Doing numbers on a day to day

Okay I wonder why these haters
Wanna see a nigga fade away
Fade away fade away
Been trapping from day one
Mehn you know its in my DNA
They tried to feed us hate
To eliminate the love
Never had support
But yet we stood firm
They took away my rights
So I became a lefty
All them politics and propaganda
Dont impress me
They like how I make a kilo from a brick
Was againts the law
But I made it look legit
Ph city thug
Yh I love that gang shit
Running from the law
When we should chasing dreams
Oh

You cant sign a king
You think this is crazy shit
But thats just how we live
Tell ya

You must not know who this is
They said I was lost
But somehow I found a gift
Supernatural glow that's right I shine bright

Supersonic flows I always got the ryhme right
Ask about me yh im pretty but I'm not nice
Pay me what you owe in full
Or we gonn' long night
Second chance I never stood a chance in first place
Can't tell you how I grew up
Just you know it was the worst way
Never try beat the law
Cuz that's a lost case
I told my lawyer beat the charge
And prove they all fakes
Okay I wonder why these haters
Wanna see a nigga fade away
Fade away Fade away
Been trapping from day one
Mehn you know its in my DNA

The song "Fade" by Nigerian artist M.B. features lyrics that mix themes of resilience in the face of adversity and a desire for success. Right from the start, the lyrics are confrontational, with the line "OG told me, Kill em all" repeated three times before changing the final "Kill em all" to "Kill em soft." M.B. is introducing himself as someone who is willing to take on any challenge and dominate it, but not at the expense of others.
The lyrics also reference the criticisms leveled at M.B. by his detractors, who want to see him "fade away." He responds by saying that he has been "trapping from day one," indicating that he has been working hard since he was young to achieve success. This work ethic is reinforced with the line, "I wonder why these haters wanna see a nigga fade away," which implies that he has only ever been moving forward and never backwards. He further adds that this drive is something that is inherent in his DNA and has been passed down from his ancestors.
The second half of the song takes on a more defiant tone, with M.B. acknowledging that he has faced many obstacles on his way to becoming a successful artist. These include being denied justice and his rights as a citizen, as well as being forced to operate in a criminal underworld. Despite these challenges, he has maintained his integrity and persevered, refusing to be weighed down by the negativity and propaganda that surrounds him.
Overall, "Fade" is a song that speaks to M.B.'s story of overcoming hardship and achieving success. The lyrics are a testament to his determination and drive, as well as his refusal to let anyone or anything hold him back.

Road to Barber
Well explained tips! would recommend!
in barberschool we learned to put your zero line in with your clippers and flip that line out with the trimmer, instead of putting in the line with the trimmer itself. In time it will not save you allot. but will get you out of the struggle when you want to remove the zero line.
keep it up man! love to see your content!

Thank you so much for sharing these valuable tips I got a lot out of it like pulling the skin, tapping with the shaver and so forth the first line can be tuff to remove.
