Love Note 03:22
[Verse 1] Loose screws make the dream work Had to brace the fall just to bounce back Heavy is the head that bear the headband Plotting on a ring and a comeback I wonder if they care if I disappear and live out the stigma, “you can’t make it here,” and Time Squares’ lights bright, and there's no snow on the west coast, but I guess anywhere is better than home The CO love contagious Diving off Park Street and festival stages Who gon catch me in The Land when my light been stuck in cages? I guess i’ll move and leave it to chance ‘cause I can’t take if I drop the Money Trees and I never get elevated I’m born to sing and fly like nightingales Spent nights in hell just to write these tales of my pain to sell, yeah I just wish they cared it's like [Hook] Icon status unnoticed in the city And it's time for a change or you'll lose your mind Lose your mind Icon status unnoticed in the city And it's time for a change or you'll lose your mind Lose your mind [Verse 2] Yeah, racing against the sky My ex-mama is racist I’m ashamed to say its why I’m working overtime to overstate how I grind Ok, maybe not but makes the story better Soulja had ringtones I’m tryna make these songs to ring til these poems chart to leave some residual income My kids gon leach some and feast til these summits collapse, but these forms of wealth gon be strong Mama told me: do until you never have to, put some bread away, and throw it in a capsule Dad ran for Mayor and it showed nothing in this world in hopeless, get a statue that's true Woodmere on my chest Number and the city on my back LeBron James if the Mac never crash Running from my demons while I’m tryna run a lap Marathon is mood Gotta move so we that shit [Hook] Icon status unnoticed in the city And it's time for a change or you'll lose your mind Lose your mind Icon status unnoticed in the city And it's time for a change or you'll lose your mind Lose your mind

But I know the goal is to control the globe These shoulders bare the thickest mink and puffy winter coats I shed these layers hope we break the mold Pressure make sure my shoulder never cold Absent from dinners Distractions like actions like scrolling all the minutes You don’t know where my head at, but these apps hold attention, but you happy with the shows and all the love that I’ve been getting We ain’t gotta sit in My love seat got two cozy spots that we can fit in You watch yo shows I write my raps I know you listen to my complaints with lack of space and time I waste You hold my waist and hope I stay [Hook] I don't need no extra sauce on my wings I got enough on my plate Ain’t got enough time to waste I don't need no extra sauce on my wings I got enough on my plate So when I escape just know that it's me (yeah, bring it home) [Verse 2] Honey barbecue Honey painted cars will do Kava tea relax my mind Take these worries off of you Mama called, tell her Imma call her back Put my shit on silent mode its quiet til we on the map, atlas, and we all in caps All the cash, take it back to Woodmere and I’ll funnel that into some local businesses I want it bad Lemonade stand Aich Grassroots to main stage Kids who run the village now learn and do the same thing But I’m a slaved to missed occasions Say that imma show up, but I can’t be twenty places to have my hands in everything for something I can hasten The peace around the state and all the other worlds adjacent Results over complaining I can’t be complacent the kids will mimic the greatness and we all are witness to all the acts in rotation All the acts in rotation I gotta bring this ship home please don’t stop me from moving bases cause [Hook] I don't need no extra sauce on my wings I got enough on my plate Ain’t got enough time to waste I don't need no extra sauce on my wings I got enough on my plate So when I escape just know that it's me [Keyboard solo] [Outro]

At 22, thought my life would be figured out, at least on now Boy, was I wrong That life gotta pivot though My world unpredictable I change wait for this shit to blow I over think like Like I'm not in a mystic mode What a moment, did I miss it though Flight to the west coast Little whiskey over light ice, its been a while so I sip slow Red eye over brisk skies, I can't sleep over long flights I close my eyes Think back to the mom cuts and girls riffing on the school bus Where yo waves at I needed time to create one This whole run been a maze uh Rough patch but amazing I come alive when May come Stage hop for the Ks huh It'll be an M soon I take that to graves I may trip life Grayson I pray to God through these grey skies My next move is a great one One day I'll have it all figured out We'll talk about that when the day comes When the day comes When the day comes One day I'll have it all figured out We'll talk about that when the day comes When the day comes When the day comes One day I'll have it all figured out We'll talk about that when the day comes At 25, thought I'd have a Tesla or a Lexus Something crazy or super so impressive when I'm talking bout my checks to flex On the other classmates or the next man, but my vision changed Now I'm only focused on my exit out this fucking game Steady focused on the catalog If you're here better saddle up In due time the world gonna feel these words Tour dates gonna feel like a travelog And I own the song Ten percent off the royalties for the kids I can pass along Gotta keep the fam more than cozy, shoulder dressed in the Patagonia So they straight when I'm dead and gone uh yeah And I'm somewhere over Kansas, living like I can't miss Dub for the city like Candice Gotta paint the Sky with these words on the canvas I knew I wanted this life since campus Thought I'd have it all by now Shoot it better hurry up real soon But, I'm so in love with the process Every day a step I can't lose Hope the whiskey don't dry on me I need it all for the time being Numb me over softly Thinking bout how much all these sessions cost me Gotta get it back Recouped investments Gotta settle that Feeling like Raven All these visions imma save through these grey skies My next move is a great one One day I'll have it all figured out We'll talk about that when the day comes When the day comes When the day comes One day I'll have it all figured out We'll talk about that when the day comes When the day comes When the day comes One day I'll have it all figured out We'll talk about that when the day comes

Siren Time 02:58
Every Wednesday its the sirens going I water self to keep the flowers growing Give it to you Pursuit of happiness is how we move I look for goodness in some rotten roots My mama raised me up to live my truth Yeah Got a new outlook on friendships Was absent in the physical Never feeling distant I'm usually the one with the good times and smiles, but when I was down my crew was my prescription So here's a bouquet of the finest iris, all shades of blue The perfect vase for my alliances cause family matters Feel the love inside no need to ever look outside of this I'm hella blessed and I'm proud of this Looking for constance on Wednesday Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Looking for constance on Wednesday Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Every Wednesday its the sirens going Feeling free full of peace Keep the flowers growing Keep the flowers growing Tell all my homies they all stars Self doubt is real I've been a victim and through my trials inside a lyric Someone'll feel it My story on wax will hit they spirit I penned Rope Break at my lowest Spent the summer trying to climb the totem Now my friends hear it ring in Poser A moment I hear people quoting lines from my worst days out It's power in the tongue my voice is golden Now they days unpredictable I'm treating siren time like is spiritual The only thing thats constant Tryna make it digital A pep in my step and my mindset After love everything additional Looking for constance on Wednesday Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Looking for constance on Wednesday Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens Don't you hear the sirens I can I'm worthy You worthy Oooooooooooh
