This is the ballad of the black gold
They call it Texas tea
But it's bigger than a cowboy with a lasso
It's deeper than a black hole
Create

rappin
Family hear your music and they say that shit slappin 

This is the ballad of a soundcloud rapper
A trap born bastard that thinks hes got music

of colour
When the sun began to smile
And the sparrows sang their ballads
As we searched amongst the trees
Now we've all gotten so much older
And life feels

stuck
And if this is my youth, maybe I want to grow up

But beauty there is pain and a ballad unsung
Never noticed danger until I got stung
Now my throat

The ballad of the deranged
The fragility all seems so desperate 
So strange
Youth is fleeing
A drug
An Ecstasy

care now
Look at the cost of living yet employment rates so low
The youths dem hungry every man gone a town gone hustle
Oh it's a struggle but there got

to a funeral
Now am I out of touch, if I say it's unusual
This dude will sing a love ballad to his homeboys, before a young lady
Now ain't that crazy
If you

while I’m singin a ballad of all of this anger
Anger and evil mixin a potion in the minds of the youth, man
The truth speaks, man
The devil wants us

actin like we the best
I guess I'm DJ Khaled
You gotta put in work fuck your talent 

I Learned it 
Back when I was on a dell making ballads 
Coney Island

a ballad captioning balance
Compact compassion for rations to halberd handling gallants
And talents dancing on ashes the catch is action in madness
I'd

the deuce and cry 
Your skin is bruised and plied 
Abuse from Zeus on high
The youth seduce your mind 
There's no more choosing sides 

The beat is sticking

the raven's talons
Shake the balance of the planet up, can't waste the talent
Amazing ballads in a Asian Palace
One chalice turned to gallons, now you all

ballads, the songs do grow bold
I perceive myself better than what I've been told
Show me the way upon streets full of stars
Show all us beautiful things

a ballad for the salad
But best believe it's still love for the game
Came from nothing never seen a plane or a train
But now we doing shows man I swear it

light fingers

Secret sound
Secret sound

This is sound of the cold hearted truth
This is sound of the disaffected youth
The sound of a mother trying

reign went on. 
You know it... eyes show it, that all your strenght and youth are gone...

	Great Emperor you hear them call 
	For a new king, but you

I'm really dope
Satan got the youth lil uz little boat
With all that on your neck, how you gonna stay afloat

Angels and demons

Devil

I said take a look what God did

This sound like something that came from Khalid
Same message but it's in a whole different ballad
Paint the same

their pendulum swings it's often been biased
They've re-tuned their hypocrisy to sound like ballads
Made harmonies from the sound of people getting

To vlépeis?
To vlépo
See the Python
Come out the earth with its eyes on
The Legend of Apollo
Pollutin' truth, soothsayers and youth
And so, ever do I

the crib
But thats usual for me, thats just how I live
I keep the palace like a temple ain't no room for pigs
Present these ballads from my mental this been

chili wa pa booth,
Ndiya ndainshilinga dala, ame njame proactive youth.
Nkute kuinsa apply, fikute kushupa wa,
Chainako kuikala pa booth kupambana kuikala

This is the ballad of a country 
Declaration of the soul 
Divine the magic of the blood and brine 
cnd it'll take you where you go 
cs we cross
