[Intro: Shamar Talley]
Let the drum kick, uh

[Verse 1: Shamar Talley]
They wanna hear raps, rebels scrap metal with these flows
Bent like Magneto off hemp and dab needles
Tell 'em, "Smash the remote, deactivate the TV
Whether you're meditating or talk through graffiti"
You can walk with me, realize you're not alone
I follow an honest code and got us sold
I'm the goat 'cause the world's rotation don't wait
Impatience strays away placement
In this cold world, my people swarmеd in
Defrosted the gеnre like global warming
What is this? The beat throw me ballistics
Zeandre's flipped it like varial kickflips
Flows make head spins like three-sixty
Swiftly, see me in the inner city hitting weed
I hear the bullshit, it doesn't really get to me
Wordsmith, convert hits to history
All I have to say, there's gotta be a better path away
From half the ways since Colin passed away
I can't fabricate, nothing lasts forever
So get it while you have today and fuck what a coward say
This paper sounds like reality checks
So we can all pay attention, the game is in debt
Shamar Denal Talley, the name is respect
And Cranston's the place that created this fresh
[Chorus]
I know I'm gonna die
I know I'm gonna die
Way below the ocean or above the sky
I know I'm gonna die
I know I'm gonna die
Way below the ocean or above the sky
I know I'm gonna die
I know I'm gonna die
Way below the ocean or above the sky

[Verse 2: Terminal Knowledge]
Murderous geek grow up cursed with the burden of proof
But never heard 'em or spoke one word of the truth
Living dead yearn to return to the room
Kids infectious, sick in bed and been neglected
Crystal meth, herb and some Lucy
Cigarette burns in the furniture
Swerving a hoopty, cruise
The perp was nervous and loopy
Chicken head turned to a bird in a coop
She in repentance, serving her prison sentence
In attempt of a thirst of her independence
So bottoms up, bitch, yo, not for nothing
But I brought some bud and a box of dutches
Ganja puff from dawn to dusk then dusk to dawn
Pass grass like I cut the lawn
Flashback, glass packed like a muffler
Pants sag, ass crack like a plumber
[Verse 3: Acumental]
It's the anonymous invader with the ominous behavior
Wandering the neighborhood looking for dollars to attain
I'm Dean Martin meets Marvin Gaye, Marley and the Wailers
So you gotta find a way to tell your mom her son's a failure
'Cause on a scale of one to ten, we like a dozen
While you steadily been frontin' and pretending that you wasn't
Nothing but an envious curmudgeon with a budget
Going belly up, call your boy Benji to the Button
What a curious case, I'm in a furious rage
Ayo, the jury is out on these injurious lames, so
Let me put it in perspective
A lot of y'all leaders never should've been elected, so ​check it
We hella nice, Pennywise and Pound Foolish
The crown rulers, camo lights and brown mucus
It's round two, bitch, I'm back, put your dukes up
Do somethin', find me in the booth spittin' truth serum

[Chorus]
I know I'm gonna die
I know I'm gonna die
Way below the ocean or above the sky
I know I'm gonna die
I know I'm gonna die
Way below the ocean or above the sky
I know I'm gonna die
I know I'm gonna die
Way below the ocean or above the sky
