TREE OF LIFE

[Chorus: Sample]
Climbin' up the tree of life
One day you will see
That your best bet
Mm, was really me

[Verse 1: Kwame Adu]
Hip-Hop, alchemy, brainchild
Might as well stay a while, plans have been laid out
Rather be laid on, she love me like Faizon
Play with her keyboard, she singin' amazing songs
Don't wanna take too long, the way I been travelin'
You checkin' my footprint, find what the pattern is
Hands on my feet, I been climbin' trees
Banana clips for monkey business if it comes to me
I'm goin' Diddy, less P, more DK, run a track like a relay
Ness with all the magic, I ain't shocked to do EK
Mom teachin' Sunday school, I'm PK
Wrote this after Easter, took a break for three days
Guess I feel like Jesus, pastors and the preachers
Fuckin' on some angels, dappin' up the reaper
Don't need a reason, I just need a seed
From Genesis to Revelation, God lives in me
It's Kwame

[Interlude 1: Sample, DyloPillow]
—Of life enragin'
Oh Lord, won't You stand by me? Won't You— Won't You—
—Going forward, and I'm excited to see what Aviad does
As well as JamalThaDon, they are gonna be great- great artists

[Verse 2: JamalThaDon]
Let me tell the story as I open up my book
The aforementioned glory that's preceded by the hook
Could never catch the fish that's out of stock and out of season
What's cause when not affected? What's logic without reason?
We ponder to tradition, yet we never read the clauses
That's like playin' some instruments without playin' the pauses
Yeah, the Wendy's 4-4 could probably get me through nonsense
When it's 3 AM and I'm already sick, feelin' nauseous
Feelin' sick from the feelin' that [?] does not come often
I feel it in my heart, but also my lungs were coughin'
I been on the brink of death and saw the roots of life
But I didn't cut it down, I grew up and became a vine
So when I carry Earth's weight, it's actually just my spine
But don't be afraid when we runnin' out of time
'Cause the aforementioned glory that was tabled in the lines
Was the glory of JamalThaDon pickin' up this mic

[Chorus: Sample & Young Wabo]
Climbin' up the tree of life (Let me check this)
One day you will see (I don't even know how to—)
That your best bet
Mm, was really me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 3: Young Wabo]
You in the backseat of a Nissan Armada
While me and [?] figure out where [?]
Scuba Doobie on the way to the spot
Chillin' in nature while smokin' this peace
[?] wrappin' my weed, [?] so much where I need
I found my chakra without you, I found because of me
My independence made me question why I bleed
"Return to normalcy"? That wasn't normal to me
I prefer to flow to the pace of the wind and the trees
Because the love is to commit to a fee
How I'm lookin' at you and how you lookin' at me?
How I'm lookin' at rap, ain't worth mentionin' me
