What up to the whole globe
Shout out to the almighty H-town
It′s midnight in the city
But the night's still young
Admiring the skyline
Blowing on that Marley
Underneath the moonshine
What a time to be alive
When I arrived
Around the same time as crack
And I still survived
Not surprised
Cause I kept that fire in my eyes
Learned not to fear death
Cause a legend never dies
Had to rise
Be the creme de la creme
Was chasing the likes of Em
I wanted a beat from Tim
Timbo
Money wasn′t right so I got a beat from him
Him being myself
Needed records on the shelf
Now I'm streaming Any Given Sunday
Willie Beaman
Left home with big plans
California dreamin
Leaning on my passion
While im mashing LA streets
Number one distraction
My attraction to LA these freaks
Had to open a ear
To hear when God speaks
Now I'm on these winning streaks
Out here trying to play for keeps
Preach
As the world keeps turning
Life goes on while the chronic keeps burning
Paper on my mind stay focused on earning
Elevate my mind, stay focused on learning
Turning over new leaves to leave the drama behind
Trying to reconcile the days I left my momma crying
Much too young and blind to see the blessings that I had in line
Gazing off in space
My mind in a daze
Wondering why life
Is such a crazy maze
As I star gaze
I see myself in the sky too
Shining bright right along with um
As I try too
Get that penthouse view
For momma and her sister
To get us closer to grandma
Damn a nigga miss her
She knew how to fix a
Meal for your soul
Now that′s food for thought
Don′t let that food get cold
Me and my niggas roll
Toe up under city lights
Giving in to all the vices
While we duck the city vice
Dark nights can leave you blind
And stuck behind
Your ultimate goal
And now you gotta wait in line
For them keys to have the game on lock
I be on a different type of time
Need my own clock
The long shot
Thats nothing short of miracle
Imperial mind state
And my grind state is serial
As the world keeps turning
Life goes on while the chronic keeps burning
Paper on my mind stay focused on earning
Elevate my mind, stay focused on learning
Turning over new leaves to leave the drama behind
Trying to reconcile the days I left my momma crying
Much too young and blind to see the blessings that I had in line
