Intro:
I remember momma lectures tryna keep me outta trouble
And those nights that dad had grinding just ta make a couple dollars
Back when ignorance was bliss, and I ain’t worry bout a thing
Man I had this dream since then that I been chasing with a
Hook:
Hunnit on the dash
Had to floor the gas yeah
Mind be racin' fast cuz I’m runnin' from my past yeah
Tryna get the bag
Stack it to the ceiling yeah
Ain't no better feelin than to live it to the max
Verse 1:
As long as I be living, breathing, homie I got hope
Swear man love can be deceiving, it can leave you more than broke
Every coin has got 2 side, gotta choose how to go forth
Have a couple people doubting, I just really wanna show em
That
I can make it ta the top
Homie I don’t really give a fuck
Bout these opinions, I don’t put stock
In what they say, homie Ima go rock
Just want my dad ta be proud of his son
Want all my momma’s worries ta be gone
Tryna put my fam and my whole city on
Won’t be content with a regular job
Had an infatuation with the stars
So man the sky wasn’t ever my limit
Boy if I said it then know that I meant it
There ain’t no option man ima go get it
Never gon let up
I hafta do this
If nothin else, just ta go and ta prove it
To myself that the struggles really worth it
S’why I be swerving
With a
Hook:
Hunnit on the dash
Had to floor the gas yeah
Mind be racin' fast cuz I’m runnin' from my past yeah
Tryna get the bag
Stack it to the ceiling yeah
Ain't no better feelin than to live it to the max
Verse 2:
This ones for the dreamers
The ones that's feining for beamers
The ones that's busting they ass
The ones that's filling them beakers
The loners
The go getters
The ones who don’t know better
The ones with a will ta win, whos pushing thru any weather
Yo, everybody gotta dream, but are you ready ta make it ya passion
Are you willing, ready ta take action
Gon take a lot ta make all of this happen
This shit is taxing, but I just love it
Give it my max cuz I’m tryna run it
Used ta get blunted ta run from my problems
Now I face everything head on, I want it
There ain’t nobody that can telling me nothin
Already faced all the lowest of lows
Unmotivated, had nowhere ya go
Back ta the wall, felt so lost and alone
But I recovered my moral compass
Found my direction, I had ta address it
Ready and willing, man this ain’t no gimmick
I know where I’m headed and got a
Hook:
Hunnit on the dash
Had to floor the gas yeah
Mind be racin' fast cuz I’m runnin' from my past yeah
Tryna get the bag

Why don't you hope in my ride
We can skrt off in the sunset, I just need your reply

Baby girl you look so fine, ya you mean everything
Always running thru my mind, I'm talkin everyday

I hope that you be okay with a late night stroll
We could lay under the stars while I just hold you close
And forget about our past, and the worries you hold
[Verse]
I’m tryna take you far away
To a foreign place
So you could let go of all ya problems for a solid day
Show you down a new path, I won’t lead you astray
Take you out ta breakfast, eggs Benedict with the hollandaise
Dripping
Lost in the sauce, yeah we be dripping
Now we tripping
Off of the green
You know it's lit and baby listen
I know you had your fuck ups with other guys
But I be different
I promise there’s more than meets the eye
I ain’t gon lie, I got a past too
Learned ta be liable for my actions, I had too
But now I’m apt to
You know this past due
What about you girl, I got a question I have to
Ask you

Constantly fighting a battle that's headed uphill
You know I got you whenever, yeah this a done deal
Baby understand I ain’t playin with you

Cut You Off

[Verse 1: T. Chandy]
I'm just tryna figure somethin out
Last couple days been followed by a thunder cloud
Seems like every direction that I be turning
I been falling short of perfect
I just wanna make my family proud
Had my ups and downs, my lows and highs
I rolled the loud and chucked the dice
And fought like Tyson
Knew I always had this fire, you could call me Iroh
Made a promise ta myself that ima ball like ISO ah!
Understand-
I ain't more than just a man
Tryna figure out the life that's in the palm of his hand
If these demons wanna tango, then I'm ready ta go dance
Told my homies ima make it, I ain't got no back up plan
Hell naw
-There ain't no chance in hell
That Ima go and live my life without amassing wealth
S'ima take and use my talents, man it won't be shelved
And they can never change my will cuz man I know myself
Keep it real tho
Keep it real I ain't messing with the frauds
Had some people turn they back on me, I see thru they facades
I ain't got no time to care no more if you had done me wrong
Had ta let it go
All the pressure from holding on gave me vertigo
Guess I took that shit too personal
And now at least I know your true colors
All I got ta say is adios
Cuz now I gotta go
[Hook: CazMcMind]
I gotta let you go
I gotta cut you off
I can't have you come around me
I just be moving on
Said I gotta let you go
I gotta cut you off
I can't have you come around me
I just be moving on
[Verse 2: T. Chandy]
Sometimes-
Waking up's the hardest thing to do
When the world is on ya shoulders, you can't even think ta move
Everybody and they momma comin to you with they drama
Tryna calm em Dale lama, but they really test your fuse
See that's when you gotta find your center
Realize all the hate around you is just environmental
Why'd you choose to be a product
And subdue to the piranhas
Instead of goin against the grain so you don't live your life in wallow
Just know
Everything that glitters ain't gold
Gotta let them situations unfold
As tough as it is
Everybody gotta live
So we gotta let go of all the things that we can't control
Count all ya blessings
Stop with stressing
Every time you fail, just consider that a lesson
See cuz as long as tomorrow is a major possibility
You shouldn't let today- go to rot with negativity
What!?
Said, it all comes down to a choice
There are things- in this world that we really can't avoid
But why let the others manifest and stifle all your joy?
Gotta ta let it go
Cuz shit gon happen, man ya never know
Can't take it too personal, everybody got they bad moments
It's on you ta get back up and go
Said it's time ta go
[Hook: CazMcMind]
I gotta let you go
I gotta cut you off
I can't have you come around me
I just be moving on
Said I gotta let you go
I gotta cut you off
I can't have you come around me
I just be moving on
{Verse 3: CazMcMind]
I was moving till she hit me with the red light, stop sign
Had to slow down, take a minute, get my head right
Alright
Now I’m back in
Get to rapping
CazMc, kill a track and, leave em panting
But she don’t even love me, she just coping a feel
Got my feelings feeling like they in fountain of fear
But ain’t no floating from here
Bitch Ima take it and steer
Cry me an ocean you can’t wash away the shut that you did
[Bridge: CazMcMind]
Girl don’t you string me along
Ima go set the alarm
Girl can’t you see this is wrong
Girl can’t you see this is wrong
Girl don’t you string me along
Ima go set the alarm
Girl can’t you see this is wrong
Girl can’t you see this is wrong
[Hook: CazMcMind]
I gotta let you go
I gotta cut you off
I can't have you come around me
I just be moving on
Said I gotta let you go
I gotta cut you off
I can't have you come around me
I just be moving on

[Hook]
Man I used to feel so lost but, now I know my way around
Cut some people off, man I’m sorry but you weigh me down
I was in the dark
Found my spark
Started following my heart
Yeah I’m takin off, no I cannot stay around
Cuz life is a movie, gotta pick ya own role
Either climb ya own ladder, or dig ya own hole
Swear ta God, sometimes man this life’s too cold
But you gotta keep ya head up, cuz shit you never know
[Verse]
I grew up a lone wolf
Always straying from the pack
Cuz they propaganda bull, man I be focused on them stacks
Now my ex be sending pics
Constantly blowing up my snap
Pressure weighing on my head
Just lemme calm down and relax
I just took one to the dome- and-
Now my eyes low
Blowing smoke up out the window, then we down a bottle
Living life out by the chapter, Issa fuckin novel
Lookin up into the sky, we tryna be our idols
So homie this the blueprint
Yeah the dream is lucid
Tryna live a Laavish life, let's turn it to a movement
Got the team together
Feelin better
Like a mouse I'm after the cheddar
Tryna get it flipping words just like a suplex
[Prehook]
Cuz this paranoia’s ruthless
Got me feelin a type of way
But I can’t let these minutes and second all go to waste, I’m tryna follow the light, but they throwing all types of shade
I gotta get the bigger picture in frame
And make a change
[Hook]
Man I used to feel so lost but, now I know my way around
Cut some people off, man I’m sorry but you weigh me down
I was in the dark
Found my spark
Started following my heart
Yeah I’m takin off, no I cannot stay around
Cuz life is a movie, gotta pick ya own role
Either climb ya own ladder, or dig ya own hole
Swear ta God, sometimes man this life’s too cold
But you gotta keep ya head up, cuz shit you never know
[Verse]
Reminiscing bout the days we ain’t have no stress
Now we feelin that pressure cuz we tryna meet ends
And I’m tryna make M’s
Figures bigger than imagined
Gotta have em
So we plotting in a way ta reach them
I remember when the only thing that mattered was the love
Nowadays everybody comin asking for a plug
I been in the mood ta sock em in they socket
Blow a fuse like NASA rockets
Call me Curry cuz I’m feigning for a dub
I ain’t fuckin with you scrubs, they ain’t never on my level
-Caught in arguments between the angel and the devil
Facing all of these temptations, getting hard ta make decisions
Think I need ta find my rhythm
Gotta hold myself together
[Prehook]
Cuz this paranoia’s ruthless
Got me feelin a type of way
But I can’t let these minutes and second all go to waste, I’m tryna follow the light, but they throwing all types of shade
I gotta get the bigger picture in frame
And make a change
[Hook]
Man I used to feel so lost but, now I know my way around
Cut some people off, man I’m sorry but you weigh me down
I was in the dark
Found my spark
Started following my heart
Yeah I’m takin off, no I cannot stay around

Either climb ya own ladder, or dig ya own hole

Shooting past the stars, I'm tryna land on the moon
Start takin over on mars, and colonizing it too
Man you ain't heard of the kid? Guess you been outta the loop
These rappers talkin bout lean, but homie I got the juice
Yes homie I'm in pursuit
Of everything that I wanted
I break a leg on every track, ima be running the gauntlet
Four eyed, man I got the optics
The vision gon be accomplished
Just wanna pull up in a ghost, y'already know that I'm haunted
(Skrrt)
So bring it back now
Ima come at everybody, I don't back down
Man, ain't nobody wanting beef, but this a cash cow
So, ima take em all ta hell, that's a man down
Yeah, I heard you spitting all them facts, that's a bad sound
But I can't keep it on the low, what you mad now?
Heard that you sold a homie out, Goddamn how?
Your struggle really makes me laugh, like a sad clown
Bow down
To the man, the myth, the legend
I been a King, all my competition be peasants
Nobody measure's up to me, I really feel like the ruler
Man everybody goin H.A.M., well then I'm goin prescutto
Aiming for numero uno
Cuz I'm the one, I need the top spot
Tryna fuck the game up, ain't no way ima get cock blocked
Make a couple milli cop my parents matching droptops
Killing competition, man I swear this just an onslaught
[Hook]

Lately I been really tryna find my way
Sick of always feelin low, I had ta make a change
People round assumin, but won't ever feel my pain
Iss okay tho, Ima make sure I get thru the day
Homie lately I been really tryna find my way
Sick of always feelin low, I had ta make a change
People round assumin, but won't ever feel my pain
Iss okay tho, Ima make sure I get thru the day
Man I swear I work my ass off
Let me breath yo, back off
Lookin at me crazy, like they trippin off some bath salts
Gotta take my hat off
-Ta all the people tryna bring me down
Cuz all you did was give me fuel ta reach where I'm at now
[Verse 1]
Gaddamn, I hafta smile
Well shit iss been a while
Tables turnin, bridges burnin, man this shit is wild
Peaks and valleys, ran thru alleys, shiftin gears up now
I grabbed the reigns, and pulled my weight, I won’t throw in the towel
My squad is in my corner
I started gettin focused
Feel like myself again, and errybody start ta notice
Had lost path for a second, man I ain’t have no motive
Now on my grind, putting in that time, I feel like I’m chosen
Sick and tired of their comments
Man they ain’t never had context
I mean I’m just being honest
This shit ain’t notn but a process
I put my mind to the matter
And now I’m climbing the ladder
Reaching up high, ta the sky
Shootin past the moon land on Saturn
[Hook]
Lately I been really tryna find my way
Sick of always feelin low, I had ta make a change
People round assumin, but won't ever feel my pain

-Ta all the people tryna bring me down
Cuz all you did was give me fuel ta reach where I'm at now
[Verse 2]
On the rise like an incline, yes I’m inclined to go farther
Life’s all about risk
Tryna make a milli, put on for my city, then ima bust down and flood out my wrist
N’other words ima be timeless
Tryna build up my own legacy
Be a better me
Cope with it all thru these bars and then layer the melodies yeah I gotta keep the same energy, when I flow, y’already know how it go
Pack up a wood if they think they want smoke
Up in the clouds after takin a toke
Sleeping on me, then you better get woke
On my own wave like Poseidon
Star like Orion
I been out minin for days- cuz coal under pressure make diamonds
Breaking my silence
[Hook]
Lately I been really tryna find my way
Sick of always feelin low, I had ta make a change
People round assumin, but won't ever feel my pain
Iss okay tho, Ima make sure I get thru the day
