HOOK:

More

More than a trace

Of love

Today

You made it easy last night

To give myself away

Maybe I'm

Mirwin:

Just a young boy with a dollar and a dream

What glitters ain’t gold, everything ain’t what it seems

Too busy pocket watchin’, got me livin’ half asleep

But it’s hard to wake up when all these bills ain’t cheap

I’m caught between the cost of high hopes and high rent

Feel like I’m the victim and life is like the tyrant

Remember days I thought about ending it in private?

Temptation singin’ to me high notes, I hear the sirens

Tryna make it biggie is an еveryday struggle

Stuck inside a systеm always focused on the hustle

Flexin’ is a blessing, I’ve been workin’ my muscles

So i’m listenin’ to Dot, sit down, be humble

If you bet against me, I’m finally here to collect

The pressure ain’t a problem, feel their foot on my neck

All the tired metaphors, you’d better give ‘em a rest

But for me I’d rather write until I breathe my last breath, that’s facts

HOOK:

More

More than a trace

Of love

Today

You made it easy last night

To give myself away

Doc Heref:

DOC

Ok

Uh

Runnin' like Mike John, cleats on flame

Wonderin' when Eminem remembered the name (Let's go)

Never had 12 on me but passed like –

About to blow propane, they don't know bro pain (Ok ok ok)

More bounce to the ounce, more stuffed than the couch (Couch)

Imma make 'em feel me, heavy on the ouch (Ouch)

Invested in a steel piece, heavy in the pouch (Boom)

Movin' something filthy but steady on the route

Too cool to be arguin', we could go all the way

I hate when I got more to say but all the thoughts fade away (Fade away)

I don't know what type of control that is

I don't know if it's rizz or something so wicked (I don't know)

Peace to all the real ones and the ill ones

I'm tryna heal something, man go build something (Real)

Prepared for when the bills come and the fear come

If God got the wheel I don't need to steer none

INTERLUDE:

Doc Heref: Feel smoother for me, I'll keep going

Ya know what I'm sayin'? Just to see how smooth it feel

Mirwin: Yeah, I won't stop it

Doc Heref: Yeah long as you catch it. Keep all of this. Uh

I want to dream

I want to love

I want to sob

I want to feel pissed at everything that’s wrong with the world and then work like heck to change it

I want to live with that beautiful urgency knowing my life isn’t someone else’s currency to be spent

But this?

This isn’t that

So tell me why do we, why do you, settle for this cheap, hollow imitation of life when the miracle is right in front of us?

Mirwin:

I wonder what I’d do, if I ever lost my voice

Would I put down the pen and pad if I didn’t have a choice?

Would I give up making beats if only I could hear the notes?

Would I upload all these songs I’ve wrote, if no one heard my quotes?

Don’t chase the fame and fortune, if it comes that’s not important

Every verse’s from my organs now I’m linin’ up the corpses

Dissectin’ records, recognize these sixteens are my fortress

Repackage average syllables and paint them in to portraits

They bumpin’ this like CD skips, got a feeling I was born for this

Pocket aces made for greatness so you know I gotta risk

Raise the pot or raise the stakes, the bar’s higher than cannabis

You’re smokin’ while I’m focused, watch me it jump it like Duplantis

So I step up to the mic, just like it’s my grand finale

I'm never wastin’ words, it’s like I’m crossin’ off a tally

Did it all with no diploma still I’m rockin’ like the valley

This the dropout with no cop outs, if you mute me come get at me
