You know those times when your listening to music and a certain verse, a certain hook, something really reaches you. And you get lost in the moment and feel as if it’s your internal thoughts being spoke through the artist? While I was stressing, trying to fall asleep with a mind fuck of ideas of what I’m doing in the (near) future and what’s gonna happen once certain things occur; this joint came on. If you want new Crooked I (Slaughterhouse) click here, as this joint right here is over a year old. But I wanted to showcase the second verse (lyrics after the jump) and maybe it will reach others that are at the same fork in the road as me.

my attitude is failure doesn’t exist/
so if you stuck in a twist/
or in a fuckin abyss/
you know the rougher it gets/
there’s no cuttin your wrists/
there’s only pumpin’ your fists/
and finding something you missed/
…in your strategery/
haters try to block your path eagerly/
and put negative thoughts in your head to jam up your frequency/
frequently i secretly beat people around me/
to see if it’s negative energy they feedin’ me/
repeatedly/
then i cut them off, quicker than foreskin/
because the most horrible war for men is the war born within/
the winner takes all, you get nothing if you quit/
inspirational quotes, crooked on some bumper sticker shit/
i’m giving you the mental tools you need to survive/
before them cannibalistic dream killers eat you alive/
my dude these are the jewels, you can see with your mind/
so even if you legally blind, just believe in your grind/
i had a bad attitude, you couldn’t help defuse/
a little homeless kid in the shelter, i felt the blues/
stole kicks, put myself in someone else’s shoes/
still refused to brainwash myself to lose/
flashbacks of little crooked, 13 on the streets/
searching… for the very first thing he could eat/
nightmares of me leaving the earth, reaching for heat/
day dreams of me beating up beats/
