"Number's Up"
Verse 1:
Till the casket drop, I'm goin' in like drills; it's game time
Practice runs, throw shots 'til the caskets come
Give me 20 suicides, I don't mean that back an' forth
You think you number one, I push you back to fourth
I'm that better, another level, back wit' a vendetta
Nigga, it's now or never; on my post like a letter
Interstellar, I'm at a point too high for most to reach
Cosmic paramount, tighten niggaz up then air 'em out
They don't feel me, but I won't let that issue kill me
I let it fill me 'til it builds me up, remain illy
So silly, claim trill, but all fraud -- no Harry
Niggaz diggin' graves, now it's high time to bury
Bacdafucup, the gloc turn into Onyx, start singin' like Pentatonix
Nauseated clip... that mean it's finna vomit
This ain't gangsta talk, nigga it's just a warnin'
I'd hate to stiffin' you all up like early mornin'
Hook(x2):
I woke up, like, like "I know I'm gon' get it"
Got a plan in my head, so you know I'm all wit' it
When ya number's up, that's yo end of days
When the sun is up, time to get it, mayne
Verse 2:
Number's up, it's 'bout time for a overthrow
Flood the market wit' some killers; criminal overflow
School of hardknocks, I know what I'm supposed to know
Like how they move big birds -- chocobo
Death date, your fate's what my pen seal like Pocono
Go hard like morning wood when you wakin' up Pinocchio
Doper flow, top 15, aimin' for 10
Like a warhead homin' in on the Volunteer State
I'm all Silverback on my grizzly
Hybrid hustler, fuckaz don't wanna tempt me
solidified emcee, skill's a source of envy
Six-pack of whoop-ass, you don't wanna empty
Whooo... I swear I'm on a roll, A's an' B's
From A to B, ain't shit you can say to me
Bossin' up, pay the fee; I'm warnin' you, save ya team
You niggaz should quit runnin' on fumes an' save ya steam
Hook(x2)
Verse 3:
Lead us not into temptation, deliver us from beef
Testarossa retaliation, blood red spillin' in the street
That's my dream, so I gotta stack my cream to make it real
But I'm slackin' on my grind, how I'm 'posed to make a mil'
If I'm hustlin' backwards, moonwalkin' thru the hood
Life's a bitch, you talkin' like it's Meagan Goode
I feel I should throw it all away an' try to pass the bar
Or sell my soul to this game to gain money an' broads
Always been attracted to the fast life, I try to hide it
Fiend for mainstream rep, so my heart's divided
Between stayin' true an' sellin' out
But if you ain't sellin' shit, how can one gain clout?
These are questions that I ask on a daily
Got that Red Light rhetoric: Fuck you, pay me
Doin' without ain't good for my health
But I know if I want change, I must start wit' self
Hook(x2)

"#GranCabrio"
Must be something in the water, skill burnin' in my body
A nigga drive went from Chevy to Maserati
The flows keep comin', mind open like a lobby
So +Just Enjoy This Shit+ like Curren$y an' Roddy
These fuck niggaz dyin', got 'em turnin' in they plots
Say they spit crack, but always burnin' up they rocks
You should know, never get high off ya own supply
Frontin' hard, only sycophants condone ya lies
I put my heart in every bar like alcoholics
Sufferin' cardiac arrest; who wanna call it?
Style so .50 Cal vomit the way I spit it; I conquer
Need a devoted broad to give me head like tonsure
I'm a rollin' Juggernaut, you in my pathway
This right up my alley to send you out the back way
Give you nothin but +The Truth+, do it the Mack way
These broads only lookin' for ballers like Draft Day
Now let me shift gears, switch it up; blood, sweat an' tears
Lately I've been dyin' inside
Feenin' to give up, damn near dropped to my knees
Cryin' out to God 'cause I'm lackin' means to provide
All I wanna do is make it, so I grind 'til I collapse
Spillin' raps 'til minds blow on impulse -- synapse
Once time lapse, I forget where I started; hard bridgin' the gap
I'm one of few livin' his raps
Nah, this ain't no gangsta shit, but it's still trill
Somethin' you can live by, somethin' you can feel
Stay focused an' ride it 'til the wheels fall off
Seen niggaz give it they all an' still fall off
I dream of exotic locations an' foreign whips
Gran Cabrio, top chopped off like heretics
It's evident, ever since I was born, I was meant to make it
An' be bona fide, not makeshift

"#UnwrittenRules"
Hook(x2):
Open, focused, so put one in the air
Smoke one for a nigga 'cause you know I don't toke
Smoke one for a nigga 'cause he cool
We live by unwritten rules; mama didn't raise fools
Verse 1:
Above the law like executive branch
Fitted for American life, seams connectin' the patch
Sewn wit' excellent cloth, could never detach
Street-smart cookies formin' a excellent batch
An' what we didn't learn from the streets, we learned from rap
Older brothers or cousins are how we learned to scrap
An' when we learned to rap, we gained more confidence
Now we're on a mission for prominence
Dominance in this game, but first we need paper
See this money isn't everything, but havin' it means you're major
Savor victory's taste, I never needed spoils
Shots of motivation straight to the temple like holy oil
Battle in my head, used to drink to suppress it
Whole time God was speakin' I ignored the message
Stressin' 'cause niggaz wanna see me fall; bet that
Legs out, tryna trip a nigga in a jetpack
Hook(x2)
Verse 2:
I don't believe bullshit, need facts from the horse's mouth
Niggaz suss, so runneth the course for doubt
But I remain devout, givin' these snakes benefit
Niggaz quick to stab your back tho like they're drainin' spinal fluid
Call it how I see it, even wit' the blindfold
Nothin' to lose, nothin' to gain; don't know what they lyin' fo'
It's sad, even in beef, niggaz won't back a man
Over half the niggaz I know yellow-bellied like a Packer's fan
Rather attack a man for standin' by his beliefs
Get you caught up in attempts to bind you like loose-leaf
But I break free like my edge is perforated
Continue doin' me, that alone is worth the hatred
I'ma make it, not a soul can tell me otherwise
I know my worth, won't fall for a bunch of lies
Don't be surprised to learn you're really pathetic
'Cause niggaz blowin' smoke up your ass like a sex fetish

Hook(x1):
Only way is up, I cannot go down
Seen alotta smiles, I done seen alotta frowns
All about the paper, muhfuck a crown
I ain't gon' let you muhfuckaz keep me bound
Verse 1:
I just wanna burn dough like I can't bake
Spend it all before I cease to exist 'cause I can't take
It wit' me to the afterlife, a damn shame
What money does to the brain; see I can't wait
To have my whip game proper like a preppy lion tamer
Trunk full of knock like the boots before I came up
Hittin' pussy like animal cruelty
Pardon me, these are just dreams that fuel me
I love makin' music, you should listen 'cause
I put my heart in every bar, spit it wit' precision, bruh
Right now it's all business, I'm sick of love
Niggaz got a team of broads they cuffin -- prison bus
AMBSDRS, we got plenty mighty lines
Esco slang webs like Miguel in 2099
More pep than Bismol
Light this bitch up like Clark Griswold
Hook(x2)
Verse 2:
I eat jewels an' shit bibles
Proverbs from my psalms kill qualms an' rivals
Piss excellence, blazin' like which element?
No comin' apart at the seams, stitched wit' eloquence
Just for reference, been droppin' bars since a kid
Was a average poet, now I'm laureate
Wouldn't be me if I wasn't cocky
Confident for many reasons, who supposed to stop me?
I'm on top without bein' on top
They don't say it, but I know they keep me on watch
Thinkin' like, "I know he gon' blow"
Refuse to light the wick for superstardom to explode
Yo, like I said in '09
What doesn't kill me makes me harder, the formula to grind
I will reign forevermore
Shittin' big on niggaz like a fuckin' stegosaur

"#YouOutYaFuckinMind"
Hook(x1):
This my domain, man I do as I please
You out ya fuckin' mind if you steppin' to me
'Cause if you step to me, then that's beef wit' my team
An' we don't want the beef, we just came for the cheese
If this ain't the realest shit you niggaz done heard
You out ya fuckin' mind, believin' lies absurd
You should all simmer down, just break up ya herb
Roll it up, light it up an' sing-a-long to my words
Verse 1:
I'm back on my shit, gold bars -- insane alchemy
It's always cold hearts that bring flame out of me
I persevere in order to claim clout, undoubtedly
So I can spit in the face of peabrains who doubted me
I spout it to taunt lames that ain't bout it, B
You spit sicker than me? I doubt it, G
When it comes to real talk, they ain't countin' me
Fuck it, I'm out to get brain like the Lorraine balcony
Now we see you're counterfeit; retaliate? I counter quick
Haymaker without a fist, all out without a risk
Keep it brisk an' let it bang like a orgy in a mosh pit
Stop, bitch, cut out that twat shit
Insatiable like Golan, greedy an' want more
Just picture me rollin in Royces or on tour
I'm colder than Poland, know who you fuckin' wit'
Think my head swollen? Bitch that's my fuckin' dick
Hook(x1)
Verse 2:
I get real raw, plus my style is hardcore
Smell it like leak, drugged-up mystique out my pores
Y'all pussy, I hear you roar; paper Goliaths
Look menacin' but wouldn't pop a cherry in landica
Flow got more kick than Hidden Dragon, buckwild
.357 click like stilettos on marble tile
I harm the child thinkin' he can fuck wit' my flow
Who put it in yo head suicide's the way to go?
Think y'all emceein', bullshit y'all believin'
Still got milk on ya breath, ya ears is wet
Placenta all on ya back; how else should I put it?
You fall off the turnip truck chasin' the bandwagon?
I hear ya mans braggin', all that yack is fuel in my balloon
Hot air-powered; caught in crosshairs, now ya stares go downward
Afraid to look, snake eyes to the loser
Vaffanculo to ya ruler, that fool is a tool, bruh
I'm worth the wait/weight, holdin' my own
Backstrokin' in Lake Tahoe wit' two velour tracksuits on
My bars'll break ya digital scale or triple beam
I bring you literal Hell thru lyrical means
Rip a nigga apart under +The Burning Moon+
For lost souls that provoke, I'm yearnin' to consume
An' you don't know nann who'll deny my shit's hard
I'm out 'til I return wit' a bad bitch like Ishtar

"#DOPE"
I'm on a mixtape grind, got a debut album mind-state
Every time I go in, increase the Black on Black crime rate
'Cause I'm killin' niggaz discriminately
Givin' y'all quotes when I drop my shit like Lyndon B
Incriminate me but I'm the president, evident
Heavensent, murderin', dead bodies smell of a heaven scent
This ether comin' from my mandible, Godbody flow
Paramount, I'm above 'em wit' my audio
Niggaz hear my flow, think it's just about me
But I squeeze substance in along wit' a bounty
That means, I talk money when I spit that killer shit
Prices on ya head like Africans fresh off the ship
Wordplay off the chain like the stage play of Django
Think shit funny 'til the Galagher hammer bang, split ya mango
I change flows often, niggaz hate it
Can never figure out my scheme, plot so I won't make it
But I'm not gonna take it, in my mind's a quiet riot
Open my mouth, verbals stampede, son don't try it
I represent the G.I.A.N.T.S., that's my team 'til Galactus
Devours the world, but 'til then, we kill ya antics
Got it covered like prophylactics
My niggaz gon' shine an' the shine gon' be massive
You bastards, we fly high like the JETS
I'm from Memphis, Tenn; where you from? Throw ya sets
I don't gangbang, I just bang bars on the drums
Like them niggaz on stage doin' "STOMP!"
So here I come, hungry like a ravenous wolf
Been deprived too long, my panic buttons been pushed
Now it's OV, like I took a O from Drake's label
Niggaz wanna turn 'em, so I come an' take the tables
Come an' take ya label of bein' the best
'Cause I go harder, go farther
These bodybags I put 'em in designed by Goyard
So hard, I son you creatively, now I'm yo father
I know it fucks witcha when I brag an' boast
'Bout to be intercontinental an' goin' coast to coast
Pininfarina wit' my drive, live like my nigga Ant
What up, homie? Niggaz still sleepin' on me
They don't know me, an' lowkey it's got me tee'd
'Cause they fail to realize I'm hashtag D-O-P-E

"Get Familiar (#WhoIAm)"
I'm fuckin' Fineprint, a legend in the makin'
Best there is, best there was an' ever will be -- stop hatin'
Been at this 10 years, seems like many millennia
I'm your fate reincarnated; for lifetimes I been killin' ya
From the era where Marshall an' Curtis had it locked
Rap juggernauts wit' a hot cover of "Hail Mary" by Pac
Creme of the crop, lock, stock an' two smokin' sawed-off barrels
All y'all in peril
You're not above the law, I won't stand for grandstandin'
Give a fuck about ya flow, you an' ya mans, damn him
I hate you niggaz like a fuckin' Grand Dragon
Regal blows come quick, I hit you wit' Grand Rapids
Like my nigga Kellz -- so get familiar
Guap an' props; whose line's a lifeline wit' Regis Phil, bruh
My wordplay? Extravagant, yours' surd-abay
In 3 days you'll be finished, Bay of Pigs; heard me, mayne?

"Laidback (#TheSession)"
Hook(x2):
This just one of those laidback junts
Pour sumpin' up, roll up a blunt
Bitches aggravatin', fuck niggaz wanna front
Who want what? I guarantee, this ain't what you want
Verse 1:
Now this shit here? Play it in a session
Smoke one for a nigga 'cause he cool as cold compression
Goin' for the green, mind-state: recession
So much bullshit out, to hear me is refreshin'
I drop jewels like it's too much ice up in the bezel
I drop jewels of light, reflectin' on the Devil
Demons surround me, so I stay busy often
A idle mind's his playground, a workin' one's his coffin
God grants me serenity, I show mercy to my enemies
But I never show love, that's how they think we frenemies
My poetry in motion, haters will not hinder me
To be or not to be? Super-stardom or divinity?
Infinity an' beyond, I'm just tryin' to get a buzz
Y'all gotta put me on, I'm just tryin' to get some love
Fa'real tho, word up, this all about exposure
I gotta get my dick wet in this game before it's over
Hook(x2)
Verse 2:
Now this shit here? Play it for motivation
Fineprint's here to guide you to whatever destination
Choose ya own adventure as the flow stimulates you
Open up ya mind, it's designed to vacate you
Accommodated nicely, luxurious amenities
If you need peace of mind, this is the epitome
Helpin' you thru hard times like I help myself
Know that every trial just a notch in ya belt
Strivin' for wealth, procrastination's a roadblock
Every time I'm motivated, laziness gets me cold-clocked
Feelin' embittered an' out of place
Despite all that, I still keep faith
Disappointment makes it hard to save face at times
Especially when heart's applied to all my rhymes
An' y'all don't take notice, think I'm just showboatin'
But if I wanna be noticed, heh... I gotta show it

I'll be Gettin' It An' Neva Takin' Shortz, c'mon
Verse 1:
Fineprint's back in the buildin', Memphis been on the map
I came for the glory like that kid who made "Culdesac"
I'm still at the bottom, scratchin' my way to the top
All these crabs in a bucket, will bring you down for the guap
But I pay them no mind, worryin' can't define me
I stay Cloaked in the black, not even Dagger could find me
I give credit to God, it was He who designed me
But all of my trials, man, they helped to refine me
I'm still a work in progress, yeah, nobody's perfect
Flaws make us individual, now -- watch how I work it
I was born to brew up storms an' go hard in the paint
Time's of the essence, abundant is what it ain't
Cash Rules Everything Around Me, I can't lie
No longer takin' shorts for this CREAM; know why?
I gotta have it in each an' every way
That's the thought in my head each an' every day
Hook(x1):
That I'll be Gettin' It An' Neva Takin' Shortz, what up
I'll be Gettin' It An' Neva Takin' Shortz, what up
I'll be Gettin' It An' Neva Takin' Shortz, what up
I'll be Gettin' It An' Neva Takin' Shortz, ya heard me?

"#Goodbye (Fineprint & His Attitude)"
Intro/Break(x4):
Fuckin' Fineprint got a attitude
Hook(x2):
(Goodbye) I'm done wit' this Hip-Hop shit
I get no muthafuckin props for this
Verse 1:
It's Fineprint reportin' from the ghetto
Livin' in squalor, starvin', my stomach bellows
Wit' a growl, I'm fuckin' hungry; fuck status in this game
My current state is a shame
Physically free, my soul's chained; trapped like a djinn
Heavily depressed, spirits temptin' me to drink gin
Yet again, struggle on the white paper
Cyberpunk pengame, explodin' knuckle like a Knight Saber
Only associates like Orlando Draper
Nowadays, cliques start big then taper
But I keep grindin, make it on my own strength
An' I'll be shinin', Won't give niggaz a inch
Stay lyin', takin' 500 miles from you
Let 'em have that road to perdition, bring the bile on thru
Now digest that, fuckin' right I'm bitter
But despite it, the nigga Fineprint's no quitter
I have faith time's on my side like a pocketwatch
It's just in the back of my mind I hear "Stop"
Then I wanna give up, say sayonara
Cry my sorrow; it's goodbye to the horror
All this anger that I harbor is a wellspring, givin' me rhymes
Bars rollin' like assembly lines
Full of Weltschmerz, I contemplate humanity's ills
In my mind, I know how humanity feels...

"Author Of Aggression **Bonus Track**"
That Earth-616, Negative Zone; turbulent flow
A nauseatin' spectacle of antimatter
That heatrock, crackrock, bricks of mosaic in the trunk
Schedule II and V, more bang for ya buck
Let it bump, illness layered in the genes, em... bedded like bunk
Creative visuals of which I am auteur
Cuts like solitares, drop the best jewels
Lovecraft meets Apostle Paul for a game of pool
Holy shit that I scribe, scientific, self-absorbed like autistics
Rappers are statistics
Too simplistic, ya wordplay's a "Midsummer Night's Dream"
Underlyin' joke, under pressure like a autoclave-- save ya steam
I'm flyer than the meanin' of Kosovo
Namely the X-Men jet; a slave to the grind
Bars mutate like slaves in Genosha
Fuck the culture; kill the cypher, now you 10% of a pie chart
My art is non-conformin'... fascist in nature
Left-wing aspect, my heart pumps rage
Keepin' my blood boilin', simply a bastard on the paper
There's none like him, an' none like him
Omega-level cold, Bobby Drake penmanship
An' you just a lotta racket like Wimbledon
Low in sugar, fuck insulin; you sweet-ass simpletons
Patience thin as yo chest cavity I put the pencil in
Whooo... I use anger when I create, substance controlled
A Memphis-bred author of aggression, watch my saga unfold
Yeah...
A Memphis-bred author of aggression, watch my saga unfold
