New year

it’s a new year but 
I haven’t changed one bit
I’m like a bank teller 
people bring me their 2 cents 

so I take it and deposit it
and add it to the safe

thats a picture 
that I paint 
what I mean 
is I will take it to the grave

loyalty and trust
mixed with love and the lust

makes us who we are
we’re either stars or we’re dust

seeking for the truth 
I have to find it’s a must

I’m like a bullet loaded in the chamber 
when I bust

I will never do something 
if it feels unjust 

i like walks in the park 
and a nicotine buzz 

I get lost in myself 
tryna find who I was

I don’t like to talk a lot
cause if I do I open up

I feel peace and solace every time 
I keep my heart shut 

 everytime I let it open 
they just hurt it and it cuts 

I don’t know what’s thicker is it water or it’s blood 

Is that water or the liquor that be feeling up my cup

at this point I’m going numb
so it all feels the same 

I’m not even mad 
I don’t got no one to blame

but myself 
I’m the reason why I’m feeling all this pain

some people going hungry 
while Im rocking all my chains

some sleeping on 
the streets but a bed is right where I lay 

I’ve been so damn blessed 
so why the fuck do I complain?

I could’ve had way worse
ignoring Gods favors

and for that I’m sorry 
I’m talking to my savior 

I’m feeling like a failure 
with the ways of my behavior 

it’s so complicated
applying the Occam’s razor

I will never settle 
for least 
I want the greater 

I don’t care to make you proud
I save that shit for my creator

they turned their back on me
I’m like fuck it see you later

way too many best friends 
that all ended up as traitors 

so don’t take it personal when I don’t want no favors 

it’s not your fault 

but I just do not see this pain that I carry really 
falling off 

I swear I juggle my thoughts
so no wonder why I’m lost 

but no matter how bad it gets
I’m carrying my cross

I could never be a man that’s getting  caught up
in a loss

I just take it on the chin
and then I keep it movin

and my words are packin power
like political movements

they all wolves in sheep’s clothing
and I see right through it

every time I have  a dream
ima go and pursue it

I’m the same old me 
yeah shit ain’t changed 
I’m that pure hearted kid
always having some fun

even though I grew up in the hood yeah it was rough 
surrounded by the drugs 
surrounded by the guns
surrounded by the thugs 
got me feeling like the one

so when it comes to games
guarantee that I play none 

but if I ever did it 
I can guarantee I won 

everybody else be walking 
and crawling I fucking run

I don’t got no time to waste
at this point of time and place
man this rap shit be feeling like a piece of fucking cake 

7 days a week
I don’t ever take breaks

chasing after goals from the moment that I wake

so and come tell me what I represent?
real over fake shit 
what we do is evident 
everybody knows it’s excellent
I’m in my element  

I be treating rap like it’s a regiment

Chill, relaxed, rap, light spacey beat
