LIVE 02:59
Long life to the Kings though the checks don’t pay we are changing the game everyday Long life to the queens who had never got the shot I did, but they came and slayed Long life to the gang in the other other shift just to add a little cheese to the bread And one time for the legends on the spaceship though you are gone, you will never be dead Thoughts older than the century Open heart surgery you see when I’m performing gotta praise me for the bravery That shook the macho out of a bloke scared to be sensitive, but I know him like a relative Splitting opinions with geometrical symmetry I try to be a mirror to winners who lost the empathy For the less fortunate all for pure reasons Failed to keep it hidden when they stumble upon secrets, it’s regrets that creep in, Slipping through the cracks like pulverised rocks in my hands, As I struggle to cup 'em like breast size Feeling in ya stomach you’re mistaking for butterflies Is the birth of the true son of a lie As good as the grief it hides Portrayed as liberty you won’t even see from Brooklyn Heights Missing the bigger picture of that book we like treating it like Birthday suits under red lights Long life to the Kings though the checks don’t pay we are changing the game everyday Long life to the queens who had never got the shot I did, but they came and slayed Long life to those in the other other shift just to add a little cheese to the bread And one time for the legends on the spaceship though you are gone, you will never be dead Next time we link, we gon’ set it off Play all day, take the next off They don’t want beef they ain’t Stroganoff The future’s yours, that’s the trade off Next time we link, we gon’ set it off Play all day, take the next off They don’t want beef they ain’t Stroganoff The future’s yours, that’s the trade off Man of the people, the lay and the pope I left a void in my bloodline, they’re filling with hope Mileage to show and still got a country to go My feet wet on the road to get my ducks in a row Life harder than calculus I still pick up the pen and expect something miraculous The opulence of graveyards, battlefields and crayons Playing medium like seance, gone before the paeans You mimic the greats you’ll never be ‘em Me I follow God, in case I have to beat ‘em Humble like the beginning of caterpillars and beetles That’s how I passenger seat my Ws like BMs One step ahead of the foe like Willem No cash but I walked the line, you saw the film And ran out in the streets, tried to portray the villain I guess you need a way to make it thrilling Long life to the Kings though the checks don’t pay we are changing the game everyday Long life to the queens who had never got the shot I did, but they came and slayed Long life to those in the other other shift just to add a little cheese to the bread And one time for the legends! Though you are gone, you will never be dead Next time we link, we gon’ set it off Play all day, take the next off They don’t want beef they ain’t Stroganoff The future’s yours, that’s the trade off Next time we link, we gon’ set it off Play all day, take the next off They don’t want beef they ain’t Stroganoff The future’s yours, that’s the trade off

NO EXIT 02:21
Walk like you talk So I go loud, guitar So I can run, non stop Till the sun goes dark, Like tar Never been nice, an ogre Skating on ice, it’s over If I ever fall I’m going down with you all Walk like you talk So I go hard on the drum Make a goats skin blush, no make up Whenever I go off I get so dumb, can’t teach me enough But I stay switched on, on your neck no love Is gonna be found, it’s never been lost Between you and us, go ahead or a-ball You will not Buy my trust with Ps like nuts Chorus No exit! only way out is to face it No exit! New order, new decade No exit! You can either bow or you best me No exit! No bad luck, it was destined Crawl till you fall Who you gonna call No halo on this Paul It’s Saul in disguise eyes on you soul Feed me rappers or feed me greed Grudge, beef lest you bleed For a treat, it’s a threat no pumpkin seeds Carved out of this seasons orange theme It’s a poor range beam if you’re signalling him The end isn’t near, this is what it seems What’s a meta for? I’m crushing real dreams What’s a nightmare? I’m burning dark horses How could I care? I was raised among corpses Life and death was down coin tosses You i share with my monstresses All six will cut you like posses Place your skull on my antebellum mansions Eyes wide shut, smell fear, you’re anxious Your belly churning burgh!!! It’s obnoxious Down on your knees, you praying? Cut your losses It’s too late to be playing churches No law, no rights and no justice Since I’ve been alive it was just this Can’t read so I can’t show mercy To the same world that bruised our voice boxes Chorus No exit! only way out is to face it No exit! New order, new decade No exit! You can either bow or you best me No exit! No bad luck, it was destined No exit! only way out is to face it No exit! New order, new decade No exit! You can either bow or you best me No exit! No bad luck, it was destined

the CULTURE 02:11
I hope you don’t make me bite your face Coz it ain’t like I like the taste It’s more of a personality trait From the culture I was raised in Always raring to get paid I hope you don’t make me bite your face Coz it ain’t like I like the taste It’s more of a personality trait From the culture I was raised in Always raring to get paid Born on a Tuesday In the land of Cinque Baby fro sitting on my head like a bouquet Start of a new age Mama had a new fave Stromae show me how to say it papaoutai He was on a journey, trying to buy us meals Next time we would meet, he and I were different breeds Pocketfuls of wisdom I was slow to receive So I dug out my two cents and put them to a beat, to that kid, MuRli overachieved but ain’t no getting comfy Left my achievements in Budapest so I stay hungry My word play ain't no child play I'm more Chucky Ain’t no flirting with these rhymes, my style's ugly This ain't free it's a fugitive style My flow's doper than a training session with Roberto Salazar Gatlin take a shot of my raps he'd beat Bolt Competition cannot get in the way of my free throw! Try me! Buckle up and take a ride with me A leap of faith towards fruition of your inner dream No for an answer, that's a first for most of y'all Let me remind you expectations gonna let you down Coming onboard is Ramadan for the greedy soul Exposed to the colours of nature that we don't learn in school To rise to the top and get bored by the empty sky? Or stay grounded and see my future with my third eye The sight of hope bears resemblance to visions of a home you're yet to know But a home nevertheless so we go Talks of believing in what we're chasing fills your arteries with envy The first seed of frenzy To unfold But I'll be ready on my family tree With plenty of seeds To feed your need I’ll come handy I’m so ready I hope you don’t make me bite your face Coz it ain’t like I like the taste It’s more of a personality trait From the culture I was raised in Always raring to get paid I hope you don’t make me bite your face Coz it ain’t like I like the taste It’s more of a personality trait From the culture I was raised in Always raring to get paid

ILLEGIBLE 02:56
I ain’t done yet Put the pen down I lost a whole year Going round and round Trouble came and went The real stuck around Hard in the paint We multicoloured now I’ve been a little lost But had you double crossed My LEDs off But a fella never dossed Got many loros patiently observing what he does Mene, Mene, Tekel Upharsin, your time is up I ain’t done yet I’m only starting now Grab the crown and return it to Lost and Found We are Up, no balloons on the house though What a time to take possession in this rondo And run the show, and now we friends, I’m no Ross bro …. Before you fix your lips, watch the gloss ohhhh And I don’t play with Y, I stun like O If you got eyes that can read then you know it’s U Coming out the box Watch for the uppercuts They thought I’m detox And stay bottled up So I let it drop Molotov! So illegible My God be a doctor And I ain’t done here So put yer pens down Let me have your ears Good greyhound No sleeping on the tracks Trouble on the line Roger that, Engine number 9 Vibrations (uh) Vibrations Wear the bad vibes down... Abrasion Amazing I’m acing Every verse, every word Even spaces I came, I observed And I stayed Don’t feel the change in the air? AC Like their own breath They wanted me gone What’s that smell I stuck around I ain’t done yet Put the pen down I lost a whole year Going round and round Trouble came and went The real stuck around Hard in the paint We multicoloured now You pray for the resurrection of heroes When It came about you shunned them for euros My gullibility online made me desolate I wanna know what’s in the mental of people of people that hate By now all my icons started to bow Those who remain don't impress me when the truths out When they drop the instrumental, keep looking at the horizon I give you the resurrection of --- back on a mission so you know the second coming synonymous with the rapture for all who ever doubted the supremacy, haaaa I’m bragging! What the heck were you expecting Yeah my new direction is hard like a Hm hm So I ain’t done yet Leave the lights off I ain’t done yet Leave the lights off I ain’t done yet Leave the lights off Put the pen down Until the mic drops

Monkey chants in the stadium Jackie Chan in his cranium If he could he’d be schooling ‘em And let the game carry on through holograms Roaches on my timeline They don’t like me, but they want mine My irises, the colour of a stop sign Unlike my missus, I am not fine Stakes are higher than a cow on cannabis I stay on side in the clear like where the banner is Laugh out loud just to cover up the cowardice That had resulted from investing where the manna is I see you get away with things that I never will I close my eyes hoping I’m dreaming but I know it’s real Buying time to plan my get out, Jordan Peele While the daily news said he Kent, I’ll be Man of steel My arms strong from holding back on all fronts I know tongues that reach spots a sword won’t Unbeknown to hotspots I kept mum To spare you kids the wrath if you’re that dumb You can’t Hide forever Ain’t nobody safe here Unless we all are You can’t Hide forever Ain’t nobody safe here Unless we all are Took a seat by an anonymous tree listening to Nas Though the inspiration was free I paid the price In the look a passerby gave us, it wasn’t nice Age 3 we’ve been refugees like Clef and Pras Opened my mouth and stuttered 4 times like Pharrell’s beats So I just kept it to myself like these beats But you don’t stand for something life is a lottery And since I never won at it, that’s not my strategy I’m, exiting my second puberty I apologise for the false sense of purity Those who saw it rise don’t Tom Ford the foolery Worn as a guise to out screw the scrutiny You ever heard my voice in the razzmatazz? I’m gonna have to take a pass on that pat on the back. That’s not my vibe I just roll with the punches so I survive Weather the storm, trap the rain and take a dive Been underrated all my life it don’t hurt no more I spit it, you roll your eyes like you heard it before Next minute you down picking your jaw off the floor You can’t Hide forever Ain’t nobody safe here Unless we all are You can’t Hide forever Ain’t nobody safe here Unless we all are Hands in the air that’s volleyball Stand against the wall that’s a photocall A thorn in your flesh what I live for You can’t tell me nothing, that’s protocol

TAKE MY TIME 03:26
I slip, I fall I take my time Sometimes I like to socialise I sleep I dream, I free my mind I live I feel, I love I cry I slip, I fall I take my time Sometimes I like to stay inside I eat, I pray and I feed my mind I live I feel, I hate goodbyes Every time I try to get away for a minute you be giving me a ring, even when it’s engaged Frozen a smile on my face, like my name’s Joachim but just like the film it’s fake I always let you in without a visa But this is not a day for Mona Lisa I’m on my island, not Ibiza So I won’t let you flight land on my pista I’m not beyond your service But I feel a void behind the surface Fearing it would crack was I force it So this is my decision you better endorse it Been away from home too long entonces I’m missing my migos, the minute I’m off set Usually the last to ever object To a good auld sesh, maybe I’ve changed I slip, I fall I take my time Sometimes I like to socialise I sleep I dream, I free my mind I live I feel, I love I cry I slip, I fall I take my time Sometimes I like to stay inside I eat, I pray and I feed my mind I live I feel, I hate goodbyes Why you always get in my way Why you all busy tryna ruin my day Don’t you have a job, my rights you violate Breaking point's afoot, just like a pirate Why you always get in my way Why you all busy tryna ruin my day Don’t you have a job, my rights you violate Breaking point's afoot, just like a pirate (I won’t be at work today, but I will not be taking no calls I don’t wanna entertain, I don’t wanna do no drugs Appealing but I gotta abstain, it’s not worth the bad thoughts Yet I still procrastinate, getting caught up in small talk I just wanna stuff my face, I don’t wanna give no hugs Later I will meditate, get lost in the words of God I will chill in a higher place, no distraction onboard My position too delicate, I can’t afford to drop no dud) Without drums I slip, I fall I take my time Sometimes I like to socialise I sleep I dream, I free my mind I live I feel, I love I cry I slip, I fall I take my time Sometimes I like to stay inside I eat, I pray and I feed my mind I live I feel, I hate goodbyes

Wise words from a man I’m yet to know Showed me who I am and the way I need to go Can’t say that I love the way it happens that’s for sure But if you want it right, then you better learn to grow Wise words from a man I’m yet to know Showed me who I am and the way I need to go Can’t say that I love the way it happens that’s for sure But if you want it right, then you better learn to grow Screw the world and you might end up with it’s children Rest assured that I got mine and I have no interest in cheating I send my prayers up and share the burden with my brethren A jack of many trades, i master by end of season, since- I found my roots in tribe called quest love Extend it to U2, it might knock the edge off Line after line I'm infiltrating your AirPods Eager to make my point before we get to the next stop A small window to let you have a peep At this show we got going on, I’m usually too deep But my hunger is growing strong, and I’m glad your heart ain’t cheap So by time you grow fonder, you will be mind to keep They say I am a beast coz I mistreat the beat But if you had to fight to eat, of course you too would raise heat I used to lay the table where they wouldn’t let sit Now I host my balls where I allocate the seats Wise words from a man I’m yet to know Showed me who I am and the way I need to go Can’t say that I love the way it happens that’s for sure But if you want it right, then you better learn to grow Wise words from a man I’m yet to know Showed me who I am and the way I need to go Can’t say that I love the way it happens that’s for sure But if you want it right, then you better learn to grow A message to my senior self, never stop living coz old age is God’s gift Stand for what’s right and keep an eye on your motives Don’t be afraid of change and don’t you settle for passive Even though I left you my legacy be supportive Of all your dreams all of your passions and your causes As long as they fall in line with His, I’m your mouthpiece Part of the reason I insisted on being an artist Is for people like you to find compassion when it’s hardest Slow to anger, quick to listen to the students Continue to lead with love, don’t go the way of the stupid Leave the judgement to God, and His spirit execute it I know power in your tongue, so be careful how you use it I put my soul in these songs so freely dance to the music Tell herself, she’s my girl still and take her to the movies Prepare her favourite meal, and make a toast in the jacuzzi Now press play: baby can you hear me I just wanna say thank you for how much you moved me The way you introduced to me different shades and hues A catch up is over due so this next one is for you
