Bona Fide (feat. David & Malik)

Looking around for some inspiration
Back in the day I could do it with no hesitation, but
Nowadays it's kind of hard when you lack motivation
And you're not licensed, can't get a move on with no transportation
I'm on my way to achieve what I need in my life
I had to wait for the stars to align to know when times right
I'll be satisfied when my breads thick
Can't let too many people in cause the plank will break like a breadstick

This shit is complimentary
But if the shit is wack don't text back and start to false compliment me
Let me know and let me grow into the best I can be
Don't let me drive the hooptie when I could be in a Camry
Don't say the bar is hella sweet like some candy
Cause honestly your honesty could really come in handy
I got the data call that LTE
If you a fan cool I don't care who the hell see me

Listen to the diamonds glisten while we reminiscing
I'm cool with duos but other than that I can keep my distance
Real rap shit, who is even touching me
Hold it down with the cuffs and put the beats into custody
I don't boogie board but I boogie when I'm bored
Let me fly, but lately I've been feeling sore, tryna sore
I talk about my future like it's just about to happen
Get smacked by a Stray hand and now my teeth is gapping

That's the sense getting knocked back in me
We asked for a quarterback and he gave back fifty
I'm coming at you relax I'm not as fast as two seam
Got the water wanted the coffee with sugar two cream
Don't be jelly that I'm toasting all the competition
Flow like rivers and steady streaming the songs I've written
Drink your water, eat your vitamins, and say your prayers
You'll get an invitation to the gates I hope you make it there

We're just some mother fucking kids, sharp with the wit and shopping at lids
Ignoring popular trends and getting power from wind
Getting by in the end and ended up deep in debt
Working our asses off for degrees that won't reap a cent
Yeah that'll leave a dent, when you're two faced like Harvey
You better back it up like Robin Williams did in RV
You wanna push me man, then you're crazy as sniffing sharpies
I'm just out here tryna be happy like Bob Marley

I took seven months off from writing
So if I'm sounding rusty then trust me I'm feeling frightened
Dip my toes in the water I'm fricking kicking Poseidon
Stomping on top of otters and skipping straight to an island
I'm sick of listening to Biden, Trump and Kamala lying
I'd rather hear Kanye lecture on morals and where to find 'em
I keep getting tickets for speeding and see they fined 'em
Out on 94 doing 90 or more behind him

I'm Mario Andretti moving at deadly velocities
James Dean's baby and crazy is the philosophy
I'm balanced if you drop the space and off with the apostrophe
I'm salad if you toss the green and LA lost its properties
Man honestly, I'm sicker than expired cottage cheese
Your honor please, I didn't mean to speed, shit, my apologies
Every time it's points off of my license that they offer me
Obviously they're in it for the green, just like golfers be

That's on tee like my father's sister, a bumpy road like you've got a blister
A younger soul, never call me mister, got bite, nip at fingers, like tittie twisters
Whoa, the flower child arose
And if I was born in the 80's I'd have a De La Soul
But I just play my role, as the introverted extrovert
The second verse, the secular, but blessed whenever Trevor works
My shits molecular, every aspect investigated
What I write's the law, the pressures on for who's affidavit

Hold up can I get in my bag again
People been asking when I'm gone rap again
And I'm not saying that I'm really back again
But lately this break feeling like an accident
But in real life if you don't break then there's an accident
I'm about to put my eggs in a basket
I'm just praying I don't gotta put none of my friends in a casket
When I finally get that Benz I don't crash it

Had a vision but without the lens I can't craft it
Imagine me asking for money that's funny because my words everlasting
So when I think about it it gets said in the past tense
Timeless, watch how I'm shining
You could go back in time and see I been grinding
If I say it well could I be like Dave Chappelle
Only come perform when my paper getting stale
Might go hit a lick I'm putting everything for sale

Any extra money probably use it for my bail
Got outta pocket now I'm into my bag
I thought I lost it but I'm getting it back
A couple people probably think that I'm wack
But see my name, now they clicking on that
They not haters I like to think that they fans, I need to stick to the plan
I just wanna drip and look clean too
I wish I could say that this just the preview
But I'm only doing features like I'm Andre 3k

I'll come back for 3 days, that is just how we play
Come in with no practice they still put on replay
Do it for a living I still do it in my sleep
Claim you want it so bad you still moving like a sheep
Follow the trendsetters, but dog I been better
So even if you a ten I'm still like ten better
Flow so cold i'mma need like ten sweaters
Rap so well I should get a band per ten letters
