Vigilante

Vigilante, hardcore, high-powered
I work too hard
Becoming hip-hop's Dexter, rap's Hannibal Lecter
Watch what comes out your mouth
Vigilante, very M-A-D
My mental state
Becoming hip-hop's Dexter, rap's Hannibal Lecter
Watch what comes out your mouth
Show reverence, your excellence has arrived
Your testaments are denied, they're pestilence in disguise
You best not miss the reprise of the finest rhyming specimen
Who even when the stent is in, your flows still won't be better than
That's a reference to angioplasty, Dan-e-o's nasty
But after the last three decades, too many have passed me
I hate then they ask me, "How does it feel to not make it?"
They think that they stripping me, leaving my dignity naked
Let me explicitly state that your opinions don't define me
Been vocally grimey since first taking my throne in the 90s
Legendary so don't dare be telling me what success is
I'm rap's asbestos, when I'm in the house, I leave you breathless
Allow me to stress this, I eat so many shitty rappers for breakfast
I need a fuckin' lifetime supply of breath mints
Don't get it messed kid, these youngins may shine as stars
But without being charged, there's a killer behind these bars
Vigilante, hardcore, high-powered
I work too hard
Becoming hip-hop's Dexter, rap's Hannibal Lecter
Watch what comes out your mouth
Vigilante, very M-A-D
My mental state
Becoming hip-hop's Dexter, rap's Hannibal Lecter
Watch what comes out your mouth
You little chickens have gone fishing
my mission's bigger than bar spitting
Enriching this culture with laws written by God's vision
Commandment eleven: Dan is a weapon and thou shalt not step in
To rap in a session and think he's wack for a second
I'm like packages left in the street, call SWAT
Blow up y'alls block, reppin' old heads like bald spots
Don't get it twisted, history got me enlisted
In a gifted fraternity where insolence is restricted
You're addicted to love from fake followers you'd kill for
But something doesn't add up like a billboard
Tens of thousands on Instagram, but Spotify's miniscule
You frauds who lie are pitiful, part turkey like Istanbul
D stands full of pride, 'cause my longevity's earned
Test the dude, I'll lessen you like something you've learned
Step up and get burned, you will quickly quit your braggin' when
I give all you bitches the business like you were on Dragon's Den
Vigilante, hardcore, high-powered
I work too hard
Becoming hip-hop's Dexter, rap's Hannibal Lecter
Watch what comes out your mouth
Vigilante, very M-A-D
My mental state
Becoming hip-hop's Dexter, rap's Hannibal Lecter
Watch what comes out your mouth
