!LLumiN@TE - “Grand Rising”
[Emcee(s): !LLumiN@TE]
[Producer(s): H2 (AKA DJH2 / Halo) {Original Instrumental from H2 - “Grand Rising”}]

[Hook: !LLumiN@TE]
Uh! Grand rising, grand biscuits
Magic-wand-waving Grand Wizards. If you my man
A hundred grand and a gram missing
I got 99 problems—what’s the damn difference? Listen

[Verse 1: !LLumiN@TE]
On my unborn grandkids, you know a nigga
Grown when a band is a bandage and the band keeps
Playing when you’re on the Titanic and your home network
Can’t handle the bandwidth. Life’s a damn bitch
Still love her though. Raw sex, pulling off
The rubber slow. Rub-a-dub-dub, that’s a dry rub
On the roast. Smells like burnt toast
You know I got a serious stroke, periods broke like
The levies, flow on the mic kind of heavy
Got enough sauce for the spaghetti. Red Hot
Chili Peppеr, all the water “Under thе Bridge,” I forgive
Niggas for wanting to live. I ain’t mad at ya
I ain’t the mad rapper. Just the mad dapper
Dapper Dan Rather, “Shimmy Shimmy Ya” like
A Kappa. Somebody tell Uzi that I’m fatter
Vanilla extract in a batter. I ain’t playing
Patty Cake. I mean, how many patty pies can
Daddy bake? Mad I gotta save a slice for Sallie Mae
May the odds ever be forever in your favor
Forever and a whole day later. Day-to-day
Day traders. Daylight come for slave labor
Labor Day labor pains, getting paid straight-up

[Hook: !LLumiN@TE]
Uh! Grand rising, Grand Canyon
Grandfather clock, grandstanding

[Verse 2: !LLumiN@TE]
You lucky
If you got grandparents. Shit is Operation:
Grand Clearance, it’s clandestine, magazine
Glam essence, 120, playing lessons from the
Ancestors, fam blessings, hand-to-hand
Hand gestures, jam sessions, children asking
Damn questions, watching cartoons and wrestling

[Hook: !LLumiN@TE]
Uh! Grand rising, Grand Central
Freemasons at the Grand Temple

[Verse 3: !LLumiN@TE]
Uh!
All praises to the audacious
All-seeing eye, all patient, call, waiting for the
Hookup. Cook up salt fish. It’s crooked how the
Poor get rewarded with more risk. Fried dumpling
Daily bread. Top of the morning, getting daily head
Taking diabetic daily meds, sugar-free
Jelly spread. Crown jewel got a heavy head
You got a headache from the Reggie Reg

[Outro: !LLumiN@TE]
Grand rising! (Grand rising!)
Grand rising! (Grand rising!)
Grand rising! (Grand rising!)
Grand rising! (Grand rising!)
