All Day, come find me in the cut, no blood stain,
On my shirt, Kumite with the Feng Shui,
Let the wind and the water be the gateway
To the next wave, I be on it all Day,
Come find me in the cut no blood stain,
On my shirt Kumite with the Feng Shui,
Let the wind and the water be the gateway to the next wave
All this substance, I’ve been diffusing, when I rhyme it’s like I’m using
Everything you’re saving for your prime I’m abusing
Back turned to the yesterdays I was granted like Susi
Now even when you hating you must co like Putin
Don't nobody do it like this, we're new prophets
Who you know to keep it on sleeves, without cufflinks
Boredom, glazed in loose budgets
We should be hearing snores in the lanes you’re huff n'puffing
This dat, meditation with poltergeist
It’s didactic, revelation book 21, 25 on it
When I rise I burn the night, pop the glass ceiling
Whitewashing and crash courses,
For practice, I bet a habit, I bet a culture
While you bask in it!
Wearing orange for Pete’s sake
Your path ethics don’t align with your missed takes
Do you blow your nose before you feast on your fish cakes
Who's a two-faced Jackson?
Cold yet you put me on a stage and it’s arson
My status and my gang ain’t made it to your conscience by accident
Be blessed by my presence or be murdered by excellence
From this point on… It’s all getting ridiculous
This EP is epiphanous
To you, you never knew of us
The clamour and bula bos
Thats Luimnach for ohh la la
Solaar’s bouge de la
Tout a commence la-bas
But I don’t lead a bougie life
Gone for broke for methuselahs
A black box of chocolat
That’s how I have you shook a lot
You amplified goo goo gags
Ran you to a cul de sac
I’d do it one more time for all my people in the back
Living on borrowed time, thrice the charm, but these are facts
I’m a master, you are jacks
Miss me like bureaucrats
Or do me more like Doja cat Moiiiii
Kiss of death was up for grabs like crab claws for hearts
All Day, come find me in the cut
No blood stain, on my shirt Kumite
With the Feng Shui, Let the wind and the water
Be the gateway to the next wave, I be on it
All Day, come find me in the cut
No blood stain, on my shirt Kumite
With the Feng Shui, Let the wind and the water
Be the gateway to the next wave, I be on it
Watching television too long
Got blurred visions
Fell in love with Hip Hop for all
The wrong reasons
And i multiplied my blemishes often
It caused divisions
In my circle since it took me like yonks
To make decisions
I was digging for some knowledge
With no worries like Knxwledge
With My head kept down on my phone
I missed my calling
When I lifted up my head
I'm at home alone Macaulay
Only without all the money
My Home Alone ain't funny
I couldn't stand it I set up a coup d'état
To take control of narratives calling it coup de grace
This shall outlast your posthumous
In the narolane, I rode the new formula
To make your soul dance this is medicinal
Although the monster lies in the bed of the meticulous
Embarrassment of options, not all to utilise
Consequences leap and fireback on you and I
That’s the trigger to the greatness metrics, my do or die
Knowing that has got me doing more and less trying
Leaning forwards, the manifesto be in italic
Real heavy at the base, so the stance is truly phallic
This dat, meditation with poltergeist
It’s didactic, revelation book 21, 25 on it
When I rise I raise a glass, for the lives given
Sacrificed for my freedom and higher living
Bad religion ain’t the tradition
If I’m Frank with it
Did it only coz greed pays
And the authentic takes longer to stimulate
You’ve been salivating, grab a lamp it’s genie day

I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only there to slow my odyssey (Slow my odyssey, slow my odyssey yeah)
I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only wanna steal my energy (Steal my energy, steal my energy yeah)
Tell the everybody
Strike a pose (Hold up)
Satan get behind me
I see you in the picture laying low
Trying to kiss my bottom like Blarney
Peace was a state of mind I chose
But you want me warring
I’m walking at the pace of an Arabian horse
That’s me and my army
There’s beauty in the cause if you know where to find it
And bag it like bandits
Blessed by the blindness
And blissfully, speaking truth to the power that be,
Parallel-ly making moves to empower the weak,
Tell every tops and turves in the allegory
Taking the lead, in a time when we need it the most,
Sick and tired of ignoring your tropes,
I’m getting out the boat,
Pen in my hand we rewriting the prose
I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only there to slow my odyssey (Slow my odyssey, slow my odyssey yeah)
I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only wanna steal my energy (Steal my energy, steal my energy yeah)
When you come around I’m ready to shut you down
MuRli’s coming with his army here to catch you now
You know, know, know, know,
So what you got’ do, what you got’ do?
When you come around I’m ready to shut you down
MuRli’s coming with his army here to catch you now
You know, know, know, know,
So what you got’ do, what you got’ do?
Like a Babushka doll I was trapped in my mind
Thinking I was right all the time
Fought my friends when they moved on and left me behind
Taking their betrayal for a crime
But I wonder what was mine
Prisoner of my own bottom line
Took a little while to realise it wasn’t real, a mime
My pity party tricks were sublime
Coz it was all by design
So was the decline, suspended on my shoulders,
No styling, feet on a snowboard I was
Slope-sliding, breakthrough was a boulder
I’m onboard like the captain
On a trip to destination unknown but I’m right in
Every line that I stepped in, Make a mark somersault onto next
I ain’t settling, on the surface, I’m striping
But it ain’t real till I’m surfing in it, I say
Slow my odyssey, slow my odyssey yeah
Steal my energy, steal my energy yeah
Only there to slow my odyssey

You feel me…
Yeah I got you Jimmy,
Yo! Uhm we do this though
You get me?
G, I see you
Seen ups and downs in my lifetime, never hit a rock like this one
Foes and lovers I lost but I never bore a cross like this one
Arms wide open I’m found on my knees but I trust not this one
I'm but a slave to my memories, man I could pass on this one
I can’t go back
Stick the plan let the years go by
Question marks on my mind all night
I don’t even know what I ever got right
Seems so near but I can’t go there
Still I owe this year for the love it shared
All this pain wanna take my life
How can I sleep with my mind in a fight
Daily mental battles in my local
Intrusive thoughts In my local
There's bills and pills in my local
But the mandem are never that vocal
There's serious addiction in My local
Disturbing violence in my local
All sorts of abuse in my local
But the galem are never that vocal
Seen ups and downs in my lifetime, never hit a rock like this one
Foes and lovers I lost but I never bore a cross like this one
Arms wide open I’m found on my knees but I trust not this one
I'm but a slave to my memories, man I could pass on this one
Seen ups and downs in my lifetime, never hit a rock like this one
Foes and lovers I lost but I never bore a cross like this one
Arms wide open I’m found on my knees but I trust not this one
I'm but a slave to my memories, She said
She said,
I'm an actual slave on the run so don't you get too bossy around me
12 years of my life in the field yet but nobody makes a movie about it
Always had a Big Mac on my back so everybody thought I was loving it
Even had a few A-list on my team but Ed was the only one sharing it
I used to get hits like pop songs
Nowadays I get shunned like dog dung
Cuh my soul got punched by top dawgs 'fore they label me overrated and they moved on
No voice so no choice
Just another X on the invoice
With that I hope to pull a Knievel
Touch the sky coz down there's evil
I woke up in need of a crutch
All I got was a big hand on my
Been this way since I was like twelve
Always had a reason to FML
It was bad enough coping with all these Ls
Now I see a man and I see hell
Like oh that's him oh that's them
That's them man that took me at home
Put me in the back of the van then drove
Sold by the hands I turn to for love
You came to pull I came to use
You hoping to get loose
I'm trying to get you
To help me find something new
To electrify my soul
Cuh day n night I'm getting close to unplugging the fuse
So please don't give me a better excuse
Seen ups and downs in my lifetime, never hit a rock like this one
Foes and lovers I lost but I never bore a cross like this one
Arms wide open I’m found on my knees but I trust not this one
I'm but a slave to my memories, man I could pass on this one
Seen ups and downs in my lifetime, but I can't
Foes and lovers I lost but
Arms wide open I’m found on my knees but I trust not this one
I'm but a slave to my memories, man I could pass on this one
Olvidarte!

The Belly

I’ve been praying for a way out this sorry predicament facing my people out here
Came in the world with a label I never signed to, why you follow me everywhere
They be watching our movement, hoping we would slip
So when I fly, I keep it low like a zip
That’s open without my consent, that’s a blip
We make it to the finish line they just skip
The channel so our victories never seen
By generations so we start it again
So many times that by now it just seems
Like we’re only created to entertain
Big dreams keeping me on retainer
Run the tracks till we run out of trainers
Shoutout my doubters I couldn’t repay
Them for all of the time they’ll never regain
There ain’t not match, it’d be lopsided
My full backs stay rock solid
Always out of control like it’s autopilot
Smooth operating, we would love Sade
By algorithm I’m overrated
My father knows I’m underpaid
Mother's waiting for what’s on the way
Soon I’ll give a reason to wake up late
Paid lotta money to service the belly
No fee for my peace, these problems are free
Watch out for my lips! I know it's prophetic
I’ve seen all the smoke in your ears when I speak
I’ve been impatient to come out the jig-
Saw too many puppets I know I don’t fit
Please believe when they tell you they’re sick
Coz I’ve been in the room I won’t show you the pics
Paid lotta money to service the belly
No fee for my peace, these problems are free
Watch out for my lips! I know it's prophetic
I’ve seen all the smoke in your ears when I speak
I’ve been impatient to come out the jig-
Saw too many puppets I know I don’t fit
Please believe when they tell you they’re sick
Coz I’ve been in the room I won’t show you the pics
You and I have a lot to say
About the way our countries are run today
About the type of music that you ought to make
To get the radio plays if that is still germane
Who am I to know, maybe it is in vain
I'm just leaving you a note for the sake of change
Give a man a taste of a shooting range
Reach for the earmuffs cuh my music bangs
Should I tread the path of those who keep the dream alive all the while leading a life in a bus lane, maybe never make it to your hall of fame
But they're never too far from the ones we acclaim
Shall their, legacy die before I wake
I'll put an extended track on every mixtape
And kill every verse like Wayne in 08
Hand a tko to the game like AJ
The real in my elation ship
With this society based on a Hollywood script
I live and learn observe the curves
The twists and turns to the point of no return
And earn my G's a spell in the directors seat
If we should believe in the democracy
Then I see
You and I breaking G R O U N D
To make the I M P A C T
We have been talking about it
We have been waiting for it
But those who don’t want it to happen
Are paying good money for it
We feed off the change and we shut up?
I’ll be taking my chance in the run up
To whatever it is we have coming up
Best way to pay you back is not to let up
We keep the rhythm alive
Ready or not we arrived
Liars be acting surprised
That look on your face has no price
We keep the rhythm alive
Ready or not we arrived
Liars be acting surprised
That look on your face has no price

How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
Thought I had a leader
He was a deceiver
Caused a lot of grief I
Can’t afford a breather
Prayed that you would be alive
Long enough to see it die
And watch me on the frontline
Promise it’ll be worth your while
Raised to believe we were all
Same but it proved to be wrong
They said we’ll never belong
Hold that thought, I won’t be long
Side by side, we will cross these lines
And if it ever goes sour, we will shine beyond those lights
Side by side, we will climb these walls
And if it needs to fall down, it would be by design
Who’s gonna be dead to get you aroused
Now you so upset that you blacking out
Help me figure out what you lot about
Talk about changes, like you ain’t noticed how
Everybody looked like you in your workplace
That’s why you using words like… in your office
Unchallenged, that’s how you love it, just enough for profits
Still you are so insecure
Raised to believe we were all
Same but it proved to be wrong
They said we’ll never belong
Hold that thought, I won’t be long
Side by side, we will cross these lines
And if it ever goes sour, we will shine beyond these lights
Side by side, we will climb these walls
And if it needs to fall down, it would be by design
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
How we survive, PTSD on the side
They know we fly, that’s why they envy our lives
