(verse 1)
Lately my, heart has been getting heavy
Ex fiancé, tryna end life already
I pray she, get better as the days pass
The rate she she going, she fuck around and crash
It’s never too late move past the past
Don’t let the, negative cast a shadow
Supposed to be my queen to a Pharoah
Depression, had your mental pressing
Buzzers to all the wrong floors
God will show you the right course
You're a gift straight from heaven
Be patient with the lessons
I promise things will get better
Just let your mind let up
Focus on life gettin’ set up
Let the world know the best up
Focus on the grind let the rest play catch up
Lay down for your truth and be the best one
I spent too many nights getting distracted
Had to quit taking my time for granted
Live my life the way I planned it
And so these fuck niggas to understand it
(Chorus)
Drank in one hand and smoke, in the other
Love and pain on my mind, still push further
On the real ones hold you down, like no other
Trust me when I tell you this is for the fucking culture
Drank in one hand and smoke, in the other
Love and pain on my mind, still push further
On the real ones hold you down, like no other
Trust me when I tell you this is for the fucking culture
(Bridge #1)
I guess I’m in it for the long haul
Up through the night, can’t fall
The wicked never get a peep
Write my thoughts for a release
Keep it to myself until I meet the piper
Finding the perfect crease
While blowing all these trees
I find peace in creating these ciphers
Yeah, I find peace in creating these ciphers
(verse 2)
Things ain't copacetic
I'm tryna cope with regret in my heart
The pain is startin' to set in
Making friends with demons
I lost the feel to write at the moment
After a minute I reap my omens
I became possessed by these spirits
Quite my mind to hear it
Can't let the temptations steer me away from my calling
Getting caught up with balling end up stalling my goals
Digging deep like a mole,
these trolls take a toll on my sanity
Why you gotta problem when I'm making a better man of me
Stop blowing trees
Leave home
Out on my own
Next thing you know people start tryna calling me a clone
I'm just focused on making songs
Art is not a mark of a beast
Just a way to eat
Don't get fooled by the calm demeanor
I can switch it up and do what beast do
My principals can't handle bullshit dude
Show you these hands are true
Yeah, show you these hands are true
(Chorus) 2x
Drank in one hand and smoke, in the other
Love and pain on my mind, still push further
On the real ones hold you down, like no other
Trust me when I tell you this is for the fucking culture
Drank in one hand and smoke, in the other
Love and pain on my mind, still push further
On the real ones hold you down, like no other
Trust me when I tell you this is for the fucking culture
Hol' on
(verse 3)
Picasso with the flow
Kickin down the doe
They'll name you John
This ain't no gospel
But a spell sicker than sickle cell
Sending waves out like graham bell
Seeking to be king like Alexander the Great
Can't forsake my lessons so
I can get the blessing
Standards of a young man expressin
His life through lyrics so, the people
Get inspired by the good, not the evil
I create music for people to eat to
Life is deeper, than surface value
Read between the lines, don’t get down boo
(Bridge #2)
I guess I done saw through it all
Been through the fights, can’t fall
The wicked never get any sleep
Fight the law for my release
Lead me through my feels until I meet the piper
Finding the perfect crease
While blowing all the trees
(Chorus)
Drank in one hand and smoke, in the other
Love and pain on my mind, still push further
On the real ones hold you down, like no other
Trust me when I tell you this is for the fucking culture
Drank in one hand and smoke, in the other
Love and pain on my mind, still push further
On the real ones hold you down, like no other
Trust me when I tell you this is for the fucking culture
Hol' on
(Outro)
Ticking like a bomb ready to spark the fuse
If all my minds in harmony then I can not lose
