New try out song
As a child I loved motown and soul. And few weeks ago I had this little rhythm inside of my head and translated it to this sing. So have a sweet little funky taste of the instrumental. Vocals will be coming soon <3.

Don't Look Back | Emotional Piano Hip-Hop Type Beat 2025

I'm catching strays in different ways, my enemies i let them fade, I've played the game pass several stage, they cannot fuck with me anyway.
Celeste thought I walked away I kept my word yet to this day, I cannot blame she saw and aimed I ate my cake and had my way.

I'm in a dark valley bitch I got a shield and a spear on me, confidence worn on me they lied about my arrogance to hold on me. 
set me on fire I'll call Tyla to give me that water, cannot take it no longer got to call me NickCannonMariah.

No one can stop me in this dark valley

I think high of myself the best in the game every penny I'm worth, free spirit rose from deadly occasions to claim I'm alive and well.
Cannot forget about the trials from birth, mama thought i wouldn't make it out here, her mistake was letting me out here, now I'm a menace to her enemies (yeah)

I'm in a dark valley bitch I got a shield and a spear on me, confidence worn on me they lied about my arrogance to hold on me. 
set me on fire I'll call Tyla to give me that water, cannot take it no longer got to call me NickCannonMariah.

DARK VALLEY

I had to do it for my boy Al — so I spit like a .50 cal.
This track hits hard with militant, high-caliber bars inspired by real-life hustle and grind.
No safety, just raw energy and relatable lyrics for anyone pushing to rise.
If you’re about that hustle mindset and real bars that connect — this one’s for you.
🔥 Listen, like, comment, and share if you feel the fire.

Chicago To Lake Forest Freestyle

Prod. @user-636406606

[Intro]
(Laugh)
That’s creepy

[Chorus]
Let’s keep going, let’s keep growing, let’s keep blowing, oh, I can do it better
Whiskey coded, Skinny Kodak, they don’t know it, oh, I can do it better
Jet-ski rolling, A. Ski glowing, broski flowing, think he can do it better
Nah, nah

[Verse 1]
On and on and on and on (I just keep on laughing)
How it’s possible? (They think that they good at rapping)

In the kitchen, cooking, breaking dishes, way too ambitious, body, rhymes too delicious
Now you know that I’m vicious
But I’m also too precious
Let it go, got no issues
Shit gets too superstitious, uh

[Chorus]
Let’s keep going, let’s keep growing, let’s keep blowing, oh, I can do it better
Whiskey coded, Skinny Kodak, they don’t know it, oh, I can do it better
Jet-ski rolling, A. Ski glowing, broski flowing, think he can do it better
Nah, nah

[Verse 2]
Honey, honey, honey, do you got some money?
You ain’t got some money, you gotta ask me, honey
It’s not like I’m against, I think you should’ve guessed
You treat me way too bad, I’m not even your friend

They about to pull up
Be like «Skinny, wassup
Heard that you hiding some, got that breast and that butt»

Then I say I go home
And I’m leaving alone
If you think that I’m caught
Motherfucker, you dumb

[Chorus]
Let’s keep going, let’s keep growing, let’s keep blowing, oh, I can do it better
Whiskey coded, Skinny Kodak, they don’t know it, oh, I can do it better
Jet-ski rolling, A. Ski glowing, broski flowing, think he can do it better

[Outro]
He can do it better?
Nah, he can’t do it better
