lyrics

Yeah
I wanna get this before my phone die
I gotta find a name for these records, yeah

Mental evaluation
In dire need of vacation
But I'm off to the races
My body is not a haven
To well wishes or patience
Agent of chaos
Roses in muddy water vases
Yet the flowers still in bloom
The proof is still infused
In these concrete melodic tunes
Although unenthused
And blue, abused and cynic
Riddled with monumental civil unrest
My blood bubbles thru heart troubles
I had a homie that once told me
He couldn't deal with my mood swings
Meanwhile I'm hanging by a shoe string
Not everybody gon' grace you with understanding
Sometimes all our moral standards
Get weighed by the obligations we're handed
I can't fault him if he came to conclusions
He disillusioned
And choose to move in head of the sense
That better suits him
I can't guarantee nothing but trying
If that's a buy in I know it's terrifying
To come in blind it's mystifying
Often misdefined myself
To narratives from people whos heritage
Is based in comparative, disparaging
Arrogance, failed marriages
Yet declarative to play therapist
And speak to me like I'm a heretic
It's so imperative to know yourself
Set time for your health
Regardless of no one else but you
And If they poof on the day you crash
It is what it is, things don't always last
So cherish that
Be more direct, uh
Come to collect, I need a check
For being one of the best
To ever rep up out the X
Back when Memo was elxit
Randy made the connect, I made my entrance
And Bathgate was where we stayed
That was my great escape way before 808's graced
Any beats that he made for me
Now we Harlem shake
Back when Buddhaflip was Tony Roc
These upstarts living large
Unsmart, but ain't require the heart
Him and Dante argued all the time
Them Mont Hall homies outta line
Shout out to Daniel and to Sav
Those were the best days of our lives
I noticed why
A bunch of genius minds
Backed by a brotherhood and a bond
Shout out my brother Bryant
I love you for your kindness and
That divine energy you be supplying
Though we ain't speak in a while
Hope you know you on my mind
Just had to find a solution
For I end up dying
And sometimes I catch a sign that things gone be alright
But don't pretended be
Transparencies what I need
Back when birds chirped tweet now they fleet
My dove like a piano key
The wingspan is incredible
Airport revenue
Hope that it's legible what I done
All the years I wrote, stayed broke and overcome
And on the nights I spilled over the pad
And no one cared
Yet I still knew
No one could ever touch the kid, holla
