O.C.T.

I was looking for them boom bap beat thats for sure
Then the homie V-Sine hit me with a brochure
It was filled from wall to wall with multiple classics
I started drooling in disbelief and said we gotta have it
Well when you say "we" please explain what you mean
I'm talking me Too Tone and the rest of the team
I'm talking me, Brady, my brother and his baby
Can't forget Lucas you see where your words take me
JB said I had it that I'm powerful and maybe
Plus my whole family probably thinking that I'm crazy
I wish my Gab could see us now she practically raised me
The day she died I cried and realized that I gotta take these
Moments by the horns or it's me that I'll scorn
Envision me alive at 50 yet it's me that I mourn
Waking up every morn ignoring why I was born
Talking trash like, "yeah I had it bro my raps were so pure"
But ain't got nothing to show for it
Snap out of it
So I made a flow for it
And rapped out of it
The tragic way that my life probably should have gone
Until I kinged myself and realized that I ain't a pawn

When I was young yo know they couldn't subtract
A damn thing from me yet they said that I lacked
Learning capabilities but now I cut checks
My Gramps instilled in me don't overreact
But I must not of listened cause I'm catching a laugh
I rarely look back, but getting back to the class
All them guidance counselors said I couldn't of passed
How you say that to a kid only 13 of age
Well maybe that's the fire that be lighting the rage
Maybe thats the thing that broke TYL out his cage
Getting high everyday fuck minimum wage
I love being myself I catch some looks that be strange
But man that's what happens when you doing your thing
And it's a beautiful thing because Yung Dizzle can tell
All of y'all may never be down for the cause
If you do not feel my vibe then go ahead and hit pause
It's probably because y'all too busy in awe
Cause I hit this shit Raw
Like ODB, Shimmy Yaw

That's a shoutout to the Wu-Tang let your nuts hang
Bump a few classics in your whip with a young thing
If you see she make a funny face like the beat stink
Then you gonna have to keep it because she the true thing
I know a couple like that
But they ain't like me like that
But it's alright because that's how life goes

As I'm sitting here reflecting
I see how misconceptions lead you down a path like misdirection
I see how people lead you down a path of evil
As they deceive you while you thinking they the end all like a prison needle
I see how viral features leave you captured like detention teachers
I see how people throwing dirt but then be claiming equal
I see how innocence be thrown up in the middle
Where shit popping off like a 90s SkyPager beeper
I seen how hope can prosper in the darkness of the heartless
I seen how people misconstrue intentions did it warrant
I seen dreams thrown to the side cause how the cards had fallen
I seen the difference boil down to the one who wants it

Was born with a heart of rap
And I'm bout to go let it slap
And I'm bout to have heart attack
While I'm spitting out all them facts
And I cherish the place we at
But I'm calling all out attack
Got a mission so let it stacks
So we get out the place we at

Life's a dream that's why we chase it uh
So come and chase it bruh
I like to sip on my Henny with no chaser huh
