catch me up (feat. Joel Victor, Jxmmy 8311, Michigang & 3 Shadows + the DF)

Okay, okay, here we go

Imma always keep it all a buck
A lot been happened please top my cup
Been a minute since I've seen all of us
(Catch me up, catch me up, catch me up)
Roll together, tell me where's Cubie or Truck?
(Catch me up, catch me up)

Yo Trey your hair is long
Damn has it been that long?
Since I have visited home
Back from the concrete jung
Cold for a sec let me get my crew on (Aye!)
Jimmy, Joel Vic, hit one more song? (Alright)
Grab these bases right quick with a Mickey D's trip
End it with a world champ run
I swear they be around every corner here with their journals
Trying to catch our verbals
'Cause we keep it two Virgil's (Ya!)
Man I love my twenties but this trauma be full circle
Let it eat me up and not face what's internal
Na, can't be me nigga
Got my set tight, I'm with my team, Trigga (DF!)
Trey might snap and bust your seams, Figua (What!)
It's all cap? watch 'em retract when I show the facts
It ain't no act and under the hood it's that pristine (Aye!)
Cruise down Woodward, ain't more a dream
With Dally, Cam, Levi, Matty P
Spence on the aux he called shotty
Like thank you, issa blessing to let my own hair down
With the ones who knew me since I had a little buzz
Felt like lightyears ago, but now we be making moves
Shaking Andy's room, whole world dropping soon
We coming up it's Trey

Imma always keep it all a buck
Catch me up, catch me up
A lot been happened please top my cup
Catch me up, catch me up
Been a minute since I've seen all of us
Catch me up, catch me up
Roll together, tell me where's Cubie or Truck?
Catch me up, catch me up

Yeah, catch me up
'Cause I ain't been lapped in a while though
And I ain't look back in a while so
All that you can do is track me, I'm all alone
So you say you backing me now
It spoke to my head, I put in the work
So you do not go asking me how
I'll be in a cast 'fore I cast in the towel
Y'all are a cast how you act in a crowd
It's easy to tell when it's actually passion
Y'all acting I see that you lacking the smile
The way I've been making my miles
Who's catching me up
When they busy catching me now
They way I've been matching my miles
Who's catching me up
When they isn't catching me now, ugh

The way I've been making my miles
Who's catching me up
When they busy catching me now
They way I've been matching my miles
Who's catching me up
When they isn't catching me now

Imma always keep it all a buck
Catch me up, catch me up
A lot been happened please top my cup
Catch me up, catch me up
Been a minute since I've seen all of us
Catch me up, catch me up
Roll together, tell me where's Cubie or Truck?
Catch me up

This song is dedicated to the day one's-A1's
I define Day 1 as the start of something new
A new hobby, a new job, or like my childhood
Moving to a new place to start a new chapter
Shoutout to Derek on the ad-libs
One of my first friends when I moved back to the Mitten
Same neighborhood, both in band
He matched my chaotic self, so much love for that kid

Joel Victor on the second verse
One of the core inspos for my presence on the mic
One of the most talented rappers I've had the pleasure to collab with
Always game to geek out on rap bars and jazz
Eu te amo, irmão
Stay hungry, be consistent
Stay shining, the flowers will bloom

Thane Q mixed the vocals, post-production tinkering, and moral support
We were tight in high school
But more recently with the songs we've done
I'm grateful to know you
Thank you for the music theory, the friendship
And we'll hit O'Toole's again soon

Jxmmy, the man behind the trumpet
Blue Stars Drum Corps Alumni
The man with the music taste that always leave me in awe
And quite frankly an inspo for going after a goal and accomplishing it
May your hair always be moisturized
And you find a beat that makes you hit a stank face every week

If the song was longer I would go more into detail about the rest of the crew
That I shoutout in the order that they are featured in the chorus
I stay thinking about y'all, blessings

Imma always keep it all a buck
Catch me up, catch me up
A lot been happened please top my cup
Catch me up, catch me up
Been a minute since I've seen all of us
Catch me up, catch me up
Roll together, tell me where's Cubie or Truck?
Catch me up, catch me up
