I'm just a picture in a frame
 
 Man, i paint word pictures on the canvas of life
 
 But i don't control the colors
 
  
  Yo, i'm ten steps ahead of niggas, that shit scary
 
 Sometimes i feel ahead of myself
 
 I hear this voice in the back of my mind
 
 Like mac maintain, just grind, dog, better yourself
 
 So what i do?, i take heed and pick up the pace
 
 Can't explain it when i pick up my son & look at my face
 
 I'm like a black rose growin' in the concrete crack in the pavement
 
 There that voice go again mac practice for greatness,
 
 Get paid for them immaculate statements
 
 Keep thinkin of them hotlines, like a physic, i can't explain it
 
 There's no pen when i write it, there's nothing like it..
  
 
 God damn, what you want from me, what you want me to tell you huh?
 
 Niggas thought that i would stutter huh, thought i was dumb
  
 
 But i ain't used to use my mind, i used to just... use my 9
 
 And run wild with my boys, in the streets wild with these wars
 
 Now the qu'ran and 48 laws, they polish my floors
 
 I'm moving niggas like puppets with no strings attached
 
 It's nothin' for beans, so you know it ain't a thing for mac
 
 To look in your eyes, see through your heart, know what you fearin'
 
 Pick you apart, like you niggas is transparent
 
 (i see right through you niggas)
 
 It's like mac was born with advanced parents
 
 I'm like the sun shining at night,
 
 Imagine it dog, i know you wanna see me gradually fall
 
 But i'm walkin on air, braking every gravity law
 
 Nothing like it...
 
 I spit words that skip through air
 
 Let the words of a true thug hit your ear,
 
 It change colors like blue blood when it hit the air
 
 It's nothin' like it...
  
 
 God damn, shit, i can't explain it
 
 Fuck y'all niggas
  
 
 I changed my whole life.. in about 9 months, just like sperm in a womb
 
 These young niggas never learn 'til they doomed
 
 Try to tell them you can burn young punk, without smelling the fuse
 
 Make you shiver in the middle of june,
 
 Paintin' pictures so vivid, you can hang it up in your room
 
 Shine bright like a prism, displaying colors like crayola
 
 Think of the prisons with straight soldiers
 
 Think about the niggas who fucked us and played over us
 
 Think about the mothers who suffered and prayed over us
 
 Just look at the the picture i've painted, it's so perfect
 
 Open your eyes motherfuckers, you can't duck us
 
 No survivors every soul shall suffer,
 
 I'm loadin them revolvers every shell shall touch ya
 
 I promise i'll light your ass with these mags, i'ma bust ya
 
 God damn it's nothin' like it, i'm serious
  
 
 Can't explain how i write it..
