, codes of red What's more dense, gold or lead? What's more expensive? The OG said, no matter what it is, rent it And never buy it, it's all temporary possessions We don't own nothing on this Earth but our soul and that's the lesson Project apartment parties, rest in peace to Marley Try not to get booked by Officer Lavarti What's shaking? My fate is highly favored by the father, peace to all (Peace to all, yeah) Patience My fate is highly favored by the father, peace to y'all (Peace to y'all, yeah) What's shaking? My fate is highly favored by the father, peace to all (Peace to all, yeah) What's shaking? What's shaking?
