lot of talking
buts it's rare to hear some honesty
and honestly
I think that shits the problem G
I'm proud to rep
I know I got a god in me
only one who I be dealing wit
he made a prodigy
who carrying a prophecy
I got
these hometown rappers
in they feelings
Wont apologize
for giving out opinions
I been sticking to convictions
serving out my sentences
i really hate this business
cause all these bars
all these songs
really feeling like a prison
mad that I don't resonate with any of you minions
Never said the shit in public,
I dont do no sneaks, if I be dissing
But listen,
everything aint for everyone
And Yall is out here sounding like
you f***ing everyone
Shit is troublesome
profit cant be going dumb
but still I'm going dummy
thought that they had love for me
but sadly I had been mistaken
i gave em flowers just to give em,
they so easily forgotten
growing jaded
now it's hard to wear the numbers
or the colors of my city
cause they worn out and looking faded
but you be hard pressed to find jealous or me hating
but regardless, i aint wasting time debating
shit aint resonate when your all substance full of faking
the truth the only thing i been creating
for the fame, isint never had a craving,
i seen these cats keep turning craven
got me hesitating
when they tryna lend a hand for shaken
you aint cooking what cooking
cut the fat, but its back to bacon
know the hacks
but i aint cheating
if i make it
cause im sticking to the facts
bars from off the top
aint no cappin in my raps
im really living what im putting my tracks
im really different
i aint workint dor reacts
the passion jn my geaer
how i mnow its meant to last
coming home to bless a session
got me thinking
bout the past
things i thiught i moved passed
growing clear i didnt
but every wrong dun they did me
been forgiven
when i write it
grew up wrappped
i side a darkness
im still leaeninf how to fight it
rapping from my soul
i give a fuck if you dotn like it

phone still ringing
even when the shit
in DND
Don't know
Why they constantly
disturbing me
swear that they perturbed to see
me
get a sec alone
way my family
been grown
think I need a second home
but when you broke
the banks
don't be
approving
you no
second loan
the rates is hiking
the whip is broke down
its back to biking
the pen is ready workin
strike the paper
makin fire
like its lightening
the flow been so electric
and electric
got em frightened
my sense of self belief
is feeling heightened
chakras all
aligned
eyes is wide
I feel enlightened
aura shinin
inner light
been set to shed
a blinding brightness
they saying
profit got
a Christ like
likeness
was on the wrong
path
And still I was moving
righteous
was battling myself
I had to turn and faced a crisis
recognized my value
seen this life is
truly
priceless
my niceness
is not a
reference for politeness
quickly
could
become a cutthroat
with a knife if
you is talking
reckless
never stuck or stagnant
no my soul don grown
hella restless
My time is really precious
my haters
all be
peering at me jealous
tired of having to eat my seconds
seen them fellas looking helpless
said your lack of purpose and success
is not some shit that I can help with
How I know
cause I done tried it
rappers be the hardest ones
to let go of they pride it
be the hardest truth to swallow
they don't want to look inside
same reason
I done seen so many
telling lies
sounding hollow
I found my substance for my music
from my story and my muses
not a bottle
I'm making things I like right now
bit still gon love tomorrow
I came a long way
from those days of feeling sorrow
I did it on my own
I should make that shit the motto
Everything my own so I aint
Never had to borrow
YOLO on my dolo
really repping
with bravado
the luckiest of anyone
I known and i aint even have to
hit the f***ing lotto
powered like a rocket
i been riding on a wave
with the fam like I'm otto
The only thing that I know
Is that a prophet with a purpose
is a very deadly combo

I aint arguing with folks
Who lying broke and outta hope
The ones who gotten so close
But in they moment
They had choked
My soul is one
You never know
You don't speak for me
You hung it up
That shit is sounding weak to me
The outlook
often looking bleak for me
But I'm believing
In the meek in me
Gotta see a milli
For I die
Cant waste a minute
Aint no killing time
Working every second of my life
So now it's killing time
34 but feeling prime
Still in mine
Prophecy
Inside my eyes
I been See divine
Keep in mind
The path filled is filled with mines
Carefully I plot the lines
Walkin on a route
Thats very fine
I avoid the bitter guys
Ones Who love to litter lies
I would rather champion my homies
Then to try and minimize
We aint living
parallel lives
I aint judge yours dog
don't be judging mines
Keep a circle of the realest
Ones who recognize
We all got a god
Buried
Deep inside
nobody's perfect
We all trip and slip and slide
The journey is the purpose dog
Just enjoy the ride
You get everything you meant to
In due time

I mean
I wouldn't say that I'm afraid of it
I grew up idolizing playa shit
And often shied away
From
serious relationships
Maybe cause
how terrible
My patience is
Or Maybe cause
my mother
Didn't show me love
So deep down
I just aint been
Feel like
I'm deserving none
Unable to accept it now
From everyone or anyone
So when they gimme some
I just aint knowing
What to do with it
And when cant absorb they love
you often tend to lose the shit
They can
tell
I aint believing it
No matter what they say
I aint receiving it
Left
Hoping
I can understand
baby
I cant comprehend
Emotions
I was never taught to cope with
Wish this heart
was something
i knew how to open
but I don't
Its locked up tight
And I aint have the key
Was searching deep to find
the softer parts of me
Until I had my kids
Then it all just
came to me
So easily
My babies be
My purpose
And my reason
See They granted me a freedom
To have feelings
I was needing
Nowadays I be releasing love
The same way I be feeling it
My heart was scarred
All The walls
had grown
cold and hard
It took some time for healing
Issues that i had
To deal with
It was me
I had to
learn to keep it real with
Admit that imperfect
but I'm worth it
Always learning to be better
Accepting all my flaws
Allow my love
to be the glue
Thats holds the broken parts
of me together
Forever

74K - FAME

Said I
wonder what it's like
to be famous
Like do you gotta sell your soul
and be brainless
Is it really all a show
is it shameless
Somedays i think it might be better to be
Nameless
I never cared to much for fame
For me
It probably never happen
No interest in the game
Wont Never catch me capping
God told me kill me ego
I found out
It wasn't painless
Doctor keep on asking
where my pain is
Not sure that I know
I feel it somewhere
in my soul
He said okay son well then say less
but they aint taking none of my insurance
never pay less
They collecting
Come real close to the point
I"m meeting lucy
at an undisclosed
intersection
Unless my angels
get to Interjecting
Just Sitting at the crossroads
Know I need some redirection
God
Done got a Lotta kids,
but I need some attention
Lord can you please give ya boy a second
Or a blessing
You sending you way to many tests
Its really got me stressing
Like how I'm supposed to learn all these lessons
Aint No textbooks got the answer to these kinda questions
Between my wifey and my kids
I don't got me no time for no
therapy
But man
I really need a session
Still All
Alone I sit and fight depression
Despite the pills
The shit don't seem to lessen
Daydreaming
Of forever sleeping
In the void
They see me stuck inside a slump
But they too scared to
help
Because they know that I'm annoyed
Only job to raise these kids
But far from unemployed
Expectations rising up
I need some dough to
Stay afloat
If only I was famous
Maybe one day
I could blow
The worlds a crazy place
So you dont ever really know
Said I
wonder what it's like
to be famous
Like do you gotta sell your soul
and be brainless
Is it really all a show
is it shameless
Somedays I think it might be better to be
Nameless

I never heard sorry
from the people who had hurt me
I'm tired of hearing sorry
from the people who desert me
time I say sorry
to the people
who had hurt me
time I say good bye
to everyone
who had desert me
dear mama,
im sorry you gave birth to me
I'm sorry you could never love me
I'm sorry I aint do enough
I'm sorry I was ugly
sorry I would never call
but I was just a kid
who never really understood
why he aint ever
have a mom at all
sorry I had given up
I thought I had forgiven ya
the truth is
I aint missin ya
the truth is
you're an empty soul
the truth is you had left
like you are
Another Someone
with an empty whole
I'm sorry
you wont ever know
the ways I had to make me whole
How i forced myself
To look inside the mirror
And believe that i was beautiful
I'm sorry your so pitiful
I'm sorry you wont ever see these kids
but most of all
I'm truly sorry
for the things I never did
to try and fix it
and that's the worst part
that's the worst part
there's a little boy inside of me
who bares a broken heart
thinks its all his fault
and to him
I'm truly sorry
I'm sorry that you thought
you wasn't good enough
sorry that she couldn't
show you love
I'm sorry that she didn't call
I'm sorry she aint ever really ever seem to give a shit at all
I'm sorry for the lies and
I'm sorry for the times
that she left you let down
I'm sorry cause you aint deserve it
no one in this life is ever perfect
but no one in this world
should ever make you feel like you are worthless
I'm sorry that you had to learn to love yourself
Without your mother's help
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
cause i know you
I never heard sorry
from the people who had hurt us
I'm tired of hearing sorry
from the people who desert us
It's time I said sorry
to the people
who had hurt us
its time I said good bye
to everyone
who had desert us
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
I'm
so
so
so
so
sorry
and I know your not sorry
I know your not sorry at all
at all
I bet you aint sorry at all
i know you aint sorry at all
so I wonder why
I wonder why
I'm sorry at all
(Outro)
It's one of those things where,
I keep thinking I'm past it
or like I've healed or moved on
but every time I have to explore it
or talk about it, it's like ripping something wide open,
and it's just so much pain
and I don't even know how to deal with it
I just uh..
I know my kids will never have to feel that way
And my legacy will never have that pain
ever

we back to rapping
like we never left
best believe that aint stopping
till the day I'm dead or out of beath
these is words is spilling out my mouth
that just been stuck here
flooding up my head
can you bear to hear my pestilence?
i married it to excellence
and bottled it with elegance
crafted from my penmanship
I'm selling it with arrogance
pray my heirs
can see my sole
I'm on a run
i been working
many moons and many sons
just to get some funds
put the legacy
in front
for all my little ones
my daughters and my sons
So they know why daddy
rapping
baby this aint something just happened
It's a passion
to me this like a drug
better yet a therapy
something that
I use for taking care of me
and sharing me
my vocals
how i know
you'll
have my heart
Even
after
i depart
so when you kid's kid's kids
start to pondering
they thoughts
have some questions
in they hearts
they know that
I can speak to em
and tell em how I made it
out the darkest and hardest of the parts
I said first and foremost
look
we all cry
treat life
like its precious
cause we all die
saying no is easy
but imagine if we all try
don't hesitate or wait
if you want it
gotta go and
put the work in
only
Gonna get exactly
what you been deserving
choose your lover and people
by whose honoring
your purpose and your peace
make sure that you pray
and not only
when your weak
learn to talk to god
And not only
On your knees
cause
he can give you what you need
self improvement don't bring solace
if you don't know self acceptance
its okay to lose your path
always ways
you can correct it
noone here is perfect
said
we all gon
make mistakes
if you do nothing
else in life
Promise me
That one day
you'll create
Please create
(Outro - Patricia)

see
this shit just aint been
goin how its sposed to
woulda had the old me
going postal
to be honest dog
I'm feeling loco
in these the moment
where you really show you
who you is
and though on most days
im still feeling like a kid
i done did a lot of growing up
it's for myself
who i been showing up
tardy to game
im still broke but never broken
i just charge it to the game
little credit given
when they preference is disdain
but thats okay cause
im unconcered what these people gon say
cause
we aint stoppin anyway
choose make my own decisions
rather be fault if im gon lose
was never one for following they cues
god been giving signs
hope I aint missing
any clues
remember wishing
he would tell me what to do
i learned the hard ways
dreams aint easily
something
that be comin true
overnight success
is rarely that
most I know who made
been in love with rap
since the way back
i think delusion
gon be needed
all they warnings never heeded
I aint really listen when they pleaded
they understand my reason
they know my soul been beaten dog
but it aint been defeated
I'm really in my rocky era
could be cocky with the way my people prop
me up
support is something
i aint always have
I recall me down bad
now my family involved
my momma here to help me be a dad
father someone who im proud of
im just tryna make him proud of me
he proud to see
me following my dreams
and if it never happens
everyday
i still be grasping mics
and steady rapping
never was the one
to be attention grabbing
but now I need an audience
that's outside of my faction
trying to play that main character
uncomfortable
its time for
taking action
wont catch me out
not kicking up my feet
aint no relaxing
the movement going slow
but we been picking up some traction
couple people in my circle
falling off
when shit aint adding up
you gotta start subtracting
the equation still aint making cents
but this aint never been
about me making cents
solely cause the heavens sent me
messages
to go share all of my lessons
this
my legacy
I'm
giving y'all this
everything inside of me
I'm never gonna lie to you
cause I refuse to lie to me
hope the me removing my own privacy
and showing you a side of me
that I was used to hiding
we gon risk it all
hope yall
wanna get involved
without you listening
this shit dont work
said im grateful for thelisten
see me resonating
make it worth it
pray that yall find peace
and accept
that we imperfect
im just tryna share the mission,
and the vision
and the journey
