So personal Everything is personal So personal Everything is personal My life is Moving vertical Spiritually I been Hurting though Caught myself A prophecy Heavy heart But I’m certain though These niggas Claim they know me Til they know me Took my talents From my homeys Cause they thought They had a hold Of me Pushing me Pussy route Nigga please With the ovaries Over these Muthafuckas Tryna keep me Out my lane While still Exploring me Living for others While dying for me An oxy While sipping liquor And smoking weed Vices that caught A hold of me Therapeutic Yet stupid When children ask me The issues My sons should See me in prayer mode Not vice mode Survival mode Fuck it Got a license To teach License to preach Nope Yet the preacher Inside of me Gotta let him go Give you stories And parables Bout my past life And how my past Affects my present Had to gift you twice Far as the future goes Mask off Sensational Everything is personal Doubt me now It’s a handful I threw the list away The scroll was heavy On my brain And put the focus On the chosen few Who knew my life Was making way Belief within myself Belief within my faith Belief within my energy That’s caught Between My talents and A hard place So personal Everything is personal So personal Everything is personal So personal Everything is personal So personal Everything is personal

In light of my struggles The darkness is pure Not in danger Cause my light Shines For many more And through my troubles I sing melodies From heaven With the gates Of hell Below my soles While the lord Protects my soul In my own space As I Write my wrongs Wrongdoings I was doing wrong Right along The ride along Me and the lord Perfect this metronome Every cadence Every sentence With this sing a long All along I was following The wrong song Self esteem Was losing steam Gotta press on cause There goes my confidence There goes my common sense There goes my appetite Destruction is prominent So dominant Wait up Get ya faith up Trek Read these verses Filled with curses But the message was there And here we are All aboard The boat of stress I confess As the flow rocks Steady Til I Manifest And lose the stress That I never left Cause life is what You make it I’m just tryna Make it Niggas fake it Til they make it Only for the love Of those That really hate it Searching for the love And those Who hate you Is the wave On muddy waters Then you falter Asking life Is this the offer? No It’s only what You asked for Well done You achieved it Temporary wishes Long term Feel defeated Soul tied To the next prize Begging and pleading Cause You want the money And the fame Of ya niggas You want the likes On the status Of ya pictures You want Gratification Of being wanted 15 seconds of fame And this nigga gon Flaunt it But I just want The same love I give away 50/50 On a normal day I love hard And I care harder I put my heart In many things Knowing it goes farther When you do it Without wanting much And such and such Appreciate it Without giving much Fucked up But I live with it Introverted Yet confident in my giving That no soul that’s living Is giving Like me No bullshitting It was 5-29 When the silence Made me shiver And I learned on that day Speak up more Your feelings aren’t unsure They just impact more When you speak words And feel sure Spilling soliloquy’s Synonymous With vulnerability Add on the pressure That skills in versatility Is only felt By those Close to me I know the flow Is one of the best Rapping my ass off Misplace my jeans Religiously It’s in my genes The pool was shallow Until I seen me As an entity In the bigger scheme Amongst my team A gift and a curse I don’t rehearse Rehash my moments At the Hearst In my dreams On being fresh to def With all the jams I give my worth I was told by somebody That my way with words Is dangerous That my talk Is slick Well I guess it is But understand Even my vocabulary With hours are scary Crafting my insecurities At times can vary I just wanna be The best me Without being questioned But the way My testimony’s set up Prepare for questions Your honor Roll as a scholar Here’s the weed Will you do The honors?

Verse 1 Life is such I give so much It’s not enough So please what’s up Don’t call me bluff I’ve shown my cards enough Enough Life is such I give so much It’s not enough So please what’s up Don’t call me bluff I’ve shown my cards enough Enough I’m the type To show the love To give the love Without no check On what I love I give so much The love is so Abundant but Where’s the love I’m the type To show the love To give the love Without no check On what I love I give so much The love is so Abundant but Where’s the love Verse 2 I’m the one Who’s understanding Overstands My understanding Know my standing Yet misunderstood Despite my understanding About you I’m the one Who’s understanding Overstand My understanding Know my standing Yet misunderstood Despite my understanding About you Look I gave my all Still give my all Do my best Just to stay involved Say you want it all But the words Ain’t matched at all Ain’t matched at all Verse 3 My love is real Abuse it Might as well Lose it Too cool To even misuse it So exclusive I give my all With no return My usage Is one with scars And bruises Why do they do this? Every song Every soliloquy Showing that I put my heart In anyone That’s one with me The funny thing Is every time You sunting me Is opportunities To tighten up My vulnerability Perfect my personality In the midst Of every storm I learned a lesson So the stressing Is a blessing As I find With all these blessings Stop suppressing It’s depressing And the knowledge They give as much As they do To me The moments That you don’t wanna speak The moments I won’t say a peep Peace

Sign of the times It’s perfect timing For me I been on time Despite no watch For me I stay in tune On one accord Wit me God and myself Sorry the grammar’s faulty Took a couple pages From my last story No editing Proofread it Give God his glory Sinners prayer I been born again Despite living in sin Seeing my sins again Only difference that rear view Is stunning Stone Cold As the young bull Broken skulls In the squared rope My tear ducks Dried up I’m raisin My sons To be the one Not two Or me too Look They are my legacy Keep it going on Break any curses I’m still holding on Work in progress On my worse day My best days I’m getting better By the day Everything’s personal Tryna clear these grudges Fighting for freedom While it’s on a budget My two cents Bought me common sense But not tunnel vision Or the price Of being forgiven Or forgiving those Who blurred my vision But I keep going Light zoning My likes on it The weeds potent Feel my demise Searching for imperfection Cause I’m perfect In your eyes No So here we are Retrospective My confessions On par Upbringings as a church boy Temptations on my mind I’m tempted to lose My mind This grief on a platter My depression got The hunger For more Adding this chatter Of pity And full despair And yes I took it there Yet through it all Persistence Through commitment We move forward Dawg that’s a given Let’s go
