Chorus (The Core Message)
(High energy, repetitive beat)
Name don't matter, but the case do, yeah, the case do
They tried to sentence me, guilty, no trial necessary (Nah!)
Fuck a handshake, fuck a rumor, I verify myself
Middle finger to the snake, I'm focused on the wealth (Let's go!)
You wanna follow a leech? Go ahead, I'll be the first to say
I'm doing me, I don't give a fuck who I lose today.
Verse 1 (The Rumors & Betrayal)
I been loyal, I been straight, I gave you nothing but the vice
Now the whispers in the street, they wanna spin it, pay the price.
Heard the rumors, wanna talk, but y'all don't bring the facts here
Wanna act like you mad, but you just fueled by the fear.
You could've walked up, man-to-man, kept it 100 to my face
Instead you jump behind the curtain, running your mouth all over the place.
Fucking a na that trusts the lies, fucking a na that's weak inside
I got no rap for the p***y crew, you can take that bullshit and go hide.
Check the scoreboard, I stand tall, while you follow the decline.
The loyalty you speak of? It's a word y'all can't define.
Chorus (The Core Message)
(High energy, repetitive beat)
Name don't matter, but the case do, yeah, the case do
They tried to sentence me, guilty, no trial necessary (Nah!)
Fuck a handshake, fuck a rumor, I verify myself
Middle finger to the snake, I'm focused on the wealth (Let's go!)
You wanna follow a leech? Go ahead, I'll be the first to say
I'm doing me, I don't give a fuck who I lose today.
Verse 2 (The Bad Advice & The Line in the Sand)
That Joker talked to you, gave you advice? He wanted to see you Spaz out
Wanted your life down the drain, just to sit and watch you crash out.
He watched you fing s up, but you still running with his name?
I don't give a f* no more**, I'm changing the whole damn game.
But check this out, listen close, 'cause this where the line gets drawn:
Anybody rolling with that motherf*r? You are part of the dawn.
When I got beef with that body, you catch the static, no delay
Y'all knew me before him, but you chose to walk the other way.
I gave chances to speak up, for the truth to be told in the light
But cowards can't handle truth, they choose to run and choose to fight... soft.
(Optional line-out for the specific beef): Starting with my cousin, John—you a boot-licking lip, py.
Bridge (The Declaration of Intent)
(Beat slightly slows/changes, focus on determined flow)
F*** trying to help the lame, f*** the corny, tired of the drama.
I'm leveling up, yeah, I'm focused on the comma.
Get this money, get this paper, doing what I do best,
Credit up, paper up, putting the past to the rest.
Keep it pumping, keep it growing, going straight to the top.
Y'all stay down there, at the bottom, watching the clock.
I'm built different, I'm the engine, I'm the one who drives the plot,
While you're busy talking trash, I'm stacking everything you ain't got.
Outro
Yeah... No Trial Necessary.
The verdict is in: I'm winning.
And for the rest of y'all? Stay on you
A Dedication to Truth and Conviction
This is for the man I am, in all his names. Whether you call me Chief, or you know me as Black Scorpio, or you speak of me as Phil—understand this: I am one man, and I will be me.
I stand here, fully seen and unapologetic. I move according to my own code, and I don't give a damn how anyone feels about my actions or my direction. My path is my own.
To Those Who Stand Against Me
I have a message for anyone holding beef, nursing a grudge, or sitting in judgment of me.
Don't be a coward in the shadows. Stand Tall on it.
If you believe what you believe, be convicted in that truth. Don't hide that shit. If you think you are right—truly, righteously right—then live that truth openly and directly. If you can’t, then get the hell out of my face with that bullshit. I have no time for the passive-aggressive, background whispers.
I am a Scorpio—I will call out the bullshit when I see it.
My Position is Fixed
Let me be clear: No, I’m not a gangster. No, I’m not some tough-ass looking for trouble.
But I am the one who will Stand My Ground.
If you think I’m going to back down, if you think I’m going to surrender even an inch to you, you are crazy. That is a fantasy you need to take back to the soft place you came from.
To those who think beef is over just because a few days or a few months have passed: You are not from the streets. You are from some soft, Candyland type of lifestyle. Go back to where the bullshit lives and leave my life alone.
I don't bend, I don't break, and I don't compromise my core truth for your comfort. I do me.
—Chief (Black Scorpio/Phil)
