RESOLVE 02:17
[verse 1] Alright Alright Alright Alright, I admit that I am not alright I'd rather be a nobody than a sound alike at least I know that I'm the nobody that I'm soundin' like a free mind with a $3000 mic no wonder why my vocals soundin' hella tight and you know my flow so outer space no wonder why I float on this beat like a satellite yall really think yall knocked me out ha ha yall didn't even knock me down, I grew up fighting kids that were bigger than me you really think I'm out here just talkin' wild I aint really all that good at acting that's why I don't be lyin' on my rap shit no scars on my face is from scrappin' but the ones on my knuckles are facts kid, ha ha ha [hook] I aint hangin' with no broke ass niggas that's enough I aint playin' no more wack ass rappers that's enough I aint takin' no more bullshit from you that's enough I aint got no more excuses for you that's [verse 2] ah yeah you can rhyme jack but you still strugglin' why's that? cause I should've been studying contracts instead of sittin' in the back of Lijah's Saturn catchin' contact I know my hometown friends aint gon' like that they gon' say I'm talkin' shit man why's that accountability I know that yall don't like that accountability I know that yall don't like that like that I'm just tryna say that I've been sidetracked now that I'm back onto my path I can't slide back into my past, compromise that, aint no my bads when I might crack then I'm right back where I was when my life had hellafied cracks and I realized that I had to climb back had to find racks between that and makin' my wife climax I really aint got time for nothin' and I like that uh [hook]

ACCEPTANCE 02:15
[verse 1] People keep suggesting I just be myself but they never ask me how I see myself what they really mean is be the me they see me as that's like cuttin' the real me in half people swear they know your whole story based on distant memories and old stories if that's the way I live inside your head then you aint got no home for me [hook] yessir I make sure everythings original yessir I make sure I stay individual yessir you probably wouldn't get it though (ah) only thing I trust is my decisions bro [verse 2] I've been down and out and counted out folks I counted on they turned around and pulled a round about call it how I see it and I spell it how I sound it out CPTSD use CBD oil to drown it out aint there more than just what meets the eye? you think that's any different for you or I? so you can love me or can hate me I can't change to leave you satisfied [hook]

[hook] bounce it bounce it like it's nothin' new give it all you got and push it through tell me tell me what you tryna do I'm just tryna take your fantasies and make em true (repeats 2x) [verse 1] bounce it bounce soon we hit the spot drop it like cold is what it's not they gon' play this in the parking lot cause them 808's just hit the spot I'm tryna slide my coin inside yo slot pull on to my lever til you hit the jackpot tell them nosey neighbors they can watch I aint tryina quiet down I'm tryina make them call the cops [hook] [verse 2] true... like I'm honest Abe an orgasm a day keeps the doc away baby we aint got no time to play tell me what you tryna do not what you gotta say you gotta work them muscles in your legs like I got the ball and you tryna block the play the way you move it makes it hard to walk away cause you got me harder than a beat by Dr. Dre [hook]

[hook] please don't call me your homie smilin' in my face with all that naaaa na na na na I don't think that you know me I might say what's up but I'm nt (repeats 2x) [verse 1] grew up in the 90's but we didn't have no cable though never watched mtv, never watched hbo we would watch nickelodeon but only at our grandma's house unless you mean construction I aint never pulled no hamma's out way that I be dressin' i'm just tryna raise the standard now way that I be dressin' make em wanna pull they camera's out I am the older brother so I never wore no hand me downs unless you mean from Allen Stinson I cried the first time I ever got detention I slipped a teacher's disk and got a Saturday suspension that was 2 different moments I don't carry on tradition, I keep it pushin cause discovery's my biggest mission that's why I've been inconsistent [hook] [verse 2] I don't use people's name for clout I try to build my reputation off of word of mouth I haven't always been the most composed when I've gone out that's the reason I'm still in the same place I am now see that's the thing about self reflection my Mom said the road to hell is paved with good intentions my Dad told me that I had to make my own decisions I had to learn I only get what I hold in my vision so if you turn your back when I need intervention just know I notice all within my solar system I just won't mention it cause they gon go and say I'm bitchin they'll say I'm bitter and I hold resentment, oh well [hook]

I'LL KIMMY 03:29
[hook] you can be anything you want to, you can have everything you want too, say it say it say it watch it come true, say it say it say it watch it come true, (repeats 2x) [verse 1] you can be anything you want to, you're the greatest, and nobody can stop you, as long as you always try to, your mind can see more than your eyes do so they can never blind you, not even if they tried to, only you can define you, eternity rewards those who take the time to [hook] [verse 2] you can have everything you want too, even when it don't appear true, never worry bout what they do, your heart can hear more than your ears do, and when you let it steer you, you know what you fear really fears you, no weapon formed can get near you, when you give the world the real you, [hook] [guitar and bass solo] [hook] [hook]

[verse 1] I'm in the bathroom just tryina take a piss, it's lunchtime there's nothing special bout it, then this kid who's always fuckin with me comes and tries to push my head in the toilet but I push back up out it, I tried to walk away but he had back up out it, his other friend pushed me back in, he swung he missed, I swung I hit, he hit his knee and all I remember is swingin, til I blacked up out it, I get aggressive I got friends, who laugh about it I guess they think it's just an act about it, but all that means to me is in a conflict I couldn't trust them to have my back about it, I look back on my life I should be happy bout it, suburban kid, two parent household, but there's more to it then that so called perfect mask about it, even if you never cared to ask about it, [hook] if I only had one chance to tell you, exactly how I feel and you only heard this song one time, at least you know I kept it real, yeah-yeah even when it... hurt (repeats twice) [verse 2] and all I hear is that's not true and all I hear is that's not you it's like a flip on that old saying, it isn't what you've been through it's what you can prove but that's the thing about small towns, that's where the biggest secrets live, cause when you know that everybody talks who can you talk to? you'll never find what you seek in it, my crown heavy my armor it got a chink in it, I smile heavy sometimes I'm cheek to cheek'n it I'm already a legend, to some people in my city but that can't be what my greatest achievement is I just stay focused on what the reason is, to develop a vision to keep believin' in, and keep pushin' forward til I'm achievin it, then they'll understand me, but I won't need it then [hook] if I only had one chance to tell you exactly what I feel.......
