So do i touch the sky, or dare i aim higher than that, yo i reach for the stars, yer im flying in fact, yer i pick up, like im high in the back, yer im high in the back, if you with me do i touch the sky, or aim higher then that, yer i reach for the stars nah im flying in fact, do i touch the sky, or higher than that, do i touch the sky, or shall i turn back to the life i lead, back then when i wasn't involved in this game as fully, as i could’ve been, now im rolling with the girls that are full of sin, and them super model girls that are super thin, now im staring at my headphones, dangle from my neckbone, and thinking about the artist I could’ve been, and all the passed mixtapes saying bring us in, traded in all my supporters for silly things, now they don’t care for me one bit, but I don’t trip, because the money and the power is something, broke up with the wife, now I only mess with dumb chicks, aint got many friends in fact none, sh*t, am I looking to the future should I warn myself? But its looking pretty good like a horny MIFL, I could simply put my old soul up on the shelf, But I don’t wanna be a shell of my former self, So dare I aim higher than that, yer I reach for the stars, Yer im flying in fact, yer I pick up, like im high in the back, yer im high in the back, if you with me do I touch the sky, Or aim higher than that, yer I reach for the stars yer im flying in fact, Do I touch the sky, or higher than that, do I touch the sky, Or shall I turn back to the place, in which I went to when I was a kid, Noticeably I was different to other kids, Always spoke my mind faster than others did, A ticking time bomb blast to some other ish, I had to grow up real fast, in the middle of the past, Never sitting on the grass with the other kids, I heard hip-hop when it was still hot, I bought a few albums and, fell in love with it, But will I touch the sky? Well ill push my way through until im next in line, As far as mixtapes go, this my second time, And ill rinse the world, until im left to dry, Im a post-grad now, I rest my mind, I know somewhere a treasure chest to find, Show no fear, protect whats mine, Protect whats yours, get left behind im a quick to draw, Quick to learn from all the dumb mistakes in which I did before, Got the whole room watching me, as if I was dumb enough To volunteer myself to take the floor, So I take the floor, give me a second to breathe, Like revolving doors, its like a circle to me, If you wanting more, you better believe, I got my foot in the door and I aint ever gonna leave, So do I touch the sky, or higher than that, yer I reach for the stars, Yer im flying in fact, yer I pick up, like im high in the back, yer im high in the back, if you with me do I touch the sky, Or higher than that, yer I reach for the stars yer im flying in fact, Do I touch the sky, or higher than that, do I touch the sky, Or higher than that like….

Find My Way 03:09
VERSE 1 Let a brother know, do you want my heart do you think that this a joke, warming up to you but you need to be involved, more than a high school crush, from back when we were in school, girl, I hear what your saying, but I aint come around again unless your staying, and I don’t really like the head games that your playing, ill make your family name just another maiden, your daddy won’t like that, I wanna take you out to dinner girl despite that, And if I messaged you I miss you the same night at, Around 3am and woke you would you write back? Honest, ill write you everyday girl, Just to ask “Baby how your day go?” Paint me a picture of exactly how your dreams go, You make me think of every colour of the rainbow, Like the moonlight after dark, And every summer buying ice creams in the park, Giving you sexy names and wait for your remarks, Oh your cold? Let me hold you in my arms, Chorus x2: Now you took my heart for the evening, Kiss my cheek moved in you confused things, Should I just sit out or come harder, And help me find my way, Your like a flower in June, I could sit here everyday and watch you bloom, When the birds sing they only sing for you, Only the sweetest notes composed to make your tune, And the way the story goes, I can be here through the high points and the lows, Soft summer air and the sound of water flows, Stroke your pretty skin softer then a rose, Rosemary, a homegrown berry, The longer it takes, the sweeter the jelly, I don’t wanna wait, your sweet to the belly, I know it feels great but lets wait until your ready, But I aint tryna rush things, And you can feel free to put your trust in, Im only out here saying what you must think, No bluff, aint a sucker for love thing Chorus x4

VERSE 1 Like a diamond in the dirt, You come up through the city then you gotta stay alert, All up in the studio please do not disturb, Try and get my point across through every single word, Its kinda difficult when you’re a dumb brat and loud, But on the other hand we got the young, black and proud, But pride is a fickle thing, We gotta learn that, we aint gonna always win, All of my brothers and my sisters that I represent, Whether your black or white there aint no colour in the ends, Im here to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing else, We fit descriptions but why is there no one else, Committing homicides, I find that hard to believe, We 10% not even half of them look like me, Lets keep it positive, young brothers coming up, Ill step aside and ill wish you all the best of luck, Im out here tryna live the dream but my dream gets stuck, In the grime and the bitterness and lack of love, I lost my cousin and some friends yer I miss ya cuz, Hey im a rapper now im tryna make a difference cuz, Fans message me like Ty, how come you aint signed? I don’t know fam, I aint really hard to find, All my young kings work hard stay on your hustle, And all my young queens, beautiful stay out of trouble, Let no one sway you from your dreams, coz they’re getting closer, You got the weight of the world resting on your shoulder, You feel the hate, of all of your enemies, But when you stare into their eyes-only look for peace, Closer to my dreams, closer to my dreams VERSE 2 I keep my head high most days most nights, I got a lot of friends most just aint the close type, Ill bring a little pop just to try and gain some leverage, But they don’t care if im out here tryna send a message, But nuff love to ya, tryna make the moula, I write my thoughts down, Amen, Halleluiah, My thought patterns different measuring it with a ruler, Oh you’re a teacher, pleasure that I ever knew ya, We need more doctors, teachers, and nurses, We stuck with rappers & MC’s and verses, I mean its entertaining but it aint gon’ change the world, But your more likely a bigger house and plenty girls, See how materialistic is all up on our brain, For the money we could pour our soul right down the drain, I aint no better but at least to me its clear as day, And with this knowledge, I can start to pave the way, Closer to my dreams, each and everyday, If their black and white, then look for grey, We aint the predators, but we aint the prey, Listen to your heart, not what people say, Closer to my dreams, closer to my dreams

Its to the point that I be tryna escape, I reach the mothership they dissapear while flying away, they reaching out to me focussing on paving the way, I wanna go with them but telling me im destined to stay, I got a task to follow but Apollo gives me the creeps, realizing now for over 20 years ive just been asleep, Im im the chosen one, Im wondering why they’ve chosen me, I take a shot of dissarano just to put me to sleep, I been here for 22 years and still finding my feet, I look for messages in everything when its on repeat, They tell me keep your mouth closed, don’t you dare make a peep, Address me properly stop talking out the side of your cheek, I sit here quietly, waiting till its my turn to speak, If you don’t follow me respect is something that you can keep, Way too much controversy open up the cage to the beast, Sit round the table friends for this will be our very last feast, I eat with friends until the loneliness gets stuck in my teeth, I start to realise that my closest friends aint nothing like me, But id be wrong if I ever say they don’t make me smile, And they’ll be sad when I say that ill be gone for a while, Im in a prison but no jury, no judge and no trial, Im on the mothership, handcuffed, walking the isle, I mutter words under my breath, words that are vile, Staring at the front deck in a state of denial, Im looking at a huge sphere like you seen in a game, They showing me their homeland just to spark off the flame, Telling me they more advanced but we one of the same, Spread the word in return, we’ll give you your fame, But with the fame comes the hate, well that’s what they say, And with the hate comes the love, and that’s all it takes, So lord listen if I die, before I wake, Im heading to the next world, and ill meet you there, Take me out of this cell, break out of the cage, Coz I gotta spread the word, its hard to explain, But im telling the truth, its hard to believe, Im on the mothership and I don’t wanna leave, I don’t wanna leave

Sexy Can I 01:48
Sexy can I, meet you up for lunch, Write a day in my planner, Maybe more then once, Im a Leo you’re a Cancer We both desire fun, The only thing that I don’t want, regrets when this is done, Sexy can I, call you by your name, The one that your mama gave you not for silly games, She just out to protect you and I wanna do the same, So when your feeling down yo lets divide up all the pain, Sexy can I, visit you at work, I aint got a lot of doh, we’ll chill up at the park, And as for the big shots that keep on driving passed, Until I make it big ill ride you on my handlebars, Sexy can I, sweetest ever known, Ill kiss you, real soft, on your collar bone And play some Lauryn Hill directly off my phone, every 3 minutes and 30 seconds that we’re alone, Sexy can I, put a pretty ring, On your pretty little hand I, make a princess grin, Like we caught up in some banter, always let ya win, Just so I can hear you giggle while I push you on the swing, Sexy can I, maybe sneak a kiss, I know you feel it too got my hands up on your hips, And you don’t have to ask me once pretty be my guest, And every time you’re close my heart beat faster in my chest, Sexy can I, tell you what I learned, I told this girl I loved her but she’d rather see me burn, Ignoring all my calls like she just wasn’t concerned, And other people saying don’t just wait for her return, Sexy can I, have my heard back, she just start laughing like how you like that, She took true love, and covered it in crap, So you gotta be careful, because this world is full of skanks

Bring us In 02:59
Bring us in, yer ill say it again, bring us in, until raps back on track im filling in, I hold it close to my heart like "how longs it been", I aint saying its dead, but its looking grim, mainstream get the cash boy make it blow, underground hold it down you our only hope, so many obstacles up in the game to break your thoughts, keep going hard nah, let nature take its course, Im just a small fish coming out a bigger town, 5 words, what goes around comes around, and i aint getting involved unless your really down, colour aint much, and I don't care if your black or brown, I see the future, yer I said it once before, I pioneer, now follow through the open door, I don't show love or hate, I only show respect, we from the same generation what do you expect? Yo, what do you expect, I hit the ground running, you taking baby steps, I take a piece of the pie, there any gravy left? you want a chance then cuz, you better break your neck, Im in a classroom alone, nah let me start again, Im in a class of my own now someone bring us in, Im tired of getting slept on and yo the time is now, if its money you worried about Ill hold it down, Im the artist so lemme do what I does, Ill get a million views just to prove something cuz, I aint signed, I don't even know whats the fuss, i know some rappers thats signed that still ride the bus, "But what am I doing with my life" do you need to ask, Im for the people Im changing it from I to us, power in numbers, so finally when I bite the dust, you can turn around and say that you turned hate to love, Yo, turning hate to love, I been destined to blow since I was 8 years up, open your eyes, Im here to wake you up, I bet my life you gon' change, thats a gamblers luck, either Im changing the world, or ima change myself, power of the mind, thats my truest wealth, I wanna show you inside but only time will tell, If im one of a kind, i guess your one as well, Tss, But we only men, I had some friends turn to foes then to friends again, I call them associates because the friendships slim, You still can't see the truth, then put your lenses in, Im 2 chapters ahead, left you remembering, I got the coldest flow ever call it December man, Ill make it using my mind no need for Symbol-ling, So Ill say this one last time, Bring us in

VERSE 1 Its like my student loan won’t pay back itself, So hit the real world, Now im heading to work, but I don’t feel well, The first day jitters is like a mission im impressed, No joggers no trainers yer im formally dressed, Important to me, man I picture back then, Sitting next to a chick, yo can I borrow a pen? Whats your name? whats you study? Are you in my next class? The first lines you drop if you wanna tap ass, Im just breezing through the semester high fees And the reading list is extensive, im meeting a guest With dreams in her head, tight jeans and some breast, Im eager to step, with little miss wow, Go back to her dorm, and zip her jeans down, Then back to the bar, and order few rounds, Go our separate ways, im glad that I met ya, Lets meet again soon, but damn im late for lecture, VERSE 2 Take over the backseats, of the classroom theatre, Staring at my watch till the end gets nearer, Hey girl you wanna go study just us? We chill up in the library from dawn till dusk, From dusk till dawn, yer we head back to her room, Hook up the ps3, and play till morning, Every man with a bottle of Henny, like we ballin, Student loan funding out nights and early morning Banter, with the rest of the mandem, Thank her, for her hospitality, back to reality, I got an exam, in the afternoon, Which I haven’t studied for, so give me some room, To think, for a second, I cram it in quick, Im in the exam room and im taking my seat, Man this ish is too easy but no disrespect, And when the grades come back, every answer correct, This amateur stuff
