Verse 1

Ooh daddy whats that smell? Somehow familiar 
like it rang a bell through your closed door, the sinsemilla Now serendipitous hitting the L 
cache my seashell ashtray has a wealth of memorabilia 
I could create mythical tales but why over embellish 
when life could shit on you rain some sort of hell 
with no umbrellas Pick from poisons they sell us 
they rather recognize for my pain 
Instead of saying "tell us your name, Chief" 
I smoke that bomb diggidy bomb bomb diggidy bang problems fizzle away bong ripple ghetto champaign 
A toast to those who battle and brave the scattered cliches it's cool to stand for nothing, we all outta space 
I still communicate with OG by Muhammad's Mosque 
He rocks with his toothbrush rubber band tied round his sock We share being aware and how to take the bare min 
in a mere millisec, could clear pinpoint project

Chorus
Could say I don't give a shhh But I'd be lying 
We actin like its fly, half of us is dying 
We justify this world we live in where pockets hurt 
But I got something to give em so watch and learn 
Could say I don't give a shhh But I'd be lying 
I'm just trynna live, yal just die trying
Could see why I don't give a mind or my concern
But I got something to give em so watch and learn

Verse 2

They want your background experience with crack now without how your hood became an outhouse for cash cows And my main man whole fam was on crack 
"You can crash at my crib, 
we'll do your homework so you won't get left back" 
They love the ballad of the sad young man, the cine noir 
The rhythm of the night colored white supplied by El Debarge
Prison barges with captives stare into the void 
With no regrets, I ain’t take that package from Coolie Boy
They mad that I ain’t ask and got consignment
With sad eyes they wanna give me the watch retirement 
the sleek streets finish corrodes 
got some entities hanging round they neck 
that ain’t gold, that's his soul 
a wise man hides in the wino that drinks Irish Rose 
the dude abides, cue the sirens, kaleidoscope 
colorblind to green envy not green pastures 
I'll be overseas like an octave or masters

Chorus

You Like to Risk It All/Things Will Never Be

When discussing the contemporary sound of Los Angeles, one would be remiss to omit production duo MIKE & KEYS (formerly The Futuristiks). Known for creating luxurious tapestries of brilliantly composed, surgically precise sonic poetry, it's clear that the duo's proprietary potion can only be achieved by their undeniable chemistry.  

Inspired equally by the synthy G-funk bounce of West Coast icons Dr. Dre & mentor DJ Quik, and the hypnotic, sample-centric production of Hi-Tek & J Dilla, MIKE & KEYS perfect balance of new and nostalgia reaches far beyond the confines of California. The MIKE & KEYS sound is appropriately described by critics as "masterful" and the legendary Redman as "Nineteen Ninety Now." 

The 6x Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum selling Mike & Keys are widely known for executive producing Nipsey Hussle’s Grammy-nominated masterpiece, Victory Lap as well as music with artists including Jay Z, Dr. Dre, Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Dom Kennedy, Dave East and Buddy (amongst many others).
