The Devil's Soul
 

Age is the rage of a cold youth…
which only success could heal some
I’m at a stage where I memorize old tunes
only to make me feel young
I’m steel strong the way I showcase myself
though it’s not how I feel inside
in no way lies help
But I’ll take the appeal with pride
It’s really a deprived timid designed image
How did I learn this craze?
It’s hard to be in high spirits
So I burned some sage & turned the page
This is just the life I chose
gifted with a wise guy oath
committed with the ties I hold
it’s twisted in this mind I own
I broke out of my shell
Thought I balanced evil & humanity
I clearly sold out to hell
& traded my weak soul for true vanity
It was a stupid kid’s illusion
The bad guy always lives up to his rep
Innocence had its confusions
What some would give up for respect
But of course that’s a given
cant remove urself from the urges
Most would do the same for clothes, cars & women
guilt breaks away from the person
robotic emotions do not translate fine
I feel nothingness
the sight of Blood can stain minds
while my zeal’s loving less
I’ve reached the pinnacle
Every kill gets easier
Meet the cynical
I remember still when the trigger’s squeezing hurt
Wealth is what I followed
Lost myself the heart turned hollow
Dealt the cards & swallowed
only me & my glock come to grips when…
they market the target
diaries of a hitman

Shrug and new port... I fed

really favoring the short bar style again. back in '98 everybody was doing it. i wish people went back to this.

good shit here throughout. too many parts liked to quote and break em all down. quality piece here none the less.

i liked the simplicity of the bar type and how you stretched a linear plot to something of your own liking. easy to understand and you werent trying to show off using elongated schemes like @dull boy and actually made sense. good job.

Cry for attention acknowledged @big baby.

Cut, dry, to the point. Kind of tragic. Some crisp schematics. Your topicals always have some moral fiber, some digestible truth,

Out of 5 elbow drops, I give it 3 and half elbow drops

nothing jaw dropping here... this was pretty descent though seems like you wanted to fit the words to your flow instead of flowing and letting your words go..... id say if i could try using a topic or maybe a beat that inspires you when you drop the next OM... good drop homie stay up!

Shut up bitch

lol

shots fired

^^ killer


Ive been using shorter lines too, definitely a cleaner style imo. good pace here, and the rhymes n wording were very natural. almost like spoken word. good stuff

yeah i felt the line Split quoted the most too

always much preferred this laid back steez of niks to his multi-heavy topical stuff

its more concise, more his soul laid bare, stripped back and raw with it

keep that pen moving
