THIS YEAR! Lyrics by Ian Kelly

Zion V: The Ballad of Charles Douthit

2020

[Intro: Ian Kelly]
Come on cool down now
Come fall back
[Verse: Ian Kelly]
Let me break it down before I sell this art
Rolling through the hood like Nino Basquiat
I see a kid I used to work with on the block
Trying to figure out if Tetris really work or not
I just pray he makes it home while making new decisions
Back in the day I saw an atheist in True Religions
The town is changing in the sky I see a couple ribbons
And wonder why nobody pays attention
Trippin'
I found out my cousin back in prison
Listen
He told me don't do nothing different
Just stay on these niggas necks we know what life is missing
Push through
Feeling reborn screaming what's new
Truth
Like ghost was in the booth
I ain't trying to fall victim to green like St. Patrick
Dreams pinching me all throughout the madness
I'm just trying to find new ways to find balance
Cause I been on this tightrope trying to gain the right scope
Aim stealy
Start hitting these open corners like I was Andretti
With one eye can see it all but don't call me Fetty
Unless we talking growing chains then my pocket heavy
Cause [?] stopped paying me on an empty belly
Get up off your ass oby
I'm in the mirror talking to myself, losing is the last choice
Buckle up for crash course
Life can hit you hard but you just got to bounce back boy
I'm 'bout my groceries, I used to be a bag boy
Now I'm in my bag boy
I used to sell dub sacks and get quite paranoid
This is me paraphrasing
Me I got parapalegics feeling my new statements
Your new favorite if you're peeping all the new flavors
Just savor, I like to call it the juice
We got it jumping like it's alley-oops
Cash ruling everything around me you should get a scoop
Every point made from your boy and don't need a hoop
Re-up then re-coup
Me, I'm just one of one
Baby ain't no redo
I been listening to Ray so yup I can't see you
This is plan A so nope I can't B you
Knuck if you buck
We still shine like a diamond even if it feels rough
Life ain't a game but we always level up
You ain't never found love, you ain't never found trust
I swear I light it then I put it right in the air
Been through enough to the point that bullshit gets no care
I stare with no fear we just keeping it clear
The lane I'm coming through all this year
You gotta see
