Rain

And we on today
And we on today

And we on today
You know it rains down, I'm gone away
Gotta hurry up now, that's ándale
That's ándale

And we on today
You know it rains down, I'm gone away
Gotta hurry up now, that's ándale
When the clock slows down, that's ándale

Came back to life
Came to raise the bar, so I grabbed the mic
You just want to move on, when the timing's right
If you livin' for tomorrow, then you'll miss tonight
Got the time in my bag, I'm a prospect
Livin' out a vision, and we isn't even on yet
Not a proper sentence, but I'm sensin' that you complex
Now I'm truly sentenced to a future, I will complex
Con-fess-fess-fess-fess, my sins away
Play the beat, backwards, and drift away
Walkin' on matches, not today
Settin' fire to the ashes, feel the pain

And I can't complain
Set sail and we coastin', still deranged
'Cause' I can only hope, and turn the page
The book ain't even wrote, yet must remain
Only thoughts will provoke him
Goes in, when he's soaked in
Holy water, for the bath, don't hold your nose, then
Only holdin' back, pop the tab, now he's floatin'
Dreams are livin' sad in his head, never spoken
And I came to get a strap, like a backpack, hashtag
Mix-tape finished, where the strap at?
Mixin' in the fact that my tape had the last laugh
Pressin' up a thousand, throwin' that in a knapsack
Took a nap, then it's time to rap back
Tired of the ones, who don't snap, but still rap
Tired of the lovers, thrown back, but still whack
I've heard it all, enough, made a track, go kill, snap

Back to reality, cope with this salary
Nope, they don't doubt on me
Hope they look down on me
Hold, that's a tragedy
Climbin' up to the valley's peak, one step away
You lookin' down and that's a casualty

And we on today
You know it rains down, I'm gone away
Gotta hurry up now that's ándale
When the clock slows down that's on delay

And we on today
You know it rains down, I'm gone away
Gotta hurry up now, that's ándale
When the clock slows down, that's on delay

And okay
Lookin' back now and it's okay
Never back down, it's what they gon' say
Come on, rap now with it all day

But the time flies by, when you don't think
Got it locked down through the hallway
Got it locked down, we on our way
To the top now, what you gon' say?
When the drop so close, but the goal ain't
In the mindset, started out music over everything

Then, you wouldn't leave my head
Infatuated thoughts got me thinkin' about a life
Wanting everything, even shit that wasn't said
'Cause when the rain come down and the lights don't shine
I'ma still want you, you can take your time
When I take that road, when I walk that line
When I'm searching for a back, you can take mine, mine
Go and take it back, heard enough of that
Went to get it back, wouldn't last
Where the love was at?
Tried to double-back, fumble that
Shit was so sad, was it love at last?
Di-di-didn't think of that, whoa

Took a back road where the time would go
When I spent it all alone with the rhythm and the flow
But my mind wasn't gold and the twine was your soul
Couldn't find nothin' mo', I'm confined 'til I'm old
That's old soul, that's old school
You the new age, that's not cool
Turn a new page, make new rules
Fuck the old ways, just do you
Livin' life 'til the days turn dark
Trapped between the walls of today and tomorrow
Wish tomorrow was today, but tomorrow never came
Guess I'm really all alone, time to turn the other page

Flip it back, where it all began
Just a kid, 13, with a pen in his hand
He put the words on the page, yeah, he wrote for days
But the days turned to hours when it all became
Turned the cold to rain, turned the coal to flames
Turned the dream to fame, yeah, it's all the same
If anybody wanna get it, we gon' give it like that
'Cause you know, it rains down when we givin' you the track

And we on today
You know it rains down, I'm gone away
Gotta hurry up now, that's ándale
When the clock slows down, that's on delay

And we on today
You know it rains down, I'm gone away
Gotta hurry up now, that's ándale
When the clock slows down, that's on delay

And okay
And okay
