Create the world
That you and I
Could be living in now
In a wonderful life
Even if you thought
You would never design
You should never resign
We could never decline
I’ll break my back
I’ll break the bank
I’ll break my heart
Just do my part
I am here until
I got nothing left
Nothing ever lasts
If we never start
If we never start
To create the world
That you and I
Could be living in now
In a wonderful life
Even if you thought
You would never design
You should never resign
We could never decline
I’ll break my back
I’ll break the bank
I’ll break my heart
Just do my part
I am here until
I got nothing left
Nothing ever lasts
We all start
The same in the beginning
Just a thought a father had
And never written it
He told me
that Id be more than infinite
Start off as liquid
And End up ubiquitous
I was sick of him for telling me
That every enemy
Was just another victim
And I
The remedy
Drew blood
When I first talked back
Handed me a mic
And then he said
To spit in it
Once written it could never be erased
So I never wrote a line
I was afraid to make mistakes
Even God made darkness when he created light
So at the end of the night
I’d learn to fail in his grace
Before I ran tracks
I would fall on my face
Made a terrible beat
But today that aint the case
Stop setting the bar low
You aint a star yo
This is not growth
But it’s a start though
Ready
setta
go
Countdown
To reset the
Flow
Create the world
That you and I
Could never
Forget to know
Set the note
To a higher state of eloquence
I can do what nintendont
On my genesis
I can do what nintendont
On my genesis
On my genesis
I am living the dream
Just a brother from the illipines
Everytime I got to cut a beat
They call it guillotine
This ain't a euphemism so that you’d abuse it
But is a metaphor that I can kill it in the music
And right now I just want to be me
This canvas
Is my face on a green leaf
Spray painted in white ink
In no particular
Order
We are what the stars look up to
But more than
Northern lights
I am an
Organism with an overbite
If you need it you can have my
Endo reticulum overnight
Giving it to the limit
Im in it until I own the right
To go and give life
Through the pen
Better hold it tight.
Look in the lens.
Use less light
When I’m useless
I’d
Be the first to abuse
And confuse this
Aite?
So grab a pad
And use this.
Write.
Ready
setta
go
Countdown
To reset the
Flow
Create the world
That you and I
Could never
Forget to know
Set the note
To a higher state of eloquence
I can do what nintendont

No matter how far you go
I will sing that song you wrote
Hidden in my heart I know
You will always be
my home
I hope
That anywhere that you would be
You will always think of me
Maybe even in my dreams
Hopefully
Finally
We could be
I can feel you close
though you’re so far
Try to find you in the dark like a
sonar
(So hard)
Solar Flash
Like a North Star
Let me travel to your heart
Flash Gordon
Last boarding
Hold the train traffic door
I
Will do any
Plenty of time to
Go home or go hard
be inanimate
If I couldn’t be
where you are
This instance
I missed it
I'm sick of
This distance
Had to find peace
But it's hard to power thru
Like a Megazord on
Some molecular slow part
Calling Zordon
Distance is my Goldar
More phenomenal
That I could follow you from Cali to Bali to globe trot
Fighting all my demons
Gozar
Running from the thought of you
Is how I broke down
Had to wait away the pain and stop this
find a way to weigh my options
I got this
Let the show start.
No matter how far you go
I will sing that song you wrote
Hidden in my heart I know
You will always be
my home
I hope
That anywhere that you would be
You will always think of me
Maybe even in my dreams
Hopefully
Finally
We could be
I feel you close
Though you’re so far away
No more miles in between us
let the distance just fade, just fade
Even the moon, needs the sun to shine
The way my heart needs to know that you’re still mine
You're imprinted on the inners of my eye lids//
Using Siri so I can peer into your iris'//
I mean yea I've been rerouted before, I've been//
Havin flashbacks of walkin out of the door and i was//
Thinkin..maybe one last kiss maybe//
One last touch maybe one last this and//
That last bar coulda went another way if I'da//
Rhymed another word, but, that's neither here nor//
There like your current position in relation to me//
I felt the current when kissin and the way that we speak//
Now, over email and texts, but//
We're beyond say like the female from Texas//
Yea, how far is too far//
Too far is never wherever you are//
A way to weigh the pain to stop this, find a way to//
Weigh my options I got this stay let the show start//
No matter how far you go
I will sing that song you wrote
Hidden in my heart I know
You will always be
my home
I hope
That anywhere that you would be
You will always think of me
Maybe even in my dreams
Hopefully
Finally
We could be
I feel you close
Though you’re so far away
No more miles in between us
let the distance just fade, just fade
Even the moon, needs the sun to shine
The way my heart needs to know that you’re still mine

BEAST
02:50

You are staring at the beast eye
Rip the record I'm ripping it
Ripple the rhythm
It’s only the B side
Flushing down
My home town
Give it your love
It needs mine
Higher standards in Chelsea
Lower my east side
Over my east nation
I move like I’m
Rapping in immigration
What’s happening to the basics?
Apologize for the complication
Like I’m on that Japanese innovation
Had to be
That new sensation
I am spitting furnace when you home alone
Back in your basement
I don’t want to be another tenement
Even a brick
Wants to be
Relevant again
Throw me
Into a window
Just so
I can feel the wind
I want to hold paint like
Bob Ross
I’ve tried it all
Live to gain
And die of loss
Got eternity
Inside a cross
Find that I am more than what defines a human being
This flesh and blood
Is at best a dud
I’d invest a ton
To find a newer feeling
Than the street that I would run through
Learn to run this life or this life could run you
You could be the beast
You could be the beast (beast)
We could be the best
Rep the west or the east (east)
We connect
Say it from your chest
Feelin free
Speech
So protect ya neck
Rocking to the beat
Beast
Speak
You could be the beast
You could be the beast (beast)
We could be the best
Rep the west or the east (east)
We connect
Say it from your chest
Feelin free
Speech
So protect ya neck
Rocking to the beat
Beast
Preach
B to the e to the a s - t
Yall better lay that heat
Cuz I will run a beat down
Yallain't as great as me
They say you ain't even that Asian
You ain't represent me
They said I lack that street mentality
most definitely
I'm a chubby illipino
That is vain to the bone
But I work hard
Gotta spit game to the throne
At the end of the day
We be takin the show
And yall taking them notes
I'm Commando
I'm a name they would know
Yall come and go
While I Command flow
I Command lines
Macintosh
Yall is Linux
Ms dos
C prompt c prompt
Emulate my swagger
Cd rom
Man I'm Michael haggerswinginwackemcees
Til the break of dawn
Done with the tricks
I'm mixin my sixteen
I spit in 16 bit
Pause for the beat
My drunken dream
Is like my team
We make them hits
So catch your breathe
You need it more
Speak elegance
Did I mention that I've been sent from dimension four?
We can not be crushed
Speak in louder tongues
We can not be hushed
We a mountain of
We are not enough
Now all your base
Are belong to us
You could be the beast
You could be the beast (beast)
We could be the best
Rep the west or the east (east)
We connect
Say it from your chest
Feelin free
Speech
So protect ya neck
Rocking to the beat

Snapshot take a photo
Uno momento
Let me get a pic of my bento
Adding lopro to
this ramen bowl tho
We could prolly
Turn it to a pot of gold yo
Hashtag, I don't know
More thought into the image
That is surrounding my article
About fifty eight likes on my pic of
Fro yo
So on that final note
I saw you standing on the platform
With the black on
Snap back with a rad backpack torn
Girl, That's cool
saw me at the soul show
When I slow mo
Felt you in the front row
I
Follow your feed
Like an animal more
To the point that youre dope
But I got that FOMO
So perhaps it's best
That that less we both know
About each other
is an old testament
Dont google or Facebook
Or add me on snapchat
On tinder, okc, or xanga
I'm passed that
talking online gets a bad rap, stay
miscommunicated
disconnect the 56k
I spit bars
to whatever's in my
Disc tray
Take pics of whatever's making this way
Just say what you want to say.
I don't
Find a new wave.
Take my hand
No love lost
Like a late night stand
Date night
And i missed this and
I'm a risk this since
I got to
Click this cam
What's your Instagram
What's your Instagram
What's your Instagram
Let me take a chance
Obsessed with the image
I'm living they know not
That I am more than man
I am an an robot
Want to be inside your pocket
Like I'm on a mobile
Got to kaoken
Times ten kame hame ha
When I start to levitate
Like I'm supposed ta
Wingardium the part where imaleviosa
Im on it
Like mcconagal putting me on her roster
Now watch me nose dive.
Fall down
Like a roller coaster
Bouncin
Like Dhalsim yoga
Flame on a comment
Like I'm on a troll vibe
Addressing every critic
Like a Lisa Mona
Is like taking bets
But I be in your bar
I could never win it so I need to go and wall out
Leroy Jenkins
In your MOBA
Haha
Hold up
Take my hand
No love lost
Like a late night stand
Date night
And i missed this and
I'm a risk this since
I got to
Click this cam
What's your Instagram
What's your Instagram
What's your Instagram
We don't need this fam.
Insta famous
It's like bein nameless
On an a list
Every digital dot
And comment
Isn't ageless
When the wifi cuts
The signal is blade less
No bars
Im still getting faded
Hand disappear
Like mcfly couldn't save us
Doing something different
Even though it aint the same bliss
Wouldnt you say this?
If the people that follow you
Are fake friends and bots
Hashtag another thought
Add thots who lookin hot
But real talk
I wanna know
Would you follow me
even if I was not
I wanna know
What's next
open your heart
So We can go and both undress
Make my chest Sunset
Feeling yellow and red
Saber tooth tiger
Tyrannasorus Rex
No need to pretend
Like we all ain't a mess
Might say the wrong thing
But I semicolon
Tapping glass
ain't the best way to
Go and send a text.
Let's connect.
Take my hand
No love lost
Like a late night stand
Date night
Andi missed this and
I'm a risk this since
I got to
Click this cam

CITY NIGHTS
04:55
|
|||
What time it is?
3 am? I'm fine with it
When the sun set
We can sip moonshine
Maybe two times
No matter what night it is
So
Loosen up
Or tighten it
Go hard like light ening
We got one life to live
I woke up like this
I woke up like this
Track turn to gold
Cuz I be king Midas
I used to be the shy kid
From the illipino island
I've been
On too many stops
Now you never ask
Who the flyest?
Started rhyming
Gotta be 9000
Tops
Tell me the future
Come out and say it
Get money to line the wall
Like we living 69 at bayard
I'm playing
The city
like a second set of D&D
Took a trip on the BQE
LIE
Try to find where I be?
I am always here
Always home
VenAqui
Represent even till I leaf
Where I live
Where I breathe
So enter
It's written inside of my skin
With a pen so
The city is center where everything ends up
Get schitso
On an instro
Mental
City nights
Can't nothin hold us down
We bout that life
We bout that life
City lights
Ain't nothin bright as us
We own the night
We own the night
On the express line
Tryin to come up on the seven
It's how I go on tour
Best time
To write them rhymes
Is standing clear of them closing doors
I am a product of
Michael Jay
And that
eighties noise
Im faded
No grip on gravity
This ain’t a baby’s toy
Write with the mind
Speak with the heart
Hold up,
Let’s restart
I’ll spit that sixteen slow
If I be the king
This where the queens go
It’ll be in the heat
of the best
Everything I see
In the LES
Create a world of fiction
As vibrant as my addiction
Stars in the sky
I learned to fly there
And when they fall down
My high is
Times squared
Don't get blinded by the people
Beneath it we all be see-thru
Indeed we could all be equal
But we focus on the different
And This is how we move the east coast
We walk on broken backs just to seize throats
Help me turn the Hudson River into wine
Ill deliver you the spine
So we could
At least grow
City nights
Can't nothin hold us down
We bout that life
We bout that life
City lights
Ain't nothin bright as us
We own the night
We own the night
718
212
When opportunity is calling me
I’m calling you
This is how we scrape the sky
Everyone is on the roof
However even them tallest towers can be falling too
The bigger the pride the higher the weight
When they occupied the streets
Who won the entire debate?
I’m tired of hate
But all these east coast rappers
Just want to spit flame
I need to find my own fire escape
So just
Give me a pad and a plume, go
Get me a blue boat
Leave me on Pluto
Youtube a new flow
I’ll do what you don’t
Never been the one to have to stop
Got to keep up
Never backing down
Gotta make my own parents proud
Gotta show this whole town
This Filipino couldn’t be any hotter
Than Philippine hurricane wind
Don’t know how to slow down
So when the storm moves
Learn to slow dance
These streets got too many fingers not to hold hands
Cant nothing hold us down
We about that life
Ain’t nothing bright as us
We own the night
City nights
Can nothing hold us down
We ‘bout that life
We ‘bout that life
In New York,
concrete jungle where dreams are made, oh
There's nothing you can't do

ONLY AT THE TOP
04:27
|
|||
When you’re only at the top
Where do we go?
And I didn’t have to give up
And lose my soul
Maybe it’s time to live up
And lose control
We can never stop
We can never stop, no
Back in the day
When I represented Tech
Brooklyn
I played my tape red
Until my tape bled
Recording hot 97 on a clear cassette
Flex dropping bombs with my girl angie Martinez
Mom working nights
So I can read and write
Dad don’t want to be illegal
Memorize the bill of rights
My friends want to rock sick Mike J’s
And start fights
I wanted to start sick rhymes
And rock mics
So who am I?
It is hard to say
Do or die
Life after this life
Isn’t for me
To decide
You got to learn to fight the night
Forget your feelings cuz
You stop learning how to give it up
This is what having does
And I had it all
On top of the ladder
We’d rather had taken advantage
The damage landed
And then I had to fall
Reminding me that every step I take
I take with yall
Never saw the bottom
Cuzweonly standing tall
Whenyou’re only at the top
Where do we go?
And I didn’t have to give up
And lose my soul
Maybe it’s time to live up
And lose control
We can never stop
We can never stop, no
The rise and fall of a character is inevitable
not all the fruits you bear become edible, incredible
how half these mafkas go about it,
fold their hand, thinking the game is overcrowded
The media got us living vicariously through others
Trapped in, watching the game from under covers
Expose our insecurities, to tell us what we’re missin
Refuse to live my life around what everybody isn’t
Dreams of wood grain..plush leather in the ride
Revving ,clutch shifting…bad chick on the side
Do it for the money, cause the money buys the dream
But when you finally get it ,it ain’t always what it seems
Im by passing you haters… I’m headed to the top
Unstoppable, Full throttle , giving everything I got
Impossible is nothing, Ethan Hunt , I’m on a mission
Ambition for the vision trumps, no matter the condition
When you’re only at the top
Where do we go?
And I didn’t have to give up
And lose my soul
Maybe it’s time to live up
And lose control
We can never stop
We can never stop, no
I can see my destination but i just don't know what route ill take
like "a tribe called quest" i'ma "find a way"
wheni spread my wings, you can bet i'll take flight
throw me in a -fish tank- i would be that -great white- (shark)
try to sell us bullshit, the imagery of grandeur
asked a lot of questions that nobody wants to answer
i know you might be thinking that you prolly heard this mantra
i'm just being honest, hope you realize my candor
Promised you would know me, progress happens slowly
pain and perseverance got me moving past the old me
don't forget your roots, know your classics and your oldies
i am living proof, and im bringing all my homies
when all is said is done, i will be that number one
not afraid to fail and they wonder where the hungers from
when all is said is done, i will be that number one
im headed for the top, tell me what you're running from
Only at the top, only at the top
Only at the top, only at the top
Only at the top, only at the top
Can we bring the place down
We can never stop, we can never stop
We can never stop, we can never stop
We can never stop, we can never stop
We can never stop the boom bap of the sound.

SELLOUT
03:10
|
|||
How can I save my soul?
Really sort of hard to live on faith alone
You already know opportunity has gotta knock-knockon the door
And I'm all set to go.
It’s about 5 in the morning, all alone and
Wish that y’all could evensee me in the zone.
Can I be a testament?
If I’m living every day right but the rest I don’t?
Know this, that I lost focus,
Could've been a hip hop soldier fightin for the whole globe;
But oh no; could’ve been kings for so long.
Not since I’ve been a lost prince in Queens I let my soul-glo.
Make a logo; throw a dope show,
we both know who to go to:
Mr Manaloto.
And I could write a solo
I'm all about the written, I'm kidding, I don't know
I want to sell CDs
I want to sell out seats
Be everything that I said I'd be
They tellin the truth
That I can not see
Every word in the booth
Is an L I E
So
Cest las vie
To the hell I leave
And then I breathe in
And then I'm free
How can I sellmy soul?
How can I sell out me?
Get hot on the microphone
Live life like the limelight
Is a type of home
Ain’t nobody want to see me
On their
Desktop or phone
Overload Firefox
And stop the Chrome
We illegally
Down loading
If you’re listening loud
How do you now own me?
Am I your only?
Who really be
mind controlling?
that's in the past
TBT
You cant
Even
delete me
Everybody wanna bop
To the dope drop to the head
DDP
So
I see these greens
For the cd sales
I would never pretend that this fame isnt ill
But I never could sell out my name for the bill
I will live it to kill it
And now I am filled
I want to sell CDs
I want to sell out seats
Be everything that I said I'd be
They tellin the truth
That I can not see
Every word in the booth
Is an L I E
So
Cest las vie
To the hell I leave
And then I breathe in
And then I'm free
How can I sellmy soul?
How can I sell out me?
This is today; that I did miss the way we used to play safe.
We had an illusion that we would not lose it and every day we could stay great.
I considered my words to be nothing, Llke we were just poets with nothing to say.
Maybe You could sit, stay.
I need to spit on this stage.
I anticipated any elevated written hate, my master plan is to eviscerate, so listen, hey.
If you could step into the ring and fling a written eight and spit a bit of fate
Then we can sit and wait until the sky would break in two and make the people levitate;
Unless it be more effortless for us to lessen weight.
The lesson is that we invest in us and learn to hesitate to sell out
And sit down And yes let’s create.
I want to sell CDs
I want to sell out seats
Be everything that I said I'd be
They tellin the truth
That I can not see
Every word in the booth
Is an L I E
So
Cest las vie
To the hell I leave
And then I breathe in
And then I'm free
How can I sellmy soul?
How can I sell out me?

If you love say love.
Say Love Love.
If you love say love.
Say Love Love.
Love me for me
Love you for you
And everything you say
Is everything I do
I’ll do it all
Everything I do
Is love.
If I didn’t have you
Would I rather die?
This had to be handled in sanity
And I’d rather not
My love is too wide
To stand in
Front of the bullet
You cock it and pull it
Aim it at my heart
And then decide
Is this really love?
Or is it pride?
Didn’t want be another body counted to your fold
Would have gotten every automatic magazine and had them
Taken apart in the way that I could’ve been covered in metal and platinum, gold
See I’ve been everywhere to know that everything will go
As long
As the love
That you have
I would know
To put the pin back before the heart explodes
Blaze every path
Ignite the road
I’m carrying the scars of the last battle
Hand to hand combat
She my posttraumatic episode
So where have you been all my life?
I’m indebted to you cuz you’re loving me, right?
Love me for me
Love you for you
And everything you say
Is everything I do
I’ll do it all
Everything I do
Is love.
I'm not another wack cat
That lack the respect
To run the race track and act like I’d even expect
To kiss that soft spot on the back of your neck
You're like the Charizard card
I had to collect
put the heart into the track
Giving my head heat
Life in the boom bap
I am not a dead beat
Said
We could be a moment
Unfolded
Into the morning
I noticed
That everything around me
Doesn't even hold it
In comparison
Even the blind can
See you look
You're a sexy librarian
So can I read your books?
I was hoping to open
the part where you design the magnum opus
and started to have and hold us
Don't take too long with the makeup and shoes
I fell in love with the way your eyes
Tell me the truth
Even outside of the booth
I will love you for you
Love me for me
Love you for you
And everything you say
Is everything I do
I’ll do it all
Everything I do
Is love.
If you love say love
Say love love
If you love say love
Say love love
Say love
Let me hear you say love
Love me for me
Love you for you
Everything you say
Is everything I do
I’ll do it all
And everything I do is love
Love me for me
Love you for you
Everything you say
Is everything I do
I’ll do it all
And everything I do is love

MASK
04:22

I’m tired of the way that you can't see me
I’m tired of the way that you won’t ever really know
So Ima put this mask on
Back on
Back in
Let me tell the who world
I'm on
That's it
So get me thru the night
Thru the night
until we getting
to the light
and do it right
You're looking at the newest me
Everything I do to be
Living like I'm doing me
If everyday is usually
Then usually
I'm used to things
That make my vision
Beautifully
And I am best when I am losing
All the people that were using me
Like I ain't worth the fee
And thru addition
By subtraction
My lack of acting lackeys
Could be exactly that I need
Can you see me
Lackin passion
I'm asking for yall to stand up
We've landed
On top of the world
And yall breathing like yall have asthma
Can't handle the ball then pass it
managed to be a lasting asset
the little that I'm rappin
keep me coming back
A nasty habit
So stand up
And blast off
Like NASA
We pass all
The blank walls
That we put up
Last call.
I am breaking apart at the
Moment I fell on the asphalt
got mad faults
So stand tall
No mask on
I’m tired of the way that you can't see me
I’m tired of the way that you won’t ever really know
So Ima put this mask on
Back on
Back in
Let me tell the who world
I'm on
That's it
So get me thru the night
Thru the night
until we getting
to the light
and do it right
i
wanna take a moment
ima go head
gotta let you know my emotion
is an ocean of an unknown depth
got a whole lotta move forth
but no step
gotta disown my own dissonance
andi hold back
gotta go get
On that 9-5
When they wanna throw down
Would I fight or fly?
I'm a say I'm ready
If I am or not
lot of these masks
Wanna rap a lot
But they wanna hold back
For the glamour shot
Like the after life
Is an after thought
They see me as
An AZN
Try to brand the sound
But I'd rather not
Be another wack emcee
Rap on the record
Like I'm not enough
And I don't wanna rap
I wanna make music
Use it
The same way tupac and Wu did
Q-tip
Nas biggie eminem
It's adamant I prove it
Kendrick
Kanye
Neptune too
New tigallonujabes
Looped high res
With a bit of bap boom
my kid could say
Dad It'd be cool
To make hits like you
I consider that too
Will I be something that you wanna know?
To all my people
What are you waiting for?
Now that I may flow
How could I lay low
Had yall singing that hook
Like a Broadway show
And what I say goes
Im built up of many components
But knowing
That
I am my biggest opponent
Is prolly the reason that
I say no.
Learn that i never was chosen
Rather I chose it
Am I the one that's supposed to
Show my face to the
whole damn world
if any wanna battle
ima let him
stand in the face
of a giant
be defiant
eveni can grow
There's a lot you ain't know
I am not the same boy
I will rock the same face
But always change the main flow
Knock them off the stage yo
They Mistaken my kindness for weakness
Maybe I need this
Jesus
too survived
When he crucified
Why am I concerned
With the life I live
If I choose to die
Havent I proven it time and again
That we losin out
Yall sound
and dress alike
Just to rep the mic
But This is more than you and I
Who wanna get live tonight
Yallwanna get live tonight
I wanna get live for life
All I need is one mic
To tell my story too
If you can do better
Then Why haven't you?
I’m tired of the way that you can't see me
I’m tired of the way that you won’t ever really know
So Ima put this mask on
Back on
Back in
Let me tell the who world
I'm on
That's it
So get me thru the night
Thru the night
until we getting
to the light
and do it right

Baby let me drink you up
You're like a drink so
Your kiss go like an instroment
I can never get enough
Maybe we could sip slow
This flow fresh
Say ahh
Say ahh
You’re like a fine sip of wine
Let the liquor hit the better end of your mind
If I only got six seconds of your time
I’ll make it timeless
Record it on your Vine
Let me embed it in your brain
If you're into that
It’s kind of limiting
To love you on the Internet
This sort of thing
Got me pouring over lines
Twitter the track
one forty at a time
You’re like a fine sip of Hennessy
Venom with a bit of caramel
into the melody
You blow my mind
Call it JF Kennedy
Energetic
We outrun death
Live the fastest
Spill my thoughts on your lap
Jackie Onassis
Now I see life thru bright color glasses
Can I kick it like a Centipede?
Deadly venom assassin?
Planet I'm the captain
Lady
I'm just asking
Baby let me drink you up
I can never get enough
Say ahh
Say ahh
You're like a cool sip of h2o
Every other girl is way too cold
Theyre so toxic
When you mean mug
Call it hot chocolate
Box it
Wrap it up within a ribbon
Top it
With the sky as the limit
Fly with no
Cockpit
Doesnt really matter cuz I'm vibing with your rhythm
It got me seeing red
Like every moment was an optic
Blast
Thru the wall
Cut to the end of me
I'm not the enemy
I had to love
Like there was at least ten of me
I'm just a tenant for your benefit
An addict to your melanin
It's heavenly
We are two lines
Intertwine
Like a letter v
Two notes
On a flute blow
Like a melody
Say the word
Simsimsalabim
I appear
If you ever need it
I would never leave.
Baby let me drink you up
You're like a drink so
Your kiss go like an instroment
I can never get enough
Maybe we could sip slow
This flow fresh
Say ahh
Say ahh
And Me?
I'm like a big drink of fructose
Sweet innovate like my fam up in New Ro
Seat
And a table
Come and kick it with me
Judo
Eat Dinner plate
Leg of lamb and menudo
Take a bite
Take a second for the road
There's so much to go around
I got so much
Soul
Kick it old school
Voice on the vinyl
Cut it up with
Pro tools
Literally with a knife
You know it's all I got
You’re a dream within a dream
And I’m a spinning top
Never stop
You make me want to reach the end of infinity
And untie the knot
Pour me in a glass
And just take the shot
I’ll go down smoother than tequila on the rocks
We can go to the far end
Maybe bartend
Partake in your spirit
Only can we
Start then?
Baby let me drink you up
You're like a drink so
Your kiss go like an instroment
I can never get enough
Maybe we could sip slow
This flow fresh
Say ahh
Say ahh

WITHOUT AIR

What have you mastered?
My last trick was faster
Move past death; We crash wrecked.
But nothing's set in stone,
We asked if we would have lasted in past tense,
Is that your last breath?
What are you waiting for?
I could’ve been in that great unknown
But I could not stop just to break a vow
That I'd try to be the best man alive
And it's sad to see that ya’ll rather not
Wanna rush to jump but not take the time
So now take the bow.
I’ma end it now.
Catch your breath
You need it more
We need to know.
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
I want to hear you roar.
Where you at Asian America?
Had to move Far East to hear us on the stereo
Forty years since “EnterThe Dragon” and we let that carry us?
I'm mad enough.
Fine little island person and I'm having none.
Fire; water;
Even though I'm drowning nowI can erupt.
So ha-ha, we just got done; goodbye now?
Come find out.
Stackin up like pai gao
Go with the gut but I'm tactical
What're you holding your breath for?
Can't lie down if you're standing up.
Now I fell bad,I was hurting; Laid off
Every daylate so I took a vacay
So I could lay down and contemplate fate
But I prayed and living every day is a pay off
They could say I came back from the grave
Draw life like a purple crayon
I will run harder and farther
Than the line that every circle stay on
So play on.
Everybody got a reason they should stop
Even as I write this I got to ask is it hot enough
To get me to the top, Will I drop or not?
But not for naught;
And not for nothing
Gotta fight hard to find the last breath
So I could take death while I stand for something
And the last time back
You said
Next time that
You would last for all of
Eternity
Don't turn on me
Catch your breathe
You need it more
We need to know
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
I want to hear you roar.
Flip on the laptop, big identity switch I'm a mascot
And that's to my own wit and a back drop
Another switch and I sit on a cash crop
A better grip then a sip of the last scotch
Then it hits and I trip when they dance by
Give a tip for the lip, little ten spot
Then I cringe, gotta dip to the franchise
Head spins when I rin tin tin to the train-spot
Arrange it within, put a check in the blank box
I'll mock mock mock you in a generous mood
Then regenerate you and your robots
When I got this oxygen
Start feeling better when the toxins win
The way paved when the prophets sing
Got my arm raised in a boxing ring
Burn another CDR
Giving CPR to these CB stars
Drinking PBR in a Tiki-bar
Eating CBR with a mean streak hard
Buy a VCR, play antique guitar
Thinking we be charred, really seems bizarre
When the weekends are in a decent bar
Then I plead retard
Get a free recharge in the sequence
This art form's on point
Like a dartboard you can't avoid
But a sharp sword we can enjoy
Harpsichord for a sullen droid
But without air, I'll love the zombiance
Arise, didn't think rebirth would be so gruesome
They said it took balls so I grew some
And the last time back
You said
Next time that
You would last for all of
Eternity
Don't turn on me
Catch your breathe
You need it more
We need to know
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
I want to hear you roar.
This is thin air.
Exhale with an accent
I could sit here.
Suffocating Like I'm in the deep end
Where the beat bang bang bang,
It's a wasteland.
I have been there.
Hold your breath; Gotta inhale.
Got to get growth like I would've let go.
About three years in the making
But I'm taking steps to continue,
Everyone is waiting.
Hard to be the one when you feel like a part of me
Is atthe bottom and I gotta need a lobotomy
I don't want to be on my last breath
And my bad debt is the only one to follow me.
So I start at the crack of dawn.
The sky still black; Mastadon.
Pass it on to the next wannabe Galactus
Acting like you don't want to be attacked at all
Find me a lyric to be snackin on;
Toast wheat
Jelly peanut butter,
Better wrap it up.
Remind me when you had enough.
I’m still standing up.
Two Xanax and I'm getting live
And we getting loud within a half an hour.
I could never rest on the weekend when you hit the peak and you're tappin’ out.
I could never doubt that I'm living everyday like I'm not a whole lot,
But I got a hole that I got to go clot
And I won't stop;
It's like breathing;
My reason for being;
And I know now
And the last time back
You said
Next time that
You would last for all of
Eternity
Don't turn on me
Catch your breathe
You need it more
We need to know
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
I want to hear you roar.
You said that all of this is so you can show the world;
That you can hold your own; but I wonder if yo.
Are you really bout to do the things you said you would though?
What are you waiting for?
I want to hear you roar.
