Virtual Concert Lyrics HAKIM

Lyrics by HAKIM

Summer Wind

Done being humble, I’m the nicest, y’all don’t know it yet
I’m militant, I’m with the soldiers, feel like Bobba Fett
You feel like you my competition, that’s a mighty stretch
Every line will break the speed of sound, like fighter jets
If you in the Coast, check in with us so we can issue clearance
OS the government in secret move like politicians
I move work on the streets, got a bengals strips
It’s still checks over stripes, yeah that’s what we like
I’m making music for myself and not for nobody else
That’s what you do when you on top and they below your belt
I see a lot that’s on a Drift and though they need my help
I gotta keep it pushing, I remember how that felt
I’m colder than 3 polar bears doing snow angels
Mac died, now I look at like with different angles
I don’t do strings attached, I know how things get tangled
I keep a happy wife, I don’t be out here acting single
I guess being faithful ain’t the coolest thing to do
I’m smart enough to know I got a lot a things to lose
And trust me, it will be November for you blink your eyes
I feel it’s time that everybody stop pressing snooze
We built from the ground up
Ain’t no go fund me accounts to help my sound bruh
When nobody would love me, I was there to make myself tough
Now everybody say they love me, but I know it’s not love
I had to cut family off, I learned that blood ain’t everything
I got brothers that’s here and we don’t share no parenting
I got a real one at home and she deserve a wedding ring
I got a dream to catch, so please don’t think I’m out here playing games

Done being humble, I’m the nicest, y’all don’t know it yet
I’m militant, I’m with the soldiers, feel like Bobba Fett
You feel like you my competition, that’s a mighty stretch
Every line will break the speed of sound, like fighter jets
If you in the Coast, check in with us so we can issue clearance
OS the government in secret move like politicians
I move work on the streets, got a bengals strips
It’s still checks over stripes, yeah that’s what we like
I’m making music for myself and not for nobody else
That’s what you do when you on top and they below your belt
I see a lot that’s on a Drift and though they need my help
I gotta keep it pushing, I remember how that felt
I’m colder than 3 polar bears doing snow angels
Mac died, now I look at like with different angles
I don’t do strings attached, I know how things get tangled
I keep a happy wife, I don’t be out here acting single
I guess being faithful ain’t the coolest thing to do
I’m smart enough to know I got a lot a things to lose
And trust me, it will be November for you blink your eyes
I feel it’s time that everybody stop pressing snooze
We built from the ground up
Ain’t no go fund me accounts to help my sound bruh
When nobody would love me, I was there to make myself tough
Now everybody say they love me, but I know it’s not love

I got a real one at home and she deserve a wedding ring
I got a dream to catch, so please don’t think I’m out here playing games

CEO

The company I keep is too clear for you to C
CEO
That’s how you pronounce my name please
Know the operation black
Like it’s call of duty 3
Put the coast on the map
Like an undiscovered beach
I work magic on a beat
Know how to get them up out seat
Know I don’t sound like so and so
Nobody even close
And I could show you everything
You still can’t fathom how I think
Gave them verses every time
They mad cause now there is a fee
I mean
Imagine being
Working when my friends are sleep
I done shed so many tears
All them times I had to bleed
Overcame a lot of fears
Lost people close to me
When you been through what I been through
You can’t rap this sh*t for free
This sh*t is all politics
Rappers run a lot of lip
You ain’t got it kid
better get a scholarship
I'm hotter than degrees that a doctor ain't acquire yet
Yes I own my masters
Contracts
I’m not sighing yet
Associate the laughter
With the people always envious
Know i’m not a bachelor
She the one that helped get me here
Give her loyalty
That shit rare
Gotta wife it quick
Got a lot to lose
You gotta know that I admire it
Back to basic
I got time on my hands
I’m feeling blue from all the franklins that been slipping out my hands
But it’s going towards the vision
Put your trust inside the plan
Go to juggle all the work
You gotta spend your time with fam
Its always working while I sleep
I’m dreaming how to build the brand
The sand is slipping out my hand
The man is not a Peter Pan
When the cloud is in the air
I rap like I won’t ever land
I do this sh*t without a care
But yet I’m global with the fans
I could never understand
They rather go work for the man
They gone talk behind your back
Then they try to shake your hand
Then you finally get to blow
Then they say that they your friend
Man it’s lonely on this road
You got to use the pain within
Yeah
Huh
You gotta use that pain within
Everybody blow you off
Put your back against the wind
Know you going to take some L’s
I know they seem to never end
In the end you will prevail
In the end you going to win

In the end you going to win
In the end you going to win
Everybody blow you off
You put your back against the wind

Too Late

Why you want to show me all this love when it’s too late
You know I ain’t never sweet
I ain’t tryna get a tooth ache
I don’t need you any way
that’s some sh*t we know you say
Yeah
Yeah you love to play games
Like we getting on 2K
But
If somebody give your problems
Then i’m bussing at his toupee

Life is like a movie
Told them I’m coming
So you better have a due date
Now they got to watch me like they put me on a blue-ray
I been blacking out like la familia going to lose me
I been blacking out like I was rapping on a roofy
I been blacking out like black face on a Sussie
Better throw the towel
Or take the other route and sue me
Keep the circle tight
No I can’t interact with goofies
I been in a 23
I been zone
I got the Fanta with a 3 piece
The Fries & a roll
I’m surveying while I eat
Can’t have my back to the door
Gotta catch them when they coming
I can’t be the one to go
Can’t leave my people all alone
I gotta keep my heart on froze
If you ever do me wrong
Then you about to see it snow
Got the gift in the bag I’m up north with the pole
I’m not going out sad
And I put that on my soul

Why you want to show me all this love when it’s too late
You know I ain’t never sweet
I ain’t tryna get a tooth ache
I don’t need you any way
that’s some sh*t we know you say
Yeah
Why you want to show me all this love when it’s too late
You know I ain’t never sweet
I ain’t tryna get a tooth ache
I don’t need you any way
that’s some sh*t we know you say
Yeah
Yeah you love to play games
Like we getting on 2K
But
If somebody give your problems
Then i’m bussing at his

You

Nobody on my mind
Yeah
Theres nobody on my mind
Yeah
There’s nobody on my mind
Yeah
I spend all my time with you
Nobody on my mind but you
You send me that you coming through
I don’t need to tell you what we going to do
You just need somebody who going to listen
I just need somebody that don’t do no tripping
I can take that broken heart and I can fix it
I’m just trying to show you something different

I need you right by me when I wake up
You angel don’t you hide that face makeup
I can’t explain it but you cannot say this ain’t love
I’m trying to cut and baby I don’t need no taper
I fantasize all the time when I sleep
Life don’t feel real when you woman of my dreams
I been out here in field
And I hate it when I leave
Give you time
And a smile on your face I gotta see
I know all of this different
Gotta a couple children
Got a thing we building
Tryna make a million
We ain’t got a ceiling
Cause a n***a brilliant
Don’t you say you feel me
Ya’ll don’t even know the real me
Know they want to kill me
Gotta do them filthy
Know this shit the wave I put the mic inside a silky
I been in a mood
Everybody trying to milk me
Yeah
Everybody trying to milk me

I spend all my time with you
Nobody on my mind but you
You send me that you coming through
I don’t need to tell you what we going to do
You just need somebody who going to listen

I can take that broken heart and I can fix it
I’m just trying to show you something different

Night Shift

N****s so concerned what I do on night shifts
I ain’t writing now a days
Sh*t is getting freighting
I don’t have to keep a shooter
You know that I snipe quick
Bet that bullet hit your dome
You thought it was lightning
I don’t care about who fly
I know I’m the pilot
If you talking about investments you know ima buy in
Uh
Smoking hybrid
Heard they trying to siphon
I done gave them all the answers yet the question my pen
Huh
I can’t lie I had this sh*t planned out
I mean you thought that I would sink when that sh*t went south
I mean you gave me all the tools
Now I feel good now
I mean you showed me all this love now it doesn’t amount
I mean
Sh*t don’t really add up
Running laps around rings that be spinning around Saturn
This is not your ting
This is sh*t that you imagine
Yeah it’s tripple C’s
Crazy how I’m running fashion
Yeah
N****s know that they ain’t like this
That’s copy paste flows
They not even in the right click
Y’all should be concerned on what I’m doing on my night shift
I go a little harder when they praying that I might slip
And I don’t need a shooter
On my stick I got a tight grip
That 45 ACP will get you right quick
Quarantine spitting
F****d around and got the mic sick

I fight my own battles
Go the distance for my family
Gotta raise my kids
Be the dad that they going to need
Cause I ain’t really have a father figure in my later years
I told myself to get the bag before I shed a tear
This is why I call myself the young OG
Feel like god make rap just for n****s like me
I don’t know why boyfriends always want to fight me
I don’t know why girlfriends always want the piping
I gotta keep it PG
Writing in my mind
Lay a verse down in 3D
Play it through your stereo it feel like watching TV
See me out in public
All a sudden turn to Stevie
Walking on these keys
This is ebony and ivory
Creating fake beef
We ain’t never had a rivalry
Gotta move in silence cause I know they got their eye on me
Ops tryna click up
They just tryna spy on me
Huh
You going be pissed when they tell you how I’m living
Yeah the boy leveled up now I’m seeing bigger digits
Yeah
Karma keeps spinning
Uh
Ima keep winning
Yeah
You going take L’s
Better know that I’m grinning
Uh
I been on a mission
Yeah
This a premonition
Yeah
Tryna tell you n****s my
Penmanship is different
Yeah
All caps been over the stove
You get monopoly’d
I’ll collect it when I go
Nobody stoping me
Check my heart that s**t is froze
You gotta climb the rose
If you want to get the thrown
You gotta stand for something if you want to keep your soul
You gotta be your own
You don’t want to fit the mold
You gotta stand 10 toes
No matter how it goes
You gotta keep your word to the grave
And that’s code
You got to stay loyal to your people
Never fold
All caps like an urgent message to you h**s
HAH

Fine Wine

Keep up at your pace
Keep up at your pace
Keep up at your pace
Keep up at your pace
Keep up at your pace put it in the plan
Leave it up to fate
It ain’t in your hand
Gotta keep sane
Put it in the plan
Tryna keep my pace but I sleep again
If it’s not a race
Where we finish then
Leave it up to fate
It ain’t in your hand
Gotta keep sane
Put it in the plan
Tryna keep my pace but I sleep again
If it’s not a race
Where we finish then
If it’s not a race
Where we finish
My time different
Fine wine sipping
I’m on your curves
Drifting
Hit a curb
I’m tripping
Wet spot
Swerve slipping
I don’t give up love
For this sh*t
I’m driven
Yeah
I been trying to surf that wave you on
Know you want to drive the boat
You can’t so you don’t
Why you playing hard to get
Girl you ain’t that tough
Love drunk
Think we both need to sober up
But
I don’t want to wait all day
I’m running out of things to say
I ain’t really in to taking breaks
That’ll get my heart broke
Then it’s tears down your face
I sent a paragraph
Then you hit me with a K
I don’t like those mind games
They give me a headache
I’m suppose to give you head
But instead it’s migraines
You my sunshine
Got a couple clouds in the way
Leave it up to fate
It ain’t in your hand
Gotta keep sane
Put it in the plan
Tryna keep my pace but I sleep again
If it’s not a race
Where we finish then
Leave it up to fate
It ain’t in your hand
Gotta keep sane
Put it in the plan
Tryna keep my pace but I sleep again
If it’s not a race
Where we finish then
Trapped up in your head and your thoughts win lately
Caution to the wind but your glock off safety
Shootin for the moon but it haunts you lately
Imma hold you close don’t talk my baby
Just act fast keep the balance when u sip slow
You in the mud I can I see the way you tip toe
Can’t kick the cup cause u gotta stay on ten toes
I’m working graveyard just to help u shift though
I’m Dead Sea give u gems and help your skin glow
Swirl yo hips and hypnotize me
Steal my soul and gentrify me
This ain’t life i’m just surviving
Where you stand girl that’s besides me
I’ll move at ur pace and leave it in your hands

Leave it up to fate
It ain’t in your hand
Gotta keep sane
Put it in the plan
Tryna keep my pace but I sleep again
If it’s not a race
Where we finish then
Leave it up to fate
It ain’t in your hand
Gotta keep sane
Put it in the plan
Tryna keep my pace but I sleep again
If it’s not a race
Where we finish then

007

Yeah
This s**t is too easy man
Yeah
Huh
Check

I been had juice but I’m far from minute made
I hear they going to end me but that’s never been the case
I don’t have no issues unless we talking magazines
Flip to page 14 you see I’m on my way
God put me in positions to make a change
Deconstruct bridges they love to do that flames
Playing pyro know I’ll never see you the same
If you cross the line and I catch you inside my lane
It gets Lionel Messi
Ain’t no man that can check me
Know my toe to toe deadly
It’s only head shots when I Snipe no Wessly
I been in my bag know they Glad like Hefty
All them nights of pressing clothes and moving them through Etsy
We the pioneers nothing drove us but our fears
They content with having ceilings if it got a chandelier
Almost drove us crazy we was watching through years
Rappers with no talent blowing up and we still here
Made a promise to my brothers and they heard me loud and clear
I told them we going to make it we just gotta grind them gears
And fuck whoever on cuz I know our time is near
This for all them nights of disbelief and holding back them tears n***a

Huh
Yeah
Said we holding back them tears n***a
I just got to grind the gears n***a
Yeah

It’s la familia until they put the nails in
I been on my Drift like I just hit a tail spin
Half of me is crazy like I got Melvin
Other half is sane enough to let these boys live
I gotta feed my family don’t play with my dinero
Rappers reaching out to me they feel like I’m they hero
Laugh about while I put tzatziki on the gyro
I feel like number 7 if it start with double 00
I’m the secret agent they was warming y’all about
Silence on the barrel metaphoric to my mouth
Still effective even though they don’t hear me out
I don’t die my hair in hopes it’ll get clout
I don’t buy designer when I can’t even afford it
I don’t post with foreigns when I’m whipping Ford focus
I don’t lose focus I don’t fumble any bags
Rappers getting desperate for the clout that shit sad
I know why they mad
I’m exceeding in all my classes
Spit acid from off tablet
I body bag em and tag em
I’m action while you imagine
This rapper from the Corn Coast
Is so close he can damn near tap it
Went from laughing now they tapped in

Huh
Keep that running bro
I swear this s**t is too easy
I can go all day with it
Yeah
Took some L’s but I bounced back
What you expect
I put us on the map
If you hating
Please don’t give me dap
Uh
HAKIM all caps
I’m from the middle of the map
Yeah
Got the ball I never get sacked

The Blues

Whoever thought that my Ford Explorer would get me here
Go through hell as long as I keep the vision clear
I ain’t never had to keep up with the Jetsons
Bought a space ship
Nothing like your first Lexus
I ain’t seen nobody with a drive like mine
Even when the gas gone
I could never slip behind
I read all the signs
I can always feel a switch
I done seen my friends die
Same ones still live
Know they pray for my demise
So they tryna starve my kids
I’ll never let that slide
They get a 3 star dish
Well wishes to the opps
When I drop
Make them sick
You can let them bodies rot
Add a tally to the list
Gotta learn to take your pain and put a Cham in front
Gotta walk a mile so you got some energy to run
Gotta face your problems cause they not going to fit inside a blunt
Know you feeling hollow
Grab a magazine and fill it up
Mean mug
Test somebody if they putting up a front
Any altercation you going to pull out and let it dump
Another broken cycle got our people in a slump
You will never solve those issues with that hatred in your blood
Yeah

Everyday is something new
Only fear God
Tell me what I really gotta lose
Set backs coming by the two’s
I ain’t cry about it
I know it was written in the rules
Yeah
It’s never certain
This the life that many choose
But for me its do or die
And you can bet I’m not going to lose
Look in my eyes
I guarantee you feel the blues
Look in my eyes

What it’s like to be a black man
It’s me against the world
Got me backed in
So much pressure tear drops turn to VVS
But i’d be damned if I ever let them see me stressed
Everyday maneuver after every setback
Blessed to have some options
Never had to sell crack
But every man is born into a different struggle though
Still gotta figure out on how you going to crack the code
Yeah

Let that ride…

Let me talk to em …

I know why the chicken crossed the road
It had the get the fuck up out that hut
It knew it was more to life than just that

Don’t get lost in life and forget you’re the pilot
You go wherever you want to go
You decide that
Nobody Else
Real life

Air Plane Mode

These are beats I’m melting into
When it’s time to vent I put it all on instrumental
Now I’m making waves
It all started with a ripple
The flow is newborn like it’s back up on the nipple
I told you little n****s that this game is all mine
No percentage for y’all
Y’all don’t get nada out of me
That’s zilch
Yeah zero
I do this in my sleep
In the booth I got a pillow
And if I catch a nightmare
Gets scary when I riddle
I do this s**t y’all dream of
It’s dead beats inside the studio like rappers that don’t take care they kids
I took the bar that they set for me and made me a bridge
They threw dirt on my name and I gave it a rinse
And now I’m brand new ain’t I
I hear it all the time
Like it’s a bad thing
I guess they never heard evolving
Went through the hoops like a Spalding
I let pour like a faucet
No I can’t hear when you calling
Cause I’m in airplane mode
My lingo
Top totem pole
I’m floating
But I’m sober though
I’m in a coma bro
Ink a line that gets you overdosed
Don’t care about so & so
Cause they don’t add up to the drifter
I’m different
Snap a finger
Universes going missing
I got a dark mind
I’ll have you twisted off a listen
I’m never hard to find
I’m with the shadows and we kick it
It’s frigid
The thermostat broke and I can’t fix it
Tears turn to ice cubes and that’s perfect when you sipping

Weight of the world is
All on my shoulders
I hope this distance
Will pull us much closer
I try to fix it
Don’t want it over
Please won’t you listen
My heart get colder
Weight of the world is
All on my shoulders
I hope this distance
Will pull us much closer
I try to fix it
Don’t want it over
Please won’t you listen
My heart get colder
Colder

This room is getting colder by the second
If hell is hot
Is it cold up in heaven
Maybe not
And maybe I’m just tripping
I like to talk about the things we never mention
I feel division
Between us
Scared to lose you
This the first time I seen love
This love is s**t that people dream of
If you the one
Why you think I need another one
You been
Running through my mind all day
We just gotta fix these issues
I don’t want to have to miss you
All that s**t that we done been through
Yeah
We can’t this back
I hope this train of thought will get us back
on track
I know they want to see us derail
But we going to prevail
You don’t need no further details

Weight of the world is
All on my shoulders
I hope this distance
Will pull us much closer
I try to fix it
Don’t want it over
Please won’t you listen
My heart get colder
Weight of the world is
All on my shoulders
I hope this distance
Will pull us much closer
I try to fix it
Don’t want it over
Please won’t you listen
My heart get colder
Colder

Checking In

I got a feeling that you living life unhappy Chasing empty carcasses
You’re unfulfilled because they’re not me
Walking without no aim
I hope you feeling the pain I was bearing
When you was breaking my heart
I was still caring you were all I had
In Thomasville you thousand miles away
You falling out of love with what’s his name
I thought I’ll take his place but here we are
Four years later don’t know your whereabouts
You could of been the one
Until you played me out
Now let me tell you how that felt
I never spent so many nights alone
I use to stay up late in hopes you hit my phone My mind would roam to darkest places Knowing that my name was fading
Told your ass to just be patient
Guess I wasn’t worth the waiting
But I figured out how strong I am without you
I fell in love with my soul mate
I’m glad it’s not you
I realized that you were only there to teach a lesson
And I aced the test with flying colors
Even found direction
Now I know myself as El Morado
Every piece I write Picasso-esk
I bottled stress, and made the best
Of what you left
I’m never short of breath
When getting feelings off my chest
I pray you never sleep at night
From all those days I couldn’t rest
I remember all them nights of dozing off
While you were up and studying
You ask a question while I’m fast asleep
Reply with mumbling
You laugh about it
Tell me go to bed and then I Drift
I don’t miss the times
But I must admit I reminisce
Yeah, I am not venting
I’m simply checking in
You ain’t listen that’s why we found the end
I found love and we brought children in
This will be the nail into the casket
That you lay up in

I’m checking in
I’m checking in
Yeah
I’m checking in
Yeah

This verse I’m dedicating
To the ones that celebrated
The success while you were here
And now you’re gone you almost made it
I know when the seasons change
It happens when you’re a Winter
Predict they fall before they leave
And you become a memory
I cannot share my energy
And to the ones I cut
I know you sit and ask yourself
And wonder if HAKIM remember me
Yes I do, I don’t forget
And I will a hold a grudge
No matter if it makes me sick
People try to spring back in my life
Like I am Jesus with forgiveness
Once you cross me it was nice to know you
Then I say good riddance
I know that my heart is cold
But y’all to blame
You turned me frigid
You should be on top with us
But foolish pride won’t let listen
I find so funny how I finesse
Life is tracked out
They know I do it the best
Don’t gotta cue me in
I know these snakes the best
I feel the ill intent and jealousy from a stretch
I work around the clock
I cannot speak for the rest
I’m not the early bird
I watch you sleep in the nest
Can’t bring them back alive
But I know I’m pressing they chest
You’ll get the ball from me
Just wait under the net
I got them all by a stretch
Go figure they often reaching
I been a different breed
The reason behind the leaching
I broke sequence I could never be a slave
I know if I ever take a loss
You all will throw parades
I’m an addict for that reason
I can’t let them take my place
Executing with the grace
Only keep up with my pace
I don’t like to share my space with half asses
I’m a one of one, I made my wave
Don’t follow masses
Sincerely, F**k y’all!
Yeah that’s really how I feel
Swearing is my last resort
So you know that sh*t is real
This is signed and sealed
Mr. Purple when it gets delivered
Wood have split the chips with ya
But you know that gets you splinters, Yeah

Checking in
Yeah
I’m checking in
Yeah
I’m checking in
Yeah

Eddie Key
I know you watching wherever you at
Would do it all to have you back
Whatever in fact
I mean I would trade the raps
Give all of my stacks
If that’s mean you can return
And we could sit laugh
nd talk about the time that past
And everything I witnessed
We couldve spent more time together
Hope you shed forgiveness
I wish you could be back
So you can finally meet my children
It took your death
For me to change my life and start to live it
You often visit me when I’m asleep
I keep your wristband by nightstand
It probably helps me sleep
I’m never good with grief
I don’t cope with no bottle or no smoke
I became a workaholic
And that’s how I stay afloat
I can’t forgive myself
For being absent at the funeral
That’s regret I gotta live with
And I’m sorry bro
Ima keep this short
I’m checking in
I pray for an after life
So I can see your face again

Yeah
Rest in peace bro
We gonna get it done bro
I promise
Yeah

To God

I swear to god I was built for this s**t
I started this the same time I had scholarships on the table for me
I do this s**t for my n****s that set the table for me
I know my n****s gotta eat so now I’m hunting for them
I knew the sun was coming right after this thunderstorm
I knew this s**t happen
Ain’t nobody want it more
I had to pause the rap
And then I went and copped a store
Don’t have turn my back
I know I’m running up the score
Quadruple double and I did it in my flu game
Step inside the room
Guarantee you feel mood change
Them boys soft as titties and they not rapper 2 Chainz
They Russian just to keep up
I think they from Ukraine
I swear I’m getting closer god
My life not a facade
I bet you thought I wouldn’t rise above the rubble
I drew the plays and put all of my n****s in a huddle
We missed some calculations but we made it through struggle
19 hardest summer that I been through
House cuts calling and I know I got this rent due
A n***a got depressed
All the stress on my mental
I started second guessing every vision that I penciled out
But you know who held me down
She told me keep going cuz they know you got the crown
And heavy is the head
You ain’t came this far drown
So keep on swimming I’ll never let you hit the ground HAKIM
It’s papi you know you the mommy
Let you all inside my brain
I turn you to zombie
If the whip fall apart I know you still riding
If I’m lost
You go navigate and come and find me
Yeah
You really stuck it out
Is this what love about
I can see why n****s overdose and die
This shit is so addictive and you always get me high
And if I cannot have I don’t want to live this life
I withdrawal
I’m in awe
I lose part of me
I fear none
And no one
Will put fright in me
Except G-O-D know he watch over me
I live a honest life
Rap about it openly
I line them all up
What I do
Shooting spree
You know it’s double c’s
Like the Black & the Caspian
Black mob drifting I might have to grab the mask again
My fashion sense wild
Put your mind inside the labirynth
It’s amazing what I got done
See the pressure was applied I did not run
See that pressure I applied
You realize you can’t stop him
F**k is really up with all this family s**t
I’d be damned to build a bridge that all these motherf*****s burned
Been quite for a minute it’s my motherf*****g turn
If I don’t tell my side I know they never going to learn
I rather speak the truth and f**k the feelings im’a hurt
I’m not the one to turn your back to
I would hate to be the person that I had to cut off
Cause once I shut you off
All emotions that involved
And the memories
I empty everything that’s in the vault
Now you dead
Ain’t nobody had a funeral at all
White roses
I rapped about it way before the fall
I put my feelings down and send them off to god
Cause once I get them out of me I leave it up to y’all

Magnificent

Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side when the bridges burn
Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side when the bridges burn

Cold hearted if you hate me then it’s your fault
Man of the house
Everybody want to see my roof gone
I could never let that happen
I play it smart
Me & Don often laugh about how we about to kill everybody off
Premeditated verses
About time I drop the hearse off
Sweet potato gnocchi
Minnesota wild rice in the sky loft
I made myself my boss
I could never be employee
I gotta keep the lights on
You ain’t never seen it done before me
Young but I’m still the OG
Earned that from everything I been through
I don’t even speak to my parents
These times ain’t so simple
Where do I go for guidance
Tell me who do I vent to
My dad ended up all alone
Ain’t nobody to pass the business
Told my mom don’t hit my phone
I can’t fix these issues
Court transcripts said it all
Threw it all away over that dude
Y’all paint it like I’m crazy one
Y’all know I’m the golden child
Crazy how things ended up
This blood can’t be reconciled
Tears dry on their own now
Meditate to some Winehouse
I drift when the sun down
Y’all know y’all can’t come around
Y’all know I hold grudges
Till I’m 6 feet buried in the underground
Y’all know about the business I opened
Y’all she be proud
I gave y’all first grandkids
Y’all know I had life figured out
I was the one that took a different route
Like cutting waves
Went against the grain
In my household
That was not allowed
Never been the one to throw the towel
I stand on my 2 feet
Always been the one to go against the crowd
Shoot my shot when I’m getting fouled
Dipped out seen it going south
Showed love in the wrong times
Got hate cause I made it out
Y’all showed me family don’t mean nothing
It’s a word now
Y’all use that family s**t for excuse but it don’t amount

Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side when the bridges burn
Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side
Trips down S 14th got you by my side
It don’t matter where I’m going
You just want to come and ride
I know if I do a crime
You’ll try and do my time
You put me first
Cause you rather see me shine
I’m going to put a ring on it
You forever mine
I know you scared
I see it in yours eyes
The miscarriage really set me back
I ain’t going to lie
I ain’t even speak much on it
Put it in the grind
Spark it up
I let it all float away
I get scared too
But I gotta find a way
3rd one on the way so now we gotta find a name
I want Lusciano but you love to hate
But you love to hate
It’s crazy how it all falls apart just to come together
All that s**t that that ain’t work out
It was for better
The rain washed dead weight out
Gotta thank the weather
It was rainy days
Rainy days
No umbrella
It’s a different kind of pain watching everybody eat when you know you better
Now I’m getting to the cheese
I need every crumb
Give me all the feta
Mozzarella
All them tears that we drop together
I can’t see us not together
This the s**t that’s for forever
Shag carpet
With the rose petals
Back in 16
You were mine on Valentines
I was fresh up out my parents crib
F Street was the best of times
I ain’t even have a dining table
We was on the floor with the strips and fries
You was still in highschool
I was in school doing hair designs
After school I would rush over to the Hilton
For the night shift
Room service
On my dead time
I would fade the cooks
If they need a trim
Ask Manziel
Ask AK
They can tell you how I got it in
Black trash bag on the floor
Just the catch the hair falling off they head
If Donna found out about all that
My ass getting fired quick
Looking back on the grind I put in
That shit’s inspiring
I know when Eddie checking up on me
He can’t do nothing but admire it
Got the news when you died
I was back in Thomasville with the hooping shit
Weeks before that
I was going through a tough spot and put down the pen
So fast forward when I get the news that you laid cold in your dorm bed
Something clicked
Picked up the pen
And my life never been the same since
I guess everything got a reason
Cause when you died
I learned to live
No man deserves this life more than I do
So obsessed
I create it all with my eyes closed
Being black
Got to do it all on a tight rope
Same rope that they rather see around my throat
Vision clear
I ain’t getting fooled
See through the smoke
New levels
Bring new devils
And they want your soul
Stay pure
Stay level headed
Hold on to hope
Navigate through the matrix
Gotta crack the code
Magnificent
