[Adderall XR 30]

These are shaky times
Society is in a great decline
Yet instead of taking action
Its patients mainly whine
And instead of facing facts
We face the great divide
With an engaged dispassion
And a strange attraction to crazy shine
Fine dining and tasty dimes
While homeless folks reside
Outside under a Macy's sign
In downtown Atlanta they incessantly beg
With their faces caked in grime
Laying in slime
It's a daily grind for young men
Hustling for a one-way ticket
To face their primes caged inside
A space designed to erase their drives
Till they resign to the fact
That their fate's maligned
While the crime rates climb greatly
I find lately that most of my old chums
Have either succumbed to that luck
Or they're stuck in Iraq evading mines
Maybe I'm just pessimistic
But I stay reminded of a lesson sifted
From an old sage
That I was blessed to kick it with

He said,

"To figure out a snake's design
You have to take the time to create
While the other's just trace the lines
Refuse to embrace the shrines
That the snakes have refined
To sedate the minds of those
Who were too lazy to find
Their own ways
It's up to each and every one to go chase
Their divine essence
Before the snakes make them their mimes
Unable to change the pace
And unwilling to pay the fine
Completely trapped
With no way to escape the bind"

Everything is fine right?
The economy's booming
We need a terror war
Cause' a mushroom is possibly looming
The Patriot Act's renewal
Means that we've gotta' be moving
In the right direction
Spewing rhetoric is shockingly doing
Our enemy's job

BLAH!

The economy sucks
If you don't have a college degree
Then you're probably fucked
And oddly enough
Even if you have the education
Chances are you'll still settle for less
Out of desperation
I'm not here with a revelation
I'm just thinking aloud
And if that's not your cup of tea
Then stop drinking it now
I've become increasingly wowed
By how much we seem to allow
Them to keep the crowd appeased
By constantly beating their brows
They're succeeding in shrouding
The meaning of being proud
To the point where
They're seizing our rights
And beating them out
Of the constitution
Their odd solutions are keeping us down
Hitting us hard from behind
Without even reaching around
Now I'm sounding preachy but how
Am I to eat with a sound conscience
While they're cheating us out of profound knowledge
To try and reason with these folks
Is like making peace with a clown
Cause' they'll squirt you in the face
As soon as your lead will allow
We need to speak to the few who will heed
Teach em to growl
Before our leaders reach in their bag
And begin releasing the clouds

It's all good right?
No need for trying to answer
Why a third of you reading this
Will end up dying of cancer
That could have been prevented
If you don't know, I'll school ya'
To survive these days
You gotta make sure that you
Don't let em' fool ya'

City of Sin


Ordered by New Yorks highest Order to capture
I obey like a Soldier as I border rapture
Naturally we gotta cut the head off the snake
Wars coming were outnumbered 3-to-1 in a shake...

The trigger finger lingers as I ready to kill
Hesitation hits me as the face fits the bill
Enemy eyes never lie and they beg not to die
Yet paralyzed by defeat the elite never cry.

The Gangs of New York banging Chicago clit
Clip soon to be emptied- I’m on top of this shit
This some prime VIP and the G’s will be proud
His fate awaits the late arrival of the NY crowd.

My heart rate escalates pending his assassination
Contemplating the weight of guilt by association
Held in high esteem this gangsta thinks he’s anointed
But held at gunpoint he’s gonna leave disappointed.

The clock’s ticking as the plot thickens around us
Two wanted vets yet only sweat confounds us
Every breath is tested by the thought of death
Waiting to rest a thirty-eight slug in his chest…

Several hours ago…
Staying low stalking him as though his own shadow
My heart thumping like their feet in the snow below
Chicago Hotel’s parking lot the prime spot to pop
His 3 bodyguards with headshots while the car’s stopped
I draw the thirty-eight waiting to fulfill their ill fate
As all four enter the doors my nerves begin to debate
Fuck it! I jump in front of the bucket and start spraying
Capping the two in front leaving back row praying
Car smashing into a poll as the dead man hit the gas
I jump outta the way- casualty toll about to amass
Hitting the pave *phew* I knew it was a close shave
Scarface escaped as the car sent his guard to the grave
Not one to be outdone a Tommy gun fit his grip
As the car exploded while he unloaded his clip
Stripped of his gat he lay flat out on the strip;
As I’ve almost completed Chicago’s biggest Mob hit…

Like a cold blade of steel his iron will is surreal
He’s a two-way mirror with nothing left to reveal
Thinks he can intimidate this G as things unfold?
This motherfucka better duck before I unload!

His execution’s the solution to my evolution
Setting the stage for the new age revolution
This O.G. will be the last Mob Boss to distort
The new reality that is the Gangs of New York.

The motel room looms over with the curtains hung
Only a lamp to define this hero yet unsung
Pacing the place face-to-face with a Mafia Ace
My mind bracing to waste this future homicide case.

The doors knocked as I unlock it holding the glock
New York’s finest arrive and abruptly dive into shock
Eyes locked onto the captive they deliver the shot
A cold shiver slivers down my spine as I finally drop.

Falling to my knees the breeze appeases my tears
Easing the pain of death leaving no remnants of fear
Steered into a set-up as I slowly take the fall
My bosses rush in to save the biggest fish of them all.

War on the brink and they think a capture and release
Will fool Al Capone and then prevent their decease?
Apparently to New York City the price of peace
Is worth a hero's death by many a cowards release...

A coward dies a thousand deaths. A hero dies but once.

[Atheist]

Adderall... this was one of the better pieces I've read since I joined the league. The flow was IMMACULATE, rhythmically exceptionally with perfect word usage and rhyming. The schemes were hectic and intense the entire time. Alot of people when they write rhymes, they don't really know how to make the rhymes ADD to the piece completely, but either you know how to do that specifically, or your way of rhyming just has that effect. I don't think I've seen a scheme stretch in ANY of your pieces that I've read. You have a way with words that I don't think anyone else has in this league, just my opinion... not to mention reading your shit is great for an emcee like me where everything in life it seems is backed by a beat...haha. This piece, in my opinion could beat anything at any given time...

Operatoonist: OK, yeah, this was entertaining as hell... I enjoyed the stories progression, the breaks in intensity and the overall direction it went. Unlike Add's piece though there were some rhymes that I couldn't really vibe with, I felt some of them, if not stretched, just kind of out of place maybe. But unlike alot of the stuff I read on here, most of that didn't take away from the piece's overall quality, as much. It seems you have the ability to rhyme a little more complex then is shown in this piece, and perhaps you chose to stay simplistic in your rhyming to benefit the story's clarity, if that's the case then I can respect that, otherwise, the rhyming wasn't very impressive in alot of the verse. BUT, this was still an entertaining read, despite that, in my opinion it didn't really hold it's weight against the force of a piece that Adderall dropped.

VOTE: Adderall XR 30: Dope match up though... Adderall just came incredibly strong this week.
