I found the Spalding as a shorty
My Topanga when this Boy Met World like I was Corey
The way it moved me that's the story
Waking up every morning with my shorts already on me
I loved the game and the game couldn’t ignore me
You could see son’s jumper was there, already forming
Gooseneck the net swish sound was made for me
It was something in the motion it rained and it started pouring
Cause the ball was always constant
A bounce in the monotony
I took a couple lumps in the paint but there was no stopping me
And my creative expression
Life is real but on the court I learned the best lessons
Just because you’re missing now never stop shooting
Even if you winning now play like you not losing
If you’re open you miss every shot that you’re not shooting
Between the lines there’s no quitting
That’s what you not doing
You live to learn from the losses
But you can never live with the losses
It’s the only way you win in the process
Is you live with the process
Get better and you progress.
20/20 with context
Countdowns hit the big shot
Last second back to the wall get the big stop
My weapons are my converse mid tops
All black
Star white stripe
And I make the shit hot
I always wanted to be kobe
If you know me
You would know bean is my idol
It’s more than the titles
It’s focus, ever growing in confidence
So when i found the rhyme, I felt the bounce in the consonants
It’s like the wait to watch the ball drop
Seconds frozen in time
The peak’s where it all stops
Until it falls
Drops into the cylinder.
I follow in the moment of time keepin eyes on my
Love...

Just take it day by day I try
To elevate my mind, So I face the sky..
As I Embrace my light I Shine..
They’ll Never hold me down, I am god infinite..
I feel so stressed, when I feel Introspective..
Still feel effects of loneliness, felt so rejected..
Soul Depression, Temperatures it’s cold as heck in..
Alot of folks aint seen the tears that serve these closed sessions..
Some nights I wondered outloud, how to hold together..
Spark fires from the ground, & insulate for colder weather..
Used to rock with a shorty, believed we’d grow together..
But the lesson I receieved is that there’s no forever..
Now I know better.. that I really don’t get to choose..
It just is what it is when i be feelin the blues..
I really do seem like that stone the builder refused..
Been feeling Stone cold and I dont be feeling my mood
But I
Just take it day by day I try
To elevate my mind, So I face the sky..
As I Embrace my light I Shine..
They’ll Never hold me down, I am god infinite..
White momma Black Pops, I Guess I’m Black Maybe?
Curly Hair, Wide Nose Like A black Baby..
Born in 86 thats year of the crack babies..
Nigga aint been listening straight to the facts lately..
That made me, look inside what they see in us..
Put your, nose to the grindstone, make somebody believe in us..
Jansport said Get On, then pull ya people up..
Put em on, Stand Back, Keep On Repeatin Em..
Remain Teaching Em, Find an Avenue For Reaching Up..
Peace To All The Gods Let Me Speak for them..
They saying Fall in line, I’m saying fall in love..
All Because Many Fell, from lack thereof..

This ain’t no proposition
Nah they got to listen
I got a mission
Paint with word until they’ve got the picture
When everything is peace there is no opposition
No competition for he who holds the prophet in em
The soul is what we’re often missing
In it’s indigo’s third eye chakra has got to glisten
And I need not permission
It’s for the lost and distant
Illuminessence
We Diamonds but yo I rock it different
The culture is the movement and they can’t stop It
Tell em cultivate the love we ain’t share cropping
Get out my atmosphere if your air toxic
Watch who drops quick when the plots thick
We taking off the gloves in the square boxing
In this breakthrough refuse to use a locksmith
Higher level conscience
On some god shit..we got this
And in the end it's only roses..
Pushing from the dirt over soldiers
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust..
We go from From guns to throwing roses
So I just try to smell the rose..
While I can hold it..
From the outside
It’s shining through the looking glass
Seems possible logically how i put the math
To be enlightened by the odyssey i took the path
Money talks this one here is the cash in hand
Imagination sparks laced in the dark matters
Illumination in the space in the art patterns
Recreating train of thoughts from the heart chatter
I cant ever let my dreams break apart
Shatter
Gotta believe this is no facade
To explode like stars like oh my god
Oh Allah
Oh my jah
On my Ra
Sunshine beaming
That’s on my scars
So I saw
However long it took to find
Took the time
Searching for the higher hook to climb
I am
In tune with mine with the new divine
View in mind
Been To The bottom seen the newest rise
And in the end it's only roses..
Pushing from the dirt over soldiers
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust..
We go from From guns to throwing roses
So I just try to smell the rose..
While I can hold it..
Roses.

My love, preaching seeking higher heights..
Movin through dark, like fireflies ignite the night..
City Skyline where i find my sight..Inside is light..
Put on my Cap com and hit the streets like final fight..
Step Outside the light embrace the dark,
I train my thoughts like Moses..To break the waves apart..
Being real aint for the faint of heart..
The only time I feel alive is when i’m making art, creating sparks..
So the dark serves as my canvas for the stars to glisten..
Constellations at my fingertips its hard to miss it..
Ask for the God to listen, What comes around goes around
We stardust in soul and system Call it wisdom..
The Way We paint the pictures to the Scenes
Sometimes it would seem what we’ve seen is a dream
With Bright lights and eyes on the silver screen..
So I scheme, But I’m still tryna figure out what it means..
I dont see another way to go..
Been so down there only up..
But When i can’t find nowhere to go..
I just know inside my soul’s enough..
Sunshine Beaming with the Top Down..
Picture me rolling, we on our way to the top now..
Elevate to a level where I can Block clouds..
Rock crowds, across the world and money stockpile.. Zaza
So my times on nose to the grindstone..
Working my post, the high lows, Get high smoke
with eyes low on the drive home,
eyes on the rearview..But looking for the 5-0..
Might head back west like Feivel, but what do I know..
Besides I can achieve - whatever I put my mind on..
So I climb on, Tryna live free, and die strong..
I wanna be at peace and see my time long..

Stop
Tryna be
Someone else
Don’t lose yourself
Tryna find love
I’m tryna find my way back home
Searching for a path
Back to myself and what I know
Navigating in this haze in a mirrored maze..
In a daze feeling lost on my clearest days..
All things come to an end and I fear the day
We veer away
But while we’re here today
I’m tryna dress you up in this Vera Wang
I still see you in my dreams and you’re clear as day
When you appear to say you’re here to stay
I open up my eyes and realize that you’re still away
I guess that’s what it’s got to be though
My vision go Caleco I
Take it back to the beginning with the Game Boy
I’m back shootin free throws
Peace yo
I hope you always keep a piece of me close
Stop
Tryna be
Someone else
Don’t lose yourself
Tryna find love
I’m tryna find my way back home
Searching for a path
Back to myself and what I know
Politicking on this lost time I lost my mind
Often cried
Honestly
Feeling lost inside..
Dreams I chased left me staring at a lonely face
I still wake up feel your kiss some mornings to this day
In my dreams is the only place I see you now
If I told the world my pain they won’t believe the sound
Deep down I know I need you round
But now I make sure every path I take is scenic now
So I can take it as presented
And try to see the God in myself if I am the image
If I could go back in the days at the beginning
I’d say
Lost child you’ll find your way in the ending
Stop
Tryna be
Someone else
Don’t lose yourself
Tryna find love
I’m tryna find my way back home
Searching for a path
Back to myself and what I know

She asked me what's love?
You know what love is
What's love got to do with it
You the one I wanna do it with
Candy Girl
My New Edition
We aint gotta move too quick
The past is history let put together futures with
The two of us
Protagonists in feature flick
Improv grooves
So lets not even read a script
I want you
To trust in your weaknesses
Pretty red Corvette
Rev ya engines let me show you what you in for next
Miss Hershey Kisses
Out the Milky Way and Snickers
By far you a star in the night the kind you picture
If it’s far away from the city lights and the moon is dark
Like eyes closed, the sky so wide yo true to thought
Your Oil of Olay silk skin smooth and soft
I love the way you make it hot
Now let me cool it off
I couldn’t tell you why love hurts
Or why we choose to go in head over feet first
I guess I thirst for the honey dip i need in the worst
Puff the blunt
She stash the weed in her shirt
Taste the flavor of the lip gloss she leave in her purse
Such a gift that i really i don’t believe in a curse
Aint trippin off whats hidden up beneath in the skirt
A real brother
Smooth lover
You a tease and a flirt
Why don’t we see that it work
Peach and cream you know i need the dessert
You and me can grow
Treat it like a seed in the dirt
Keep it moving
Progressin’
We don’t need to reverse..
Before her i use to think love was reason to hurt
Now i don’t wanna see the doctor lemme be with the nurse
She never seemed to rehearse
Freestyling
Meaning free in the verse
In the bedroom in my extra L tee shirt
The scream ain’t an alert It just mean that it hurt
I wanna rock with you
Damn you gotta know I wanna rock with you
I wanna rock with you
I love your groove
I love your vibe I wanna rock with you...

I’m searching for
What's underneath
That beautiful skin
Love
I’d love it if you let me into your life
I wanna spend time
And navigate the speed limits of your curves
Love
I’m cool if you wanna take your time
Couldn’t let you pass me by
Caught your vibe
Cant get you off of my mind
Love
No matter where you are I wanna make you mine
I know you feel the gravity..
Magnetized
Clarity
I wanna love you carefully
There for you, be there for me
Be your therapy
Yeah
I just wanna feel your vibe
We just tryna get a vibe
Can I can I get a vibe?
I just wanna feel your love
I just wanna feel your vibe
We just tryna get a vibe
Can I can I get a vibe
I just wanna feel your
I just wanna feel your love love..
Vibe!
We can just vibe
If you wanted to
If you wanna feel the light
We can just vibe
If you wanted to
I survived
Dancing in a burning room
Just to get to you
So
If it’s love
Tell me if it is true
What was wrong is right now
Girl I want you right now
Be part of my life now
Share your energy with me and vibe
I just wanna feel your vibe
We just tryna get a vibe
Can I Can I Get A vibe?
I Just wanna feel your love
