Sleep Now
Flow ski mask
When I speed pass
Understand it's on lock
I don't need caps
Spread the word then a nigga got relax
I barely get the feedback
Fuck it, they don't listen anyway
Rather have the harder way
Or the posites man
Guess niggas don't want the knowledge man
Gotta show them that this is more than a hobby man
You call that hip hop? I call it flip flop
Hiplocked be up in this bitch till we old
Me and Quan hardknock life was enrolled
Till the pen came, nigga offered parole
Aw shit, flawless
I don't know what I should call this
Art scholarship, I should draw this
But school doesn't start till August
I got em cautious
I'm better in time
I seen many hang themselves
I got the rope and I climbed
To Mount Everest, elevating
My pineal gland
They want me falling like like 04 Ron
Back in the stands
Ha, no sir, not I
Q I won't be that guy, that didn't study to get by
I got dreams dog of Dubai
Ima give y'all more
I got dreams bigger than the city nigga
But the city sleeping on me
Sleep paralysis is creeping on me
I put my heart, I put my soul, I put my family in it
Guess that's the sacrifice
No listens, that don't separate the fact
That I'm fucking nice
I'll be the poltergeist
If I get booed, I'll take it back to the lunch table, turn it to a damn heist
8th grade freestyling
I gave them bars nigga
I'll start redialing
But these kids need the balance
Better yet my ballads
So much toxins in the world
I choose to serve them salads
And still get criticized for saying food for thoughts
Such foolish thoughts
Should I turn these pantries to chained vaults?
And starve em cause I said it too much?
Naw I'm thinking much more
Mistakes made only makes a tough core
In other words you gotta toughen up
I'll help you sharpen knives to give you that uppercut
So you can be from a different cloth
While they napping dog
So you can warm up easily and get to snapping off
I warmed up easily, now a nigga snapping
Off
Back against the wall, I'm back again
So I can back it up
Only speaking freely cause I know they got shackles up
From the media and the networks
I guess we all catch attention does that net work?
Unemployed and overjoyed
But I'm here again, redeployed
To let you know that trail blaze
Can't be another Brandon Roy
No ACLS but they stand for bread
Stalemate, while the bars that I write
Probably change a cell mate and his stale face
Well, hopefully
But let me change the topic for girls loving my poetry
Every one I meet, it seems we bumping heads
I guess they deaf to what I'm saying
I'm on Jagged Edge
Still I want to teach
Self love, self appreciation,
Know yoself, yeah you left
But I'm right here,
Every night with no fear
No spite, just advice like a therapist
Avoiding problems with the clients
No lying
I'm my friends favorite rapper and that makes me proud
I'm a realist, niggas feel this
Yeah I got a while
My cousin Snooky told me Dev you gotta hold it down
And if you don't know, well you know it now
When I speed pass
Understand it's on lock
I don't need caps
Spread the word then a nigga got relax
I barely get the feedback
Fuck it, they don't listen anyway
Rather have the harder way
