THC 17' Lyrics by Matthew C.

Freehand

2017

The day Real's back in style
It's goin be an Armageddon
Due to false realities we have on earth
Those days are dreaded
As we yearn for more acceptance
We lose sight in what we need
And start focusing on selfish decisions
Like fame and greed
Stamped by the world as entertainers
Instead of creators
What makes us lesser than portrait painters
While comin up wit quotes and pouring soul
Through the moments we gotta cope
To Reach somebody who fallin
Is all we could ever hope

A punchline prophet
I mastered guidin the golden gloves
Back when I was rich
Cause I didn't how much golden was
I was just a Yank on a team wit my niggas
When I could kill it off the tee
Or when coaches would pitch it
Figures that's why I'm different
I had to flip the pitchin
Through knowledge filled situations
I chose to sit back and listen
While hopin to gain some wisdom
And conquer this hateful system
I'm still just a man
Just a man tryna paint his pictures
Word to hookah
These be my scriptures
I wish I could cite em quicker
Got headaches from cryin
Cause I ain't ever goin see my sister
Again
Damn
Lost in a pen
As I try and balance my sins
Hopin heaven's my final stop
Like some movie credits
The end
Although this the beginning
And still in the early phases
The valley instilled the patience
That help me push through the mazes
The trials and tribulations
With power of bein gracious
Built aspirations of one day
Expanding this brand to greatness
To greatness
The statements
And patience
Helped shape this
To greatness
The statements
And patience
Helped shape this

Always had an aim not to mimic things
Continuous pains in my brain
Endless guillotines
I ain't Tryna be
Somebody that I'm not
Archaic in my ways
It made me focus a lot
To the top it is from here
My dawgos is on the rise
While detectin anybody
Whose daily face a disguise
Through everything we survive
In murky waters we dive
Slowly push through the trenches
THC help us thrive

My walk of life isn't finished
So I only scribble chapters
With a premature vision
Like I'm kin of Raven Baxter
Feel good flows
Yeah
This is what I've been after
Not the money in the bank
But the greatness atop the ladder
Pour it all on the canvas
And paint
No matter how they feel
Self driven every written
No minute that they could take the wheel
To steer the movement
That We started as teens
Through every tragedy seen
We battled
Still we here now
Refuse to let anything or anyone
Bring the dream down
Kill em wit the vivid lyrics
Visions and serene sounds
That’s point blank
Like a mamba shot
Crazy after 8
I recognized that my passion
Is when my songs would drop
And Hearin people tell me that I touch em within
Especially when I ain't seen em
Bein stuck in this pen
Although the record is clean
They gotta hear the bars slammin
Breakin through the cage
While battlin demons
Lord you was plannin

Always had an aim not to mimic things
Continuous pains in my brain endless guillotines
I ain’t tryna be somebody that I’m not
Archaic in my ways it made me focus a lot
To the top it is from here
My dawgos is on the rise
While detecting anybody who’s daily face a disguise
Through everything we survive
In murky waters we dive
Slowly push through the trenches
THC help us thrive

Always had an aim not to mimic things
Continuous pains in my brain endless guillotines
I ain’t tryna be somebody that I’m not
Archaic in my ways it made me focus a lot
To the top it is from here
My dawgos is on the rise
While detecting anybody who’s daily face a disguise
Through everything we survive
In murky waters we dive
Slowly push through the trenches
THC help us thrive

Writing these sad songs
Gettin mad respect
Happy I know so much pain
Can you imagine that
Remember postin on the CMZ
Just waiting for a sign
Before I understood my destiny
Wit these lines
So now the tunes are fine
Overtime we've been shiftin
Doin all this overtime
As we grind with consistence
Rhyme with persistence
Our Lines show the difference
It's time to make it known
That the throne's where we're sittin
