State
Mind Lyrics

I'm tryna paint a picture that the frame can't hold
I am attempting to convey a message or express myself in a way that surpasses the limitations of conventional art

A pic that's engraved with my name and my soul
A representation that immortalizes my identity and essence

And nothing could really be the same as it grows
As my art evolves, it becomes unique and incomparable

I'm trying to maintain the set of morals that's in stone
I strive to uphold a steadfast set of principles and values

With my back turned I could feel another lost soul
Even when I am not directly facing them, I can sense the presence of someone who is lost or wandering

So I can't turn, making sure they find home
I refuse to ignore them and make it my responsibility to help them find a sense of belonging

When my hands hurt, I'll build another huge home they could dwell
Even when faced with difficulties, I will persist in creating a safe space for those in need

Cause heaven only knows time tells
The passing of time reveals the true impact and significance of my actions

My trail should be an engine, when they listen, they find missing
Through my art and words, I hope to inspire, motivate, and provide answers or solutions to their struggles

They don't have to go solicit
They don't have to seek external sources for guidance or support

Cause the answer in my living
Because within my own experiences and existence lies the answers they seek

Feeling like they nerves
They feel anxious or nervous

Ready like rehearsed
Prepared and confident, as if they have practiced or rehearsed

My hearse ain't appearing till I'm done playing nurse
Death is not imminent until I have fulfilled my role of nurturing and caring for others

Treat this rap like a purse
Value and prioritize my rap music as if it were a precious possession, like a purse

Fill it fat till it burst
Fill it with abundant content and meaning until it overflows

On the laps ima work
I will continuously work on improving and perfecting my craft

Cause I gotta reimburse
Because I feel compelled to give back or repay through my music

I'm a vessel
I am a medium or conduit through which something greater can be expressed

I'll never lessen
I will never diminish or weaken the impact and significance of my art

Cause my blessings only bless me if I'm blessing through these lessons that I'm telling
The blessings I receive from my art are only meaningful if they can positively impact others through the lessons I share

Nowadays most raps bout traps and bread
In contemporary times, the majority of rap music revolves around themes of crime and material wealth

Got fake dudes feeling like they hood Instead
Inauthentic individuals now identify with or try to portray themselves as part of the 'hood' culture

Of embracing who you are
Instead of fully accepting and celebrating one's true identity

You special you a star
Recognizing that each individual is unique and possesses their own brilliance

String to the real like guitar it's a scar
Connecting to authenticity and truth, just like the strings of a guitar, which may leave an indelible mark or impact

That you can't let go because there's not another you
It is crucial to hold onto that uniqueness because there is no replacement or replica of oneself

And no one else could fuel any engine to be you
No one else can provide the drive and motivation to become your true self

Blues clues could find the blueprint to you's
Even with minimal information or clues, someone can discern and understand the essence of your being

And no one else's feet could fit in your shoes
Nobody else can fully comprehend or relate to your unique experiences and perspective

Nowadays all artists wannna do the same things
Presently, many artists aspire to create similar content or follow the same trends

Give flies on the main stream main things
Catering to superficial or trivial matters to gain popularity and success on the mainstream platform

808s in the air stream
Heavy bass sounds prevalent in contemporary rap music

To make way
To clear a path or gain attention

While poetry in rap seems oh so gray
Compared to that, the incorporation of heartfelt poetry in rap music appears dull or lacking vibrancy

My style isn't hype for the quote real
My artistic style may not be considered trendy or popular amongst those deemed 'real' or authentic

But I'll fight so the future kids they know real
Nevertheless, I will persist in creating music that resonates with future generations, ensuring they recognize and appreciate authenticity

These trap rappers at the bottom of the fraction
The trap rappers, who dominate the music scene, are actually at the lower end or less significant portion of the whole

Some are at the bar but a bunch are lacking passion
While a few may be successful, many of them lack genuine enthusiasm or dedication

This is the beginning of something beautiful
The start of an artistic endeavor that promises to be magnificent and transformative

Love, Joy, Pain, Patience, Resilience
These are the emotions and qualities that we need to navigate and endure life

Lessons we need to survive
These experiences and lessons are essential for our survival and growth

See, my music is designed to color the lives of those who feel lost, unnoticed, misunderstood
My music is intentionally crafted to bring vibrancy, meaning, and understanding to individuals who may feel disconnected or overlooked

See, we've all been sculpted differently
Each of us has been uniquely shaped and molded by our experiences and circumstances

But that's the whole point
However, this diversity is what makes life meaningful and significant

That's the Mind Artistry
This is the essence and expression of my artistic vision and creativity
