State of Mind Lyrics by Johnny Go Deep

Canvas

2017

[Verse 1]
Microphone check
1, 2, 1, 2
I got next on these niggas
Man I thought you knew
The game been lackin' lyricism
So I came right through
I’m like Jordan, ‘97
Game 5 with the flu
Cuz I’m the illest
I really need some medication
This shit is simple
It’s not even my occupation
I put the work in
And my results keep escalatin'
I’m on my way up
Guess you can say I’m elevatin'
I stay humble
Touchdown and never fumble
I throw my competition over the top like Royal Rumble
They had to go
Because we on a different level
The want the easy way out
But me I never settle
I come through
Kick this like kung-fu
Chillin’ with my crew
There’s nothin' we can’t do
I’m so consistent
Bad Boy like Piston
I take these words and speak them into existence
Go Deep

[Chorus]
You gotta go deep
It’s just my state of mind, uh

Uh, uh
Said you gotta go deep
It’s just my state of mind

[Verse 2]
Death is creepin’
Demons talk to me while I’m sleepin'
They grim reapin’
Tryna stop me from what I’m reachin'
But I keep preachin'
Cuz ain’t no way they gonna stop me
I keep my foot up on the pedal
Somethin' like a cop be
I never copy
I come out swingin' like I’m Rocky
Don’t call me cocky
Cuz things can get a little rocky
This shits amazin'
I’m like a torch I keep it blazin'
My hand is wavin'
Spit hot shit like extra cajun
These niggas lazy
They might as well be pushin' daisies
They tryna kill my vibe
But never will it even phase me
I keep it pushin’
I’m never seein' central bookings
I’m too focused
Put in the work when no one’s lookin'
That’s dedication
I go deep like penetration
Feel like I’m racin'
With all these dreams that I be chasin'
Swear I’m the greatest
I’m like Ali when he be dancin'
I’m goin' for the knockout
Lay 'em out on the Canvas
What up?

[Chorus]
Gotta go deep
It’s just my state of mind, uh

Uh, uh
Said you gotta go deep
It’s just my state of mind
