   The things you are clone and up cloning you
   The things you showing and up showing you
   Any time you a fling a stone it and up hitting you
   The things you are processing and are processing you
   You claim say you a progress but you na progress for true
   You claim say you a blessed but you a cursed for true
   'Cos what comes first is last in you
