[Verse]
Dear Mona Lisa
Told my mama I can’t fail
Pretty soon I’ll move from here
Far away where you can’t find me
Yeah so long, aint shedding tears
Cause somehow you’re always finding someone else to compare me to them
And you’ll sit and go bout how I’ll always fail, man who cares
Know how long I work for this, to make this here
Plenty weeks of humility, grinding, never sleep
Pedigree, folks they lean on me but cry bout I’m the sheep
Mama please, know how hard I work for this
This is my dream, tell me who I’m supposed to be, 
Told you there aint nothing out there except for me
Fuck a degree, I don’t want your sweets or recipes 
Always come around here, be nagging about what is best for me
You don’t know me like my homies, certainly 
All the things I conceal to myself, that i’d only tell to God or to them
Said that they’re bad influence, about how they spawns from hell
Would you rather having me sitting like my daddy, or rather be a man for myself?
Make decisions for myself, yeah you asked me what I see
See a purpose just for me, bad bitches, pair of D’s
Marble floors, M&Ms, and some treats just for me
All I had to do was make a couple beats
All I had to do was write a line out in cursive
If it’s worth it, then I’ll earn it, for some peace
In the heat, on the beach, or the snow, in poconos, on a ski
Living life like Mona Lisa

[verse]
Boy you’re late, pay your dues, what I’m owed
fuck you pay me
I’ve been taking shit personal, tired of being personable
Niggas be some snakes, gather around for the cake
When at my birthday, nobody showed their face
Seeing fake love everyday, my heart has turned to clay
Tired playing hero, masquerading with a cape
Advice I should’ve saved that I gave, sacrifices in vain
Mistakes I shouldn’t have made, doing small favors is how you dig an early grave
Remember doing things for you when I aint have no change
I stop being a saint, that’ll jog your brain, memories betrayed
Hate to be the villian, but you won’t kill off young kean
No scars left to hide, she see into my eyes, 
“am I fine?”, said of course, but I lied
Put a smile on my face, but inside, I’m uncomfortable
Sick of showing face, move around, I’m unapproachable
Niggas there for what you do, they don’t really fuck with you
Bitches get no minutes, sub em out if they’re uncoachable
Someone had told me that my silence is the loudest
A humbleness about me, say my name in vain
feel the pain of young kean
New york streets, I’m from bucktown, out in queens
Fuck with me, if you feel this story, know it aint just me

[Hook]
Start it all over, so things could stay the same
We started off normal, we like the same things, 
We share the same brain, we share the same dreams
We started off normal, we share the same pains
Start it all over, my heart is still the same
Start it all over, so things could stay the same
Started off normal, we like the same things
Start it all over, to tell you girl I love you
Start it all over, start it all over, start it all over

[Verse]
To tell you that I love you, my heart is still the same
Was scared to fall in love, case you didn’t feel the same
These days it’s hard to trust so I try to avoid the pain
It’s why I made young kean, love aint the same
And it’s fogging up my brain, hope you felt no typa way
She said all men the same, all men the same,
all men the same

its all over (demo)

[Verse]
It’s young kean from the east, wearing jesus on my chest & on my sleeve
Subi jeans, rocking out with yeezy feets
Out in queens, where the sun is shining, stop, inhale the breeze
Way we celebrating life, leave tire marks out on the crete
Popping rocks, tossing molotovs, gunshots in the streets
Whichever fireworks you see cause all that shit the same to me
Where I’m from, hopscotch on daily, tag a square we see
And when it rains, flush that pain away, drain your heart out till it bleeds
And that aint on the news, cuckoo birds over my roof
Looking out the windowsill, reflective strobe lights out the blue
Every night, pray that lifestyle don’t caught up with me too
Cause if I die, I’ma legend from the Q

[Hook]
If I die, know that one day I’ma legend in the sky
If I die, pray my dreams will make it out before my time
If I die, hope that heaven leaves me room when I get by
Cause If I die, I’ma motherfucking legend in the sky

[Bridge]
If I die, know that one day I’ma legend in the sky (yeah)
If I die, hope my dreams will make it out before my time (yeah)

[Verse]
Just copped a car & it’s blacked out
Wildin in with the squad everyday, we some crashouts
Frontside flip your car, broad day, doing wipeouts
Dashing out on foot, find a place, where we crash house
For tonight we camp out
In the streets, where we weep, cost to search our souls for peace
Before I sleep, pray the Lord my soul to keep

[Refrain]
Pray the Lord my soul to keep

[Hook]
If I die, know that one day I’ma legend in the sky
If I die, hope my dreams will make it out before my time
If I die, hope that heaven leaves me room when I get by
Cause If I die, I’ma motherfucking legend in the sky

[Outro]
Legend in the sky, if I die 
Dream before my time
Legend in the sky
Cause If I die, I’ma motherfucking legend in the sky
If I die, pray my dreams will make it out before my time
