ZENtheRapper - Crown Me The Villain Lyrics

Now I ain't giving it to him, Vincent
I'm buying something for my money
Wanna know what I'm buying Ringo
What
Ya life
I'm giving you that money so I don't have to kill yo ass
Whatever you say
You feel me

Admittance to the system is not my reason for livin
Scribble n spit till its wisdom, send em trees through the prisons
Dismiss of please and permission, you have the right to decease
That's how I'm livin
You have no rights to my peace, that shits a given
And it came from the trees, the seas, and these visions
I seek the seeds that's implicit
Then plant the trees that feed the needs of the children
I'm off in the breeze, coughin up seeds, chokin on the leaves of a lemon
They turned my coffin to tea, the price of independence
I push this soul just in hopes that the village listen
I'm over da penny pinchin
Bipolar, go solar in any instance
I told em, I wrote em, then I sent em tickets
My totem explodin wit many chippins
My soul might be older than pretty kitchens
My tour got me soarin the city distance
Make em sit and listen
I'm missin forgivins
I can admit I was distant
I can't forget they was trippin
I was so gone on a mission
Broke my poem outta prison
Main event, hit the signal, Sunny Liston
They came and went
But my quill still drippin
They on the fence
I made this trip's decision
Left em down there diggin
I take the mountain's position
I hope the lord can't forgive em
I hope they burn with the Christians
Make me proud to resist em
Sing it loud to my children
They tried to crown me the villain
I'm in the crowd when I'm swimmin
Make me proud to resist em
Sing it loud to my children
They tried to crown me the villain
I'm in the crowd when I'm swimmin

There's this passage I got memorized
Ezekiel 25:17
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides
By the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men
Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will
Shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness
For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children
And I will strike down upon thee
With great vengeance and furious anger
Those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers
And you will know my name is the Lord
When I lay my vengeance upon you

I been saying that shit for years
And if you heard it, that meant yo ass
I never gave much thought to what it meant
I just thought it was some cold-blooded shit to say to a motherfucker
Before I popped a cap in his ass
But I saw some shit this morning that made me think twice
See now I'm thinking
Maybe it means you're the evil man
And I'm the righteous man
And Mr. Nine Millimeter here
He's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the Valley of Darkness
Or it could mean
You're the righteous man
And I'm the shepherd
And it's the world that's evil and selfish
Now I'd like that
But that shit ain't the truth
The truth is
You're the weak
And I'm the tyranny of evil men
But I'm trying Ringo
I'm trying real hard to be the shepherd
