[Intro]
Yeah. You know they say insanity is doing the same thing
over and over, and expecting new results. It's time to evolve.
[Chorus]
Ducking the law, when I ride with my dogs/
No time to catch a case. Man it's time to evolve/
My family straight, gotta ride for the cause/
We entrepreneurs. Man it's time to evolve/
Been at the bottom, no more riding along/
I'm taking my chance. It's time to evolve/
I seen 'em rise, I seen 'em fall/
But that ain't my fate. It's time to evolve.
[Verse 1]
This the rise of ATLantis' apparatus/
The canvas of which I paint is a matter of
Jacob's Ladder/
The madness risen from pain from battered industry
chatter/
Deranged. Been this way since I came and my dreams
shattered, dog/
Right in front of my cousin after the pact was made/
We're never going back to push packs, it's like a masquerade/
So many different angles to validate what they had to say/
My family looking at me like "grab some paint, til that
rapping pays."/
Disappointed, disjointed from every angle/
Dance around the subject of failure, but never tango/
I pray to God and his guardian angels/
You gotta pardon my angles, the strength of my brain is
way beyond what y'all able to label/
Ingenuity, mixed with a fixed maturity/
To get these chips and flip, instead of the sickest
jewelry/
The rhyme veteran, I'm better than you last heard/
You gotta learn where I'm headed, it's such a
fast curve/
Rap nerds can't decipher what my life was like/
Every night was like the title in a prize fight/
Trying to make the means justify the ends/
Same way I let the beats justify my time with friends.
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Bread and butter, time to feed the babies/
Saving dollars, haters holla, ain't no time
for being shady/
Doing dirt by my lonesome/
Rap crews, got 'em folding/
Know I'm 'bout it: Lord willing, got a team?
I'll promote 'em/
Got a dream? I condone it/
Get your cash up/
Bag it up like plastic cups/
Spilling game on 'em, know they passed up/
Renovate the room/
Gotta penetrate the rules/
Went from innovative fools to premeditating
doom/
I done been here/
The product of spectacular venacular/
Seen rappers dressing like they're trekking back
to Africa/
Talking black lives as long as their cash rise/
Chastised by the realest, I spit til they're
baptized/
Uh!/
I can break down motives like car motors/
Beyond dope. The flow manifested as God's
chosen/
Who gon' approach?/
It's all sweet until Jamar speaks/
Launch beast with precision, my vision is shark
week/
Agh!/
The simple minded get declined when I spit a rhyme/
You don't get it? Just imagine if I was Pharaohe Monch/
Parallel to Paragons, you can tell your moms/
Preparing bombs with my squad on Korean time.
[Chorus]
