And I don't even gotta post about it I'm ghost now
Yeah I don't got an ass to share for likes
But a vision to follow
And chasing dopamine spikes
Gonna be leaving you hollow
This weirdo internet shit, isn't me
And I realized it when I started doing shit that wasn't
Run off with a quick bag
But my plans involve Long term can I realized that
Evil times call for good people and better actions
The worlds corporate and they all cappin'
Wake up and look at your phone or hit snooze you still nappin'
The goals to keep you focused on distractions
Yuh
Evil times call for good people and better actions
The worlds corporate and they all cappin'
Wake up and look at your phone or hit snooze you still nappin'
The goals to keep you focused on distractions
I'm taking action,
And blasting off, I already found my sauce
And I came back so I can share it with my dogs
What's the point in gettin' educated, if you aren't gonna educated your people
No one wins until everybody's equal
What that preacher say?
I give you words of god but give me money first
But go against me you got end up gettin' cursed
I say fuck all that
I find my faith in me I'm praying patiently I'm waiting for my time
And embracing life gracefully
Look if you toxic im'ma cut you off just like a GMO
Can't afford to have you stick around my cells and see you grow
I got plans of living healthy growing old up in the mountains
Fountain of youth man I think I might have found it
Shit im'ma look 21 at 45 no bags under my eyes
That stress will do you in so I been living light
Take a breath, decompress, shit maybe count to ten
Relax and then reflect of life events I realized then
Evil times call for good people and better actions
The worlds corporate and they all cappin'
Wake up and look at your phone or hit snooze you still nappin'
The goals to keep you focused on distractions
Yuh
Evil times call for good people and better actions
The worlds corporate and they all cappin'
Wake up and look at your phone or hit snooze you still nappin'
The goals to keep you focused on distractions
I pick up trash on the sidewalk
Try'na keep my karma flooded
Good energy around me and I love it
Good deeds reciprocated in due time
Can't wait to use mine
I'm free minded sharing truths with these rhymes
Yeah I'm
The universe will test ya before it bless ya so just stay down
It sends a pot of gold then brings the rain out
Just keep it moving
It don't make no sense to blow your brains out kid
And if you struggling then just remember this.
Yeah remember this.
