RETROSPECT
by Flowerbags

Verse 1: lvmont.
Born ready, standing on business, I'm never scary
Not ordinary, call me Taft the way my pockets heavy
I'm feeling petty, make your bitch scream like it's Tom and Jerry
Louder than the weed I roll, I got my own apothecary
I don't wanna talk if you not speaking monetary
No ifs, no ands, no buts, lil' bitch, don't need the extra commentary
Ay, wait
My aura gold, admirers colder than a broken shower
I'm black and proud, and now my fist is raising up for power
I eat the beat, devour, jealousy turn to green, they sour
All I speak is heat, I put a switch up on the fire flower
And you is Bowser, this isn't censored, that's the money counter
Don't even leave the house, so free I'm rhyming by the fuckin' hour

Verse 2: Nolan Lewis
These rappers is cute, but I'm here to collect, so run me my checks
Hit the stage and they vexed
Cause I could be serving 'em bars and serving 'em sex
Taking they breath like asthma 'tack
You know others give half of that
It's a shame how they grasping fame
But I'm here to stay 'til I'm having that
Now they mad, but just stick to typing
That's getting old, you should seek retirement
All these phobias running rampant
Ride for my t-girls, Val' and Lyman
Endlesscontemplation just the starting station
Decade later, reaching destination
But I'm so impatient, Ima make it

Verse 3: Flowerbags
Credit where credit due, bless who I'm indebted to
But you won't catch me putting any artist on a pedestal
Except for Drew, hustle minded, jam packin' my schedule
So every time I put the pen to pad it's like the rent is due
Seen people trip on ladders trying to get ahead of fools
But every time I let it slide was worth it, don't regret a chute
I'm bored of games, haters guessing who but couldn't get a clue
To come up with a rhyme for words like meta and vendetta, dude
Ain't hit my peak, no room for dreamers in my club
Fuck who sleeping on me, this for the ones that wake up and get shit done
Back in the day couldn't catch any break, so I had to go take one and back it up
Entered the rhyme zone, nose to the grindstone, came out alive and I never sucked
Any mic I touch, give it a shine like I'm Midas
Reuschlein in the gold mine, and the diamond's rough
Eye on the goal, trying to annihilate the vile, I'mma line em up
Not sparing a right winger, pro lifer, any asshole driving a Cybertruck
I was up that pipeline 'till I saw light, made a mind right, used my common sense
This for the ones following broke promising, don't fall for it, it's obvious
Y'all ride with a misogynist, apologist of nazism and violent threats
That's for the talkative and all of the no commenters hoping to ride the fence
You're part of the whole problem, and you can't water me down, check my intent
I don't fuck with any republican, and a zionist can get decked
I'm gon' call it out and rip the bottom out of that whole top one percent
I'll shift the paradigm in my lifetime, and I'll always rep my set
Hindsight 20/20, you doubt me, you'll regret it in retrospect
