Verse 1:
This is my message
My message is to keep it real no matter what
Keep my head up no matter the odds
People will talk and say shit
But I'm gonna do what I gotta do
Say what I gotta say
Go where I wanna go
My life is a constant struggle
But the struggles keep life interesting
I'd rather die to live than live to die
I feel like I've lived in hell the last 10 years
The pain, depression, anxiety, the drama
If there is an afterlife, does it get worse or do you find peace?
Does your soul move forward or are you stuck?
We won't know the answers to those questions until our final breath
Until the reaper comes for me, I will try to achieve as much success as possible
Just when I thought my life was meaningless it gets new purpose
The obstacles getting more and more removed
Will I be able to blaze my path into a greater life?
Or will I be walking into a new set of problems?
Only time will tell
Time is the one thing we are bound to
And when our time is up, what will you be leaving behind?
Broken pieces of yourself or a nice solid foundation for the future to build on?
That is ultimately up to you
This has been my message

My Message

Verse 1 (Nonchalantly Zay):
Dream away, off to a higher existence
Got goals and plans, well you gotta stay persistent,
Look, came from hard times, my grandma's was my only assistance
All the funny shit I learned to keep my distance
Everything is mental, learned to vent all my problems on a instrumental
Learned to stop being cold hearted , cuz it doesn't hurt to be sentimental
Check ya prudentials, Family 1st ain't business more then essential,
Focus on ya dreams, reality ain't always as it seems
Came off that "Cash rules everything around me," root of all evil
That's why everything is cream, everything is mean
Check the word play, everything is cream, root of all evil, everything is mean
I been staying in my lane, never holding back, always riding smart, my mental never lacks
Dreaming how life would be if everything was facts , guess we would never know

Verse 2 (Cody Springer):
I always knew I was destined for so much more
Working towards those dreams and putting in the time
Rockin' with my homie Zay to get what's ours
30 years of life and I'm still in the driver's seat
Pedal to the floor until I reach the finish line
You can't care what other people think
That will hold you back every single time
My entire life I've waited for doors to open
Now I'm kicking them off their hinges
Point is you can't wait for things to come to you
You gotta make it happen
Manifestations
Pac once said that reality is wrong. Dreams are for real.
Chase your dreams and don't let them die
Never give up and never give in
I've been doubted all my life
But my drive is something that these fakes don't have
Keep your head up and keep fighting
Rise above all the hate and don't give a motherfuck what they say
I can guide you if you feel lost
Come take a ride with me and I'll show you the way
My hope is that you'll feel inspired and be ready to take on the world
Your dreams are your purpose

Dreams

Dreams (feat. Nonchalantly Zay)

Verse 1 (Cody Springer):

What if I told you I have depression?
Would you point at me and judge me?
Or would you think and say that you can relate
I never asked for this to affect me the way it does
Why are my emotions so unbalanced?
My mental state sometimes be fucking me up
It can be hard to pull me away from that way of thinking
I remember it got so bad I had to take pills and do therapy
It got to the point where If I didn't wake up for tomorrow I'd be fine with that
I just didn't want to exist, didn't want to feel anything again
Felt like I had no purpose in this life I honestly was just ready to die

Verse 2 (TwoShot Gabe):

Yea I was ready to die by someone demise
You're gonna hear me scream out I’m ready to rise
And as I stare into your eyes all the knowledge arise
I have to notice that suicide has become more popularize
And it be like everyone lines up to get on that one popular ride
I have pick up these things call binocular eyes
I use my binocular eyes to help see through everyone’s lies
I’m really tired of this shit I ain't gonna go try and hide
Even when I’m by myself I still carry my pride And even at night
When the demons come out it’s like I’m fighting a tribe
When there’s no one there it’s like all my inner demons trying to become intertwined
Ayy yo Cody let know what they gotta do so they can lay at rest they don’t wanna really be depressed
They don’t wanna cry, they don’t wanna die, they really just wanna survive
Damn, they wanna live on on and just fucking survive

Verse 3 (Cody Springer):

I feel for anyone that has a mental disorder
You feel like there is no escape
You are trapped in your own head
I felt like that once until I learned to own my mental illness
Now don't get me wrong it still affects me
But I learned to live with it
I realize that everyone else may not be as strong as me
So I feel like it's my duty to show them the way
I'm not sure how I survived this long
But it's clear that I'm here for a reason
I won't be a prisoner to the depression
I'll stand and fight until I die the way I’m supposed to

Verse 4 (TwoShot Gabe):

Yea imma come with the shit but it’s like
Have you ever had so many dreams and aspirations that never come to the eye?
Until now I see it clear than the fucking sky
And It time for me to find myself I ain't gonna lie
Yea the drill shit fire but people don't know when to draw the line
Truth be told my first two songs was just to get a vibe
Let’s get in deep into how I always had to grind for mine
And how when I lived in the hood I thought I was gonna die
By a guy with a nine who didn’t care about life
Like if taking that day was just apart of his life
And that if he took that bid and just killed me
He was gonna take flight and just live on while taking my life
But see we all gonna die but its really about if you wanna survive
Now I let it rest I just wanna thrive on get on to mine

Ready To Die (feat. TwoShot Gabe)

With Feeling

With Feeling (Intro)

Intro:

I'm ashamed, yes I really am
I'm ashamed that this country allows this
I'm ashamed of my ancestors for thinking this was cool
I'm ashamed that I live in Racist America

Verse 1:

As a white man in this country I can't even imagine how a black man feels
Being around racist white people who just wanna hate on you
It's so ridiculous, how can we allow this hatred to go unanswered?
No consequences for this bigotry
They act like it's cool for this to exist
How about we put ourselves in their shoes for a minute and feel how they do
I bet you that you would feel low about yourself
Knowing that you're hated on for the color of your skin
I feel so ashamed, I hate that I live in Racist America

Vocals

Verse 2:

Let's say their names 
Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Freddie Gray, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd
All senseless systematic racist killings, crooked law enforcement
These are the men who have sworn to protect and serve, more like kill and laugh about it
Officers not being indicted and the city pays off the families with millions of dollars
They put Derek Chauvin in prison because of the public outcry over him murdering George Floyd
They wanted to stop Black Lives Matter from continuing
Civil unrest is something they can’t control
So they sacrificed one of their racist cops to serve their greater good
I will say it once again so you understand
I feel so ashamed, I hate that I live in Racist America

Vocals

Verse 3:

I choose to speak up because I’m not afraid
I don’t see any white artists aside from Eminem standing with their black peers
Maybe its because their closeted racists
Middle fingers for you all if that’s the case
The truth is that they want to continue the racial divide between whites and blacks
But they underestimate the power of the person
We chose love and they hate it
It's more important now more than ever to stand in unity
I will say it one more time so you understand
I feel so ashamed, I hate that I live in Racist America.

Outro:

Remember racism is taught
Nobody is born racist
We have to teach the future to love one another
Regardless of our skin color
Then maybe one day, we won’t be Racist America

Racist America

Let’s talk about family for a minute
Family is very important but let’s not get things twisted
Family isn’t always blood related
The ones who have your back and love you are the ones you hold close
I’ve had some guys call me brother and turn their back on me
Cold world type shit but that’s life for you
Those who are in my corner now that’s the fam
I got them to the fullest no matter what
Because that’s what family does for each other
I’m out here trying to live life to the fullest
Doing it with my girl, my son, the family, and the homies
I place them at the most high of places
Without them I’m not me
I got broken pieces of myself and when they fall off they put them back on me
And I know that I’m the one who puts their pieces back in place as well
At this point in my life, my body is just a vehicle for my soul
My body is broken down but my soul is strong, my will is strong
That is because of the love and support of my family

Overthinking can cause so much bad shit to swirl in your head
You second guess everything that you do and you hurt people
Mainly because you're so confused and hurt yourself
Depression and anxiety finding its way to swallow you whole
Doesn’t help that you are struggling
Trying to find a way out of the dark place your in
Feeling boxed in trying to fight your way out
Life can be difficult but it’s all starts in your head
The way you deal with things is what matters at the end of the day
You can mope around and feel bad about yourself
Or you can stand up tall and face it with a positive mindset
Negativity breeds negativity, positive brings about positive
Some people are gonna hate you no matter what you do but don’t feed into it
Keep your head up no matter the odds
It's easy to lose your head when you second guess everything
Do what you gotta do to keep your mind right
Don't matter if it's music, video games, or puffing on a joint
Just remember that overthinking is the worst

Overthinking Is The Worst (prod. by Bankroll Beats)

Verse 1 (Cody Springer):

I’m trying to find myself
At times I feel lost and don’t know what to do
Trying to make it through the day to get to tomorrow
Sometimes I feel fucking bitter because I should be living better
Money, cars, and big houses is what I want
Providing a better way of life for my family
I work harder when I should be working smarter
I wish someone would show me the blueprint for success
I guess I have to create my own
My peers show me their respect
Even if my genre is different than theirs
I show them the love and they show it back
That’s what it’s about at the end of the day
I’m gonna get where I need to go
No matter what it takes

Chorus (Cody Springer):

I'm trying to find myself
In this dark place
I'm trying to find myself
In this dark, dark place

Verse 2 (Master C Gplat):

Pardon me
This life is bringing the worse in me
I'm not in my comfort zone
I feel like an entity
This pressure creating a void that I cannot fulfil
I'm losing my courtesy
My sanity
My vanity
I just wanna live alright thou
I just want the paper
Really want to pack it
Wanna pull up with a ride thou
I'm still hustlin'
I just want to make it
Cub a house by hills thou
Crossing harder by this dark road
Is it really worth a wait thou ??
Feel like I'm working hard with no back bone
It is hard being a man but I feel like I've never grown
There's no beauty in my struggle that just makes me feel alone
I just wanna drop some music and let my fans sing-a-long
I know my road to success is under construction
But imma find another route
To make it out, yeah, so

Chorus (Cody Springer):

I'm trying to find myself
In this dark place
I'm trying to find myself
In this dark, dark place

Verse 3 (BOY NBN):

What you see is not what you get
I keep on scrolling through texts that I left on read
My ego is too big I tell myself I don't need help
I'm always there for my people when they tell me they need to vent
But I'm always overthinking, my problems might be different
I know that I'm religious, my faith is non existence
I take my time and listen, but I don't feel no different, to victims, my feelings ain't healing
Dark days are birthdays this dark place is my brain
And I can't see my worth but I can feel these burns
These headaches like migraines, these demons they partake, In driving me off lane
I know that I'm closer to dream
I know the game I'm coming in

Chorus (Cody Springer):

I'm trying to find myself
In this dark place
I'm trying to find myself
In this dark, dark place
