It’s How We Live

Progression

Like I never left

This what it sound like when I started off tracin my prints

And been standing on my morals and principles since

Had to put so many situations through the rinse

Cause I knew washing my hands of it was apart of the script

Never switched up on the set

Yeah they’ll never forget

The way that Dawgo brought the penmanship

The way that Dawgo made it limitless

To stay true to ya blessings and ya written gifts

Yeah don’t caught up on the critic shit

Be balanced in how you move

Don’t just fall in line

Somеthing that I had to live and breathe

All thе time

Cause I knew what I had was truly divinely assigned

And when I stepped outta that I went on dark declines

Yeah

But Fasting and prayer

Truly sharpened my mind

Also being isolated and takin my time

Couldn’t live off throwbacks

Always thrived wit creation

Left incisions in time

Off these pivotal statements

Grew from within

Progression through beats

Time after time

I played for keeps

Never said why

Always said we

Switched up the coast

Still keep it me

Grew from within

Progression through beats

Time after time

I played for keeps

Never said why

Always said we

Switched up the coast

Still keep it three

Adding up these W’s I can’t lie

Extended gratitude to every resource that

I’m blessed by

Decade in still placing these verses like the landmines

Always was a rare kind

My catalog some rare finds

There’s not a feat I can’t climb

That’s why it’s constantly focused as I’m risin up

Take the label

Diversify and hide it in trusts

Understand

It’s nothin to show my hand

We know it’d be on brand

My nigga that’s all I’m sayin

Don’t play yaself

You know My class different

Boy go head and re-weigh yaself

Back to the basics

Matthew C. still decoding the matrix

Tappin out from social sites

And learning how to embrace it

One of one at all costs

Only way I knew to be

This the type of shit

That I wish Hook was here to see

Elevating bloodlines

By owning all our heat

I told you that I’m at it

Until the next time we meet

Grew from within

Progression through beats

Time after time

I played for keeps

Never said why

Always said we

Switched up the coast

Still keep it me

Grew from within

Progression through beats

Time after time

I played for keeps

Never said why

Always said we

Switched up the coast

Still keep it three
