Gumbo

Gumbo (French: Gombo) is a stew popular in the U.S. state of Louisiana, and is the official state cuisine. Gumbo consists primarily of a strongly-flavored stock, meat or shellfish, a thickener, and what Louisianians call the "Holy Trinity" of vegetables, namely celery, bell peppers, and onions. Gumbo is often categorized by the type of thickener used, whether okra or filé powder (dried and ground sassafras leaves). The dish derived its name from Louisiana French, which may have derived the name from a source such as the Choctaw word for filé (kombo). Gumbo can be made with or without okra or filé powder. The preferred method in the historical New Orleans variation is with a French dark roux. The flavor of the dish has its origins in many cultures. Creole gumb… more »

Yeah
I am

It all started as a dream, a love for the art
They all talk about it but I'm speaking from my heart
Feel like I'm Noah cause I'm bout to build an ark
Got to be ready nobody waiting for the clock
But after the flood gotta deal with the mud
Gotta pick up the pieces I'm needing a hug
Cause I'm soaked in the blood that I shed
Under the tree cause I've been hiding my head, might be going to bed
Off to sleep, the climb is steep, my knees are weak, I'm tryna keep
Up cause I'm close and I see the peak
I'll be sowing for the now till its time to reap
I've been going on for miles better rest my feet
My pen next to me, we had a conversation
Killed all these beats don't need confirmation
Did a good job with no application
Now I needed patience
Tryna figure out a path
Ain't about the numbers but I never hated math
Hoping that my conscious deals with my past
Told my Mama that I'll be coming right back
And if I don't, I hope you won't 
Lose the hope while I be in the smoke
Just pray for me if you ever hear me choke
On purpose, hoping that you pull the rope

Yeah I spend these nights searching for the light,
In the path I chose, yeah I chose this life,
And I come alive right behind the mic,
Yet I ask myself everytime I write...
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right...
Am I doing it right,
Doing it right,
Doing it right...
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right...
Am I doing it right,
Doing it right,
Doing it right...

I be concentrated on the plan
But there were doubts if I really was the man
All these years I been excited bout the journey till I started now I wonder if this nigga really can
Guess its do or die cause I got to fly
And if I go down, I go down with a fight
For all of the moments I wasn't controlling 
Promise, I got to take it out on the mic
So I gotta try, I gotta move
Younger me can't take a step in my shoes
Its not where I've been, its 'bout where I'm going
My soul ain't the only thing I got to lose
I don't have to prove it, I'm going all in
Pick up cause this is my calling
I'll be rising and I'm never falling
In this game even after we balling
I gotta prove
Speaking and thinking they really believing
They really be reaping the benefits of my rhythm
Had a feeling that I'm going astray
But no fear, cause I'm really good at finding my way
I'm proud of the day
That I chose to rap
And if its thumbs up, man I ain't opposing that
And as we close the chapter right before the after
Praise God knowing I was born a master

Yeah I spend these nights searching for the light,
In the path I chose, yeah I chose this life,
And I come alive right behind the mic,
Yet I ask myself everytime I write...
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right...
Am I doing it right,
Doing it right,
Doing it right...
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right,
Am I doing it right...
Am I doing it right,
Doing it right,
Doing it right...

Yeah I spend these nights searching for the light,
In the path I chose, yeah I chose this life
