[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
I pray that I stay inspired
Young niggas rappin' like they retired
Put in that work like I'm 'fraid to get fired
I'm on my job, my purpose higher
I need a office
So many politics, I had to set up a caucus
Hit up the trial
Like death is a given but now we 'bout bein' alive
This is a vibe (Vibe), somethin' to ride
Leave the bullshit to the side, like it's a hype man
Life is a stage, my G-O-D is the lightnin' (Yeah)
I know you see me (See me), they wanna be me
Somebody get 'em a genie
When I was teeny
Focused on making my pocks grow like a fiendy
Never was easy
Tired of Oodle's-N-Noodles, I need that linguini
So I been grindin', lost track of the timin'
I'm addicted to rhymin', ain't it ironic?
Can't stop, won't stop, never that
Destruct tracks like pyramids
I'm just tryin' bring the mecca back, so, yeah
My whole shit is poetry in motion
If we ever was on the same page, you seen the pen, strokin'
Looking for Stroseph? I'm 'prolly on the East
Coastin', mind and money elopin'
My vocabulary's enough to have her wetter than the ocean
And I'm tired of this wave shit
And some niggas die to ride, like a slave ship
Back to the basics
I can't get jiggy with they joints, somebody laced it
My style is like a brake, from the Matrix
Gotta anticipate shit constantly
Loner, some people bother me
You could spot 'em
When you say smart shit, then they react awkwardly
That's when I know I'm in the wrong buildin'
I put in work like I got children
Go off the feelin'
I often search for something greater, to know success
Niggas trash
Industry wonderin', they don't know what's next
Stro the best
My cuts infectious like the open flesh
Pull a rapper card like I seen 'em in my Rolodex
[Bridge]
I'm motivated by pictures of mansions
Holy vibes, but nowadays, niggas be on they Marilyn Manson
I'm thinkin' expansion
They see me on stage, they thinkin' Fred Hampton
My flow is commandin'
Gotta do what I do 'til we got understandin'
Yea-
I'm motivated by pictures of mansions
Want a spot in the Hamptons
And a beautiful thing in the livin' room dancin'
Shorty say that I'm handsome
But I gotta do better with my response time
In the studio, makin' shit knock
Don't save hoes, save hip-hop (Ayy, ayy)
[Verse 2]
I got it, okay (Okay)
True beat (True beat), like bae (Like bae)
They cool (They cool), they dope, but this? (this?)
Grade A (Swish)
I'm on the go (On the go), touch down (Touch down)
No time (No time) to play (Not at all)
I'm on the go (On the go), touchdown (Touchdown)
That's Tom (That's Tom) Brady (Haha)
Niggas know (Niggas know)
When they see (When they see) Young Stro (Young Stro)
The Emcee (That's me), he different (He different)
He iller (He iller), no limits (No limits)
P. Miller (P. Miller)
Let's get it (Let's get it), let's do it (Let's do it)
Yo damn (Uh), he cuter (He cuter)
And I send that shit out to the planet
Stro in his bag, I know they can't stand it
Yeah, yeah
