Where do I begin with 'where you been?'s and 'where the music at?'s, I'm trynna prove to cats that I'm the dawg Vanilla Vick's can't catch, I'm trynna Buda-pester all these ho's and tell 'em I'm the best, Trynna fool investors til they money's something I caress, Not profesh, Tell a manager to give my dick a rest, Know me as the polished, honest kid, So what could I confess? Death beneath these eyes is no surprise to those who know me best, But trynna ask about me for a gotchya, get ya ass depressed, Boy, my AKA's was double digits before Milicic, '03 Draft, bloodline is the Flash, That's why the 3 the set, God Did - ask me, "Who is Khaled?", Because WE the best, And any type of contrary belief ain't hit my mosque of yet, Master? Yes - of my own domain, Ain't have a massa yet, But for the ones who did, I give my skin til we get back the debt, Asking 'bout a loan as if my soul ain't pay it back in flesh, Just trynna buy a home, But I get stoned each time they credit check... How do I admit I'm still in love with who I left, but yet, Never wanna see they ass again because of how it went?, That's a lie, If we link tonight, I still got passion left, To whisper in her ear like, "damn, this shit is still so fuckin' wet," Met a couple girls online, But always meet a disconnect, Every time I meet a girl in person, That's just money spent, How can I believe in things with no real definition yet, Can find the doubt in me each time I need to take a bigger step?, Money, money, money on my mind, But can't get me in check, The discipline I had went up in smoke the day my Granny left, [I'm] handling the stress by blowing checks on UberEats & sex, Except the sex is free, Cause it's just me & pics somebody sent, How can I, Look you in the eye & never come correct?, I gotta give my best 'cause any less would just be disrespect, To Mama & Your Honor & Who Ever Judge Me After This, Cause after this, I'm hoping my behavior make some kind of sense... How can I relate to anyone who ain't been through this shit?, Cause in this shit, Even daily showers can't remove the stench, I'm "who is this?!," If they roam terrain without acknowledgment, Cause honestly, respect's the only currency I'm dying with, I am IT, [But] wouldn't pick a clown to be the face of this, Cause God & Pope's know the weakest link is where Defiance is, Eyeing this, Beautiful young lady, maybe Heaven sent, Sitted in a dress that God had sewn to be her perfect fit, And perfect is, nothing I had known til knowing she exists, So isn't this, Everything I'm told to not let slip my grip?, A chance at happiness, that only happens if I take a risk?, Watch me take a swing, And make it sing like boys who trip & snitch, This is it, Days before I get on that "I told you" shit, Days before amazing & a week before my greatest trick, Moments before everything in my life takes a major shift, Moments before tragedy, I'm happy you can witness it.

Trying hard not to pick the phone up & text you, All I wanna know is why the fuck I can't forget you, The way that you erased me, The way you made me hate me, You do you with ease, But fucking you done made me crazy, Used to call me baby, Used to want my babies, Used to beat up bitches who was looking at me brazy, I'm hazy, Still remember asking you to date me, Sitting on my lap while looking back at me & blazing, Laughing cause I'm cracking jokes bout how dat ass is weighing, Then telling me to bf, but forreal, and quit the playing, Okay then, Sealed with a kiss, then got to K-ing, Uncles been told me that that pussy nun to play with, Til you gettin' played with, Now you on your day shift, Venting to your manager, Like, "man, this is damaging my sanity & health, still don't want nobody else," And he look at you like, "Bro, you really gotta love yourself," Cause I been down, Just got down bad for you, Calling up my mama like, "I don't know what to do," Venting in the journal like, "I gotta break it thru," Cause I wanna be a man, the man & her man too, Speakers Knockin', Guess I gotta get it on my lonely, Speakers Knockin', Guess I gotta get it on my lonely, Speakers Knockin', Guess I gotta get it on my lonely, Shout out to the homies, 5's til they stone me, Lives intertwine, I got bonds that are frozen, Even couch surfing, They said Ty def was chosen, When I fall in love, I don't just do it for the moment, I go life-long, Night's long, Trynna live & write songs, Trynna keep the lights on, Hoping that my sinning leads to winning 'fore my life's gone, Praying that they guns jam, "No, I wasn't there, ma'am, How could I have been? I never missed a shift at work, ma'am," Always put the work in, Even when I don't know if it's working for certain, Got it til it's curtains, Gold with the purp in, We don't live in LaLa, We been Lakers from the hurting, Crying from the trying, but it's better than the dirt is

We fucking, That don't mean we cuffing, Told her that I love her, Told the brodies it was nothing, Since I hit my stride, Up on my line, I got a dozen, [And] they all want my love, But love, That's not up for discussion, How I'm coming's like a freight train, Weight gain, Muscle milk & brain games, All I like to think about is art & how to maintain, Now I'm pushing 30 thinking, "damn, I need a game change," Launching it from 40 til I'm 40 doing Jay things, I might hit a lick with this shit if they say crime pays, Cause I body everything from here to where Japan stays, I don't wanna talk about yo problems, that's yo man's thing, I just wanna see if you a problem, I've been hearing things, [I'm] on one, Doing sumn, I don't wanna hear nun, Every flow is *brrr*, Tell them hotties I'm a cold one, I just wanna do my lil money dance & blow some, I just need a hit & pray to God that it's a homerun, On one, Doing sumn, I don't wanna hear nun, Every flow is *brrr*, Tell them hotties I'm a cold one, I just wanna do my lil money dance & blow some, I just need a hit & pray to God that it's a homerun, (Yee) Don't say that you know me when you don't, Don't call me a sheep, bitch I'm a GOAT, Don't - show me a freak & then go ghost, I might fall in love with you, but I'ma love yo ass the most, My girl wetter than my coast, I'm a money-thumbing, honey-loving, big bag-getter, Telling 12 just how I feel with 2 middle fingers, I don't wanna hear about yo lame ex nigga, Once I get inside, you'll never mind that nigga, Once I hit my stride, I'm doing all-time figures, Doing donuts in the city, just in memory of Dilla, I'm a student, but the way I'm bout to school 'em's even iller, Cause I'm living life to learn the lessons mama couldn't give him, My heart in the rhythm, All my music is, is feeling, I'm no villain, But the way that I've been killing ain't heroic, Can't be stoic, I'm too live, Can't below it, I'm too high, Ask G-O-D to tell you why, Cause I'm on one, Doing sumn, I don't wanna hear nun, Every flow is *brrr*, Tell them hotties I'm a cold one, I just wanna do my lil money dance & blow some, I just need a hit & pray to God that it's a homerun

I've been out the way, huh? I've been out the way, huh? But now I'm in your face, huh? (Lil Bitch) Fuck a hook, It's time to rap, You niggas wack enough, I'm black enough, Don't do the light-skinned shit, They bullied what? I fucked a bully up & fucked his girl, They never swirly'd us, About the world we're from, The need to know is we don't give a fuck, Pretty girl like, "Where you been?," I say, "In my head, boo," I'm like, "Where I'm s'posed to be?," She said, "In my bed, boo!," Patience is a virtue I've been holding on too long to, Need it all now, That's the energy I'm on to, Mind you, I've been out my mind, Cause I was born to - keep the peace, But ain't no peace of mind I'm holding on to, Warned you, Just leave me alone, And what you wan' do?, Made yourself a pest, Now we exterminating all you, I've been out the way, huh? I've been out the way, huh? But now I'm in your face, huh? (Lil Bitch) Add it up, I've lost a lot, But ain't subtract enough, I got my heart, I got my truth, And right now, that's enough, You mad at what?, At what I am or what I do for her?, Suck it up, You ain't shit, And definitely not to her, Telephone, (I don't really think they hearing us) You ain't shhh, But I don't have to say it more than once, You pray a lot?, I don't think your God is dog enough, I'm Relly Rott, The one who's wylin' til they fearing us, Fear & lust, Things that got me doing alley smut, She was paying bills, I was paying for a mouth to f--, That's a lie, Couldn't do it, felt all kinds of yuck, Didn't have the $5, spent my last on TP & a Dutch, Made it to the crib, Had my rib laying belly up, Asking if her thighs would get a hi from tongue or what?, Rolled the blunt, No response, I'm thinking, "what the fuck's a queen going thru to ask for money & a prick to suck?," On top of that, My lady's wanting me on top of that, Asking for the passion that I had when I was chasing that, Never knowing that the way I feel has been erasing that, I was all potential, now it feels like I've been wasting that, Face the facts, Don't know a God, I need a face to smack, Who you judging?, You ain't ever been where we be at, Ashamed to call my mama for a dollar, Eating beats for snacks, Pussy for my dinner & a place to do my sleeping at, Can't relax, I'm only chilling severed body fat, If your favorite rapper's missing, I know where the body's at, I got terror tales that if I told, I be in pen for that, Cause in the streets you claim you in, We really got no time for rats

Roll my troubles & pour my doubles, I'm back to work, From the rubble & the ash, we birthed a better bird, Fiendin' Phoenix, Boy, since a fetus I've had my feelings hurt, Know they wan' delete us, Please, Jesus, give me a better church, All I need's the word(s) to tell her she all I ever need, She my rib, I'm her lungs, She all I ever breathe, When we met, I was young & at a lesser speed, Still my pedigree was D-O-G in the height of heat, Played some hide & seek with my God, she got a better peek, Now I'm living in awe when she on top of me, How it got to be, I was drawing something the world should see, She came up to me like, "I think you gon' wanna talk to me," Took me to her corner & borderline hit the 3rd degree, Carving out her way to some hidden treasures in muddy seas, Ignoring the fact that I'm on her eyes, then on her D's, Chuckling like, "why do you get so nervous when you with me?," (Nah it's not even like that, I'm chillin' forreal, I'm chillin') Know my palms sweat, She took my hand like, "you good with me," Walked around the city for hours like, "let me show you scenes," Took me to a spot where the whole city looked make-believe, Looked me in the eyes & said she gon' be what she be in dreams, Said the world is petty, but pretty in ways not many see, Said her heart is heavy, cause in love is what she wanna be, Not just with a person or with a man, She wanna be in love with herself & where she stand, Wanna see, way more of the world than where she been, Asking me, if I believe in anything more than me, I'm talking like, "I believe the world is my enemy & my energy, I believe that love is my destiny & my ecstasy, I believe that something about us was meant to be, But I be thinking people don't like it when I speak honestly," She said, "Boy, that's prolly the dumbest shit you done said to me, Don't say you the man, then hide your hand, You better be, in love with yourself 'fore you take my hand, I'm trynna see, confidence & health in my leading man, The movie that I'm making out of life ain't for Peter Pans, I'm trynna be, bigger than the moment we living in, But still have a hand in the moment my living ends, Even if I don't, that is not where my heart dies, I will speak my wants, cause I won't let my heart lie, I will live in truth, let the magic & sparks fly, And if they got a problem, tell 'em say it or let it die, You wonder why my name in your brain got glue stuck?, Cause everything I do around you is my true love, I tell you what I think, and I pick your brain naturally, Til everything you think is an afterthought after me, And every time I see you, you be breathing more comfortably, Especially when I'm in your ear, telling you 'cum for me,' The day you can't be honest, is the day that my love will leave, I promise you," Hands sweating harder, The glow around her done got a hue, Purple lady made me say, "Baby, I'd never lie to you," She said, "Oh I know, cause I'd kill you for even trying to, But it's more important to me that you never lie to, Saying you got plans to rip & run with the big ones, I don't hear you saying you got the bunnies for big jumps, You be in this pussy all big, bad & bold, But the last tape that you dropped is years old, We too young & too old to not try, I help you out on any mission, except suicide," Almost cried, Lucky the rain started to flow, Then she started laughing like, "look, I got the control," I'm laughing too, like, "nah, you outta control, And you got a point, But look, baby we gotta go, When my stories told, I promise it's good as gold, From friend & foes, They'll say Relly was living soul, I'm in a mode, With no doubt running the show, And my ESPN saying I gotta stay in the zone, The day I lose my home & my heart is the day I'm losing you, The day I lose my soul is the day that I run away from truth, I got something bumpin' I promise that I'll be dropping soon, And when I do, I bet you my name be breaking news, And when I do, I bet you that I be breaking through, Reaching out for happiness, Bet the hand that I grab is you, Looking at my life, I've been thinking the missing piece is you, Cause when I'm missing you, I'm missing meals & sleep too, All I wanna do is be with you & ride for you, But I be forgetting the other one in my mind with you," (And that be the part that be fucking me up, you know? I'm just trynna do better) Then she gave me something that's honestly hard to scribe, A fire in her eyes that was gentile yet alive, A sliver hold of hope that there was truth within my lines, I can manifest success & do my best to stay beside, But still a subtle frown of doubt that this could be a lie, And that the man of many dreams could be the man of her demise, Staring at me, trynna see the future with her mind, Seconds die in silence til she kills me with the line, "If you gon' really be the man, become your own & then be mine"
9.
Man, I promise, I am always anxious, Always wondering if I can really make it, Then I question if I'm in the world to make it, Do I have a purpose or am I just perpetrating?, I got a big ____, But can't talk to women, I got some good sense, But can't stop my spending, I'm feeling like a rat stuck in the tar of sinning, And feeling like I'm in a rap star's beginning, Tell my Mama that my love will go beyond this living, To be honest, I don't really think I'm honestly living, Get a shiver, When I think of how it could've been different, Think my liver been know my Mama been concerned with my drinking, I tell 'em that I'm sober, But the drugs that they skippin', Are the ones I get involved with, I love when I'm trippin', And I love it when I feel like I can touch God's ceiling, But I hate the way I feel like I can't touch God's feelings, (So I'm) Rolling on this road with no guide, Hands up, Thinking, "what a hell of a ride," Left my love on her lips, And my soul in her eyes, When you see her, You just see another way that I've died, But it's - you know, Big boys don't cry, And it's - you know, Love still on my side, Don't you say that you miss me, When we meet next time, You already knew the future, When you passed on mine, (Damn) Lil' story from my B-More time, Was off course, But of course, She couldn't be more fine, Girl in question was a blessing, Who knew Angelou's rise, On my Mom, could take her son, And show him real sunshine, And we, Would play the same game every time, She'd say, "you funny, but a dummy, you should work on your mind," I'd say, "I'm smarter than you, I can find the joke every time," She'd say, "I did the same thing, I just sat next to mine," And ooh, Gotta love the quick-wit kind, But under surface, How I heard it, is I'm stunting my prime, If I worry way too early about handling dimes, I just might miss the point that the wealthiest find, And she, Told me I'd be worth it in time, If I focus like the Ford that my ex used to drive, I can make it out the blue, and see the green on my side, Or even look back in the mirror with the love that I hide, (While I'm) Rolling on this road with no guide, Hands up, Thinking, "what a hell of a ride," Left my love on her lips, And my soul in her eyes, When you see her, You just see another way that I've died, But it's - you know, Big boys don't cry, And it's - you know, Love my still on my side, Don't you say that you miss me, When we meet next time, You already knew the future, When you passed on mine, (Right?)

Understanding the understatements of power, Under pressure, Never has my skin lived without it, Lose my temper whenever they step-in all around it, I'm trynna drown it, The voices get louder with every hour, The flower was on my mind, The pussy one of a kind, Trynna tell her the weather, My reign is about time, Niggas be on the corner, For sure that they selling time, If every dollar just went to they daughter, then that'd be fine, Fuck it, we selling crime, I'm killing myself to rhyme, All of my thoughts & feelings in credible nicks of time, [They] telling me I could shine, I'm telling them that I am, [They] telling me that I'm blind, I'm asking them like, "I am?!," Promise the vision working, For certain I'm on my way, Promise the children hurting, The nurses can't get a break, Trauma-rama been round a lotta blocks - especially mine, Futurama done showed you my circle's my view of time, I gotta get it forever, The medicine for my mind, Prolly within her eyes, Prolly between her thighs, Trynna figure the many different ways I could fly, Sorry I meant to say the different ways to get high, LSD is my baby, The weed is driving me crazy, If the coke is not a soda, I'm poppin' you on the fly, Gotta get it together, my lady is finna cry, Gotta get it together, my baby is finna cry, Gotta get it together, my mama is finna cry, Gotta get it together, my papa is - nevermind, Losing is how I lose it, I went to the other side, Darker waters where barters for memories come to mind, Gotta be living mine, For telling me who I am, Gotta be living mine, For thinking you even can, Gotta be out ya mind, For trying it like you did, Gotta be out ya mind, For thinking I wasn't him, Just because I'm dead inside, Don't mean that I couldn't live, Whenever I come inside, Should tell you bout what it is, [The] pussy was never mine, Cause that pussy been a hit, One of my many crimes is getting a lil' whipped, One of my lil' tricks for getting outta them dips, Is dippin' into them funds, Spending a lil' sense, Ball with the elegance, Speak in the proper tense, I've been living in the now, I ain't spoke to the past since

I wanna know, Tell me how you handling the hits that life throws, Tell me how you managing the highs with the lows, Tell me what you drinking, And take one for the road,

Lifted, Gifted, I feel like I'm the one, Trynna find my way then find me one, Came in it 3 after '91, Pressured but ain't pressing 9-1-1, My difficulty's on the hardest one, Never catch me on a Harvey one, I love her, she love me, our hearts are one, So deep in this, it'd be hard to run, My music gon' hit on a Marley one, Been getting started but hardly done, That pussy insane on a Harley one, My baby too real on her Barbie ones, I'm trynna get big on a Farley one, Lifted, Gifted, I feel like I'm the one, Trynna find my way then find me one, Came in it 3 after '91, Pressured but ain't pressing 9-1-1, My difficulty's on the hardest one, Trynna do this like the Marcy one, Love me a Bad B - a bossy one, Good with the hygiene, a flossy one, Lost me a lot, but it cost for love, Tryn' do a lot 'fore they toss me doves, Won't blow the spot, but I'm hot, my love, [And] won't ever think that I'm hot enough, They just confused, we ain't opps, my love, They can't compete, so they talking stuff, They see me up, and it hurts, my love, But I was down, it was worse, my love, [And] I don't think for them it hurts enough, They bout to have 'em a oopsie, They bout to get it the worst, my love, Moments before we go curtains, love, I wanna make sure it's perfect, love, I wanna make sure it's worth it, love, Hope that you love me on purpose, cause, I don't wanna die with that fake in my blood, I wouldn't lie & say I'm from the mud, But I can't say this the cleanest of mugs, I'm bout to go get it all for us, And pray that your love doesn't die on us

She had that work, And I had that church, She calling me Him & she singing my hymns, I put bout 7 or 8 in her ribs, She swallows & always starts licking her lips, Kiss me right after to make me remember, We cum as a team til we come to our end, I put my tongue anywhere she has skin, Always lock eyes when I'm sticking in, How perfect I fit got me thinking it's mine, I'm bout to show her what's been on my mind, The depths of her waters had me say, "oh my!," She was like, "yeah boy, I know it's divine," Swim in her mouth, while I stroke in her thighs, Talk in her ear while she licking on mine, I'm telling her, "baby, don't worry, it's mine," "I'll get you together, but let's take our time," So we slow down, Enjoy the ride, I know we ain't had one in a long time, I know she was thinking I'm the wrong guy, That might be still true, But baby, not tonight, I got what she want, Got what she need, She good enough to get me on my knees, Can't say I'm sorry, But I can say please, Begging for love since the day I could breathe, I put in work and don't stress the OT, That was the moment I picked up the speed, Her titties performing, they got a routine, Her mouth disappeared, I'm like Harry Houdin, She ain't sayin' [shhh], But really, that's me, Covered her mouth, she was screamin' obscene, I'm back in her ear like, "look baby, just breathe, I'm going harder in T-minus 3," That's when I thrust & she sink into me, Nails in my back & my arms make me bleed, I was like, "good girl, that's just what I need," Cause soon as she clench, I know I'm bout to see, A look in her eyes, That tell me she free, [That] tell me she got everything that she need, More precious than any good painting could be, I feel her legs quiver under my knees, I see her mouth trynna handle her speech, I see a future, but don't wanna speak, Feel like our bodies are speaking the peace, And that's when she roll & get on top of me, Hands on my chest, She whining with ease, She was like, "oh, so you thought it was free?," Got up & got down to business on me, Slid down & told me that this is her D, I was like, "oh," And then she went OD, Swirling her tongue round the tip got me weak, She said, "Don't close 'em, keep your eyes on me, I wanna see how you look when it leave," Now it's her world, Her show, Baby got me tickets to the front row, I know I was putting in that good stroke, But baby quite literally went nuts tho, Couldn't even speak, Moaning for weeks, Thinking like why would she do this to me?, Hoping she stop only when I'm deceased, She only stopped to say, "bae, look at me," Ain't seen this much spit since Smack DVD's, Washing machines couldn't even compete, Way that she whirling & twirling & working & jerking, I hit notes Mariah carries, Told her I'm cuming, She told me to breathe, She kept on going, I couldn't believe, How could somebody do this to my body?, She prolly a witch, but she magic to me, I think I blacked out, Or maybe I tapped out, Cause next thing I know, she was tapping my cheek, Waking me up with a face full of glee, Laughing like, "that's why you belong to me!" (boy)

about

I want love so bad, I'd die for it. Nothing makes sense about it, but I've died over a thousand times and have known love in hundreds of ways already, so I don't need sense, I just need what I want. The name I hear in my head has a different tone than the one they sing to me now, so my heart chases the songs of my dreams. Like my life, the story begins on a Sunday. I left the city with a kiss to my girl and blurry picture of what could be. I knew I needed to go, but couldn't help that she wanted to stay. When I came back home, I thought I had a plan. After 5 years in a crazy place, I thought I had learned to trust myself and believe more. I thought I learned to let fear go. A pandemic & a break-up taught me how deeply things can fall apart. Life got harder and I lost focus. Days became years faster than ever, and I lost track of the last bit of my twenties. Losing youth started to feel like I was losing at life. Then the mirror reminded me I've only gotten better. Time has refined my taste and improved my vision. All I see now is what's in front of me. Knowing, what's next for me is what's best for me. What I've done now is, started something that has to be finished. The story we're telling is a great one, and this chapter is an amazing one. What I've learned to accept is that living is the reality for me. I feel, I bleed, I heal. The shadows can't swallow my voice, and the darkness can't destroy my dreams. Between then & now, I've only gotten stronger. I've seen things that have made me smarter. I've experienced women that have made me better. I'm grateful for the people that find their way into my life. I'm grateful for the stories we make. I'm grateful for the stories I get to tell & the ones I get to keep. The journey is the beauty, and this life will be beautiful. Everything from now will seem like it's happening fast. I'll warn you that there may be parts of it that seem out of control, but I promise we'll be careful, I promise we'll figure it out, and I promise we'll find time to enjoy it. So, please...
