Sacrificial my passion is detrimental to everything that ain’t in it
Exasperating my image of self
How do you see me just tell me how do you see me
Distracted by something scenic
I’m grasping after an image of wealth
Living in stealth or im living in hell
How do you really love me if I'm giving a shell
its Disgusting
My cousin hit me like what’s good with the kid
He’s been watching me from a distance cause hes doing a bid
It’s stupid.
They shoot you thirty for your moves as a kid
Like we chemically never change what can we do for the kids
Im shaking
I'm Getting conscious of the moves that I’m making
Cause if I cant help him nobody’s gonna do it he’s waiting I know it
I’m feeling pressure but I know I'd never show it
do I want this music shit or do I do it for motives
Like movin the oceans refusing to cope with these losing emotions
Abusive im sulkin I’m using my bros like a plug
And thats ugly,
Prehook
I’ve given all that I know
I wanna to fall to the globe
I’m standing over my hopes
I’m undecided
I’ve given all that I know
I’m never stopping the show
I’d never fall to the jokes
I think I’m rising
hook
i’ve been climbing up so long,
i might fall, fall
i’ve been climbing up so long,
i might fall, fall
I’m cold hearted so give me warmth of you wanna chill
I’m no arctic I’ve hardened
so departed from hardship
I think the struggle is something I learned to wanna feel
This my passion decapitate it I want it killed
Im in the car spittin written songs
Tryna get involved get a bigger song
I ain’t living large but you live in bars
This a different bar all this baggage couldn’t fit in songs
gotta get it off I got a armful
Since toddlers we gone through what we gone through
It’s dawned to me I’m uninvolved and that’s irresponsible
Lemme write all my mishaps
Everything that I’d switch back
Nanas gone. you missed that
Tasha here. she skipped that
We take for granted the time that we getting handed
Disbanded missing the family we healthy and never meet each other
It takes somebody’s leaving for us to need each other
Give me flowers while breathing I hope we see each other
Prehook
I’ve given all that I know
I wanna to fall to the globe
I’m standing over my hopes
I’m undecided
I’m wishing all of you know
I’m prolly not always home
But If you call on the phone
Then I’m arriving
hook
i’ve been climbing up so long,
i might fall, fall
i’ve been climbing up so long,
i might fall, fall

these niggas worried if I got the best verse
its Less works to turn and gun em down like a western
chest hurts that’s beause I stay on the bench
i mean i really don’t play until the games gotta end
That K gotta send.
I heard you tryna shoot ya shot at fine hoes
They hit you with that K, that’s a one word reply tho
Die slow. That was just an intro like survival
Now im on a ten and going west like fivel (Uh)
Reppin long catch a palm I’ve been getting strong
Weapons gone but the reps I’m on got me getting Arms
Chefin bars gotta couple Wit me tryna get involved
Weapons drawn, got a blade long like Sephiroth
killin niggas this is fentanyl
A couple bad students in my union try to test em all
Nah you try to test em foreal
I bring the racket like it’s tennis I got technical skill
Dressing to kill women I’m keepin are all divas
Tryna get a hand for a wedding like Palm readers
Call me the don, cheadle I could foil entire plans
got that thick skin until I’m casting the iron man
Hook
I was really hopin y’all would say something
When you get the bag then they wanna say something
talkin this is just another day for us
Now these bums reallly wanna pray that we would
Stop
Stop
I don’t think we could
I don’t really wanna
Stop
Stop
I don’t think we could
I don’t really wanna
Verse (Sonnie)
i realize when i became a man i wanted everything
if you fuck with my enemies just know that youre dead to me
im about to take some time off so i could be a better me
couple years from now i doubt that they could reach my pedigree
eventually some of the rappers gonna have to mention me
a young ie legend thats something youll never be
imagine this,game 5 dame time hit a buzzard beater
watch my crowd go crazy as i wave bye Please
you know that im nice with it,
you be writing hits? i wonder who be writing it
all them Instagram careers, they gonna be forgotten
when the boys get to writing know that bodies get to dropping
Im a muthfuckin beast, watch this muthafucka eat
yeah im sitting at my throne kneel to my muthafuckin feet
i just needed confirmation she said im the coldest mamba
you can ask my side pieces ask cassandra and yolanda
im a muthfuckin problem. mama told me sonnie you gon shine
i trust my mama,
i keep a blade on me too, they call her katana
you aint really with that action never really with the drama
whoevers invested in me is getting paid back with some commas
Hook
I was really hopin y’all would say something
When you get the bag then they wanna say something
talkin this is just another day for us
Now these bums reallly wanna pray that we would
Stop
Stop
I don’t think we could
I don’t really wanna
Stop
Stop
I don’t think we could
I don’t really wanna

Pray For Me Ft Daylyt
04:06
|
|||
Verse (Kasai)
Let me pray for you say for youu what I may for you
There’s people tryna raise you or people digging a grave for you
Lately I’ve been away, surveying what little breaks can do
It’s like a fracture little ones really strengthen you
I’ve, had both. literally broken bigger ish
Splints and discs trippin then slippin I had a hemorrhage
Gifted I’m busy living to mention it with my penmanship
Miracles took a mile forgive me I pushed those inches then
I got a brother who’s struggling with his sanity
Cancerous not the sign but I sigh he’s facing calamity
Answers tangents a canopy flasks and drinks with the jack
I think nothin can stop a spiral sometimes except the crash to me
I’ll be waiting to save you after the landing g
Embrace the tragedy after I’ll be your trampoline
Bounce back with me away from it all
Standings never the same if you’ve taken a fall
Hook x2
Pray for me, pray for me, Pray for me
Pray for me, pray for me, can you pray for me?
Pray for me, pray for me, can you pray for me?
can you pray for me? can you pray for me?
Verse (Daylyt)
I wonder if Pray work when you pray later
the plato cave working day to day human data
truman show that they can take a girl out to the movies
dude be happy watching sad shit the notebook im so shook
we get older my odor smell like the trenches
piece of her came straight to they gate them children defenseless
grew up broken open the drain im hopin to free ya
from web from the dark i prepared for the star kids
earth foreign us pouring us drinks weaken us poor
the more that we swallow theres some Moores bein bottled up
i know love do not exist but i exist
i act with my knowledge must acknowledge this
before cars we were seeing a lot of whips
mama prayed for me with that bible all this energy
but i guess she ain't read timothy.
how could you teach me the book? you breaching a contract
but its faith i see, i still let her pray for me
Hook x2
Pray for me, pray for me, Pray for me
Pray for me, pray for me, can you pray for me?
Pray for me, pray for me, can you pray for me?
can you pray for me? can you pray for me?
Verse 3 (Kasai)
Guide me I need a steeple writing I need a stylo
Tryna find the cheat code, survival of all these people
Dying from a disease that we title all as my ego
shits been foul, all these shots is a free throw
Tito’s in my drink tho see me through any
peep hole
Making me more relatable open doors Ima waiter tho
Serving food for your cranium here’s a tip for my haters tho
Get off my knob I open doors causeI stay remote
I’m taking challenges powerless to the hours spent
Calluses from the talent of hanging on til it’s childish
Chalices in a palace built from bricks of my cowardice
Afraid to fail so let me know that I’m talented
Stepping stones to my wonderland let me go to where Alice is
Talismans give me balance and show me how to unravel this
Energy....... hold my horses my inner G
Paladins gotta ride til infinity

Verse
I kept driving up til I’m over all
Rollin like it’s stolen til my motor needs an over haul
if I keep goin never slowin then I’m gonna fall !
......What if I keep going up til I’m floating off ?
I could come crashing down like forest falls
And then I startin from the (bottom) .... well you know you the song
We’ve touched dirt but that’s really where life starts
so focused on the future i don't know where my life starts
......cash is time, and that time will pass
I ain’t passed my prime but this time don’t last
and If I’m passing prime does it mean that the cash comes
so focused on the future idk what I’ve passed up
that’s never stopped me from playing the quarter back
Growing stats treating every line like warren sapp
Throw it back I told you I ain’t passed my prime
I’m really at a speed that’s a fast as time i wanna fly

Moment Of Clarity
01:47

Verse
Ugh levitation created through meditation
Decided that ima rise from the fire instead of waiting
It’s no surprise that my shine was from separation
My stripes are just like a tiger survivals because I ate em
yeah
bag em right like I got em packaged Tight
I wasn’t packaged right a dragonare into a dragonite
I’m from the ashes like a phoenix I’m captured Just like a scene is
The dagger I’m tryna sink it
I cut this shit like a scene switch
Ugh
San Bernardino they streaming me out of Greenwich
I’m eating but I’m Bulimic she prayin for me to Jesus
Jeez
is this my lack of sleepin that got me dreaming stacks of green
from a little growth and some hustle it really has to be
i'm From the city where niggas strapped with a pistol
Homies were doing dirt but you really have to forgive em
Fracture my vision, I would share my actual liver
just to Give these niggas the truth I’m a natural giver
Hook
Thank god for grantin me this moment of clarity
From this moment I’m fallin
I spread my wings I flew
Complex from the birth
I gave you volume after volume of my work
This is my real life too
I built my tribe
That’s was just another way we would survive
Way beyond the way we spit a rhyme
This is God’s gift. complex with all my work
I gave you volume after volume when i worked
So you could feel My truths

All in all I try to stall you make me fall
I’m fallin hard
So hard
So hard
Try to catch me
Ima ball but not in the sense of wealth
I’m a bawl but not cause I wanna yell
Im a ball I’m wondering can you tell
(Try to catch me)
Let’s speak on anything we can speak on
Let’s speak on how I just wanna keep on
Speak on needs but never lead on
(Just try to catch me)
I had a few, nothing was really too important
They say it comes the second you finish lookin for it
Too distorted I’m trippin but I’m movin forward
Can you do this for me?
(Try to catch me)
Tryna find balance lemme seesaw
We talk. now I’m on a free fall
something to lean on but that Sleep? nah
fans know you sleepin they can dream on
hook
All in all I try to stall you make me fall
I’m fallin hard
So hard
So hard
Try to catch me
Verse (Christine Ariya)
i seen you walk this way but talk that way match what you say
but ain’t it funny how the worlds keeps turnin, round
with no concern for the cares that you had of yesterday,
so grab yo bag today’s a new lesson to learn
you say you want this, you say you need this, well try & keep me
no more excuses, come on let’s do this, don’t let the well run dry
i been thinkin bout you all night
got me wonderin if I’m on yo mind
don’t let my wave beat you in this race or it will be too late
hook
All in all I try to stall you make me fall
I’m fallin hard
So hard
So hard
Try to catch me

Pre verse
They say everybody’s blind
That the truth is what they need
I got vision without eyes
I’ll be ruler of the seas
They say if he’s got one eye
He can rule who doesn’t see
I got vision without eyes
I’ll be ruler of the seas
Me
Verse
niggas on the road right now
Pressure hitting coals right now tell them Ima get it
Lit up like a stove right now get a little smoke right now
Tell em Ima grill it
We be at the shows like wow, niggas barely show right now
Ive been gettin bigger
Don’t tell me bout your hopes right now tell me bout your goals right now listen
This a vision
I swear that it don’t stop this shit is a stove top
We cooking like Cole dropped my whole block wit it
The city don’t know dog I get it we gon pop
Whether we on thop or your concert
listen my Pencil is driven my pen got an engine
I get it it’s never an issue
This isn’t a diss and we already distant
I’m given attention cause I never get it
Hook
Verse 2 (Sonnie)
I let it bang let me get back in my range
Pull that shit out and I aim
Like he never changed hes still suck in his way
Hes still playing his games
That’s the way it gotta be
feel like the king of the sea feel like they kneeling to me
feel like I need it in all the worst ways possibles
girl you gonna see that I’m a beast
I do not entertain false prophets cause when sonnie drops he be brining that heat
99 press, 99 Zone, 99 speed bitch I’m elite
Keep playing with my brothers name big man that’s that energy you gotta keep
no debate Dv3 project of the year I’m take my leap
Into the unknown some stories went untold
so tell me who’s writing these classics that’s something we won’t know
I got a bad bitch I keep her lowkey
I got a few demons that’s gonna haunt me
You gotta cut the head and watch the body drop that’s what my O.G taught me like JESHHHHHHH
hook
pray on my down fall
but my cards been drawn
i don’t know how to move
i just fall off
watch me fall off
I’m falling off
Pre verse (Kasai)
They think that I’m really blind
Like I’m stupid using me
Like the knife ain’t in my back
I just pulled it from my tee
They think that I’m really blind
I got pool/pull because I bleed
I ain’t different and I’m fine
did you how you how you doin me
Verse
Gun cocked gun shot (boom)
I ain’t takin one stop
Always been the bigger man, short fuse unlocked
Niggas being bitches
that ain’t ever gon stop
Follow me and call me bro when I’m gone you gon talk
Yikes
Totally different and switching that image for women
Or switching because how you want em
But see me in public and Showin me love
I dont love em don’t love em don’t want em don’t love em
end of discussion so fuck em no duckin ive been where you wanted
Let’s get into something
I would never switch
Chase a niggas chick
She lying on my dick
hook
pray on my down fall
but my cards been drawn
i don’t know how to move
i just fall off
watch me fall off
I’m falling off

Free fall
****
Verse 1
You hella brave cause that’s a free fall
And when you land I hope your knees strong
My moods can be like ping pong I sing songs
I drink all my drinks gone and think god
I’m really pissed but my face it’ll seem calm
king cloth im cut from something you read bout
To show you I’m different I’ll give you specific thread counts
Think of stories I read bout how moments have panned out
While I watch from this ledge doubting my place do I stand out
Nah
Who’s really with me, who’s a part of my past
Who’s really shifting who’s prolonging myboath
I’ve never made a bridge burn
but I’ve watched em collapse
I tried to listen and ended up in a trance
I’m here but she said I’m really not
So what’s this really bout?
I think I’m in my thoughts
These discussions i listen but I don’t really talk
I think I’m really lost this life can be like a high until you really fall
I’m gone
Hook
Sober on the inside
Floating on the outside
in a different state of mind
not really the playful kind
do i know, like i know, guess i don’t
me first, so i go, then i dove
i’m sinking, let that sink in
Verse
You hella brave cause that’s a
Free fall from that peak spot
Tree tops to the stream rocks
How’d I land on my weak spot
Shoulda died but my scenes plot
Said I was meant for a mission
My living conditions could use a magician
I
Think when I’m losin I’m winning
But really I knew I was different
Ambition is like a cloud of smoke
Some people really choke
Some people really smoke
Some people sell it as Hope
And those people really jokes
I need to really toast
Let’s celebrate having people who wanna see you grow
Hook
Sober on the inside
Floating on the outside
in a different state of mind
not really the playful kind
do i know, like i know, guess i don’t
me first, so i go, then i dove
i’m sinking, let that sink in
