Everybody quiet down, it’s time for the show
You know I waited so long to get this on the road
I had to make sure it’s perfect with glitters and gold
Overthinking every decision, finna explode
I’m in the pros
At least I’m Acting according,
in my bedroom recording like I’m in an auditorium
Seats packed out, all across the world they order em
I ain’t no historian, this is my story man
Pass underhanded super powers from the planets
Imma shine like Janet, they can’t jack a nigga canvas
I’m gon live outside of what the government had planted
My seeds gon feed the planet tho
One branch at a time
Even then, my spirit gotta go
Leaving this behind
But for now imma rhyme on the regular
Catch me pulling off in a Tesla
Esoterically on the next flight to Vesta
Never nothing lesser
Let this be lesson to myself, I’m the next up
Lights camera action how I got this shit set up
I just had to step up, and show out
Lemme pull the curtain up and let this inner passion out
Back then I held it in
So lost in self doubt
Empty pockets, couldn’t get the dust out
Now I gotta air it out
Lighten up my load, I’m the Phoenix now
Fire on the quill, lemme write this out

And We Up
Raising vibrations
All across the nation
Bop to this, I’m rocking with baby, don’t stop
Don’t stop
Step on the scene, candy clean, with the ice on gleam
A solar beam from my solar plexus
Fuck a necklace
Some niggas follow the fortune and fame
Other try to honor their name or try to rectify the shame
We all bleed the same tho
Here how’s the game
I’m just tryna see life from many different angles
Why the hell im the club looking for an angel?
Maybe cuz I know we in reverse on the dance floor
Back it up x3
baby,
You know vibe got me going crazy
1 blunt, 2 blunt, in my
Hand
3 shot, 4 shot
Oh my damn
Outta body
Off of land
Tell the DJ
This my jam
Tell the Dj what you came to do?
“I came to have some fun with you”
Where the chicks
Who man ain’t shit
Who feelin it
Move them hips and earn them tips
You killin it
Scandalous
Might need another hand for this
Body banging OG Crip
Online charge a mill for pics
Keep the flash on,
Usually ya boy don’t trick
I got the bag on me
Yeah I gotta woman at home, I pass her to the homie
This is just a regular song, till she put that ass on me
Bop to this...

Since a youngin, always up to something
I was riding round in a bucket,
That 98 Camry had me cruising thru Miami
The women like candy
Sweeter than ever but have too many get a crampy
I like mine fancy
Swept her off her feet like a fan be
Everything lowkey,
Sippin OE in the back vip now, make a nigga senile when they see us up now
They be like how the fuck?
I got unstuck,
Released a gang of fucks and started life fully like my time is up
So where the party at?
Tell ya people that we down for that
Oh yeah down for that
I’mma fat blunt smoking
Pocket full of tokens
Took as many shots as Kobe open
Faded
Life gotchu jaded
I understand baby but
One little night with us gon get you lit as fuck
We don’t do that angel dust but we got wings up
Fly with the squadron
Touching clouds often
Dreams come true when you when walking ya path
Let em laugh for now but cry later when you pass em bye
Free ya mind from doubt and lies
The fear minimize When you look it in the eyes
Imma slide to the moon where the stars reside
Take my place on the face like a dollar bill side
Life is a surprise and I’m in it for the prize
Like steam when I’m seen bet I always get a rise
Issa sign, Kings fall but the spirit never dies
Might as well have fun while the body still alive

I treat the plug Costco’s
Copping in boatloads for the low low
Niggas talking Chicken & Waffles well I’m at at Roscoes
Tell me what you want I bet we got those
Never for the free, what you thought hoe
Thought I had life figured out but the plot holes poking out like a blue roses
Doors open when another closes
Wish I had time for closeness
Lately I been on the solo
Deserve a Han of applause the way moving thru Oz, this shit is getting spooky
Heart of a lion left my fear on a loose leaf
So courageous Schwarzenegger saying goodness gracious
The goal is greatness on a daily basis
Familiar faces start to fade when old habits breaking
I’m starting to take it as a compliment, can’t compromise my destination
For generations niggas lost in presidential statements
Done turned our struggles into entertainment
But let get back
to regular rap
I’m feeling tapped and drain
I Feel the rain on my skin just like I’m 10 again
Fro in the wind, blowing strong, finna grab the pen
write another song
Gotta better vibe to put you in
All along I knew that we could win
A little faith, imagination goes along way in the end
Damn Dave you done done it again
You know I love to let the record spin

Okay I feel a billion bucks
Ever since I gave less fucks
Ya know I keep a jay on tuck
I ain’t gotta say much,
My name carry weight like a grudge
Too hot to touch like the butt of a Dutch
Smoking on that good shit
Gotta thank goodness
This ain’t even good as it could get
Imma change the world like Newton
My imagination outer space like Lucas
Telling my story till I reach my conclusion
Used to be boosting
Now I gotta booster
Had to get up early in the morning with the rooster
Couldn’t take the bus cuz I needed me a tutor
One things for sure my momma never raised a loser
Coming out on top even if I gotta shoot ya
Call me the trooper, coming at ya head mr. cooper
Welcome to the class of the future
On my grown but I’m still a Star Child
Dreams running wild, imma manifest heaven right now
I can’t wait my whole life
What if I died tonight? I gotta live right
Right now
Class in attendance, cleaning out my circle like clinic
My 360 is all I need, independent
All of my desires come to me, I ain’t trippin
I know that what’s for me is all I’m getting
Really that’s the end of it
Niggas love to play victim, holding onto ignorance
Always been accountable, even in my innocence
Didn’t last long, no surprise for suburban kids
Nigga rippin bongs outside from the teachers live
We ain’t give a fuck we was young like Jeezy is
Thug motivation had me feeling like I’m trappin shit
Never was a rich kid but I heard of RichKidz
Momma worried that wouldn’t know what real music is
Had me bumpin Pendergrass, Turning off the light switch
How I’m still shining in darkness
Holla if you feel me
Finally I get to show the real me

While I was basking in sunlight and mackin the hoes
I was tryna find a way to get Jermaine on the phone
Verses written, I’m reciting up to 3 in morn
Momma wonder how the fuck I just got kicked out the dorm
I was problem child, running wild
Unique with style, sippin crystallll
Dream Hakeem
I’m on the hooks now
Haunted by shit I seen
It’s too deep, I need a new towel
I dove in it now I can’t get out
Fuck 360 deal
Deserve a mil
Skipping meals
Rather stay independent
Don’t need the thrill
When I thought of real happiness
It gave me a chill
Like how some people put they all in this and get nil
I’m pursuing it still
I see my dream on a hill
Like every step that I’m taking making it realer than real
I think it’s deeper than just playing on the radio speakers
Or saving up to buy pair of Jordan premium sneakers
It’s bout inspiring people, to see the best of themselves
I paid my dues, learned the clues and now I’m loving myself
Can’t complain I’m just playing with the cards I was dealt
I maintain then excel as I’m going thru hell
To people in jail, and the folks on welfare
Best believe you still got wealth there
It’s really inside, I know pride make it feel it don’t apply
But
I just wanna see you fly
I just wanna see you away

Thinking back to when we got together
Thought I’d make it better
Pieces of my heart in every letter
I was writing seven days out week
I couldn’t speak my feelings so I just kissed you on the cheek
In the sheets we hit a peak
Climaxing
Hit Like 30 shots from a magnum but I was laughing
Only on the outside, the inside was really crashing
Burning in the rain like Usher Raymond, I’m saying gah damn
I know you don’t need me anymore but when you pass me in the store
I get a whiff of your doir
Got me panting at the door like puppy on the porch
Do anything for ya love
Babygirl won’t you please pick up
Couple months later, I done heard news
Thru the grapevine, smoke in the mirror, color was blue
So I guess it wasn’t really that hard to choose
Me and you been ropes since 1s and 2s
I would’ve made it all official like bride and groom
Made a couple extra dollars for multiple rooms
I could’ve us to the islands with beautiful views
But In the end i just wanted what’s best for you
Time Will True
These days I love myself tho
Getting lost in love like death row
I rather be alone with the phone on do not disturb
Hitting herb while I sit on the curb
I’ve seen worse
Sometimes you gotta question the worth
Like it possible this person dragging me thru the dirt?
It’s just an obstacle
It’s hard to see the truth when you hurt
Not thinking logical
Putting my binoculars on to see it clearer
Time will tell who was the hero
But it always equalize to zero
Cuz life goes on
Instead keeping that song
on repeat
I’m hitting my 360
In a new space where I can feel
Cuz I don’t need you
|
||||
10. |

Back on my mind again
I need to find a friend
Keep it platonic but vision you hoppin on it I’m gone in the wind
Hot like tamale, I’m sweating like I popped a molly nah
Degree on 99, broke bet she probably not
Peep that she Work at coffee shop
Shorty Alicia like Keys, huh?
Do anything just to appease her
Lean on me baby Pisa
Order anything, fuck bout pizza
I suggest you get steak with the premium cut
After riding with me how you hop on a bus
Can’t you see we is must
I could be giving you love
I could giving you trust
I could be deep in your guts
I could be making you cuss
I could be helping you bust
know it take time to adjust
I was just bringing it up so we don’t get stuck in a rut
don’t feel like you gotta rush
Don’t feel like you gotta rush

Tell me what’s been all up on ya mind
I can help ya body unwind
Tell me what’s been all up ya mind
I can help ya body unwind
Promise that I’ll listen to you, pick up the phone
If ya home I can make it there in seconds, won’t be long
Life has many lessons but I know you know them all
So instead I’ll bob my head play you my lil song
I feel that you should trust your intuition, you ain’t wrong
You Feel like somethings off oh well baby you might be on
I’m just a simple man and I can only see so far
I’m hearing your stories and I feel you deserve more
That’s none of my business but it’s something you should explore
A woman’s like a heart, if you got one keep her pure, can’t buy one at the store
When lose her, you lose more
Understand another gone love her way deeper than before
I really really wanna keep you happy
Have you laughing, your satisfaction
Is all I really wanna give
Seeing thru illusion
I’m addicted to ya fluids
Diving deeper, by ya sneakers
Let our souls do the speaking
Got me speechless
Thought I knew the thesis of love
I feel your hands when you caress me, such a gift from above
You ease my spirit when I feel the world is coming for blood
Kamikazi anybody that would threaten our love
For now we vibin, always smiling like high off the drugs
Girl you cloud 9, divine fine, all the above

Castle in my mind been building since 9
Couldn’t find myself
Until I left past behind
Funny time just love to play tricks on mind
Moments I figured would last forever in rewind but nah
It kept moving
Soon Became a student of life
I love music so I made it my wife
Matrimony flow
Matching every topic with stones
Call that a mental building blocks for building shit of your own
I call attention to the spiritual like mom on the phone
Yeah you might be grown physically but mentally wrong
Manifesting shit that’s out your favor, demons is strong
But we stronger
Gotta use knowledge of self to carry on and conquer
Imma have to leave this world ya honor
Cuz I don’t agree with terms and conditions you gotta under
//
Somewhere that I could be alone
I don’t wanna pick right now
Somewhere that I could be alone
I feel like picking up the phone right now
I just wanna be here in my zone
Riding down I-85 top down, oh
I could hit ya exit if ya home baby
You ain’t gotta call, we been falling off lately
All in my mind
I need clear out my mental
Drawing conclusions stencil, I gotta put down the pencil
Build my mental temple
Made my peace with all
Problems don’t dissolve
I make sure they’re solved
As above so below me dawg
Somewhere that I could be alone
I don’t wanna pick right now
Somewhere that I could be alone
I feel like picking up the phone right now
Somewhere that I could be alone
I don’t wanna pick right now
Somewhere that I could be alone
I feel like picking up the phone right now
Self preservation more important than the shit I’m chasing
Lost in my desires made a mess, stress made me lazy
I don’t need that trouble in my life
I got insight
Satisfied with what I got inside
I’m gon be aight
I been on this road all alone
Yeah they said they down, when I looked up they was gone
All that shit just made a nigga grown
Until Teamwork make the dream work imma do it on my own

This time I’m finna choose sativa
Teething at the mic, I’m feenin for success
If you needy for the sex she more than likely gon reject
Gotta chill, show respect
I suspect you niggas never had no pussy in ya life
I suggest
Get clue, do how Lindsey Lohan do
Keep it shhh
Nothing to it
You can’t do it how I do it
I’m so cool
Freezing fluid, flowing stupid still
Versitill
Movie star like SNL
RIP to Emmit Till
95 to infinity I’m finna keep real
Way about the atmosphere
Smoking in that chlorophyll
Swear I Spoke to Uncle Phil, told him how a nigga feel
Life is absurd, hit the curb but I’m whipping still
Whip is still clean, hit the scene
Still got time to kill
I don’t do no pills but I don’t judge
If that’s you, that’s real
Gun concealed
Nah This ain’t no drill nigga
I’m barely paying my bills, I cannot chill with ya
These days I been focused on what’s the bigger picture
Where imma be in 10 years and how I’m finna get there
I take one day at a time but you know life is unfair
Everything fine I swear
Making strides in my Nikeware
Watch a nigga do it like nobody there
Fuck fear

Birds eye view, fuck a truce
Got the juice,
sippin clean, Drink greens like Style P
So many bars might trap a sheep, unless he black
Lemme relax
No lap of lux shit only fax
Stealing all my fucking taxes back, nigga
This ain’t a dance track
But you gon groove and move ya back, Dave got the shorties tryna hop in the sack
I Tell em chill
I got a Ill black queen that’ll fix mean meal got me taking naps
No tit for tat, man I’m wifing that
In due time,
till then
I’m on the grind tryna shine like the sun after 9
All see in I
But all I see more blind leading blind, it was all lies
Loose ties tryna minimize the rise of king
They wasn’t giving dap, now they tryna kiss the ring
They say alls fair in love and war, except fighting for love that ain’t there anymore
That first heart break, dropped me right down to the floor
The only pick me up rolled in a leaf, I can soar
Since then
I been healing way deep in my core
Fascinated with a dream of me being on tour
And Owning several business, have my nigga employed
It’s so important but I know it’s way deeper of course
Beyond material
My spirts no thing
No shape and form
It’s just a space, I’m attracting things to it
I think the earth is not a rock, it’s more like fluid
That’s why life is really all about influence
You probably thought the clout was gonna get you thru it
The truth is power only makes you more diluted
Must not be human I think all this shit is stupid
But here I am tryna make dollars off this music

Do you wanna ride with me
Heard you tryna fly with me
Pleading my case
Never could chase but I’ll admit you me curious, I’m jogging place
Tryna figure how to play it without rushing the pace
Face to face with an angel but we miles away
Can I get a little closer
Good things happen when open to right one
I could be the wrong one but we won’t know til we try some
I felt the vibe since day one
So let me know sum
Love to see you with ya feet propped up
You wont ever have to wonder bout me, I’m in the cut
tryna cuff
You my missing link
Never been stuck,
I’m complete my own
But the road gets tough
I got enough juice in my cup that could fill you
You brought ya own glass, watch you laugh as you raise it up
If we ever clash it won’t shatter like the last one
Give it chance huh?

My responsibilities taking a toll
Higher learning from mistakes, I’m likely to roll
I know these moments matter most so I’m taking it slow
I see the envy in their eyes, I’m ready to blow
I got my family on my side but I’m walking alone
I forgot how momma sound outside of a phone
Got me callin her more
I ain’t even on tour
Couldn’t imagine going thru all this without mi amor
She keep me center
She keep me sane
She keep me better, constantly testing my game
She give me motivation throughout all the pain
She heal my spirits whenever I feel ashamed
Really without her I’d probably die on a plane
Out of touch with the ground, the people yelling my name
I’m Flying into the sun
Reality ain’t nun
Time is just an illusion
Except for when we spend some
If there’s one thing I know for certain
Is that I’ll only get what I’m deserving
Wants and needs don’t come cheap
Women lie and nigga cheat
People try but they be sheep
Fear be working like disease
The first to kill a person dreams
All this time inside machines
I concentrate no more, there’s way too much behind the scenes
They just telling us his story
But your own is more important
So distorted with the portions
Like How the fuck is we the poorest while we working over time
Double time
Just to keep the fucking lights on
I’m just tryna shine like Wale making Pop songs
Poppin cross the globe like Breezy with his mic on
My goal is to make it last forever thru the time zones
Call me Kieth Sweat, probably on ya wifey neck
If not I’m on her mind like a Nike Band Check
We just wanna get this money, but we so quick forget
That this shit is only temporary, time is all we get
So how’d you spend it?

Rainfall on my window seal
Had to make sure it’s something we can all feel
Im the field cultivating my dreams
Planted seeds, learned what God mean to me
Now I see I can’t just be around anybody
The lobby was too full
Elevator flows, take me to the moon dude
I was acting out like looney toons
Summer afternoons in my room
C’mon momma, please turn off the news
I can bring you to the well
But you gotta bring cup
Moon water always pouring up, Let it rain down on my soul
I’m satisfied now
Ain’t felt thirst in a while
Never give up on ya inner child
Universal
Living in the moment, no rehearsal
I took the leap of faith over hurdles
I just got a higher purpose
Usually the haters barely even scratch the surface
I dug a little deeper, all the pressure had me nervous
I’m not a public speaker but I’m spittin like it’s cursive
They ain’t wanna pay me for my service, I done leveled and now they don’t deserve it
Only apology is to me for ever doubting that I’m worth it
//
Soul Pax Noir, had to open up my door
Ventilation for my skeletons, I picked em off the floor
I was hanging with the devil just keep from being poor
Now I’m pouring out my heart, these days the profit more pure
Made a diamond outta verse
Put producers in a hearse
Told my baby on the first she could put away her purse
Man I’m tired of the curse,
Why my people gotta hurt
Shit is crazy
Repercussions from the 80s made hazy
I’m puffin on daisy, it ain’t ever me lazy
Me and lady talking bout the day when we can cop Mercedes and take a ride around city
I ain’t been around lately
Yeah I know, it’s only August
But it’s been so cold
Believe in self cuz that’s all that I got
Not too many see the top, but we all feel the drop
Wifey asking for a rock, shit I might hit three block
At the dock of the bay, who thought it’d turn out this way
I’m indecisive, should I stay or should I try to escape
No more running from the past, karmic debt getting paid
Why the fuck you think I’m up so late locked in my cave?
I rather risk it as entrepreneur than be a slave
Don’t mistake it, I ain’t judging your ways
We all gotta do what’s best for us
Then we okay
To each his own, now we grown
I’m just happy to say
That we alive,
Grateful that we seen 25
Soul Pax Noir, had to open up my door
Ventilation for my skeletons, I picked em off the floor
I was hanging with the devil just keep from being poor
Now I’m pouring out my heart, these days the profit more pure
Dollars and cents, I’m saving for rent
Preparing for my next stage in life, I’m setting intentions
Traveled the distance, I’m 9 steps ahead of these niggas
And I don’t plan on looking back, I guess I am a magician
Made em vanish
This that Banner talk
Play it like Bruce
I calculated my steps, and mixed up some chemical juice
I took that shit to head and had me a vision of truth
That’s how I know, no matter what there ain’t no way I could lose
I done made it out the blue but I’m mastering hues
I know my spirit ain’t no thing, that this body a tool
I know they probably heard me then and thought that I was a fool
Don’t give a fuck, i set trends, I make my own shit cool
