Chorus
Like raindrops waiting to fall, I’m feeling weighed down
Gravity, Gravity
Won’t let you get the best of me
Best of me, No (x3)
V1
Thru the fire, thru the flames
Thru the snow storms stay so calm thru the rain and
Like a man, stand up to the pain and
Thru sickness or thru health I never melt I say
Aye put the heat back on your belt
No weapon there shall prosper over gospel, Pentecostal flow or
Maybe Da Vinci Code, or simply put
The truths I spit can be found somewhere in a book if you just open your minds to look
Or open your ears to hear but maybe fear can steer you
Clear away from knowledge, hold you hostage to ignorant and
Caged, inside of it like a slave inside a maze
But like the rain can wash away make it free to runaway
Chorus (x3)
Bridge
Waiting on them to fall
Waiting on them to fall
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
V2
I remember sitting right there on my bed scared thinking bout
What’s finna happen after he said what he said, he say
“Hey, I know that you gone be ok,
But your lil bro yo, you know you got to watch him along the way”
I said, “Ok” as he walked, I followed
And it hurt then like its still gone hurt tomorrow
But I transform all that sorrow, and pain life let me borrow
And turn it into the fuel that’s gone power my tomorrows
Learning yesterday’s what made me strong today,
But the more I build my strength the more my problems can weigh but man
It’ll only makes sense I guess, if you strong why go thru less
Bullshit than what you can take? Nobody said that life was easy
It makes you stronger so he put that on you,
Like your dreams, like everything that you need to have
In your life, to make it life or
Why you living, because nothings right
Become a burden over sunny days; turn them cloudy
To symbolize the brain storms that go down in my brain
And like a quicksand pit can, pull me down from my legs
Sink me in till I’m over my head,
And let me show you how I play it
Yea let me show how I play it
Say let me show you how I play it
Yea let me show how I play it
Chorus (x2) - Track Name: Find Yourself
-
(Ad-Libs)
Chorus
In the search to find yourself, don’t lose who you are
In the search to find your place, don’t lose your faith
In the search to find yourself, don’t lose who you are
In the search to find your place, don’t lose your faith
V1
Listen up I got something to say, my nigga told me that there aint a God
I had to turn the other way I know my journey aint the best one
But if this train ever stops that I’m on then shit I’ll just catch the next one
And get off when it aint goin the right direction
When shit goin wrong I’m a make the corrections
Niggas be stressed bout the test of life get it right get it in
Aint nothing perfect here where we living at
Nigga I know you knew that, so why you do that?
Throw away what you got cuz what you want aint for you yet
Foolish to get confused and lose you
Outta tune with your own life, live in the boondocks
Away from your heart, moving on track then you fell apart
Like a prosthetic limb you’re so detached from the real
And I’m filled with the pain and the shame every time that I’m near
But that’s just a reminder to find yourself
In a search some meet a death
In a dance witht the devil, walking with a shovel
Diggin your own grave, man..don’t bury yourself
Chorus (x1)
V2
Tryna make a name in this shit, nigga what a job
Non-profit organization well hell at least it feels that way
Way we giving out and reaching out you’d swear it really is that way
Cuz I live that way day in and day out
Giving my everything hardly to get a pay out
Day job to feed me, wanting so bad to be recognized
One, cuz I know the game need me
Two, cuz it aint too many niggas who can see me
And three shit I’ll give you four or five different reasons but
Seeing is believing, and I know that I’m golden
But these other niggas aint retrieving or receiving
And the cycle is repeating I’m receding
To my vice tryna heighten what I’m breeding
Thru my creativity, infinity
Tryna expand on my abilities
Chorus (x1)
V3
Mama call say my brother feel like he alone
Not to mention she don’t like the fact I’m rarely home
Say she just wanted me to think about it
As she was probably on her way to have a drink about it
While I fire up by myself and I write about it
He looking after his son tryna do right about him
The baby mama was probably reason we fought about it
But tonight before we all go to sleep
I bet we all gone pray about it, cuz that’s my nigga
Even when a nigga aint agreeing with him
My mama that’s my baby over any other lady so
When its ever shady and the sun don’t shine
The moon don’t glow no more and you just don’t know why
Look no further than your son
Struggled overcame em, brother from the same one
So treat this one the same and just holla my name and I’m there
If anything happened to one of yall I’d bury myself
Man
If anything happened to one of yall I’d bury myself (yea)
And that’s real - Track Name: Feel Good
-
Its okay, it’s okay
(Yawning)
If you love to get high, I wrote this song for you
V1
Wake up in the morning and the first thing on my mind drop a twitter line holla wassup wit it
Cool ass chick holla back at a nigga like who aint talkin bout it who the fuck is you kidding
Ooh you aint know boy I’m always with it, always got it so I never gotta get it
Nothing but the finest, she float with the highest came right thru in the clutch time with it
Like aye, we gone get high today, we can start right away
Oh yea girl you okay with me so we chiefing
Fuck all the beefing, long as I’m on this weed
This weed, this weed I’m like aye
Chorus
If you love to get high then get high (If you love to get blowed)
And if you love to get blowed then get blowed
Light up an L fire it up, fire it up
Go on and fire it up and smoke out with me
If you love to get high then get high (If you love to get high)
And if you love to get blowed then get blowed (If you love to get blowed)
Light up an L fire it up, fire it up
Go on and fire it up and smoke out with me
Bridge 1
See me and you got this kinda relationship
so when they hate it just roll off my shoulders
Baby you, you got me so wide open baby
I’m wide open don’t what they tell me
V2
She say, she don’t really like me smoking. Aww girl you must be joking
How the hell you think I keep focus when the pressure and the bullshit mix
Baby girl you must be crazy, if you think I’m gone be crazy
Enough to let the world determine my right from wrong when I feel much amazing
I’m meditating, step outside yourself
And see the whole world surrounding you just outside the cell
That we dwell, and feel like it is the world
When we’re just a thing really tossed in the world
To become what we can yet raised by a mother’s hand
To become a man Life’s contradictions, all in a part of the world we live in
Is so relentless with broke commitments situations that become horrendous
But don’t surrender, matter fact roll a bat, kick back relax and sang this
Bridge 2
We’re smokers united lighting under one nation
Not limited to landmarks cuz participation
Stretches from my homeland crossing the water
Be feeling how I feel even when it gets harder
And it don’t even matter bout the big wigs in power
Cuz we just be like fuck it for a couple of hours
Aint worried bout them bills we just hold up a peace sign
One love from me to you and music help us to be fine
Now don’t it feel good
Chorus
If you love to get high then get high (If you love to get blowed)
And if you love to get blowed then get blowed
Light up an L fire it up, fire it up
Go on and fire it up and smoke out with me
If you love to get high then get high (If you love to get high)
And if you love to get blowed then get blowed (If you love to get blowed)
Light up an L fire it up, fire it up
Go on and fire it up and smoke out with me - Track Name: Story of My Life
-
Uh huh, some jazz café type shit right here
So I’ma get real intimate with yall
Let you in on my most deepest and darkest
Yea, let me talk to yall
V1
I just wanna be successful damn, story of my life
Giving everything to make it right
But shit don’t come over night not if you want it to last long at all
But I’m damnere bout to go thru withdrawals finding my topics be the same thing
Cuz writing bout the shit the only way I maintain
When it’s taking me longer than what I had planned
Cuz yea I’m young but I know I aint getting younger and in fact I’m getting older by the day but
The fact I’m getting smarter help me handle all the problems
Approaching different angles and stay focused when I’m aiming
Breathe easy so my hand steady, so I don’t fuck up the shot
Cuz when I take it, I’m a tear off the block
So what you searching for a vest for? Aint aiming at ya chest
I’m pointing at ya cranium, open roof stadium
Action is what I’m packing in my plans for the future
A pound, grab the band, DC, Tuk, and my producers
We gone take this show on the road, ready to roll
And aint no turning back until we known thru every home
That’s what ambition telling me but
Reality sings me a different song, that bitch’ll blow my high
But never kill my vibe, see niggas in the XXL used to wonder why,
But now I question how you see, I don’t have all the answers so I don’t pretend to
I’m just tryna figure my shit out and do what I do on these instrumentals
Chorus
It gets hard, but it’s the story of my life
Giving the story of my life this far
It gets hard, but it’s the story of my life
Give ya the story of my life this far
V2
I aint much a talker but I think a lot, about a bunch of shit
And then I talk it out with myself in my head
It help to keep me calm, when shit going on around me
From music, to women, to problems with my family
Aint even mentioned part about me being broke and jobless
That might be bad for my image but fuck it who can harm it
If I aint a gimmick I’m just as real as you
When I get some money let you know bout how I spent it too
Maybe I’ll get a coupe, yea cross ya fingers for me
I heard a song that say you pray for me I’ll pray for you
I think that’s fair enough so don’t forget me keep me in your memory
And before I lay me down I say a prayer for you and many others
Especially my brother, that nigga need it
My mama doin what she can, wish I could meet it
Or match it, or better yet just take it off her back
Lord know she do enough I just wish I could give it back
She made me call my dad a bitch once, I never took it back
Living life with no regrets never regretted that
I dropped outta college and said I was pursuing rap
But like it kept me outta school it kept me outta the trap
In either case I’m probably never goin back to either
I’m tryna make this music shit work so I can believe it
I’m smart enough to see the money without the degree
And hard enough cuz cut throat business tough as the streets nigga
Chorus
It gets hard, but it’s the story of my life
Giving the story of my life this far
It gets hard, but it’s the story of my life
Give ya the story of my life this far - Track Name: So Long
-
Intro (x2)
The days go on, on
They seem so long
Man I can’t wait till we on
Till we on
V1
I got ice in my veins, blood in my eyes
Tears in my heart to symbolize attempted tries the bitter times
The winter’s I was in blizzards and hell was given
Night’s that I soldiered thru em existing in hell was living my life
But like a rose I rose from out the gravel stood in the heat battle
Using pain as the manna to charge what’s in my soul the magic I learned to channel
Fire I learned to control use it to my advantage
See em there at the vantage point to pick me off, won’t do shit but piss me off
Take em by they neck and rip it off
Take a loss? Na, nigga that’s out the question
Losing for them laid back niggas who resting while I’m stretching
No resting until my death bed, and I told death to fuck off
I stepped onto my launch pad, count down until I take off
No resting until my death bed, and I told death to fuck off
I stepped onto my launch pad, count down until I take off (Yea)
Chorus (x2)
Ima be working harder than I ever been to realize dreams
Harder than I ever have for me and my team
Harder than I ever would to do this one thing
I dream, man I cant wait to be on
V2
A nigga running like being hunted, but do the hunting
I’ll let you do the balling and stunting I’ll do the gunning
And aim, right at the top of the game where I will post at
And stick to that bitch like a fucking post it mental note that
Won’t look back, won’t look down, might reach out, and look round
But never once I step up will I lay down
My playground is this business so, no need to play round
All work makes G a phenom, the man, a demon
Now take me to your leader
I’m fucking up the game and I skeet semen out the speakers
Don’t need features don’t need co-signs, just applicate some more grind
Face up what you chasing nigga toe the line its go time
At present I’m contender, but soon defender of the titles
That my idols hold but soon to unhand them at my arrival
I’m Jason, Michael Myers, Caesar of the Empire
To winter I am the fire, demand it I’m the supplier I’m on
Chorus (x2)
Ima be working harder than I ever been to realize dreams
Harder than I ever have for me and my team
Harder than I ever would to do this one thing
I dream, man I can’t to be on
Outro
Man I can’t wait till we on
Man I can’t wait to be on
Man I can’t wait till we on
When we on Ima be ready for it
Ima give it my everything
Ima give it my everything
Ima give it my everything , my everything
Ima give it my everything, everything
I want this more than anything, anything
Ima give it my everything, everything
