lyrics

[jdv plus]
Everything is changing

I’ve seen the sun become the moon
I’ve seen the stars look so blue
When everything is out of tune
There’s harmony in my room
I gotta keep it in my mind
That everything will be alright
‘Cause I know what the rocks feel like

[Frank Hpeso]
I don’t play, that’s something they know
Assume the ceiling I have
I know you don’t want no smoke
They won’t catch me sleeping
And I swear that’s all that I know
I been stranded out in the cold
Heating water up on a stove
Breaking it down by the day
My boys always ride for the cause
That they’re planning to stay
Now pleasing the people
They know I ain’t taking the bait
I don’t need to think about
What they doing in the dark
I just house-hop when I’m in the ‘ville
Gone ten days, going state to state
Drinking Benadryl
For my sake and the others’ sake
I stay home
Still neglecting my own
Try to hit me up, Jaime messages
Then I pick up my phone, yeah

[Glasstempo]
Say that you’ll go this time
Won’t be the one to go flying
Won’t be the one in control
We’ve been through this before

[Curtismith]
I was there
A hundred thousand on the dashboard
Flying out to a new trip
I’ve been overusing my passport
New clips, I rap more
Take me ‘round the new city
Out in that Jaguar
This the gift that’s been given to me, Ma
This the shit that I asked for
Demons out in that black Porsche
Thinking ‘bout my old school
And how I kept dreaming over that blackboard
The rat race, those trap doors
Gon’ catch me sleeping
And I ran the floors doing retail
They all had me sweeping on cheap bail
It’s a sweet tale
Now I shop there
But I got bigger agendas intended
I’m not gonna stop there
I keep ‘em out with a vision
Ambition is kept on my top shelf
Couple stores up in Rockwell
Manifesting all my bigger dreams
To make interesting put compound
I been knocked down, but not knocked out
