I stay in my lane and that's never gonna change I be spilling my pain just to get through the day I don't care what they say, I'm gonna go my own way And ride my own wave till the day I'm in the grave I'm here to take the dub But if I take an L, I don't trip about it much And if they talk about it, I don't care what they say I'ma go my own way till the day I'm in the grave That's me finding solace in these drum breaks Numbing pain, getting dumb faded bumping Mudvayne Some say I go nuts, others think I'm a nutcase Homie I'm ambitious you can see it in my young face But some days I wake up and feel like a ghost Thinking where did my friends go, hearing nothing but an echo Grab my headphones, keep my head low and vibe at my own tempo I've been wicked with the pencil since the get go And if I impress folks, I'm glad I could do that If you're tryna diss the boy, I recommend that you move back Ain't no slack, you know we steady packing the heat Stacking the cheese, wreaking all this fucking havoc with ease I got a radical steeze and I might just smack an emcee On every track I'm going mad, guess I'm a natural beast You see for me, killing the beat is just a casual thing I know my path ain't chasing after some irrational dream Tackling demons every night, I would say I do it nicely Don't be looking for me, I be soaring tryna find peace That or I'm recording tryna organize my psyche To set my wild mind free, I formulate these rhyme schemes And merk shit in the session, this is more than just a pipe dream Nineteen feeling blessed and prepared for whatever life brings On the rise with a pocket full of dreams I ain't stopping for a thing till my wallet's full of green, yeah
2.	Ten Toes Down (feat. Phoenjx) 02:46	lyrics	buy track
So here is my analysis My brain's fucking rattled but I'm faded feeling fabulous Unraveling my thoughts around the clock, I stay passionate This life is something else, at least the tunes help me fathom it I've had it with the small talk, been tryna find serenity Mentally haven't been at ease since seventeen I'm twenty going strong with a pocket full of hella dreams Following my destiny, concocting up a legacy Yo, rawness is the recipe See when I'm down, I fetch a beat Loop it and go stupid, try to let it out and let it be Better things are coming, I'm just humming to the melodies Strumming on a set of strings and buzzing off the lettuce Thinking big, I'm one to aim high I promise you I'm not the same guy I was a year ago But that's growth, what can I say I can't be fazed by the shit that they be talking through the grapevine I got bigger fish to fry, homie I don't waste time I don't waste my time on broken promises, promises I've been on the low, yeah staying in my zone Tryna find my way home, home Staying ten toes down Down, down, down Down, down, down Ten toes down Yeah, there's certain goals I ain't hit yet I'm perplexed bout how all my emotions ain't fixed and How I think I'm growing, but oh man I've been an omen To the ones I love, now I'm loathing Pondering if I'ma see the gates that are golden Frozen, stuck in my tracks, tryna find my way back in motion To be the man that was chosen to be the greatest This shouldn't be a debate My mind has been corroded, break away from them traits Honing in on the commotion, finding peace in the chaos This is just a notion that the hard work finna pay off I don't waste my time on broken promises, promises I've been on the low, yeah staying in my zone Tryna find my way home, home Staying ten toes down Down, down, down Down, down, down Ten toes down, yeah
3.	Nighthawk 02:43	lyrics	buy track
As I arise from the abyss And get my mind out of the mist, I see the night is just beginning Grab the lighter, take a rip Then grab the mic, get down to business I'ma finish what I start, and put my heart into the writtens I've been scarred but I'm a fighter, going wild with the clique We on fire in the pit, when not acquiring the riches Bringing life to all my visions and it's quite the sight to witness Any critic tryna bite it, send em riding to the clinic It's a given that I'm gifted but this world made me a cynic With the lies that people spread corrupting heads of those who listen I've had kindness be mistaken for weakness and it ain't easy But the nail is in the coffin, on my solo dolo balling Like the beastly beanie rocking, reefer sparking fiend I've grown to be I tried to hold my peace but when it's silent I just overthink So I'll be making noise, remaining hyper with the poetry Annihilating clones and making waves, come and roll with me Nocturnal life is but a dream I hop hurdles as I'm walking through the breeze A small circle is the only kind for me Talking to my thought journal tryna find the time to breathe I'm the nighthawk, laying low under radar Waiting for the sun to set and leave the place dark Cause when the moon's out, that is when my day starts Snakes oughta stray far, hitting hard, I stay sharp Like razor edges, up on this great ascension I don't know what you think I'm chasing but it ain't perfection Every day I'm grinding, trying to evade the trenches Reminiscing rarely, life is good when you embrace the present Not here to sway perceptions, I'm here to make impressions And demonstrate aggression as a way of taming tension Take a second to stay connected and up to date Cause I ain't pumping brakes, i might just fuck around and run this game Puffing dank, I'm up in space Oblivious to what you say I've noticed people love to hate Whenever there's buzz of something great But I push through the thunder, rain, and lightning over this rough terrain Unrestrained and limitless, you best believe I'm trusting fate Coming straight from down below up to the stage To top of the food chain, to the slot in the hall of fame Call me crazed for dreaming bigger than the next guy But it don't matter cause I'm giving it my best try, yeah Nocturnal life is but a dream I hop hurdles as I'm walking through the breeze A small circle is the only kind for me Talking to my thought journal tryna find the time to breathe I'm the nighthawk, laying low under radar Waiting for the sun to set and leave the place dark Cause when the moon's out, that is when my day starts Snakes oughta stray far, hitting hard, I stay sharp Hitting hard I stay sharp, damn
4.	Lost and Found 02:06	lyrics	buy track
In between lost and found is where I be at Mentally, on the hunt for solid ground so I can relax And recollect my thoughts, spark the J and pen a rhyme or two Dismissing all the outings that I never got invited to There's quite a few but at this point in time, I ain't tripping You live and learn while bridges burn Whether you like to admit it or not The clock is steady ticking I can't talk I'm on a mission To go hard and make a killing With the cards that I was given Ambition is priceless It's the fire within the rain That will drive you to better days And guide you when feeling drained I'm writing as an escape But if I inspire, that's great Chase a dream, don't look back Pave your path and you'll be straight No debate, I just copped an eighth So I might float away and go to space Music is the Novocain for my growing pains Lightens up the load of weight that's on my shoulder-blades Motivating me to keep on roaming through this lonely place Steady taking my time, this ain't a race On the way to my prime Feeling great, feeling blue Feeling safe but confused When you're lost but you're found You don't gain, you don't lose You're just here, but you're not And your peers are already off Getting jobs and relocating So there ain't no time to talk Like there once was It's just a part of growing up Call it tough luck, call it one of many conundrums That one must accept on the road to success Keep it going, cross your fingers and just hope for the best I got some dope in my right hand, microphone in the left Just trying to flow as much as possible to cope with the stress But nevertheless I'm going to ascend You put in the work, you see the effects Ain't here to impress, I'm here to cement my name As one of the illest to bless the game The way that I'm taking the pen to page Is amazing for my mental state I ain't antisocial just a guy who likes to get away From everyday commotion to focus on making gold In a zone where I can't be bothered Evolving and breaking molds Had to take control of my fate but I'd say that I'm doing well Just telling it like it is, why stop if it truly helps
5.	Just Another Day 02:06	lyrics	buy track
Just another day of tryna find myself There ain't really no telling where my mind might dwell But I stay optimistic as I shuffle through the fog Young and on an expedition, I ain't gonna take a pause Yeah it's just another day on this uphill battle Of breaking from the shackles and building up a castle While learning there ain't nothing too big for me to tackle Won't babble when I know my words could maybe be impactful On just another day of feeling forsaken I'm making peace with things that often leave my core shaken In more ways than I could explain, I won't break down When I could break through and make a name that never fades out It's just another day evading all the gray clouds Ain't a soul around as I be venting all this pain out Rolling dank, I'll be in space if you need me Riding these beats like waves in the deep sea See it's just another day of growth On the road to greatness, it's the only way to go Talking forward, I'd rather move slow than move backward As long as I'm progressing, quickness ain't a true factor It's just another day, another chance To advance and make the most of all this time on my hands I'll be damned if I let it go to waste Got a plan to be the greatest and I'll take it to the grave Been wishing I didn't feel as distant Like it makes any difference The world's gonna keep on spinning Round and round just like my thoughts They go nonstop, wish that I could turn them off That'll never be the case, so I'll put them in a song Just trying my best to stay strong And not worry bout anything at all
6.	Solitary Boi 02:32	lyrics	buy track
Been a solitary boy Hear me calling from the void With the hope there's someone out there Who's acknowledging the noise Staying sharp and it's a choice I don't want to disappoint I just want to see what all I can accomplish with my voice So I'll toss a couple coins into the well for good measure And keep weathering the storm, ignoring stress and putting effort Towards a better me, cleverly pen a scheme as a remedy For all depression brings and the given imbalance chemically Got memories repeating in my mind And these demons steady testing me, they keep me up at night Got me wishing that serenity was easier to find But I'm guessing joy is something that's just fleeting with the time So I'll sit and count my blessings under saturated skies And make the most of every day as I be navigating life Everybody's turning up while I would rather stay inside Away from all the extra racket just encapsulating vibes Of any kind, sever ties with the negatives and proceed If you ain't noticed, I'm doing this shit for me But if my words reach somebody who might have needed them Then that's proof that music's as beautiful as can be On my feet and I'ma keep on moving The bruises will fade and one day I'll feel true bliss Till then I'll be in the lab recording new hits In my own world, no complaints when the shoe fits Been proving myself to be more than a reject Solitary boy, lone wolf, I don't need friends Don't need to pretend like I'm at peace yet Just taking deep breaths, watching the seasons change Watching the rainfall Locked in my bedroom and safe from the chaos Been chasing dreams and you know that I can't stop Things get extreme but I push through and stay strong Taking no days off, trying hard to shake all The weight on my shoulders, know I won't remain lost Too many friends turned their back, what can I say I'm just a solitary boy, not by choice but by fate
