...

Of course they talk a good game like a corporate lawyer
Or a sports reporter, a whole smorgasbord of...
Lies from the jail cells to the warden's quarters
It's cap on top of bull like the Georgetown Hoyas.
Giving them an inch always means more extortion
It's like Al Pacino and Keanu in the boardroom warrin'
...yeah...
Y'all thought it was peace, still thinking Bora Bora
While we're on the frontlines like it's Jordan's borders.
Orcas in the water ain't the Dumbos in the room
They're the red herring when the guns can go ka-boom.
They'll sacrifice a rook just to move in on your Queen
Thinking 3 steps ahead just do it to the King
Me, I'm a different animal when I buck at bull
Watch me, I'll throw you off like a bucking bull.
I tried to give a fuck but I'm 'bout a buck because...
Tears are like cents and two won't keep my bucket full.

...

Yeah i liked this, the title was an interesting choice to run with, but it was
relative to the topic at hand , maybe not literally,(as i was expecting a piece
about the top brass of the military with silver spoon pompery afoot) ,but it
came off as a perception of injust and chances, at boardrooms and social
levels, then by the end a sort of self hype piece, an abstracted offering i
thought, the concepts were clever as well as being poignant, it also has
this BAM factor going for as by the end it seems to all hit home, that we're
all being played one way or the other, but standing on your own two counts
for a lot, that's the vibe I'm getting whilst reading, i also liked the wording
in this drop, especially smorgasbord, kind of obscure and left field, which
i do enjoy as it shows off depth and vocabulary skills, yeah throughly en-
joyed this one even though its on the short side compared to your back
catalogue....Ripe read...peace.



ps, what is it with you and Neek of late?..lol.
