The Interview Lyrics - Artifact

My characteristics be mystic, you ask who is it 

Doin' it, with the next type of techs runnin' through it 

The bullshit, I mean, rap style clean 

While I lean my six foot frame, Tame's the other being 

Seein' that niggas whack, time to take it back to basics 

Like Saucony sneakers or a pair of Asics 

Don't hate this analyst, hip-hop activist 

Battle technician who be on a mission, now listen 

Tame One got more grip than Gore-Tex 

I'm comin' through your set like CBS 

Writin' my name up in your projects 

Who wanna test me when I'm tested? 

Pushin' the paragraph like it's a Lexus 

I come off hot like Texas 

My West district predicts that I'm the shit 

So I walk through the bricks and shoot the GIF like it's a full fifth 

I bring the ruckus fillin' dutches with dust 

I spread love like Take 6 until the whole spliff bust 

We wish to diminish MC frauds who need to check 

Into a rap clinic, thinkin' that they all in it 

My message to those is right down to the core 

Kick your best MC and all his niggas through the door 

3-point offense, defense level high 

Stamina a hundred, leave your team ass dry 

It's still our nature to hate ya play you out like Las Vegas 

'Cause my crew's got more game than 16 Segas 

With adapters, battlin' whack rappers and actors for all their stacks 

And keepin' my family fucked up like the Jacksons 

Yo, you couldn't find my dab if you tried to use a map 

Or instructions, the number ones sold guns be bustin' so 

Best to recognize, eyes is on the prize 

Watchin' for spies who wanna piece of the lyrical pie 

Crews be flippin' like they really wanna die 

But when I ease up, they freeze and can't look me in the eye 

I got folders on the jokers who talk trash 

They never walk past 'cause I be checkin' for they hall pass 

Haul ass and let me shine like glass do 

When I die make a statue, I get in you like a tattoo 

I pay homage to all the bombers that I'm fly with 

Endurin' politics and gettin' paid off of some side shit 

I push niggas back who lack skills to hold their own 

Jackin' other brothers' styles way that they can zone 

Prone to dismantle your insides like Mickey Mantle 

My form lasts long, like trick candles 

You see the work of these rhyme experts 

That hurt niggas in cyphers and make the other states liver 

Survivors of the fittest light the graph then ASCAP 

Sen-S-E-I peep the next paragraph 

In all actual my style's wilder than a crack spot 

I'm ill in, usin' the putas you buildin' as my backdrop 

I paint a picture perfect with a thousand pencils 

From the back of Continentals, Lincolns, drinkin', thinkin' mental 

You better look through your girl's tape collection 

'Cause this next subject might have a nigga second guess 

I wanna do raps and get fat like Apache 

So I can get nasty and dis a nigga like a taxi 

My exquisite exhibit has facts in this specific 

Most niggas boast how they represent and come with it 

But whose the rudest boys, coolest with poise 

Artifacts be stickin' them with rhythm poise 

Is on the biz, Taylor skills like Liz 

Tryin' to save the culture, vultures wanna run the biz 

You hear my voice more clear, intact 

Peep the lyrics, trap my secrets 

Ill, like the film called 'The Curor' 

Questions, answers, brothers payin' dues 

MC's recognize, so we endin' this interview
