I had a flashback Of me and the rat pack, and it was 2009 He had the coke in the backpack If we find who buys He would spare a few lines Skim off the top enough times By the end of the night we get out of our minds And break it out like a feeding frenzy On the sidewalk People couldn’t believe their eyes I’m not embarrassed to say I consider those moments the best of my life And still when I think of it, I get this feeling of pride in me that I can’t describe Feeling a rumbling inside We ignored the signs of thunder outside A reflection of something denied But we were just young and trying to get high I ain’t gon' lie I’m surprised most of us managed to make it alive Without getting killed or locked up for life A couple occasions, believe me, they tried We were just big kids Before the days of facing big bids I'm coming back home for a visit And to see how much taller your kid is And see how much bigger your crib is Though I'm knowing the weight on your back is much bigga Roles have been shifted, now u a giver Back in the day was my hitta This rap shit don’t feed you The whole family need you You trying to go legal They way that they treat you The pay isn’t equal Your pathway beneath you is split between lethal and peaceful Stuck at a standstill It feel like the weight of the world is pressed up against you You clean out your glock, evaluate your mental Cock it back, face it right against your temple Say what you want about me but Don't ever say that I forgot to say thank you You taught me there isn't a thing in this world that I couldn't handle Habits that we allowed Issues we disavowed Behaviors that made us proud Manifest in the now You know I’m foreal I’m sliding till I don’t have time to kill If I threw off the vibe I’m just kinda pilt My environment so violent, still And I got survivors guilt Yeah I got survivors guilt I ride till I die but I’m driving tonight Cuz I don’t trust nobody behind the wheel I got survivors guilt You know my life is real I got no time to chill I got survivors guilt Maybe I’m jaded Recently feeling like playing these games is so overrated Overstated, oversaturated Over promises, exaggerated You see what people will do just make it? It’s crazy For some it’s the only way out Now they're pounding the walls just to break out Is it purely for passion or payout? Barbecues at the safe house Mob meetings at the steak house Trap out the whole story But that wasn’t half of the whole story And this is all you had to hold for me Nothing but loyalty Mobbin, I listen to Jack Look at these new rappers glowin up Growin up, they didn’t listen to rap Listen to trap But ain’t been in the trap Now we are all in accordance Illuminati called my phone I ignored it My innermost thoughts and my secrets recorded The promises look good when you can’t afford it My car is imported I Honda Accord it The family support it The rest could ignore it What’s really important The people you love or these tourists? I bring it back to the source We in the streets, building up with my community The difference between you and me? You're breaking your back just to fit in this industry There is no impunity Speak about culture, let’s see it reflect on your payroll I went to ya studio and it was whole lotta white people sniffin on yayo People want out of the struggle so bad, they’d rather have labels enslave you These rappers aren’t able to see that the promise their selling is really a fable They see your hunger as desperation You feel them uppers, then they take you under It takes me back to the summer, We would’ve jacked them when we was younger I had to cut off some homies Cuz animosity, they not moving properly It got em all actin phony I talk about how growing, he act like I owe him And If he could, he'd probably clone me Thank god for my real ones I’d be so lonely But nobody own me, even if you posted my bail You can’t my freedom, my soul ain’t for sale Yeah, my soul ain't for sale Bring it back

Jenny, I've been waiting Forever and I know Nothing really matters When all the good things go Jenny I've been waiting For many months on end Just for you to tell me When the cold front ends Jenny I've been waiting For it to be made clear I don't think I've seen it When everything was here Jenny I've been waiting Forever and I know Nothing really matters Just tell me to go

Down in the water A dream comes alive And wanders in the flow Of an endless tide Land without promise A wind drifting through A ruin in the deep That fills the sky Time gives a blessing To those who cry For escape from the grave Of the waking mind The splendor of life Fills me up with dread I’m awake, and asleep As the river bends A final emission For hands held high Be the truth, and the blood When the evening dies Embrace the meaning Of ages spent In the shit of my youth And the bended knee

I'm the one you sold I'm the hurt that waits out the window All I have is this shell Please break me slow I have no house No hand to hold Maybe I'll lay down awhile and think about all this A polished statue, a word that was never told All I have is this shell Please break me slow I have no house No hand to hold All I want is this space Please take me home You gotta give You gotta know

you whispered something to me it was so fragrant I saw no meaning you found oasis in my mirage and I'll let you get lost there I'm not afraid of you anymore something about it gets me feeling like I'm more I'm not afraid to move through the storm it's better than silence in the Drylands of your own there is no moisture to cry away these fossils of selves, my forgotten history some things are better left buried I'll let them suffer in peace I'd rather suffer in peace I'm not afraid of you anymore something about it gets me feeling like I'm more I'm not afraid to move through the storm it's better than silence in the Drylands of your own (I'll make it on my, I'll make my own I like it on my, I like it on my own)

[hexosphere] Don't fall off I know I wanna go Losing time on this game no one knows [doefriends] You wanna go home when you're already home and you feel so alone when you're with your own You wanna go back to where you left off and you walk in the door and the lights left off Maybe it will kill me but I won't mind It's the first time I've felt alive I feel alive
