VERSE ONE
sitting on the tram dirt broke like a motherfucker
paranoid that the lady next to me's undercover 
done a runner just the other week from the tram cops.  
i ain’t running anymore more bruv i got knees like my grand pops 

back in the day i had a little hops
then i got old and my shot got cold when that whiskey got 
cool, that was round the time i cooled off too
i went from ‘you know who’ into a ‘who are you?’

well i’m a lazy ass / motivated as fuck 
creative, that couldn’t give a nut what he’s labelled as
take me as just a disobedient maniac
the media paint me as on TV to make the adds 

sell if you like or you could take a tab
and then realise you’re just a naked animal 
like i am too just another ape in drag
80s smack baby that crazy cat lady had. 

homosapien. that lady that 
made ‘Bag Lady’ fan. playing gap band 
loud like you play The Clash, till i make the neighbours mad
making  tracks till the day I lay in ash. save all that

making wack shit for Baby Bash. 
i don’t need to chase the cash in no rat race. fuck the latest fad
don’t rock roshes, never rated breaking bad
i just want a good paper back when i take a crap. 

i’m okay with that. shux. i get paid to rap
and i never made it but at least i'm not making adds
so i ride that damn tram like a trans am 
feeling like a billionaire on band camp. bam bam 

bigelow. i spit that goku shit. their piccolo. 
pick a flow to kick and go with it with no video.  
and if it don't do it for you i give a fuck this isn't no 
audition so if you don't wanna listen then don't listen bro. 

but any whoooo… twenty two brews down
and now i'm ready to get into a new style 
i'm in a henny mood but remmy's cool, whatever dude
get me any booze. anybody got any loot? 10 to 2.

Is it ever too late to get a new attitude on life? 
or am i already screwed?
spent a few too many afternoons in my room 
stressing bout impending doom bending spoons

time to end the bull and do something commendable 
spent too much time pretending to, John Lennon knew
i'm going to bed, wake me up when the rent is due 
matter fact, wake me up at the end of june. then i’ll do 

the dishes. bitches.  
taking pictures of themselves blowing kisses. fuck is this?

VERSE TWO
when I got nowhere to go I just pick a flow and roll with it 
stoned and just got off the boat and I'm stoked with it 
spending time penning rhymes getting by only cause 
I don't give fuck bout being broke it makes no difference  

to me what so ever if I'm hungry then I'll go get it
steal a couple loafs still I'm happy when there's no dinner 
got a couple things going on so the dope dealings
left up to the bros selling blow case the hoes sniff it

no critics saying shit I don't already no 
bitter old bitches open your mouth and put my whole dick in
no gimmicks only case I ain't bout the hoe shit and
even if nobody notice that you don't know shit

I see it cause it's openly obvious you don't really know how to make a..
nah got no time to focus on dumb shit 
cause I'm too busy working on my own shit
my old shit is old better get somewhere to go quick 

cause only prolific make it to the podium
and I'm trying to get to where the bro is and
no distance is enough to make a difference
when i get to going this is just another moment to hold better roll with it.


Bending Spoons

VERSE ONE
sunny day and it ain’t even summer hey
i guess i really can’t complain, i just get up and start again
and thank the god i don’t believe in  for the vegetables i’m stealing 
from the supermarket what a bargain i can’t fight the feeling

wanna WOO like i’m rick flair sit here and sip beer
even though I’ve had a shit year i’m yelling shit yeaaah
I’m happy to be depressed go ahead of repossess 
everything i have cause i’ve had even less. and we the best

losers that you never seen i fail like like a champion. 
the king of being broke. fuck your jays. man i’m happy in my 
tracks with the slippers. i don’t want no six figures
i just want to split slithers. and die like Sid Vicious

maybe this is just a game. and if it is i’m gonna play 
don’t want the fame. don’t want no money i’m like shit i’m on a plane
i’m going somewhere. even if it ain’t no where. 
even tho i got no hair. i know there’s no need for no tear

i don’t care about your lo gear. don’t care about your old pair. 
don’t care if your homo. queer. or bi. cause i got no fear. we’re both weird. 
and oh yeah. i gotta send a shout out to the homies
that’s lucky lance and tony. michael corleone, joely. 

hold me down when i’m down hold me up when i’m on uppers
at the ruggas making ruckus. when i call you fuckers bruv it’s cause 
i mean it. don’t wanna be no rat up in a race
proud to be that YGB like it was tatted on my face. say what? 

VERSE TWO
It's a sunny day indeed blaze the weed play a beat 
super stoney-oney so I don't care what you saying to me
haters Down we don't play around 
if you claim to be the baddest then someone will come and lay you down 

don't know how to manage being manic let me loose don't panic
how bad could it get I got a bag full of shit
I shouldn't have none of this but guess I'm at it again
about to brown bag some Bombay and bang RES until I’m on one

paranoid and so I had my phone cut
only fuck with the bolsis who know me the rest I don't trust
trying to get where I'm going my homies just told me don't rush
low even when I'm high case I got no more serotonin 

floating around my brain rain pouring hard as ever
even if it could be great i wouldn't change it what so ever
I'm mean what would that say c'mon keep it togeather
better be happy to be here lot of people gone forever

better get up while you can Pab said don't be a bitch
that's my mans got you back if you sober or you twisted
and that goes for everybody who down with the click
YGBOPMGHD them bad kids

playing up again, up against the wall untill it's over 
got no love for any of you overrated stoners
should roll up on your CD and then use it as a coster
and leg drop the table off the ropes like Hulk hogan

in 87 holla at the homies for a lazy session
hit the tepid baths for spa then go make a record
just another day in hell I ain't gonna play it down
you know what it is YGB don't play around say what

Greetings once again. 
Today I want to bring you something just a little bit different from the normal boombap flavors I often lick. 
I'll let you decide the particulars of this flavor for yourself. This was a collaborative project in a new spirit, one that is much more patient, but that which does yield a great reward. I've been practicing more and more what one could call 'trust'. And trying to involve others more in different steps of the process as a whole. This song is essentially the first of it's kind from me. Much love to Zudo(a Shogun Beatcat)for the patience and hard work ! The instru was a favorite as soon as i heard it, with his hard work, the vision became reality. I originally wrote the lyrics in December 2014, so glad to see it given life. 

The song itself, as the definition of the word suggests, is about a achieving a particular measure of success given ones current circumstances and resources. 
The world is filled with talent, and many people seem to have found access in ways others have yet to figure out to the secrets of creativity and productivity. I'm not so sure myself there is a secret. But what I do recognize is that there is limitation, and the issue stems from our individual interpretation of what exactly the issue is. 

And example would be I used to wait for 'inspiration' before I wanted to write, or record something. And there were times were the wait was long. In short - 
You have to invite the muse inside, you cannot wait for her to to come knocking. 

We often have all that we need to accomplish that which we want, but the mind can hold us back a great deal, with aspirations, misinterpretations and quite simply a lack of realistic expectations. This songs lyrics embody the self refinement / betterment cycle.

INTRO 
I WANT TO UNDERGO, 
CONSCIOUS GROWTH,
SEEK LIKE-MINDED-FOLKS- 
PHENOMENAL,YET STILL HONORABLE
SOMEPLACE IN THIS LIFE - 

VERSE
I TAKE SMALL STEPS IN MY STRIDE, SLOWING DOWN THE FAST LIFE,
READ BETWEEN THE LINES, PEEPING DETAILS WITH MY EYES -
I SEEK TO FIND, THE UNSEEN,  
THAT'S ALREADY VISIBLE, IN THE SCENE,
ONE JUST TUNE THE SENSES KEEN, &REALLY SEE, OPEN UP, 
THE LINE THAT WAS CUT, WAS JUST ONE OF MANY UNDONE. 
COMPOSED CONNECTION, 
//
WAY I KNOW-
RHYME GROWN, FROM REFLECTION-OF THE SOUL.
IN EVERYDAY THAT I GROW. 
IM PEEPING IT CLOSE,
THE TIME AS IT GOES, &MOLDING MY FLOW, TAKING CONTROL, 
MAKING IT SO, 
IT'S ON A ROLL, &PLAYS A ROLE, 
TO INNERGROWTH, 
&BEHOLD, 
TO THOSE,
WHO, WHEN I UPLOAD, THEY REALLY LISTEN, 
TO WHAT I KICKING, 
WITHIN THE RHYTHM. 

WORKING HOOK @1:20 
I WANT TO FLOW OPTIMAL --- X2
UNSTOPPABLE, 
FOR I, I'M RESPONSIBLE - IN THIS LIFE.  OOOH YES I AM, ALRIGHT... 

I WANT A CONSTANT GROWTH
TO TOPPLE THOSE-- OBSTACLES, 
THAT I, FACE IN THIS LIFE. 


 VERSE
THE RHYTHMIC WORD I GENERATE, 
RHYMES STYLE REGENERATES- MENTALLY I GO AGAINST THE GRAIN,-
RENDERING A FRAME, MENTAL IMAGE PORTRAYED, 
ONE CANNOT HESITATE, THROUGH DEFENSE I PENETRATE, 
THE WAY THE LINE ARRANGED, MY ENERGY, I ENERVATE, LYRICALLY, 
CREATED FROM THE HEART I DEDICATE, 
LET IT SCINTILLATE 
SHINOBISTYLE WAYS,
// 
I COEXIST WITH CHIVALRY, NOT INIQUITY, 
I SIPHONED SOLILOQUY THROUGH MY RHYME-DISTILLERY.  
YO, SO PEEP IT OUT, 
THE WAY I RING IT OUT, I RELINQUISH, 
THEM JUICY SOUNDS- 
WITH THE SIMPLE WAY THAT I PRONOUNCE, A COMMON NOUN, 
IT MIGHT ASTOUND, THE FLOW THAT I FOUND,  
I RIDE & LET IT BOUNCE, 
TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS, WHEN MY THOUGHTS PIERCE THE CLOUDS.

From Nike, the world's leading sports brand, comes an exclusive release by De La Soul, one of the most influential hip hop bands of the last two decades. Commemorating the 20th Anniversary of 3 Feet High and Rising, De La Soul’s groundbreaking debut record, ARE YOU IN?: Nike+ Original Run is the groups’ first-released original material in five-years. The record is only available through iTunes, and is part of a continuing series of releases through the "Nike+ Sport Music" section of the store.

With additional production by Chicago-based DJ/Production-duo Flosstradamus, ARE YOU IN?: Nike+ Original Run is a unique album written specifically for runners, but its allure extends to all music fans. Posdnuos of De La Soul explains, “When we first heard about this project we were psyched on the challenge. We pride ourselves on being able to get bodies moving, so it was cool to do it with a specific goal in mind – giving runners the sonic fuel to clock some miles.”
The release also features cover artwork by famed designer Joe Buckingham.
