She like boy you too slow You be going through the motions Live fast when you lost in the moment Waves crash that’s the path of the ocean Eyes on the prize minimize the emotion Words that I wrote I eloped with my own pen Can’t choke on the smoke I’m a grown man Word to my niggas in the Chi that’s on foenem Just another star tryna shine outta Oakland Yeah The path that I walk Can't be mad Can’t be bought Get a bag Just to talk Want it all Need a lot Know we all that we got Light it up Make it hot Tell them know what you know If you don’t then you not We could go toe to toe I still end up on top If you really on a roll then you know it don’t stop All gas no breaks On go on lock Big Basi in this bitch so you know we gone rock They say I can’t shine but I’m golden Always on time I was chosen Nothing you could find gone hold him tell me that it’s mine baby put me in control then Life ain’t a fair game it’s a cheat code Live right show love to yo people Aye The first step moving yo feet bro Keep doing what you doing we gone be ok She like the way I swang on the beat Running game Break the chain Make a name they could see What he do I did the same in a week You don’t wanna feel the shame you could blame it on me They say I can’t shine but I’m golden Always on time I was chosen Nothing you could find gone hold him Tell me that it’s mine baby put me in control then

Turn Me Off 02:50
Lost in the abyss Tell me what it cost for me to not be in this shit What could you really offer me to not be what it is Tell me what we lost and I’ll find it in this bitch It’s all timing like the wrist We ain’t watching when we in it only when we reminisce Hindsight 2020 and the limelight bliss Yeah I might not know but I know my shit And I owe my soul to the ones I miss I ain’t on my own but sometimes It feels like I’m alone The sunshine can’t seem to find my home And I feel a need to write my wrongs So I breathe and bleed into these songs And I know we free But I don’t know ‘Cause why do my needs outweigh my wants? And why can’t I be the way I want? And why can’t I see what they saw? What changed in me and what time was lost? Who raised the price? Who changed the cost? We all exhausted baby Turn me off Turn me off Long as time keep ticking And the waves keep dipping Baby ain’t no changing me One time I was tryna be different I was obviously trippin’ Playin’ games it was plain to see And everybody can’t see what was hidden Can’t breathe what we livin’ Can’t be who we came to be So boy you better breathe for a minute Everybody can’t see when we in it Why you gotta attitude? Who you speaking on? Why you bring a bad mood to who was waiting on you? Now you got that nigga mad cause you breathing wrong I ain’t saying what to do but you better be cool Baby I ain’t really mad but you did me wrong I don’t want the bad news but you could tell me that too Just talk to me Walk with me baby come through Spend time intertwined baby What you wanna do? I need to give my all to the booth Not you Girl I know I’m a star so it’s all overdue Talking clothes and the cars and the cash jewels And mansions and pools all designed for the few But I can’t be a fool and I know what’s the truth But I don’t know what to do We all lost til we long in the tooth then poof Lights out lifes gone don’t nobody miss you Just play my shit when they ask who’s who Like Basi made hits but he had loose screws Like Basi made hits but he had loose screws Long as time keep ticking And the waves keep dipping Baby ain’t no changing me One time I was tryna be different I was obviously trippin’ Playin’ games it was plain to see And everybody can’t see what was hidden Can’t breathe what we livin’ Can’t be who we came to be So boy you better breathe for a minute Everybody can’t see when we in it

I gave you my all Now who you gon’ call? How did it all fall Where did I go wrong? I waited too long I know i'm too grown What the fuck was I on? This is the last song I bent the back bone I need to go home This taking mad long I’m smoking on strong Please don’t run in the rain Don’t handle the flame You can’t handle the pain now We all one and the same but im making a change and I’m doing my thing now Please don’t run in the rain Don’t handle the flame You can’t handle the pain now We all one and the same but I’m making a change and I’m doing my thing now We started from a flame in the night Tried to feign from the light but some things you can’t fight Only go where I know in the night I’m alright but I go through these lows in the flight Tryna reach new heights You know this life all rolls of the dice I thought I told you I’m nice Her eyes so inviting Mind so enticing We take the ride And it’s so exciting Love on arrival Ain’t no describing You drive me crazy You my asylum I’m dying daily You tryna find him Ima product of my environment It was all up to you deciding it We was losing time And we was lost in silence Tryna calm the violence I was on a island Almost lost the rhyming What’s the cost of trying Ain’t no love when the light is dying I told her Please don’t run in the rain Don’t handle the flame You can’t handle the pain now We all one and the same but im making a change and I’m doing my thing now Please don’t run in the rain Don’t handle the flame You can’t handle the pain now We all one and the same but im making a change and I’m doing my thing now God Bless whoever hating on me. Under my nose you ain’t my on my team What went wrong We was family Now I’m gone don’t worry ‘bout me. How come how come You try to X me like Malcolm All these years let this be the outcome Can’t fix ya lips to say I ain’t the realest you been with How could you call me fake when i confront you on some real shit All communication I’ve initiated Can tell that you be quiet while inside you really hating Dismissive with your attitude I ain't mad at you You say we are compatible When you out of moves Gaslighting Manipulation Pacifying Grams dying You didn’t say shit I’m past lying Sound of your fibs you pretend to be I was down when you kicked You ain’t kin I see I gave you my all Now who you gone call? How did it all fall? Where did I go wrong? I waited too long I know I'm too grown What the fuck was I on? This is the last song I bent the back bone I need to go home This taking mad long I’m smoking on strong Please don’t run in the rain Don’t handle the flame You can’t handle the pain now We all one and the same but im making a change and I’m doing my thing now Please don’t run in the rain Don’t handle the flame You can’t handle the pain now We all one and the same but I’m making a change and I’m doing my thing now
