hello again
rather good mornin
shit ya right on time to catch me yawnin
hows that for a double entendre?
i'm tired of this bullshit game niggas is launderin
could claim i'm a better choice
but how played is that?
(nah mean) dont every voice?
i'm too accosumed to that rational
to suffer you them bullshit niggas is passin my du
(look)
this aint that maybach music
too laidback and the truth is
i was raised off the avenue
both parents at home
didnt come out much
cept for a dutch
or some thang i was mackin to
church-boy by design
ya see the father is preacher
dats possibly why i'm ether wit da mind
and i aint too much a rapper
more an actor on his grind
who's quite decent
when speakin that street venacular
while keepin time
but anyway,
by this point in life ya boy is bout ready to break
(pardon the pun)
you know just call this shit a night
toss the towel in
diversify my funds, chapelle and shoalin
(eh)
i mean,
shit why pretend
aint really been the same
since that dame met my closest friend
sorry twin
i know i covered that before
but thought i'd say the shit again
before i open up this exit door
uh
[chorus]
farewell to the game
know i loved that ass first
but alot of things changed
the feelin aint the same
and thats so cliche
but - im sure you understand
i'm positive we'll still keep in touch
possibly not as much
and probably not
wit all this damn pain
cuz by this point
feel inside like i'm dying of thirst
but recognize that i loved you first
loved you first
(--)
speaking of
to my recent love?
shouldn't really have to wonder who i'm thinkin of
(well) i understand it if you do
but you should notice the sample i've chosen
and that i'm speakin to you
it could be simple
but that aint my style
i'm an impatient child
still growing and that may take awhile
(-) i only wanted to see you laughin
wasnt no weekend thang
thats just the way it happened
i wont pretend as if we'll be the way we was
nor will i act as if this gift can compensate for my lack of faith,
women issues, or my backward pace
but if it werent for your light
i couldnt crack this safe
so since you often pushed me to
this whole body of work is dedicated to you
for the moutains and the sea
for the canvas
for the brush
for the day that we finally break free
[chorus]
farewell to the game
loved that ass first
but at times things change
the feelin aint the same
and thats so cliche
but - i hope you understand
positive we'll still keep in touch
possibly not as much
and for damn sure
witout this pain
cuz by this point
i imagine that you dying of thirst
but please know that i loved you first
loved you first

yeah
for all intents and purpose
i'll be ya midnight guide
i'll be the moon's surface
i'll be the siren on the city block
a vacant gun shot
a familar notice
a welcome home from a days vacation
you in the hood again baby
you gots death waitin
you smell that blunt smoke concentratin?
the loss of young ideals
the fear of elder patrons?
an empty belly and the strain of patience?
the lengths we go to maintain witout basin?
the few who care and many more complacent?
and those like me who see
it's silly tryna blame them?
shit
aint nothin new to me
i've faced a barrel point blank
i know it personally
(yeah)
i bet it hurts to hear it
but you can feel it baby girl
dont ask whats irkin me
but anyways back to you baby
I hope you feelin alright, im here for you lady
I just get caught up in the moment dig me?
don’t let my thoughts trouble you lil lady
cuz on a road so cold
you gotta have a hand you can hold through that stroll
and what you think im here for?
and so are you baby, therefore..
[chorus]
i only wanna make it back to you
i'm only tryna make sweet love to you
i only wanna be with you
So where do we begin?
I’ll be your confidant, I’ll be your closest friend
Don’t worry bout whatever’s coming after those baby
Lets make this work
Find out what happens then
Now I don’t mean to be rude
Im just tryna see you
Airing out them tattoos
Or in the middle of the beach
Miles away from these streets
Screaming out matthew
Either that or sah ril
Andre patrone
Whatever, its how you feel
Just let me know that you will
Or what you wont and you pick baby girl its your thrill
Its yo world for real
Im so serious
Sit back and chill
Just think about what you desire
Take it one step higher
And ima show you how it feel
cuz on a road so cold
you gotta have a hand you can hold through that stroll
and what you think im here for?
Or rather who baby, either or..
[chorus]
Take ya shoes off
Let yo hair down
Baby we here now
Aint nothing to fear now
Don’t go nowhere now
Just let it be
Don’t even have to move
Just leave it all to me
Put it all on me
Let it fall on me
Whatever crosses yo mind
Girl you can call on me
I’ll be yo stress releaver
Be yo peace of mind
I’ll give you what you need
I aint got nothing but time
I aint sayin this to play you or fuck wit your mind
I’m just trying to say you mine
At least in my mind
Call it a fantasy
I call it next in line
Shit its only a matter of time
Before..

Brother’s keeper
Peep the straight line I keep, they keep up
Decline the recline, sit up turn up the speaker
It’s the
B etter A sk S omebody H ow I R ock
Nigga
These ties don’t lie
I’m twice the man ya life demands
I bet youd hear it if I never spoke it
Know it though I never told it
Maybe cuz that’s what truth do
I am the one because I spit that hot number 2
Between my O’s and R’s
I’m on my P’s and Q’s
--
[cain]
L word certified
I eat pussy like a lesbian
A lot of you rappers are lookin thespian
And don’t get on bash and sah ril because they act
We something like pitchers throwing out and away from baseball bats
All balls
We hit the stage, its all applause
When we leave it’s a funeral home
Black bags and coroners
Killing em
Yall could eat the scraps now
Condors
Tailor made for tight spots
We fit perfectly
Contour

[sah]
I'm basquiat of dat body rock
Defyin standards
Note, if nothing, how i provide the canvas

Could give a fuck bout how the rest recieve it
See im more concerned that you should witness these walls turned into exit options
(thats to whomever heart could hear me knockin)
and im "that nigga" to alotta these whack niggas like randy watson
rather i'm "this nigga"...as in 'you need to watch him'
yeah- and we just dat freshhhh

yeah
one time for the poor
and those of us who know death before we reach 24
now you are not another candle in streets

see this is liquor for my niggas long gone
if you have some ya self, gon head and tip it to the - floor
(-) i promise i not gon keep you
just had some shit on my mind
i'll keep it sweet du
(listen)
dearest brother of mine
knee deep i this struggle and grind
take a walk wit me
i know
i know ya brothers is dyin
i dont nobody give a fuck if you cryin
have a talk wit me
see you are far from alone
and be it perfect or not baby this is our home
but we aint gotta stay here forever
dats my word
we gon soon know better
please believe that
here's a hand my nigga i know you need that
they say we lost all hope
i dont believe dat
cant believe that
you see these kids nigga?
thats all the hope we need
dats what it is my nigga
we aint that far off track
this shit is nothin
we gon get right back
now
black woman i love
know this- you can give me a hug i aint gon bite you
but when i dont love myself i tend to spite you
and this is no excuse all tho its quite true
you shouldn't settle for less
but apart we face nothing but death
thats real
so i will commend you for what youve always done
you stand strong even when i run
you hold on even if i leave
continue on when i give up faith
and i thank God
for you are his - grace
and i really need you know this
because if you dont - then we are hopeless
just dont deny us your smile
thats all we need to get beyond this mile
and when we come together
dats my word- no storm we cannot wheather
we've done it throughout time
by nature we both shine
now lets we shine together
i bet we find forever
lets call it black child and teach them they're untethered
teach ya daughter she's nothin if not clever
teach ya son he was born tougher than leather
and i dont mean to preach
but i think its a safe bet you sick tired a these streets
and probably tired of these niggas who false teach
and tell you to blow it fast while you struggle to eat
what kinda logic is that?
you tell me
maybe im off track
we aint gotta stay here my nigga
the promised land is over there my nigga

get up
hey. we gotta get outta here
cuz if they knew i was making love to you
they'd kill me
i know
it really dont make much sense
but when does love ever?
baby
i kinda need to hear that you feel me
[chorus]
always feels like im losin my step
every other second gotta catch my breath
judge no man
habor no hate
make enough money so my rent shit straight
build me this house
play these cards
be a strong man when dem times get hard
love my woman and serve my God
honor my father's name
i know
i aint never been that good
but it really that wrong
if i just wanna sing my song and rep this hood?
im sayin
maybe im just that lost
or maybe i stay
lookin for a price to pay not knowin the cost?
always feels like im runnin outta steps
every other second gotta catch my breath
judge no man
habor no hate
make enough money so these bills get paid
build me this house
play me these cards
be an open sholder case somebody get scared
love my woman and serve my God
honor my father's name
[nakia]
So I pray
Cuz I know there’s something greater
I try to remind myself and everybody else that we’re the creators
of our love story
And maybe people think I got it all together
Because I practice the best of me on a higher level
And im so far away
But what the masses agree on I don’t wanna be on
And their pain tends to feed on
I’m choosing love
But what the don’t see
Is that sometimes i feels like im losing my step
Every other second tryna catch my breath
My sister sends me money to buy groceries
Said to its hard to believe when you did not eat
And sometimes im scared sometimes I cry
Its hard to let go and I don’t know why
So I love myself
And serve my God
Honor the sense of my name
And be brave and keep on loving
Cuz in these times, love is unlawful
And people wanna hear me singing songs like
Aint it bad/really sad/feelin mad/frowny face
I’m just saying
Why is it easy to conjure up misery?
But I’ll be the outcast. I’ll be the rebel
Lock me up and throw away the key
Cuz I’m gonna be the light, despite
[When It] feels like im losing my step
Every other second gotta catch my breath
See I have the perfect life to practice getting better
Cant appreciate the sun if I don’t know rainy weather
And sometimes im scared
Sometimes I cry
Its hard to let go and I don’t know why
So I love myself and serve my God
Honor my father’s name

~
Picture us sunsent on a distant beach
White linen on ya flesh, mouth on a peach
Beter yet trump tower, presidential suite
Roses at your feet, I know you feel the heat
Im so high off your aroma I can barely speak
Can you hear me blink?
I can feel ya thoughts
I can taste your hesitation, I wont get you lost
Just wanna get you off at any length or cost
Of course, I’ll kiss it first if you rather that
Then I’ma slather that
Rather I got it covered
I’ll pour the dressing on ya salad baby
Get you smothered
Every inch of you
Just let me enter you
I promise I’ll do anything you ask of me baby
Just put this mask on me
Slowly
Now for a minute lets pretend as if you barely know me
I’ll be your lover if you be my homie
Word up
Don’t need no weed
Don’t need no ecstasy
Don’t need no cocaine
I’m high off ecstasy
See when you’re next to me?
I lose all sense of restraint and want you sexually
I try to hide but I cant
Fuck it
If you don’t love me I’ma die here
Do me and let me lie here
Its ok
I know you’re hurtin baby, let me work them issues away
And I’ll make certain they go bye bye for stay
This aint for play play

You ever lose complete control of ya body while blood rushes from everywhere to your toes?
Oh its such a lush sensation
I’ll make it happen for you
Just lemme tatse your sweat
I wanna get you so wet
I bet
When this is over you’ll be so at peace
Between an ocean of them soakin sheets
Just crack it open lemme take a peak
I’ll play ya head physician
Just let me know when I should change position

H –how you get that illy ass sound?
On the real tho?
Couldn’t even tell ya

So accapella
Hello my ladies
Hello my love

Now back it up
Heard you had a man and he had that ass yawnin
Getcha some a this then, call me in the morning
Iller than I ever was

Yall are barely buzzed
Tell ya how it is:
They can tell ya how it was
I’d rather tell ya how its gon be from here on
No shit? Im the fuckin future
How much evidence you need?
I swear I need a huge amplifier just to turn it up higher
Say this aint ya shit then you’s a muthafuckin liar
But just in case you don’t get it I’m
Two parts Jimi Hendrix with a hit of lime
Yeah I know – I’m out my fuckin mind
Ya damn right
I’m on my dick van dyke, I trip all the time
No drugs needed
And nah, I’m not weeded
See I be on the bullshit that had Pac heated
Ya’ll call it real life but me I know better
See this the pre-game lames
Now where my name spella
[chorus]
Why wait? Call a nigga now
I deliver all day. Do you hear this sound?
More meat by the pound. Call me fudrucker
1-800 write my name in a muafucka
And those are not my words
So it must mean
Boogie on that bullshit baby, he really does things
I’ll let you fill your own blanks til we discuss things
Shortie
I aint no player I just crush on an everyday basis
Until we trade places
I aint tryna hear one word about the way I navigate
Through this hateful
Crooked ass world full of racists and self proclaimed angels
And when they try to change ya?
You tell em this the way that God made ya
And since when does God need help being God?
Yeah, that’s a doozie now aint it?
Sing the hook wit me so we’re all well acquainted like
[chorus]
