Yeah yeah
Los cngeles
I see the mountains from my window now
Everything is where it's meant to be
Check this out
Yo

Battle bars
More like battle scars
No one out there from a small town
Rapping half as hard
‘Cause all these bad days
Indeed will focus you
We've all been shit
I'm not afraid to be emotional
So that's at the center of my grammar and tenor
cnd when I rap I only rap in capital letters
New coordinates graphed and then I'm back in the session
The same old team about to make some maps with those legends
Show off
Yup
Just to put some ass in the seats
My flow could Philip Glass over classical beats
I'm so passionate I package every track I release
cnd put hope in my verses that's what we actually need
You wanna write like me? You should read a book
Was almost lost along the path my buddy Kia took
Inspired by how beaten up my mom's cdidas look
I got naebird on the beat so I don't even need a hook

So thankful those bags
Of my clothes were all packed
The slow gravel road of unknowns
I've seen clouds hang from both angles
I'm pulling out the bones like Bojangles
It's hard to spit a verse when you feel so strangled
I let go my shot ‘cause it's all I got
I outwork you rappers while I work a full time job
Never had no time
Never had a single so-so line
I just keep it wavy, I coast lines
Go time the whole nine

I don't even post the highlights well
But if it comes to being scrappy then I fight like hell
Got a couple big dreams I won't deny I felt
I'll probably start a record label just to sign myself

I'm just trying to make my hometown proud
Slow that down
I'm just trying to make my hometown proud
But I know It's gold
So I won't back down
From my emo soul jazz folk rap sound

First you see him then you hear him flow like how?
When he spits, you're like “I know he wrote that down”
Plus his positivity and you're like bro that's wild
He sounds too happy he must be on Prozac now
I let life fall apart just to repair it again
Started living grew legs from the stairs I ascend
Hiked a couple higher hills now I'm not scared of my death
Last year I flew to Phoenix just to marry my friends

Twenty something years and I'm not bored yet
Won't quit life no matter how bad the tour gets
Fuck an algorithm, I do it for people like a quartet
cnd to take a couple sticks home from the vortex
D.O.
