in the metro
Still around from last years run
Melanin unsettled
By the folks who aint got none
So tell me
Tell me
Did you only see the light
When

when we break them shackles one day
We boutsta look good like the hood that you gentrify
It's do or die
For those who look like you and I
A loosened

When we first met
My sorrow that killed me so bad
Turned into silence again
In your hands by the river
I know this game
Look up to find someone like

tune
Thinking something in this world is better than nothing to do
Comfy in my skin and shoes, man, I got nothing to prove
When I'm by myself, my cries

In my earlier days, when I was looking for love
I went down many paths;
But I always ended up right where I began
The love would never last

And as I

should have changed them years ago
But after I was stopped by that customs beagle in arrivals 
I've been laying kinda low just injecting myself out

Hearts that break and frost that bites
I began to reminisce and miss the grey

Growing pains, they hit me
Life goes by so quickly
Take my hand and walk me

really want no static
See blue lights, I don't play for The Magics
Killing my people is tragic
Day in the life when you living in blackness
I ain't trying

we save we

By candlelight my hand will write these rhymes 'til I'm burnt out
Mostly from experience, shit that I learned about
Topics and views,

I was way back in the lab
With a pen and a pad
Had to carry then bury the beat
See be very discrete
When you march down the street
With a gun

arms
Ima dig in that shit 'till the mornin'
When I touch her I'm turnin' her on
I can't lay up cuz plays always calling
Can't loose focus I'm way too

When I seem like a big deal for you
I just changed you in my phone
To Kasland, the new rapper
You've been blessed by Saint James
It's going down
You

gates
Saw the sight before my eyes
I knew then it was too late
So I shook my head and began to cry

Well we've all been conned so very long
By the Left

Time Frame

Insight

Blast Radius

of signs came
Music retail was a wise aim
In the early 20s blues defined the game the time frame
That black music was segregated and jazz climbed to fame

you here without a guide
We visit each 4,000 years when our planet passes by
But that means there's 500 more years 'til we arrive
I stayed behind

feelin’ kinda blue when my eyes fell on you
That’s how our love story began

Verse 2
We exchanged a glance when the train came in the station
And we traded

All That Jazz

All That Jazz

1987

There's a baby blonde with cool blue eyes she wants to be Monroe
For fame she longs that shining prize to be the star of a movie show.

All that jazz,

without you
The truth? Man, doubtful
But every morning I wake
Perplexed by a complex that I been tryna sedate
Like how I still fucking love you after all

I'm talking Space Jam, Kool-aid Jammers
Back when I wore grannies' shoes
Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, Handy Manny, Blues' Clues
On the TV, or like

on heals
Look at the options for real
You figure its more I figure it's real
Me and trizzy like james and west
That's 2 triple doubles when the 3s connect

Oh-oh-oh
I'm so lonesome I could cry

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome I

don't have no legs
Cause I will never see defeat
Ahh
Mama told me when I was young
That I'm gone be a star
I ignored 15 calls from seven A&R's
47 labels

blessings when I started minding me and my business
RIP to my kidneys
Long live all my brothers that's with me
With my squad like we ginyu
Believe it or not I

Sometimes I get overwhelmed
I'm in, in over my head
Put my life online for sale
Put that wish up on a star
Put that money on myself
Sometimes I'm just by
