EYES OPEN 03:18
lyrics
Dog hair on my socks man I hate walking on these floors Ball player, I'm a Red Sox hit it three or four times then I head home Keep ya eyes open, got my eyes open, ready set go Checks keep coming, I keep climbing I don't ever wanna hit rock bottom Feeling self conscious, so I'm rock climbing over compensating Niggas want attention, I don't need attention Need a high yield stacking up my interest Fucking prostitutes ya'll niggas mission, ya'll niggas trippin In a Model 3 going 'bout my business Never understood ya'll niggas vision Every now and then gotta check the mirror, gotta check myself Make sure I'm in it, make sure it's me Make sure I ain't trippin, make sure I'm in it, no this not a image Kept it 4D, got a new perspective Niggas can't see need a new perspective Chef Boyardee, I be in the kitchen Need a bigger kitchen, 'bout 4 kitchens White tee on me can't spill a biscuit Wont spill a biscuit Sauce been a given from the beginning I locked in chose a life sentence I locked in now I'm stuck in it Yea I'm stuck with it, I thought wrong ya'll ain't with it Ya'll ain't got it, ya'll cant get it Fooled me once, twice wont let it These 3 stripes on my slippers, I can't slip, I'm not slippin Losing my shit Losing my grip Running out of breath but I'm still swinging my fist Swallow my tears Blood on my lips Cover my mouth and brace for whatever is next But I cant cover my eyes Can't cover my eyes Can't cover my eyes Can't cover my eyes Can't cover my eyes Can't cover my eyes Can't cover my eyes Can't cover my eyes

lyrics
Break your fucking shit Come for me I'll come for you Think our bad then make a move All your screamin don't mean shit All I've got is what you'll get, do what I can Even if it hurts No one fucking cares I wont break a sweat Even if I'm scared C'mon make your bed Shove it down your throat I don't wanna fight but now you're on my fucking nerves Come for me, come for you Come for me, come for you Come for me, come for you No more time think, break your fucking shit

WHO AM I TO BE 00:50
lyrics
How much does it take to be free? How much is expected from me? I'm battling with both time and money Then threw it all away like a dummy I wish I could get it all back but I know I can't I been trying to put these pieces back intact once again I been torn split left for dead, now I want revenge Back for my revenge, back with this revolver for your head!

EXPERIENCE 02:37
lyrics
These finger tips ain't touch a blunt in a minute Tackle my anxiety like a football scrimmage Weight in my pockets could use some weight lifting Sharpen these words when I got time to kill Been taking on more than I should That nasty feeling in ya gut leaves a sluggish feeling It's government food stamps keeping us afloat You 3 months behind on the mortgage asking me for a loan? But my funds low, can't thank you enough for sticking with me knowing shit been dumb slow My pride wont let me hang it up, no I ain't fond of beach clothes Theres more where this came from Assault riffles tucked away in project condominiums For my niggas who think about it For my niggas around other niggas who don't think about consequences, I've been around 'em A lil piece of mind trying to keep a clean apartment Scattered ideas and agendas, said I was fasting but I'm still in the kitchen A lil salty when they forget to mention Today I wanted to prove my point, today my conscious in the air like remnants from a joint A couple blocks down, I'ma text you back soon as I get back home Northside take me to the 9 not the hills Atm was closed sent you the rent money through Zelle Quiet late nights make it easier for me to doze off and chill Left my phone in the crib, saw this actress face that reminded me of your face Seem like I got a mental place for you still

XENA 02:03
lyrics
I should buy me a goat when I go out to Africa Show all these fuck niggas who really got it They run with ya shit and forget where they got it Might drop a crib on a whip cuz I'm 'bout it We low to the ground we can hear all you hobbits I favor the seasons I don't care for no tropics Take all my treasure out the safety deposit Ain't nobody dead but these ones in my pocket Act like I'm dead cuz I don't wanna be bothered My niggas need love cuz that other shit toxic "Nigga stop it" Guns or the bottles man which one you poppin? Guns or the bottles which one you poppin? Richard or Rollie which one you watchin? Spot me a freak who dancin' for profit Tatted obnoxious, like what I'm watchin Might be a demon I'ma keep rockin Feeling my heart shift, feeling hardships, Feeling more heartless, feeling more darkness Still in this apartment you can hear barking Still with the gauntlet nigga don't start shit Niggas dont sing 'round here, just pop shit Fuck around, sing about it and make a new pop hit Running with the mischief, running with extensions Running from the grim shit, running from the trenches Running out of hit sticks niggas gon' pick shit Running from the henchmen you aint finna kill shit Runnin for redemption trying to get dibs in Running for my backend like I need fitness Like I'm tryna run across the state, like I'm tryna cop a gun today You can smell the worry on my face, you can feel me blocking everything Practice magic 32 safety, I don't even practice safe sex Practice my religion on the daily, every time I see a paycheck They told me I'd be happy with success, I ain't even happy tryna chase it They told me not to let the devil in, probably know some shit that he can tell me Probably know some shit that he can help with Probably heard the preacher one too many Probably heard the world was always ending I'll probably try to run it in my Asics I should buy me a goat when I go out to Africa Show all these fuck niggas who really got it They run with ya shit and forget where they got it Might drop a crib on a whip cuz I'm 'bout it We low to the ground we can hear all you hobbits I favor the seasons I don't care for no tropics Take all my treasure out the safety deposit

HOUSE OF MIRRORS 02:16
lyrics
I wish I didn't care what they think but I do Like a house of mirrors I can see myself in you Tell me if it's love so I don't need to question you All these squares tryna reach up I refuse Tell me why they trippin I'm confused, bitch I'm lost Tell me something different I could use, I'm at awe Told you it ain't nothing keep it moving bitch I'm gone Told you it ain't nothing worth pursuing what you want? Feel like I been losing this connection with you off Feel like I been losing my connection when we talk Why I'm always seeking out your flaws? Cuz niggas flaw Why I never seem to be alarmed? Cuz it ain't odd Bless they hearts I know they cappin I know they parts I know they actin Want my heart but she can't have it Tore my heart up, left me damaged Coppin tees with hella damage I'm intrigued if that hoe tatted Think I'm boosie, think I'm ratchet Think I'm spending, think I'm stacking Percys ain't gon' work, I'ma swallow down my pride Like a razor I'ma fade when I need to catch my vibe Bitch I'm tired of tryna run with niggas runnin from themselves On east-side I rather post up, get my bankroll on the west It's just facades, swear to God you should see it for yourself All these lies niggas feed you just so they can feed themselves I wish I didn't care what they think but I do Like a house of mirrors I can see myself in you Tell me if it's love so I don't need to question you All these squares tryna reach up I refuse Tell me why they trippin I'm confused, bitch I'm lost Tell me something different I could use, I'm at awe Told you it ain't nothing keep it moving bitch I'm gone Told you it ain't nothing worth pursuing what you want? Feel like I been losing this connection with you off Feel like I been losing my connection when we talk Why I'm always seeking out your flaws? Cuz niggas flaw Why I never seem to be alarmed? Cuz it ain't odd

OOOH 01:55
lyrics
I can make the world do just what I want It's my way or the highway Took the driver seat instead of asking you for help Took it upon myself It's times I wanna get away from you, a break from you A break before I break a fuse, break a thing or two Tense vibes I be sending you, it worries you, I know it do And all I know is how to pack my bags up and run from you Run from anything that's close and personal Don't take it personal, I know that's hard to do These walls remind me of all the internal issues I'm going through And I just wanna fight you, nah I'm really fighting me Spreading hurt but I'm too blind to see All these versions of me in the house to help me recognize my blemishes As time winds, I still feel like that same slow perfectionist Slow learner but I'm wrecking shit, I reckon you don't wanna feel this Tekken kick Knock you back to grade school, baby food & medicine, don't play with him Play with fools you'll make it then Nine times out of ten, I be in the house shooting jumpers from the nose bleed Been tryna change my name from SKUFL, but you know it's me Guess I'm tryna cover all requirements and check the checklist, nigga!

FOREVA 02:20
lyrics
Broke the combination Went from broke to compensations, conversations Niggas joking, often faking You the joke we often making Off to Vegas, off to shake it, All the devils connotations, on this pavement Condensating, niggas sweatin, cops invading We evading out this matrix in a spaceship Out to space the destination Broke the feeling of displacement Broke the ceiling from this basement Pray my demons show they faces Needa boost from confrontation Pray for healing when we aching Brutal battles needa tend to my wounds Redefining who I’m shaping, what I’m shaping in this booth Letting looose, needa safe haven These payments paying for the roof For the soles, on my feet Trace my roots, bless the streets Lace my soul through these loops and these beats Kept my nose off the ground, bitch i rose from defeat, on repeat This a rose from the bottom of the soil with deceit He different kind of beast When temptation show his face He gon’ make me thinks it’s me, when i doze off Thinking about his golds when he speak When he talk, money trees come alive from the sky, from the heat Huggin flames, huggin death in my sleep All these things never mattered they can burn in a blink In a sink, torch a page with my ink Might of burnt many bridges tryna clear up what I think With this lighter, out of sync Out of tune with myself Take my spoon, dig for wealth

JET FUEL 02:21
lyrics
I beat the beat odd I'm into beating odds Two hits and I'm gone, now I'm chiefin' with the gods You remind me of a bomb, I'm tryna link and bond You tryna link and what? Evaporate, I'm gone Grab the steel like Bond wide awake at dawn Neck piece gold charm and a stone I can't Never feast without the sauce, get the fetti and the parm Keep it green like the lawn I'm tryna wake up before I hear my damn alarm Stomach sticking out because I ate a bunch of ya'll Rappers taste like salt Say when or say all, no discretion at all Ya boy back in, the bull tryna ball I used to wanna pull broads just to score and go long Jumped right into the city and leaped out like frog Must be the jet fuel you can smell me taking off Yeah, me and shorty making sure the bills paid off Far from a Porsche but we still came far Used to hesitate dawg, used to take too long Hiding demons in my vault, had to meet Adolph Every once in a while we might meet and square off Back to the sheets, where I started off with dollar and a dream If it wasn't for the dollar menu dawg I wouldn't eat What a nice surprise , the world wasn't what it seemed in my head And it wasn't me, what I had seemed in my head "Hey mom I'm making beats but need three for the rent" "Believe me momma, in these streets, we coming next!" See poppa he like "when you finna eat or see a check?" Just relax dawg man you finna see who the best Knock knock, reality gave me a lil check Had to take a seat and go be with myself Meet with myself and have peace with myself

lyrics
Flames in my skull get the best of me I cook whatever is standing in front of me Dragon heads sing to me The world is my punching bag, I beat the breaks off that Making ya windows crack, aint holding nothing back Kudos to you hoes who think you can see a chance I don't see none of that, I see a grave for you Sprinkle remains of you, make me a plate or two Save all my Save all my niggas from hate to relay the truth Brought me a tank, I'ma solider let's see what no limit do Knock off my burden like I was some tennis shoes Knock off your turbulence, slip off your pedestal Can't no one pray for you, ain't no one saving you, pray it's protecting you Armor your flesh or get ate like some vegetables Making my way amongst the prey and the predators Know this shit like the back of my hand Know a bitch who gon' lie to her man Make sure shit goes as planned. I'ma let her see Let her come with her head and come level me, up the pedigree UP THE ENERGY UPPER ENTITY BREAK THE SEA SO THEY SEE WHO'S ENORMOUS AINT NO LEVELING WITH ME I'M SCORCHING AINT NO DEVIL GON GET ME THAT'S HORSE SHIT Live from the pit In the the pit of my hands With the rest of my sins burning tires and rage Illuminate from above, watch the blaze paint the landscape away Jedi minds chopping blades Oven hot, pull a brick, call it hells piece of cake Caught a leaf, I was floating around soaking up game Thousand needles proceed to ya face Send my Eagles to eat Send my diesel to greet you, leave fecal all over your place Shit is lethal, I see, I'm a regal, my seat catch the sequel Right here by this easel Painting something evil Pick fruits out my mind, step inside of my eden The sea gulls retrieval scooped up Beanie Siegel like Jay Yin & yang I meet both in the middle

What felt like forever is finally here! I couldn't tell you when this day would come, it was killing me inside to not know myself but here we are. I wish I had gotten this to you sooner than later. I wish it didn't take me so long, sad face. I wish the process was a breeze & songs got completed faster than I could blink. I wish I had it all figured it out for you like a finished piece of cake. I wish things went as planned with all the dreams and promises sold to me, but that wasn't the case. I can honestly say I'am proud of this body of work and feel like this is an honest portrayal of my influences expression emotions with much room for improvement. I really love this & still at awe what time and crafting with care can result. I hope you fall in love with it too.

Feels like im just winging it still but who isnt? I may still not be prepared and only have one box checked off. It will never feel like it’s truly enough. Everyone around me may not agree with my decision making or be a fan of my work. I may be the only one who truly believes in what I’m doing here. It's probably only 5 people that truly fuck with me and all of this is just a waste of time feeding my blind ego. But what I do have here is this, something I've toggled with back and forth, banged my head across serval walls, walked circles in serval rooms, go back to drawing board, aggressively working to get my skills better, feeling inadequate and refilling the well with new found confidence and emotional intelligence, constant self talk, isolation, confusion, disappointment, the list goes on.
Losing my father in the final stages of this project was one of the biggest curve balls & waking signs. From crushing my fucking brain trying to finish xena digging deep inside to get the words out while simultaneously grieving to only write a subpar verse STIILL and keep pushing through like a fucking psycho telling myself I cant leave the apartment until I'am done with this project. My fathers death couldn't stop me or get me to walk away from my end goal, sad, at that point I was outside of myself and overly obsessed with this project wrapped in shame grief disappointment and determination.

It's all yours now. YOU CAN HAVE IT. I've babied it, washed it serval times, protected it , shared it amongst friends until god knows when. I hope it means something or nothing to you. I hope you love it or hate it no in between. I hope I've delivered because I've come too far and worked too hard for you to just be in between now. I've been doing this for 10+ years but only flirting with the industry for 3 or 4 years. I can honestly say I'am done with being part of the machine and would much rather continue living my life building my community and creating like a mad man, sharpening my skills treating this shit like a true saumrai/ninja with honor, having fun and doing whatever the fuck I want.
Share my music if you truly enjoy it or listen to it a million times and pick up on things you didn’t the 1st time. go do something with your life and listen to some cool shit once in a while. A promise to myself, next one wont take so long. A promise to you all, next time I write something here it wont be as long. 😂🤟🏿🌪💗
