Long Summer 01:20

Sun rise to sun down Believe in yourself don't come down Look at your haters like what now? What you got to say now? Told y'all what happens What goes up Doesn't have to come down If you're persistent enough To be able to go 100 rounds It's not a skill, it's a lifestyle Some were born with it Some need convincing to let loose And take off now You got it in you That fire in you Why you holding back Anxiousness you holding in Just let it out to counter that Spit some facts Let no one ever tell you differently Be the boss and make decisions On a pedestal a sight to see Wooh Criticize all you want I left my mark already Go and Google my name Still leaving a mark when ready A human being on earth But a tiger at heart Solitary leadership, man Don't make me start This is easy for me Making 50 songs a day Writing, engineering, and I'm mixing It's a piece of cake Tell Hollywood watch out Tell Hollywood move over I got a lot of stuff that's on my mind I can't pass over It's a long summer

Be Thankful 01:49

As a writer I write a lot of things And record a lot of people on this mic But sometimes But a lot of times I need to remind myself Not to be a hypocrite And just And just Be thankful for the things you have now All that giving that you're doing in the present Will come back around Tell your demons they can wait awhile Show 'em something Show them that your stronger in the moment You ain't budging none You may feel a lot of hurt Lot of pain, lot of guilt Longer days of seeing grays Stuck in rain All the same broken records playing games Listen to me when I tell you Stand up on you're own two feet Everything gets brighter with no cliche I'm doing me so do you Not worried 'bout what he say Spoke to the universe for support I'm not allowing any leeway this time Teenager from Ohio trying his luck For peat sake I grind Feels like when you start achieving People go blind Cuz you stepped out the box With the category they aligned for you Don't just give me one label unless it's greatness But I got to be thankful So I thank you For the good times and the bad The good times show you What the future has in store While the bad times show you How far you've come So you got to be thankful That's why I'm thankful

Keep Your Head High 02:50

Yeah yeah I been feeling mixed Okay I been feeling mixed emotions lately I admit Becoming more decisive In what I omit Never had these thoughts Never had it Never had to run Always had to choose business over having fun As a kid I had to grow up fast now Always bothered by why other kids would leave me out I had to speak up all the time so they hear me out Screaming at the top of my lungs Like can you hear me now Get on the bus leaving school sad Finally home but mom's at work Now I'm getting mad Taught myself how to be lonely in my own space Now I'm older and I'm stuck in my own space Got the phone calling mom while she busy now Answers it with limited time we can talk it out Start to talk about my day and how it went about But I can't explain it and she got to go Leaving now To grandma's house I go She's just down the hill To talk about my emotions when I need to spill Mediator of the family who will keep it real Sad and angry at the same time But she know the deal Open the door smelling food from the kitchen room Granny on the couch watching my every move Run into her arms, cry my eyes out She don't why But she says she understands and to Keep my head held high Keep your head high Leaving granny's house I'm headed back home now Mom is there off of work so we can talk it out She's always making time when she doesn't have it at all We get right to it Talk for hours and we never stall We cry, we laugh, we get mad But we always rekindle Knowing family is precious and can never dwindle She taught me honesty and just to never lie She says my future is bright and to Keep my head held high So Imma keep my head held high Yeah For anyone who went through a Similar life as I did I understand and I got you And I'm not the type of person To just say stuff to win you over Whatever you're struggling with Financially, emotionally, physically, mentally Everybody is human And we all go through it at some point You got to learn to suck it up sometimes And just keep your head high

See What I See 01:49

Wait, is that LyricalGenes? Check, check Alright I see people taken advantage of everyday in silence I said it once, I say again I will not be silenced False promises are given; Therefore, all stay silent But with nothing given Lost trust the response is violent Or can be Entrusted thieves not resort to plan B Hustle to stay alive by any means necessary They feel that no ones listening So now they become carefree Eye for an eye retaliation with no inquiry Look in their life and see what they see You're empathy speaks volumes On what you can see And what you have seen And you're turning green Eye for an eye retaliation with no inquiry Look in their life and see what they see You're empathy speaks volumes On what you can see And what you have seen And I see you turning green Let's go
