Lyrics
Chorus Face it now, you chasin’ now, fakin’ what I do, tracin’ sounds, take imitation on my moves, you know how, you know how I can tell it’s true, I pace it now, cause there’s no other way I do, I love myself more than you by a mile & it’s true you can tell by the way that I don’t have to try x2 Say what you wanna, say what you wanna I hear ya, but I’m not listening x2 Verse 1 we don’t see eye to eye, where’s the need to compromise, been bending rules you’re abiding by, don’t make me blow up like dynamite, you’ve been treading too hard and it’s gotta stop, and you’re not dragging me down to the bottom rock, don’t hold your breath, once you’re gone youre forgot, I hope cutting you off will be honest enough, Your stone cold stare don’t hold much weight in any part of this state no more, and I told you twice s’always been me deciding my own fate uh uh, and i won’t bend over backwards, don’t look back, might escape without a trace ya know? Try to keep your image clean but sooner or later you’ll let go and those stain will show Chorus Face it now, you chasin’ now, fakin’ what I do, tracin’ sounds, take imitation on my moves, you know how, you know how I can tell it’s true, I pace it now, cause there’s no other way I do, I love myself more than you by a mile & it’s true you can tell by the way that I don’t have to try x2 Say what you wanna, say what you wanna I hear ya, but I’m not listening x2 Verse 2 When did focusing on myself make me selfish, just cuz I’m refusing to take help doesn’t make me helpless, making me out to sound wrong in the story that you’re tellin, my affection lies with these lines, these words got you jealous, heavy handed at times, cuz veni vidi vici, you treat a deep wound like a bee sting, you should’ve left the handcuffs at the precinct, I’m an unshakable skyscraper, to hell with your reaching, lemme make this clear there’s no shot here, I’ll forever love this we only met last year, cmon face that fear, let my face disappear, stop waging war, takes a drop for the tears Bridge: Cool that you’re mocking I’ll never ever have the time, I’m just driven and what’s given to me got me till I die, Lord knows I’m worth I still got both feet on the ground, I’ll be proving myself to you every day through my own style,

I wish you could understand, but my signs are hieroglyphic to Ya, you want to hold my hand, but you’re always just missing aren’t ya?

“I Can’t Help It” Chorus: I’m just out of state, I gotta catch this plane, Verse 1: There’s a spell and I’m under it, I need all of your best so just come down and save me, I know you’ve gotten tired of waiting, I just hope you have the patience? Cuz I’m always going somewhere, but if we could do it all again I wouldn’t make any changes, now life is looking to be a little bit weightless, rearrangement, open up, get your heart racing, on my mind lately, I’ll tell you why, cuz you’re worth the gold to me, the diamonds to me, these trips to me, you always see right through me, the globe to me, the islands to me, you’re everything to me. Chorus: I’m just out of state, I gotta catch this plane, Verse 2: So weak to my charm, ya can’t stay away, reminiscing alone will make you lose control, fireworks at nightfall, its you I’ve only ever set my sights on, caught a Cartier eyeful, those copper colored doubt thieves, bad thinking make a good idea, we’re too lit to turn out the lightbulbs, when I held you in the parking lot you told me don’t be a stranger, we gotta stay acquainted, wish I wouldn’t end up famous, please try to keep it all painless, I’ll tell you why, cuz you’re worth the gold to me, the diamonds to me, these trips to me, you always see right through me, the globe to me, the islands to me, you’re everything to me Bridge: Lookin’ in to those eyes, Lookin into those eyes, Chorus: I’m just out of state, I gotta catch this plane,
I had to call and say,
I thought of you today,
I can’t help it,
It’s landing in LA,
Remember all those days,
I can’t help it
I had to call and say,
I thought of you today,
I can’t help it,
It’s landing in LA,
Remember all those days,
I can’t help it
Girl you know your so fine,
What’s your plan tonight x2
I ain’t gotta think twice,
What’s your plan tonight? X2
I had to call and say,
I thought of you today,
I can’t help it,
It’s landing in LA,
Remember all those days,
I can’t help it
Verse 1 Saw the evident potential with both eyes, could tell it when I met you on the lower side, getting high ain’t fun if you don’t float by, calm these hounding nerves before the show time, and if you’re not in the equation it don’t sound good, had to climb a high mountain before I found you, you’re the root of my talents from the ground up, they could love you like I do the whole town could Chorus Colors in the sky,
When you’re by my side,
Love to see you laugh,
Hate to say goodbye,
But these colors in the sky,
Remind me that you’re mine,
You know I’ll see you soon,
Keep taking it in stride,
Colors in the sky
Chorus Cause I’m so gone, Verse 1 Imma let her leave it up to her imagination, livin an indulgent life don’t know bout moderation, double barreled whiskey is a shot of concentration, I’m capable of facing any type of combination! Having vivid dreams of moving to the west coast, with a centerfolded woman focused on my next toast, but i wake up from the black out and still tryna get thrown, I’m in the same situation I’ve been from the get go, i’ve been patient, damn i’ve waited, something good is coming my way I can taste, I’ve remained hungry, through the opportunities to just take the money, grey from sunny seen the skies turn, I’m about to acquire the satisfaction I’ve desired cuz i can only get bent for so long, the fire deep inside of the heart will burn in the bars of he who does no wrong Chorus Cause I’m so gone, Verse 2 At least I’m self aware I’ve been getting myself impaired, don’t recite any prayers but Ive been blessed I swear, I’ve had it up to here with questionnaires that question affairs, that I partake in in my own time in my own damn lane, so lets take and trip and leave it, The scenic route, I’ve seen it, convening with two beings, that meaning I’m loose leaning, man exploration is the key to expansion, and lesson taking is the key to my mansion, now if you can, if you can get through me, get quick to kick the can, card trick hit different hands, unless you can fit demands, that we gone keep command over the FAM, the FAM, now Some will run and some will stand, imma hold my ground dig my feet in the sand, just another night on the road, getting thrown, but we never ever gone forget the master plan, Bridge I can’t recognize, where I am, where am I
I’m still drunk,
I ain’t going home,
Man I’m so gone,
Slurrin’ these words,
Lettin’ shit burn,
I’m so gone,
I’m still drunk,
I ain’t going home,
Man I’m so gone,
Slurrin’ these words,
Lettin’ shit burn,
I’m so gone,
I can’t recognize, where I am, where am I
Chorus I won’t stop till I got private planes, Verse 1 Hey mama, hey mama, i think you and i should roll to the crib mama, Chorus I won’t stop till I got private planes, Verse 2 Don’t bother if you gon get insane, my pockets rarely empty cuz we bringing that change, margaritas in the tropics stay bringing them waves, and she didn’t believe me when I declared my age, I’m 21 with riveting content filling up the page, I’m a whole other animal when i rip through the stage, and I’m taking names, only way is wayland making the claims, I want a lot of hot as lava Aubrey plazas to play, wasn’t Harvard material but thats coming my way, now i need you in my life chick, wherever we flying I’ll be taking private planes in
After that plane comes the yacht,
After that yacht comes the island,
Till then I’m working… grinding…
hey mama hey mama, don’t bother if you gone bring the drama
gimme something good girl balance that karma, yellin carter hundred times youda thought it was a mantra, i wander with my gang but we aint no mobsters, just punks gettin lost among the genres, manage my game stay upping my roster, gold cleopatras, need that spirit round to open my chakras, more layin em down w less police helicopters, she my tall glass of water when I’m all hungover, now i need you in my life chick, wherever we going, ill be learning the different language
After that plane comes the yacht,
After that yacht comes the island,
Till then I’m working… grinding…
Verse 1 i know that I’ve done this before, Chorus You know I’m willing and able, Verse 2 what I see in you, i don’t normally see, so let me get to know you, Bridge Cause I’m just home for now,
can’t promise i won’t do it again,
and from the other side of the phone,
sounds like you really just don’t care
so i’ll be there in twenty minutes for you,
skip the shift, forget your employer,
granted wish you better enjoy it,
you need me for explorin
yeah you’ve stepped foot in here and now you can’t tell,
what happens in the walls of the beverly hotel,
in the morning its vacant, go separate ways and no hearts breaking,
you compelled, i hear ya coming first not hearing wedding bells,
what happens on the floor of the mark hotel,
in the morning its vacant, go separate ways and no hearts breaking,
In the summer time when it’s me and you,
It’s always been on when I’m capable,
That’s just how we make do,
Let’s get high and chill x4
getting tired of the same old place with your same old man looking over your shoulder
my track record ain’t clean, but forget that and believe, it can’t wait til were older,
theres no distance that could come in between, so lemme grab a hold of ya,
i understand you don’t know me well, but I’m so glad you left your house, saint laurent saturate the lapels, stoned gaze got me under your spell, I’ve never come across this before, jaw dropped we should talk on the floor, i got a lot of love but you should show me some more, imma give my love behind your closed door,
If you happen to be round,
We could watch the night sky x2
cinnamon breath scorches her cigarette, she had a benz take her straight from her flat to lafayette, couldnt forget the look of her silhouette, in all black with a little red roulette, an independent woman, no ones seen her bedroom, no getting in the way of her agenda or schedules, cuz lifes one big appointment, with no boyfriend she can’t be disappointed, she thinks its all pointless, she spits fire and poison, when you know that you’re royal you ignore all other voices, but i’ll make mine cut through, and ill show her exactly what I’ve been up to, i’ve seen a lot, all seas every dock, every mountain, every top, all cities all stops Chorus Cause she a trust fund baby, Verse 2 Nothing but designer on so everyone can read her, always had her clique on her side, a lying leader, don’t act thirsty, excited or eager, been there, done that, London, loved that, other peoples secrets come from in between her lips, chanel around the wrist, can tell she’s used to it, she’s a certified master of a spiteful craft, imma let her walk down that psychopath, Chorus Cause she a trust fund baby,
Verse 1
Ain’t never work a day in her life,
After one night bringin’ that home with me,
Might have to make her my wife,
Cause she a trustfund baby,
Walking around with her nose in the air,
Got those high heels on,
Spending Daddy’s credit card,
I’m hoping I can have her share,
plenty bad habits, never thinks about it, always acts dramatic, lives to be distracted, b attitude provides attraction, slain another dragon, hate it or love it let it happen, needs a partner in crime girl lets conquer manhattan,
Ain’t never work a day in her life,
After one night bringin’ that home with me,
Might have to make her my wife,
Cause she a trustfund baby,
Walking around with her nose in the air,
Got those high heels on,
Spending Daddy’s credit card,
I’m hoping I can have her share,
I said that I missed her, but I didn’t mean it, and then when I kissed her, wasn’t her Im seeing, I can’t help my feelings from fading away Chorus Here’s comes the rain, to wash away the thought of you yeah, there’s go the pain, and all the shit you put me through, was such a fool for you, i don’t know what to do, here comes the rain, help me forget your name G minor, D(sharp)major, B(flat)major, F major Verse 2 I said I would visit but i didn’t make it, another chance given, another mistake that doesn’t seem to trouble me at all, Let it all fall, let it all fall, a new days coming with the presence of the sun, and lately I’ve been looking nowhere but up, let it all fall, let it all fall for a better tomorrow, and forgetting the sorrow, I’ll be moving along Chorus Here’s comes the rain, to wash away the thought of you yeah, there’s go the pain, and all the shit you put me through, was such a fool for you, i don’t know what to do, here comes the rain, help me forget your name Bridge And now the sun is shining bright,
its not her I picture when I’m up daydreaming, so I went and wished her well can’t find a reason to stay together with you these days
I promised to listen but i was escaping from inside your prison, this rain is erasing the past we shared so let it fall
After the rain comes the light,
Can’t waste our time on a fight,
Just keep on keepin’ on,

You’ll find what’s best
Spades, clubs, and diamonds,
Answer with a wild guess,
In due time, my friend
Won’t let it get out of control,
but ya come back whenver the wind blow,
and ya got motives i needa know,
this the third time you’ve wanted more
I dont wanna but gotta forget about ya,
everything that we did you’d go announcing,
I’m here when you want me? nah I won’t allow it
expectin’ me to get down and start bowing
can’t read your mind so just say it,
it’s like when you cry in the rain,
I can’t tell how you feel girl, and I don’t know why you’re here girl,
but you gotta hear first that that
my commitment isnt a gift that just gets given when you want it,
I’m searchin for who deserves it and wont stop until I’ve found it,
but if sleeping home alone means I’m on my way,
then you and I should call it a day
Forget it, man, I oughta fold them,
put these cards out on the table
that’s the best that a man should know
thought I had a chance but I read it wrong
We crossed that bridge a long time ago,
so why the fuck did you return to burn it?
our destinations in the same direction
but you’re the one who keeps on turning,
they were always sayin good for them,
through the thick and the thin,
but they spoke too early,
don’t renew a book that you’ve already read,
brings nothing but hurting,
but you’ve left me with memories of what we coulda been,
the clock moves faster our time moves backwards,
end up waiting on a beautiful disaster,
ya sugar and spice, had me enticed,
but now I’m losing my mind, wind up dead or alive,
course I got feelings for my past couple exes,
but life’s on the highway and they’re missed exits
I can’t lie, I thought it wouldn’t be so bad
But I tried, to keep you in my life
Cause this is really all I had to say again
I wish you would really love me back again
Like you once did
I could give you what you want
If you give me what you need
I could take away your pain
and still bring you to your knees
I don’t need no guns or drugs
I just need my own company and I’m free
Oh yeah, I’m free – I could never give in
The fruit of our labor always the ripest,
Time after time I’m clocking in the night shift,
blow that green for the environmental crisis,
motorcycle license, lemme see where Mike is,
cuz we got problems but they all artificial,
they all stop when he pull out the whistle,
our team to the game fires the missiles,
armed w a pistol, scarrin that tissue,
Nikes with the red are my choice on the road,
color of the revolution yeah my voice should be heard,
from misters to misses to hipsters and more,
this efficient you wish you had this in store
but you don’t so move on we always rock steady,
born for this purpose I’m way beyond ready,
this is way beyond trendy, way beyond Fendi,
way beyond any story that’ll come to an ending
Cuz the stars gon’ shine just a little overhead
get your mind right, limelight ain’t nothing but a test
It’s okay for you to doubt me, but my inner demons live
through this music, and I use it to get ahead
Fair weather friends see the sun shining,
need find a way to prescribe the mind when crunch time hits
no stress, lets find out what unsigned is,
been dreaming about this since the lunch line with the lights on my kicks
I get congratulated but I need to work harder,
it’s time to open up cuz I can’t breathe with all this armor on,
shield in hand, wielded sword, waiting for a milestone,
keep peace, there’s no way in hell imma die alone,
I don’t care if it’s by the Atlantic or the Pacific,
the FAM crew will be a perfect addition,
it’s obvious that I slur semantics,
tryna make everything work to my advantage,
careers with no spark tend to fade out and vanish,
so don’t take on more than you can manage
I won’t laugh if you smile,
Fabricated tales tend to take a while,
I won’t laugh if you smile,
To each his own thats my way, yeah
I got tattoos, so people think I’m cool
college? I’m better than school
I smoke pot, s’only thing I do
Now you wonder why I wouldn’t trade my life with you
Why?!
Cuz you hang the same keys from the same hook every afternoon
My angels lookin down upon me from a great view, they got my back but they hate you,
This all seems so crazy, I swear I never imagined this, remember hittin’ dank in the ’94
Protege, didn’t think it happen as fast as this, but that was then and this is now
it’s a different time and a different sound,
saying new things from the same mouth, still a Coch kid in my hometown,
From a thought to a hobby to a full time career, 74th floor in Shanghai when it all came clear,
In the hills or the valley, and were far from the finale, I want this so badly, no I won’t let go
Lets meet!, I want you to know me,
I grew up in the east, on a quiet street, but Im boutta move out and sign a new lease,
Cant feel stuck, Expectations, bills and rent, s’all almost a bit too much,
but it’s money well spent, one hundred percent, I’m someone to trust,
I wanna apologize to my old friend for hookin’ up w his girlfriend,
I don’t wanna get denied from a club for the color of my boys’ skin,
but now it’s tours, wake me up, interviews, wake me up,
I hate when you expect me to pay for ya,
got friends that seem to hate me now, I guess that’s just the truth of the matter,
shouldn’t be hard to look down as you’re climbing the ladder,
I know that we are a difference in the pattern, all your fake talk got me far from flattered
run along, run along, you gon’ suck em all dry,
run along, run along, cuz we don’t no more.
Would you be so kind,
Would you be so kind just say it?
She always says she loves me when we’re drinkin,
Won’t admit it but it’s true,
I think I’ve had enough of this one,
So baby what’s your name, where you from, what’s good with you?
When she’s drunk she calls me a punk,
She blow my phone up, she don’t know what’s up,
When she drink that jack, she won’t call back
when she off that rum, she act so dumb
She tells me grow up, I say “Know what?”
She won’t let me finish, she starts to go nuts,
Stop throwing stuff, time to own up,
I’m so done, baby I’m so done
All I need to do is turn my back, and she’ll be gone for good,
finished packing my bags, going where I know I should
It’s only right for me to move on to what’s next
but when she texts me with those three words, it gets me like
She’s gotta quit showing off to all her friends
and go pick up someone else who can handle her shit
I’m so sick of this and I can’t pretend
but I’ll be stuck with this girl like wet cement
I don’t want her following in my footsteps,
but I think my shadow needs it
despite her good side, and some good sex,
I’d rather go through amnesia and forget all about it
No reason to get so dramatic
I’m more manual, she’s automatic
Oh, tryna get rid of her static,
I got smacked last night, it makes sense tonight
well, it’s time to tell her that I’ve had it, cuz
Take my hand, let’s start new
I wasn’t planning on it but I’m liking you
And we just met, but I get you
you seem like the type that’s got something to prove
come on and dance, let’s see you move
this ain’t the first time that I’ve noticed you
take off those heels, let’s keep em new,
now bring that body closer for a few
And I tried to make you understand that I’m not sorry
No, I’m not sorry, baby I’m not sorry, I’m not sorry
I dropped my walls, opened locks, let you in,
Shared with you all those thoughts about movin’ in
Put all my trust in you while we were a fling
Cause I don’t pretend, say it to the end,
I’m not sorry
Apologies won’t come from me,
don’t believe ya to be someone of a quality,
you’re lower than the European economies,
I know what you do when you visit your friends at their colleges,
spittin red cup mythology
and they all eat it up like piranhas see?
Don’t acknowledge me anymore
I can’t fuck with you,
I don’t know what to do,
you were way too quick to get comfortable,
we all know this shits nothing new,
girl i’ve done enough for you,
and I’m hardly getting repaid,
many days since we laid,
are now we in fifth grade?
you’re just afraid
i think ya wish it was different
but ya kissed him in the kitchen
so i went along and broke it
sorry i don’t wanna continue this intermission,
I’m in the middle of switching to someone more open,
you thought i wouldn’t notice,
but i only focus on what i keep closest,
you’re a plague and i don’t need no locusts,
go find out whats at the bottom of the ocean
Where do we go now?
You know I wile out every time that I go south,
Ain’t nothin to talk about cuz I’m on my own now,
A situation that I hadda just pull out
so you can get that tattoo w you own cash,
didn’t wanna admit it but you’ve got no ass,
It’s hard to get used to someone who moves so fast,
Ya took ecstasy in Chesapeake
you don’t needa tell me the rest of it,
and know my recipe is excellent
you’re another notch on my headboard,
don’t test me, payback had to be the next thing
oh shit don’t hold me back,
peace and quiet you owe me that,
leaving you the loneliest,
girl fall back like the foliage,
ya can’t change the past,
you’re never shakin that,
i hate ya now, I’m not sorry
Jeans with the tuck – rockin’ whatever we want
bags packed up – haulin’ whatever we want
showin’ up late – cause it’s whatever we want
steppin’ on your turf, takin’ whatever we want
We rep that F -A- M, who bring that evening right to the end,
got some good friends out in Japan, word of mouth that’s how we expand,
it’s a concrete fact I won’t be sleeping on the sidewalk,
don’t buy a lock cuz I’ll pop it up and drive off,
pride of the city, provided with eyes of a hawk,
let bygones be bygones it happens a lot
often misconstrued as a student but I’m a boss,
and a couple more drinks’ll get the truth out baby,
time to cool off baby, so we’ll pool hop baby,
then spend an afternoon in the boondocks baby
so get on the train, get your sleeping compartments,
yeah you heard correctly, i’m on the market,
speaking bout the FAM from India to the Arctic,
Don’t get used to what you see them do, it’s all a mirage,
I’m still pulling up in a Volkswagen Passat, most imagine a lot,
and they curious about my whereabouts,
picture perfect world production not produced by Paramount
It’s Carter Reeves, please call me one of the out of towners,
It’s limitless and boundless, minimal with the doubters,
I’ve been around the world at unconventional hours,
it’s old school now, so I’m bringing it back,
from LA to Fenway, they facing the facts,
and this pace that we’re at, has the greatest effect,
to stay prepping up for whatever is next,
look no further RZA told me roll a fatty doe,
she thinking holy matrimony, she can’t fully have me though,
soon enough you’ll be hearing this voice upon the radio
Pretty lady, what’s your number?
won’t you tell me where you’re going after this?
I see you struttin’ round in your short skirt
Bet you’re headed to the beach by the bayside
I just want you around me, I just want you around
Are you a 6-1-7 or 5-0-8?
got me ridin on I-95 straight to your place,
it won’t be spoken about, it’s celebration
baby what we smokin to now?
How bout that body, your out of town smile,
or the fact that I haven’t gotten down in a while,
sall good though,
I’ll get ya screamin in the front row,
The correct information makes it all happen,
no downside can’t ya see that now?
yoga mat in your arms well I don’t know how
I didn’t notice that before, by the ocean every morning,
gettin to you know is on my list of importance,
gotta assist with the scoring,
got a mission before me,
just listen up to this recording
I want somebody to need this body [x2]
You’ll learn I’m honest, I keep my promises,
make you love me not what’s in my wallet
and I’ll show you the strongest,
how the other side of the pond is,
don’t know me, then you don’t know modest
One quick pace and ya face got me brainwashed,
sun came out and the god damn rain stopped,
10/10 you gotta aim up,
burnt brown hair and an Hermes tank top,
what you wanna do? Ill give you one minute,
obvious attraction you and me it’s physics,
let me know if you wanna get in it,
it’s something new baby get widdit
Been meaning to write you sincerely
so let me lay this down
ain’t much to say unless it’s a vow
so what’s this about?
Give me nothin, I’ll take it on my own,
Got a whole lot to go, only slow when I’ve grown old,
One piece of advice, for you lime light seeking shh,
twitter plus the couch equals never gonna blow,
You can talk a big game, you can wanna walk to fame,
the sidewalk ends fall off if the grind ain’t the same as the FAM,
nothing to gain if you can’t get yourself outta the place that you claim can’t help,
the climb gets harder, my arms gettin stronger,
you blind man cuz you’re starting to wander,
snake of the game bringin nothing but problems
I’d arrive before you if I decide to drive slow,
but I’m not I’m posted up never lie low,
you’ll vanish real quick like your missing dog Fido
It’s a curse and a blessing to get this way in the first place,
and your shit was supposed to drop around my 15th birthday,
gotta be real and cleaned up behind curtains,
is this really your grand scheme to prove that you’re worth it?
I’ve seen it before but good job,
They click next stray away quick move along,
Shake they head said They never going back to this blog,
Can’t use your brights homie your heads filled with fog
If you want something grab it, if you have a beat stab it,
shitload a legwork not just livin lash, I’m up at 3 AM and I’m still mentally active,
mind is traveling to a height that’ll send your ass packing,
in the third row seat of the van realizing opportunities within patience,
instant gratification not planned for your brand,
buzzer beater precision they comin runnin from the stands
Catch me holdin on the OE, conversate with Zoe,
only gonna remember her T-shirt with David Bowie,
its so clear the hipsters here, and the queens are there, and the rest are near
It’s the FAM crew and were back at it again,
this time in a house of a friend of a friends,
only 11 PM, now with your eyes and your ears listen up to how the story begins,
the beat brought the energy, I brought the soul,
hope I don’t get drowned in liquor and end up runnin home,
got my homies to keep me composed, now that’s real,
and that girl Zoe over there knows the deal
I don’t wanna cuff to confine me
every move you make choose your way (I’m with it)
Gettin’ loose with crew right beside me
let me approach what I scoped out (I’m with it)
Any minute now we can exit the spot
and take what we got home and get acquainted
lift your brow got me spillin’ out vows
from your style to your smile – love you got me chasin’
Lets go! Cmon! time to break up the best smoke
“Carter can I hit it? don’t make me kiss ya and beg for it,”
this house so big it needs exploring,
so come along girl were diving in head first
one more minute and we’ll bring it to the bottom floor,
applaud for the encore, and I ain’t even on tour,
the thunderstorm is coming, I wonder who will conquer?
That’s simple it’s me, got the freshest expressions and essence up on my tee,
they all askin’, how’d I end up like Jay Gatsby?
with a smoking section, dance floor, and a porch to cool off,
barely know her but I know that she’s rarer than moon rocks
with Cartie in this bitch the party don’t stop ha
Bad judgement and unbuckled belts,
too busy doing something else,
flirting with regret while the ice in my scotch melts,
too short sighted to see the morning of guilt,
rules broken by unspoken agreements,
five backslides won’t help the healing,
direct contact that’s way too recent,
but I feel too good to notice a bad feeling,
Too much liquor is never the sole reason,
order another pitcher til my heart stops beating,
caught in a daze but my lungs still breathing,
slave to an impulse I’m just a human being,
2 AMs an enemy yeah it’s my darkest hour,
park across the street and come meet me up in the shower,
ending a situation that started with a flower,
in a grey area I’m about to get devoured,
And she moan every time I’m in it
Undecided but I find her with me
Judgement cloudy cuz the booze been in me
Wake up and she’s by my left
Please tell me that we ain’t have sex
Her cigarette taste all on my breath
Temporary satisfaction,
urges of young passion,
creating chaos in an orderly fashion,
if I’m lucky I’ll remember a fraction,
I should be elsewhere but this a welcomed distraction,
spending every evening together like olden days
but everything’s changed,
her jeans still have the acid wash stains,
and my neck still gets tangled up with my chains,
personal gains
caught a cab underneath the star shine,
shadow of her skin on the wall from the hall light,
keep yourself warm on a late fall night,
but i’m guilty, and i’ll admit to that,
heart’s losing but my body is winnin’ now, vicious cycle,
stuck among it, bad conscience that can’t stop running
I never wanna know ya
I think I see him walking
Collide with the ghost above my floor
High, headed up the corner,
I think I see him walking,
Say hi to the ghost I won’t become
He and I could fight all night
but he is me, so get this right,
I’m torn inside but act so bright,
and who to be i can’t decide,
diesel from forty, on top the dresser,
inhale the smoke, i’ll clean the mess up,
opaque hope, extreme measures,
indulge in all types of pleasures,
don’t talk to him I can explain it much better,
not a level head and will say anything bout you,
looking in the mirror finding someone to shout to,
the answer’s in the haze so i’ll figure it out soon,
i’m keeping up cuz i’m fast learner,
tryna disregard my evil as the worlds turnin,
the ego in each of us wants to eat through the furnace,
and then heat up your house and just laugh it off as it’s burning
I’ve learned to pick quality over quantity,
when does confident become cocky?
what if i told you that’s not me,
hiding behind expensive liquor and kawasakis,
the diamond’s getting bigger i’m in the rough of the rockies,
power trippin, tricked into giving the guy who brought me
what he deserves, been on my nerves,
despite it all i can find the courage
I’m high in attic, so close to the angels,
i’m tryna get out and see the world from all angles,
he only wants to stay in and polish up all his medals
spun out in the city makes it hard to say i’m stable,
ain’t giving up for nothing no homie I won’t settle,
crumbs crushed up on the old wooden table,
high above the problems is me having my head up
You can hear the party from a mile away,
unmatched smile got the style and grace,
so if you wanna move lets find the pace,
walkin up like by the wayumm hey lady what it is?
have your friends bring they friends like one two three
Don’t give it up so fast
I could show you how to groove with it
Don’t give it up so fast
Ey girl, keep movin it
Don’t give it up so fast,
I think I might choose you miss
Don’t give it up so fast,
Everyone’s still doin’ it
There’s moves to be made and I was made to make moves,
there’s lotta talent here that needs to break loose,
on the floor with four girls so that’s eight shoes,
didn’t see that shake so lemme get take two?
Oh shit I’m at the bar again, this my own tux didn’t borrow it,
I told that chick I’m an artisan on a trek to find out what karma is, cuz Ha!
All it really was was one dance, initiated by one glance,
and it was just common sense, I gotta admit I’m a little bit impressed,
it’s a story bout a girl ill survive to tell, seems like I’m alive and well,
looks like Kelly K from saved by the bell, rhythmic secrets we ain’t never gonna tell
girl shake that body, that’s why you’re here,
what else you gonna do girl? I thought I made it clear,
go on shake that body, what else you gonna do?
that’s what happens with the FAM crew
I don’t care if she’s driving,
takin me home we in private,
make sure I won’t be drunk dialing,
chemistry’s keeping all night and day,
I’m one of the son of a guns who can get a good nun to get up and get drunk,
I’ll end up with a mom and a blunt at your spot, I’m takin it straight w a couple of rocks,
I’m complacent I’m not really someone to talk a face off at 4 in the morning
I know I’m all for it, so baby lets rock

You’re giving a lit up Olympic torch to your competition to beat ya
No buts or ums, cuz that ain’t fun,
Finally hear your feet knockin on the floor of your room
Now learn a new task, become a maven
Then give it a couple weeks of training you just need dedication
I’m who moves the roosters from the coop to get you up and at em’
Saturday morning doing sh*t you couldn’t ever fathom
You got ideas then do something
Instead of worrying bout who the f*ck is looking just keep it movin
So my brothers and my sisters, everyone in the FAM
Can be bold, stand out and yell
“F*ck the plan!”
I can do this till’ I’m dead’s how it should sound,
If you pressin’ snooze, you bout to lose

I’m comin’ up on that dream while you watch TV
You were born with the power so why not succeed?
I wasn’t built in a day, yea you better believe
Even on stilts you don’t look down on me
Erase the boundaries
Put by yourself
Step out the comfort zone
It’s for your health
Without askin, the answer’s no
It’s the fam that can hand you the plan to own
I can do this till’ I’m dead’s how it should sound
If you pressin’ snooze, you bout to lose

Dave: walking’ through my front door
Carter: Spend my money but I’m
Dave: Slowly makin’ back more
Carter: Never knew I had
Dave: Time to even the score I let you take all I had to give
and I’ve reached the point of leaving, I never thanked you,
for making up my mind, I just don’t have the time,
girl you act like a child, so don’t expect me to wait for you, no,
comin’ out the trouble, after massive attack,
I’m pullin’ myself up from the rubble,
never end up face down, my heart in her hands again,
I’mma pass my love to crowds and spill my soul out with this pen,
and I can’t be walked upon, well I’ve had enough,
let you win at mini golf, bitch you can’t even putt,
thought I’d take a bullet for you, thought you’re worth my blood,
It’s obvious you’ll never notice what’s up girl
Dave: walking’ through my front door
Carter: Spend my money but I’m
Dave: Slowly makin’ back more
Carter: Never knew I had
Dave: Time to even the score I let you take all I had to give
90 percent of the hours consisted of you pissed, only 10 of love
had to cut her rope (snip), layed out upon the hammock,
got out of there quick like a qualified bandit,
and I’ve been searching for a fresh new twist,
finally have them keys to rid them cuffs around my wrist,
I can be on my way, you got no words to say,
that can change my mind, I’m not playin’ games
Dave: walking’ through my front door
Carter: Spend my money but I’m
Dave: Slowly makin’ back more
Carter: Never knew I had
Dave: Time to even the score I let you take all I had to give
was taken relentlessly,
and all I wanted to gain (all I wanted to gain)
washed right away with this evening’s rain
Dave: walking’ through my front door
Carter: Spend my money but I’m
Dave: Slowly makin’ back more
Carter: Never knew I had
Dave: Time to even the score I let you take all I had to give
behind a smile, she wanna borrow a couple coins for the bus ride home, it’s five minutes til her psych test,
She promised to leave, and I guess I believed her,
don’t need to change the key like Lex Luger,
never rubbed the belly of a Buddha, I have luck stuck in my blood,
girl now it’s runnin’ through ya,
She left, I stayed afloat in my bed,
I was tempted to go pick her up from class but I rolled up instead,
candle burnt to the bottom of the wick,
It’s the one I had, lit in my room just before she came through,
She can laugh with my main crew,
that’s how you know she gon stay so cool,
Her body’s so smooth like a summer sand dune,
It feels so good when everything’s brand new,
always bettin’ high, that’s how we do it on my side of town,
peeled the same bill twice she made me miscount,
don’t slow down, you make me feel right,
the 55′s ready for tonight, can’t stop my stares,
girl, this dress way too tight,
time for me to show you why you chose to be with me alright?
Grip on my skin, kiss on my lips, grab on your hips, and work it,
no need for courage, cuz you found your niche, where everything is perfect,
and I like that style, make her open up her smile, I’ll devote my time with her,
and I knew when I met her, everything would get better, so I’m heading on the road with her tonight
some by the pool, mixing drinks, straight coolin’,
while other’s are struggling, just to be a student,
uncover the bright side, it’s always time for that,
no more running kids with AK’s strapped to back,
I’mma reach my inked out arm to help, don’t think that it’s all gone to hell,
Look ahead, look to the future, sew up them sutures, mend the world,
pick up the loser, put down the uzi, headlines lined with crime alerts,
some of the sickening things that are happening come from the lack of respect,
it’s all big heads, yeah we’re doing well, pick up the slack and take on what’s next
I’m a self made man, that’s right, still the damn same, but I’m on the tracks to a louder life,
and I’m fortunate enough to have that income coming in,
we hold it down and stay grounded, some of y’all just hovering and go!
Focus on a mind outside your own,
never change for anyone at all
surveying the land around me, picking at herbal blends and sage,
I got the FAM helping me, taking the game over stealthily,
looking for clues that’ll lead me to ladies, who’ll come to the house with me,
we go by rollers, buyers, I’m at the front of a long line and I know,
this is where that I’m meant to be, splitting leaves, fill it with trees now,
you gotta breath out, relax now!
flicking the stick in a tray never middie’s kid, (you never know!)
I’m thinking of gripping this business, that FAM shit,
can’t miss this, no longer gonna be restless,
thought I wasn’t cool at first, but now I’ve got them second guessing,
finna sip water on the moon, but the problem’s not the reach,
I’mma fly to the bright side, a bag of that green’s what you need,
Wayland High’s got something in the water, it’s been steady spewing stars,
George Guest on the back of Sammy Adams breathing Fresh Aer, now we in charge,
I’ve been waiting for this day, for so long
At Bodega, stay repping FAM you already know, (Where the money from)
Pushing product to your pocket that’ll make you rocket off, never stoppin’
cuz I know you heard from her that I got that shh,
keep it on the down low if you’re tryna pack good,
If the quantity’s got me impressed, I’ll ride,
I travel for nothing less than a slice unless a ten’s tryna cop a dime,
Scheming some high stakes plans they stay opaque,
reupping before the weekend come I bet the flip’ll take, how long?
about an hour, why?, it’s cuz it’s sour,
kingpin I come to win, she just alleviate the power,
which crab’s gonna get a bag full of shake,
green slick whipping, no slip ups or mistakes,
this is just one of the couple ways I’m out getting paid
I’ll be there for ya, phones blowin’ up got another order,
If you want trees!
Tell me where your dorms at, 20 for the daps, yup thats the format.
Got kid’s clogging up my spot, betting on a quick fix, well as long as it’s bought,
no explanation for the neighbors, if she’s coming I can save her, half of what I’m lighting, celebration of the majors,
that personal stash to the side, you in debt, I’m all right, it’s that green, it saves lives, I’m around, just give it a try,
(But you’re on fire)
Man I know that but I gotta keep my head level enough to be controlled yeah,
(I like your style)
well thanks, but thank me when you’ve unpacked that Armageddon dank,
(you’re on my speed dial)
I appreciate it, tell your friends I got a question for them just like this
I’ll be there for ya, phones blowin’ up got another order,
If you want trees!
Tell me where your dorms at, 20 for the daps, yup thats the format.
I get fly cause my assignment is to kill these shows,
some people don’t know how,
fresh top to bottom we just don’t, give a fuck about your style.
Aye griff, Miggz, hold my coat
chicks at my spot be the hottest,
air max under my new corduroys,
neighbors telling me to turn down the noise,
huh? what? why you gotta ruin my buzz? huh? what? come on man…
Carter’s got no plans of stopping, hop on this hop beat, try and top it,
she watch Degrassi, heels on the coffee table, blow like kamikaze,
hit up Ohio to kick it with Bobby, folded like origami,
You keep saying let’s drink, but you never pour,
fruit of the loom, cream of the crop at the door,
nice effort girl don’t try to allure me, if you fuck with me you needa know, well,
I make a sane girl crazy, a go getta girl lazy,
been running the same crew, humming the same tune since i was a baby,
two decades later they say they gon crave me, so light up that good, let’s get this room purple hazy,
chicks at my spot be the hottest,
air max under my new corduroys,
neighbors telling me to turn down the noise,
huh? what? why you gotta ruin my buzz? huh? what? come on man…
I live under cover,
cuz when you unwrap it,
I’m like the commander of action,
while ripping a verse,
and flicking my ash,
If you thinking of shit talking, and cutting my line,
I’m coming running with a hundred summoned buddies of mine,
Y’all know Griffin will flip on the sinners,
and Gabe will be holding it down,
and Glove will come through at the end of it all with a clutch amount of that loud,
chicks at my spot be the hottest,
air max under my new corduroys,
neighbors telling me to turn down the noise,
huh? what? why you gotta ruin my buzz? huh? what? come on man…
if the sun shines, off my eyes, I fall to my feet, the skies, are a clear blue, my blind fold to grey,
You know my thinking’s clearer after dark, get the lights off that’s the best part,
And I know, that this has been a long time coming,
but there’s a twenty deep list of people who I swear wouldn’t find this shit funny,
If you’ve got the same intentions as me, I won’t end up running,
cuz you’ll keep your mouth shut, you know I’ll keep your tongue in,
I don’t want lies, I just want time to lay you down, get hypnotized,
making every little minute that she with me a prize, secret’s got an upside,
don’t get pissed, no slammed doors, feeling good, nothing more,
girl I love what we got, you gotta,
Keep it on the low
do us a favor and delete this text,
I don’t fuck with the stress, look at what I got in my Guest,
It’s a pack of king papers, a bag of bad behavior, to take you away from this mess,
girl I can’t fall in love with you, I’ve seen that side of me before,
If you like our location under the radar, then lay low, and say nothing,
If they ask I’mma stay,
Can’t fuck with my mind, I don’t have the time, I’m ducking her signs
Keep it on the low
and you can get back in to this bed of mine

“Room to Breathe” Swoop down get it in bounce, the town’s silence, “Somewhere I Been” (Chorus – Dave) Somewhere I been, (Verse 1) She got the style, she got the habits, (Dave) Put the pieces in the puzzle and you’ll find, (Carter) It may sound cliche but her smile can tell it all, (Dave) We’ve been livin’ a lie, “Ride Up feat.

Jordan Looney” (Verse 1 – Carter) I don’t got a job, but I still make sense, (Chorus) And I’m gon follow you back, “Another Face” I’m sportin a buzz cut, cuttin the buns up,
a room the finest woman full of diamonds,
I find this evening to be more than a rumination runnin back and forth through the doors of this colorful scene and I,
she my queen and I’m the king,
runnin things and I got my eyes on it, I want it,
my dreamcatcher caught it,
sick of it I’ll rhyme illicitly on the front screen,
while in touch with the aquamarine,
hot topic is what you can’t normally see,
fires only burn when they room to breathe
It’s gunna be alright,
It’s gunna be alright,
Just know she got real,
She got the only thing I won’t,
She got everything I’d ever want plus magic,
I know if she can roll then I can go with her flow,
Not a concern if I burn,
Seeing that I’m earning a little while learning a little something bout the game,
She don’t care, she don’t care,
If I go home with another name that night,
Damn that’s right, she right there,
Four Loko, barely toked though,
She know my flow and what I wrote though,
Her eyes’ll open up that door, no key,
No time to ride that whip solo,
Gotta grab her heart,
Put on my halo, get a little false,
Just for the day yo, ride down Rodeo,
You’ll be my angel, no need to stay home
Just enough to help to keep you satisfied,
I know ive chosen right when my highs begin to stall,
and lies from our heads start to fall,
the fighting is no wall,
she’s safe with me even when were breaking the law
All I want is a try,
A little love on the side gets me,
Pullin’ over the ride,
Drop the window and smile,
She can tell me anything its me,
Hate seein my breath when I’m sitting here, know the snow will never budge,
Late nights cold and flakes stuck on my shoulder, depressing but I guess I’ll stay warm,
My feet on the incredible heat machine, reefer steam,
the next step needs to be the song,
underground but high right now,
break your spine tryna get down,
bare light bulb 120 volts in this corner,
the musics at fault the flows dried up,
lookin for inspiration for writing,
but the pencil seems to have more thoughts than I do,
False criminal gossip,
hydroplane across the snow and the rain to get original products,
one head light out the other is flawless, I promise,
I know it’s small but the work was honest
Anyone besides us, yeah just turn that shit down,
Fresh aer for your lungs
I’m kushed up, I’ma finna shut it down,
Everywhere my team go you know they come around,
Good love feline’ like I’m in my home town,
Fresh Aer for the soul,
Night feels young,
Drinks still cold,
Playin’ beer pong while these bitches get low,
Party all night till the sun get old girl,
and them lames gunna hate,
But we liven’ it up so fuck what they say,
Mind so gone I’m just floatin’ in outer space,
drink in my hand we just rocking’ to the bass girl,
And I got winners all around me,
shootout to the High Life and them good trees,
Got a couple bad bitches common’ home with me,
I’m on me G shit Aer tell um what it means,
my music’ll be your savior, later maybe later,
I can sing something for ya deliver it to your door then
spread positive vibrations that’s what I’m about,
take my phone, click remote,
then you control the Bob Marley that can continuously flow
through the amp, go to my hand, we sittin’ in my backyard,
forgetting that life can be hard
so you can soak in the kaleidoscope
step aside I ain’t sittin on the sidelines,
say what’s good if you see me fly by,
feel I bring my vibes get you bye high,
rep a side get denied simmer down now,
listen up to my lyrics get a shout out,
Sname run the game and Piffs gettin with it,
Glove pass the bong to Coop to rip it
Each mother fucking word coming from the breath from this chest,
With some treasure, from underneath me,
The X is where I’m digging,
Way down deep,
Seep through my skin,
Lime light lovin’ lightin’ me,
Rhyme tight my sight seems to be clearing up,
Steering my car down to town,
Then I pound shots, get another round,
Til I’m on the ground, Bitch know she love it,
Not above, influenced by the best,
But I had fun with it, get with it,
Cuz if you ain’t with it, we’ll take it from you,
Cuz we better, I bet you can’t do what I do,
Upsetter, get her wetter, read that letter,
I’ve had enough, to let her go,
To the fires burnin’ in the past,
And I’m gon follow you back,
Never know, never go, yeah
fun I woulda done stuff with you and your rum rushed tut fucks,
tough luck my friend but today’s not the end,
I’ll livin another day seein another face,
and I’m a super bowler with the nuts the bolts,
see what I got in my folder, files and styles from when I’m older,
futuristic egotistic, sin and a whisky,
fillin the quiet with my two timing and rhyme schemes Simon says to me just please stay tracking on, go hard but not off the course like home alone on a Saturday night gettin fucked up send an invite all, tiring but peaceful til you get that call
“The Reach” Alright enough fucking around, (Chorus) Yeah get it with the movement, (Bridge) I been spendin’ time blowin’ out all these ghosts, “Comin’ From A Basement” (Verse 1 – Dave) I’m just fuckin’ around thought I’d throw this down, Yeah (Chorus) Comin’ from the basement call me a liar, (Verse 2 – Carter) The root of our music induces the fuming of nuggets, “Run Again” (Chorus) Something makes me run from nothing, (Verse 1) You couldn’t call me a saint, you’ll have to call me a sinner, (Verse 2) Not givin’ up some love is like a gun in my waistline, (Bridge) It’s 5 AM, “School” (Verse 1 – Carter) First question I ask before all my sessions, (Chorus) Come and get high with me and my friends x4 (Verse 2 – Carter) Came in to get a new high, rubbin my eyes, light and my mind comes untied, (Bridge) And I be sippin’ on, “Come and Go” (Verse 1 – Carter) A bit more time till I get that sign that tells me I can go, (Chorus – Dave) Hear the rhythm and bump, (Verse 2 – Carter) Even, thinkin’ about, and drinkin’ that, (Bridge) One, two, three, “Lights (Can You Keep It)” Can you, can you keep it, ah yeah, (Bridge) Let me ride on you, (Verse 2 – Carter) She gonna see, ima that guy, “Every Day” It goes on every day, (Verse 1 – Carter) It’s like I’m in a war, never runnin’ for the hills, (Chorus – Dave) Music is my vitamin, (Verse 2 – Carter) Still shootin’ but I’ve run outta ammo, (Bridge – Dave) Hopin’ for the best,
don’t got the time to sit down,
Gotta keep pushing and reaching for the clouds,
the top is gonna deliver the rock infused the rap and the hip hop,
style of new music that’ll suck you in to the sitcom of our life,
episode in South Carolina imploding my mind,
with the types and the thoughts of the southern women I get lost in it, withering away the cold weather today, ya see me?
Fraternity brothers are giving us one color green,
in the form of weed, I’ll smoke while they’re chasing diplomacy,
I’m gonna get the money you owe to me, solo in the fleet,
photoshoot in the sea, tides pull back on the water,
we’ll wonder the sidewalks of a broken city,
i cant honestly believe where ive come and where I’m gonna be after two more weeks fuckin with the reach
come and join us for the ride
And with no lies you can knock on my door,
Fresh aer keeps you livin the moment,
Singin’ bout the want for the greater love,
Rollin’ one back to the left side,
Rollin’ one back right side,
I put the beat on loop,
Kick back and write a verse,
Scratch the pencil on the paper tryna fit my thoughts to words,
and verbs curb my urge to spit faster,
grab a pizza from down the street hit up my dudes after,
steppin’ out Nat’s looking’ at the next chapter,
I got way more time than money so that’s the motive,
I get at your older bitch,
tell her it’s the new kid screwin’ around,
I don’t try I do it for sound love when the crowd gets down at the shows around town,
cause flows get out of style,
After a while I put out an album for free,
Cause when I’m live people see the real me,
Tell um at the place that they gota catch up,
We’re rollin’ up the trees lookin’ out for the fire,
Winter summer spring get your shoes laced up,
I’m right above it, with flubber indulging in buckets of green,
i can tell cut the scene outta my movie,
fibbin, then shiffin my hoop D, kiss good but real toothy,
Tame but I gotta see if she wanna get busy with my flow better yet I’ll get number livin it under duckin a hundred thunder bolts,
frivolous wandering under dogs, remember the pogs?
Shakin saws then shakin paws unzippin the rim of the feminine enemy,
end of the leather path some of the regular sets and reps assemble a center of assassins, summer’ll be passin I’ll just be laughing,
smokin the grass n sippin from brass,
I’ll fuck with that shit
Fucked up more than once and,
Cleanin’ off my slate before I run again
comitting bigger, than 21 saying “winner winner chicken dinner,”
I can’t get civil, filled with evil, evil,
travels in messages from owls and eagles,
no flowers so freedom, yeah,
I’ve done wrong, I’ve fucked up,
can’t take it back but I gotta face it with my fucking hands up,
her hate attack is tangible,
gimme one good reason I shouldn’t walk on out that door
and count that cash that could be caught without your walk upon my chest,
I’m not, here
safety off, got nowhere to be so I make everything take time,
everything remains fine, everyone runnin down their pre determined paths while I make my own, exploration around the world,
flown, to another destination, another girl,
never been that shiver down your little ass spine,
always been that plane of kush and a glass from the best vine
and she knows
Bowl, bub or bong with some hemp wick,
what do you wanna smoke,
something with 30 percolators maybe more,
get Asher on phone, it’ll be not too long,
I’m getting high on Highgate, after school Friday,
someone is gonna get hit by the Vertigo,
laughing so hard I’m sideways
Shits mediocre, coke iced up, so I slide on down to loker,
I don’t know, what to do with my life besides get high,
And make music, on top of the world Carter,
no I’m playin thatll never be me, I’m getting’ a sack,
breakin it up and rollin an L of some potentcy
Numb and I’ll live with the promising sign,
Packin some of the kush in the bong, illadelph beaker bottom,
Blood shot never get caught, pumpin up full throttle, double or nothin for models,
Shouts to side sex and stressing on nothin, thanking my mother from bringin me up to something, songs about weed seem to be overseen, by the scene but please listen to these
Come and get high with me and my friends
Rippin’ bowls,
Tippin’ hoes over,
Zipper closed,
Finger froze,
Whoa bitch hold up!
Propellers, spin, in air when I lit the decimal at 3 in the mornin I look at the floor I’m zonin’ come and get high
Evolution the solution, heres some tickets to my show,
Escape this in case you can’t identify my flow,
Gotta wake up and make my take of this forsaken word,
Fitted cap on ready to get my night on,
A-life grey covering’ up my toes, feline’ double oh seven,
sneaking up in the darkness, showin’ up is the hardest,
I’m alarming, the door kicks open,
I see my boys and kush gettin’ smoked in,
in out the door, ate a bit, refrigerator with the 40s,
priority of tonight to unite us
fall in love with the funk,
let us hand off the vibe to you,
hands up high if you want it,
Give me nothin’ I’ma write a song,
Give a shit what outsider’s on,
Never have and I won’t stop,
You can tell me anything you want,
shit from last night, I can’t do it,
weak stomach, spendin’ cash on the rum and the drugs,
even if the stocks have plummeted,
to the ground, compensation with a good time,
and it sounds like you gotta go, there’s no more time for me,
it’s like a rhino muy thai fighting a freak,
but then I jolt awake, bout to break, headache stronger than the power of fate,
and i remember back, it goes,
1 shot, 2 shot, 3 shot, all the way to ten like Lil Jon’s living in the back of my head,
then the blackening begins, sins were happenin’ like the rapture being captured again
Scream out loud,
Fighting for you,
I said we fight for the youth,
Can you keep it common’ round,
Can you, Can you keep it, ah yeah,
You look like something’ I could sing about,
Friday night no parents gonna be at her crib,
maybe we can sit out on the terrace or sip on a drink,
but either way I’ll be gone for the night, laying down feeling alright,
your silence is cut by Pilot Talk on the speakers,
hooking up and untying our sneakers,
taking off my new tshirt, she want to turn the lights off but then i cant see her,
Before, I say I’ll downplay some more,
my phones off the clock says to start the tour
of the body, the life inside the mind,
connected in sections of the brain but outside,
I can see that she’s into me diggin the feelin I’m givin her,
like the Boston symphony but that shits too sweet,
I’m just passin through underneath sheets
summertime on through wintertime and do it all,
freezing fingers outside it’s on me,
see the breath of a liar leave my chest,
coma the floor, no bed,
I’ll assign myself to the bettering of tonight,
the veteran of this crime, fill my cup with somethin’,
foam with a bit lime, I wanna skip the fine dine,
maybe after high times, if your friends come by,
maneuver as our bodies are fuming from accumulating relations after conversation,
fully body elation, it comes it goes,
we both know it won’t last long so we gotta roll with it while we can,
never whip up in her hand, never rip up a too talented eye kind of man,
like me comin up from the MA, on the up and up,
and open up account in her name, I’m just playin babe,
I don’t have that type of money to be playin with today
it’s on my mind,
Fighting against the corporate, only in it for the bills,
Get picked young to make a quote “sick song,”
Wrote to fit any beat he’ll put on,
Auto tune that and put effects this,
Make you sound like a robot sucking a dick,
Ha, got offered to lose creativity,
To be living with money infinity,
That don’t sit well with me
I’m losing time and time again,
But something brings me back on top,
Just bring me the light,
I’m at a place where the darkness keeps me alive,
But I feel alright,
Just need a sun to shine down on me,
I’m an animal, hands are full,
I’ll eat anyone, not a cannibal,
No hand signs, or coke lines, or bad dimes,
Without that shit, I can make it to the top fine,
Fire, like stop, drop, and roll,
Whip out the Flip get that shit on record,
Laughing at our moment yeah you say you want more,
Sober and I’m over getting hold up in the fray again
lucky I’m alive
