The Mahdi - The Underachievers

We be that Elevated Mafia, Underachieving lot with us

Nigga there ain’t no stopping us, prosperous off that garlic drug

Mantras when I spit this flow, knowledge filled up in every bar

But I’m guided by the light, no shine,

soldier of the father but I ain’t no christian

Underachievers, make believers out of heathens

Portraying legends, got greatest presence up in heaven

Sitting, rolling up that dynamite, prickly shit, that porcupine

Pot prescriptions, that funky shit you hit it then you quit it

Eyes Closed, Indian style, sitting, my mind zones

Herbal essence, Cali kush, aroma for the stoners

Benjamin Franks on us, can’t get a Lincoln out us

Before you think about it, we got it, just being honest

We progress when we ain’t tryna, UA, we redefining diamond

What I need, a rhyming needle sharp nigga ego-shining

Hear on from here on, if not you hear wrong

Young intellect with fear gone, I’ll take a bear on

A bigger plan, forever young, call a nigga Peter Pan

God told me young that I would be the man' it’s evident

Medicine, medical grade, nigga know my preference

Rizla shit, roll it and face it, this weed is limitless

Up the stairs, out of your old ways, elevating your forte

Conscious up out of deep space, can’t relate

That’s why we don’t bump your mixtape,

only keeping good shit on replay

That Marvin Gaye, little Coldplay, maybe Sade

Seven days seven nights,

in the booth straight creating that good music

In the soul, food for thought, you been waiting, right?

Cooking up shit with my apron tight

Listening to this verse might save your life

Hard work put in, automatic goin' win

Had to learn from the sins but I paid that price

I’m faded, no not high dog, I’m faded

Lost some friends in the struggle I never thought I would make it

Mahdi, my fucking brother, I love you, you were the bravest

Even though I just met you, my heart you are engraved in, Amen

How you lookin' for shit to change if you ain’t changing your ways

Making the same mistakes, defining insane peep game

Where the children of the light resign

I’ll cosign the free brethren, speak the wisdom on right and wrong

Co-creating some better men

File now to the kingdom

Cause you know the power comes with the wisdom

Gets 'em, we went from god on a mission

Free you niggas of the mental prism, listen

Roll that trop with that medicine

Underachievers, I represent

Put it down for my niggas man

Keep the bullshit back in the past

I got the illest flow, when my spirit glows

Underachieving till the grave, tryna' heal the blows

Limits broke like the levees down in N.O., so we float

Higher teacher, higher learning

That’s the knowledge we promote

Eyes focused on our goals

Stay counting them pe-sos

The fountain of youth, founded by conscious UA

Folks I promise to spread knowledge

Roll up and remain ghost

Pay homage to the prophets

Cause we offer the same coach, nigga
