How You’ve Been

[Verse 1]

I gave you words so you could sew 'em
You turned 'em to what's now my favorite poem
I took 'em to recite it 'cause it was worth it to show 'em
We conversed 'bout what it means to be happy and then I noticed
You're similar to the lotus of life
Man I should focus, I wanna dig to your soul
I'm inspired by what you speak, 2014
Been a year but this has been my favorite week
We trimmin' the sheep, we getting so deep
The wisdom could seep, between the sample and drums that are weaving the beat
This is knowledge who mix and love with, or whatever you call it
Told me stories that opened me up like my navy blue wallet
I'd be lying if I told you that you didn't write this verse
Rub it if it hurts, I used to think things would only get worse
Check it out, they getting better now, Coogi sweater now, drop-top BM's man I'll ride with you 'till the end
And if you ever need a ear, I got some time willing to spend
It's in the contract, and I don't break the writtens on a friend
I'm as loyal as they come, that's why they love me where I'm from
I try to show 'em there's more power strapping love and not a gun
Truthfully, I know that there's still so much of the truth to see
I'll learn and always share by painting many verses beautifully

[Outro]

One time, put your hands up to the ceiling nigga
I hold it down 'cause, man I got to thank you from within
It's always good to ask you how you've been
It's always good to ask you how you've been
It's always good to ask you how you've been
Always good to ask you how you've been
Always good to ask you how you've been
So how you been?
How you been?
