Lyrics
the pen and pad jotting down whats in my thoughts only
i dim the lights pour the whiskey lit cigar smoking
spit it til the booth on fire and my jaw toning
my goals to get a ‘mil house’ like im barts homie
I drink away the pain while sipping til the bars closing
cause I am sick of broken promises you talk phony
it be impossible recouping what you all owe me
I knew this path wasn’t paved feel im off roading
letting go of those I held inside my heart closely
rocking with myself til im old like bon jovi
from one ear then out the other had me eye rolling
ignoring comments I dont even got the time scrolling
im just tryna make the best of this divine moment
cause artists get replaced each year like an I phone is
while the media’s brain washed and blind folded
goin out like heath ledger think that im joking
my fam gave up, my friends gave up, my girl gave up, shit I never gave up
made the beat, put it on repeat, fill another sheet
ignoring those who front on me, move feet in front of me
I deuce-peace who trouble me, never gonna lose sleep
cause truly, I wanna be ,
the underdog who gets to the top to scream fuck em all
going head on thru the obstacles im the juggernaut
no longer sit warming the bench , cause im coming off
and I dont even gotta coach but learning imma god of flows
tell the competition adios, get your body smoked
like spare ribs on top of coal,
theres only one EYE and im sharp rocking a monocle =—
and never fucking say you had my back either
back hand your forehead like a bad fever
I aint stopping til im feeling like the grass greener
putting numbers on the board like a math teacher
I book the show, go promote, gotta take control
invest in merch, hope it sold, not breaking even tho
still stay dripping in sauce like made pizza dough
and run the game waring out bottoms of all sneaker soles
my dj wouldnt play my record thinks it doesn’t fit
afraid to go against the grain and play some other shit
a&rs never bring to their meetings
cause ill scare em with my honesty and status quo they leading
I story board it, go direct it, then I shoot and edit,
movie credit, use investments, but only few attentive -
they do neglect it but who defend him Im losing henchmen
keep my diary digital like im judy jetson
