(Verse)
Man I feel like cuttin' loose!
Like the night after a drug test
Makin' up for the last 6 months with one breath
Now go and pass that, let it circulate
Cause the ones who know you best are the first to hate
Like an entire community based on fear
Close friends, to foes, FED's, the gang's all here
For any cop who looked me in my face and then lied
Unjustifiably strippin' the plates from my ride
You're just flames to the fires, of satan's desires
Cause paying for the way you've behaved is required
But now I gotta flow so I could mend the pain
Before the clouds gather over top my head to rain
Cause to succeed I believe all I need is my weed
And a beat I could speak on to leave on repeat
And be free to be me, the reason that I rhyme
With the beat intertwined we could read each other's minds
Like the stars met, I know it seems a bit far fetched
But you're the one I've got my eye on and my heart's set
Ayo look at what you done made me do
Now I'm hooked on sharing this intimate space with you
And we was lampin' just like we did in my basement
Got 3 loves including the chick that I came with
1's beats, 2's weed, and the 3's my Queen
But do the first 2 a lot at the expense of my 3
Cause I'm so loyal to rap that I spoil the track
Record so much in fact the booth'll need a toilet intact
See the problem is I know the first 2 go together
But the 3rd is always jealous whenever I'm with the other
So I tried to fuse the 3 and build a bridge
But her toll demands more than I'm willing to give
It is what it is, I did what I did
Lit a spliff of the piff and then slid to the crib
No kids or a wiz, I'm the hopeless one
That's why I smoked a blunt and then wrote for fun
But to be totally honest I'm over the nonsense
But never closed off or opposed to a prospect
But if you got my attention don't tease me
Cause I don't want it if you act greezy
Ayo bust it! Just another sick seductress
That in 6 months will get your wrists clipped in cuffs quick
For dumb shit, now they've got your hands into handcuffs
All from gettin' played by a skandlous enchantress
I'm just a man in a town full of clowns
Surrounded by a crowd of pedafiles on the prowl
And it's wild, with that said it's hard to be into me
Nice guys finish last, R.I.P. chivalry
That's probably why I had to rap alone
So after craftin' a poem I'll just Pass The Bone
Then I'm gone! Into the next rhyme I spew
From one to the next like womanizers do
Cause without a groove I feel incomplete
And you can tell by the smooth way I pimped the beat
So indiscreet that's why punks hit the deck
Cause I mean it when I said "much disrespect"
So I vent with a pen and blunts lit to heads
Checkin' drum kicks while we puff piff till bed
Then a little Listerine fore' I kissed the Queen
Cause there's nothin' like that morning coffee mixed with weed
Didn't get the memo and I must've missed the meme
I'll never settle for security to risk my dream
I'm too set on being worthy of the fate that I'm destined
Till my kids are over 30 waitin' for heaven
To savor the present with faith as intended
And since the good die young take me instead then
Away from these fakes I'm ashamed I've befriended
Who changed for attention and fame I'm offended
A lame tryna gang bang for protection
Couple months later you're front page with your bredren
A rookie tryna play games with the veterans
Selling out is cheap, to maintain is expensive
I'm staying in my self paved lane with a pen grip
Took language and bent it then aimed it and sent it
Cause to this day I've remained independent
And when I wrote it I said it the same as I meant it
What!
