I’m on my existential crisis flow
Feel this in my genes with the blue notes
Glued my pocket closed so the groove holds
It’s formal in the mind
Talking dress yourself up so you don’t think
That’s a wink to myself
Toss my image in the kitchen sink
Washed up
So tomorrow is told
Copped the new Jordans so my fit don’t match with my soul
It’s getting grimy day to day
Still don’t know where my real ones lay
Still wonder where my heart stay
All the way to NWA, 88’
The flow is never faked
still chilling on the lake
Straight laid back, any open hands get they head smacked
True rap for those feel that
Bap to boom, you said that your raps cool? Cap
I’m running circles round tracks while they dogs to the bowl
They lappin
Am I the only one that got they toe tappin?
I only heard hands clappin, no yappin
Call my vibe alternative, but I’m the captain
The way I’m rapping, caught a nap after the matinee
Coolin’ with my friends, someone tell me what’s happening
Spirit too rich, so let’s head back to the mansion
I’m hanging out the car window like I’m in the movies
Been saving for that motion picture, paying all in loonies
I’m breaking change casings just to match the offers looming
Now the car zooming, stay inside for beauty now, present to me
Wow, catch a L if you think you stepping to me
Imma clap you like it’s Drake against the Pacers, rest assured
You goin walk out like those UofM professors every other minute
Life is like a blur, but the moment is what’s definite
Now, in the current, go with the flow that keeps you going
Everybody judge til they look into it
Anybody judge quick get put through it
Bodies getting caught when the Lord come down
So you best stick to using your wit until you hit the ground
Cause they say real players in the game get the accolades
But some are handed fame, the rest harvest talent in a different way
We call it spirit, so until the end, I’ll be dipping quick; disappearing
From the party to hang out with close ones that I’m into hearing
Don’t start, I do not care, I’m Ed Sheeran
Used to feel foggy, now I’m in the clearing
Coolin’ with my friends, someone tell me what’s happening
Spirit too rich, so let’s head back to the mansion
I’m graceful with the motions like I’m Richard Gere
Shall we dance? Graceful with the emotions like I’m matadoring fear
Pacing like Miller, I’m all killer, moving with the Queen
Sippin clean, hydration’s high priority, my juice is green
Huh, I’m eating healthy, only problem is degrees
Cause these angles ain’t finding my good side, nah I don’t think it’s me
For these good vibes, I’m a fiend
I fall asleep in interviews cause your talking points are the opposite of coffee beans
And I like green tea, pump it in my veins
But I ain’t mean, I look to support the fam, that’s my regime
Quick to be on the forefront of the scene
Describing the series of events that led to the climax of the crime
It seems that a teen broke into the back of the McD’s last night
Stole a hundred dollars, 10 Big Macs, then dropped dead from clogged arteries
Nah, it was an AR-15
Swear this world is too messed to live in
But in the interest of good spirit, I’ll never give in
Games can be fun until you realize rules don’t matter
Those without a conscience often rise above the chatter
But I swear they souls never settle, it’s more the latter
Like they always need to be gaining and rising, they just getting wack-er
That’s the type of shit that’ll cause you to be found dead on the crapper
No thanks, I’m more an old soul than a trapper
Vibe grabber, these other rappers trash, I throw them in the compactor
Or maybe they plastic, I’ll reuse em on my tracks, make them better
Boiled under the heat, make ‘em sweat like they wearing sweaters in the summer
Bummer to those trying to bump my album in the Hummer
Kept it running but the battery still dead, no wonder
