[Verse]

First take

When the sun goes down and the stars align

I'm sure you’ll find a constellation for your mind

Before this time when I was unsure to rhyme

I looked inside, myself solidified my spine

Concluded crime thank God I'm alive

Not doing time my life I analyzed

I found my deck of cards and i played 'em right

I used to play the fool, now I play like mike

I learned a lot, turned into a student of the music

Became dedicated learned to love and pursue it

Now I do it I do it like nike with the check did

Check this I'm blessed kid my rhyme scheme relentless

In my pocket I see dead people on some sixth sense shit

If your hating then you’re senseless just peep my ascension

Uh, writers block can't block me on the mic I’m Charles Barley

Y'all are terrible comparable to no kemosabe

In my area, and to the kids can you live vicariously

Through me, til i have enough power to pursue these

Dreams of mine, until then I'm gonna take my time

Time is money don’t try waisting mine

I wish I could just chill under graceful skies

Remain complacent lay back and place these rhymes

All in your mind, its like im trapped inside this endless ride

On course of space and time of course I ain't lyin’

Well I'm line like 180 not like what our government's been doing to Haiti

Yo it's crazy, play this in the future to baby if I die

And tell em that "yo dad was hella wavey

Living life on the edge damn this cat was crazy

Never ever played it safely like a gun thats off safety

And I hope you see what he’s seen

'cause he dropped Equinox when he was only 17

He put his mind to his dreams and his dreams turned to scenes

Of real life”

When I was younger I was just wanted my stripes

Doing shit that I know both my parents didn't like

Doing shit even though i knew it wasn’t right

I thank God, that he let me turn that darkness to light

Turned my wrongs to rights I look at days and nights

The same enticing feeling on brain when writing lyrics

If life's a game then i gained the right experience

If I'm insane then sanity ain't one of my goals

Lately I've been facing tribulations and some trials

My dark and light was fighting this is Rey versus Kylo

I let you take a journey from my mind into my soul

I recommend you listen to this project with your eyes closed

Been doing this since I was 5'5, Cinco De Mayo

I recommend you listen to this project with your eyes closed

I let you take a journey from my mind into my...soul
