For Obvious Reasons

Hey, one time, for my people on the grind
Two times, for my people trying to shine
Too many of us dying, placed in a project full of crime
But that don't mean, you gotta stop trying
Real talk
One time, for my people on the grind
Two times, for my people trying to shine
Too many of us dying, placed in a project full of crime
But that don't mean, you gotta stop trying
Straight up

Another night, just writing what I feel
Recite it on the mic, keep it real
Still don't have a deal, but the music it be bumping
Pumping thru the speakers, the trunk it be thumping
Competition, know my steppers get to stomping
Chasing after profit, want my pockets looking lumpy
Got the crowd jumping, I know what they want
The music you can feel, I give you what they don't
I'm talkin good vibes, can you relate
Annihilating snakes, separating from the fake
Feel I must escape, though I cannot catch a break
They say they want that smoke, like they fiending for that vape
Flo'caine, hit ya veins now ya fiending for my tape
If you playing this right now, then you tuned it to the Great
Ka-Flame, don't confuse me with lames
For obvious reasons, our music ain't the same

Pedal to the metal, keep my foot on the gas
Green paper blue strips, when I look in that bag
Not the type to brag, but that's all we wanna see
Voicemail full saying, Flame call me when you free
They know that I be busy, I ain't out here in the streets
Making money mixing songs, or I'm either making beats
I sell them for the cheap, they be wanting them for the free
Swearing that they're woke, but honestly they sleep
Released another album, but it's barely getting feedback
Thinking bout retiring, at times I really need that
My son saying don't stop, you the greatest
My homie TK., say I'm one of his favorites
Next to Big K.r.i.t., J.Cole and some others
I feel they got talent so, shout out to them brothers
Well known vet, flow is hotter this season
They don't wanna see me balling, for obvious reasons but
