(Warning... Long... Final thread post like this from me) Ahem... Back in the zone Leaving tracks in the stone/ Of the streets Where packing the chrome part of the fashion you own/ From my interactions alone... ....know it’s facts In my songs/ Deny that? Crack up your nose? You’ll get cracked in the dome/ They say they’re more skilled than me... But not a fraction is shown/ ...in bars... on stage... Even on this app on ya phone/ They should be practicin holmes.../ The smart route... Start now... Before I rip their hearts out... And maybe... then we will see if Their true passion is shown/ Be good kids.... You know how you... Act at your home/ With your head in the clouds Similar to air traffic control/ ... Before I make it uncomfortable... Pulling the ground from under you/ Yes, I know the struggle too/ And yes, I had to hustle...Youth/ full of bumps and bruises Drugs and guns... Plenty jams/ Those scars don’t represent me... I just know who I am/ And I’m beyond that/ Used to doubt myself... Soul searching... like Where you find that?/ I see worse rappers getting theirs.../ Diamond in the rough... where’s mine at?/ Wondering where my minds at... ...Back then, but Educated myself/ Focused on my dreams but wasn’t really Taking the steps/ Decided... if I can’t make the kind of music labels accept/ Forget being labeled... All in... this turn Make a label myself/ Check for me/ I’ve got the recipe/ The Owner... speak respectfully/ Destiny/ From living recklessly/ To living next to seas/ Haters just can’t get to me/ Intellectually/ Superior... There are levels Steps and peaks/ My vision’s one Most won’t get to see/ Never blinded by short sightedness/ I admit... Your support helped inspire this/ Into deep thoughts I abyss... Sometimes the actions that speak Loudest are the quietest/ ... So when my rhymes Are present Don’t deny the gift/.... Behind the scenes... Real ones know what this means.../ When you’re at war with yourself internally But acting serene/ Unsure of what awaits you Faith due... so you take that leap/ And you decide... To stop living your life meaninglessly/ I stopped doing what made them happy But what had meaning to me/ My goals are keeping me awake Because I’m dreaming to sleep/
