Everyone who has ever seen David Fincher’s dark and brutal cinematic masterpiece Se7en was likely affected by at least one of the chilling murder scenes. For Ransom, he found himself inspired by the acclaimed director’s vision, to the point where he designed his brand new EP around the flick. Featuring guest appearances from Lloyd Banks and Royce Da 5’9″, who hold it down on “Gluttony” and “Greed” respectively, the entirety of the album is named after the seven deadly sins. T
hat includes the penultimate “Sloth,” which also happens to be a highlight on the brief and thematically vivid project. Despite what the title may suggest, Ransom’s bars are anything but lazy; in fact, he continues his merciless massacre through instrumentals, furthering the case that he’s among the game’s most slept on spitters. “I done took this hoodie off and the villain’s my own reflection,” he raps. “Soul possession of a sober perception with no deception, no depression / Life’s a test, ni**as blessed when they know the questions.”
Ransom – Sloth (ft. J. Arr) (prod. Chup the Producer)
[Verse 1: Ransom]
What is livin’ with no obsessions?
Got no discretions, you know the reference behold the essence
Know the lessons, how you handle your liquor when holdin’ weapons
I done took this hoodie off and the villain’s my own reflection
Soul possession of a sober perception with no deception, no depression
Life’s a test, niggas blessed when they know the questions
Hope for blessings, but
I ain’t gon’ pray in no church to get ’em, curse the reverend
‘Cause he fake, only snakes got a thirst for venom
Search my denim, then
Fire this piece like I burnt the emblem, first amendment
Spit a fiery piece like a verse from Lemon (Lemon)
They say that a liar’s the worse defendant
We ain’t breakin’ no rules but it’s hurts to bend ’em
Turnt the pendulum, now it’s swingin’ in our direction
A martyr stressin’, Satan’s tryna ruin ya bidness but you got God investin’
Hard to question, harbour these dark infections they start infestin’
Father left him, now I’m the greatest rapper, a star was destined (A star was destined)
You choose a path or it chooses you (Chooses you)
Don’t let your master confuse ya view (Confuse ya view)
A near disaster is beautiful
The first to disregard all his work is last in his cubicle (In his cubicle)
[Verse 2: J. Arrr]
Uh, like that kid from Nazareth, Jerusalem
Born to lead, niggas they still attack and abusin’ you
Hear the laughs and amusement through the speakers
Who critiques us worse than our, own reflections?
Respect to the true believers
Uber eats, deliver food for thought
These niggas tricky like true or false, I’m true to [?]
But I do raw with fewer faults
They blowin’ smoke, spittin’ hookah bars
Come ’bout my dough, I need them [?] bars
Who’s to call when you’re pursuin’ guidance?
Who’s winnin’ and who’s survivin’?
Who’s stealin’ and who’s providin’?
You’ll find those answers can scissor through the skies is
They fake tough, but behind closed doors really but [?]
Juvenile, just so you understand I give you slow motion
Flow’s colder than ice rinks in Nov’ Scotia
Most omens be right under your nose and you won’t notice
Once broken, trust can cause a division, a gross quota
Readin’ braile with 2020, I see clearer than ever
Only strive to keep my spirit together
Time has limits, so I spit it with intentions I’ll be livin’ forever
And once I’m gone, they’ll treat my lyrics as treasure
I feel like Beckham just, peep how I kick it [?]
But everything is natural hair, just juices and berries
One of the best at dodgin’ blows, but use is for [?]
I only hide from the lies, the truth shouldn’t scare me, nigga…
