Victory Lap
Yeah! Ladies and gentlemen
I wanna thank you for dropping by
You've been listening to
The soundtrack to my life at thirty five
A slice of my mind, a moment in time
It's the final stop, the end of the line
Not quite ready yet to say my good-byes cuz
It's been a labor of love, shit still fits like a glove
Writing rhymes is still my favorite drug, but
The final curtain beckons, I don't know where I'm headin'
Looked for answers and ended up with many questions
Learnt many lessons, tryina make a classic
The indie maverick, rap's Terrence Malick
Above average, but how will it resonate?
Never mind yo tonight I'm gonna celebrate
For one night Imma live it up like Hov
A good bourbon and the finest Cuban smokes
Selfies with the crew striking up a pose
So raise your glasses - I propose a toast!
This could by me
Masterpiece, my last release
Good times pass, life is rather brief
So please: allow me to take a victory lap!
Hey!
This could by me
Masterpiece, my last release
The second act is not guaranteed
So please: allow me to take a victory lap!
Hey!
Fame is overrated, I want recognition
But is it art if nobody pays attention?
When rap music is consumed like a commodity
Am I a fool to go for quality not quantity?
Honestly... I'm just tryina speak my truth
Hopin that a few, will feel the way I do
If you still here, maybe you share my point of view
And if not: this is non-refundable
Who you know more Mello than me, riddle me that
This that Jay-Z, building legacy rap (Uh)
That train of thought Jack Kerouac rap (Uh)
That "praise the lord", reverend rap (Woo)
Ain't nothin' holy 'bout tonight's celebrations though
Finishing this album took a lot of patience yo
Imma say my peace and let the song fade out slow
Allow me to take a bow before I end the show...
This could by me
Masterpiece, my last release
Good times pass, life is rather brief
So please: allow me to take a victory lap!
Hey!
This could by me
Masterpiece, my last release
The second act is not guaranteed
So please: allow me to take a victory lap!
Hey!
This right here is the album I always wanted to make
Thank you for listening
Good night and good luck
I wanna thank you for dropping by
You've been listening to
