NO MERCY NO FUTURE I woke up in the morning to the sounds of a clock tick It drove me kind of crazy something like a lunatic ‘Cause I couldn’t get to sleep the night before There I was thinking with the world I was at war Every move I made they were watching me No mercy, no future, you ain’t touching me I grew up kind of quick with the rebel mode Washing the dishes, making wishes hit the road Planning every single step that I was taking No faking and all of that shit I was shaking Off of my back now it was weighing me down From city to city, from town to town Sick of having nothing but bread for dinner Born a winner but back in the days I was a true sinner Soon I broke out of my shell and hell I raised And stayed away from all x-rays I knuckled up, pulled myself together and Became a better man Rougher than ever before, people didn’t wanna play In this to win this, amateurs stay away Away, away, put it to rest Put it to rest, and I feel possessed Not by the devil but by the Almighty For those who might be trying to hold me back you might be Beaten and thrown in the river Thank the lord, the Giver for the LP I deliver I used to try to figure would this ever get completed You bet your life, why (‘cause we need it) Alright for those who recognize me For when I was Merlin MC here’s a reminder Known for the B E A T (……) B O X Next then I start to flex The muscles on my lip, take a trip, flip, get a grip, grip Get a haircut you hippy I got a brain that be solid as a rock And I couldn’t give a ‘f’ about the new kids on the block Or markie mark in the parky park And hark the herald as I step in the darky dark Since I was a kid I was an mc villain Never ever been into murdering or killing But I’m a hard-headed, single minded label owner Gifted like Maradona, you’re a goner Bust out the lyrics and I come like Al Pacino You’re playing like you’re blind and you’re deaf you don’t see no Evil, hear no evil, whatever suits ya Everyday I’m thinking of the future But they be saying that I gotta have mercy No mercy – no future |
