wally's notes: This song was written over the course of about a week, it's a bit of an update on my state of affairs, and touches on getting caught up in the idea of achieving something as opposed to actually enjoying the processes that get you there.

(Chorus)

I've been floating
Kinda got an idea of a direction
But somedays I float through
and don't know where I'm headed

Floating
Sometimes I take steps
Taking deep breaths
Yo I'm trying to stay even headed

(Verse 1)

Yo 2 0 18
You know great things
are coming
One day at a time
One day at a time

I know that I've said things
and haven't necessarily
done them well
Thats all behind
and its coming in time

Rhyme by rhyme, I've been making it mine
I just got a way with words that they cannot define
When I get on the mic I just let out my vibes
And the room go boom like its 1999

I had a couple talks with the person inside
We had a conversation about striving to fly
I said to myself "wally, its been so hard why?"
my mind replied
"I've been overwhelmed and its been killing my high"

I took a step back and realized
Its time for a change, cause the way
I've been approaching my days
Has kept me low when my intentions to rise
So I've been working on the scenes from behind
So you'll see a better me when the curtains arise
I want to be to a better individual, learn to be wise
See a better vision through these oft blurried eyes
Flow free feeling ease 
instead of constantly tried
Take days with grace
rather than complication of mind
This has been my the short of my plight
I've been floating with a direction in mind
But sometimes the stress takes me over and all of a sudden
I'm feeling blinded

(Chorus)

I've been floating
Kinda got an idea of a direction
But somedays I float through
and don't know where I'm headed

Floating
Sometimes I take steps
Taking deep breaths
Yo I'm trying to stay even headed

(Verse 2)

Its been a while since I've had fun with my life
I've been so caught in the fantasy of reaching the heights
That the candle's just been melting as the lights burning bright
Overthinking these days and isolated at night 
Goals have left me blind to the insight

that a goal is just a step on the spectrum of
what we do in repetition and if we're good at it along with diligent
we get recognition and everything that comes with it

But my perceptions been different

I used to and sometimes still do look at goals as the achievement
that will give me euphoria and stop me from feeling anxious
and stop me from feeling sadness and make my life perfect
at every avenue

What I mean is the goals and the means
Confusing the two, can cause some pops in the seams
Falling into false portraits of reality
Instead of focusing on the brush stroke that paints the painting
Its the difference between thinking about planting
and actually planting the seed to get the fruits you seek
This is something that took me way too long to see
Until Logic introduced me to Alan Watts, who taught it to me
Now in my headphones I got the Tao Te Ching
I've been taking steps to let go and just sail the sea
And as I float through, what do the lookers from the bay see?
just a dope emcee
floating

(Chorus)

I've been floating
Kinda got an idea of a direction
But somedays I float through
and don't know where I'm headed

Floating
Sometimes I take steps
Taking deep breaths
Yo I'm trying to stay even headed

Floatin

Track Produced by Genx Beats (genxbeats.com)

Living at home working minimum wage shit
I work the late shift by day
and by night at the batcave make hits
Skate over the bass hits and verbally tre flip
I've been patient as fuck trying to create the right combinations
for the next banger from the basement I display for
my accquaintances
late trips home at days end to accompany of the pavement
Gotta make y'all great shit for your tape deck to play 
in rotation so you can look to your friend and say "No way wally made this?"
Damn straight I'm aiming for no less than the highest placement
I'm hungry as fuck and yet so satiating
state amazing, lately training
daily to break previously placed limitations that have
been negating me from taking steps
New phase begins I'm looking towards better days ahead
Going hard as fuck until my name gets recognition and respect
Blood tears and sweat, excuses gone with the wind
Gonna get my slice of bread, grinding harder with every breath

We go hard as fuck in this
Grinding til we get what we came for
Watch me get 
Coming straight for the neck

Levelled up from the last tape
Onto to next from my last stage
Begone with dwelling I now train
To take the belt and renowned acclaim
Dark horse, name I proudly claim
Wrong avenue reroute the way
Boutta do what it takes to make a stake
and break the gates to blow away
bitchmade  expectation
scrape the plate and wave
while stadium exclaim he great
makes the wave
nominates him hall of fame player
who saved the game
dedicated a date to celebrate
him what a spectacular occasion
Those around have no choice but to  congratulate him
Apologize for digressin I guess I just possess an obsession
with flexing my paintbrush of dialect and rhyme intelligence
infatuated with just the right embellishments
Flow tighter than anaheims finest with denying selfie sticks
wordy like theodor geisel, alter identity sick 
When he a get a pen he get dirty like dan and let it rip
getting everything in order so nobody can tell him shit
This is controlled chaos, behold the citys hidden gem

We go hard as fuck in this
Grinding til we get what we came for
Watch me get 
Coming straight for the neck

we go hard as fuck

(song 4/100)
The fourth song in my playlist of 100 original songs!

Chorus

Yeah I know I can give them what they need
Ever since I was a kid, I always fucking believed
I would be the one, and I still believe that now

Yeah I know I can give them what they need
and everything that they say it doesn't really get to me
I will be the one, and I still believe that now

Verse 1

Young man with a trick up his sleeve
Coming harder than they ever could have conceived
Made a claim he'd make it and that's a claim he plans to keep
Waking everybody up who's currently asleep 
on him
Yo when my beat drops, I'm fucking beatin on em
Don't need help from anyone, appreciate it but we got it
Yeezy told me go head and switch the style up and if they hate then let em hate and watch it fuckin pile up

Chorus

Chorus

Yeah I know that I can give them what they need
Ever since I was a kid, I always fucking believed
I would be the one, and I still believe that now

Yeah I know I can give them with need
And everything that they say it doesn't really get to me
I will be the one, and I still believe that now

Verse 2

The fucks that I used to give are out the window
Got myself a vision but Imma change the tempo
What I been doing before I'm about to outdo it tenfold
Got some people buzzing, gimme time and I'll get myself way more
Emcee at heart bars from the start I harp on how far I'm gonna take it with a harty har
Had a lot of negativity weighing on me but I gotta let it go if I'm really gonna rise as a fucking star
I'm looking up and I can see the sky
I just gotta give everyone the juice so they can realize
That I fucking believe in the dream can you see it in my eyes
Practice is over its time to fucking rise
up in this bitch right now

I've always loved music and producing music has always been a personal desire. I love EDM, especially House, and singer-songwriter genres. Grew up on Nirvana, punk rock, and alternative rock. I find those genres still influence my taste in music, both creating and listening.
