Intro:
Relax yourself fam please settle down
(Repeat)
Relax chill out take a breath real smooth
Nickname as a youngin and I remain too cool,
Life change take it with grace
Under pressure when the best of me show face
The microphone burning like slow sage,
Let the vibe percolate at its own pace,
Feel alive meditate close your eyes
Float along for the ride keep your peace I prescribe,
The world is burning but it’s turning still
Always your mental is essential tend to it for real
Check in how you feel
Tap in get in touch unplug reconnect
With the life force, then when you centered interact
Had to step back, so I could step up
It’s been trauma overdue for time to bless up
Ain’t no shame in taking time for yourself
Nothing more revolutionary than taking care of your mental health
Chorus:
Breathe in
And breathe out
(Repeat)
That burden been heavy no pretending I know,
Masking it could be deadly could be better to show
Make happiness a priority not a treat
Simple concept yet the practice rather unique
Me myself I’m working on it,
Naturally ignore it at times but all it cost is some time I can afford it
Don’t apologize for the way you prioritize
Motivated by the all the lies twisted view of our lives
Take whatever action you gotta to see clear
And see it through, bliss is attainable
Read a book see the world write a poem drink something
Call a friend watch a film do a dance smoke something,
Whatever you feel if ain’t self destructive
You ain’t always gotta be on super productive
Listen more than I’m speaking so always up for discussion
Moving with urgency but no rushing sometimes you gotta
(Chorus)

Last Time

Nothing change still showing her same colors,
Doesn’t mean he ain’t feeling the pain of it,
She has every reason to love him but she don’t
He has every reason to hate, it’s crazy that he won’t
And if he did she would said say he out of line
She just keep the past outta sight outta mind
He said I know you always say you didn’t mean to
But I ain’t know better I would think it’s by design
Chorus:
The first time should’ve been the last time
The bad start looking like a pasttime
Since the first time only got worse
One wish we could put it in reverse
Seems like forever she been doing him wrong
She say I know how you feel but please put it in song
After you make me a house and personality too
Remember my beauty forget bout what I actually do,
And you the evil one in the relationship,
So stick to the script because it can’t flip
Damn it’s like he always in some cuffs
The kids and the house reason they ain’t breaking up
They had history, wasn’t always nice as it seemed
If he stay sleep she keep living her dream
Gradually I do turn to by any means
Fed up, now they could blow up off anything,
The children were pure but some corrupt now,
It’s too much dynamite for one house
Can he even be one of her friends
She say let’s compromise baby then she’ll do it again
(Chorus)
The first time should’ve been the last time
America, the first time should've been the last time

Beat Goes On

Hello is this thing on reporting live
To have a mind to be insane or borderline
I’m inside with all of the masses,
So many screens and all of em static,
The truth like a needle in a haystack on fire
The ashes reveal the real
To touch the world gotta have that feel
All love no beef still guard ya grill
Maintain composure the children they turned into soldiers
You talk don’t act then it’s already over
Everybody playing they roles
No time for ‘you know that’s just the way that it goes’
One mind with many limbs, gotta reach far
Gods or animals we know which we are
And I find joy as I walk in the purpose I’m meant for
Paul set the vibe Blaxx setting the tempo let’s go
Chorus:
Ready set and then we go, off
Rock steady and the beat go, on
Rock steady and the beat go, on
Rock Steady
(Repeat)
Turn up the volume that’s it,
Don’t think it ever’ll die it’s classic,
The only place for a dream is a mattress,
The only fate for a plan is action,
Let’s keep movin with urgency wouldn’t call it a rush
But thinking change automatic so out of touch
It’s generations of what was already taught
So we ain’t caught off guard by what was already fought
All through New York, the streets were silent
And now they angry, but that ain’t violent
Property damage ain’t equal to life now
Blue lives fake that ain’t even a lifestyle
Our lives more than matter celebrated essential
We are and it’s just that simple
So we can stop surviving and thrive in the way we were meant to
Paul set the vibe Blaxx setting the tempo let’s go
(Chorus)
The streets is packed the mask is on
The gloves is off the mic is on the will is strong we on,
Looks like it we on
