Picture This 03:54
See picture this... I always loved the crispness of music taking it in like an addiction making me smile, like a kid on christmas drive my mom wild sub shaking the kitchen me flowing with a rhythm needed some fixin put years in this shit now I'm kinda the shiznit wanna say I'm rich bitch but more interested in helping out kids cus my spirits get lifted with lessons from the best so success is a given I run shop like a mom pop business revolving every sentence to a rhyme scheme I ain't have to learn that tho it came as a blessing from the light above you don't know what that means? you ain't dug enough dirt no your shirts too clean I was in the mud pits when my soul let free since then I've beaming as bright as can be, ya that's me And I'm toasting to the sky cus I'm alive living right from the second I open my eyes Rise high as a kite cus I stay in flight first class til we die and there ain't no price YEAH I'm toasting to the sky cus I'm alive living right from the second I open my eyes Rise high as a kite cus I stay in flight first class til we die.... Got me thinking bout Jay before he made the pay or flava flav before clock chains an fine babes tv shows, ladies screaming your name me I'm still chillin wit my homies getting blazed ain't just talking dreams tho no we make plays on my peyton manning game til they lock me away sounding like OJ someone bring the champagne plus a pound of snoop dogg its time to celebrate the pure fact we all woke up today most people don't show praise still ask why I pray I'm amazed god took me out pain replaced a deep dark space with a smile to make change left a chick named mary jane I'll never toss away just keep hitting that sweet stuff all day never take a name in vein and I never spread hate you could say I feel blessed to say that with a straight face And I'm toasting to the sky cus I'm alive living right from the second I open my eyes Rise high as a kite cus I stay in flight first class til we die and there ain't no price YEAH I'm toasting to the sky cus I'm alive living right from the second I open my eyes Rise high as a kite cus I stay in flight first class til we die.... How did this happen? All I did was take my passions go for em like a pheine look for smack when he's relapsing I kicked in those habits focused on this rap shit now my actions bout to coincide launch me on the atlas be the last one standing if I have to on this planet god damn it tryna make it better need to understand that this worlds a battlefield Are you on my team? Are you cool with green? You ain't gotta smoke yo just let me be bout to spread these wings Following my dream til I can't breathe and I'm set free Think I'd feel like a pussy if I packed up to leave so Imma dig in that pussy til I'm filled to my knees “haha” here to takeover like Nino at the Carter heart of my grandfather never seen no one work harder Imma rap martyr put your profits in my pockets best chance hide in yo closet, karma making me honest it's a habit of prophets an gods being exalted I pray they eluhvate me to the highest here walking how mandela raised an army I'mma start a freedom party if they take me out like pac I'll let my rhymes keep speaking for me

Oh my god it's too good to believe Waking up everyday and doing my thing sleighing these beats I'm a warrior king rare breed set to destroy thieves, get the queen “yaya” my passport's all ready to go across seas spreading positive light like mahatma gandhi all because I took a dream then created a picture perfect reality like van gogh painted I got million dollar rhymes most can't afford so I put it out for free cus I've been there before and what more? I could take a quarter off the floor keep doubling up til I've got me a 4-door I'm a hustler baby what I'm put here for just trying to show you all that the world is yours start with the mind state then keep pushing forward til you ain't settling for nothin less than a grammy award....or at least a world tour yeah! I always knew this would happen now that I'm here its too good to imagine standin slappin hands with rappers used to be fans Always looking up to them when shit hit the fan never forget all the times I just had to runaway letting my brain play off them soundwaves in the sand by the lake with an old school tape rocking kurt cobain man wish he stayed feelin high like a plane when I first heard Blu like damn that's one soulful dude why I looked up to him like the king of the school hand-taught me the rules so I ain't play like a fool now praying one day I do the same for you cus I used to look just like the blue man crew now I'm smiling like snoop or biggie up in the booth tryna make me a juice---ey track to get huge...and get you loose How we do it? We drop the record, push the ads try to calculate the math what'll take us from the flats to the life we knew we'd have ain't no easy work gotta hustle your ass you think that jigga man made it just sitting there relaxed haha, that made you laugh but face the facts better chance bein car jacked than making a chart smash and you can't gopro if you don't master your craft I'm on that run lap game til I'm a Bolt on the track See I used to tryta smash jam any snatch now I'm worried about jams to impress my fans from the scratch ain't know I wanted it that bad looking back like damn...you really do that? Yeah it was all in the plan of the man some can't understand hope I lend you a hand cus I could quit you punks go back to drugs But fuck that, I love rap, and I got lives to touch....plus That's right that's right we elevated (eluhvated) for life

5am waking up to get it done ya greeting the sun before my teeth brushed next off the list that peach fuzz you gonna hate me get deez nutz take my numb chucks do like ten pumps acting Arnold Palmer putting teas up Do a chuck liddel to a wax dunk with a backflip cus I can son Going charlie sheen on dat loose leaf Til I got my dream and a lotta cream broulie with a little bit of dank always gonna blaze any track I'm on so behave if you in my way I am on a train to success already left but I heard your city's next you can get wrecked or hang with the blessed.. didn't say best cus they dead, respects Grinding hard til I get my prize no end in sight until paradise Flying high gotta get mine Ya best believe I'll always get mine Let the dice fly to the bank line Going all in with my stack of dimes don't waste time gotta get mine Ya best believe I'll always get mine They say you only got one chance to make it Well what if that chance was already wasted you actually saying all this focus and praying can't change some rules in civilization That's sad to me you actually fit inside the box they cast you out to be like here you can have all these drinks just make sure you don't follow your dreams be a burger king before you ever lead a bunch of human beings in a fight for peace rather kill geeks in them cyber streets than change the world before you out this beez make a tiny piece of what your actually contributing to that factory that's not for me, I'm on my own grind going full time til I get mine

Ah, don't wanna be mad at the past and I wouldn't be if he would just give you back thinking I might be close to another relapse but everything in my veins keeps screaming fuck that still lonely like my hearts in prison and if love was a bottle of gin you'd say I'm swimming missing you digging in the linens of my bed wanna see your face through my eyes not my head now I can't even rest without getting upset that your not cuddled up next to my chest and yes I miss the sex, frankly it was the best we had a good thing, 2 birds in a nest then you had to leap, I held in the stress see I knew you had to leave, but when you actually left I was wrecked, like my heart was out of breath burning up from the fire of regret as I sipped death [ I just miss our kickbacks sitting on the clouds at night sunsetting on my, on my blue eyes I'm just praying baby, one day we'll find a way to get back, two piece of minds ] Damn, like I'm doing this all for you big part of the dream, I want it to happen to see I got my team, but I need my boo just something that we all go through...true is this a big test to see what I desire such a thin line feel like I'm walking on wires Breathe deep, get my answers from the higher Know he see's me tip toeing not stepping in the fire still poking those coals tryna get inspired like a paper and a lighter but no weed inside her Am I on the holy ghost or is the bible a liar I know I'm close to God cus I ain't gotta go find him Here take my rhyming, all over the map It's clear I gotta run the world to get her back swear I'd never let go no fuck it not a chance like me ever accepting the devil for a dance [ I just miss our kickbacks sitting on the clouds at night sunsetting on my, on my blue eyes I'm just praying baby, one day we'll find a way to get back, two piece of minds] like a sunset, love when it happens not when it ends used to be friends, then another view came through the lens we fell close, spirtually had a little niche capturing our energy like fireflys and little kids Happy to say we never burned eachother's bridge only kept it positive in the city we lived straight LA girl, not UCLA girls still got some hood in her it's that LA world we did it proper, blunts like big poppa rooftop bottle poppin with our eyes like rastas riding that choppa ocean side cus we gots ta showing me gemstones now I'm speaking the gospel looking up above at the man responsible smiling big as I can knowing anythings possible With faith, fate'll put us in the right place …...cus she is my soul mate

Bout to flip tables rewriting the manuscript Heart of Makaveli but I ain't a blood or a crip Changing up your politics, how the fuck you bitches live stuck inside a system where failure is what they want in kids staying in that jail cell minimum wage don't pay bail you could push a hay bail but they rather see drug sales living in that matrix, not me I'm taking red pills every single morning like your zanies and your advils Way too out the box for my life to be in stand still Might fuck pandoras box just so I can get a damn thrill Keep turning that hand wheel rapping for a canned meal Always looking up at God cus man I know how pain feels Used to pop pain pills like nothing is forbidden If he put it here on Earth how could you say that I'm sinning Why I changed up my livin, driven to make a difference Actions speaking for themselves but most don't ever listen like teachers past the point of chasing kids into class Some people given up their views, kinda sad if you don't understand these raps don't bother to ask I wrote this on some shit way doper than hash Might paint a perfect picture like I'm Basquiat or Van Gogh Stuck inside reality while your filling up with benzo's Always on sleep mode, me I'm hitting fast forward Moving through this life quicker than I got the time for Wouldn't say I'm hardcore, but fuck it this all war So many angels and demons, who you gonna fight for? Pulling out my sword slicing horns off you whores We all got a halo, most behind close doors Me I think that's fake, what you really scared to show yours Rocking mine proudly especially on a world tour Yelling killuminati cus they want my head torn but they can't lay a finger I'm walking with the true lord Got the heart of nelson mandela to set you free and the spirit of Jesus Christ living in me I will never give up, this is more than a dream You can't stop a revolution if the people all agree I will fight this system every day til I'm winning Don't care the opposition, I will die for the children I will march with my people, I will kill all the evil I will ride for it, die for it, til we're all equal I ain't white, I ain't black, I ain't nothing in between I'm a spirtual human being who was blessed to believe That we can all pass this peace, resurrect a regime Screaming thug life baby til the fucking death of me This my destiny, pain and love that's the recipe Got me close to God now I don't need hennessy still smoke a bit of weed cus lately it's like the 70's Somebody call the doctah I think I found you a remedy
