FELLINI (2019)

I wrote and produced all these songs this week and wanted to release it this week cause this is how I feel this week. I dunno if I'll feel like this next week, but this week this is me. It took me 3 days to put this all together. This one is really personal, that's all I really got to say, holla if you can relate!

Anchor 1

Ghetto Piloting

Major rioting ghetto piloting/

don’t ya know don’t ya know

They raised the taxes while we watched Netflix n relaxed a bit/

I gotta big screen mi room I don’t even leave/

mi hair fell out from these chemicals/

but fuck it we got weaves

this is not a tease/

we playing chess w Socrates/

honestly I understood he out mi league/

I came from nada

it don’t mean I gotta die empty handed/

by taking what I’m owed they label me a bandit/

I don’t wanna run the globe just jog around the planet/

all these rough edges they need somebody to sand it/

from the Sahara to Savannah to the corn of Indiana/

to the ocean by California I extend my hand out/

I wrote this draft like beer/

I hops like beer I intoxicate like beer/

bitch I’m more straight Henny/

partying w some lot lizards outback the semi/

I got many friends in the streets/

you ran when he grabbed that heat/

that’s my g he means the world to me/

together we conquer everything/

we conquer everything we conquer everything

we conquer everything

Major rioting ghetto piloting/

don’t ya know don’t ya know

Yo flow is garbage and you ain’t talking nada/

here’s a waste basket I think it’s time to dump your product/

worried bout Prada we talking bout a black renaissance/

but y’all still running in place when does the BS stop/

the homie Eddie was like Kenny we could write the Bible/

our words cut thru vests like the strongest rifle/

when Bob Marley crafted survival/

he hoped my mama would live

so she could give it this gift/

her kid born Californian

work one day will be in the Smithsonian/

complex but not a phony man/

not a holy man

but dryer of eyes/

problem solver like every sheriff calls his revolver/

I’m in your head like Jeffrey Dalmer

no degree but a scholar/

hopefully not a martyr

I wanna see grand babies/

when I infect the next generation like rabies/

maybe then n only then you’ll realize I wasn’t crazy/

I got many friends in the streets/

you ran when he grabbed that heat/

that’s my g he means the world to me/

together we conquer everything/

we conquer everything we conquer everything

we conquer everything

Major rioting ghetto piloting/

don’t ya know don’t ya know

If you ain’t first you last I ain’t giving a pass/

you lie thru yo teeth when you talking fast/

is it this or that hit em w a dab/

you gon clap back you gon clap back/

To Hell

I was cruising thru France/

and uh just by chance invited you to dance/

you fancy a smoke/

I’ll light the cigarette mi lips made it wet/

I passed it to the left/

mi hair felt the wind yours did too cuz it drift/

I ain’t going back to the states let’s escape in a cave/

n spend every day/

mi life revolves around getting payed/

like ice off the top it’s shaved/

like a high fade the government took so much of a cut/

mi head spins like what/

now we in Marseille somebody give a wave/

to mi broke ass days we wavy/

splashing w every current fuck being current/

never get stuck permanent we flow like river/

I fuck bad bitches n make knees quiver/

so you take notes as I stand n deliver/

punched so many tix to the mile high club they call me Denver/

I tower like the Colorado Rockies/

Cascade to Cascades dust to ash treys/

dumped in black seas floating like salt/

quake every fault great every song/

can’t we get along or are we s'posed to fall/

Hit Barcelona on a whim/

felt like Pablo building mi home again/

mi feeling of escaping has become a trend/

I may have did it before but I fell in love again/

was too intoxicated so I hit the pub again/

does that even make sense otra vez cerveza/

pago por el rounds pa'tna pour it down/

in Camp Nou I drowned... barely found/

the subway is a one way ticket to mi vision/

but if I no longer kick it I just buy another ticket/

long ways from the days where I dreamed that I could visit/

if this rap shit don’t pay off at least I’m still living/

bleedin' in crippin' and vice lordin' n Latin kingin' is not ringing/

or registering in mi cabeza spit out the razor/

greeted mi neighbor what is this bullshit/

mi vida's a prayer and it's onion layered/

They try to tell me mi life was gone/

to hell/

and I am wrong/

to embrace a fail/

the past is that/

it’s rearing it’s ugly head/

it doesn’t have to define what we doing next/

I was walking thru the Latin quarter of Paris/

baguette and some vino do you wanna share it/

maybe we can embrace maybe we can share this/

moment of hesitation/

we ain't gon be young forever/

i was told that once we age it's gon be better/

let's make kids in our French countryside mansion/

why even think about it why even plan it/

Mass Marketing

Let’s take it back to 05/

when Kanye was mi hero when I ain’t know how to drive/

when Amy wine was dripping thru mi sound system/

we would kick it we would kick it we would kick it/

back when asses weren’t that big/

back when being black wasn’t in fashion/

I was just a kid being me/

slangin' beats everyone wanted to rap on em but wouldn’t pay/

fuck you im worth a planet/

you're lucky to catch mi ear your lucky I soothe your fears/

your lucky a brotha like me would pay attention to yo wackass/

everyone n they mama can kiss mi blackass/

Besos everywhere like Bezo everywhere/

I’m raping everyone’s wallet n you’ll still sit there n swallow/

I call it the Amazon effect/

Diana prince or Jeff/

You got mass marketing cuz you got the talents/

someone please call Thanos to bring the balance/

You got mass marketing cuz you got the talents/

someone please call Thanos to bring the balance/

I crept slow w the windows cracked down on mi tiptoes/

doing mental gymnastics swerving round all the asses/

I should teach some classes on how to peak n keep/

climbing the top never outta reach/

fake it till you make it project outter peace/

inside you tore up stiff upper lip/

the beginning ain’t the end don’t get it shifted/

don’t ever feel you a burden for existing/

Keith Sweat got it twisted/

if nobody wanna listen all I say is forget em/

opinions we split em I can’t be loved by everybody/

so you fall off the cliff w em/

living lemmings followers until the end/

standing out shawty you a god send/

here’s a lil advice for yo pocket/

dead the drama someone chalk it/

You got mass marketing cuz you got the talents/

someone please call Thanos to bring the balance/

You got mass marketing cuz you got the talents/

someone please call Thanos to bring the balance/

Hong Kong

It’s national day shall I simplify the stakes/

they beat us till we slide like skates/

mi hand shakes as I take a deep breath/

promised democracy’s no longer a step/

they want our words muted like we got strep/

won’t even let us cough near their direction/

so I light flares n tried to spare/

another productive night maybe see mi mummy/

call mi girl call mi boss/

took the day off now mi brain is clogged/

you ever wake up like this could be the last day I see/

good grief/

when you ask for basics n they just twist they faces/

n try to about face in front of the world

fuck them/

they are not the good guys/

good guys don’t willingly end good lives/

They taking blood like phlebotomy/

drained mi veins it’s pornography/

violence n sex mi spirit connects/

you feel it you bet every bead of sweat/

cold mornings hot nights hand drawn signs/

street lights cop lights/

blue and white sirens blaring/

babies crying you woke em up you scared em/

oh I think we graduated from flare guns

n tear gas n bean bags/

they got automatics with infinite supply of mags/

it’s like Call of Duty on God mode no Russian/

they called our civil discussion fussin'/

this vehicle of peace broke down n rusted/

the faucet of love has done crusted/

will ever flow again can we get it running/

No face masks

How can I face that

Aleppo

We bomb the shit outta these countries n don’t even stop to think who are we affecting/

greed/

mi life of paying taxes to a murderous machine/

fiend/

you always scratching that itch as an American like what can I conquer next/

lives ruined no thought process taken/

Reagan after Reagan/

projects tore down we thought good/

but then you stuffed us in the motherfucking hood/

then you annexed part of the hood fixed where the whites would/

possibly wanna raise kids/

our kids get shit education/

books outdated Reagan after Reagan/

these kids can’t even get access to internet/

but they can get crack cocaine in an instant/

fuck the system who drew this division/

we were slaves then Jim Crowed/

the police bust thru our doors/

kill on site for an acquittal/

it’s like our own Aleppo/

Atlanta Chicago South Central/

Brooklyn Harlem USA/

death's like multivitamins I see 2 a day/

What you know about Aleppo

what you know bout the echos/

what you know bout the souls that were special/

what you know bout heading ten fold/

to your death yo

what do ya know about it/

Call me shrink tell him get tall shoulders/

we gon be standing on em by the time this is over/

we elected an ogre nobody wanna throw him over/

all this rhetoric is bullshit n a headache/

everybody wanna say fuck Trump but nobody wanna line up/

nobody wanna lose they comfy job or lose their health insurance/

the kids can protest when they ain’t got shit/

skip a day o' school that’s cool/

but when you paying bills n ain’t making ends meet/

when you keep grabbing failure from the jaws of defeat/

what do you think

this is we this is me/

this is real Americans in these bloody streets/

this is tryna afford petrol in yo Jeep/

to take gramma to the hospital next week/

this is stretching paychecks just to pay rent/

when you occupied you don’t think of all this/

you don’t realize where your taxes go/

and that you funded the assault on Aleppo/

and that you funded the assault on Chicago/

and that we fund the coke sold to li'l Rollo/

and that funded the meth in Ohio/

and that the northwest is more than Portland n Seattle/

n beyond those mountains millions are due to overdose/

I promise you Joe this hits close to home/

What you know about Aleppo

what you know bout the echos/

what you know bout the souls that were special/

what you know bout heading ten fold/

to your death yo

what do ya know about it/

You ever swim in filth/

you feel fulfilled then get your stomach pumped/

you ever get on your feet then get the rug pulled/

you ever turn the heavens yelling fuck you/

you ever question god you ever ask is it odd/

whenever I need help he’s nowhere to be found/

but I’m s'posed to pray and give attention and count my blessings/

I started w 1 ended w 1/

you ever feed a family on minimum wage/

you ever try to grab your dream but you can’t/

you ever realize that those making headway/

have a family history of doing these things/

you ever imagine you can actually trailblaze/

you ever say this is me it ain’t a phase/

you ever age and still feel the same/

if you did ima say you n me are the same/

What you know about Aleppo

what you know bout the echos/

what you know bout the souls that were special/

what you know bout heading ten fold/

to your death yo

what do ya know about it/

Nights in the Capital

There’s a man on meth/

I smelt that death now what’s next/

there was a protest/

but what was it for

there’s a club to the left/

should I attend I attest/

if I take a few shots/

I’ll be standing on bar straight beating mi chest/

there’s a party all nite/

when I was a child I never knew bout this life/

where the freaks n geeks and upperclass mix/

and it’s just for kicks/

when that liquor spills/

and they stepping on shoes and mi gente loose/

society gotta bunch a screws loose/

Nights in the capital city of mi country/

sometimes I don't feel i'm really awake/

Nights in the capital city of mi country/

Hold ya breath baby

got old folks rolling up next to me on they rascal/

I left the country for bit shit peep the stamps in mi passport/

an overview of mi life so far is that what you asked for/

had a girl we were so connected I cut that umbilical/

banned her ass from all my social media to keep it civil/

quit my job cut mi locks it felt liberating/

I caught you up to the last 5 years hope it was so stimulating/

Nights in the capital city of mi country/

sometimes I don't feel i'm really awake/

Nights in the capital city of mi country/

To feel how I feel I need gin/

I need to take you back 5 years ago/

not a cent to mi nombre all on mi own/

no passport no place to stay/

freezing in the city of the Chi like will it rain today/

dark clouds followed me every where I went/

left leg had a limp God I’m spent/

punching clocks blowing checks before I got em/

so much debt credit cards a fuckin' problem/

no television women in n outta mi home/

they could care less/

a lil bit of confidence boosting I call tnat/

a lil of this mix w a lil that/

division street Puerto Rican mamis/

taking shots twerking to Daddy Yankee/

yelling spank me at least I think it was in Spanish/

my panic attacks started to vanish/

the old me I surely abandon/

but I’ll never forget how I ended up still standing/

didn’t plan this I was s'posed to hang years ago/

now I walk around London in trench coats/

Barcelona to see Messi you seem ready/

to subscribe to mi get right life setty/

Nights in the capital city of mi country/

sometimes I don't feel i'm really awake/

somebody punch me

Nights in the capital city of mi country/

sometimes I don't feel i'm really awake/

somebody punch me

Hear Feel Remember

Blood sweat tears could never vanquish fear/

coming up on the rear knee deep still steer/

navigating a swamp the pomp of the purveyors is crazy/

everyone uniform is this hip hop or the navy/

sometimes I feel depressed I just throw on Amy/

maybe the stress is overwhelming maybe just maybe/

I need to get a grip like a copper w his night stick/

outta turn you should see what comes from mi lips

it’s a lil more than chapstick/

You will hear, feel, remember me

I had a year surrounded by death now I’m left wondering steps/

another x marks the spot yo of see you at the crossroads/

this ain’t a Bone Thugs song there’s no Harmony/

just calamity someone throwing harm at me/

the universe is collapsing I’m tryna hold it up/

expectations are the bitch always showing up/

always hoeing up/

always tryna fuck me only when the others failed/

now she remembered my face thinly veiled/

back when I was sickly n skinny as a rail/

never thought I live to tell this tale/

everyone pissed I didn’t run w mi legs outside mi tail/

put your hands on it read this braille/

I physically told you I will not bail/

You will hear, feel, remember me
