Greatness takes its time
It ain’t worried what you think of it
When you walk with God
Everybody wants to link with it
It be y’all demise
When you take a shot at shrinking him
My will’s always mine
Got them tangled like Ms. Pinkett Smith
We can catch a vibe
With the violence and getting big
You should have pride
Individuals, distinctiveness.
Where we draw the line
When you switch because you’re envious
Fuck about effeminate
The shit is ridiculous.
This the flow that conquers colonists
And make them sink their ships
Some of us may die
But by the hands of cowards? Think of it
I’ll defend my honor
‘Cause these niggas really think they’re witty
I know they talk behind us
But copy us, tryna kick it with me
Anywhere I wander
Always making sure I keep it Philly
What the fuck’s Wakanda
A reminder they deleted history
Evil knows it’s time’s up
You see how Gen Z’s transitioning
Only way to climb is up
I rile them up they seek to kill me
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Tell me it’s gonna be
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Tell me it’s gonna be
God calls to his children
I’ve crawled to the altar
And I’ve longed to be with him
My heart’s all scarred
Still processing liquid
Scotch, vodka, I’m awful
Got the toilet out of commission
I’ve offered my gifts to them
They’re in awe at my difference
This is all after scoffing
‘Cause I’m not as into skin as them
I’m more for what’s within them
Take pause, this is intimate
You’re offended ‘cause you’ve
Taken part in resenting him
Who the fuck is he
Who the hell could he be
You can tell he ain’t of us
But he still seems to be free
Had a good time while it lasted
Is this the feeling of defeat?
I show I care so much
I make a nigga’s ego bleed
I’ve attempted to decrease
But it’s really all I know
When I took the lead
Everybody took from me at home
See what they did to me
How the fuck could I not feel alone
When I got it on my own
Really got it on my own.
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Tell me it’s gonna be
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Tell me it’s gonna be

What Does It Mean
01:12
|
|||
What does it mean to be normal?
I've tried being sweet, keep it clean and cordial
I've tried everything, tried even ignoring you
It's time to be me, who cares if I disappoint you?
Knowing I'm going to.
Stuff to look forward to.
You think it's as simple as just
Pushing and going through it
Why would I wish I could
Take away what I've learned from you niggas
Took wrong turns, met false earners
I've burned for you niggas
What does it mean to be like you?
I breathe, shit, sleep, fuck, and eat just like you
I look at my feet and I look way up high, too
But something ain't right, dude.
Something ain't right.
And I will never act like
I don't see what my eyes do
And I will never let them
Hack my mind to say I'm foolish
And I will never lie to make them
Think that I like foolishness
Useless assuming shit
You forget we are human skin.
Who is this?
True religion is pure commitment.
A mission from your vision
Get with my community
Whose views can I mix with?
A duo off our hinges
And do it all for our friendship
A clue that I'll always get
But I have never had a friend with.
So maybe I come off a bit too
Kind at first begin with
I say hi, how I was rised
The age of 5 I saw the difference
I treat my people in a high regard
'Cause if you isn't then a
Gremlin might catch you slick off your guard
But we risk it
Build defenses
Tell ourselves we play it smart
Walking fences
Bought us into being several feet apart
Walking benches
God in glimpses
They portray that as the art
Y'all are innocent but
It don't mean the Lord won't do his part.

Goddess

I been losing my shit back since smooth was a jit
It's too hard to commit when you move every minute
This ain't some shit I'ma kick back and listen
I'm talking 'bout can you carry what you're lifting
Talking 'bout can you bury it or shift it
You think that it's scary, I'm being uplifting
The best thing to do is to let it all go.
Let it all go.
Always surrounded by beautiful women
They play with my name and my hair and my linens
They be like Despues, you're the greatest you're gifted
But I'm way too humble for all of that shit
These girls will love you then next thing you miss them
Like how in the fuck did you get me to switch
Throw my six up, it's in this blood
That's my life path, tell them give up.
I got big nuts for a pickup
Put this dick up in your niece.
Dirty dreads, purity spreads,
Tried to slick up with the grease
That's that buildup how I build up
Is by measuring completely
What's your dreams, Queen, what you need
Then I'm gone see how strong them knees be.
Get that 3-piece bathing suit
I'm tryna hit the beach discretely
Baby lie, tell me the sweet things
If I cry, won't let you see me
Ease my mind, I'm tryna be free
Demon time even when sleeping
This anxiety be kicking my ass
Silently but lethally.
All I want is your goddess.
Take me with you, Your Highness.
All I want is some progress
But you know how the mind gets
All I want is your goddess.
Take me with you, Your Highness.
All I want is some progress
But you know how the mind gets
I can admit
I be liking that shit
You be hyper than shit
When it’s time for the dick
Like how you listen
Try new positions
When you start
Talking ‘bout having my kids
And when you bother me
No ending
I’m in your body
Still a friendship
What we do privately
Whose business
You’re a divine piece
Of your lineage
Who I gotta impress
I’ve got checks and I’m blessed
And I’m having some sex
I put my money where mind is
And start thinking hard about it
Really I need me a compadre
Who gone ride with me to death
And right off her feet I swept
Finally I can see how dimes are spent
All I need in my deeds
They provide me with the rest
I guess.
Just be kind to me when I’m stressed.
‘Cause girl you be tripping
How you violent over text?
You beside me then you help
I love how you be analyzing
Like every line is a test
Love the high rises and
Not too shy on the breasts
Whatever you like I can get
I’m your sky I’ll make you wet

I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home.
I just want to beat that pussy
I’ma make sure she knows
Ain’t nobody as good as me
I just…
I’m finna break her bones
She told me keep pushing
My shit like a stone
Digging her all night long.
I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home
You play with your own emotions
I just be playing along
Girl you know you looking good as shit
The whole place knows
We gotta go through the motions
Both of us taking it slow
Start with your face that I’m stroking
Then I be making you “oh”
Surprise.
When I be changing the flow
That’s that level that you can’t get to
Unless you are a pro.
Make her lose control
And she wants a ride
She start seeing the other side
As soon as I get inside.
I just wanna… ooh
Get my hands on you
Know you in and out
And get to understanding you
Once I figure you out
Consider I put my brand in you
Official stamp on you
Make a whole camp in you
Make it real damp in you…
Finna make you catch this Uber
I just wanna give it to you
Can’t admit what I’d do to you
I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home.
I just want to beat that pussy
I’ma make sure she knows
Ain’t nobody as good as me
I just…
I’m finna break her bones
She told me keep pushing
My shit like a stone
Digging her all night long.
I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home
I just wanna take her home

Me Too
02:51
|
|||
I ain't worried if you
Love me or not
But if you're ever acting funny
Hope you never get caught
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
My love is infinite but
Everybody sees love different
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
I know you ain't met nobody
Treat you as good as I do
Talk about the brave and the few
I ain't no Marine but when it come to my team
Believe I'm gone shoot
Ask me what I mean, try to get between
You gone see what we do
You touch a piece, better move it.
But I got this feeling in my chest
I know you guess my intentions
I know the world has been a mess
And you won't ever forget it
You try to race me to deception
I can't finish a sentence
The world suffering from depression
They insist we be separate
You don't understand my pain
I do not know what a friend is
A black shepherd, I look around
I can tell they're pretending
They want me when I'm spending
They want money to lend them
Prayers, well wishes, prosperity
Success what I send them
I ain't worried if you
Love me or not
But if you're ever acting funny
Hope you never get caught
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
My love is infinite but
Everybody sees love different
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
They're gone say I'm with the devil
They gone say I sold my soul
They gone say old me was better
They gone say that I got old
Try to manipulate me? Never
Ain't no issue saying no
But where was all this extra effort
When I needed you to grow?
Somehow you remembered
Times you helped, you're keeping score
Oh, it's December, heavy winter
Hope you didn't leave your coat
They got egos made of bronze
So couldn't treat me like I'm gold
I be feeling like LeBron
My team gone win, so what you on?
Ain't no reason or excuse,
But Ima make sure that you know
You want to be an enemy don't be discrete
Come let it show
I love my people so much
But it be feeling like they don't
You can't see the vision cool
But don't try to take me out my zone.
I ain't worried if you
Love me or not
But if you're ever acting funny
Hope you never get caught
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
My love is infinite but
Everybody sees love different
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too
I give my all, they got flaws, yeah but me too

Honey Dutch

My eyes are up here, dummy
Worried 'bout my chest 'cause you been ear hustling
Real funny. We ain't fuck in two weeks
She said she still cumming.
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch
If her tummy tuck and her butt need puff
She be sucking blood out my dick
That bitch like Buffy, yuh, come get this nut
She gone slay my shit
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch
Hit the pluggy up
He like what you want
I need 30Gs
Of that stuffy stuff
I can make it rain
When the sun is up
Let it shine on me
Shea buttered up
I take care of myself
'Cause when I wake up
I don't think I'm someone else.
it be like what the fuck
All these druggy drugs
Got my stummy fucked up
Buggy bug
But I know they want none
I done let too many niggas get close
Seen how they use me and use it to boast.
You wish you knew me,
Too cool to approach
'Member I used to be doing the most
Now I do less and they're giving me more
I'm looking right into
Your eyes when I see you
I ain't got no special surprises
So be cool
I know you ain't never felt
Nothing like this before
Getting to my goals
Doesn't mean I was trying to keep score
You can't just speedrun through your life
Gotta keep going
I wrap my hands around that mic
Them lyrics keep flowing
Got harder to sleep through the night
My demons see me and die
Finally a piece of the pie!
My eyes are up here, dummy
That's funny
....
She still cumming.
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch
....
She sucking blood out my dick
...
She gone slay my shit, aye
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch
I've been bussing these hoes down...
Like a honey dutch

I'm Good
03:00
|
|||
It's what you tell yourself
You've gotta say: I'm good
Some don't want to help,
Some just want to play: I'm good
It's bad for your health
Can't get in the way: I'm good
Check yourself: I'm good
Tell yourself: I'm good
It's what you tell yourself
You've gotta say: I'm good
Some don't want to help,
Some just want to play: I'm good
It's bad for your health
Can't get in the way: I'm good
Check yourself: I'm good
Tell yourself: I'm good
First of all I'm proud of myself
For how far I've came
In the gym getting my gains
I've been working on my game.
How I caught up to these niggas
And I put their shit to shame.
Dedicated to my vision
I can't see no other way.
They stare at me 'cause I shimmer shine
And I don't need a chain
How they tell me they look in my eyes
And see I've been through pain
I done really conquered flames.
...
It fucked my heart up
But I'm still the same.
I need love, I need love
I need love...
But all I know is how to be love...
I don't know how to receive love
I been focused, grinding,
Absorbing, refining
I'm tryna give you all that I got
Ain't no shortcuts, trying
I'm going, finding.
Whatever's meant for me from my God
It's what you tell yourself
You've gotta say: I'm good
Some don't want to help,
Some just want to play: I'm good
It's bad for your health
Can't get in the way: I'm good
Check yourself: I'm good
Tell yourself: I'm good
It's what you tell yourself
You've gotta say: I'm good
Some don't want to help,
Some just want to play: I'm good
It's bad for your health
Can't get in the way: I'm good
Check yourself: I'm good
Tell yourself: I'm good
Sometimes I gotta miss out
Visiting your party
Priority is making sure
I'm prepared for when they call me
Not a target, just because you're
At the wall looking at me
How you all up in my business
But disregarding me
I'm too focused on getting what I'm owed
So do not bother me
I gotta make sure I'm cemented
Before they can walk on me
They pick the obvious
But I'm too tall for these little trees
They'll say I'm Hollywood
'Cause I ain't lost tryna make you see me.
Your DNA is piece of cake
I had to beat my fate
Fuck cards dealt, I look at myself
And I see I'm great
Wasn't even close to where I could've been
Still people hated
Every day I'm full of gratitude
I keep creating
Kept tryna prepare, fuck it
I took a leap of faith in it
Now we're eating great, innit
Seafood and steak, innit
Shawty feed me grapes and shit
Every single day is lit.
Black sheep. Unique.
For my loved ones it's the greatest gift.

Sorry (Never)
02:43
|
|||
We live with it
Tell me how I do it's wrong
Fuck it I'm right in it
They like how you do it's been too long
Shit I'm quite splendid
Been putting my ink to the pad
Wanted me to sink, we couldn't sync
Gave everything that I had
But what's an asset?
They hate I be making them add
Give me the bag then
They looked in my face and they laughed
I'm like what happened.
They revealed their face from their masks
I got that mystery machine
I got that scooby dooby doo
Dooly dooly doo
Make them all go stupid
When I move into the room
See a nigga juicy
Women choosy choosy choose
Don't act like you know me, homie
Who the hell is you
Never had to flex but when I flex
They know the work did
How you live for years and years
And you ain't learn shit?
They tried to curse us
It ain't just a word, kid.
Those with ears, can you hear?
You are perfect.
Sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...
They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me
It ain't never sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...
They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me
It's a blizzard
Told you don't fuck with a wizard
Like the money, you're a dummy
Never really figured
Let them whisper
They don't know I did this shit for
Love and trying to find out
Why we're here on this universe
This verse, it hurts
Imperialist jerks
How the fuck you know a lot
If you've never had shit first?
I be stomping on my enemies
In bunny slippers
I make waves, make you shiver
It shows on the Richter.
This that Philly shit
I gotta rep my city shit
That niggas on the block wheelieing
Wu-Tanging and dealing shit
That D-Maccing, with action
Make it look like we be chilling shit
That get home from the Masjid
And get right back to this villain shit
A smooth jawn...
You let people tell you what's right
How you say I move wrong?
How I lift that weight from my plight?
They like I'm too strong
It's automatic when I'm shooting on them
Too easy.
It be target practice when I pull up on 'em.
Sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...
They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me
It ain't never no sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...
They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me

RIOT!
01:42

(They know they ain't got no business
Fucking around with the
Fucking around with the goat.)
They ain't gone keep talking crazy
Right in front my face
We gone have to say what's up
And not no peaceful shake
Who knows what they took from us,
So yeah we're here to take
Yeah we got them huffing puffing
Like they need a break
We can't sleep evil don't like defeat
They'll give us blankets
I'm a soldier boy,
They hear me on the beat they crank it
Tryna make sure history
Don't repeat generations
How we let us be this weak
Truthfully it's amazing
Who's strapped up, boots strapped up,
Fool act up get stomped
Tick tock, no silly watch better get back
Your boy is a bomb
Forget the gossip I ain't into talking
I'm getting far away from the drama
Ain't a sign to see, here comes cavalry
Sometimes gotta be karma
No surprise would've thought them wise
Tried to give them time I warned ya
Suit and tie won't do this time
I'm fighting for my honor
You will die tryna scrutinize
I think Medusa's my mama
Who is God, my useful guide
I wasn't raised with a father
Riot! Riot! Riot! Riot!
Riot! Riot! Riot!
Once we stand up, strength in numbers
Ain't nobody safe
They gone have to put a new roof
Up inside this place
Riot! Riot! Riot! Riot!
Riot! Riot! Riot!
Don't be playing with your
Life because it's got a date
But don't let nobody ever
Make you stop your pace

Why Should I
03:59
|
|||
Why should I have therapy
If none of you hearing me
Knowing all my life something wasn't right
That shit be tearing me
Staying up every night improving my life
I don't really care to sleep
Tell me about life, we are not the same
It was never fair for me
I already know I'm gone have to die
For you to cherish me
Still could give a fuck I know
All love is temporarily.
I've got so much strength in me
I never needed empathy
Besides I'm used to you using
That bullshit as an ends to meet.
All I'm doing is paying for talking
And I know where it leads
They gone try to tell me I'm crazy
And put those meds on me
You act like I'm not motivated
Or couldn't change if needed
I still get flashbacks of those days
When I was berated, beaten
Difference between me and you is
I don't be chasing demons
Difference between me and you is
I really faced my demons
Difference between me and you
Is I celebrate I'm breathing
Been done with crying
I just lie there staring blank in evenings.
Shout out to the outcasts
Who auditioned put their passion in it
Knew what was their path and went for it
They have the best intentions
You're the X Factor, an idol
And you don't have to win it
Laughing at the quitters in effort
'Cause they don't have it in them
Getting past your past is a battle
You can't just trash your memories
Adam taking licks of the apple
Wasn't a bad decision
Those With Ears hear hold your clapping
Let them attack my wisdom
They be so hype to react
They can't even relax to listen.
Why I'm in LA living lavish
They don't know half I've been through
We must get over the racket
But I still packed my tennis shoes
Why should I have therapy
If none of you hearing me
Knowing all my life something wasn't right
That shit be tearing me
Staying up every night improving my life
I don't really care to sleep
Tell me about life, we are not the same
It was never fair for me
I already know I'm gone have to die
For you to cherish me
Still could give a fuck I know
All love is temporarily.
I've got so much strength in me
I never needed empathy
Besides I'm used to you using
That bullshit as an ends to meet.
They gone keep
Testing tryna press me with all this fucking rage
Fuck 'bout your discomfort I know you ain't never been rubbed this way
Was much too patient
Letting my blood bubble with these fucking racists
Podcast politics, fucking hate it
All y'all can save it
Kept my glass half full
That means I wasn't drinking
Started processing the toxins
That means my stomach wakes up.
Intuition giving me warnings
I had to pause and wait up
Sometimes I have to give credit
To my own constellations
Laughs on Facebook.
I was 12 they still tell me I'm out of line
Ask why I'm crying
Act like they don't know every time
They say I'm just whining
Meanwhile they told me they were listening
I just say yes and dismiss them, sick of fucking trying
Thinking of fucking dying
Told Katie I'm done with suicide
But truly I can't take it
And I know what to do this time.
Full of rhymes, you entertain your demons But be juking mine
Lost so many friends I'm surprised I can use my spine.

Lion in a Cage
03:40
|
|||
I need my breathing space
You won't see me today
I just want to keep creating
Can't let my energy be taken
Too long I'd seek okays
Meanwhile I'm feeling strange
How is it I'm outside
Feel like a lion in a cage
I want to be myself
Sorry you don't see it this way
Crossroads with things I've left
I give the Spirit thanks.
Money won't ease my pain
Judge me don't see my change
Suffering I see my blame
How you want me the same?
You're talking to the right one
Harsh truths, yeah I like them
I walked in it so why run?
No excuse on my tongue
To you everything's a bygone
But won't let me loose when I say bye I'm gone
For you never had to ask how high, I jump
I like shooting but I'm looking for my dunk
No more losing, all I had to do was try once
How you get closer act like you have empathy
Loving me is torture, treating friends like enemies
Not trying to avoid you, I just have inner peace
I don't need noise to help me feel settled and at ease
I can be cordial but I'm not good with little speech
I'm here for you, only moving forward when we meet
I give glory, why do I have to be discrete?
I need my breathing space
You won't see me today
I just want to keep creating
Can't let my energy be taken
Too long I'd seek okays
Meanwhile I'm feeling strange
How is it I'm outside
Feel like a lion in a cage
I want to be myself
Sorry you don't see it this way
Crossroads with things I've left
I give the Spirit thanks.
Money won't ease my pain
Judge me don't see my change
Suffering I see my blame
How you want me the same?
Why should I feel disgraced
All on our own paths, mine leads in a different way
If you want to ride with me, I advise walk over say hey
I just feel obliged to teach, everyone deserves to be great
Kingdom inside me,
I'm on my knees when I give him praise.
Who are you to say you can't hear me when intensity raises
Some of the slickest tongues come from
Developing a little Patience
Bickering is inspiration.
So talk to me.
Why should I confine to the norm
I have been scorned, before I had a chance to be born
Planned to abort.
Still kicking, I'm meant to move forward
Still in it.
Honesty, confidence, personality, let them witness it
Picturing an imminent transition to kindness
God is prevailing over Evil
Putting feel goods into conscious
See I came from basements, shared rooms and garages
But who could stop this
Only music could massage his
Curious mindset
Grew from Monster to ruthless as Godzilla
Could sober up, you know you're even more you off the ganja.
Who was too proper?
You should understand clues in the context.
What's a genre that speaks to kings and great rulers inside us
Who determines if we get the yards in?
I was my own coach
Gotta build chemistry to get started
Teachers love to boast
But tell me what the alumni is
Sheep you're supposed to grow
Discover what happens beyond this...
But leave me out of it..
