Thanks For Waiting - Live at Union Tavern, Somerville, MA, April 29, 2023 (Live)

Alright, it's seven kid
Present, this penman is still the freshest
Took a while to lock in, but I'm back now, who guessed it?
Give 'em something refreshing to quench their thirst for these verses
I will be terse with this message, praying this show's a blessing
I wanna be the best, is that crying for the crescent?
To the heavens, all credit, the reason for future merit
That little mix I made put me in that one direction
And now my X factor's monumental
The flow's morphing into morphine, making those sores clean
Healing those old wounds, faces will all beam
That's what I aim to do, make a change for you and I
And in due time, we may see bluer skies
Look, I'm aware I became stagnant with putting the pen to patterns
I didn't want to be seen as some gimmick or a gambit
All cards on the table, ante up to all challenge
I await it, the result's my elevation
Thanks for waiting
Thanks for waiting
Thanks for waiting
Yo

My pencil bestowed credentials on me
This lead don't give out, it's like the intensest army
I just wanna see my dogs on the crest like Charlie's
And be the best at bodying instrumentals
While being able to evade the Kens and Barbies
My raps are fire, now give these infants their pacifiers
I may just expose these squares, yeah, I'll Vanna White ya
Shots sting like the police's, no BS
People got holes in they souls like old sneakers
So I'll make music that lasts, there's no rubric for that
I know it's cruel to have them wait for you to go stupid on tracks
Musing is mad therapeutic in fact
It turned me Coolidge with rap, but now the truest is back
You should see the verses baked, tryna make the perfect cake
I've been on my ride-or-die, I don't even earn a wage
All these concepts in my head, gotta let them germinate
Opus on a different scale, hopefully it's worth the wait
