Day One

[Verse 1]

I was sitting lackadaisical in the back of the class

Massive fan of the bars by Kendrick lamar

And sparse beats that lacked pace any hearts they could grasp

We just loved to clutch on to the art of our stars

Progressing every day with the rap that I wrote

When I met J cole and told him I rapped cold

He was like oh word then he laughed it off so quick

No joke, true shit was young and so foolish

Treated schooling like sewage totally useless

Was too obsessed with producing new music

Desperate to impress through fake expression

Peer pressure was a snake on the right direction

Stupid excuses for work not sent in

Resin untouched in my violin case sin

On my mind with a little bit of rhyming hits

Nice kisses from the woman that I live with on the skin


[Hook]

Back then I was so far gone

So far gone, so far gone

Now I got the whole world on lock

For all of my music about to drop

[Verse 2]

Let me tell you a story about my old life

Some of it’s true you decide for yourself

I used to deal drugs on a regular basis

Back while all of my friends were faking their faces

Flagrant vices up in the sinus

Eyes dilated times were the nicest

My life laced with high risk

High heel shoes lie, deal who you knew

My youthful pupils had brutal funerals

My iris was weak from all the abuse

High as a kite every single night

Until I met the woman who saved my life

A maze of concern you averted quickly

The person with me stopped the curse within me

Thinly escaped the ultimate cost

Nearly relapsed and died I was fortunate god


[Hook]


[Verse 3]

I was sprinting in my city for a little bit of glory

Athletic but four people never looked back and saw me

Appalled at no first place always second to eighth

I could not tolerate getting no trophy or plate

But as far as rap goes my goals are bigger than Gam B’s

Crafting hits in the pantry to sell quicker than fancy

My family needs to know that I am going to win a grammy

And you need to understand me that I do not need a plan B

Travelling away from the land where I have been

Unravelling the sight of the pineal gland

Taking the eyes right to the divine land

No need to align I just hope your inspired

The punters in my city they predict my demise

But with my message and flow I will never capsize

I just write for the love, one day to provide

Confide with you my life through rhyme
