Sleepwalking 03:16
[Hook] I been Flying Over the cuckoo’s Who knew this shit Uh- You don’t Want no problem I can solve ‘em Revolvin’ around the boom we hittin’ I can’t switch it I know of my mission Listen, this shit different Ain’t no gettin’ to me If you wanna go we can leave tonight Believe it, I don’t seek the hype I fight to feed the light that I need [Verse 1] Tell me that you fuckin’ wit ‘em I had to switch it like the shoes Ain’t had no buckets in ‘em, dead ‘em Hilly cut the denim Dead of night, the devil sent ‘em Three, the witching hour I believe the spliff is power I know that the Lord repent ‘em Lately shit been foggy People moving oddly Exceedin’ in my whip We speeding’, weed inside the car seat Just hoping I don’t crash again Hoppin’ out, laughing The sun is back in the static And the sky is goin’ black again Feel like I don’t get one Even though I know The sun run away Opportunity knock-knockin’ But you don’t come out to play Look alive, look alive What’s the price of your fate? Shit, in my mind I can fly If I die ‘fore I wake - listen [Hook] I been Flying Over the cuckoo’s Who knew this shit Uh- You don’t Want no problem I can solve ‘em Revolvin’ around the boom we hittin’ I can’t switch it I know of my mission Listen, this shit different Ain’t no gettin’ to me If you wanna go we can leave tonight Believe it, I don’t seek the hype I fight to feed the light that I need [Verse 2] Shit, ain’t no limit what my eye can see And obviously What you coppin’? Got no option, gridlock for the dream I’m tryna elevate and cruise past it Learnin’ to move traffic Use true tragedy in battle Help the tune clashin’ Reduce madness Who been tryna build the new palace Cool, pursue balance And be ready for the truest challenge Life could throw me I’m Randy Moss’n Handy caution with your heart, won’t break it But I’ve been tossin’ Learning loss of thought And God creation I had this blueprint Since I was like seven, waiting It’s Friday the 13th I feel like Kevin Bacon Breathe a breath to separate it Now I’m back with a flow That’s attractin’ all souls Cash rolls down the lane Bitch, I’m cherrypickin’ Scary spittin’, what I say Hope y’all never miss it ‘X’ marks the spot Get to fuckin’ diggin’ Ay, listen [Hook] I been Flying Over the cuckoo’s Who knew this shit Uh- You don’t Want no problem I can solve ‘em Revolvin’ around the boom we hittin’ I can’t switch it I know of my mission Listen, this shit different Ain’t no gettin’ to me If you wanna go we can leave tonight Believe it, I don’t seek the hype I fight to feed the light that I need

Satori 03:01
[Verse 1] She always help me blow the zip down She ask me to help pull her zip up Knowing imma just wanna get down Nothing but this now Spirits get mixed up, aye Not in that cup that you sippin' Correction this love that you live in like instinct Been tryna find out how the kids think Get back in my ways Like back in the days I know if I shoot they gon' miss me 0 to 50 Careful the barrel is shifty Awfully risky Off of the ten-speed Sand patch and a skid knee Part of the mystery Whole lotta practice Thrown off the atlas Fuck it, I go where my path is Note every action And quote the reaction Buddy a lovey assassin [Pre-hook] Today I fell and was up 'fore I hit the ground This new way, hooray, let's go get some money now I’m feeling like there ain't no one above me now So life could never fuck me out of anything I’m bugging out [Hook] I needed this I seen the ship coming The demons slip Increasing up the oven So we can live and see some kids in love with The fact that you can back it up, or something Oh baby You really done blown my mind In the space where there ain't no time In a time where there ain't no space She winding [Verse 2] Ain't no time for the timeless A penny on your mind That depend on what's inside And i digest Every time stretch and it slide, for forever You remember who sell you the yellow line? How they own road better than whats sittin in your mind? Now you trippin' You slip into never mind I been searching for skrilla to set aside Never settling heading for what is mine Thats a drop top Something or other More love Bread broke w my brothers I ain't miss a fucking note When i tongue her Like lala Smoking on lala I cannot sleep In a dream i wander Half the observer And Half of the happening But back to the main course that the captain get The whole ship eat Bitch till i'm 6 feet Deep in the mix 1st overall pick Don't miss me If you do Imma be cool Just writing my history Not on a big screen He stay in seclusion And build the illusion Keep swimming like swim team Reach for the inseam, lord Its insane how she throw it like a 4 seam And ill be honest its alot of shit i foreseen But it was blurry through the porch screen You ain't tryna play? Up off the court please [Hook] I needed this I seen the ship coming The demons slip Increasing up the oven So we can live and see some kids in love with The fact that you can back it up, or something Oh baby You really done blown my mind In the space where there ain't no time In a time where there ain't no space She winding I needed this I seen the ship coming The demons slip Increasing up the oven So we can live and see some kids in love with The fact that you can back it up, or something Oh baby You really done blown my mind In the space where there ain't no time In a time where there ain't no space She winding

[Verse 1] Yeah I think it can't be tamed I know it can be broken Begin to feel insane but fuck it I'm in the open Losing my train of thought Yeah we fought to keep it close And, my heart jumped into my throat And then i started chocking Tell me why debris falling Shivering got my teeth brawling Thinking thats my dream calling Wonder what it mean? And what i'm thinking got me free falling I don't wanna preach darling, no Yeah i just keep these scenes honest, aye Im delivering this dream harvest Baby never seen flawless Rhythm in this weak market aye [Pre-hook] I don't wanna talk about it Let me walk it out Baby you just wanna talk about it Whats to talk about [Hook] Just let me soak up the clouds I got room for the rain now Grew through all the hate That never flew in my brain now I could say my prayers Still nobody safe now Swerving, bitch I'm hogging this lane now Im feeling like we playing in traffic These Games orderly madness Too true [Verse 2] Okay Time and time again I find my mind is in A climate which I ain't approve Change and move I ain't tryna climb again Not today Ain't that kind A bitch Shit 5's can mix So gone and fly away Stay out my mind today Im thinking good Living better Tryna press em' in a kinder way If you got some time today Then keep me in your mind today Shit i guess what i'm tryna say is Truth is what you tasting Say it twice or save your praying Gotta give it if you take it Shit, now look what you created You know i grow cause of the patience Forbidden fruit Who forever taste it? All my better days i'm never wasting And on my worst we gotta work Just to reverse, fuck what the devil saying [Pre-hook] I don't wanna talk about it Let me walk it out Baby you just wanna talk about it Whats to talk about [Hook] Just let me soak up the clouds I got room for the rain now Grew through all the hate That never flew in my brain now I could say my prayers Still nobody safe now Swerving, bitch I'm hogging this lane now Im feeling like we playing in traffic These Games orderly madness Too true
