The Sub Way |
| Started in Cheverly, the line was orange |
| On January 7th, a star was born |
| Stayed in Seat Pleasant ‘til mom and I moved on |
| To the next stop, come ride along |
| Left pops, moms tired of the fighting and tears |
| So in Landover’s where I spent my formative years |
| While living here I met my oldest of peers |
| Underprivileged yet I’m overcoming my fears |
| Like robberies and shootins, now we out in Suitland |
| Right behind my high school to focus on my schoolin' |
| No longer boostin, now I’m beat looping |
| Pre-To This Union, writing with my blue pen |
| Penning blue lines from Pentagon & Addison |
| Battle raps dumb funny like Billy Madison |
| Battlin, til my name spread like a pathogen |
| This is just the start I can feel it in my abdomen! |
| All I see is lines, letters, colors |
| Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers |
| Runnin' thru my mind, what to make of it |
| It’ll make sense one day |
| All I see is lines, letters, colors |
| Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers |
| Limit’s the sky, ready, comin' |
| Take the Sub way |
| Left Maryland, but still spittin these bars |
| Next stop Brooklyn, off of Clinton & Wash |
| New York, New York was the City of Gods |
| In Hip Hop, big stage. |
| Hope they give me a part |
| Took the 4 Union Square, rap ciphers galore |
| Or the A to West 4th hoping I’m in the store |
| Fats Beats showed love, thought I made it for sure |
| Years later, All City on an NY tour… now… |
| All I see is lines, letters, colors |
| Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers |
| Runnin' thru my mind, what to make of it |
| It’ll make sense one day |
| All I see is lines, letters, colors |
| Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers |
| Limit’s the sky, ready, comin' |
| Take the Sub way |
| Take the J to Koscuiszko to see old the crib |
| Or the 2 to Flatbush another place that I lived |
| Shot to JFK, first Tokyo trip |
| Bullet train’s like magic, blew my whole brain to bits |
| Everything’s changin' chances being taken |
| More time at Grand Central and Penn Station |
| OT. |
| Brazen… confidence. |
| Amazing… |
| Where my train of thought took me with a little training |
| All I see is lines, letters, colors |
| Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers |
| Runnin' thru my mind, what to make of it |
| It’ll make sense one day |
| All I see is lines, letters, colors |
| Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers |
| Limit’s the sky, ready, comin' |
| Take the Sub way |
| Headed back to MD had a family to start |
| Now in Baltimore City couple minutes from the MARC |
| Spending time in DC teaching youth and rippin mics |
| Kill a show on U St. at Benning Road I save a life |
| Did the same off Southern Ave. teaching kids to rhyme & more |
| If I wasn’t with the youth, highly like I’m on tour |
| Then our brother Junior passed rocked our family to the core |
| Relocated to VA to hold the fam down for sure |
| Out in the burbs not too far Dunn Loren |
| Still nice with the verbs and far from done touring |
| Now we in Huntington and I’m maturing |
| Still in PG everyday ‘cause I’ma support’em |
| Where it all started, I’ll head home someday |
| Journey’s never easy but I’m making it… someway |
| Some tracks are curved and some straight |
| And not everybody will Take the Sub way |
