Waste Ur Time (Original)

Written, produced, mixed and mastered by Chris Scalco.

been a long time coming since i started off
on my grind just writing rhymes for ten plus years and I'm finally taking off
write it then recite it, then record it then produce it
then i mix it and i master it and release it to you
and if I'm honest it’s exhausting but there’s nothing I’d prefer
this is my purpose so I’m working to perfect every single word
I don’t mean to be so heavy but it’s everything i want
and since everything i have, feeling like i can’t be stopped
I do it on my own
I’mma do it on my own
cuz I’m grown

you know I gotta elevate, elevate, elevate
you know you gotta elevate, elevate, elevate

gotta get my mind right
make sure the time is right
but the time is always right
to go for what you want in life

elevate, elevate, elevate

it’s been three years since that first EP
used to pay to play, now they pay to see me
gave up waiting tables to commit to the grind
I’ll take a pay cut just to get peace of mind
everybody’s in my corner, wanna see me hit the top
and I will not let you down, cuz I cannot ever stop
Hot 100, here I’m coming, I’mma get a Grammy too
for my mother and my brothers, cuz you’ve shown me the way through

couple brews just to keep me honest
little weed just to see beyond it
no escaping it’s just the opposite
elevate to a higher consciousness
affirmations for wealth and confidence
meditation to keep me grounded with
gratitude for all my accomplishments
gotta do what I set out to then

Elevate

Elevate

Made in 24 hours. Call me Vlade from the three.

Vlade Divac

Created in 24 hours from start to release. Written, produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by yours truly. Lyrics below:

If this is all predestined how much control do I have?
Am I lost in the matrix or am I right on my path?
I’m tryna exercise patience cuz this is a marathon
But every day that goes by reminds me I haven’t blown

I get so lost in my feelings
Like I have no control
Cuz in those moments I don’t
I try to do it on my own
But I can’t
My loneliness is killing me
Some days I just wanna talk to God

But I ain’t prayed in months
So I get no answer
I’m just asking questions
Never look for the answers
Wish for a quicker solution
That doesn’t push me too hard
Instead of doing my reps
I sit here looking at God

Waiting for your call
But you don’t ever call
I don’t know what you want from me
Cuz you won’t let me know
Who do I have to be?
For you to have some respect for me?
I don’t know where to go

Another “woe is me” story, you ain’t got the time
I mean the bottom line is
We should’ve been crossed the t’s and dotted the I’s
I didn’t take the time, I’m tryna make it right
Tryna find a rhyme that’s not about this but it’s always on my mind
So it’s all I write
Even thought about a dotted line and almost tried to sign
But I got a sign and made peace with the fact that I got it right
The first time and I can’t go back
I ain’t trying to live my life with regrets like that
AIn’t tryna live in the past, and it’s been so long
Honestly I couldn’t tell you why I still hold on
Finding peace with the way that I left it, I know in the present it’s not so much pain
But I vent and lament on the mess that I made
It’s so hard to forgive myself, I relive my mistakes every day
While I wait

Waiting for your call
But you don’t ever call
I don’t know what you want from me
Cuz you won’t let me know
Who do I have to be?
For you to have some respect for me?
I don’t know where to go

Waiting
