Basically Lyrics by Akajou

Basically

2024

Reach for the light during the darkest times
Listening to the wind so I can hear the chimes
AK just getting started, tryin to reach my prime
I just decided that I want my album font lime
Yeah
And I'm a hermit when it's crunch time
I clear my plate and get back in the lunch line
It slaps when you use facts for a punch line
And I got the kinda vibe that makes ya soul climb
Yeah
Been tryna loosen up the soul ties
So I can sharpen up the vision as the time flies
Cos niggas been crashin out and I want no ties
But hеy I understand, cos I ain't always been wise
Yeah
I know this world is a thin linе
Full of battles and I'm out here tryna win mine
From many miles away I can smell the big lies
I do it all, so Ion really need the big guys
Even if that means I gotta be a small fry
You can conquer anything, as long as you try
People say they play my songs
And it makes them cry
That's because they feel the pain and what it implies

That's because they feel the pain and what it implies

Yeah
Every song feels like a holy grail
I had to re-route
So many demons on my trail
Any weapon formed against me
Gon always fail
Eversince my Dad died
I ain't been doin well
Tuh
I spend my days tryna keep calm
I've become a workaholic
Tryna evolve, Tryna re-invent
The old me gotta dissolve
Gotta make the blue print, so that we ball
So that I gotta little room and I can freefall
I gotta stay disciplined, so I can teach ya'll
Thinking of clever ways that I can reach ya'll
I got the pieces to the puzzle, let me install
Everybody want the praise, they wanna enthrall
Once you see the bullshit, that's when they blackball
That's why I do my own shit, I got the wherewithal
Sharp pains in my back, I was against the wall
I needed encouragement, I wasn't getting calls
Wasn't getting anywhere chasin waterfalls
I used a pen for the pain, no Tylenol
I'm all action, no talk, I ain't flappin jaws

I'm all action, no talk, I ain't flappin jaws

Yeah
Gotta forgive, cos I'm tryna live
I'm dedicated to the music, work it like a gig
Shoutout to the loyal ones that never reneged
I can't wait to pay em back when I make it big
Tuh
I recently had to make a switch
Fixed the pitch
Yeah, I'm on my Gang Starr shit
Full clip
And I got a pocket full of wit
I'm hella private
So this is how I gotta vent
On the ridge
Now it's time for me to cross the bridge
Another helping on my plate
I gotta make it fit
Enjoy Life
Remove the lid, so you can take a swig
I bet you gon look back
And be proud you did
And as the time ticks
They gon jump ship
They gon treat you like a habit
That they tryna kick
But don't quit
Opposition means you da shit
If it don't make you grow
Then it's time to split
Yeah
Self doubt makes you lose your grip
And you take steps back everytime you trip
And if the armor chip
Stick to the script
Basically you'll find peace when you livin strict

Basically you'll find peace when you livin strict
