All of the things that I
Wanna be doing are
All of the things that I'm
Doing right now
Throwing myself at the
Audience just like I'm
Throwing myself at the crowd
I just wanna shine for the crowd
I just want time to get loud
I just want y'all to hear the message,
Quit the stressin', get the sound
I get love from my town
I'll always be around
As long as the memory of
Me can surround you and your crown
I'll never let you down
I'll never let you down
I'll never let you down
You'll never drown

Roots
02:49
|
|||
I'm a darkened soul, darker heart
These are my dark roots
You don't want the fire, but
Looks like I gotta spark truth
Bring it back to the kids,
Return it to the youth
So let's just set ablaze
My local vocal booth
Black nigga, that nigga
Always fingering fat triggers
Bet I could shoot you and you could shoot me,
And I wont die yo, go figure
New niggas on the block
Get off the bus, ayy this yo stop
If you don't put your hands up,
I'm letting loose a gorilla
White bitches, favorite flavor vanilla
And I'm ice cold, icy here like a killa
And I got my 80s on, cos I'm a thriller
And if I was blind, I still wouldn't feel ya
Coming way more than average
Coming through to do damage
Coming up cos coming up is now
My new status
The raddest and baddest nigga around,
Even on some sad shit
And I don't have no more baggage
I bagged it up like a savage
And salvaged that like some granite
Then battled while staying standing
And many can hardly stand me but the
Standards are hard to manage
So can it, stop claiming sadness
Depression, lesson-learned adding
Subtract it and reestablish
That my nigga I'm 10 MAG and I
Gotta go in like Vectis
Gotta go in like breakfast
Gotta go in like sex and
I always burn like Texas
Y'all don't wanna believe me
Take the lyrics and read me
Pull apart the words of the
Song and just try to see me
Shameless nigga, aimless nigga
Where's my indiscretion?
I took that shit and rolled it up
Blew that in the last session
Now all my demons here to
Put it down like some Tetris
But I stay checking marks so
Mark me down for Mark checking
Smith and Wesson, always blessing me
With enemies to kill
Knocking bills, popping pills
Y'all know I never will
I stay playing, picking, paying
Getting paid for my skills
And if anybody catch me fronting
There's plenty room up in the will
So Jesus come take the wheel
If proof of you can reveal
That your book ain't a steal
Make me bark like a seal
I'm not a sucka for real
I'm not a busta for real
I ain't no punk, nigga I'm ill
Studious sniper, I kill
Rapidly, crap's unreal

Blow Up
02:54
|
|||
Yo there's a party at my house,
Show up
I'm getting into my element so I
Can blow up
My homies all in the room and
We 'bout to go nuts
Til like 8 in the morning
So we stay lit
Yeah, sho' 'nough
What's good? There's a
Gig this evening
Lots a people coming, I'm
Running late, but you can see me
It's about to go down at the room
So maybe you should bring three
Friends to hang til the break of
Dawn, or til the next song
Creep, creep, creep
Crawling, balling
Running round in Nikes
Thuggin’ with the mighty
I'm cleaning the meaning of
Spraying and praying
While all these people blowing
Up gather round me
So come through
If a nigga like you
Wanna get caught red-dotted,
Shot up like co-op, bodied
We're too busy living life to the fullest
Having a little party, you already know
Ladi Dadi
So blow up
Blow up
Blow up
Throw ya hands in the air like you just don't give a fuck
If you gotta get it, then
Go get it
The J's burning so
Get to stepping,
Son, you know you ain't the
Only one trying to
Throw it in the air
As it rises out your lung
And leaves you spun
Feeling like I'm number one
On the top of the planet,
This Static OG got me done
So I blow up in the
Morning for breakfast
Smoking it up
Like a wreckage
It's okay,
I'm never reckless
So dig the message,
Quit stressing
Let's take a trip tonight
To the good ol' Sticky Icky
Lemme know, lemme know
If it gets a bit tricky
Yeah, the show/Yeah, the show
Is so lit, we're lifting
Off the ground at
The speed of sound
Lemme get the blunt
Another round
And blow up
Blow up
Blow up
Throw ya hands in the air like you just don't give a fuck

G.A.N.G.S.T.A.Z.
02:56
|
|||
I'm here to make a mark on the masses
And the fake asses of the classless Gs
Hard set on revenge to the end,
But nobody wanna stop me
Knock em down to the ground
Lay it on em, pound for pound
The sound of shotguns singing
And Mac 10s ringing
Leaves these niggas dreaming
While my gangstas stay schemin’
Yo, who the fuck is next
I'm bringing back the Wild Wild West
So throw on ya vest cuz
It's about to get stressful
Check ya neck before I wreck your
Set cuz
All of the niggas who stand before me
Never disrespect the intellect
I intersect with nothing but net
Rhymes, time and time again
Lemme spell it for ya
G-A-N-G-S-T-A-Z, see
Real mothafuckin' Gs
Nigga, we ain't pussy
G-A-N-G-S-T-A-Z
You and me
We're gangstas
Out here looking for bread,
But all I see is heads to
Scope; Take note and have hope
These niggas tryna cope
It feels like I'm the one that's doing dope
Lyricism harder than Carter
But even smarter for starters
Real niggas come from the bottom
And bustas stay in the gutter
Motherfucka
Come step to these
Straight gangsta OG
Homies got me up late with the duct tape
Wrapped around the magazines to keep the fire rate going
Blowing through the intersection, 'bout to run late
70 miles an hour down the road not knowing there were
Niggas 'round the corner store, picking up whores
Didn't even see the car with the high beams glowing
Opened up the doors and let em have it
Let's go goddammit
We got a nigga to visit
"But every time we roll out
We're always getting into shit"
And? You act like that's a bad thing,
Let's throw these niggas up like moving
Pictures on the black screen
Ain't no use in all these niggas acting mean
I'm about to make these niggas lean
And wish they were on a different team, B
Let's go, square up, you and me
I'll meet you in the alley 'round 3
So, tiptoe through the window
While the dumb ho tries to let go and
Keep her bitch nigga from getting bold
10pm and the whips outside
Chock full of cocked nines
Pointed at his home
Run your numbers, run the streets
Put in the work, then put down the enemy
Blasting on fools seems to be the only remedy
Except without the elegy
So you wanna be gangsta?
Straight up G?
Then shoot this nigga's face off
Like you wanna be on TV
And crack a smile when they send in the SWAT team
Then you'll know what I mean
G-A-N-G-S-T-A-Z
You and me
We're gangstas

Another Day
02:16
|
|||
Waking up in the morning to a brand new day
Checking my messages, stay lax on the hate
'Cos I don't really give a damn what a nigga say
Shit, shower, shave the slave, I'm on my way
Jetting around in the Celica, felony selling em
Shotties be popping and dropping, straight shelling em
If you're a witness, then you're finna get this, I'm telling ya
Best get to stepping, preparing your parent's acceptance huh?
Another day in the high life
Another grain in a fine time
Another point in your timeline
Another joint for your ripe mind
Another day in the high life
Another say on the lifestyle
Why throw it all away? Just watch the sky shine
Another day has me feeling some kinda way,
Chocolate cake with the fudge
Indica, in-da-couch, I won't budge
Of your bud, I'll be the judge
Lick it to stick it, then roll it up
Who am kidding? The shit is uplifting
Making the magic, I'm feeling so gifted
Looking so damn good, I just kissed it
Were you saying something? I just missed it
Tracking attacking is what I'm never lacking, if I gotta go and get an
Axe and a sack for every limb I hacked off, I don't wanna have to
Laugh in the back of taxi asking if anybody's gonna come and
Pass me a jack to lift me up off my fucking back
Yesterday ain't a day like today, oh no it ain't
Maybe my baby and I can be lazy, just chill til 8
Have an all nighter with pineapple, fire, and stay up late
Fluidly doing the music that I appreciate
Consistently hoping that haters have something new to hate
Flipping and flopping around in the water, come get the bait
I stay levitating, generating, escalate
But you'll never catch me rolling 'round in Escalades
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date
Now eat this album up and get it on the release date

Fade Out
03:12
|
|||
Let’s reflect, I recollect a time where I was more than sex
But next, select the section on the left, detect the bigger picture
Because I figure yet again, the men that send these hateful
Texts expect a wreck, no resurrection left to check
I am alive but I despise the lies that try to pry
Their way inside my life, the countless times I fucking tried to
See my rhyme turn into reason, but my mind keeps fucking leaving
And these friends, I call deceiving… And its lucky they’re still breathing
(Fade out) Yo, I ain’t trying to fuck with ya
(Fade out) So now I gotta aim at ya
(Fade out) ‘Cos now I’m fucking mad at ya
(Fade out) And I’mma pop off with my gat at ya
(Fade out) Yo, I ain’t trying to fuck with ya
(Fade out) So now I gotta aim at ya
(Fade out) ‘Cos now I’m fucking mad at ya
(Fade out) And I’mma pop off with my gat at ya
Let me catch you in the streets
I’mma cap you with my heat and
Get your bitch up in my sheets (yow)
If you have the vodka, you and me could be the
Best of fucking friends the world has ever seen and
Never will a nigga lift a fucking finger
‘Less I pull the trigger on this nigga’s dome
But a nigga know that
If he try to game at you, I’ll pull the glock and
Pop a couple shots and body niggas left and
Right; my aim is hotter than this fucking song
These dudes be mad ‘cos I game ‘em
No wonder their girlfriends ain’t staying
Ain’t even fucking ‘em brainless
Hitting ‘em up with the same shit
She’s outro like a bad flick
Ain’t giving a fuck ‘cos she’s through with it
Now I got her living fucking lit
I said all of my niggas be running around (running around)
Running around (all of my niggas)
Running around (running around)
Running around, I said all of my niggas be running around (running around)
Shooting your town (all of my niggas)
Running around (running around)
Ay, we be running, rolling deep
(Fade out) Yo, I ain’t trying to fuck with ya
(Fade out) So now I gotta aim at ya
(Fade out) ‘Cos now I’m fucking mad at ya
(Fade out) And I’mma pop off with my gat at ya
(Fade out) Yo, I ain’t trying to fuck with ya
(Fade out) So now I gotta aim at ya
(Fade out) ‘Cos now I’m fucking mad at ya
(Fade out) And I’mma pop off with my gat at ya

Logging On
03:13
|
|||
Shining’, flying’, now you see me driving’
Ridin’ through the city, drop top so you know I’m vibin’
Out hitting routes; trying not to worry about
The queens, diamond rings, and the little things
I stay devoted to the notion of driving from my emotions
And causing all the commotion that I can
Even though all of my compassion is now just my main distraction
And has me sitting here laughing like, ‘damn’
Switch lanes, gas pedal, lets go
Let another automatic pass me up, oh no
80 on the main roads (ha), never slow
Ask me where I’m going and I keep it on the low-low
Its kinda funny to me
That where I’m at is never where I thought I would be
Picture-perfect, fresh rhymes, life as good as can be
Let M4KI-PLUS and 10 Mag be your remedy
I just wanna fly
I just wanna drive so far away
So I can find my own peace of mind
I just need to drive
I just wanna fly
I just wanna drive so far away
So I can find my own peace of mind
I just need to drive
What can I say - (what can he say?) maybe I’m born evasive
I like to kidnap my problems (kidnap, kidnap) and I go erase ‘em (cut)
I stay lit up like a deer in the headlights
So I don’t envy those who can never escape that life
Black shadows, silhouettes dancing’
All around the blacktop, past these mansions
No dames on the brain, just snatch
And the motion of the ocean ‘cos my potion is smokin’
Remember when you would hang with your crew,
All the things that you’d do; voodoo, gas, smoke, and drifting Subaru
Unless I’m by myself, I always got myself
And forever will, way more than you do
Remember back in the day, when only parents would say
That they didn’t want us to grow up the way that they did
In the years that they did, back before they faded
Straight into the people we see today
But belay that last remark
I’m trying not to start up anything but this car
So I can drive hella far, desert the dessert for a minute
(Ha) And pass these stars
I just wanna fly
I just wanna drive so far away
So I can find my own peace of mind
I just need to drive
I just wanna fly
I just wanna drive so far away
So I can find my own peace of mind
I just need to drive

Take You Under
04:10
|
|||
Excuse me, miss
May I get your attention?
I know you don't know me but
We can both plainly see
Our connection
Ooh girl,
The way you stay inside my brain,
Along with all the different
Ways you show your affection
You got me thinkin’ aboutcha
Thinkin’ aboutcha
Like I can't sleep without cha
Sleep without cha
You bring my heart relief
And make my heart rate peak
Yeah, you're the one for me
Maybe we can get to know each other
Let's take a dive into one another
I don't see why you and I can't be lovers
Baby, I'm faithful, so let me take you under
One more kiss,
One more taste of your lips
One more hand on those hips
My darling
Another night of this
I can pick you up at six
And you can ride in my whip
My darling
This is bed ain't
What I'm used to
'Cos when I lay inside it,
All that I can feel is you
We can kick it
Like we want to
And baby, if you want me, then
You know what we about to do
You and me, let's count to three- sh!
Nude, all through the night~
Baby girl, I want you
And I need you to know
That you're all mine, all the time
Rain or shine
So let's be sublime
And make that climb
Let me start by saying, you're a hell of a woman and
I'm really glad that you could make it into my life
There's not a lot of things that can bring me out the water
But after all this time, you're the one who revived
Tell it how it is,
Yo, you're the apple of my eye
Loyal like the mafia;
I call her 'Ride or Die'
Everyday I hear your voice,
My heart just feels the vibe
And beautiful, I'll create the Earth from
Scratch in a night
Maybe we can get to know each other
Let's take a dive into one another
I don't see why you and I can't be lovers
Baby, I'm faithful, so let me take you under

Death of Me
03:55
|
|||
Everyday, I look up at the sky hoping I die because now you're the death of me
Getting offended at my way of living, calling it sinning while you're the one necking me
Go let the money and power confuse you and have it abuse you so I can live happily
Everyday, I look up at the sky hoping I die because now you're the death of me
Flawless, Ha that ain't me, but yo, you called it
Never mind the ego, this morning, I made a big deposit
But here you come to take away the fun I've found surrounding
Clouding up my judgement while the blackness builds its walls around me
Y'all niggas think its a game til it's
Your ass above that fucking fire flame
That creeps and tries to kill your brain
It's crazy, mane;
I think I've fucking gone insane
I got so many niggas on my back
They call me Soul Train
Everyday, I look up at the sky hoping I die because now you're the death of me
Getting offended at my way of living, calling it sinning while you're the one necking me
Go let the money and power confuse you and have it abuse you so I can live happily
Everyday, I look up at the sky hoping I die because now you're the death of me
Let me get intricate
I'll warn you right now it's about to get intimate
So don't hear a little bit
I aim to inform you so you can envision this
You never let up with it
Doing all that you can in your power to make me sick
Yo, I came here to finish it
I'm about to go ham so you better get into it
So real quick let me ask a question
It is really something serious that needs attention
Why the fuck am I the only one that ya'll attack
Send my ass away like I'm one of the rest?
Nigga, who you tryna test
I was built with hair coming out my chest
I'mma smack you off your momma's breast
Ground your ass for two weeks and punish her ass next
Everyday, I look up at the sky hoping I die because now you're the death of me
Getting offended at my way of living, calling it sinning while you're the one necking me
Go let the money and power confuse you and have it abuse you so I can live happily
Everyday, I look up at the sky hoping I die because now you're the death of me
I'm done playing games
Everywhere I go, I see the same fucking thing
Niggas beating women and children and giving em up, selling em for shit out on these dirty streets that ain't quite penicillin
So much in this world is messed up
Families losing kids from joyrides up in the family truck
There's nothing sadder than the fact that people matter but
We still keep claiming victim while we're
Letting bullets scatter
It's hard to speak your mind
To a public who's so damn defiant
Thinking they're so self reliant
That they can march around like Giants
Not hearing a damn word
As if they hadn't heard
That we're living on curbs, without sidewalks or birds, it's straight absurd
It's straight absurd, son
What's up with y'all?
Focus on somebody other than you
Fuck is you thinking, I'm on you like glue?
You got it twisted, I hope that you knew
That you signed with me your execution's at 2
Everyday, I look up at the sky hoping I die because now you're the death of me
Getting offended at my way of living, calling it sinning while you're the one necking me
Go let the money and power confuse you and have it abuse you so I can live happily
But everyday, I look up at the sky trying not to fly because you're all that's left of me

Packin'
02:37
|
|||
Look at me walking up in the club
Like "hey baby girl, what's up?"
Grammatically on the cusp
Massacre taciturn motherfuckers
Like pass and burn on these suckers
These niggas looking for luck and shit
Pack it in, pack it in
Hit the liquor, let it swim
On the gas so I'm winning
How the fuck you think I'm feelin'?
Don't mess with me; I'm a big shot
Got a lot of niggas trying to make my head pop
It's all good because I know something y'all forgot
Forgive me for reminding, you let me stop your thoughts
Same way I drop the top, I'll stop and make your panties hot
Most nights I treat you with respect, tonight I'd rather not
So you can't be mad at me if we go and get caught
And I'm going to go make that pussy pop on the bass drop
Watch me rap and track this shit
Sounds like I've been out practicing
Acting kinda fantastic bombastically static masterpiece
Niggas talk about culture shock
Then they talk about how you talk
On the radio - nah nah nah
In the venue though - y'all already know
Rolling through the Sway like I'm getting paid 'cos you know that's what I'm doing
Making money, stacking cash, meeting honies, smacking ass on the road to ruin
Runnin' up, smoking blunts, find your guts, beat them up, and call you later
Contemplating annihilating all these niggas talking shit, fuck the haters
I go [skree skree] in my ride
All you niggas see me skating by
[Tell Em] ay yo DJ hit the lights
Tell me where a nigga going to turn up for the night
Uh, oh - here I come
Clown of the class
Niggas lookin' round
Like I'm the one that shot they ass
I don't give a fuck so
I forget about the past
Nice guys finish first
So you know I finish last
Look at the things that you say to me
Look at how you want to play for free
You know that shit ain't okay with me
You need to learn some humility
You do not know my abilities
The things I can do are so riveting
You just found out I was interesting
Yo that's just part of the shitty me
Pack it in, pack it in
Hit the liquor, let it swim
On the gas so I'm winning
How the fuck you think I'm feelin'?
Fuck what heard,
I'm at the top of the mansion
I walk up into the bedroom
And then I start romancin
If her nigga get mad
There's something obvi lackin, but
Toss me the glock
And I'll get in on the action

Strugglin'
03:58
|
|||
I'm struggling, hanging by a thread
Trying every day to keep these bullets out my head
Fighting left and right just to keep myself fed
Holding onto nothing just in case I turn up dead
I'm struggling, reaching out to you
Feeling all of my lucidity turn into glue
Purposefully forgetting everything that I once knew
Hoping you can save me 'cos I don't know what to do
If there ain't no struggle, I don't want no trouble
I just want to crawl along the ashes, rock, and rubble
Make my merry way, to die another day
And maybe you'll stay and rescue me
Yo I'm struggling, leaving pain behind
Leaving everybody in a blast of brain to find
Instantly a stain to clean, you know what? Nevermind
If only I could find a place to find my peace of mind
I'm struggling, to keep up my pace
I can't look at mirrors without seeing my face
I'm so damn ashamed of my own jaded race
And by race I mean human, so don't you come through to displace
If there ain't no struggle, I don't want no trouble
I just want to crawl along the ashes, rock, and rubble
Make my merry way, to die another day
And maybe you'll stay and rescue me
I'm stuck, between a
Rock and a hard place
You can find love that's been
Spiked or perfectly laced
Patience is virtue
Or so they fucking say
Take me to the truth
And I'll take my life today
Sick, ill, and feeble,
I'm losing all my strength
Like constantly seeking sleep
But never knowing the length
I'd rather take a nap
Underwater if it'll have me thinking
Breathing breaths so sunk and shallow,
I may as well just be sinking
If there ain't no struggle, I don't want no trouble
I just want to crawl along the ashes, rock, and rubble
Make my merry way, to die another day
And maybe you'll stay and rescue me

Face Of A Killa
03:11
|

Got a body in backseat, cold
Let me tell you what the fuck is going on
Mothafucka tried to step to me, nah
And man was this pussy nigga wrong
Someone hit me up
Lemme know what's up
Told me you were perpetrating, infiltrating on the
Wrong side of town, cuz
Nigga ran his mouth,
So we went and shut em up
Dump the body in the river
Dump the body in the mothafuckin' lake
Now it's me behind the trigger
It's your turn to die in the wake
I was chilling at home and I was
Minding my business and now
I'm getting these calls
How there's "money to be makin',
And some risks to be taken,
So don't drop the ball"
I hung up the line,
Scooped up the nine and
Drove off in the ride
Faded, burning the sky
Thinking to myself
'This is an easy night'
I walk up, like ain't nobody special
Now everybody wanna test ya
Had my homies all fucked up
Niggas tryna get buck
Fuck police, I'll arrest ya
They were sitting like ducks in a row
And all of them, they had to go
We were straight blasting
No questions asked and
Now their blood covers the floor
Dump the body in the river
Dump the body in the mothafuckin' lake
Now it's me behind the trigger
It's your turn to die in the wake
I got the face of a killer
I got the face of a killer, nigga
I got the face of a killer
And it's your turn to die in the wake
I got the face of a killer
I got the face of a killer, nigga
I got the face of a killer
And it's your turn to die in the-

02:59
|

Yo, I’m coming with that sickness
Ay, somebody call a vet
Triple pistol packin’
Niggas see the triple threat
Running with my dogs
Logs is what you gon’ get
Fuck around with the squad and
You’ll get your ass hit, bitch
I just got the good hit
Doing all the hood shit
If I told you that I saw
Kendrick kill it on stage,
Would you feel it?
Hella on the grind
Hella on my time
If I don't rap a sequence
Too frequent, than it might just
Define
Too many niggas want my head
Too many niggas want me dead
With a burner to my chest
Tryna lay my ass to rest
Nigga never chase a check
Because the check never protects
Come and rid me of my stress
Horns on halos call me blessed
Bet bet bet on a nigga, gotta
Get get get on a nigga, if a
Fed fed fed ass nigga wanna
Test test test my trigger
He can get clapped with it
Snapped up in a bad finish
Bloody room, yo that's bad linens
Fixing to keep the corpse hidden
Directly atcha, catch a body like my name is Cardi
Flying through the miles so I make it to the party
I got hobbies so you know I keep my girlies naughty
And you know that my flow is the shit on a bitch so you don't gotta copy
Yo, I’m coming with that sickness
Ay, somebody call a vet
Triple pistol packin’
Niggas see the triple threat
Running with my dogs
Logs is what you gon’ get
Fuck around with the squad and
You’ll get your ass hit, bitch
Shake it up, shake it up, shake it up
You know I got money, I go and rake it up
She got the booty so she come and cake it up
Get to fighting and shit and we makin' up
I got a lot of attention, my baby knows
My extension, I am never in detention
But all of these niggas be stressin'
Staying like AIDS - they be testing'
I'm sending' a message
Coming at you with a fist full of pain
Coming at you with pistol to your brain
One up in the chamber, holdin' your name
Painted on it like the shit is engraved
Shackle a nigga and call him enslaved
Paint me up next to him, take all the blame
Slaughter the media, bask in the flames
10 magazines, y'all remember the name
Yo, I’m coming with that sickness
Ay, somebody call a vet
Triple pistol packin’
Niggas see the triple threat
Running with my dogs
Logs is what you gon’ get
Fuck around with the squad and
You’ll get your ass hit, bitch
All these niggas whine,
Bitching all the time
If you got a
Problem, lemme find
Put it next to mine,
All these mother-
Fuckers next in line,
Bout to pass the line
Make it rhyme
Y'all know I ain't lyin'
Kill the peace of mind
Columbine
Double suicide,
No one left inside
Figure that?
Same exact alignment
All on my assignment
Picture that
Blood up on the ceiling,
Floor, and now I'm feeling
Real revealing
Steal your wheels while
Tire peeling, dirty dealing;
How you feeling?

Back to the end of the bus
My dudes are all in a rush to
Combust and
Vocalize that we no longer trust
Niggas left and right be greedier
Than the needy
Leaving me the damage
But no gauze to hand the bleeding
Fuck is this BLM shit about?
KKK came to let the white pride stab around
Sounds like the usual "nigga
With the hard R", no stars
Asterisks to cut the ignorance so far
Why can't we bring it all back
Back to the ways before the terrorist attacks
Back before the lack of relaxing, asking
Daily if you'll live tomorrow
Maybe
Maybe not when a stray gunshot
Stops and gets caught while the witness let's the body rot...
To black
I miss the days in the limelight
Turning on a dime so that I can get my mind right
That's tight, but the shit that
I love and miss is outta sight
And located at new heights
Like the cookouts with the family friends in the summertime
Never had another rhyme or reason
Than to kiss you on the cheek before you're leaving
A last chance to see you breathing
So far, I'm 19;
Black kid having white dreams
Rap track, but the guy screams?
Fucked up no Visine
Who's winning is on my team
My niggas stand by me
I am always smiling 'cos
Shit talkers, they drive me
Walking up in the building with a
1-0 on my chest
Everyone knows I'm packing, don't you fucking disrespect cos I can
Wave the steel in front of you like it's your last meal and make you dance like seal, bitch
These stupid niggas tryna act grown
Even though skin tone
Sounds the same through the phone
'Sho 'nuff
Next time I see another,
Word to mother,
Imma cancel the motherfucker
And lay his body in the streets
For the news choppers to see
Except that's not me
Imma stay my lane G
And let my own life recede...
To black

Poison, Pain
04:00

I don't know the pain of your poison
And I know that you can't just wait it out
Cos if you do then you die
And you're foaming at the mouth
I don't know the pain of your poison
But I know that you can make it out
Cos I'mma do what I can
To keep my nigga from going South
Problematic nigga
With some drug problems
But niggas in the street
Ain't gonna solve em
I ain't gonna be there
To watch the flower blossom
So if I catch a packer passing,
You know I'mma cost em
Been discovered, undefined
Outta sight, outta mind
Contraband caught confined
Lunacy and drugs combined
Sorry, nothing left to find cos
Everything I find in time
So turn it back, relax at night
Find peace before you die
Know what the needle feel like
Know what that powder do
Know what the poison kill, I
Want you to power through
Every breaking point that you
Draw right into your blood
Feeling the sensation of
Energy lost in floods
Don't lose yourself in the moment
You own it, man do you want it?
Be honest, my honesty honestly
Just can't jump up on it
Taking tastes of the tonic
Prolonging the lofty lodging
Brown corrupting your brain,
Man corrupting his logic
Understand that a man
Can't go nowhere with no knowledge
But stay expected to polish
His common sense, abolish
His arrogance, demolish
His discontent to start up
And disconnect the farce,
Fuck the misdirect, I'm sorry,
No disrespect, yo
I'm just here to protect
A mother fucker fucking risking his neck
If I could just come correct
I'd like to fucking select
A book of hooking images
Splendidly showing vividness
Innocence, found within my brother
Separated by time, but from the same mother
Bringing it back, this shit stings like an ass slap
Sad sack busted out the nut of a bad dad
Fact happy nigga yanking triggers like it's Baghdad and
Rat traps are what they call my snaps when my gat blats
And y'all niggas act like mad cash is what we all had
We ain't had that
I don't know the pain of your poison
And I know that you can't just wait it out
Cos if you do then you die
And you're foaming at the mouth
I don't know the pain of your poison
But I know that you can make it out
Cos I'mma do what I can
To keep my nigga from going South

Guilty Fixtures

Pride is a mother fucker, best believe
Noses to the sky, yeah I can see that
And I know we're only human, but damn we bleed fast
But the human heart is sacred and mine won't go bad
What's the point of stressing when I wanna relax?
Worrying about a dollar, worried about the tax
Making it my business not to get my hopes dashed,
I'm back here counting blessings while y'all out counting cash
All those fucking racks will break a niggas back
Watching as you lag behind while they pick up the slack
Trash all over your name, letting it ride on wax
But when it comes to dirt, ain't no one riding for that
Pride is a mother fucker, best believe that
Noses to the sky, yeah I can see that
And I know we're only human, but damn we bleed fast
But the human heart is sacred and mine won't go bad
Fucking off a bill, blowing up in the club
Tossing every dollar - 1's, 5's, 10's, and dubs
Faded in the blur, thinking these bitches giving you love
When your closest ride or die niggas are only out for your blood
I'm straight up kicking back while you're kicking for packs
I could count a million racks but I ain't got the time
And I'd have that shit in safe if you dropped me a line
But I ain't going down out here for popping a nine, unless it's for mines
(Cos') Pride is a mother fucker, best believe that
Noses to the sky, yeah I can see that
And I know we're only human, but damn we bleed fast
But the human heart is sacred and mine won't go bad
I gotta recuperate, regain my thoughts
Maybe the 9 to 5 of thug life will pay me a lot
Pop shots at cops and not get caught
Rob my favorite store, reach over the countertop
Breaking off a nigga's guap, hopping 'round to parking lots
Cocking the chopper on a nigga whipping a full stop
Steal the wheels, feel the thrill, got my gangsta on lock
His problem now, y'all - like it or not
I'm the painter of the picture in the picture frame
The nigga with his name based around the game
And I'm telling you, I'm well on my way to fame
And I know I only really have myself to blame
Because the flame that is ambition
Should never interfere with your damn vision
Of reaching out for a bigger picture
But we're all built with guilty fixtures
Pride is a mother fucker, best believe that
Noses to the sky, yeah I can see that
And I know we're only human, but damn we bleed fast
But the human heart is sacred and mine won't go bad
(Hold up)
I gotta go recuperate, regain my thoughts again
Stop smoking, playing hearts, and slanging pot again
Holding onto my dream, whether I'm dying or not again
Boost up my inferno so I keep staying hot again
I could stay and rise, or watch you just fall and drop
But horizons over yonder got me feeling the top
If I sit and stay humble, I'll never pop off a shot
'Cos you don't gotta be a troubled soul to go through a lot
There's no picture in the picture frame
No tag for your name to claim
No call for your walk to fame
And you only have you to blame
Because the flame that is ambition
Should never interfere with your damn vision
Of reaching out for a bigger picture
But we're all built with guilty fixtures

The News

Some days I wanna catch the bus to visit places for vacation
Nostalgic faces leave they're traces in my brain's relation
So discarded are departed cards when you're deflated
Broken in the gutter, no family, no shoe laces
Pasted, spaced and copied, cold chopping
Crack cocaine in the membrane, no stopping
Amphetamine and extra fees, whole pizza, extra cheese
The cheddar better be here to become that much better
Veterans stuck without they W2's
Train derailment plastered over the news
Fuck a recession, the Greatest Depression is coming in sections
To show all y'all to follow the blues
Beggars are choosers, especially with Uzi's
But beggars be losing, fighting for foods
My brothas ain't grooving 'cos they ain't got voices
And beggars ain't moving 'cos they don't have choices
And well
That's the news
And well
That's the news
[News anchor 10 Mag parleys with his staff and crew to determine the sports, weather, and other currently distracting and unnecessarily showcased worldly events and continues back to the 10 o’clock news]
Scatterbrained boys wanna carry the torch,
Scatterbrained boys bragging all around court
Snitches know the way it goes, still they run to the door
But boys get scatterbrained right there on the porch
Mercy is a mystery flavor that most haven't had yet
They'll pluck you from your coupe and swoop that heater on you I bet
And if you're half as lucky, pray the jacker packs a Tec
Directly at your neck, no sign of respect as life reflects
My homies back in class all knew me as 10Mag
But my exes and currents currently call me tripod
I don't give a single damn about the fat stacks and the swag
If I wanted to die fresh to death, I'd eat a Tide pod
Maybe if I go to New York, they'll find they vibe hard
Maybe if I go to Cali, Compton will hear my song
Maybe if I stay in Washington, prospering til I'm gone,
Maybe I'll find a way to prove all of these niggas wrong
But well,
That's the news
And well
That's the news

Pressure
Say hello to Great Depression
Pressure
I'm hoping y'all can get the message
Know that I'm not famous, know that I'm not you
You can fight with violence, but can you fight with truth?
Look at your damn citizens, pumping them with venom and
Following all the trends then dying off in the end
Sending them to war that they never prepared for
But you ain't fighting with them, so what are you scared for?
War that never changes, war that only grows,
When will it be over, only Jesus knows
So keep claiming victims, keep hiding the lies
Keep counting suits while you go and sever the ties
Keep killing youth when they're only trying to climb
Keep taking the things that we're all just trying to find
Pulling all of the lines, watering down the wine
Making sure that the people beneath you are always blind
Pressure
Say hello to Great Depression
Pressure
I'm hoping y'all can get the message
From the jokes, excuses, and pitiful comments,
Like "grab her by the pussy" makes me want to vomit
Obama was better and I'mma be honest
That nigga was a black man and man, was he on it
I'm not trying to do this for the fame,
Just trying to open some eyes to show y'all who to blame
For the hate, the killings, the force, and the drilling
This motherfucker really thinks that we're winning
Sitting back, counting money and grinning
Until his ego grows and holds up the ceiling
But that's just the cards they've been dealing
Our president don't give a fuck about our feelings
I swear to God, I may not hold out your pain
But Pac was alive when he said "we need change"
And if this life we live continues to aim,
We'll end up back at the beginning again
Pressure
Say hello to Great Depression
Pressure
I'm hoping y'all can get the message

No Evidence

Evidently, a nigga ain't got no evidence
Relevant, finding shit just staring right at your inheritance
Bending it, lending you remnants of my intelligence
Menacing, the looks that you give me when I'm killing shit
Are you feeling this? Wheeling and dealing has me just sealing shit down
Got a ski mask, packing pistols, yo can you hear the sound?
When I walk inside the room, I don't fuck around
All these niggas always trying to kick me to the ground,
Can you get colder than this?
Bud five times bigger than the bud your plug got
Passing tabs and tripping fat, she loves the way it drops
Popping sloppy toppy top inside of Pop's drop top
Rhyming, flying, heiny sliding up and down on Papa's
Spin to win; sin is in, so get it in, nobody's stopping
Slobbing on the stick like a Saint Bernard, drippity-dropping
Hard to hold reality, duality got me retarded
Slap another tab of that and stack another hour on it
Let me be honest I know a lot of ebonics and
Though I sound real demonic I assure you I'm not robotic
I'm teaching like phonics and I'm killing like rockets and
I'm holding like pockets, bet I cocked all them choppers
Bet I run from the coppers, bet I straight up cold caught em
Bet I fuck on your daughter, bet I'm offering slaughter
But my lot's got a lot already going on; I'm steady with my shots
And niggas already know I fucking got em
Evidently, a nigga ain't got no we evidence
Relevant, finding shit, just staring right at your inheritance
Bending it, lending you remnants of my intelligence
Menacing, the looks that you give me when I'm killing shit
Are you feeling this? Wheeling and dealing has me just sealing shit down
Got a ski mask, packing pistols, yo can you hear the sound?
When I walk inside the room, I don't fuck around
All these niggas always trying to kick me to the ground,
Can you get colder than this?

I just wanted to take the time to say thank you to everyone who has checked out of reality long enough to listen to this album! It truly does mean a lot putting all of this together and given that some tracks span back two and three years, it feels phenomenal to be able to give them all back to you, the listener. Without the support of you and your fueling my drive to continue, I wouldn’t be anywhere close to where I am now, let alone alive to be really real with you, so thank you again. From the bottom of my heart, I appreciate it and I hope to see you bumping my future releases in your home, at your favorite club, on the road - the whole 9!
Yours forever,
10 Mag
