(Chorus):
GET OUT THE WAY
OR YOU AINT FIND YOUR WAY
MISSING THAT TIME TODAY
GET OUT THE WAY
THIS AINT NO TIME TO STAY
FREEING OUR MIND TODAY
GET OUT THE WAY
THIS IS THE DAY
(Verse 1):
Get out the way cause I’m leaving
I can’t be late to the greiving
I can’t be late to get up
But I’m running late cause my Fit Up,
Nice…
Berry on Ice
Wondering how ima get there tonight
Wondering how I’ma get there today
Stressing bout timing like why can’t you wait?
Why can’t you go?
Why don’t you know?
Why don’t you leave when you ready to go?
Why you say yes when you should’ve said no?…
You should’ve said no!
Woah
Wonder how you keep me down and defeated
I’m sleeping all day and I still feel depleted
I needed to get up and focus on Him
But I’m laying here scrolling and focused on them
These
those
Seem like I chose
Seem like I choose
Nudes over shoes
Wants over necessities
I lose
Search for a cure to disease
The clue lies
Beyond the lies
Beyond the trees
Beyond the sky
Beyond my fears
Beyond my cries
Beyond my tears
Beyond my pain
Beyond my hurt
Beyond my shame
Beyond my guilt
Beyond the blame
Beyond the dough
beyond the fame
Beyond the skills
Beyond the wealth
Beyond my life
Beyond myself… So get out the waaay
GET OUT THE WAY
OR YOU AINT FIND YOUR WAY
MISSING THAT TIME TODAY
GET OUT THE WAY
THIS AINT NO TIME TO STAY
FREEING OUR MIND TODAY
GET OUT THE WAY
THIS IS THE DAY
THAT WE RIDE
GET OUT THE WAY
OR YOU AINT FIND YOUR WAY
MISSING THAT TIME TODAY
GET OUT THE WAY
THIS AINT NO TIME TO STAY
FREEING OUR MIND TODAY
GET OUT THE WAY
GET OUT THE WAY (x5)

(Verse 1):
I can’t complain…
Salary checks
Got us flying on planes
Foots on they necks
Til they crying in pain
I be the vet
That they hired to stay
This be the recipe
Don’t think no less of me
This just the tip
You ain’t seen the rest of me (pause)
Rest in complexity
Bread ain’t no flex to me
Is these niggas really leaving a legacy?…
I CAN’T TELL
Game so sick nigga
I CAN’T SMELL
My lane so thick nigga
I can’t fail
So in best time we gon get’er done
Fade to where it’s raising we gon wallow in the Son
Never Seen a hater get a dolla til it’s done
Making sure He coming for all my niggas when it’s done
So shiiiiit,
Might as well get yo own bag
Worry bout the quality don’t worry bout the tag
(Cause it’s paid)
(CHORUS):
I be like “WHAT?”
They be like “WHO?”
I be like “HIM!”
They be like “TRUE!”
I be like “FINE”
They be like “COOL”
Then I be like “DAMN”
And they be like “CHILL GOD GOOD NIGGA”
(VERSE 2):
Tighter than it’s ever been
Challenge the drive
It’s a must that win
Can’t be the guy that’s a bust in the end
Now it’s my pride discussing my ends
Promise to God that I trust where I Am …
And I trust in yo plan
But I’m still a man
Carrying weight on my shoulders
Like will I be average or will I be grand
Feel like I can’t take a stand
Feel like I can’t be a man
Worried if I got it in me to fight off this flesh and conquer the enemy
What did I do to deserve all this grace
I act like the truth then lie in yo face
Fucking and flashing and fleeing and flipping
Ducking and dashing I’m driving and sipping
Blessed with a job and some niggas is wishing
Blessed with family shit I be tripping
Act like the man that’s gon her some different
Touch her then leave I’m scared of commitment
I be drained and I don’t go
Can’t take pain It hurt slow
Pray in vein I don’t know
If it works it don’t show
Still I shine and you glow (woah)
I gotta village that say they be proud of me
Wonder how little they know they get outta me
Show up to church I’m lying I might
But can’t even focus my mind on last night
Sex on mind like it’s all that I think
I shouldn’t be driving I just drink
I shouldn’t be thriving I fuck over blessings
I feel like I fool I ain’t learning my lessons
Ion know why I’m in here confessing
I gotta vulnerable shit I’m undressing
My pain, past,
hoping it last
hoping you listen
Wish that you’d ask
But Fuck it
The clock running down
Get a bucket
The cops coming round better tuck it
The flock gon be round if you lucky
Laughing like chucky
Head to bank and deposit a Bucky
She say I’m different now she wanna (wait)
Gotta refocus can’t head to the lake
I tired gotta take a break lol
(CHORUS):
I be like “WHAT?”
They be like “WHO?”
I be like “HIM!”
They be like “TRUE!”
I be like “FINE”
They be like “COOL”
Then I be like “DAMN”
And they be like “CHILL GOD GOOD NIGGA”

When The Time Is Right
01:36
|

Let this be a lesson to my niggas out there stressing
The enemy handing curses out
Disguising then as blessings
To my sisters
Independent, entrepreneurial, intelligent
Just know that you are heaven sent
Infinitely relevant
But for now on I’m celibate
Tryna keep my body
And purify my soul
Only Christ can keep me whole
This life can take a toll
When you chase the superficial
And I’m not tryna dismiss you
If you
Favor chains and pistols
I’m just giving you the meat of the truth
No time for grizzle
PAUSE
Did you catch that?
WAIT
Let’s take a step back
Time for examination
I’m channeling all my patience
But steady anxiously waiting
For times like this
It’s hard times for Hip-Hop
It’s been a while since a nigga heard rhymes like this
Seen grind like this
Shot my shot missed
But I’m playing defense
No plays off
Hungry as bear
Just can’t no days off
Oops I gotta steal
Make trap rappers my meal
I’m sick of hearing that shit
Yo How these niggas getting deals
and yeah I’m hating
Just know this shit is personal foreal
You masquerading generational curses as appeal
This shit is Ill when you really think about it
Chain niggas to poverty
and pay em when they rap about
Use guns and chains as props
Niggas be cap without it
I’m angry you rap about it
Cause it’s more to the truth
I spit rhymes out like flames
Set fire to the booth
My freestyles is proof
That the lion is loose
Versatility be my capability
If you feeling me
Then like this shit or share
If not? Ion care cause I...(x2)

(Chorus):
City cold and It ain’t right
Said it’s about time get ya game tight
Don’t know where to go
But they say I gotta take my time
Can’t wait no more and I feel like I’m losing my mind
Feel like I’m losing my mind (x2)
(Voice note of more saying “focus”)
(Verse 1):
Hit the streets
Get to work
But the lights off
Can’t escape til the hurst
Think It might solve this pain
Running in circles don’t know what I gained
Working to find a way out of this stage**
(Uh)
Answers in front of me
But the problems take more just one of me
Would seek help but I’m scared they’d make fun of me
Bet they wish they knew who I was gonna be
I be moving with angels on missions
Need protection for demons they dissing
GPS say I’m headed in the right direction
Took the wrong turn guess I’m learning my lesson
Still worried bout whether or not they undressing
Tryna refocus on keeping my blessings
These insecurities why I be stressing.
Went on a trip cause I gotta address em
(Hook):
City cold and It ain’t right
Said it’s about time get ya game tight
Don’t know where to go
But they say I gotta take my time
Can’t wait no more
and I feel like I’m losing my mind
Feel like I’m losing my mind
(Verse):
I can’t help but make these dreams work
This King’s hurt
Tryna heal but I gotta bleed first
Pops told me I gotta take my time
Time told me I got the right to shine
Now I’m on
And who knew it’d be so hard
Who knew I’d feel so far away
Who knew I’d feel so wrong
Guess that’s why He made me strong
I be on 10 like I’m young
They tryna be down like it’s fun
But I can’t be stuck in the dung
I talk like I already won
They be like Jay “where you from?”
I tell ‘em straight from the Son
My melanin popping
Potential (obvious)
I can't be copied
I swear
City cold and It ain’t right
Said it’s about time get ya game tight
Don’t know where to go
But they say I gotta take my time
Can’t wait no more and I feel like I’m losing my mind
Feel like I’m losing my mind (x2)
(Voice note of more saying “focus”)

(Chorus):
Never seen a road that’s moving
Never heard a song grooving too tight
Never felt a heart that’s oozing
Only know the feeling I get when the moods right
You be on guard in the AM
Even at dawn boo you slay them
Let’s be off time
Make up your mind
Decide if you gon be mine
(Verse):
Let me take a minute to explain
I ain’t never did you wrong on purpose
Shit I was just nervous
Running from the fear that this could be another worthless sensation
Traveling your heart to find a useless vibration
I’m gone
Missing yo Morning time messages
Questioning like did I make a mess again
I’ll be the first to confess this ain’t heaven sent
Flirting for the hell of it
Make that nigga jealous shit
This the wrong road
But you the right one
This ain’t morris code
Baby type some
Make me write some
Deepening my feelings
Wonder if the love we felt before was even real and…
Can’t control what the future could hold
I mean we might as well be gambling
I’m used to the lows
If you wit it
I’m wit it
I get it
You can’t be committed but admit it..
We would’ve been the flyest that did it
(Chorus):
Never seen a road that’s moving
Never heard a song grooving too tight
Never felt a heart that’s oozing
Only know the feeling I get when the moods right
You be on guard in the AM
Even at dawn boo you slay them
Let’s be off time
Make up your mind
Decide if you gon be mine
( B Heard):
You been screaming love me love me or just leave me alone
Baby I know you been waiting on me to tell you what I want
But You know me, indecisive B
Full of jealousy
Couldn’t care less me
I really need somebody that’ll give me the moon, not somebody always coming around trine tell me what to do
He got this & you got that
It’s feeling like an ultimatum when you talk like that
It feel like he see the world in my eyes or something
anytime he got it then I got it it’s nothing
But when it’s me & you
If I tell the truth
Don’t matter what you do
You know I Only got eyes for you
(Chorus):
Never seen a road that’s moving
Never heard a song grooving too tight
Never felt a heart that’s oozing
Only know the feeling I get when the moods right
You be on guard in the AM
Even at dawn boo you slay them
Let’s be off time
Make up your mind
Decide if you gon be mine

(Verse 1):
Visions in my mind of you
Loving me like old times
Reminiscing on yo old rhymes
Reminiscing on them old days
Dorm room love we okay
Wonder if you think about potential that we threw away
I threw away
I made mistakes
Wanted to chase
Foreign embrace but…
That’s the past though
Can’t hate what I asked for
I’d love to say I just want ya time
But I really wanna see that ass tho
Guess I’m on the same shit
I then grown but a nigga still ain’t shit
…Just can’t quit this time
Hoping that the lord keep me on yo mind
(Chorus):
Ian got no better way to saying
ion really trust when I be praying
Like how you love this much when I be playing
Messing over perfect love and then complaining
Think of you a daily
Run it back for me maybe
Let’s take our time we ain’t gotta do nothing crazy
Is it really empty?
Can you really feel me?
This feeling is wrong
We must (x2)
Move on
(Taymad3it):
I can’t blame you
You was lost but now you healing
A super hero but you think you just the villain
Gotta start somewhere
You got potential I can feel
Keep on pushing
I know one day you’re gonna kill it
Don’t let the start of you be the roof or the ceiling
Growing up is just the beginning of the beginning
Dont let it break your spirit
Make it apart of yo mission
To break the shell
And show the real you that stayed hidden in yo prison
(Bridge):
Young man
It’s okay that you ain’t got it yet
Young man
Just make a way and be about yo check
You stand
With the brothers standing next to you
Be a man
That makes sure he’s loving sister too
You can
Be all you’ve ever wanted to
Just stand
In the Way that He(God’s) instructed you
Cause he’ll be there
right by your side
When you journey through the night
Interlude:
Maybe my priorities wrong
Maybe I should worry bout school stead of worry bout songs
Maybe I should worry bout you instead of worrying bout wrong I did in the past
Maybe I should worry bout how to make this last
Maybe I should think about
Things I never think about
Maybe I should dream about
How to pull the eagle out? Nah
Maybe I should worry bout my blessings
Focus less on stressing
Less on beats and more on lessons
Maybe I should worry bout relationships that strained
Maybe I should worry bout my health and less o. n gains
Maybe I should worry where ima be in the fall
Truth be told maybe I shouldn’t worry at all
Maybe it’s my worry that’s keeping me from ascension
Maybe I worry too much or too little so pay attention (I’m)
Tryna worry less, pray more and be strong.
Maybe this ain’t my path,
Or Shit maybe I’m wrong
Who knows?

Outro - Long As I'm Free

This chapter’s over
I’m moving on getting closer
To things I always dreamed about
Could never dream of how…
It would unfold
Blessings are made of old
prayers that’s in yo favor
Wait for you to grow up later
I…
Wonder if my momma nem could picture the success that her son would have
I mean he was good at math
Not good as D
But he passed
You know he love him some Jazz
You know he him love Dad
A mommas boy since young
Wanna be just like his daddy
Tryna be just like his son
Tryna be just like The Son…
(The steps laid out I just ain’t begun..)
So I just figure that Nigga that
Decide what he gon
Show up when he supposed to
Make up when he have to
Grow up but don’t act new
When you lane don’t just let nobody hack
Make sure niggas know you’ll do anything you have to
Cause I’m down to grind
Down to shine
Down to fail
Down to cry
Down to hurt
Down to fly
We on the way
I’m down to ride….
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do
I can’t tell even who I’m supposed to be
But long as I’m free (x2)
