These Days
Lexicon Lyrics

Straight out the box it be Oak and don't expect me to choke
I am confident from the get-go and will not falter

When I'm backed by a beat that straight rocks
I perform best when I have a strong rhythm to work with

I ain't no joke and I suggest you check out what I wrote
I am not to be underestimated and my lyrics should be taken seriously

Cause I'm funkier than three day old socks
I have a unique style that sets me apart

That's how I'm living, Oak catches wreck? That's a given
This is how I am and I know that I am good

I want the whole thing, not the crumbs like a pigeon
I want the full experience and won't accept less

These days I'm not impressed by nothing anymore
I have encountered and experienced so much that very little excites me now

Cause I probably seen it
I have most likely witnessed it before

Or heard it
I have most likely heard about it before

Or done it
I have most likely done it before

Or watched it
I have most likely watched that thing before

Or read about it or I heard somebody shout it
I have either read about it or heard someone talk about it in a loud manner

Or I listened to some gossip 'bout some cats that mighta lost it
I have heard rumors about people losing their minds

Mind your own and worry what's behind your own door
Focus on your own life and don't meddle in others' affairs

And you can check us when we go back on tour
You can see our performance for yourself when we go on tour

We're off the hook the like your phone when you're fucking
Our performance is so good, it's like when you put your phone off the hook while having sex

We aim our words at your dome, best be ducking
Our lyrics are powerful and you should be prepared to handle them

You dug your own hole that you're now stuck in
You got yourself into the unpleasant situation you are now in

And all these dummies that keep sleeping get tucked in
People who are clueless or ignore what's happening will eventually have to face the results of their actions/inactions

Do what you want
You have the freedom to do what you want

Say what you want
You have the freedom to say what you want

Feel what you want
You have the freedom to feel what you want

It don't matter to us
Our focus is on our own goals, what you do is not our concern

Talk all you want
You can talk as much as you want

Shout all you want
You can shout as much as you want

Doubt all you want
You can doubt all you want

These days, I'm thinking things gotta change, I said
I believe that changes need to be made in current situations

I'm sick of wishin' for the good old days
I am tired of longing for things to be as they were in the past

My mission?
My goal is

Put some fun back in the stage and shut up my own bitchin'
To make the performance more enjoyable and satisfying, and to address my own complaints about the current situation

See I been there done it, twice times a hundred
I have not only experienced it, but also done it many times over

God mad regroup while most of y'all fronted
I took a break and regrouped while others pretended to have the experience and skill that they lack

These days I don't stay blunted by choice
I have chosen not to use drugs anymore

I can breath a lot better standing higher Royce
I feel better and am more capable when I am not under the influence of drugs

And you 'betcha they won't know what to thing 'bout the
They will be surprised by my actions and decisions

And just wait till you see me I'ma make y'all believe me
I will prove to everyone that I am worth believing in

I'm an underground veteran, twenty three and better than
I have been in the game for a long time and am better than most

Ninety nine point nine percent, it's unsettling
It bothers me that so many people do not recognize or appreciate true talent

We're underrated, while the undeserved will get un
We are not getting the recognition we deserve, while others receive it despite not deserving it

Done, it's done, that shit is absurd, but
It's finished, and it is ridiculous

Actions speak louder than complaints and claims
Your actions are more meaningful than your words

We're here for good so don't mistake the name
We are here to stay and our name should not be confused with others'

It's the L E, X I, see O, N,
This is how you spell our name

It ain't even close to over, it's about to begin
Our journey is not ending, but in fact is just starting

Yo, steppin' to the L is disastrous
Taking on our group is a mistake

These days, the girls no longer passin' us
We are now more popular and desirable to women

Went from no praise at all to miraculous
We have gone from receiving no praise to being seen as amazing

Sooner or later they'll be naming cities after us
We will become so famous that cities will be named after us

Better step up and come prepared if you want to try to claim a piece
You need to be ready to compete with us if you want to become successful

Shit, as I write this I'll be thinkin' bout my next release
I am always thinking ahead and planning for my next project

The L will rock the system, ride the rhythm, standing tall
Our group will change the industry and excel at what we do

Keep talkin' madness, we'll keep ignoring y'all
We won't be distracted by others' negativity and will continue to focus on our own path
