My whole life has been a dream
Am trying to find where i belong
I got a feeling am alone
Got hopes of being post Malone
I don’t know where this thing will go
But to everybody doubting me man am shitting on you
From the moment i was born i was taught to be me
I’ll admit it ain’t easy perseverance is key
My skin is filled with melanin sun is shining on me
Shinning bright like morning star all the blessings on me
Wanted me a gynaecologist the grades were low
Now i rather play with hooks ain’t no clits no more
Teacher made me feel abnormal
Made me feel the dumbest student in the category
Every subject was an L man fuck normal
feel the weight of the curriculum don’t drop that shit
Go
Thru it
I felt the weight of depression i almost hung my gut
Don’t be a D Kanani man your life done changed
You done made it out of shit-holes your dreams re-arranged
Now represent immigrants
All the shit you be hearing all the pressure to fit it
All the violence they air that shit affects us all
Its like they give you freedom but they trying to fuck up your life.
Claim the gangs in the city are black
Now the kid in the city could it really be him
Everywhere on the train eyes are on him
Am staring at the skyline Melbourne ready for me
I could’ve left as a mule Akonya told me play by the rules
Suicidal thoughts
Put the energy on the LP got addicted like cocaine
My sister says i smell success like a K-9
Kill ma sins lock them up good job Kanani
Like an expectant appreciate congratulations from those that done swallow show the proof of the cream
Yeah am independent but i thank the lord for this cream
Thank the lord for the cream
Wherever you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Fly away
Wherever you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Fly away
Wherever you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Fly away
Wherever you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Fly away
Chase your dream
Wherever you wanna go
Where you wanna go
Fly away

Stuck
03:39
|

Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
Rapping and rapping and making my way
Vanilla vanilla cream on the top
Damn my surrounding is freezing better get popping thats my mind set.
Everything goals i see it as gold
I think am in my 20s
I got dreams dreams
But don’t know how to approach ‘em
I got
Fear fear fear am scared of failure
Am scared of letting go
Am scared of getting older
Am scared of everything that comes with responsibility
Am scared of competition tend to get more anxiety
Hopping and hopping to make it to top
Everything moving at speeds of sounds
I Never waste no time i told myself i got the talent
Nobody can tell me nothing I roll the dice and let the odds place
yeah i play like cold play
Only Jahova can stop me blessed me back when i was young
Singing and rapping in church i watched the congregation cheer
King in the booth and am feeling like this is what mama prepared me for
Get progressive ignore what’s stuck and let it go
Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
Every time a purchase at the store
I get those mini heartbeats
Every time my card is swiped
I pray it won’t be declined
Apart of me will never learn
Am spending every penny i make to feed the pride
I be dealing with ma shadows my finance is a disease
It ruins ma relationships thats why they all decease
My skin is black
Am scared of po po
My creative ego won’t be silent
I don’t know who i can trust
Everything could fall apart
Family crowded by rats
Think i need ‘phetamine to feel alright
Just an addiction but I’ll be alright
Hold down the circle that’s loyal so far
Hope in the future that been on my mind
Morph into something that’s loyal to me
Get of demons clinging on me
Go back to Africa just for the voodoo
Push on the button just for the vroom
Feel like Apollo am on ran-devour
How do you land when you stack in a past
How do you learn when you stack in a wav
How do you think when you stuck in the mind
Who do you blame when its all of your fault
Living your life like a puppet
You gotta be kidding
Don’t wait to be told what to do
I feel my mind criticising ma demons
Thats disreputable body lazy
I see change inevitable getting comfortable
eating vegetables getting comfortable
Let me rap
Soon as we make some money we spend it on bling and bitches thats how shit go
It gotta be more than hoes
It gotta be more than weed
It gotta be more than ice
It gotta be more than wheels
It gotta be more than greed
It gotta be more of love
It gotta be more than luck
It gotta be more of hustle
It gotta be more than bars
It gotta be more connection
Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
aah

Stereotypes
03:27
|

Stuck in a stereotype feeling inferiorized
How could i feel loved when am always paranoid
Every girl that has loved me has loved me for stereotypes
Am lost in a place petty it’s basic its called paranoia
Am scared oh
Holding down a girl am scared of f**king up
I always mess it up am scared of being in love
I never expect to be loved this shit here turned me to monster
Am a killer a love killer with a couple of Tequila and henny then we get so wasted in fenty
Drinking with hoes no mercy
Ama douchebag-a-king i just cut to the chase
My shit is woke I’ll prolly go loco
No logos no H&M, Gucci or Prada
I speak to generations foreign and local two billion rappers they all want the cake
Respect the hustle that’s family affair
If this love we got outweighs the pain
Tell me do we stay afloat
If this time we waste negates progress
Tell me do we stay afloat
Cause we here today
But we gone tomorrow
If this is how we sway
Then i hate this weather
Am weak with her trust i done got me convicted
When she talking I can’t comprehend
She like boy you be crazy i know you be cheating
I can’t share your dick with a hoe
She can’t let a lie slide she knows how my eyes blink
I target the weak ones the “Desperate for love” types
The “Easy to lose” ones am going to hell man
I can’t wife a model man i don’t want divorce man
She’s f**ked me about a hundred times
Am addicted to pulling out
She ready to grow but am still a kid
Love is a beautiful trilogy
Babe don’t waste all of your energy on me
No more defence man i need to grow
All her friends baby daddies are Negros
Crawling into oblivion
Most of my friends chameleons
Work hard enough make a million
Grown but a kid on commitments
I be faking the smiles whoa
Splitting the bills whoa
Skipping the meals whoa
Saving for studio
Fighting to get on the radio
Dating expensive whoa
Time is the money and i got none
Got a lot to invest in i came here with nothing am shifting to the fast lane
How ‘bout we quit playing
How ‘bout we spit flames
How ‘bout we quit blames
Hammer these nails make ‘em fit right
Yeah
If this love we got outweighs the pain
Tell me do we stay afloat
If this time we waste negates progress
Tell me do we stay afloat
Cause we here today
But we gone tomorrow
If this is how we sway
Then i hate this weather

Took a pill oh my god am addicted
Talked to God and he said that
The stars will eventually align
Who could’ve known man look what I became
Writing these stories will make me go crazy
Am talking rejection the industry fucked
No regrets when the minds on the dream

Bumps on the rail make the train shake

Gone through many papers i jot even on the airplane hungry for the paper
My mind strong and my arm strong heading to the moon and it’s feeling like a dream ‘cause the flight long
Grown thrown all my demons and the joy since i flew the paper planes as a kid
Damn my life plain
Mama told me if you wanna be a rapper got to create a name

If you don’t fall you don’t get stronga
Got to hold on little longer

Got to hold on little longer
It’ll take me a while but I’ll build me a lane
Take sacrifice am ready for that
Face bigger challenge but not leave me lame
Hope when i die you remember my name
All of this shit will be gone in a blink
Only the memories’ all that is left
I been on pressure to better myself
Started to focus on things that I trust
If it don’t matter am not involved
My family broke I got to get gold
Rapping and rapping expecting a boo
I can not quit am dreaming a bull
All of this shit Is getting divorced
All insecurities
All of the past
All of the fake friends
Yeah
Its hard to survive am at war with the wolves ah
I been offended am done with these bros ah
Expecting no favours expecting no leverage ah
i been on my own I started the grind
Am learning along
Yeah
If you don’t fall you don’t get stronga
Got to hold on little longer
If you don’t fall you don’t get stronga
Got to hold on little longer
If you don’t fall you don’t get
Stronga Stronga
Gotta hold on little
Longer Longer
I done came out the den then i smiled
I done fuck up my relationships am grown
I don’t hang with the fakes I confess
I done been in the dirt but am clean
Even if I don’t make it man am living in my dream
I’ll admit it
I done made it
I done made it
I done made it
I done made it
Aye
I feel like Moses feel i was chosen
Focus on dollars getting more hoes and am flossing
Don’t get offended am flexing
Got to make time for the bag zip it and tack it away
Got to make time for the craft drop it and make something new
I can’t spend more than a rack if I can’t double it back
This sh!t is deeper than rap got to be down for the count
Am doubting the process am looking for hope where did you go
Am waiting impatiently waiting to glow ready to go
Am floating on Jupiter waiting for no one to bring me the boat
The process is slow, i feel like Noah building the boat
If you don’t fall you don’t get stronga
Got to hold on little longer
If you don’t fall you don’t get stronga
Got to hold on little longer
If you don’t fall you don’t get
Stronga Stronga
Gotta hold on little
Longer Longer

My Little Rose
02:48
|
|||
Hmmmm
Yeah
My little rose
Oh how you glimmer
In red and pink
But sharply thorny
I know its spring
So go ahead and flourish
‘Cause am aware am aware am aware
Someone else might pluck you
I know there people that plucked your petals and left you in pain
You ran off to dating sites hoping to ease your pain
Afraid about the motive if we don’t dance to this beat
Ah love is in vain
I know these days dark i done some things that
Left you in plain
A shade of the colour that blinded me
Matter of fact it’s the pain that’d blinded me
There’s shade on a summer day
Please take my summary here is my resumé
There’s a light out the tunnel ay
Please let’s just be friends get rid of the fuckery
Life is just an activity
Love is the water keep hydrated
Keep the focus on the road
Let my hand rest on your thighs
When red lights simulate your rods
I’ll be the green light
Just hope i don’t do you dirty
Am scared to turn you feral ‘Cause love is what is life
Left behind all my regrets
When we argue and don’t forget
That ish prolly be fatal
Ah
You know the mutuel
With you i feel immortal
You’re the major am the freshman
I’ll treat you like a queen
I’ll take around the world and take you to my town
My little rose
Oh how you glimmer
In red and pink
But sharply thorny
I know its spring
Go ahead and flourish
‘Cause am aware am aware am aware
Someone else might pluck you
My Little rose
Oh how you
