The Beast Within

[Intro — Crunk] Ayy, turn it up! I been quiet, but don’t mistake that for weak! Pressure been building— Now let it out! [Hook] They use my kindness for weakness, think I won’t react, Think I don’t see the moves, think I don’t know the facts. I stay calm, stay quiet, let ‘em do what they do, But the beast that’s within me been watching you. Don’t confuse my silence with being blind, I see everything happening right in front of my eyes. I don’t have to respond just to prove that I know, When the pressure hits the limit, watch the beast let go! [Verse 1] They think I’m stupid ‘cause I don’t say much, Think I’m easy ‘cause I give too much. I show love, show grace, give people a chance, Then they turn around and mistake that for weakness. I see the side looks, I hear the slick talk, See who’s switching lanes when they think I don’t watch. You think I’m oblivious? Man, that’s a joke, I’m reading every move while you’re watching me close. I don’t need to argue, I don’t need to fight, I can sit in the corner and still know what’s right. You mistake self-control for a lack of aggression, But pressure makes diamonds—and reveals the tension! [Hook] They use my kindness for weakness, think I won’t react, Think I don’t see the moves, think I don’t know the facts. I stay calm, stay quiet, let ‘em do what they do, But the beast that’s within me been watching you. Don’t confuse my silence with being blind, I see everything happening right in front of my eyes. I don’t have to respond just to prove that I know, When the pressure hits the limit, watch the beast let go! [Verse 2 — Hard Crunk] I ain’t dumb, I’m calculated, Been underestimated, now I’m activated. Every little thing that you thought I missed, Got filed in my mind—every word, every twist. You thought I wouldn’t notice? Wrong! Thought I wouldn’t catch it? Wrong! I’ve been holding back, keeping my composure, But every new lie keeps pushing me closer. This ain’t anger—this is pressure released, This ain’t weakness—this is power unleashed. I got patience, but patience ain’t forever, Push that line too far and it’s gonna get severed. I don’t chase respect—I command it, Built this strength and nobody can dismantle it. You see the quiet man and think he’s afraid, You don’t know the beast that the silence has made! [Breakdown] Turn it up! Let it out! All that pressure— Get it out! All that stress— Let it breathe! You don’t know what’s underneath! [Final Hook] They use my kindness for weakness, but that’s all they know, They never saw the beast underneath the soul. Think I don’t see it? I see it all! Think I won’t respond? I don’t have to call. Silence ain’t ignorance, calm ain’t fear, I’ve been watching everything crystal clear. Keep underestimating me—keep doing what you do, Just remember: the beast has been watching you! [Outro] Kindness ain’t weakness. Silence ain’t stupid. Patience ain’t fear. You just haven’t seen the beast yet.
