Lyrics:
(yo, I’m not tryna force it, like if we never see each other again.
You know...check it...just the other day...)

Look, she might have a ten, or at least a nine
chillin with her friend round Easter time
I wanna march over and speak my mind
But I’m too laid back, like when seats recline
Plus she looking uptight like, it’s not the time
And i know a lot of women, they walk around the streets
Avoiding all the dogs, on the prowl for the meet
Saying it her ass fault that my dick concrete
and your boy get bitter when she don’t act sweet
Got me thinking bout this girl that i saw last week
Her whole style was on point, got no critique
We were riding on the T, people just don't speak
And even though we never talked, she seemed unique
Never got to know her name or the things she likes
But I been thinkin bout this dame every single night?
Like damn, should’ve asked her if she’s single, right?


(chorus/hook)
Nah, I’ll never see your ass again.
Nah, I’ll never see your ass again.
I know I’ll never see your ass again.
Now I’ll never see your ass again.  

Look I had a few drinks, and so did she
At a club downtown, when she noticed me
the type of girl you only see up on a poster, b
My mind off so far, but she close to me
And I’m thinking yo man this is how it’s sposed to be
Like I really can't front, she got a behind
Tho her face look fine, what she got in her mind
JD ginger ale, she sips some wine
At another damn party with our hips aligned
at the club or in life, i been on the grind
got brain so good like a mastermind 
from the warmth of a goddess, feel so divine
Putting two fingers up for my peace of mind
even tho i know her name, and the way she feels
I was wrong see i know she got a man, foreal
We don't roll no more, thats a broken wheel

(chorus/hook)

Damn How many will I meet and greet, but never know?
How many will repeat the words that flow from my lips “hello”, 
give smile really quick, “sorry got to go”, in a world so cold
Never do you any good to be bad with names
But if we never cross paths, then it’s all the same
Got a lot of other people who up on my brain
Memories in my mind, old photo in a frame 
Look i recognize your face... but it’s all in vain
“sorry what was your name? And when did we meet?”
How many facebook friends, you never do see?
Had some fake ass friends talking clever to me
But Ima go with the flow, man whatever it be
I got my fam, and my plan to be a better emcee
so bad with names, but you gotta believe
Mad people in your life that you just don’t need

(chorus/hook)

Lyrics:
yo that was yesterday
I give my best today
Don’t stress today, don’t stress

She go to sleep, wake up, lady got the makeup
mad time take up, but yo she tryna takeoff
exstripper on a grayhound, everyday off
fiendin for a cig with a day cough 
used to have the looks for the payoff
now she reminisce, her eyes drift
and i remember "shit used to down a fifth for the bliss of a kiss
from that girl with that tattooed wrist" 
and tho i promised her shit
i couldn't ever love her
left her grip for the lips of another
then another, even undercover
a girl with a ring? ain't a thing
but it's hard to find a lover
Damn you got me hot, my summer
so even tho the seasons go
can't seem to let you go
let's take it slow
live learn laugh, you know

(chorus/hook)
Cos yo that was yesterday
C’mon that was yesterday (that was yesterday)
Like yo that was yesterday (that was yesterday)
I give my best today (that was yesterday)
Don’t stress today, don’t stress

Here we go again, 12AM
bout ready to knock, then a knock from a friend
like “yo lets hit the spot, it's been popping since ten”
I'm like fuck it, I'm in
got my boy for the wing, man, let it begin
on my game when i walk in, dames get to talkin 
but i cant hear shit, music bang keep it rockin
pouring all that poison got my name on a coffin
but often, I'm off in the zone
like damn she lookin grown and i gotta take her home
make her moan, gotta hope she’ll never know
it was never us alone, there’s a record on my phone
and i bet u there’s a second bitch who also wanna bone
but tho i played the game give a fuck about a throne
yo i just need a second chance, i want u for my own
i know i can atone and i promise that I’m honest 
and I’ll never do you wrong

(chorus/hook)

Got a chick in shanghai, she don’t know I, 
know I’m too fly, arrogant american, you say hi
whole world, hoe world 
old girl cry, new girl try
spit game smooth, “yo it’s only you and I”
we only human, why 
i don't show love, but she seeing cupid try?
so it's either do or die
fuck the game, go in, she don't shame my sins
and you never know love till that pain begins
What a shame it is. What a shame it is.

(chorus/hook)

Lyrics
(chorus/hook)
If you wanna find love, keep your eyes up
Never care about what they say
If you wanna rise up, keep your mind up
Never let them go and stop your way

See Jet was fly as fuck, but Aaliyah never noticed
Me and my yellow brothers, we always been the lowest
See the women, oh they talk about the finest yellow lotus
But as men we never noticed, so the weight up on my shoulders 
Like tho I got a crush, but What a shame I never told her
Cos who'd ever thought, any girl would like me sober
To my brother, Keep your head up see the fight is never over
Don't believe in what they told ya
She wanna see my cobra?
put your ass into a coma, Baby know that I'm a soldier
I would die for u, Ride for you, no question that's what I would do
No stressin, I would lie for you
No limit to what I could do
No kidding, they paint me as a villain 
But I paint another vision
 and the pain is all that's missing
Now I'm sipping on a mission
Tryna get another kiss in
I don't follow premonitions
In her pussy I been spittin, Fuck you dissing
don't really give a listen
Plain and simple y'all trippin


(chorus/hook)


See i got a lot of doubts with the way that we portrayed
I'll never be American the way that I was made
First crush I ever had I was in the seventh grade
Never thought that maybe Allison would wanna see my wang
Fuck a passive little nerd, nah I'll never be the same
Why i cheated on my ex? cos she didn't wanna bang
All these girl to entertain, smooth talking with my slang
Thinking Ima make a change, in the way that we displayed
But there's no love up in the game
Only trouble to my name
And all these numbers, broken rubbers
can't remember what's her name?
Leaving Coco, no Yoko, Late November in the rain
But passion quickly fade, and December quickly came
And I was back up to my ways
Running back into the maze
Thinking back into the days
When I was whack and had no game
don't act like you amazed
When the fact is that a dame 
give you status, give you joy
I was mad I'd never had it, as a boy
Automatic paranoid
But now I'm at it and oh boy
We fucking had it, been annoyed
The hate I can't avoid 
So I'm tryna fill a void
From the evil, see my ego been destroyed 
Tell my boys

(chorus/hook)

Lyrics:
(what’s going on man? What’s happening? 
I know you got a lot on your mind. Let’s go)


I’m chilling at the crib, blowing on a bliz
Got one day off then back to the biz
Capitalist thoughts affect how we live
But they don't pay us workers, 
enough to go purchase
The product so worthless,
I cursed it, but how fucking perfect
I still need a dollar. 
Worked 12 long hours so I’m sweating in my collar,
Cooking up a plate for a big bad baller,
But i'm still good, still could 
get trapped into thinking
dollar bills would save a sinking ship?
She bites her bottom lip
See i gotta work a night shift.
Wanna see what life is 
so i light this, then i write this
put my whole heart where the mic is.
What’s righteous? Is it right if,
We work for thieves at the top.
Like please can it stop, 
no breeze when it’s hot
But keep your head up
Even when the road seems long
Like you can’t go on
Never let up. People seemingly fed up
Bout time we get up. 
So let the beat bang if you vibe with this.
And maybe, baby 
we could take a ride to this.
Been 8 long days, just to make more pay
No salary but hourly suitable
least I got a girl that's beautiful
And she know. We know
Love live deep within the struggle.
You people in a bubble. 
Try to liberate the people?
That get you into trouble.
People chanting in the streets.
No justice, no peace.
The ground below my feet
But the sky I never reach.
So I’m riding on these beats
(so I’m riding on these beats)
(yo, like, you gotta reach for what you want.
I feel you man. Just keep pushing.
Looking for that freedom.)

Lyrics:
(“Go back to China! Go back to China. 
Get out of my face! You get out of my face! You fucking chink...”)


(chorus/hook)
they tell me go back where you came from
but these people they don’t know my name
you know we all go see same sun
even if we go back where we came 
(even if we back where we came from)
(even if we go back)


I put a lot of work in with the hope i be distinguished
these cats all surprised that i even speak english
i color out the lines so you know that we in this
i been this, you been that, been sick but not whack, 
dig in to my roots when i write
don't believe in the hype, take the lead on the mic
if i speak complete, no feats are weak
i wanna walk the talk with my feet, i speak
put my hands in the soil where my people bleed
we don't wanna wake up to another sad morning
if i could cop a whip, you know it’d be mad foreign
rather take a trip, your flight is now boarding
I’m bored of these hoards that record for the main stream 
i came from america, alienate an asian who blazing 
no model character
there’s people struggling who see the true cause
life moving quick, no time to catch paws
life full of tricks, i see the true Oz
wanna make it out alive, don’t follow no mirage
im working on the flaws, respect that and pause 

(chorus/hook)

See i came from the bridge, growing pains in the bridge
where cats will take aim, and shame how you live
blood and veins in the bridge
but it seemed my people never really came from the bridge
my culture, i’ll coach ya
We tryna maintain how to live
so i'm about to go peace…(where you going?) 
right back to the East
if for only ONE reason, to be back with my peeps
where TWO USD cop a feast in the streets
and people throw bones, trash, talk, smoke, eat in the streets
you could peep how we eat
but that’s just food for thought. 
See I can’t get caught brainwashed and bought, 
chains off we brought to assimilation nation
working these long days, while the bank account wasting
for certain people, hurting while working at dream chasing
my fam in this land for four generations
more liberation, self determination, more innovation
bringing it back to basics
fear, you must face it
life, you can’t waste it
dream, you gotta chase it
that’s basic

(chorus/hook)

what do you know? where will you roam?
we all traveling off in the zone
