For the Record Dirty Remix - Remix

Candles calmly burning
In the darkness before morning
Yet before the table turning
You'll be parting for the journey

And for the record
Its still a crime to be young black entrepreneur minded
Insider out surviving not hurting nobody
Whether not we ask why, we never get to the bottom
Of the age old problem thats common in Deuteronomy
So cops still killing brothers and mothers look to others
To smother a flame burnin forever no love is harder
If common sense never common and voices are getting stronger
Then the futures only getting farther
Another generation influenced by the fornication
Hating, killing, raping, sugar in they tanks, cant take it too far
Everybody comment on raisin a generation
But history just repeatin and we all play a part
And so much time done passed on by
Only God knows why, you alive or daparted
People still takin lives it aint precious fuck up you die
See from the truth we never been farther
Cause its hard to find the truth in this world it's all scattered
He warned us Ecclesiastics and matter fact in our actions
We actors and we put on a mask and it's hard to factor in the facts
Cause the fact of the matter is we ain't askin
Be knowing the truth is hurtin so why put on our backs
We just gotta keep it movin cuz growth is the key to happiness
See rapping is just a path our creativity mastered
They made it hard to make it, but atleast I'll get it started
Nephew and nieces I'll put together these pieces
The puzzle increases size but the difficulty ceases
Over time losses strengthen us we just gotta receive it
Non believers non receivers they influence other heathens
Other people other sheep another bleak seed in a land of misery
But we keep pushin keep goin steep
Is the climb but keep climbing keep sparking the fire
I'll keep it alive and keep flowing harder
Candles calmly burning, candles calmly burning
In the darkness before morning, in the darkness before the morning
Yet before the table turning, before the table was turning
You were parting for the journey, you were parting for the journey

Candles calmly burning, candles calmly burning
In the darkness before morning, in the darkness before morning
Yet before the table turning, before the table turning
You'll be parting for the journey, you were parting for the journey

For the record my verses be cursin
I swear my heart on my sleeve that why to me this music shit's so personal
Half of u mfs here workin, no kind of purposes
Yall remind me of clowns doin cartwheels at the circuses
Police is out here wilin so my head on swivels like a lighthouse
For the record im always good, its never dry out
Honestly im more dirty than secrets in the white house
Im the nicest that u know thats why this mf mic out
Im a God in my skin, more family and less friends
Let's be honest im really movin for record spins
Livin in a time where these kids need they ass beat
It seems the only way to make it is music or become an athlete
Now i be ridin wit chouffers leanin in the backseat
Heard the 5.0 killin nowadays i pray they pass me
Im like big in this bitch went from ashy to classy
When they want the truth dont be confused why they ask me
Skate on em all like im in aspen strapped wit black skis
Who the fuck is dirty thats ya boy who ash trees
Im no harvard grad but just imagine bein forced to fill bags
Wit few sources and still managed to kill that
Just cuz we came from the mud, we gettin labeled a thug, exposed to all kinds of drugs
Shit when i was a kid we fought with our fists, cuz we knew what is was
Checkmate this chessboard im the king twistin a dutch
Its crazy for instance people will sell they soul in minutes
Yellin gang gang but then cryin when they face to face wit a sentence
Screamin they bout that life but switch up when they encounter menaces
Leaving penmanship remnants cuz here we handlin business
Wit a sinister pen which will scribble until its finished
Diminish these tenants im popeye, blunt full of spinach
It costs to view our image this is truly the beginning
Sacrifice for that bottom line i run plenty of clinics

Candles calmly burning, candles calmly burning
In the darkness before morning, in the darkness before morning
Yet before the table turning, before the table turning
You'll be parting for the journey, you were parting for the journey
