[bereft]

You’d think Franzia pays me for pimping its box wine

The way I slap Bag more than binge-drinking housewives

This lame duck wrote his verse, but then got a dark feeling

That Kamala’s new book isn't the only thing voters aren’t reading

I checked the flight logs. I’ve gone to great lengths and extreme miles

But finding his talent has been harder than uncovering the Epstein files

You can leave the country, but I’ll catch you. And do it swiftly, too

Because my verse’ll bag Mandela quicker than South African police in ‘62

My girl’s style is unique, but she’s a trendsetter and has earned it

And after this battle, she’ll have the first designer Bag from a taxidermist

I doubt you’ve got supporters. And I know you don’t get respect

If anyone ever thought you were good, well, that’s a reverse Mandela effect

[bereft]

That's a no-show for Bag Mandela.

[Bag Mandela]

That's a no-show for Bag Mandela.

My bad I assumed it was midnight we don't usually set a time just a date.



I'll catch her writing birthday cards to Eve & Anne n beat ya gran with a pizza pan,
She always loved licking the envelopes, so I let het die staring at the ceiling fan,

It's Bereft, Woo! Big Deprived... we've all had shitty times but his are different guys,
his name signifies he feels victimised and made sure you all know so you can sympathise... Women, right?

It's hard to convince us you're totally savage when you brand yourself "MC Hopelessly Damaged",
Bro is a cabbage, pack me up? Your hands are already full with your own emotional baggage,

He been out the game for a while but now Bereft outside!
First this drop, next FlipTop! Where he'll be reft outside,

You have hobbies like collecting pebbles, so offering friendship's detrimental,
You'd like my Somali Pirate bredrin, Fessel, you could swap tales of how ya both empty vessels,

You shou'know, Be, I practise martial arts of the mind, and I can cure your soul of that darkness inside,
Doubts he'll stop feeling bereft however hard that he tries, Til I bring a "Sure-he-can!" and put stars in his eyes

decent np, its reasonable

overall i wouldn't mind some wordplay or maybe stuff a bit more complex but it was rather direct throughout and clearly it's just ur style, not bad

im a fan of the shuriken wordplay but thats about it, think it connects pretty meh but the w/p is cool lol

cool verse as expected, some very funny/creative stuff per usual.

..

bags got it but bereft had some cool stuff too here and there, just different levels and bags came better/enjoyed it more/was more creative and complex etc etc. good to see a battle this long go up in 2025 tho wp to both, pz
