I'm Ill
• Written by Swabski
This the type of ill that can't be fixed by a pill
This the type of ill that don't need a medical bill
I got my mind to represent me, got no ink or grills
I got a mind with many thoughts that can't be distilled
I be on my grind and fresh like a coffee mill
Just need a mic, and you know I'm dressed to kill
I might be mean, but I'm a man of goodwill
If I got obstacles I'll push through like a drill
Life's harsh but without bumps there would be no thrill
I live cuz I got dreams that I want to fulfill
It's easy to go down, but I'm going uphill
Everyone wanna be ill cuz it's high appeal
Music's my medicine, it's got the power to heal
But life in the present is backwards and evil
I gotta message in life that needs to be instilled
I hope you know that the message is I'm ill
*Chorus*
I be going past all my short and tall life hurdles
I be all defensive, like a shell over turtle
All ninja like teenage mutant ninja turtles
I'm a youngen my mind still fresh and fertile
I'm soft like fluff, and hard like a kernel
Yes I'm ill better get your pencil and your journal
Love for music's eternal like fire that's infernal
Fight against the cold world, better wear my thermals
Ya I'm in the spotlight, better raise them red curtains
Optimistic me never see life as a burden
You never know what the future brings for certain
Life is always feeding my passion that's burning
I live not only for the sake of it, but for a purpose
Sometimes I'm sweating but. I never look nervous
Cuz I gotta keep cool, stay calm on the surface
Like Spartans kicking down what's in front, cuz I'm determined
*Chorus*
I've had rough times but I know how to carry on
I be sparking and sizzling like Dom Perignon (Perinyan)
And if you don't catch my drift just carry on
Cuz I ain't forcing you to stay, go where you belong
Don't want fakes near me don't try to play along
Your thoughts are back and forth like ping pong
I'm going HAM like this is my swan song
If you feel what I'm feeling feel free to sing along
I wanna be king, I'm tired of being a pawn
The new throne is coming, pass the baton
No throne for you, the floor is what you sit on
Cuz I can be sweet or sour, or even hot like Sichuan
I'm taking over fast like Genghis Khan
And I'm staying like a stain that's never gone
Don't mess with me or I'll slip my cap on
Tell me I'm ill, C'mon
