Portraits

Portrait of life
Tracing all the steps
Faded for the night
We can link in LES
Though you more than meets the eye, I'm
Navigating through the stress
Making toast to the ride
Pour it til it's none left

Told her don't switch on me
Switch roles, like a nigga switch flows
Know they gone picture me
Know they gone picture me

Picture me rollin'

Painted my reality
I'm sketching out a dream
Momma had a youngin' as a teen
Father he ain't never been seen
So imma hold it down like i'm posed to
Through the hell we live in life, I took a cold route
How you learn to ball when nobody round to coach you
I'm too player in my bag, call it produce
Stepping in a league of my own, fck the rules and regulations
All I learned in school is how they pimp through education
Sad world we live in it's hard to see
Put my life in the music, the beat the artery
Making threats on social media ain't hard to me, pardon if
My enthusiasm don't match the bullshit presented
Signed a deal and I was hot, I ain't cool with percentage
Screaming out Forever now
More money more problems, Nigga never had shit
One thing I could never settle for is living average
Told my mom the metaphors will have us living lavish
Fck a thread I'm focused on switching up the pattern
Lost in the commotion, I'll find a way to make it happen
That's God willing
Got no time to waste, I gotta make it
Know it's time ticking

Portrait of life
Tracing all the steps
Faded for the night
We can link in LES
Though you more than meets the eye, I'm
Navigating through the stress
Making toast to the ride
Pour it til it's none left

Told her don't switch on me
Switch roles, like a nigga switch flows
Know they gone picture me
Know they gone picture me

Picture me rollin'
