The Male Oprah

from More Than My Skin by Tres Carter

lyrics

RIP NIP, early bird hustle
Mental on mogul, had to study Russell
Studied Daymond, Studied Bezos, Studied Walton
Generational wealth, oooh, now we talking
Network at the auction, Tres VC shopping
Pitched a God sent plan to make abundant profit
Draft up the document, MontBlanc pen
Deposits drop in, in my brain I’m top end
Nothing created can stop me
Nothing imagined can top me
I’m automatic, you probably
Look who behind me
Nothing said can bother me
Nothing done can startle me
I’m a Carter anomaly
It’s inside me
Robin Hood apps, Telegram chat
P&L analyzed, sent a counter back
Class of ‘20 grad, go secure the bag
Don’t wait for mom and dad, pay off the mortgage on they pad
Draft a document, send the wire in
Free and clear ownership, I can feel the shift
Of the culture
F a vulture
Keep evolving
Keep installing
Upgrade the hardware
Expand your jargon
Pray for the office
Stay at the auction
Wholesale I bought it
Retail I sold it
I’m never folding
I’m not a napkin
Employed your daughter
Surprised I’m rapping
Avoided trapping
Just got the download
And starting snapping
T-Pain classic
Been active
Not a bachelor
Ringed a bad one
Built a crib up
Brick by brick sir
Hand to Simba
Or young Nala
Young rider
Been a fighter
None higher
None flyer
My whole attire Venus inspired
This a pilot
Tape up my eyelids
Pray in silence
End the violence
End riots
Bring the justice
You can trust us
Skin mocha
Let’s get okra
The Male Oprah
Hold applause
I come with flaws
I run with Maud
But I’m fatigue
I can not breathe
I’m Carter 3
I come in peace
I’m here to reach
I’m here to teach
I’m here to preach
Not here for keeps
This here for Jesus
My only reason
All else is treason
The real Jehovah
No jab at Hova
It’s almost over, but
You are just His son, sir
He made the thunder
Owns the ocean
And all the boats in
All that floats in

I left that open hoping it would soak in
Deep condition
On a mission
Feel the tension
Stevie Wondered bout my superstition
Intuition
I’m an engine
I’m a witness
It will work out
What is fitness
I am finished
