lyrics
Sometimes I pretend that’s it’s all gravy
Even when it’s obvious everything’s all crazy
My vibes is off lately, the Ground is all shaky
Minds all spacey, the trigger is off safety
The homies see victories and think life goals
One minute I’m sweating the next I’m ice cold
Eyes rolled to the back of my head
Knowing I’m lacking the bread
To buy back everything that this life stole
Live Shows still legit, verses still fire
Blindfold in the pit, till I feel inspired
Time saved is a sine wave,
and it’s meaningless when you feel like your Mind flayed
Like Will Byers
All dried out like I’m mummified
My brothers try to visit I tell em another time
Close my eyes and the nighttime come alive
Stranger things than hawkins in the summer time
Brothers grind, just to get what they deserved
Hoping that the game never kick em to the curb
Never dreamed I’d be Living this Disturbed
Devil on my shoulder and he whispering the words
Right now...
Everything is upside down
My whole world is upside down
Right now
Penny The Great
We gotta maintain the code play ya hand and never fold
If you stick to your position guaranteed you never grow
I never follow any rules i just break as I go
You can never be a partner if your hustles way too slow
Gotta hold yourself accountable so every move is logical
Thinking of my future life is something that i gotta do
We raising up the stakes move with elegance and grace
Grow the base let them chase now we moving out of state
This vibe became a movement now the reach is getting further
I'm getting love from people in these streets i never heard of
The glass was half empty pour the pitcher now its full
Pessimistic mind state my only path is what i choose
Fronto leaves burn slow in these streets that i cruise
Never be my completion i will die before i lose
This passion is my life niggas ready for a slice
Roll the dice and pay the price
There's a full moon tonight
Right now...
Everything is upside down
My whole world is upside down
Right now
RoQy TyRaiD
Theres a correlation between lack of motivation and work fatigue
When mental breaks that you take to recuperate could equate to paternal leave
Its evident the ending my tenureship is imminent
Coerced to leave, no semblance of certainty Im meant to win
Depressing yes? my temperaments reflected in my credit checks
Occurring fees, oppressive debt
Remedy w/ contractural employee’s supplemental checks
Phoenix try to test my mettle this ain't weapon x
Patrolman known to kill
Flash their lights then take your life Winona with the steel
Put you underground like Russian soldiers running cover missions
Tyraid on the radio Fans gonna listen
I go ham on you bitches like Dustin on the hill
Skills meant progress, I would've been charted a project ago
Im as pissed off as Jim Hopper, I want all of the smoke
City’s savior this town would be hell without us
Refound my power, reach the gate at the eleventh hour
I’m back
Even when it’s obvious everything’s all crazy
My vibes is off lately, the Ground is all shaky
Minds all spacey, the trigger is off safety
The homies see victories and think life goals
One minute I’m sweating the next I’m ice cold
Eyes rolled to the back of my head
Knowing I’m lacking the bread
To buy back everything that this life stole
Live Shows still legit, verses still fire
Blindfold in the pit, till I feel inspired

and it’s meaningless when you feel like your Mind flayed
