Walk

I walk on my own trying to do what I can Undefined by the visions of man
My legs are weak from the malnutrition
Stifled with this hex of a plan, one must endure ’til they’ve
reached a demand
Needless to say but I’ve been learning to pray
Ponder through the road, lost like a wandering stray My stomach aches, not only hunger but this covered up pain
That takes me under, in reality it’s nothing but another delay
I’m not concerned nor do I care about what people expect
It’s just for me and my own, fuck the hate that shit I tend to reject
Anyone who tries to hinder my path will feel the reel of my wrath
It ain’t no joke I’m only spillin’ the facts
Rest in peace to the fallen soldiers, wherever you’re at We’re only guaranteed a casket, flowers and plaques In this lifetime of struggle, scraping by with the hustle And when you die, that’s when they love you, It’s too late for all that
It’s a harsh humanity for such a small world Although there’s many people I can vouch for
I believe in being human but some doing is uncalled for
There’s good and evil, what’s it all for
Chorus:
In this business of rep.. x2 Cuts
Do I deserve to live, or am I gonna go to hell for all the things I did
In this business of rep.. x2 Cuts
You all alone in these streets cousin, every man for theyself in this land we be gunnin’
Yeah.. what a pleasure it is right?
To watch a mothafucka weather this shit, right? I’m underway trying to find an escape
carving out my own road I don’t need to be fake
Solid in solidarity, a moment of clarity
A salute to solitude, I’m the one taking care of me
I bust my ass off trying to gather a buzz and for what ‘cause in the end I’m just looking for love
Coming up, what a rush, towards the sun, not enough With these bare hands I made plans to trudge through the mud
And get it
I got the recipe, I’m nice but don’t mess with me This ain’t no walk in the park, it’s more like the Chesapeake
This ain’t a destination, it’s more like my destiny A journey into the unknown, I’m paving my legacy Peace to the gods, universal, we infinite
Teach, do your job, make it worth it, they listening
Chorus:
In this business of rep.. x2 Cuts
Do I deserve to live, or am I gonna go to hell for all the things I did
In this business of rep.. x2 Cuts
You all alone in these streets cousin, every man for theyself in this land we be gunnin’

Get Away

When I step in the booth, I speak the truth so let me get it in
Mothafuckas won't believe until I'm severing Ghengis Khan, what you want, I'm on Mt. Everest Altitude in the Stu I ain't gonn' ever rest
Always posted on the mic to spit another rap
Then it’s right back to the job to earn another stack Doing work, it's survival of the fittest fam
Not in the mood, I'll put a stain up on ya fitted man
Y'all wanting none of that, I'm pushing overdrive Outta sight, outta mind, something you can't describe Put on a beat on I'mma show you what these bars like
Step out of line and son it’s gonna be a long night
Independent, on my job does my part right
DJ laying out them cuts like it's a sharp knife On my Heath Ledger shit, call me the Dark Night Middle finger to the One Percent and Alt-Right
Chorus:
Oooh this not me gotta find a way to get away it’s got me into another state
I gotta get away
Place ya bets, upper deck, nigga the pressure’s on Y'all overdrawn, I'm over y'all so I've been called upon All invested in myself, that's what I focus on
Ain’t nobody on my list to make impressions on
Writing lines at twenty one to me it never dawned I’d be making rebel songs they want forever gone Repertoire, all these new rappers ain’t up to par No regard, might find your body in a reservoir
Y’all blow trees, I be chillin’ out in Amsterdam
Fuck your snapchats and follows on your instagram I’m here to snap backs, you biting like a snapback LRG snapbacks, you packing up your snack pack fool
Chorus:
Oooh this not me gotta find a way to get away it’s got me into another state
I gotta get away

Santa Claus

Yo when the beat comes through, I have no flaws Just consider it a gift like I was Santa Claus
And you better believe it, one shot one take man That’s all that I’ve needed, & yea I’m sounding conceited
But go ahead and play the track again dawg, You’ll see that I mean it..
And still haters want to hate, don’t be getting mad Cause I’m on a level that you ain’t bruh
This is grown folks biz,
it’s best to step away from the mic kid, I got this shit Bringing them classics no accident
Doing work, heads bobbin’ in acknowledgement
We don’t tolerate no garbage we marvellous
So when it comes to hip hop, yo I’m hard to miss They don’t recognise their part in this
and now you faggot little rappers wanna talk some shit? Nah..
I finish my task, I kill ‘em with facts,
up in it at last, I’ve always surpassed, I’ve never been last
It’s a shame how you try to live fast, I fill in the gaps,
you spillin' your glass, yo shit is just whack
Man, you should tell yo mans to relax
We a problem, y’all scared ‘bout to piss in your pants Came from the Chi where these niggas don’t dance It’s a war zone, no way you’ll be given a chance
See we the plug, man yo shit is annoying son with more bars no this isn’t the chorus son Open new doors I’m a modern Jim Morrison Mess up your squad, yeah I be the only one
So get gone, or I diss you, a ginsu I spit raw It’s what I’m into simple An icon, I resemble a pitbull
I’m all in where it’s been due
Yeah it’s a risk though, I’m trying to live full Y’all don’t know what I’ve been through, channel my life through this pencil
This ain’t a game no Nintendo
I’ll admit I got some issues
To all my family I miss you
No time to sob I shall continue
Fuck with me I’m launching missiles
Y’all mothafuckas break, I ain’t here to play They all up in my face, fuck out of my way Clinically insane, critically acclaimed, ay
Put ‘em all to shame do it any day, ay
I’m medicating with heavens strain it’s elevating
I’m demonstrating my levitation it’s levitating
I’m never waiting, your shit is heinous you’re here to fake it
I’m integrated, collect my payment, stay in your lane trick

On The Grind

Ayo I’m banging out them tunes, yall know what it is Catch ‘em stuntin’on these tricks with a pair of new kicks
Trey Flip for your wig kid, show you what the business Sickness, wicked, can I get a witness?
It’s like that y’all, now we gettin’ lifted
You frontin on the mic, I be frontin’ off a big set Counting all these stacks, blunt in’ corners on some pimp shit,
This is how we do it pimpin’
So Dilla type, thriller hype, dynamite, kill a mic, Beastin’ mothafuckas like I’m Killer Mike
Yall can figure that I’m always bringin’ something nice Kickin’, Pushing, Coasting, listen
360, Grinding ‘cause I’m Indy
Fresh new trucks now I’m hauling through the windy Wait, shifty, grip it like a Grizzly
Bear down, Chi-town, are you with meeeee?!
(Chorus)
Yo Hands up for the grind for the skills and the rhymes
Whether it’s spitting on the corner or just skating the Chi
Middle finger to the law ‘cause they know we don’t hide
keep our chin up even higher cause we riding with pride
(x2)
I’ve been obsessed with the sound ever since I was a young cat
Walkman tape deck, hip hop pen and pad
Runnin’ around like a riot with my skate deck
Never gave a fuck what you were saying in your statements
Something about the music and the movement had me fascinated
Stuck with the illness, never got vaccinated
running around grinding ledges with the crew
there was nothing else to do and I had nothing to lose
wherever we’d go, we’d run the show, simple as that kinda funny that I’m starting to rekindle the past System on blast puff pass shorty shaking that ass and uhh..
I’m pretty certain that I’m making it last
Yeah it’s been a while now. it’s more of a plan
I’ve made my own path now that I be more of a man With my own two, take it any way that you can Sound man, keep this up turned loud for the fans
(Chorus)

Now I Understand
03:24
|

I never thought it would come down to this
My frustrations got me living in a cell nobody’s bound to miss
Ever since I was a kid, was always down to win Looking out a dirty window with my frowns and grins
Displaced from the ways that I’m trying to chase Misplaced in this place and I'm trying to wake
My inner self, lying at the bottom end of the abyss Wanna scream so loud, but I'm caught up in the midst of a
Dark opened sea of blood from the lack of love Picture perfect on a tainted glove
And I got so much in mind, it’s at the tip of my tongue striving for my own reflection with the sound of the drum
Cause this life ain’t what it seems when you’re trying to get by
Got a whole lot to redeem once I’m ready to fly
toss out my inhibitions, cross paths with intuition Questioning my own existence looking up at the sky
(Chorus)
And Now I understand...
Now I understand my man so what’s the plan? (x3) Now I understand
And here I go again, picking up the pieces to my soul, Trying to find a steady balance, trying to keep it in control
There's no telling when or where, gotta get up and roll Backpack, pen and pad, destination unknown
And no I won’t stress this mind I’m so blessed with Aligned with the message the rhymes they don’t mess with
I’m prone to refine a game that’s so hectic
Tame yet still restless, sane but don’t test this
I’m reaching through the fire but man, it feels senseless
I’m really fucking tired but man, they don’t get shit I really should retire but man, I won’t let them Confuse me for another asshole with no message
It goes on, the time that keeps passing be by I keep putting work for passion, I won’t pacify All the plans I got in mind I try to analyse
and gratify the moments I find toward the open sky
I’m holding mine with a steady grip, take a sip Learned to grasp the lessons I’ve earned and not to let em slip
I’ve opened up a door that’s unknown and been invited in
To question all the options I’m thrown, ’til the very end
(Chorus)
And Now I understand...
Now I understand my man so what’s the plan? (x3)
Now I understand
