In Case I Lose Myself in the Crowd

[Intro]
Yeah, word
Yeah, word

[Verse 1: Cavalier]
You done fucked up, I’m home now
The belt self-tightens, the L rollin’ itself
Lightin’ like velvet – it felt right
Too many nights hellbent – motel life
That old scent of unknown
It’s somethin’ how my code-switches
Somethin’ ‘bout my show scored different, my food thought heavy
Fork lifted, cliché, cat-callin’ life a bitch, to address
Form-fitted, winter storm, inner core
But hear me comin’ at the door, intercom
Sinners can’t sing along
Pentecost, they make no sense
How sweet the cold, even with the holes it feel complete
If its too hot Escovitch it’s only ’cause I forgot I got
Bigger fish to free, mystery school in between
Fist full of, “ooh, I wish”’es
Best of the crop of the cream
But it’s chess not checkers
They checked 2Pac, our Bishop
You on the block or the box
Who got watch on the queen
Not keeping watch for the throne
If we can’t spot what it means
We bring no peace to the home

[Verse 2: Quelle Chris]
Why would not you be true?
Seen crews fall like taco, over ground beef
Stay king of the apostles that surround you
Miss me with all that bullshit, that’s my word
Say the Zim Zala Bim, it’s the crème de la crop
Valley highs, through valleys low, never stopped
Man alive, ghost from the past jumps in the present
The milli’s what seals the deal, the toaster [?]
So hold the words you got, if it ain’t food for thought
I’m hungry and bent, and will be til end of days
Let’s hope that the curtain call is startin’ to the
End of page, stage left, scene gone wrong
Stage right, won't leave my brain, I need a change of set and cast and my character, cast a conductor
A twist of fate for the friendly, or just a break from the cluster
I guess it’s only fam on my phone
No other place to call home
If I can’t find peace of mind, then put a piece to my dome

(Yeah, we been here before
Yo, yeah, we been here before, remember?
Remember?)

[Chorus: Quelle Chris]
So we keep it one-hundred, one stack
One million, I’ve been crawling, I’ve been climbing
Out here trying to make a killing
The sunrise ain’t always sunny
I ain’t foolin’ myself
I’ve been down, still I’m proud
I am full of myself
I am we
We are god
I am dirt
I am stars
C’est la vie
Say Ashe
Say alhamdulillah
All my life

[Hook]
I wrote this down
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
Lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd

[Verse 3: Denmark Vessey]
Hey, word
Hey, yo
Hey, yo
[?]
Shawty, come my way
Bow-legged, I toss on the turn
Flint water to André
Yeah, yeah, and we be
In the age of agua
But this agua here for chocolate
Hottest all the mother-fathers
Can I
Walk a overcast someday?
Can I
Expire from all of these sunrays?
I’m colonizin’, can’t complain
I thought a lot to my young days
Move furniture for no fung shui
Hey, fuck all that fist we want gunplay
[?]
This is the [?] shoot for the stars
[?] what you lookin’ for, [?] or car, nigga

[Verse 4: Goose]
Bouncer stuck me in drools
Disregarded the rules
You can probably credit it
To my rap etiquette
I grew up in the motor
Almost always un-sober
It was Goose mixed with juice
Or Hennessy filled with soda
Wasted Youth was the crew
Brotherhood was the glue
I was taught, “never lie”
Cheat or steal, never cry
Sleep or squeal on your brethren
Was my everyday lesson
Went through everyday stresses
All through my adolescence, uh

[Chorus: Goose]
So we keep it one-hundred, one stack
One million, I’ve been crawling, I’ve been crying
I’ve been tryin’ make a killing
The sunrise ain’t always sunny
I ain’t foolin’ myself
I’ve been down, still I’m proud
I am full of myself
I am weak
We are god
I am dirt
I am stars
C’est la vie
Say I say
Say alhamdulillah
All my life

In case I lost myself in the crowd
In case I lost myself in the crowd
