Far Left
Written by Vic S.
I’m that boy that ran through the dope game
Holding propane screaming I’m sane
Devil bout to blow me out my frame
I’m, fully exposed with no shame
Me and the fool one in the same
Hands grab pavement as I’m running in my lane
On all fours, beast-like wild and deranged in my brain
Soul so tainted
Soul painted
So strangely
Soul panging against the walls of this prison
Buried under the dirt of a planet undiscovered
Close to its core
Sealed inside a vault with no locks
Devil mocks
As this odd earth moves too close to its star
Cannister I’m holding succumbs to the pressure
I’m consumed by the flames
With no space to run back
Somehow ended up here
Where they amazed to learn that
I used to run crack
Took G to cook it
He took me down south
Crooked paths through them Carolinas a straight shot
Pull weight off a stray dock
Or cross country at train stops
Either way came by steam engine
I’m pitching that green venom to white women
That cream girl to black men and
That brown boy to whoever’s left sinning
Weed smoke clinging to my levi denim
No joy in the law like a Levite grinning
Avoiding them bars, cuffs, paddy wagons, and back seats of crown vics
Suburban flips fueled by out of town trips
I’m up the street from POTUS
Fiends like locusts
A slight plague
Momma your first borns dead
That explains the flies I swarm with
Drinking blood from the river when that firestorm hit
Hail,
I draw heat too
Diseased beef I eat through
Lice and gnats in them projects I creep through
Skin boils, them boys feeling froggy
I’m ready to leap too
Claiming vision in this darkness
My sight deceived too
We holler god body
You hit us we bleed through
Fitted caps, white t’s, and clean shoes,
It’s no truth here
Peace boo
It’s the devil or ourselves that we worship
It’s the devil in ourselves that we worship
Born worthless
Born hurtin’
Embracing that pain
I’m Jason Bourne working every angle
Searching for identity,
Begging for indemnity,
Bargaining with the enemy,
Cutting side deals with God
Shoutin’ give me more blessings
I’ll give you none of me in return
No repentance or turn
Cold heart, seared mind
Divine movement cleared mine
Now aware of my depravity
The weight of sin,
The sheer gravity ravaged me
Now it’s new life in Christ
Still these flows haunt ya with my past
Look,
I ran streets and moved dope with no conscience
It’s astounding now that I’m so conscious
I live life with no mantras
Only biblical truth on my tongue whenever I confront monsters
Tryna shake ‘em up
Praying God wake ‘em up
From death’s slumber
Like he did I
Gave me eternal life…
