Lyrics:
No easy way

I just wanna-
I just wanna ask-
(Do I?) Do what I wanna
Let’s get off it
I don’t like insultin’
Come again,
I don’t like misquotin’, hm

Let’s get on it
(Let’s get on it)
They ain’t on it
(They ain’t on it)
They ain’t own it
(They ain’t known it)

Let’s get off-
Is ya’ life in motion?
Couple things you don’t like disclosin’, hm?

Let’s get off at
44th-5th, when the sprite gets potent
Lean w/ the sips, I don’t like this potion…

Let’s get official:
Corporates said I’m "hyper-focused"
Your bests said, I like it though, it’s—
Mm-mm, Uh-uh,
Closest…
She felt to meltin’
I’m so close, coulda’ fell ‘n’ hurt skeleton

Let’s get the tiramisu
I’ll make sure tyranny doesn’t get rulership
Let’s build a pyramid too
I do not care for the world and its rudiments
I want the Spirit in you
You want the Evening, I want it too but then I’d have to carry the moon
//
Jump right in,
Jump right in
I just wanna jump right in
…
I, I, I, I, I

Lyrics:
...
Showing my inner face through audio interface.
That's probably been written way before;
I'll reiterate:
I speak out into space-
You hear me, at any rate,
I wave via .wav(e)s,
Face you through my inner face...
Et cetera, end of statement.
Are you not entertained?
I'm Mr. D. Grey... Cloud when it rains.
I missed her face, missed her bright side in the shade.
I wonder, if 6 was 8, would 8 be in 6's place?
Would this be a disc you play?
Do you see D. exist to day?
The evening just missed the rays of sunlight hittin' ya face...
Some thing is hid in ya' face...
I need a minute of grace...
I take some time to build a body, I fitness pace.
Having seen many plays,
I know the antagonist typically gets the praise.
Murderous souls tend to be stars that kill the stage.
The audience's inclination isn't to miss the saint.
I almost wish an angel told mama, The kid is safe.
Ha, ha-
I could laugh at you all day,
But why would that make any thing change?
So I'll be black and blue for to day-
And to morrow, I'll make every thing grey.

To Day, I could put Blood in your name:
To signify what they call a shame.
To morrow, keep the colours the same;
Because yesterday had blood on the frame...
Red-coloured paint,
Red-coloured paint,
They don't love a saint,
They don't love a saint,
They don't love a saint.
Blood stained the ottoman.
Blood stained apartment.
Blood Stained, the Horror flick
Too much pain, through much pain
Blood stained the garment,
Blood stain on my blue cardigan.
Blood stained on the car, it's got tint,
Blood stains, blood stains.
What you think will have a positive change?
To love or to hate the narcissist?
Well, he's blood stained, you wanted it.
But if he won the game, you'd want it to end.
Blood stained, the heart is.
Blood stained the Heartist.
If blood was the aim, the target's been hit.
Blood stains, the blood stays.

Have you seen blood with blood on top of it? A blood stained blood stain.
From blood stain to blood stain.
Multiply the love for To Day,
& Nullify the product of hate.
Blood stains a blood stain.
Blood stain, blood stain
Blood stain, blood stain...

Love be multiplied.
Thanks,

D. G., Duzzy

Lyrics:
(La, la, la, la la la la, la, la, la, la la la la, la, la la)
Lately, there’s been times that I’ve been praying for the mainstream, by the creek bend;
Because the former way leads on a ride that never ends the way it seems when it begins.
And the way of peace isn’t wide enough for a man to save the dreams he once believed in.
The pain will leave when the darkness in your head meets the day’s beam it can’t comprehend.
Now what you’re about to hear, and that which you’ve just heard; was written in other years, and since I’ve seen rebirth:
Tell Hades, he can come and face me.
I just did a full one eighty on the wavelength.
I’m tired of living afraid,
I don’t want to feel this strange.
I’m tied up,
Give me a break…
I just want to sit right where I am, and watch it rain.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away:
La la la la la la la la la, okay;
I sing la la la la la to y’all that lost your way.
I’ve been lost as well, I’ve been lost as Hell.
I cried along the way, for I had been caught astray.
Let’s say, I know a woman named, Dy…
I’d rather lie to die to day, than lie to Dy to day.
Things aren’t hard to say, but they’re hard to hear.
From a heart that’s stained, a heart of stone, the heart of Grey-
(La, la, la, la la la la, la, la, la, la la la la, la, la la)
I’m tired of living afraid,
I don’t want to feel this strange.
I’m tied up,
Give me a break…
I just want to sit right where I am, and watch it rain.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away.
We just put two shells into the sand, let’s wash away.

Let me be please
I’m not watching Super Bowl, nothing
Turn off the TVs
Matter of fact, I’m more like Wayne,
Just let the beast sleep
Some talk about me like I’m a grain,
“That man is holy”
But y’all able to move like Cain
And still get some sweet dreams
They talk about me just like their goals,
“I couldn’t reach him”
You talk about me like I’m a stain,
“I couldn’t bleach him”
Paint coloured more like pain,
That’s R-E-D
My team gon’ be eating forever
That’s our ED
My dad say I’m too preachy,
All peachy
Love ya’ as myself, hate my own life

See, I appreciate ya’, but I still hate ya’,
That’s something that I could repeat
So repeat, so repeat,
I reap what I sow,
And I eat what I reap,
Sow, reap, eat, sow, reap, eat
Sow, reap, eat, sow, reap, eat
Okay
I reap what I sow,
And I eat what I reap,
Sow, reap, eat, sow, reap, eat
Sow, reap, eat, sow, reap, eat
Okay
G, I appreciate ya’, that’s in my nature
There’s something that I should repeat,
Repeat, repeat, repeat…

Let me be, G
I stayed alive, til 2025
Tell that to GB
I moved on in 2023
And won’t recede
The greener the borough
The deeper the roots
The trees reach
High enough to meet us,
Feed us the fruit
Then re-seed
The most gate kept from Gate City
To Poughkeepsie
The lows can break sweats, but peaks kill,
Here’s a sneak peek
The moment days get to see 12,
It nears evening
I won’t retrace steps
Pain, stress rears ink bleed
Go to the place I slept in CT
Watch ya feet freeze
All hail the God who sees me,
The Lord freed me
Believe me
Months before
I knew what all was in store
I scanned each thing
Memories I may have packed
From homes I stayed briefly
When in between, my brain attacked
My soul, and Satan beat me
My M.O. refined,
I must be me!
I got sum’ to give,
But when I’m trying to find it
The fuck leaves me
I couldn’t leave this note in a drawer
To never be received
I washed away my old signature
It’s yours,
DG


P.S. Smile again, I beseech thee.

Are you ready?

Let me answer that question
They not ready
I apologize for the wait
This is not normal
I don’t drop heavy
This is not formal
This is not friendly
This is not a quarter
This is not a penny
This is point blank just change
Save the praise and the confetti
We do not celebrate
I said it
Don’t let anyone tell you 
Switch your game, you’re supposed-
Uh huh
I keep on doing my thing,
It’s not your thing,
I heard it before
Uh huh
I touched my hand to the stove
The next thing I know
I burned the stove
Uh huh
I stand on real firm grounds
When I curve a hoe
Let me be, I adjure ya honour
I’m sorry I’m going to war ya honour
I’m sorry there’s blood on the floor ya honour
I couldn’t retreat to the fort ya honour
I knew when we sat at the table
with Emily Rata
I couldn’t afford ya Anna
I know you like bad ones too
Uh-huh…
Like Jorjiana
The choicest cut, the filet mignon
I’m finna go up, invade ya home
I’m finna mask up, the bane is on
Ok ok ok ok, ya gone
I’m finna just put it- the pay is long
I’m finna just done it, my name alone
on the list
I’m finna just cut it the cut off
I’ll come with is quick, the gain is gone
Like Bic, the flame is on
You made a song
It stayed a song
I played ya song
And changed the song
Now play along
Don’t let ya clique get fit checked
Like click, the flick, the frame is on
The way i’m flowin’ man I’m laying ‘em on
It’s pretty much the same as sayin’ I’m prone
I got a shift in at 6,
I’m clocking in at the break of dawn
I’ll stay in the zone, you stay on the phone
I played it cool when you played a persona
They don’t think that I’m the same as I was
It’s at the point I’m like ok I’m a clone
I’m workin’ too hard for them
The feeling you get when you late on a loan
I’m walkin’ too far for them
How many steps I’ll take to spacious home
A star for them is a scar for them
A cast away from breakin’ bones
The script gets flipped
A change of ownership
The ship is sailing on
The pain is long
The paper long
The prayer long
The pressure on

The pressure on
Are you the press? 
The pressure on
Are you upset?
The pressure on
Why you so pressed?
The pressure on
The fool said-
The pressure on
Are you the press? 
The pressure on
Are you upset?
The pressure on
Why you so pressed?
The pressure on
The fool said-
The fool said
That blue was red
The moon bled
That fool was dead
The fool said
That blue was red
The moon bled
That fool was dead
That fool was dead

Not all reds are the shade of a ruby.
Not all chains are the weight of your jewelry.
Not all legs run the same pace as who leads.
Not all heads think in the ways that you think.
Not all things are as plain as they do seem.
Not the sex, not the checks, not the movies…
Not the theft, not the death, not the shooting…
Not the press of the pencil that drew me…

All the colours are gray unto thee,
Until thou art given eyes to see.
Only then will you know the world truly,
Only then will you know pure beauty.
All the colours are gray unto thee,

Ahem, excuse me, can I get 2 minutes?
Thanks for your time,
I’m honoured that you listen in.
Are you aggravated?
by the world that you live in? (hm)
Come get activated,
Something like that new ticketing. (hm)
Something fascinating,
You can see with new lenses. (hm)
This that unabridged…
Hm—
I left that one colourless. (mhm)
Okay, now, you fill it in
Do you know what colour is? (Mhm)
Have you been neutral within?

(Nothing in the city ever changed,
We got used to it)
I guess we’re so used to being neutral,
(Run away, I’d follow you today,
Wherever you went)
Who knows where you would’ve went
(You know there’s nothing I can say,
if you choose this)
Said you’d choose being neutral
(Except okay-ay-ay, na that’s useless)
Na, na, na you bullshitting

Get that unabridged,
All inclusive new edition
Fully coloured in,
Come on now, get you some pigment
You got some’ to give
Show them what you contributin’
And like my mother said,
You gon’ get what you’ve been givin’

Came of age,
But I still been actin’ youthfully
I just f*’d a h*
so that’s one thing I’m going thru g
I’m in the business of preservation but I don’t zoo-keep
I’m tryna make sum’ shake, like a smoothie
Dare I hesitate to say, yea, my name is Duzzy
My name is Duncan,
And the Spanish call me Dunking
I want my queen to be like,
Oh hey how you doin’ king?
Let’s build the castle of our dreams 
And keep our rooms clean
Please excuse the mess I’ve made,
I just moved in
Please make sure the next step that you take is an improvement (or what??)
Please excuse my colour change,
And my hubris 
Ah, I see what you just did?
Aha, so humorous
I say I’m a man of many colours,
But you say human
Others speculate I’m on a spectrum,
But that’s not too extreme
Sad and envious is how I’m cyan ‘em
In other words, to me,
They’re looking blue green
In another world we’d meet
Without confusion
And I’d be doing things that would otherwise behoove me
But I believe if you had seen me
Bleeding out & still moving
You wouldn’t let me be
How could I let you be?

Thou art given thine eyes to see…

I say good day, and good evening
This one’s for good ‘cause I’m leavin’
F- for worse I believe in
My heart is better not beatin’
My mind is better not thinkin’
Whether I’m dead or I’m decent
I’m divin’ straight in the deep end
I’m dreamin’, deem me a demon
Wait, I don’t mean it, I preach it
Please do not get the deacon
Please do not, I don’t need him
And when I stop, now you’re grievin’
‘cause when I’m gone it’s convenient
So take your promise and keep it
I hope to God I’m forgiven
and not forgotten, I’m pleadin’
Neck is better off bleedin’
My lungs are better not breathin’
My best is bettered by beings
other than me, I’m not needed
I’m going down a different groove
I chose to check out the scenic
I know that now is never proven
had to step out and see it
In all truth I can’t stand it
I lie to rest now I’m sleepin’
I stole a life, what’s a bandit
that takes his own? he’s a genius
say my body’s a palace,
that I can say I agree with
I aim it right at that temple
What king commits his own treason?
and never dies, still

I rode my bike thru these hills
a few times
I was excited to feel a new ride
I thought my life would be filled
with you and I
But now I, I wouldn’t write in my will
that you were mine
I rode my bike thru these hills
a few times
I was excited to feel a new ride
I thought my life would be filled
with you and I
But now I, I wouldn’t write in my will
that you were right

I was alone in some battles
You were alone in some battles
I rode my bike thru the valley
I was alone in my travels
In a day those kids were imaginin’
In a day so glittered and glamorous
In a rainbow river paddling
The day glow glimmered, wish that was it
I thought my life would be filled
with you inside it
I was excited to feel
I got too excited
You were excited as well
and you didn’t hide it
I rode my bike thru these hills
you didn’t ride it
you didn’t ride it

I rode my bike thru these hills
a few times
I was excited to feel a new ride
I thought my life would be filled
with you and I
But now I, I wouldn’t write in my will

I rode my bike thru these hills

I been
Caught in (cotton) your eyes
So I’m wishy and washy, I
can’t help picturing you kissing me softly
Had my first show
and I was wishing you watched me
But you didn’t
So I’m tripping and I’m finna just call things
off between you and me
‘cause it isn’t what it all seems
It’s like the world is giving everybody
nothing but success but it didn’t involve me
Imma be j chillin stay sippin this soft drink
but something’s gotta be in it,
‘cause I’m tipsy and topsy, this re-
lationship is getting fishy, it’s sardines
lately all you do is throw a fit and then
cause scenes
cruising down the road and then you hear
it’s the car, screech
Must be nice
You’re fulfilling all your dreams
Must be nice to own givenchy and tommy
Must be nice to know how silly it all seems
to have the money, and the material things
Really wanna sit in city apartments
and crack jokes like comedy skits
with whitney and bobby
But the only other thing that I’ll be missing’s
a darling
so ten years, if I’m alive, give me a call please

I’m not perfect
I once would deny it
There’s a million times I said things
when I should’ve kept quiet

Like the girl I bought the hat for
I hope you’re doing well
And you get every thing you ask for
I hope my mom’s at peace
when life walks out the back door
When I think about our time together
wish we would’ve had more
And I wish I saw my dad more
And I wish I’d never wished
that I could have more

And I know it sounds a little bit absurd
but I think I can make a difference
with a little bit of words

So when it’s time for me to give up the act
Drift into the past, fade into black
I hope every one forgives me for that

Please, Forgive Me

Love, Me (feat. Snøw & Mishaal)

Buzz cut shorter than my love last
F* up trust, now she’s asking for her love back
F* that, couldn’t even tell her how it was
Used to take me home
now I gotta take the bus back
Always feel alone when I walk inside a room
You can take me home
but I’d rather stay with you
Say you gotta go
but I know you never do
You don’t ever know what you want
Switch up your mood
Guess I was the same
Said I couldn’t love you
Like it wasn’t me to blame
Never kept in touch
and now the feeling went away
Got me looking stuck
and I ain’t got a thing to say
No, guess I’ll have to wait
It’s such a shame
(Such a mf* pain)

Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun…

Love’s drug, a substance unmatched
It’s one ya’ run from
Assumptions jump back
It’s dumb but what’s done
Becomes irreversible
And what once was begun
becomes past
And, I don’t got time
You know I’m fine
That’s what I say I’m lying
And in my mind
Feel like I’m high
I put my heart on the line
Say I’m alright
Don’t wanna fight
Really I just wanna hide
Really I feel like I’m put on the side
I cannot make you decide
I’m
Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun…

At My Worst!
