“Yo roll another one, and another one, and after that shit probably another one... yup”
Verse1:
I swear life feels like a bumpy road
You hit a flat spot then spin out of control
Im about to tell a story thats probably been told
But the message is real, so let this show unfold
There was a girl, shorty had so much soul
So beautiful, only 18 years old
The whole world in front of her just like a globe
She gave it a spin like a kid and watched it go
Her destination: shit that's forgetting the past
So she packed up her bags an spent all of her cash
Moved from a small town, straight to the big city
All the bright lights what girl doesn't think there pretty
From the beginning, said she didn't need a man
Heart broken before, sure didn't need that again
Damn. naw naw man. so this girl made a plan,
Turn a penny to a buck like a castle in the sand “yeah”
Full proof, like the liquor that she used to drank
On christian holidays, now she's hitting double A's
Can't stand to see her whole day go to waste
Somehow those lips still find the bottle anyways
But hey, things were looking up
She found a job at a diner down the street, said it fit like a glove
Wasn't making much, but fuck she had enough
To take care of the power, even gave a buck to a bum “uh”
Perfect, but she got hit on all day
Ain't like what these fools said or the moves they made
Shit finally, one word took the cake
In the middle of work, she slapped this dude in his face
Fired on the spot, wasn't sure what to do
Couldn't pay the rent, so she stopped eating food
When you hit rock bottom, and that pain sinks through
Keep up the fight girl, win, don't lose
[CHORUS]
Hey yo book that flight, go head and hitch that ride
Do what you gotta do girl to get that prize
Take that chance, go and change your life
And let it be a memory so great that you can't describe

Verse 2:
Kicked to the pavement, ran outta blank checks
Hadn’t made friends yet, she wouldn't just stack debt
Her last breathe, craigslisting her mattress
Looking up above, like why did this happen?
She said fuck it, picked up her cell phone
Hit the contact list, found a dude from awhile ago
Nowhere to go, already went broke
Scared of failure so she couldn't go back home
And so, this guy let her in
With wide open doors, but on one condition
Homegirl, she had to be with him
Knowing damn well that meant she had to sleep with him
Sad for me to say, about all guys are the same
She chose her way, you could say closed her fate
And so...she moved in that same night
Just shows in life, that everybody has a price
A sad seen, the first time she almost cried
Not the type to be a slut, didn't want him inside
Told herself she'd move out in time, closed her eyes
The next morning hated life when she opened em wide
[CHORUS]
Hey yo book that flight, go head and hitch that ride
do what you gotta do girl, to get that prize
take that chance, that changes your life
and let it be a memory so great that you can't describe
1X
Verse 3:
Woke up, felt like she'd been fucking used
Damn, shorty had to do what she had to
Knew that this could never last, just needed a chance
To get back on her feet, from being flat on her ass
But as time went on..the liquid formed a bond
Best friend to a bottle that only tunes sad songs
Before long, pills started falling down
Smoother than the liquor, cant feel anything now
She sat back like wow...and faded out
Lost in a dark world and she cant get out
Opens her mouth to scream but nothing ever comes out
This woman's name is hip hop, that's who I'm talking about....
eluhvated. Spend two seconds with the “old soul” and you get one thing, real and true passion for life. One who isn't afraid
to tell you what he thinks, his reflection truly shines over soulful instrumentals. Life takes us all on unexpected twists and turns but his whole life is a roller coaster; one he seems more than content being on as he eluhvates the world with his "ashy to classy" story....more
