lyrics

Soft brush if you tryna keep it wavy
Never let beef get in the way of getting gravy
Marinade before it's time to set that plate
Tryna be too good is the enemy of being great
That's what my big bro spit to me
Crawl before you ball y'know like Paul said to Timothy
Recall second Timothy when Paul was finna go
It was all spit to Timothy cuz that was lil bro
So yo keep that same energy We fighting the same battles
w principality enemies...Same valley of shadows
Same Judas Ascariots....u know the narrative
They shooting pistols like Pete maravic
All just Tryna be the livest one
But none of us dope enough to carried that cross not even Iverson
We grew up on them cornrows braids and waves
So don't let them headlines feed your brainwaves
Never tried to make a dollar I was always makin change
Around these Rorschach’s where all the faces change
This whole place is strange
But the amazing thing...
I still wake up everyday tryna change the whole game
And blaze the whole thang w fire and gas cans
Calling me a grouch you the one admiring trash cans
Told my young lions to use your tools
only one of em school here's other roads you can choose
So true
No matter what you gotta learn how to hold your tool
And apply the right pressure, twist the right direction
And master self reflection clean yo mirrors
The most evil spirits is the ones we inherit
Know the role of the stick and the carrot
Thin line between a pirate and a parrot
Stealing is a sin Lying is a demerit
So think about the pirate eyepatch and why he wear it
And how the things we wear can reflect our scars
Cuz we ain't never too far from our last war
We might even slur our arrrrs
And grow beards some just to try to look fearsome
Soft brush if you tryna keep it wavy
Never let beef get in the way of getting gravy
Marinade before it's time to set that plate
Tryna be too good is the enemy of being great
That's what my big bro spit to me
Crawl before you ball y'know like Paul said to Timothy
Recall second Timothy when Paul was finna go
It was all spit to Timothy cuz that was lil bro
So yo keep that same energy We fighting the same battles
w principality enemies...Same valley of shadows
Same Judas Ascariot's....u know the narrative
They shooting pistols like Pete Maravich
All just Tryna be the livest one
But none of us dope enough to carried that cross not even Iverson
