The only way for you to make it
Is to give everything
Everything you are, everything you got
And if you hold back, even a little
You'll fall short
Tunnel vision, this fucking tunnel vision
Man I'm lucky that this tickets only good for one admission
I was told to run a muk until we won the mission
Always gunning for the one position
At 24 a nigga fell victim to a fuck addiction
I got a gift so I'll admit it was a tough decision
I relapse now and then, yea with enough assistance
But I always find a reason why it wasn't different
You keep debatin I'm busy chasing the stuff of fiction
They think they know what I'm cooking because they bugged the kitchen
All these niggaz is lying because they love division
All these bitches is lying because they love division
Look at Star looking like he up to something
Watch em gather round the pie
Such a real nigga had to teach me how to lie
Talk about a nigga getting hit with bad advice
I want it all
The fame and the fortune I saw
When I dreamed of arenas and stadiums tours
And once I get it I'll be gunning for more
Hey, tell em
I want it all
The fame and the fortune I saw
When I dreamed of arenas and stadiums tours
And once I get it I'll be gunning for more
Hey, tell em I...
What happened I can't see straight
Heard a voice say welcome to your dream state
But it don't seem fake
Said what you mean,
Last time we saw you, you were seventeen
Set to be all we conceived
What happened to that mean shit
The best y'all seen spit
Scholar never been on the dean's list
No rest, no reprieve, never run outta steam
Blitz every play because your cov-er-age clean
Said I been a lil busy tryna learn the craft and business
Matter fact when I wake up, my nigga it's right back to business
My job is the reception, so I know my facts-n-figures
What I do with a connection, only wish I had a witness
They said we just wanna know where all the passion at
I mean we understand don't really be no cash in that
You vocation there but, this yo natural habitat
You think you not goin wreak some havoc my nigga,
but we ain't having that at all
The fame and the fortune you make
What you see in your head, what you feel isn't fake
There's a legacy you're made to create
So keep your eyes on the ball
And don't worry if they can relate
There's an ever present seat up at the top
You can have if you're willing to take
Hey, tell em I want it all
Can't let em down I must eviscerate
Too much concern with trying to assimilate
Or the amount of streams that we could generate
No more talking now it's time for me to demonstrate
No trade, no degree
This is it for me
I just can't let it get to me
Maybe I been working for the wrong shit
Maybe I'm the one it's something wrong with
The Ballad
When did I start falling
And where is the ground
I don't like this dream no more somebody please let me out
Tell me I should give it up somebody please tell me how
With no one around to hear me shout
But I'm falling and I'm falling wit speed
I see something within reach it's small but what could it be
It's everything that I believe I want and need
Falling faster, tryna grab it
I forgot that I was sleep

I lost my mind I lost my mind
A long long time ago
Now I'm inclined to walk beside this long and winding road
Behind a door that's locked is where it feels the most like home
When I'm alone
I would have never learned to fly
If I had let it pull me in
Like yea we made it out alive
But we could never fully win
They say that misery's designed
Yea to forever want a friend
We making history or die
And hoping that we born again
Listen closely to the story of a boy abandoned
Dealing with the kinda shit that should destroy a man
So in the midst of his depression, he deployed a gambit
A way to try to trick his brain to just ignore the damage
What's eating gilbert grape or what's destroying hamlet
I don't belong to anyone at least that's how I feel
With no malice in my heart at least that's how I deal
I been training everyday to live without a meal
Ohh, I conduct a symphony of what amended me
What made me turn into the man that I was meant to be
I was deserted by people that once defended me
Now I know they got aspirations of ends for me
I no longer see you for what you pretend to be
So it's fuck you and I mean that shit offensively
One more hey stranger you don't remember me
And I'ma think coincidence is just a trend for me
I would have never learned to fly
If I had let it pull me in
Like yea we made it out alive
But we could never fully win
They say that misery's designed
Yea to forever want a friend
We making history or die
And hoping that we born again
I been having conversations with the inner me
And that nigga low-key sounding kind of villainy
I mean that nigga kind of crazy but his logic sound
Everyday I'm less motivated to calm him down
Just stay over there if you goin bring the drama round
Smooth talking like you niggaz is obama now
Your girl must got you thinking you a king and shit
But remember that depends upon the ring you in
Big fish in a little bowl
Wish wish then begin to grow
Big green wit a little soul
Big dreams wit a middle goal
Let's take the passion and the pride
And we'll put that shit aside
I still read and write, produce and market, distro and design
To think I'm in the wrong you either crazy, stupid blind
Or it's something you don't know cuz you don't see behind the lines
So if I ain't bout to make it you could take me now
Just give me time to spank a couple babies out
Conformity or coffins be our only options
So fuck it just as long as you and homie bopping, right
Knowing I could lose my life on any lonely stop at night
And I grew up in Trenton, I wake up and wanna fight
She wanna talk about it like that topic light
Never know because you're white
Close my door and lock it tight
I would have never learned to fly
If I had let it pull me in
Like yea we made it out alive
But we could never fully win
They say that misery's designed
Yea to forever want a friend
We making history or die
And hoping that we born again
I lost my mind, I lost my mind
A long, long time ago
Now I'm inclined to walk beside this long and winding road
Behind a door that's locked is where it feels the most like home
When I'm alone

Don't touch me I'm too hot and they begging me to drop and roll
But they'll never rock a crowd
And they'll never stop a show
Good sex. Good drugs.
What I get for what I expose
That's what's in the game we play
You either got it or you don't, hey
Can I be candid
Man god dammit
I don't mean to brag and shit, but
All this shit I'm dropping must be aggravating my aggregate
Trailblazer, hellrazor
And you might see me racing by
Might be on your screen, might be saving lives
Mean I'm such an Amazing guy
They tell me this luck
Like I wasn't in the crib while they was at the club
Oh you know the way but you don't have it huh?
Man ya story ain't adding up
Foot won't let that gas on up
Tell me that shit hazardous
Now all my sons got jackets cut
Wishing they was bad as us
God damn
Don't touch me I'm too hot and they begging me to drop and roll
But they'll never rock a crowd
And they'll never stop a show
Good sex, good drugs what I get for what I expose
That's what's in the game we play
You either got it or you don't, hey
Niggaz watching me like,
"I don't know what to do next. I was tryna see"
Want fame but love my privacy
And I'm just being honest
But what's the point of doing this shit for years if I ain't the hottest
I mean basically I'm jobless
If I can't generate deposits
So now I plan it out and I execute
Fuck hanging out, I'd rather bless the booth
Know the best to me won't be the best to you
It's a mess to the less astute
Want a showdown then I'm dressed to shoot
The sundance kid baby there I go
Words I said peeled off his roof
Quickdraw wit the lead I wrote
God damn
Don't touch me I'm too hot and they begging me to drop and roll
But they'll never rock a crowd
And they'll never stop a show
Good sex, good drugs what I get for what I expose
That's what's in the game we play
You either got it or you don't
Let the beat play

This gotta be the realest shit I ever said
Gotta make sure my roots are better fed
Ever since I put my name atop a letterhead
Been seeing situations like I read ahead
Half of me can sit and marvel at the majesty
The other half only fathoming the tragedy
Grabbing focus like I need it to survive
But even a heartbeat doesn't mean you're alive
Got a proposition to give up the greed or the pride
I told em give me a minute, took my leave in disguise
Drugs got they brains gone, running round wit chains on
It's the same song, we ended up in East Side High
But these niggaz couldn't pass one test
So I know what it's like to look around and be the last one left
Standing up on crazy joe
So they don't wanna play me on the radio
But I mean, look how hard it made me go?
Welcome to my soul
You get the grand tour
What's inside of me and what I stand for
No grandeur I just demand more
Because with everything I am, I know I am more
Welcome to my soul
You get the grand tour
What's inside of me and what I stand for
No grandeur I just demand more
Because with everything I am, I know I am more
I went looking for myself and found a stranger in my place
I don't know who sent him but they gave him my face
I see him try to mimic all the things that I say
I see him running after all the things that I chase
Standing in perpetual motion, I know perplexing
I took this shit too far for your perception to go
But stay with me baby I need you like a sexual potion
My addiction to marijuana only second to notes
They said "we drowning in the river that you sold us down
You made us dream, you gotta stay around to show us how"
They always tell me hold it down
I always say it ain't enough to go around
So, future first born, hope your listening
There is no better trait than initiative
Life is beautiful so try to find a shit to give
But never take ya eyes off what the mission is
Welcome to my soul
You get the grand tour
What's inside of me and what I stand for
No grandeur I just demand more
Because with everything I am, I know I am more
Welcome to my soul
You get the grand tour
What's inside of me and what I stand for
No grandeur I just demand more
Because with everything I am, I know I am more
Welcome to my soul
You get the grand tour
What's inside of me and what I stand for
No grandeur I just demand more
Because with everything I am, I know I am more
Welcome to my soul
You get the grand tour
What's inside of me and what I stand for
No grandeur I just demand more
Because with everything I am, I know I am more

East side Star
Just getting my feet wet like a seaside talk
She getting her cheeks wet like a seaside bar
And I'ma dig her out soon as the G ride park
I'm here to tantalize every woman and man alive
Believe that you can beat me, it's important to fantasize
All the beautiful music I vandalize
Adult I damage it. I'm multi talented
A one man dream team
I run stand breath mean
You're welcome in the jungle, but you just can't leave
I know you hating me because I'm what you just can't be
I mean, how do you beat what you can't touch can't see
You better tuck it
It's too dang-erous a subject
The shit that in public we don't discuss it
Give em gold bars and I drop nuggets
Just hoping that they fit in your budget
But I keep it to myself horde wealth and the bitches they love it
And they itching to touch it
Bro said "somethin got you goin at a hunnid"
And nigga I don't like it, I love it
It's time to get rugged

Aww yeah
Do you know what real is?
If you do, then you could feel this
Everybody dying to be immortalized
Instead of living they mortal lives
True fame's half life is only 4 to 5
Ignore the lies until the belief is fortified
If only I could store the vibe
In your mind and try to open up a door inside
We got a wave of an enormous size
So we just let it ride in wit the morning tide
You know they wanna deviate me
Cuz the game is such a bitch and she just don't appreciate me
Working fire, think I failed cuz I ain't pop immediately
Just bouncing off ideas I make em 'off the heezy' hate me
And 1 cuz I always drop it at the line
Ain't gassing, but I'm blowing like a pocket in a mine
We struck gold and if you think these fucks cold
Know in the shadow of the moon I be conjuring up snow
I'm an American God
Give me your attention
I need it to live cuz I need it to live
Glad you could join us to witness my ascension
I'll admit I'm probably not one that you would mention
But I been in the gym and I been benching
Now I could heal the blind, turning water to wine
Man I guess it's just divine intervention
I'm an American God
Give me your attention
I need it to live cuz I need it to live
Glad you could join us to witness my ascension
I'll admit I'm probably not one that you would mention
But I been in the gym and I been benching
Now I could heal the blind, turning water to wine
Man I guess it's just divine intervention
Skinny nigga
Smoking like a chimney
I dismantle every weapon formed against me
They like you slackin just a bit
Nah I just been quiet while I'm racking up the hits
Personification of the cracking of the whip
Talking like it's something at the bottom of the stairs cuz I'm backing up the shits
The lackies said that I was lacking subject matter
Like Alice ever understood the madness of the hatter
My rollie, Axel Foley had me acting fuckin Jagger
Bizarrely, they say they sorry as they plunge the fuckin dagger
Smiling in my face as I groan away
A pinching in my shoulder blade that just won't seem to go away
No love for those that hold grudge
Without declaring war. For those we don't budge
Kindle the flame, keep it simple and plain
Feel like I could drown a village with a thimble of rain
Better hope that I be gentle. Let it go, if I offend you
Cuz I got some shit assembled if you mention my name
I'm an American God
Give me your attention
I need it to live cuz I need it to live
Glad you could join us to witness my ascension
I'll admit I'm probably not one that you would mention
But I been in the gym and I been benching
Now I could heal the blind, turning water to wine
Man I guess it's just divine intervention
I'm an American God
Give me your attention
I need it to live cuz I need it to live
Glad you could join us to witness my ascension
I'll admit I'm probably not one that you would mention
But I been in the gym and I been benching
Now I could heal the blind, turning water to wine
Man I guess it's just divine intervention

TATO!
What's going on here
I don't belong here
This shit feels wrong
I wanna go
Tell me I'm worth it
That I earned it
That I deserve it
But I don't
Do you know
All I did to get in this room
And yea this room is beautiful
But way too big, there goes those shrooms
Now this room is moving woah
Show is starting
Wtf is this, I assume a funeral
I mean this nigga seem distressed
Holy fuck I need to smoke
When the fuck is halftime
Nigga I don't see the joke
Just smile, I guess it's laugh time
Bout to cough
Guess I'll just choke and die
Cuz I'll choke a bitch if I hear her lean over say told you right
Finally, let me up outta this bitch
Security probably tackle a nigga if I was to shout in this bitch
Out in the lobby step out to a mob
Of faces that all wanna ask bout my job
Or who did I come with,
Where is your escort, my nigga, you bugging
Feel like I'm boxed in
Why they all watching me
Yes we do look cleaner in a suit and we're no longer property
Get off my jock
Made it all the way to the front door and I stop
The lights start flashing
Fuck this
What's going on here
I don't belong here
This shit feels wrong
I wanna go
Tell me I'm worth it
That I earned it
That I deserve it
But I don't
What's going on here
I don't belong here
This shit feels wrong
I wanna go
Tell me I'm worth it
That I earned it
That I deserve it
But I don't
Uh oh it happened again
Look at me snapping again
Look at these actors all over my pickle
If I had a nickel I'd be in the middle
Niggaz oblivious thinking I'm blind
Bitches be hideous thinking I'm fine
No salary, in it for perks
But how much is it worth
Black god try me if you think I'm a nancy ho
When the canons blow, you see they only bout that action when the cameras roll
Curtain for starz, clap at me if I deserve an applause
And hey, if they ain't bringing him back then we turning it off
Y'all all pious, my nigga don't trip
Cuz if Y'all don't like us, then you could suck my dick, hey
I'm so Midas
The bitches excited
I put it inside, she told me not to bust my clip
Heard I opened up somebody's third eye with a verse I
Wrote while contemplating everything that I was cursed by
He asked me where I learned my
Technique for me to survive
I said I just confronted what I thought to be my worst side
Here's my medicine
If you never play, you could never win
Don't understand, this our house
Cut the power out they don't let us in
No dow jones for my shit
Alto no high pitch
Mauve tone so fly shit
Big timing all the hoes
My shot is money cuz my timing's on the nose
Ideas blossom in my brain
And I got diamonds in the grove
I seen birdies turn to eagles when they sliding down the pole
But don't go down that road my nigga
I been down that hole my nigga
What's going on here
I don't belong here
This shit feels wrong
I wanna go
Tell me I'm worth it
That I earned it
That I deserve it
But I don't
What's going on here
I don't belong here
This shit feels wrong
I wanna go
Tell me I'm worth it
That I earned it
That I deserve it
But I don't
Y'all all pious, my nigga don't trip
Cuz if Y'all don't like us
Then you could suck my dick, hey
I'm so Midas
The bitches excited
I put it inside, she told me not to bust my clip
Heard I opened up somebody's third eye with a verse I
Wrote while contemplating everything that I was cursed by

Technique for me to survive
I said I just confronted what I thought to be my worst side

Get up out your seats
Baby it's time to move your feet
Get on up and move your body dancing like no one can see
Down that drink, it's time to slide
Just ignore those prying eyes
Life's too short to be that fuckin shy
*We worked all day, we could trip all night*
I can teach you how to fly
Come with me and take a chance
Everything'll be alright
You did your makeup, hair and nails and took the ride
Oh you didn't come out to dance?
Oh you didn't come out to slide?
Show me something
Let's lose all control
Fuck their judging
Don't stop me I'm on a roll
Get up out your seats
Baby it's time to move your feet
Get on up and move your body dancing like no one can see
Down that drink, it's time to slide
Just ignore those prying eyes
Life's too short to be that fuckin shy
*We worked all day, we could trip all night*
*We worked all day, we could trip all night*
*We worked all day, we could trip all night*
Sublime
May this moment live forever in my mind
As we defy the laws of space and time
Inhuman, we're devine
Let's get outta line
get outta line, get outta line
I'm Sublime
May this moment live forever in my mind
As we defy the laws of space and time
Inhuman, we're devine
Let's get outta line
get outta line, get outta line
I'm Sublime
May this moment live forever in my mind
(Spotlight, let's shine
Have the time of your life and mine)
Inhuman, we're devine
(So fly, so free
You don't know what you do to me)
Sublime
May this moment live forever in my mind

The Glow

Ooh!
*I got that glow*
They asked me how my outro sound like niggaz intro
Cuz I'm that hot
*I got that glow*
You can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk
Music loud and the weed is too
That's the only thing that can keep me cool
Living gone in the swimming pool
.... That's right, That's right
You need some fans oh yea, how foolish of me
We're burning up, but I'm as cool as can be
They think that all I ever shoot is the breeze
Said I just had to wait for Judas to leave
Oh yeah yeah
I got that glow
I got that glow
I got that glow
I got that glow
I got the shine to be a star
That fire in my heart
I got that glow
I got that glow
Uh oh I'm radioactive
My symptoms starting to show
Calm down just try to relax
Cuz truthfully at any second I'm about to explode
I know
I got that glow
I got that glow
I got that glow
I got that glow
I got the shine to be a star
That fire in my heart
I got that glow
I got that glow
And he bossy ay?
Tell my niggaz time to pass the courvossier
Tell them pups they could back up off me ay
Yea you saucy but bitch I'm the Saucier
I'm a broken piece hoping nobody notice me
Least socially
And it's mostly
Cuz I'm feeling myself, inappropriately
On top of that I think I just overshot the gap
And I ain't even have to cock a strap
Not like we allowed toys but still we make loud noise
Aiming for the white like we cocaine cowboys
Show you what that action bout
Show you niggaz how to outlast the drought
I'm so black black black and proud
Dare a nigga tell me stop acting out
Hear the breakdown
*Mind yo fuckin business*
Oh yeah!
*Mind yo fuckin business*
*Mind yo fuckin business*
Let me just tell you when this applies
*Mind yo fuckin business*
If I did some shit you don't know why
*Mind yo fuckin business*
Didn't ask for your advice
*Mind yo fuckin business*
If you mad you got a boring life
*Mind yo fuckin business*
You wonder where I'm at tonight
*Mind yo fuckin business*
If I'm doin something you don't like
*Mind yo fuckin business*
Look like I'm about to fight
*Mind yo fuckin business*
If you see me with a whore all night
Lil whisky and the hormones right
Then in a few weeks on a porno site
*Mind yo fuckin business*
If I'm doin something you don't like
*Mind yo fuckin business*
Look like I'm about to fight
*Mind yo fuckin business*
If you see me with a whore all night
Lil whisky and the hormones right
Then in a few weeks on a porno site
*Mind yo fuckin business*
