about

Samples "Love Sounds" by the Intimate Strangers.

lyrics

I rap round the block like police tape
Never did anything to screw up all yo soundscapes
Never breathed those vapes, I turn water to vapor
My lines never taper off, less I scoff at y’all capers
Cause some of y’all wish you’d been born early, not later
Since when was life’s point ever that to you, it should cater
As if you’re a player and now we all just pieces
Just to make you love life, man that ain’t in my thesis
Cause I’m about my art, and this is how I get going
I just start spitting and flowing, keep dropping seeds cause I’m sowing
Keep making green cause I’m growing, yeah, I’m working two jobs
Alleyoops off the lobs while the bass throbs, don’t wanna hear no sob story
Unless it results in glory, but I already know
I spit gold, this ain’t show, it’s the tip of where I could go
I ain’t sing a single note, but y’all should know
If I’m going in, I only know that I’m goin let it flow

If it’s really where I should go
I let it flow-ow-ow-ow
I line these bars up right in a row
I let it flow-ow-ow-ow
And if that’s the way the winds blow
I let it flow-ow-ow-ow
And if I’ll never try to let it go
I let it flow-ow-ow-ow

Running track on these tracks with an Adidas backpack
Like yo boy can attack, never lack or picking up slack
Tic Tac Toe with my foes like I know X's and O's
Wack rappers with no game plan, they be spitting sloppy flows
Strike a pose before your time's up and all the stores goin close
Cause If fame's what you strive for, you gonna end up alone
But I'm ballin out, popping J's on the break like they pills
Ain't no drug abuse, there’s just no use getting by paying bills
Y'all love cheap thrills? I'm like see ya
Got a new path to pave, I might go off the marina
If you ain't ready yet, don't hit up the arena
I'm not a leader
Just a man with a voice but I ain't ever making any noise
I try so hard, but I still find others laughing softly
But all y’all be doubting and clowning, just get off me
I rip beats calmly, man, can’t you see what we’ve done?
The playing field’s level, but this game ain’t fun
There’s kids that are trying to get famous off of rap
But they don’t even care bout it, they just want some quick cash
If the music don't serve you, then who's it servin?
Once again, back on the track, feels like I'm still swerving
