People still convinced that I'm trying to be rapper.
Simply cause I put my thoughts out in a real similar manner.
well I don't care about a flow, shit I barely even rhyme,
I just write speeches, put the dopest music behind.
I understand how other rappers get confused,
They put their art inside rules, they've seen other rappers use.
If you judge me on lyrical skills, my flow or rhyme scheme.
Might as well be yelling run to a wheelchair team
You don't get it, You don't get it.
I'm an artist don't forget it.
I find love in everything, that's the reason I'm gon' get it.
Everyone else been trying to sharpen the skill needed for rap
I been practicing at life, and boy I'm killing that
Been repeating being nice, positivity and light.
putting work in on getting better, better living life
I know they see me getting fans but they don't understand the hype
Don't hate, it'll ruin your chance of seeing what I'm doing right.
We're all equal to each other there's now no more need to fight
So it's love all day from me so I can win by doing right.
Didn't sell my soul to the devil,
his price weren't high enough
But I've been bargaining with god
and now my future's looking up
He told me peace is all that matters, So I crave it from my soul.
He said my music ain't important, but it helps my mind to grow.
He told me gold chains and nice cars can't come 6feet below
He said that time ain't on my side so it's time to change the status quo
Trying to mark my place in time
The point I made a change
My message carries hope,
I hope it ain't been in vein
Trying to spark the mind that change the game
On a search for our new saviour that'll come and turn this water in to champaign
We're all dying from the moment that we're born
So strive to find that happiness that's been hiding there all along.
Look way deeper than the surface, the truth will put you on
This a message filled album, I ain't making any songs
Real recognize real. I know you see me though.
Even if you're unsure of what you see I know you see it though.
Well I know what my x factor is
I'ma utilize it
to make sure that this Diaz Grimm blow
Love letter to the world. return that love to sender
Wanna help us all evolve. I ain't got no hidden agenda.
Working my way to the top never expect nothing given
I'ma take the game, welcome to my new religion
