Kweli and Raw
You can be sure that we got our eyes on y'all
Watchin' different artists rise and fall
Mother fuckers jumpin' ship like we came to rob

the labels only after paper
Manipulate the fucking brains of all the rappers trailing behind
Cause while the ratings climb
The list of artists rise
But when

on the beat, you know I'm cookin' with that
Come a long way from some Mizzou-ligan trash
Now the bank account it's as true as the tracks

Bridge
New artists

in, I aint got time to loose
Count me in, Artist on the rise
Count me in, My eyes on the prize

From rags to riches, I did that
Ran through cities, I

the ball
We beat you with the bat

We don't playback tunes
And we win three straight rounds
In this town we send sounds
To burial grounds

Make dead artists

watch this artist rise up and mess up system
You can take my time
But you're not gonna take away this light of mine
And you know imma let this

specific
How bout the typical artist who rises from the trenches
And puts a curse on these rappers with nothin explicit
Takin it back a decade, I was so

fashion, high art
cll artist to rise up
The passion drives me forward
I ain't going nowhere

Forget about the music
Forget about the lights
I started from

recognized as the artist
Darkness rises to embrace me
I am a soulless monster with a lack of remorse
As you die I am reborn. So different now - I am

Nice and easy, me just keep it simple
Me sit back and watch all you buss like a pimple
Artist a rise, music sink like a dimple
Me hotter than the sun,

phone They want a deep throat
People calling me a god I feel like Deimos
Coming in the game like I be using Every cheat codes
Now you witnessing
An artist

Cause I’m armed and ready
Artist on the rise
Bitch I know you read it
Droppin’ fire shit like it's Armageddon
You may got the numbers but I got the credit

to get mine

Ain't worried bout these haters
They been on the decline
New artist on the rise
Better read the headlines

Started from the bottom
But I'm

dont talk under my breath
Wear my heart on my sleeve
I dont got shit to hide
Showing love to artist on the rise
I can get it to you 100 for the 5
House

I’m a artist on the rise
Remember rocking hand me downs that wasn’t my size
Nahhh
Ohhh
Times can get hard I know
You feel like you all alone
But you

Artist recognition
What I'm trying to see
I'm still trying
Thinking bout the shit I seen
I don't want my son to see
The truth I know the world

chasin pussy 
Pussy blowing up my line 
Artist on the rise
Star in my own eyes 
You hatin ass niggas need a job or get a life
Big ass wedding ring

eyes
Especially since your little  brother was an artist on the rise
He said "shit, life's crazy brother" just like my baby's mother 
I don't stress who

take a scientist to sum it up
Everything there is...
Would that be good enough?
All the artists on the rise
Mostly become dumb
Making bad music for

Artist on the rise
Top student in Clare's and Kai's
Before the rappin' took the reigns
I was lost
I was drained
Student by day
Local by night
Thin line
