This is one of 13 tracks off of Lafa's new album, "Not One Thing" dropping 4/20

This track was born out of a lesson on how to use native instruments maschine. I'd had been curious as to what all the hype was about and finally decided to dive in with the homie Dripocal as my teacher. What started as a a couple questions about the basics quickly turned in to a nice little banger! Check out Dropical on soundcloud he has a wide range of dope original sounds.

---- lyrics ----

None other then, uh, L.T.
I exist, Etc. Etc.
Uh yeah,
Just breath
It's just me
Uh, yeah

Bitch I'm back in my zone
You could call it a re-up
Off the fence with my offense so you best get ya D up
I ain't restin' I'm wrestling for the resta the year
and I'm setting the president for the rest of my peers
yeah,
It appears, yall could follow my lead
I aint lead by example you probably all would grow weed
I ain't saying hustling aint goon provide you the means
Just don't let it stifle your vision and swallow your dreams yeah,
Bitch I'm back on my B.I.
Know I'm one in a million I rock the boat like aaliyah
Young bombardier, bout to jet like a lear
Might even have me a beer, cause I just happy to be here, yeah!

I exist, Etc. Etc.
8 years since my last, I matured a bit
But the message in the word aint deterred a bit
I MakeMusic maybe you heard of it
Shonkle is the movement BEAST MOB the click

Optimistic, fuck with me dog
We often just forget how lucky we are
We lost in this shit, the gluttony awe,
I be the rubber ball in I Heart Huckabees, brap!

They say you are what you eat, well then I'm an O…G
Hi J/K L M N O P
I'm not one thing that mean I'm N.O. T
I rap ghetto and I sing in falsetto, please

I dress sloppy
When I get coffee
I like a hotty that like's a hot tea
I need a open floor plan, I'm LAF T
They try ta put me in a box but thats just not me.

ScHoolboy Q - Hands On The Wheel (ft. A$AP Rocky)

The first verse talks about my struggle with medical problems all my life, and also touches on the poverty aspect of my childhood. I receicved a major back surgery at the age of 16 and i have never been right since. I also suffered a spontaneous lung collapse when i was 22 years old.

The 2nd verse was done by the very talented artist, The Bandit. I told him the song was about hardship and pain, and his words are what resulted. I still have not gotten the full story on his verse, but it is amazing artistry nonetheless.

I have recently been getting to know the lovely Miss T-Magic, who came through on the third verse. The story that her words tell is of  a violent struggle that almost cost her her life. 

We hope you enjoy our stories.

((LYRICS))

Z Poorman

If only I had a time machine I would change a lot of things
Travel back and take away this constant pain that makes it hard to breath
The doctors I see promising relief confidently with anti inflammatory 
800mg's of that IBP, 2 of these at a time and it might decrease
Cyclobenzaprine and a Vic might ease the fight so I can sleep tonight,
for the time being
And slip into my mind dreaming to find freedom
Had to adjust my eye sight to the vibrant light gleaming
Yall don't see me around much, but for the right reason
Im clutching a mic bustin, hustling on the side scheming 
Now is it our fault we were poverty stricken?
Brought up in a cold world with less than a pot to piss in
And they got the intention to keep us locked in this prison for all to witness
If your not an official or politician 

Chorus

There's only so much we can take 
Of the pressure on the mind before we break
There's only so much we can hold for so long
That every now and then we all just need to catch a break
And I've been trying for so long to fight and dying inside
But life goes on we all need to catch a break

The Bandit

Are they throwing it to me, I need to catch a break
I tried to clear my mind but I can't get this death the way
I've never been that person fazed by what the rest would say
I've probably been better accept this is my best today, hey
They told me meditate I'm only hearing the med part
I'm hurting those in front of me, most likely got head starts
My life is pixelated like I'm dealing with web art
I don't know how I'm still living in my chest is a dead heart
But I won't let this pain bother me, I'm asking what you got for me
Rock could be as subtle, rebuttal, I need a lobotomy
Possibly a Glock or three to blow away hypocrisy
My life is not a democracy stop telling me what I should be
I can see the breaking point is getting close
I've never had nothing anything is good I suppose
I'm detained in a struggle and pain I should know
They crying from what I expose I'm being modest though, it's getting hotter slow

Repeat Chorus Once

Red Riding Hood AKA T-Magic

Can you hear my Morse code beeping
Or see the tears leaking while I'm bleeding
Feels like I'm daydreaming
But it's the flashback speaking got me tweaking
Cant seem to find a reason like nothing's what it's seeming to be
Lost in the moment I freeze
Clenching my fist like I'm about to seize
Memories like these I don't need everybody sees
But can you even hear my silent screams (ahhh)
Pick yourself up off of the pavement that's what I tell myself
Cuz anit nobody else doing the saving
Safety is all I'm craving, they might as well be smiling waving
I can only tell the story blatantly
Like red is my pigmentation
Near death has got my heart racing
This fight is all in facing
Can you stop watching and waiting
While I can fill me slipping away impatiently

Repeat Chorus Once
