(Chorus)
Life so amazing, every day maintain
I got some new fresh ways, make ya neck start to shake
Keep some old heads mad with the way that I slay
year08 chosen boy, number one in the game, ok

(Verse)
How does it feel to know I don't give a fuck
About anything you try to make me wanna switch up
Drama filled hate got me laughing in love
I'm in love with the way that they hug on my nuts
If I was a junkie who did nothing but bitch
And always staying mad cause 08 captain of ship
Ha, I'd probably just end my shit
Hate me now, hate me later, look I got 'em all bent
I will never understand how ya own people act
When ya purpose is to shine and you pro with the raps
Don't want my ass to win because they never did
Main reason, keep me driven, bitch I'm heaven sent
Nothing but against me could ever change
The fact I am the goat with how I spit this mane
Real rap in my body, spit that down south slang
My future looking bright, others looking so gray 

(Outro)
Now see, that is how you really fucking rap
I just wrote seven songs back to back last night 
And I ain't even tripping over it
You know, I do this shit like it's nothing
Haha, oh
It's that Y-E-A-R, 08, baby
The hottest white boy on the mic
Uh, don't want a problem, want a fight
Huh, haha

Listen, they sweating us for no apparent reason
They on our dick cause they see us with a little bit of something

TWISTED MEASURES

PROD. BY KEIRY

LYRICS:
(Intro)
When are they gonna figure out you cannot fake energy
Cause the same ones, opinionating and criticizing what you doing
While you minding yo own business, can't do what you do
Bro, my mind is blown
You would have just thought someone told me the sky was blue and I'm seeing it for the first time
Cause, haha, what the fuck
Your energetic presence is so disturbing to people
Because, you don't subscribe to their fallacies
You don't subscribe to the energetic constructs that we create within society
You don't allow people to opinionate themselves on you
It's not constructive criticism cause they don't give a fuck about you
But they have something to say about you cause your energy is undeniable
What you're doing is undeniable
And this is why chosen souls cannot win without losing
Cause even though you've won the war
These muthafuckas is still gon' come battle yo frequency
They're gonna opinionate themselves and criticize and judge what you do
And watch what you do, cause everything you do is on ten because of your energy
Everything you do is magnified because of who you are
What you represent, what you bring to the table
But I also need you to understand 
That it wouldn't be any other way, without this god body energy within your being

(Chorus)
I reside in the house of pain
Not a soul left around could ever really relate
To the way I cause damage, nothing new to me
They eyes glued, locked on the trust being

(Verse)
Found a different route, ways to cope with the torture
If this was the army, I ain't following orders
Suck my dick, run away and go throw a fit
With the way I stack tracks, good riddance, I'm sick
Lying rap pretending niggas, act like toddlers
Never pay no mind to the bullshit rah rah
My brain prepared for war, stress about notta
In the end, don't think I won't win, cause bitch I gotta
year08, ha, is ready for whatever
Dummy must have never heard, gets worse before it's better
Oh, you get me jack?
See me out muthafucka, take three steps back
Sometimes, I sit and think
Damn, why so many wanna front on me?
The ones that fake everything get all the love
The ones that stay driven, real, the type to get shunned
Oh well, nothing stumbling from
I got some ultra rare, powerful, muthafuckin guts
And a vision that could change the path
Change the landscape of what it means to rap
With each and every single song apart of that
Tryna step on up, instantly make you tap

What you say nigga?
Fuck you nigga
Bitch, yo ass so ugly
You look like a extraterrestrial bitch
From the milky way galaxy, god muthafuckin damn

(Chorus)
Can't change, can't break, don't underestimate
I'm patient, in this hip hop though, I gotta break
Ain't nothing ever ending this, I'm outer space
Keep on spitting, follow, listen how I do my thing

(Verse)
3, 2, 1
Here I go with the verse
08 laugh at everything cause I been through worse
I could never give a fuck, not anymore, doesn't hurt
Busy ruling earth with these masterpiece words
I ghost write for five hundred, hit my phone, what you need
With this real shit, top dawg, 08 hip hop king
Every bar hitting sound like bling, bling bling
Bow down pussy niggas, let you kiss my ring
Unlike so many, I don't do it for fame
I don't do it for plays, you understand what I say?
Don't ever for a second get that shit confused
08 nothing like the rest, not him, nor you
I'm the one, give pussy fake rappers hip hop blues
I got everything to gain but I got nothing to lose
So, stay in ya feelings cause I'm winning
Nothing that you manage to do could make me finish
A muthafuckin thing cause I'm here forever
And nobody better, ho just give me my medals
And all the plaques that is rightfully mine
Every time that I drop, doing nothing but rise
Up, up, up, cause that's where I'll be
What these clones dealing with, white boy philosophy
Missing link that connects all the chains
And I'm booming like a rocket, bet it's bitter, the taste
The taste of 08 having any success
They breaking they necks to try and make me rest
Opposition know that they can suck my dick, lick my nads
I ain't worried 'bout the future, cause I lived through my past

Don't care, don't care, don't care
Still don't care
I don't care, I don't

What you say?
I just wanna know what you said
What did you say?

Yeah, it's that muthafuckin white boy, oh
Life so amazing ain't it?
Every day I stay fucking happy
And can't nobody ever stop this shit

(Chorus)
Jesus walked this world and was harassed by many
If I make it through this, breaking ground, new history
Not a muthafucka like me, so enlightened and pretty
Nothing ever barring this, snapping hard, 08 gritty

(Verse)
Forces using powers that the eyes can't see
If you getting tested, soul the opposite weak
Remain calm, never fear what the fuck can't beat
Mindset, if you chosen, can't beat it, then bleak
They gon' find out quick, what you with
Conjure ways to stay strong or will not become shit
Like a quiz, this life we lead, is nothing but a test
Gonna let these pussies swallow you or stand on what you said
Do not care about the rest, I'm different bred
Fuck, different breed, spit the raw straight out my head
Can't nobody sit with me, writing out my master plan
With Hip-Hop deadly poet and I'm also the man
Add a E to the end cause I'm from the south
Speaking on my name, ugly niggas better watch they mouth
I approach, quiet like a mouse
Within a second, have yo' bitch taking off her blouse
Knowing damn well good why they picked this play
Want me gone, but in a grave, no I never will lay
Say it like I said before, once again, here to stay
New new on the stove, cooking up like some yay, aye

(Outro)
I am the most prolific of all time
I am the best in the world
I am the only one doing this shit quite like this
They want me gone so bad and they ain't never gon' get it
Never, never, never, never, ever, ever, ever

Life is good though
I want ya'll to see that life is great
Um, your life is great too
Have a good time man, have some fun
Having fun is ok
Um, get some love in your life
Whether that be, another person or just loving yourself man
Love is good, spread love
It's that year08
The one yo girlfriend wanna date
Ahaha, oh

(Chorus)
Pay attention how I break this set
These other rappers trash, lyrically in debt
Between 08 and the rest, who will win, place a bet
Eternal, I will shine, fuck the talk cause I'm next

(Verse)
Spitting raw raps come easy to me
I was born the top dog, always attacked by these fleas
Yeah they hate, yeah they hate, cause 08 K-I-N-G
Slow ride, super smooth, is how I creep on the beat
Put you deep inside a trance with all these bars of mine
Tell the truth when I speak, no reason to lie
Uh, damn, year08 keep 'em wishing
They could knock me out my spot
But I'm posted, working, chilling
Many reasons why'd they paint me as the villain
Oh well, guess in the stu' is where I'm living
Because, my veins laced with the goats
Why so many, many wish I was a ghost
But nope, sadly for them, I'm here to stay
They don't like me, won't participate, the games they play
When it's finally set and over, you will remember my name
Promise, yeah I promise, deliver heat, make 'em wake

(Outro)
Spiritually, intellectually, professionally
Whatever the fuck, it doesn't matter, I'm just the greatest
Just simply put, you niggas can't fuck with this
You can't touch this, can't match this, can't ever compare
You understand me?

Oh, and it's forever and ever

We trading war stories
We outlaws on the rise
Jealous niggas I despise, look in my eyes
We trading war stories
We outlaws on the rise
Jealous niggas I despise, look in my eyes

(Chorus)
Chopping beats like the cartel, wait
They tried still lost
All the years spent tryna stop what I make
Wake up, can't exist without the word create
Destiny is Hip-Hop, give a fuck what they say

(Verse)
Could you survive the community actions
Police placing bugs with the goal of tapping
Watching movements, early stages, it begins, harassment
Even got the neighbors playing parts with the acting
Simply said, want my ass locked up or dead
Good thing not shit could ever really take my head
Knowing for a fact I got 'em scared to death
Bring it on, how many times I gotta say I'm the best
Before eventually, they start realizing
year08 is the one that will never stop trying
Suppose this happens, who don't fall into place
Should reject the live they feed
Control ya self at the end of the day
Fight back with the power of strength
Peace is vital but to get it, gotta show 'em the hate
I proceed, shove it right in they face
God gave me the light is why they looking so strange
Once I reach the top, swear on my life I'll stay
Underground, grind hard, come and fuck with me

Listen, I know there's only seven wonders of the world
But I think I may have just found the eighth

(Chorus)
Baby I'm a national treasure
08 destroy mics like no one ever
Before, after, ha, not now, not never
Could anyone copy this, demonstrate I'm better

(Verse 1)
Mane, if big and pac could see me now
Be like damn, that white boi, storm shakur can lay it down
When I make the masses mad, know they smile and proud
Real Hip-Hop playas gonna fuck with the sound
So bop ya head, light the smoke, clear out
Everything that's a bother, just enjoy, spin around
Competition can't match, they ask they self like how
08 one man army, walk around like a thou'

(Break)
When it comes to me muthafucka, you better be ready
Cause I promise you ain't prepared for what's inside of me
On this shit I kill it 
And there ain't nothing in the world that could ever change that
You feel me, 08 baby

(Verse 2)
Come right back in, I'm not done yet
When I hit record, knowing jealous bitches upset
Oh, I get my skill from the legends
Everything I learned was apart of the lesson
Soak it all in, before my birth, rap rearranged
The inside of my muthafuckin brain
I was sent here to come and rule the new day
Be the last man standing with my foot on ya grave
Thanking god for the struggle
My life a long tale of determination and hustle
Get it how you live builds up them muscles
Can't nobody tell me shit, when I speak, verbal thunder
If you haven't started yet, my suggestion is you panic
Goth hoes want me, say I look like Charles Manson
Turn that garbage off, do not care 'bout what you jammin'
Only play 08 on loop, smackdown, I'm slammin'

(Outro)
If I had to talk about what I've done for this shit
For Hip-Hop, for the art, for every muthafuckin thing
I'd be here forever and ever and ever
But oh wait
I am and I guess I will

https://elasticstage.com/year08shop

LYRICS:
(Intro)
You kill egos, with the power that you have internally
Cause muthafuckas didn't think power could look as peaceful as you make it
And this is why they need aggression when fucking with you
This is why they have to overcompensate in those areas
In order to feel adequate towards you
Cause these individuals have never had any mental capacity 
To be able to hold themselves to a high standard
When it comes to their own emotional intelligence
So they revert to utilizing their physical dominance to prove how powerful they are
When real power comes from within
See cause muthafuckas wanna be the cane corso
But they embody the energies of the chihuahua
They try to intimidate you with their bark
Cause they understand that bite ain't gon' do shit
But you really are the cane corso
You sit back and let a muthafucka think they doing whatever they doing
Until they overstep that boundary
Then you snap 'em and bite 'em like the cane corso you are

(Chorus)
Imagine walking in my shoes
You could never understand what it takes to make these moves
So I'm flexing with a passion
Knock the beats, just shoo
Make ya people part lie Moses when I arrive in the room

(Verse)
Some would probably call me deranged
The same would probably call if I blew up today
No matter, ok
Feeling better than great
On the mic, cooking up, like I never have ate
Uh, it's really all the same to a g
My rapping power strong, not something can beat
Identify 08, what the fuck do you see?
I see a pale white boy, genius, come for ya seat
Oh, ha, how that sound?
Keep a smile on my face, with god, I never will drown
Caught tongue kissing death, 08 still made it out
Half dead, half alive, always managing well
