Paradise
Logic feat. Jesse Boykins III Lyrics

Now this that SpottieOttieDopaliscious, hella vicious
This song has a similar vibe to OutKast's 'SpottieOttieDopaliscious' and brings a powerful, intense energy.

I wonder where is this, hold up
I'm curious about the location or situation I find myself in, so I pause to reflect.

Get the fuck out my business, show enough
I want people to mind their own business and leave me alone, without a doubt.

We roll up then load up
We gather together and prepare ourselves for whatever is coming next.

Just a bastard born in a wedlock
I was born out of wedlock and it has shaped my identity and experiences.

Close to the Earth like a dreadlock
I have a strong connection to nature and feel grounded, just like someone with dreadlocks.

Got my sights on deadlock
I am determined to confront and overcome the challenges and obstacles in my life.

Visions of my enemy in a headlock
I imagine defeating and gaining control over my enemy, asserting my power.

Feel like I'm livin' in Bedrock, surrounded by rubble
I feel like I'm living in a chaotic and unstable environment, reminiscent of the fictional town Bedrock.

Just a youngin' in trouble
I am a young person facing difficulties and hardships.

Took a shot and then made it a double
I took a risk, faced a challenge, and not only succeeded but exceeded expectations.

This that food for thought, my school ain't taught me good
This song offers deep, thought-provoking content that wasn't taught in my formal education.

No one greedy inside my hood
In my neighborhood, there are no individuals driven solely by greed.

But a tablespoon of this baking soda gon' make it good, like it should
Even a small amount of illicit substances can improve the situation, though it may be just temporary.

That's ignant isn't it
That's ignorant, isn't it?

Hold up now wait, take a look at my pigment
Wait a moment and consider the color of my skin.

Tell me again, we can never be kin based on the color of my skin
Repeat to me the idea that we can't be family simply because our skin colors are different.

Matter of fact your lips ain't thin
Actually, your lips are not thin.

That's a club I don't wanna be in
I do not want to be a part of that group or association.

My DNA get done integrated
My DNA is a blend of different backgrounds and cultures, creating a unique integration.

My God it's innovative
Wow, it's truly innovative and groundbreaking.

That's a million miles away from administrative
That's a huge leap beyond traditional administrative systems or processes.

I fuckin' hate it, anyway
I really dislike it, regardless.

Long ago, way back in the day in a place called West Deer Park
A long time ago, in a location named West Deer Park

I was like 5, sit in my mama lap while she would drive
When I was around 5 years old, I would sit on my mother's lap as she drove.

Police would knock on the door, I would hide
The police would come to our door, and I would hide to avoid any trouble.

Then they would talk to me and I would lie
Then they would speak to me, and I would not tell the truth.

Hopin' I, don't die on this side of a .45
Hoping that I don't lose my life due to violence involving a .45 caliber firearm.

Then they would handcuff my mama and take her away
Afterward, they would handcuff my mother and take her away.

Over down on the driveway
They would take her to a location near our driveway.

Fast forward a couple of years and I'm bumpin' that Sade
Jump ahead a few years, and I'm listening to the music of Sade, enjoying it.

Fast forward a couple of more and I'm bumpin' that 'My Way'
A few years later, I'm listening to the song 'My Way', appreciating it.

By Sinatra, so high, so high, oh my, God damn
Frank Sinatra's version of 'My Way' makes me feel exhilarated and uplifted.

Now I'm a grown man, oh man
Now I'm an adult, and it's an interesting experience.

With the fuckin' habits of a the plan
I have developed certain habits or routines that are characteristic of my personality.

I know, as soon as I write this I might just go crazy
I'm aware that expressing my thoughts through writing may drive me to the point of insanity.

Anything but lazy, I can't sleep
I am anything but lazy and find it difficult to sleep.

Cause if I do, there's another motherfucker wide awake on the creep
Because if I sleep, there is someone else who is fully awake and plotting something malicious.

Tryna kill you and he will too
This person is actively trying to harm me and would not hesitate to do so.

We livin' like civilized people, but far from equal
We may appear to be living in a civilized society, but there is still a significant lack of equality.

I hope I live a long life and get to see my sequel
I desire to live a long life and experience the next chapter or stage of my journey.

My son, my seed
Referring to my child as a representation of myself and a continuation of my legacy.

Watch 'em grown and then watch 'em lead
Observing my child's growth and development, witnessing them taking on leadership roles.

Let me proceed, bumpin' that that Californication, by the Red Hot
Allow me to continue, while listening to the song 'Californication' by the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Fuck around and then hit 'em with a red dot
Engaging in a reckless or risky situation, potentially leading to a confrontation or harm.

Y'all better not me fuckin' with me
You all better not mess with me or provoke me.

Who, him? Yeah, me, I be the God MC
Referring to myself as the supreme or divine master of ceremonies (MC).

Follow me to paradise
Join me on a journey to a state of bliss and happiness.

Follow, follow me
Come along and follow my lead.

I remember my life long ago in my adolescence
I recall memories from my earlier years, during my teenage phase.

I could feel the presence in my residence
I could sense a certain energy or atmosphere within my living space.

Hesitant even thought it was evident
I was hesitant, despite the fact that it was clear or obvious.

I should get the fuck
I should leave or distance myself from the situation.

I know something is wrong
I am aware that something is not right or out of place.

Yeah, I know something is wrong
Yes, I am certain that something is amiss or not as it should be.

Feel like my mind gone
I feel as if my mind is lost or not functioning properly.

I know I play along, I might drown in this song
I pretend to go along with the situation, but deep down, I may feel overwhelmed or suffocated.

Huh, I'm so focused, huh, I know you know this
I am highly concentrated and aware, and I know you are aware of it too.

Uh, when I make a move and feel like no one notice
When I take action or make a decision, it seems as if no one pays attention or acknowledges it.

Uh, when I quit my job, uh, I fuckin' noticed
When I resigned from my job, I definitely noticed the impact and importance of my decision.

Shot made me been unnoticed, huh, but maybe not
My previous actions and choices may have gone unnoticed by others, but that might not be entirely true.

Feel like this minimum wage is contagious
I perceive the negative effects of earning a minimum wage to be spreading and affecting others.

So outrageous my age is on my mind
It's incredibly shocking and concerning that my age is always at the forefront of my thoughts.

Walking to work and I go blind
As I walk to work, I metaphorically lose sight or become unaware of my surroundings.

Sippin' on that Koolaid, gettin' big wig money, that [?]
Engaging in frivolous and superficial activities while pretending to have significant wealth or influence.

Look around and see people with no class, like snow on a school day
As I observe my surroundings, I notice individuals lacking refinement or sophistication, much like snow disrupting a school day.

Y'all can't do what I do, do what I do
You all are incapable of doing what I am able to do.

Starin' out this window like, like Erykah Badu
I find myself gazing out of a window, similar to how Erykah Badu is often depicted in her music videos.

Livin' life how I do is crazy
Living my life the way I do may be perceived as unconventional or wild.

This shit never amaze me
These experiences or situations never cease to surprise or astonish me.

But I still let it phase me and I don't know why
However, I still allow it to affect or bother me, even though I'm not sure why.

All I know is my mind racing
The only thing I am certain of is that my mind is constantly racing or full of thoughts.

A million miles a minute, the second I'm in it yeah I be pacing
My thoughts and mental processes move at an incredibly fast pace, keeping me restless and on edge.

Bitch I'm back again
I have returned, asserting my presence and significance.

Been here since way back when, now let that shit begin
I have been present and active since a long time ago, so let the real action or event commence.

This album 2 but this song was written before the first
Although this is the second album, this particular song was composed before any songs from the first album.

My mind racing, I'm sick of pacing, I feel the thirst
My thoughts are constantly racing, and I'm tired of pacing back and forth; it intensifies my desire or hunger for more.

Of those around me that down me and pray on my demise
Referring to the individuals who criticize or wish for my downfall.

But it only makes it that much better when I rise
Their negativity or attempts to bring me down only serve to make my eventual success or rise even more rewarding.

This for the people that been through it and couldn't do it
This song is dedicated to those who have experienced adversity or challenges but were unable to overcome them.

Had a vision but blew it, while haters screaming 'I knew it!'
These individuals had a clear vision or goal but failed to achieve it, all while facing criticism and negativity from haters who take pleasure in saying 'I told you so!'

This is real, so real
This song offers a raw, genuine perspective and is deeply authentic.

The type of shit that make you feel like you gotta kill
The emotional intensity or realness of this song may evoke strong feelings or emotions within the listener.

Most of these people will never hit fruition
The majority of these individuals will never achieve their full potential or reach their goals.

Paying tuition when they should've just listened their intuition
They invest their time, money, and effort in formal education, when they should have trusted and followed their own intuition or instincts.

Now they wishing they was switching up their lifestyle
Now they regret not changing their lifestyle or making different choices.

All alone with no one to dial
Feeling isolated or lonely, without anyone to reach out to for support or connection.

I'm just a man, I got problems, understand
I'm only human and face my own set of challenges and difficulties, so please try to comprehend.

This is all I ever wanted, yes I do it for the fans
This is the fulfillment of my aspirations and dreams, and I do it all for the sake of my fans.

And I ain't perfect
I am not flawless or without faults.

I've questioned if this life was even worth it
I have had moments where I doubted whether this life or career path was truly worthwhile.

Cause all the people care about is what lies on the surface
Because all people seem to care about are superficial or superficial aspects and appearances.

And my purpose is to do it like it ain't never been done
My purpose is to approach my craft or endeavors with a unique, innovative perspective.

Always keep it real and remember where I'm from, now
I consistently stay true to myself and maintain a connection to my roots and origins.

My mind racing, I'm sick of pacing, I feel the thirst
My thoughts are constantly racing, and I'm tired of pacing back and forth; it intensifies my desire or hunger for more.

Of those around me that down me and pray on my demise
Referring to the individuals who criticize or wish for my downfall.

But it only makes it that much better when I rise
Their negativity or attempts to bring me down only serve to make my eventual success or rise even more rewarding.
