In this game, where all you've got is yo' name
Like Durk, I'm smirkin' at niggas tryna besmirch mine
Absurd times, where the fake get toted as wise

Never ran, never will
Besmirch the quarter mil
Movie cams on y grill

Ascend the afflictions of rain
Besmirch and appease, contribute relief
Forsake a solution of peace
