[Intro DrewB]
The BX that's right is where my story begins North Central was the spot I was conceived in. 7:46 sunrise the doctor reached and a star was born cold world it's winter season. According to us the empire is within our state. The birth place of where we're from was amongst the greats. KRS-One, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane to my favorite JAY, now DrewB is an addition what more can I say? You've been verbally abused and it's hard to choose, to revive your culture or let it diffuse? I haven't a clue of what I’ma do, but I promise to keep it true ‘cause Hip-Hop I'm in love with you.

[Verse 1: DrewB]
I'm so humbly spirited to know that we can relate
To its originated being so let's procreate
Reminisce the old times as we integrate
And keep it out the hands of the foolish who simulate

Outlet escape street life wasn't meant for me
A thousand different routes music's an alternative piece
Just keepin' it Rich and saw who I wanted to be
So with every performance a superstar is seen

Your only lifetime opportunity who can ignore
A bloody pill led to the hole where the rabbits tour
A destination of where the real magicians score
It was hats full of tricks that don't need to be worn

You are who you think you are so pass me the crown
Relied on a nice guy to ghost write it down
Told me he couldn't share his thoughts I figured out how
To play my cards wealthy and independent now, wow!


**Interlude between DrewB & Cotton El Murkot**

Save This Last Beat

Save This Last Beat (Feat. Cotton El Murkot) [Prod. By James Garrison Summers]

[Verse 1]
Born to make it happen with this vision of mine
Engineering my craft it contrived over time
Skillfully finessed had to stay on my grind
Then kick push and coast while I roll pass by

Fictitious, pathetic raps from idiots
In a city where street cred seems tedious
Monotonously dull underhandedly devious
The tactics you practice are dishonest in secrets so listen

You ain’t the only one here
Give credit where its due act right and revere
Your moral behavior is simply a mere of who you perceive to be as a person with fear but who cares

[Chorus 2x]
Who cares I have nothing to lose
Earth's finest emcee speak my truth
With or without these dudes I still manage to choose
The analytical artwork that's what ima do
	
[Verse 2]
Despite the negativity of rumors and lies
A good chance made this dedication divine
Believed in myself insinuating my rhymes
Maneuvered Dark Star still I shine so bright

You can't fathom how I empower my light
When I needed your help critical at the time
But it's of the essence currency for some time
You ain't moving at all stagnant in a bind

Why invest in black business when your mind ain’t right
Then you felt some type of way all because he was white
Remotely aloof this perception revived depicted fake from the real of tunnel vision in sight

DrewB's ingenious my name will sustain
The mindset of an emcee forever retained
You're deemed incompetent and that'll remain
Until you prove yourself worthy for respect in exchange but I'm saying

[Chorus 2x]
Who cares I have nothing to lose
Earth's finest emcee speak my truth
With or without these dudes I still manage to choose
The analytical artwork that's what ima do

[Verse 3]
They say what goes around comes around doesn't it
Found out how you underestimated the kid
So then you contacted me to do a feature and shit
Only because you see how I handle my biz

But credit the one who took me under his wings
Its only been 10 years I'm 'bout to shine like bling
Production mic and an amp will get me six rings
I'm coached by the G.O.A.T. running isosceles things

So I made the last shot offensively
Over Bryan Tyson's beat on this EP
Ironically before those letters simply add DE
Yo B, tell the people that's a DEEP analogy

I am the industry I'm Hip-Hop's lift
We'll never see eye to eye I'm Top Notch with it
So believe me or not lyrically I'm a gift
With the singular noun y'all ain't catching my drift but then again

[Chorus 2x]
Who cares I have nothing to lose
Earth's finest emcee speak my truth
With or without these dudes I still manage to choose
The analytical artwork that's what ima do

Elixir of Life

Elixir of Life (Prod. By Bryan Tyson of Deep Productions)

[Intro]
Y'all didn't know Mama DrewB always called me a geek? But a geek is a socially inept person. I'm more of a nerd. And this is my rage with social media. Listen

[Verse 1]
Single minded expert in a particular field
The shit I see is technical that's just how I feel
Logged on my socials from what was revealed
Made me so astonished of what been concealed

What my eyes seen isn't unique all fake everything got it down to a tee
But it doesn't matter you want people to see
That your hair nails and eyebrows on fleek

Selfie game so strong bet it won't be long
Until you playing Sisqo's song with you in a thong
It was no flex zone yet you turn men on
Since you don't know better give a dog his bone

Wasn't impressed on Facebook and Instagram
Seeing posts of these unborn sonograms
Now that should be private between you and your man
With that relationship I won't understand

Seek attention for likes you uploaded their pics
Sure your newborn child never asked for this shit
Jealousy and hatred oh ain’t that a bitch
Exposed your personal life now contribute to it

This part right here is for the sheriff and cops
State Troopers too who be on the watch
Pulling people over just to see what they got
The proper grammar is have so are you shooting or not

Taking men out the car threw him face down
Keep your hands behind your head and don't make a sound
Where is Miranda nowhere to be found
Had to forfeit his rights a black man's on the ground

He's scared for his life shit just got real
Overturned situation white supremacy kills
To protect and serve right let peace be still
But the weapon you have that side piece be steel

Now he's dead remorse can't be deterred
Probable cause of what has occurred
Rest in peace my brothers' ima kill ‘em with words
They say it has power DrewB Shmurda the world

The B is for Bobby who remembers the show?
The shh to keep silent do it on the low
Too late no turning back this nerd's on a role
Cold hearted flow now I have no soul
If y'all keep this up ima make it a goal
To create an atomic and watch as it blows

[Interlude At All Times]
Aye yo James switch it up man let me switch it up on ‘em real quick

[Verse]
Transition a switch like Lupe Fiasco
No award winner common sense and I pass go
Monopolize collect while my cash grows
Monopolize collect while my cash grows

Eye in a pyramid it can be so
Illuminate the whole world this is what he's told
Language Arts reveals light from what he knows
Acknowledge beast coast take heed now behold

Forever a pro no error with ease though
If the B is for Badass capitalize, Steelo
Rest in peace an emcee's flow
It's embedded from the roots DrewB reaching for these souls

Reaching for these souls
Reaching for these souls
Reaching for these souls
Embedded from the roots DrewB reaching for these souls

47 is life just remain a balance at all times
At all times at all times
Keep your focus at all times perceive your vision at all times
Share love and light at all times
Spiritual mind at all times

A Nerd's Rage/At All Times (Prod. By James Garrison Summers)

[Intro DrewB]
To all the beautiful ladies out there
May we have your attention please
Live from DrewB and Bishop Wayne
This here is an appreciation track of who you are

[Verse 1: DrewB]
The intellect you have is a mind of your own
That’s whether if you’re single or your man is at home
This woman I speak of her maturity’s grown
Elegant independent in herself well-known

You’ve worked so hard throughout your endeavors
And no deed goes unpunished I acknowledge your efforts
The course of Mother Nature feminism is better
It’s what the world needs love and affection forever

Initially the one who’s any real man’s dream
Bring her home to Mama DrewB who can’t wait to foresee
How I’m so caught up and got a hold on me
I’m feeling pretty rich the homie better believe

Knowing that you’re loyal with perception I see
You kept your moral principles no lies in between
Never petty or facts that’s indicated obscene
Forget being a trap queen you’re a masterpiece

[Chorus]
You treat me right
You treatin’ me right oh you gotta love her
You do yeah baby girl you do yeah
Can’t explain how I’m feeling though
Don’t understand and yet I never will
But it feels so good

[Verse 2: Bishop Wayne]
She hafi be an angel sent from above
Her vibe she style is love love love
Independent classy ah wonderous touch everything that she does is much much much
Without inna me life it is rough
She’s ah dream a gift any man would of want living every day fi a chance
Hoping and pray they get choose for romance
Like my sweetest love song let’s dance
The two of we together what a real nice bond can’t leave this thing of fi chance
This is what I’m saying
I want you girl I need you girl don’t wanna live my life without you baby
Now tell her DrewB

[Chorus]
You treat me right
You treatin’ me right oh you gotta love her
You do yeah baby girl you do yeah
Can’t explain how I’m feeling though
Don’t understand and yet I never will
But it feels so good

[Vamp DrewB]
Yo Bishop let me tell you about this one girl I know
Cuz she’s so amazing to me

[Verse 3: DrewB]
We finally met each other in this lifetime
Played the cards I was dealt tryna win her tonight
Then gambled my chances when I know it ain't right
A whole lot of woman but ain't dividing the pie

We working at the same job ironically
Because everyone knew that her and I had a thing
Surprised her with flowers when she turned 23
So many beautiful colors and she just couldn’t speak

In a situation where there’s children involved
Had two little girls from the pictures I saw
We shared late nights always had me in awe
The energy was consumed whenever she called

Dedicated this song pertaining to we
Forever so sincere true again when we meet
With reincarnation bring me back to a queen
Known as Nandi Shakur next life is complete
So I told her indeed

[Chorus 2x]

[Outro Bishop Wayne]
Ladies across the world it feels so good to recognize you
From DrewB and Bishop Wayne a special dedication to you
We love you muah

You Treat Me Right 2021

You Treat Me Right (Feat. Bishop Wayne) [Prod. By James Garrison Summers]

[Intro]
With music nowadays it’s hard to comprehend
Metaphoric references and analogies for you to understand
But this is for you to think so ima drop knowledge on you 
Feel me? Yo James Summers bring the beat in
Uh-huh now that’s what I’m talking about 
Ooouuu yeah! This right here is for the soul
I’m awakening your consciousness and awareness people
Now, without further or due, let’s get to it

[Chorus 2x]
Think twice ‘bout the actions you take
From when you’re awake ‘til the end of the day
Once it’s said and done with decisions you make
It determines which principles to never forsake, contemplate

[Verse 1]
Y’all sleeping on the creator of this pineal gland
Only Top Dawg’s Ab-Soul knows what I’m saying
Behind the 3rd ventricle inside your brain
It’s conically shaped but who comprehends?

I write songs for people’s mind to expand 
This generation is lost then it came to an end
Guess ima be the emcee to make their amends
Well inevitably speaking here I stand

Subconsciously y’all in quicksand 
With trap rap nowadays escape if you can 
With its allure temptation began
A mirage of what you see again and again 

Just doing my part so fully understand
Intuition is within which guides our plan
Without no doubt you could say I’m the man 
Master of my own universe it’s all in my hands 
Contemplate

[Chorus 2x]
Think twice ‘bout the actions you take
From when you’re awake ‘til the end of the day
Once it’s said and done with decisions you make
It determines which principles to never forsake, contemplate

[Verse 2]
You just never give up on to something that you really want
Possess what you been wishing for don’t display your flaunt
Read into minds of other people thinking like Avant
It’s literary composition a medieval conte

Life’s a short term for you to be missing
Impossible says I’m possible when there is division
With every power move calculating decision
Solution to it all shows control of your vision

Higher than a mountain swift with the written 
Brain matter lucid so clearly he thinking
Mind in the clouds and feeling uplifted 
Blessed with heavens grace glorified he gifted 

Such an array of true light and displayed
Prominently shown with attention he pay
Go ahead and shine initially to portray 
How to think before you speak in a particular way 
So think twice

[Chorus 2x]
Think twice ‘bout the actions you take
From when you’re awake ‘til the end of the day
Once it’s said and done with decisions you make
It determines which principles to never forsake, contemplate

[Verse 3]
The sky ain’t the limit so if I’m way up who’s next?
To do it for hip hop another verse mic check
One two one two my sound will possess 
The attention of consumers that are in distress

With content pertaining to what’s irrelevant 
So in sync with his intellect
Cerebral capacity was developed as a consequence
Who pays heed to the embezzlement?
The system is doing fraudulent activities, conglomerate 

Collectively it’s just one at a time 
Until they have an empire with irrational minds
Before they manipulate I’m the Saint to revive 
My wide receivers yes the jersey number a nine

You know my name so the B is for Brees 
Lyricism penetrated and I’m aiming to please
Running mentally deep a Hail Mary received
Touchdown with no safety intercepting the dream 
Know what I mean?

[Chorus 4x]
Think twice ‘bout the actions you take
From when you’re awake ‘til the end of the day
Once it’s said and done with decisions you make
It determines which principles to never forsake, contemplate

Contemplate

Contemplate (Prod. By James Garrison Summers)

[Verse 1]
I envisioned more than one medium of expression
To share with others knowledge of day to day life’s lessons
Timing is everything took heed striving for perfection
Just mixed and mastered what I wrote then had a DEEP session

Commanders in chief that’s only how beat bosses do
Dynamic duo from The Presidentz and I salute
To earn your keep hip hop I’ll be a vet for you
When it’s time I’ll perish but Universal to the Music Group

So globally I’ll be remembered forever
It was the path in which undertook all my endeavors
Repetitive consistency made me achieve this effort
That was the state of mind I gained just to reveal my clever

Urband Dialectz do it for the sake of Hip-Hop
Rhyming for a reason while they hate we hater block
Barricades in the way tryna make a stop
But there’s more than 4 ways for us to reach the top

Genuine keepin’ it real forever bonafide
Without intention to deceive and have them mortified
Despite negativity foundation we solidified 
The laws of hip hop has been arranged, codified

[Chorus 2x]
Language Arts that’s where ima start
From the bottom of which we came and made it this far
Well since my bars are up to par that just means ima star
Now I have them in awe give me a round of applause

[Verse 2]
They say beauty’s in the eye of the beholder
So y’all can just be and ima take a hold of her
She reflected the importance of what I desired
Mirrored the fairest of them all it’s what I admire

With success attract what you expect
Your only lifetime opportunity don’t live with regrets
Always striving for the best never settle for less
The mic controller, finally became what I respect

Well who’s he? DrewB’s an MC
A story telling young Master of the Ceremonies
Originated abbreviation back in 1930
Ironically he’s rich but his wealth aren’t the M’s see

The gift I obtain comes from the soul
No matter what it takes gotta make this a goal
Next level to be bold as it unfolds
Courageous with the mic to hold ima let it be told so 

[Chorus 2x]
Language Arts that’s where ima start
From the bottom of which we came and made it this far
Well since my bars are up to par that just means ima star
Now I have them in awe give me a round of applause

[Verse 3]
Impeccable with the words that I keep
So the pinnacle wasn’t hard for me to achieve
In the end moving mountains was where I stood at a peak
Well now that I’m here success ushered a seat

Roll up with good times only papers is what I seek
Laughter gives good times of enjoyment that’s what I need
Sky’s the limit taking off while my eyes bleed
I’m lifted higher mind good times word to Styles P

Nothing worth having comes easy it’s what you have to do
Make it happen keep your focus and you’ll make it through
I voiced a masterpiece Rosetta Stone for clues
The B is for Been speaking the language my art is true

[Chorus 2x]
Language Arts that’s where ima start
From the bottom of which we came and made it this far
Well since my bars are up to par that just means ima star
Now I have them in awe give me a round of applause

Language Arts

Language Arts (Prod. By The Presidentz)

[Intro]
They say fear is in the eye of the beholder
Had to be brave when I thought it was over
What don't kill me can only make me stronger
Thank you Mr. West it only made me bolder
Like a soldier or wiser as if I was older
Just keeping it real certified as hip hop's owner so

[Verse]
Just understand that I pursued this for you
Once the beat is produced authentic writing is due
I'm only speaking the truth behind the mic in the booth
Now after what you heard lyrical genius is proof

A powerful mind has been born from the womb and conformed
Into what people perceived his true art has been drawn
They say the shoe can always fit no matter whose foot it's on
Well I'm half a human being it's the hooves that are worn

Yeah my sign is a Sadge a centaur with a mask
Thessalonians tribe I'm an expert at that
And I'm just stating facts on the tracks that I rap
So word to Kendrick Lamar ima pick up the slack

Thought his missions impossible but look he's unstoppable
007 his younger brother's remarkable
I respect your leadership S.R.R. you're honorable
A vet in my heart so to your service admirable

Overly dedicated with prayer thoughts meditation
With love and support my achievements are radiated
Then I met Bryan in May of 2013
Couldn't explain the feeling when I first met him at DEEP
Then he completely mixed and mastered my first EP
Bolded with the hashtag #iamdrewb

Control of the game at the palm of my hands
A blueprint was devised and critiqued as a plan
To act upon the words I spoke so ima say it again
I think I gotta good chance so perceive apprehend

With beats ahead of your time that's Grown Man Music, C-Skills
Ask him 'bout my music he gon' say that he see skills
Let's be real a mastermind is revealed
Independently I've done it no distribution or record deal

Take heed with an ear the grand finale is near
Of how profound this sound is applaud him and cheer
So let it be clear it's my time of the year
The language arts of hip hop is finally here

Finally Here

Finally Here (Prod. By James Garrison Summers)
