the recap
———————————————————
•verse one•
———————————————————
i got a call
in the morning
from the homie trae
-see i was
hitting the stu
semester starts a couple days, -1
-i know he only calls, about business
and making plays
“yo zim, i’ve got some good news
that’ll make your day”, -2
“you see i’ve gotta couple guys
who think like you and i
-and i would like it if, you just could meet em
chat, see where it lays”, -3
i‘m like, sounds cool
headed back to sound proof
made a couple songs
and then he called me back around 2, -4
he was like “bro this is a perfect opportunity
these guys are so aligned
& got ideas to help
would you agree?” -5
i said, “man i don’t know
but cool, i guess i’ll look and see”
4 hours later, nick and cap are buddy’s
sharing history, -6
we all surmise about the cr-p
within the industry
also agreed that we stand for artists
make it something free, -7
became some brothers
even called each other while we eat
and that is, just a simple truth
-beginnings, of what this came to be, -8
———————————————————
•hook one•
———————————————————
i know this wasn’t for nothing
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
it’s no caps
imma spit
& i don’t need no diss
———————————————————
•verse two•
———————————————————
college began in the middle
of the whole creation
meanwhile i’m helping with the graphics
ideas, innovations, -1
one thing i notice about cap
he had pure motivation
but lacked the character
when talking in a conversation, -2
often frustrations between him and i
made complications
real talk, i swear he hated me
cuz of intimidation, -3
i came on strong in chats
like straight up on some self defense
“you ain’t gon put those words
inside my mouth
can’t tell me what i meant,” -4
plenty discussions bout
the lack of understanding zim
meanwhile my thoughts are damaging
his actions, got him mad him, -5
always cursing, and lacking patience
he never listened
-then apologize in the message
-something like “i was tripping’,”-6
on several occasions
disagreements, based on opinions
-ended up in cappra, going stupid
on rants, like a victim, -7
but i admit, it was all p-ssion
we hoped it to work
-two visionaries
bumping heads like some d-mn jerks, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse three•
———————————————————
throughout the issues
i became bent on a different focus
-cap added, a new admin
knine street a bonus, -1
we got along, but somehow cap
would try, and cause divide
-especially because i worked on
street sounds, my first design, -2
did it on purpose, cuz i wanted cap
to feel so cold
i knew that catering to knine
would make him lose control, -3
he started going live
at any time, on everyday
and build the group
that was his job, for him to go and pave the way, -4
to be the face, and be the spokesman
show it’s all legit
…put out the word
while everyone prepares, for shows to hit, -5
so he was lit, a super fit
until he got too g-ssed
and let it all, go to his head
childishly, enough to brag, -6
so i dig deeper, got some software
and some better tools
“i’ll show this mother sucker cap,”
while thinking bout, how i should move, -7
working on a college degree
and a show creation
and suggesting shows possess
a quality visualization, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse four•
———————————————————
now by this time
i’m in the final weeks of my semester
i’m failing cl-sses
for the first time under all the pressure, -1
i’m playing catch up with professors
still i’m on the mission
swore that cap would, shut up
& agree, once i revealed the vision, -2
it was a culmination of
all that he kicked against
even the help, on his designs
and how my format fits, -3
if he could only understand
i was just tryna help him
but at this point
he won’t gon listen, what i tried to tell him, -4
meanwhile, the homie trae began
the morning motivation
nick the rap vet live show situation, -5
knine would go up at night
but cap at anytime
he started making some demands
like tryna schedule mine, -6
after my show debut
he wanted to control my day
…”h-ll naw, this dude ain’t bout to box me in, not on my page”, -7
i texted back stating
how i’d “go on anytime
that’s on my personal
and band page”, and then i, drew the line, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied but this
———————————————————
•verse five•
———————————————————
now i’m excited
-hip hop matters, was a small success
…i got the viewers
but the best, was hearing cap confess, -1
he admitted it was hot
but i could hear the tone
cuz he won’t happy bout it
being wrong, was on his dome, -2
that was the night before
the bs, bout to happen next
…cuz on the wake up dog
i swore that, i was about to flex, -3
that’s when he scheduled me
only for a sunday shows
-i sent a text, i’m up regardless
band page, and personal, -4
shortly afterward
i called the group inside the chat
-the only two to take the call
was knine street and james cap, -5
so i’m going on, about the show
and future goals
how i plan to change up the designs
a little, as i go, -6
that’s when cap started hollowing
like a dog in heat
-if we were in the same room
he’d watch the words that he would speak, -7
i couldn’t take it, so i hung up
after feeling, hurt
-and tried to call up trae, my friend
to tell him how, he threw me dirt, -8
———————————————————
•hook two•
———————————————————
i know this wasn’t for nothing
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
it’s no caps
imma spit
& i don’t need no diss
———————————————————
•verse six•
———————————————————
i’m calling trae, both on the phone
& in the chat like
he saw my text
i saw his tiny picture, on the side, -1
like he’s ignoring me
but confident he’d call me first
-specially after, all my messages
explaining i was cursed, -2
thought we were friends
-but next thing i know, when i check the chat, i see trae in a meet
with nick, knine, and a hater cap, -3
i knew, at this point, cap was working on
me getting kicked
—and tried to voice it, on the phone
with trae, but he denied the tip, -4
i told him, i could see it coming
like a prophecy
—and swore i won’t gon jump
into a meeting, tryna knock on me, -5
but he -ssured, “it wasn’t that
man they just wanna talk
with all respect, and let you speak
but cap, he came in with the chalk, -6
saddest thing is, knine was there
when cap curse me, for nothing
but in the meeting said no words
just a little mumbling, -7
shouted and quit
and then cap kicked, me straight out the group
-i guess he wanted me officially
out of the loop, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse seven•
———————————————————
i was so p-ssed, so then
i dropped a couple diss songs
-cap was spreading rumors
on the book, and had em thinking wrong, -1
-i used pics of admins
knine, nick, trae & cap
made them baby cartoons
on the cover, just to fire back, -2
i drew myself into the middle
spoon feeding cap
and put him in some baby girl pajamas
i’m just stating facts, -3
that’s why i called the first song
a fabrication
and afab, was bafa backwards
i was bafa hating, -4
cap rumor stating
claiming i exploited artists
but caps uneducated
of course he would talk r-t-rded, -5
so after while
i felt i’m using too much energy
when i should focus on my show
and make it better in 3d, -6
you see first show, it took me
about a couple weeks
and it included, bafa everything
so i was, up the creek, -7
i stayed up three days straight
to build the newer peak
-although i made it better
i still felt as though, was incomplete, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse eight•
———————————————————
we all begin, with what you know
so many months ago
-while i was on the outs
i still was, able to see bafa grow, -1
it was like having a kid
and seeing it, get adopted
watching, it grow up
and then mature, then take off like a rocket, -2
—even though i failed
my spring cl-sses, i made my peace inside
-sent a couple messages to cap
forgave him, dropped the pride, -3
i had to get myself together
for the new semester
i’m filling papers out for sap
and taking all the measures, -4
i went so hard, on go for bafa
i neglected college
and i lost focus on what matters
that’s what i acknowledged, -5
i had to do it all again
and make up for the waste
but had more time to do the show
and focus on my grades, -6
that’s when i came up with
the new show, 3 point 0
hip hop matters magazine live
seeing growth, -7
i ain’t gon lie
i won’t content, and ever satisfied
-cuz cap was in my inbox
going back forth but my demise, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse nine•
———————————————————
fast forward to about
a couple weeks ago
i get a call from trae
and he’s like “cap is going crazy bro” -1
i’m like “for real…so whats been
going on inside the group?”
he said “go head, and see yourself
i just unblocked you too” -2
he started talking bout the
situations that ensued
-seems that in my absence
he had disrespected several dudes, -3
i heard that knine left
and nick was kinda upset
and it was all about
the way that cap, was leaving people vexed, -4
he tells me, “you can be an admin
if you want to,”
i know you gotta think about it
just give it a day to choose”, -5
i’m super happy, stupid happy
i kept it internal
kept my composure
but i’m straight bout to pop, like a kernel, -6
a couple days later
then i get a call from cap
didn’t wanna answer at time
neither call him back, -7
i had to really consider
what i would soon decide
felt like i won
so then a rolled a blunt, got super high, -8
———————————————————
•hook three•
———————————————————
i know this wasn’t for nothing
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
it’s no caps
imma spit
& i don’t need no diss
———————————————————
•verse ten•
———————————————————
i decided to call cap
and all that
let bygones, be bygones
we all back, -1
he told me him & nick were talking
trae would say the same thing
-cap was mad at holly
him and trae would play, the blame game, -2
he swore that holly was exploiting
numbers in the group
he had me so convinced
it was legit, i said it too, -3
until i spoke to holly
-she turns out, to be legit
—seems her show was better
cap intimidated, throwing fits, -4
he wanted to kick her out
at this point i was all in doubt
but lent him no defense
nor accusations, never called him out, -5
cuz i just stepped into confusion
i’m just finding out
that caps accusing trae
of taking money, so they fighting now, -6
a day later
i decided i would ask trae
when he explained it all to me
it sounded an ash tray, -7
cap was tryna give him smoke
whatever preference is
but as far exploitation
ain’t no evidence, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse eleven•
———————————————————
see i decided to be free
no animosity
…just let the past, stay the past
ain’t no hate in me, -1
became supportive
everybody knows i value cap
…though i can see, why no one
wants to be around, the cat, -2
but we were cool
so he made me, admin once again
but i could see why his intentions
were to let me in, -3
his only motive, was
steer me on, to pick a team
-seems like, he wanted trae & holly gone
so he could lead, -4
i didn’t know where it was going
so i chose my words
sat back and learned, from all
the situations, i observed, -5
i get a call from trae
he argued, bout the bafa group
and talking about, how he wants to leave
and i said stop it fool, -6
i guess that he was having a moment
and h-lla stressed
…and he i would say some things
we‘d later both regret, -7
i’m on the book around the evening
and i’m sneak dissing
…indirectly on my posts
talking bout how he’s tripping, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied but this
———————————————————
•verse twelve•
———————————————————
next day, i get a call from cappra
on the wake up
seems that him and i
were kicked from bafa, things would shake up, -1
we started calling on the chat
to hit the culprit, trae up
texts saying this is karma
why he tryna play us, -2
i guess it’s something that i said
that prolly struck a nerve
or if it’s pressure
on explaining something cappra heard, -3
so cap called nick
he added cap and i back
we’re hitting b-ttons
tryna kickout trae, and all that, -4
but nicks the owner of it all
because he made the group
and wouldn’t let us kick each other out
so we looked like some fools, -5
and then he called together
a meeting to weight the issues
i’m only 2 weeks back
so i ain’t gone, blow on the whistle, -6
i messaged nick and told him
i just think, trae had a moment
i thought he had no leg to stand on
to look for atonement, -7
but didn’t say it
i thought it, and never did report it
i didn’t know if nick was for it
i couldn’t afford it, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse thirteen•
———————————————————
i call up cap, and we start talking
about trae and such
…and cap was sour bout the
fact of trae no showing up, -1
i mostly used recorded messages
to keep in touch
cuz i ain’t have the time to text
because i’m usually in a rush, -2
we said ite, and then
i hung up the phone
that’s when i gotta call from trae
apologizing for wrong, -3
that’s when i told him
we both act like the silliest brothers
had some arguments
and fights but never swung on each other, -4
we laughed a bit
because we know sometimes we act a fool
talk about each other
but respect is always mutual, -5
that’s when i told him
nick had set another meeting up
he said, that he was gonna post it
in the chat and such, -6
then he provided, an explanation
on cappras issue
i told him, “man, to tell the truth
it doesn’t sound official,” -7
i guess we’ll leave it up to nick
& cap to both decide,”
…and then we laughed about
how months ago, he is i, -8
———————————————————
•hook four•
———————————————————
i know this wasn’t for nothing
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
it’s all caps
imma spit
& i don’t need no diss
———————————————————
•verse fourteen•
———————————————————
when it came to the meeting
i took a silent role
as trae explained his side
we listened, to it all unfold, -1
to my surprise, that’s when
the questioning, now turned to cap
about his att-tude
and how he’s such a pr-ck, just the facts, -2
while this was going on
i swear, i lent no accusations
…although he was pr-ck to me
in a past situation, -3
i guess he wanted me to speak
and and say that trae’s a leech
although i thought it
i didn’t say it, felt like a reach, -4
that’s when cap started hollowing
like a dog in heat
-if trae and he were in the same room
he’d watch the words he speak, -5
after the cursing, name calling
he’s gave an ultimatum
he said, “it’s either me or trae”
but trae won’t tryna save him, -6
he was like, “if you wanna leave
just got head and leave
no ones begging you to stay
i think they all would be relieved, -7
because you’re highly
an emotional pr-ck,”
i didn’t matter bout the back, & forth
it all up to nick, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse fifteen•
———————————————————
so cappra left the conversation
and he left the group
…and nick ain’t want to see him go
-neither give trae the boot, -1
….wanted to treat it
like a lesson for the both of them
…and nick was disappointed
-though he still had hope for him, -2
we hoped that he would come around
and simply understand
you can’t just blow your top
-every time you don’t, get your way, d-mn, -3
now that cap was gone
trae would add holly back
and everybody cheered
with emojis, all up and down, the chat, -4
a few were disappointed
who never had problems with him
…i message cap to encourage
-the focus on the mission, -5
before the meeting, planned a contest
for group engagements
before the meeting, planned compilations, thought arrangements, -6
—though, he made that choice
i still was, up to, work with cap
…i told him, he would be successful
even stated stats, -7
i guess i spoke too soon
what happened next, was unexpected
…cappra showed his true colors
as usual reckless, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse sixteen•
———————————————————
the next, morning
i check in, the moderator chat
…i even texted, a message stressing
and all that, -1
-it was a couple
paragraphs long, certainly all a plead
asking for return of the kid cap
to all extremes, -2
…how he gave the group
the numbers
all about his p-ssion
-even adding him, as a moderator
a separate action, -3
after posting it
i sent the same to cappra too
-to show him that, i stood for him
supportive of that cappra dude, -4
-what’s crazy is, i even sent a couple messages
as i could see the bubble, dribble down
i know he’s checking it, -5
next thing i know
i get a message from the moderators
-cap is on a live rant
man, he should be a commentator, -6
i take a glance at it
and message back to show support
…but that’s until, was disappointed
by the next report, -7
they said that cap was saying names
and i was implicated
…so then i go, back to the post
to see he’s bafa hating, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse seventeen•
———————————————————
i admit, i was p-ssed
i made a couple memes
even copied, edit his live rant
added a theme, -1
i didn’t like the way he handled it
cuz it would seem
—he let emotions, take him to extremes
we had never seen, -2
…although we know he’s capable
we gave him benefit
—that why i waited for, a couple days
then jumped into it, -3
—posted on my wall
-indirectly, a cappra emoji
…said imma give him one more time
-caps off, on the homie, -4
…then he responded
said tag me in, explicit words,,,
..so i dropped the memes
and i, tag him in them, like i ain’t scured, -5
but then he got me back
he snapped a picture off a vid
my gl-sses all dirty
& my hair was looking like a wig, -6
-plus he added text like
if you woke up, with him over you
hovering, in the morning
tell me what, you’d really do? -7
and then i posted it
i’m laughing at it, having fits
but cap was in his feelings
so i guess he wasn’t having it, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse eighteen•
———————————————————
we going back and forth, with disses
people laughing at it
…the comments, getting serious
with tagging on the status, -1
i message cap and say
“how look you wanna keep this up
…you got dudes roasting me, it’s cool
it’s entertaining, bruh”, -2
next thing i know
somebody’s comments all refer to smoke
like i ain’t want none
little did he know, it was my hope, -3
his name was louie gehtnum
last names what louie does
…louie dropped a diss
with cappras meme, of me because, -4
i told him, if you’re gonna do this
come with visuals
…and don’t hold back
cuz pulling punches, is not what i do, -5
i shared the diss right on my page
then promoted it too, -because i knew, that i would show, and prove
when my moments due, -6
i wrote my full response about him
late, on day two
allow suspense to build around
such a creative move, -7
i start recording, louie bugging
and kept calling me
…turn my phone on, do not disturb
ain’t no, stalling me, -8
———————————————————
•hook five•
———————————————————
i know this wasn’t for nothing
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
but i be got
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
it’s no caps
imma spit
& i don’t need no diss
———————————————————
•verse nineteen•
———————————————————
i’m searching through
all louie’s pics, i see him with a spliff
i crop his head, crop the piff
put back this chin, replace the lips, -1
…used the app, pic st-tch
after adding a casket
…and posted it, and tagged him in it
for crackheads and f-ggots, -2
…see i ain’t know this dude from adam
i had to, get at ‘em
mention moms up in his song
so you know imma cap ‘em, -3
now the beef is really on
cuz i bodied them both
…16 on cappra, in a rip louie diss
was enclosed, -4
2 days later shanky moody
jumped into the mix
the funny thing is i recorded the song
it was sick, -5
…i did adlibs, in the background
for nothing but kicks
cuz shanky moody was mentioned
inside the louie diss, -6
meanwhile, i see
james on a hater spree
—said i rapped like mgk
but i switched, my style, plenty, -7
—slapped together 5 tracks
mixed them into under 5 raps
even said some things, for affect
mixed, with a few, facts, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse twenty•
———————————————————
a few days later
i wake up to being tagged, by cap
he claimed he end my whole career
when he exposed the facts, -1
he posted 2 songs
but honestly the first was trash
-the second one, it was a whole
12 minute, recorded draft, -2
cuz we all know he can’t mix
so its all chest moves
…used my recording, in the diss
to grab their interest too, -3
…but only hoes, do that
on the net, for lack of esteem
and like a dry snitch
that runs to go talk, to the dees, -4
that’s when he called me on the chat
like he won it all back
i told him i was disappointed
you did all of that, -5
we laughed about
then i asked him if, he was recording
i told him, it was well played
and i’ll see him next morning, -6
i started writing
now he’s calling me back on the chat
-i put phone on, do not disturb
concentrate #therecap, -7
and 16, 16s
turned to 21
336 barz, of truth
in a rap, and he runs, -8
———————————————————
i’ll be d-mn if i lied bout this
———————————————————
•verse twenty-one•
———————————————————
so now i’m blocked by cap today
i think he, thinks it’s over
blocking me on facebook
is like the cold shoulder, -1
started this song, last night
been writing, ever since
…to tell a story, full of truth
you have the evidence, -2
i wanted everyone to know
the facts about the issues
and imma let the song cry
so you don’t need a tissue, -3
you see it’s cool and all
to make this all a compet-tion
i even talked to louie bout it
shanky not to mention, -4
and all because of this
now shanky wants a louie feature
and if you’re hearing this song louie
i would like to meet ya, -5
i treated all this
like a grand learning experience
you gotta them ready cap
i’m happy that their hearing this, -6
you showed my heart, within your diss
but didn’t notice it
you were so focused on some evil
that you missed the gift, -7
and so i thank you for it all
this was incredibly
a show of lack of character
you never had integrity. -8
