| Now it may take a minute to get it, but when it comes. |
| We’ll split in half
|
| They say that we tend to talk slow, but we listen fast
|
| 1−9-7−8-er straight is what we gonna be
|
| This is how it sounds when me and Zak let our soul speak
|
| Rhythm is a language, back & forth. |
| Sway motion
|
| Daily, we’ve been upgrading. |
| Waiting for an opening
|
| Both feet forward, keep the dope beat going
|
| Plus our tones speak boldly, hopefully earn the trophy
|
| For what we stand for, really can’t go wrong
|
| Born year of the horse, songs tend to mirror our thoughts
|
| We was taught, to be sincere at an early age
|
| We went against the grain, so the brainwash done rinsed away
|
| And we never switched just to fit up in their folder
|
| On beats Zak’s more fonky as he gets older
|
| Potent like, Ammonia. |
| But we don’t brag
|
| We’re just perfecting our craft, so in the end we’ll be a better man
|
| Hook
|
| Do yall even understand
|
| Sometimes love is all we have
|
| We done learned from our past, mom & pops cleared a path
|
| So one day they’ll encourage their sons to be a better man
|
| 2nd Verse
|
| U’ve gotta have that de-votion
|
| That’s what its called when you’re earning your worth
|
| While I’m on this earth, many times I’ve been burnt
|
| That had to happen though
|
| Cuz if it didn’t I would never grow
|
| Set up for the better, head is up high when I’m feeling low
|
| But I never let it show
|
| Go back then edit the present
|
| Shaping the future by, raising my youth up
|
| Bread, we gotta scoop up
|
| The rent I pay is too much
|
| Due first every new month or else they trynna sue us
|
| But nahh. |
| I paid 'em off, keep the cable on
|
| Grind take up most of your time, see what I’m aiming for
|
| Fast forward to more, soar but sure
|
| Gotta sharpen my sword, talking to yall thru song. |
| Move on
|
| To what I’m destined. |
| Best, and nothin less than. |
| I took what I had,
|
| then expand. |
| Meaning I stretched it
|
| Planned, then I invested. |
| Take care of my fam
|
| I’m doing all that I can, so in the end I’ll be a better man
|
| Hook
|
| Our ancestors from the past
|
| They stood for more than just the cash
|
| We’ve gotta give all that we have, pass wealth around
|
| So the generations later have their chance to be a better man
