Path To Pave

“Who’s the same physically at 37 as they are at 23. We’re having to evolve and adapt, Darwinian in that way to, you know, keep moving forward and keep moving forward.”


[VERSE 1]

I’m going for it. Ignore it, if you don’t have the guts

Being uncertain is what’s perfect; I haven’t had enough

Congratulations on being jaded, you made it!

What a wonderful occasion, you’re here and we’re celebrating!

I’m seeing red while I’m staring at a court case

Smearing blood on my face like it’s war paint

My soul’s gathered a flow fatter, I’m bad to the bone matter. Words scatter like phone data, been climbing my own ladder

You’re talking with the wrong guy if you’re depressed

Who’d put his foot inside your ass and hit your fucking chest

And I’m not hard at all, maybe you’re extremely soft

To put me in the mix with everything you’ve ever heard before

If I could take all your pain away I would

And release from all the pressure

When you’re stepping on my foot

So if my party over here doesn’t look right

Just know I’m not surprised, I got you open like a book’s life

Making moolah, I’m a late bloomer, straight shooter

How we maneuver is, there’s nothing I won’t take to ya

You have a goal in mind to bring me down instead of live

And throw me to the wolves like I’m the one who’s raising them

I’m not about to drop a couple of pounds

I’m here for tipping the scale; I’m eating everything now!

While their nightmare remains, a white flag to wave

And my brain activates that bright path to pave


[Chorus SCRATCH]

“I flow steady like the sands of the hourglass.”

“Dropping math paragraph after paragraph.”

“…beauty in my noise where the rest heard static

I’ve had it, trying to explain this same formula.”


[VERSE 2]

See rappers are like police, I don’t trust them as elite

Too many of them on the beat, are corrupt to the say the least. And I’m the type to take the fall when cops come to the house, For two friends standing there, scared to open their mouths

No doubt. Tough breaks I have had my share;

To put it all in the atmosphere, now isn’t that sincere?

I can’t imagine all the fun you think I’m having without

There he goes again, he’s being overly dramatic

You’re looking for an honest man. Who you being honest with? Honoring the things you find only on the surfaces

What a help that you’ve been for my health

And how I thought that it was you, as if you’re somebody else

I’ve dealt with being here long before you ever heard of me;

With so much urgency to live better than I’m currently

Full of color to discover one another

As a human being, leaning on and feeding off each other

Play the cards that life handed us, intimidate the scandalous Mentalities of leaders who professionally are amateurs

I’m dreaming bigger than the dreams that I’ve already had

And I can handle if you’re thinking I can’t handle that

Stability, here to kill the scene with artillery

I’d cross a million seas for possibility to drop the guillotine

I’m for the long run. You must be on some track meet

To tell your biggest fans they need to see a better athlete


[Chorus SCRATCH]
