The Commencement (feat. Kyra Sweeney)

Better late than never Twenty somethin years in the making but we got this thing together I can’t even lie, man I feel the pressure A lotta shit’s changed since we’ve spoken, but all of these verses are still as real as ever You know what I mean Starting to share less and less of this ambition, even with my niggas Blind, so they trying to put me all up in the frame, they can’t see the bigger picture Done playing victim to these inhibitions, I do not play with this music shit This is for all of my bedroom booth rappers Who really pursuing these ludicrous visions of doing this bigger than life They call us young clichés, but we just hungry and crazy I wonder where this thing will take me I gotta make sure you hear me, better yet, make sure you feelin me I know you fake niggas fearing me I got the opposition tongue tied like anemone Prophecies all coming true, fuck contingencies Just making up these rules as I go Just analyzing the moves of the OGs I’ve been told, my niggas we finna blow I just pray that they don’t choke when it’s pro season Underground king front runner Knew I was a one of one, even back when we was bumping number one stunter Man honestly, all of this shit has just begun Man, if karma is a bitch, know some niggas who better run from her Tell me, is this where it starts When these words have your time, I have your mind, but the world has your heart You bare your soul for this mission but when we’re face to face you seem distant Maybe I’m just crazy but lately, I feel like they know you better Just remember when chasing your first love, never forget bout them day ones Stay numb to the hate, everyone who feels a way’s gonna say something No matter where this thing takes you, never forget where you came from Its feeling like all the stars in the sky are just finally aligning and it’s time for takeoff You can leave gravity back on the ground, don’t worry I’ll hold you down This is our chance to make history Now who don’t want that for infinity Life is stressful when your viewed as lesser, so I feel the pressure of the urgency And since they’re trying to close all the doors on us we gon break everyone in like its burglary Mercy mercy Granny clergy So she say these earthly struggles are irrelevant But turn on television, there’s no evidence, deficit, that hell is present So I can’t help but hope Heaven’s just a mile away for us Uh We just gotta stay focused and never show our hands to these cobras Watch out for the camouflage Even niggas that you call your fam, will vandalize your book before it’s written If it’s really on me to change our story I gotta make sure I’m reppin the one Elohim to whom all the glory’s given Yeah Fuck celebrity, it’s about legacy Probably the reason I speak so aggressively, hope it’s time left for me Yeah Just wish you could see what I see when I dream of the come up Whatever go down with this music shit, I got my set like a drummer Fuck all this deep contemplation Right now I need something to compliment all of this energy Uh You should come slide through the spot like its slippery, witness this thing at its infancy Comet level or meteoric, when this shit land, like a drop in the river Grind hard like Xavier’s brother When I hit momentum, ain’t no stopping me nigga We going out to night fuck a reason I know that we far from on, but right now it feels like our season Can’t believe we made it through the fire, just don’t wake me up if I’m dreaming Don’t kill the vibe If these are wax wings, just pray I land gently I know so many people who just want their place in the stars like Orion It’s like an addiction Go on take it to the head, the first it’s a rush so they say The junkies are royals I truly hope that the high doesn’t fade with time on the stage Cuz beautiful minds can’t help but be displayed It’s like a rose grown from concrete, not even nature can cage it Don’t be afraid, it’s now or never When it’s your moment, embrace it Everything’s possible, break every obstacle Just keep your head to the sky Faith and work is unstoppable Some who dare to be crazy may be but only your soul knows better
