Late Night

Stay Alive

Make It Big

No Frauds


I don't need no frauds
I don't need no fake niggaz in my squad 
I don't need no jehovah witness at my door 
I don't you always standing, I don't trust y'all 
I ain't in no phase
I don't need no, y'all get me outta shape 
I don't need no war with u but u hate me
I'm on the verge, contemplating going hard  

Hook
Y'all people got nerve, to call me bro, 
You see me ball before u see me crawl 
Y'all niggaz got nerve to call me bro 
You see me ball before u see me crawl 



I don't need no fraud 
Wrote this cos I was bored 
Chilling in my drawls
All alone, freestyling, jotting lines, 
High in my zone nuthin can go wrong 
I must confess got a lot of things to take care of
Couple bills open, quite a lot to pay for 
It ain't easy when u down and out of favors 
Bet nuthin shake or phase u when u're born in Lagos 
These eyes 'll testify about the horrors they saw 
I would tell but, I'm not allowed to say more
The money come the money go, it's never stable
Here it go, the same ol fable 
It may be something u and I relate to 
Why I think about all this, 
Know nuthin changed in the streets 
Still gotta worry about the police 
Been a villain cos of melanin my skin color is the crime 
Ain't nuthin so appealing when u know they rather see u go to prison just to do time
Exploitation, in real time
Modern day slavery 
Mass incarceration of the fickle minded 
Mother Mary please pray for me
Tell me where its safe for me? 
What more can they take from me? 
They tried taming and try invaded and violated my pedigree 
I see why you take me now for the enemy
I fear how, mistaken by my identity 
They try cut the trees down
Instead of cutting the fees down 
Four hundred years plus, suddenly I'm posed to be free now but..



I don't need no fraud
rodents in my kitchen store
Foes who'd rather see me crawl
And y'all haters, I swear to god

Hook
Y'all niggaz got nerves to call me bro
U see me ball before u see me crawl 
Y'all niggaz got nerves to call me bro
U say you grown yet act so immature 



I don't know fraud..No 
I don't need no trout.. no no no
I don't need ur awards too
I swear that ain't what God do
I don't need no liars, no biased, one sided, closed minded, 
blinded by their own pride kinda mindset 
No allegiance pledged with ties who conspire to get on my neck 
Gimmie couple pliars, let me come and dissect before I digest, 
yes I said that 
I dont need yo broads, I got enough
Either talking or we hanging up
It's so much drama just to burst a nut
And niggaz snitchin for the same reasons they don't stay in touch,now what's the fuss about? if u feeling this, why u gotta doubt? 
Picture perfect, 
rats and roaches crawl on the carpet 
Mama stash the cash under the mattress 
No one knew we'll make it out the projects 
Now the plot is make it somewhere foreign 
And I notice ain't nobody owe me nothing  
Fair enough they never saw me coming,
But they gotta love it
heard the winter coming, got the heater on me and a lady waiting for me at the barn ( how long? )
How long will I make her wait, till I finish what I begun? ( how long )
Apollo helios, burning 
gotta a problem, I resolve em
From Orile down to Berlin 
I and I keep evolving 
I ain't perfect, but I'm certain I absorb higher learning 
Now the music I recorded make em wan come meet the person 
I may be late to appointment, still, they know I never disappoint them
Guess it means a brother got anointing 
Point them out

Lyrics

Verse 1

I see you and it’s all so revealing 
aww what a feeling 
patiently waiting for someone with your kinda patience 
so much depth you posses, I can dig our conversations 
sailing on that special trip, on a ship I call relations 
I’m so glad we made it up to this with no complications 
like, communication show cooperation 
plus, you put in work to make it right, like an occupation 
a foundation built upon the purest form of being true
in other words, be you is beautiful
look, you read me like a book, you caught me like a hook 
you stole my heart, you’re something like a crook 
I never thought for once that I’d be flattered by your looks
but from how it looks, a smile is all it took
and now you’re like the queen 
and I'm standing like your duke 
letting you rule my world like I could

Hook

If you are like the sun, you re like my god
you are like air that I breath
If u inspire thoughts, you would be my voice 
you will be the song that I sing
and forever young, when the morning comes
you will be the one that I see
since I made my choice a, you’re my number one
the only one for me, ay
The one for me ay

Verse 2 

What started as a mere casual friendship, 
in no time turned into a courtship 
strangers like we come from different planets 
drawn by the force of attraction like a magnet
stranded in this time,minds are like a kind, so we think alike 
illuminate our darkest fears like it need a light 
and when you’re close to me, 
I can feel the soul in me
see, if this is magic then the spell is like L O V E
A laundry with your underwear from C&A 
shows my crib got your fingerprints and DNA
I wonder what you see in me that’ll make you leave LA
But I can careless, as long as I stay fearless
How I lust for your touch
got this craving babe so I yearn 
so much passion when we loving make me burn
even from your silence I can learn 
you’re my concern 

Hook﻿

Lyrics

Hook

Riding on the sound wave cruising through the galaxy 
waves of emotion, waves of devotion 
Riding on the sound wave cruising through the galaxy
waves of emotion keeping me in motion 

Deebo Verse

It was forth of July nineteen ninety three 
I was young going to school living wild and free
when u came back from wherever you had to be
it was all good but you just could not see
you left a seed homie and now you're getting a tree
That means you get a family and not just me
Think about it men its simple like Abc
Guess it was too hard for you to go from I to we
now you lost the key to open up the door to me 
now we strangers the reason why we do not see
tried to call you on the phone but I could not speak 
Very sorry cos I know what I'm doing is making you sick 
And I remember the days, week for week

Hook

Riding on the sound wave cruising through the galaxy 
waves of emotion, waves of devotion 
Riding on the sound wave cruising through the galaxy
waves of emotion keeping me in motion 

Bridge

Out of the darkness into the light conquer the day get to the night 
Be the dog thats ready to bite, when dem wan come step on your rights
Show dem that we ready to fight we don't give a fuck black or white 
We're united and we got a might, just lost world looking for life 

Rah Verse

It sounded like, kinda like a Friday night 
end of week, trying break the night 
Take a break, I think I've earned the right 
roll a doobie, burn it right 
Gotta recognise life's like a battle sometimes, every day hassle,
between caught in the devil's lasso and tryina live inside castle 
Yes we fight because we have to, 
survival instinct to adapt to situations 
the constellation, never lacking motivation
meaning, anything we indulge in emerge to be amazing 
maybe cos we're a special being or maybe cos of education 
We gave birth to a system that calls for full cooperation 
maximum concentration, hard work, will and dedication 
Yet rely on politicians who represent corporations 
who build and pollute our nations and get us hooked on medications 
Uh uh!
Where we go to? don't nobody know
where we come from? don't nobody know
Naive to believe we're the only ones in the universe, living under the sun
As the earth spins and the clock ticks, 
countdown to Armageddon whether zion or babylon,
it don't matter where, memory is what we become
As for me I wanna be free, I wanna be there in broad light 
I wanna be seen, I wanna be heard, yeah I belong in the spot light 
wanna see what the worlds like, wanna feel what loves like 
with a family that'll add to my blood line 

Hook/ Bridge
