Fly

I almost died a thousand times
Count the rings around my eyes
I said I was down for the count
I got back up

My alleycat ways got me kickin' into too many different things
Heart in the right place, a side-step and bang
In the club for free, lady tit-tut, break free
Hit hard when I pop, so I'm known by all the OG's
Not that I ain't seen the inside of a jail cell
You know the scenario, ain't no need for no details
Three squares, one cop, surrounded by all cops
Counting down the days 'til I get out the box
Into a sypher, eyes on low, stay on fire
Openin' slow, 'cause my internal blow will burn your whole empire
Medusa hip-hop livewire, that's what I'm here for
That's what the MC's got that go for

Solo espero que el sol salga
Las nubes cubren parte de él
Camino entero
Si golpea mi espalda, indica que todo está bien
La noche pasa y siento, se va a dormir, sí
De día camino a casa, lento
Disfruto de Long Beach

De noche duermo, de día solo sueño
Habitante enfermo vaga en esta gran ciudad sin dueño, yo
Como un sonámbulo, por el mundo diambulo
No habría preámbulos que acabaran con el sueño de alguno
Y yo solo camino, pienso, sueño despierto

Soy alivio, soy incienso
Que aclara el sabor del viento
Tantos días más, tantas noches en la oscuridad
El sol cae y mis raps van al alba
La realidad existe, los sueños se van hoy
Cuánto daría por verte, suerte, dime dónde estás
Tragos amargos, que mi vida amargan
Me siento en calma, say, "One love, playa larga"

I almost died a thousand times
Count the rings around my eyes
I said I was down for the count
I got back up
I told her watch me fly, stars align
I watch them shine, I got back up
Told 'em watch me fly
The stars align, I watch them shine
Just watch me fly

Smile harder, feel the armour, scoop me up and now I'm posted up in Long Beach
Transmitted all around the world, we got that long reach, sage burning
How the Europe fires underground legends from Mexico to Uruguay
Who do I have to talk to get a mic up in this house
Stupendous when I was younger man
I did some other stupid ass, backwards, happy that I'm not in jail
Disappointed family, monumental epic fail
Tails full of sadness turned into happiness
Blessed by my family, gave my friends all my happy mess
Girls in my DM I'm like let me get that ID, miss
Misplaced anger from the past melts away in the Cali' sun

I had a gun then I threw it at the wall
Watch it grow wings and fly away
And that was really all the motivation that I needed
To get even with all of the demons
That always seem to be torturing my dreams

My brother NDU had a brain tumour removed
He still alive though, tryna get back his groove
And survive, go through storms, sometimes he won't make it
Reminds me to treat my life sacred
Body your mind cleansed, not hard to find sand inside of me
Your fam are who you grown to be
Derp done this, still to do, we write a list
Done digging my hole, catch me crawlin' out the bear
Reachin' for all of my goals, within time permits
Sometimes I was blind, eclipse
Now I shine like the sun emits
And God's eyes on the sun of it
Suck on terms that we never gettin'

Viva la vida, screaming puttin' down the heat of the beef
Ends, my street friends fade away
Debt deepens with every last breath I take
I still got things to do, that's great

I almost died a thousand times
Count the rings around my eyes
I said I was down for the count
I got back up
I told her watch me fly, stars align
I watch them shine, I got back up
Told 'em watch me fly
The stars align, I watch them shine
Just watch me fly
