[Verse 1] They wonder where I get my inspiration? I tell 'em, I look in the mirror I sit and analyze just what I would like to see It's just the life in me. They wonder where I get my inspiration? I'm inspired by those who did it before me Also the ones who adore me Although the ones who ignore me give me that motivation. They wonder where I get my inspiration? From inside, the kid that's on the inside I promised that boy this time I'm a dig in deep, Show myself that I just don't live for myself [Verse 2] Sittin' in the fear of shit happenin' I have no control of What if Steve Jobs passed before he invented the Mac? A career with that I have, started on Garageband But look here, makin' it this far wasn't part of my plans, Yeah I paid attention in class, I learned more from just being there Yeah we visit the churches, I'm still wonderin' why we're in fear. Yeah our hearts' clean, you can let God tell you that. Yeah I got peers who hit the blunt to keep their mind clear Yeah, I got a portion of spirit I feel is barely tapped, Look myself in the eye and wonder just what I'm staring at Look myself in the mirror, wonder just I'm feelin' I'm feelin' there's somethin' those in position are still concealing Bad bitches and millions are so appealing, Conspiracy theories of a villain, slowly revealin' That physical isolation's enough to destroy a nation, Plus the fear of others equals lack of motivation. Searchin' for love, a picture that society painted That if I ain't got it in that way, it ain't it Which is why I'm on a mission to bring to fruition this vision, Sit and look and listen. Dodgin' deadly pestilence Success is in my residence I'm imagining having the evidence And if you see it, that's excellent And if UC is a college, Then my knowledge is a scholarship My vision is a scholar, My confidence is all kind of shit I'm convinced I'm accomplished, I never woke up for class I just prayed about it then passed Was a chemist, but hated math Under the radar, I made a graph Up in the quasars, I take a bath Nigga, I made stars, I made my path Nigga was the nice guy that never finished last I was the calm dude that always had to spazz on the beat 'Cause I held it in so much, Hoppin' in front of the mic, then my life I recite 'Cause I might just be helpin' the both of us Welcome to my world, I hope you're closed, 'cause I'm openin' up Victory's in my arm and I'm holdin' it up Feel the squeeze in my palm As I slowly ease and calm The calm before the season storm The flight that wasn't planned before the landin' At the Terminal that never seemed to be at home.

[Intro] Life...Uhh (You can tell me where we go now 4x) [Verse 1] This is exactly what I was lookin' for I found that inspiration after buying Take Care on iTunes and Len Springs sittin' in my room while we had that conversation about how to make it Especially when the previous day, me and Hitman ran into Kelis And it made him say he's tired of feeling basic Got the type of drive to make a V8 take off Supercharged engine in a race with Nas Your spacebar is my racecar, when you press play I'm makin' top Speed off the get-off, pedal to the metal won't let off I'm filling all the vacant spots, I've got a scene that I seen In my dreams that let me know this is where the chasing stops Shit I've worked so hard so that I could be the man Walking in my shoes, need Jason's socks Girls feel frisky when you really don't try So I really can't lie, my patience stopped... Never gave up, learned to face facts And the fact of the matter is I'mma make shit hot Put it in packaging, then I wait for the drop Then watch me float on the way to the top [Hook] Said I've been waiting for this moment Not just to be noticed, but those things I felt were hopeless Won't go to a waste, I'm going in and out of focus But that's the process of growing, and that's the cost of just knowing That you would surely take off I never thought being sober can make you feel so loaded I'm fed up with these thoughts and now I think I'm feeling bloated But with all this time devoted, I'll make sure that you know I'm a prodigy I'm a prodigy, I'm a prodigy [Verse 2] Ever had that feeling where you're like 'fuck that shit I'm tired of the back?' And all your friends that you starved with and tried to ball with got you wired to attack? No matter how many times that you've tried Got you feeling like you're sitting in the middle of a trap Bout to cramp out in the middle of the track? They just give you frowns and you smile right back? Still in the struggle, why it feel like that? Now niggas want to hang and ladies want to chat? They just want to learn, and I just want to rap But it's still all love cause the skill don't slack Got that feeling...that this is how it feels before you make... What the world will call it... Freeze tag everytime I spit on track... Noticing that moment... Everytime my eyes close when instead of seeing them roaches I'll be somewhere down the coast with the rest of Wrekless and records... That are nominated for Grammys, my time has made what is plan B Become A...plan that came in handy, yea! [Hook] Said I've been waiting for this moment Not just to be noticed, but those things I felt were hopeless Won't go to a waste, I'm going in and out of focus But that's the process of growing, and that's the cost of just knowing That you would surely take off I never thought being sober can make you feel so loaded I'm fed up with these thoughts and now I think I'm feeling bloated But with all this time devoted, I'll make sure that you know I'm a prodigy I'm a prodigy, I'm a prodigy

[Verse 1] Sittin' in my new zone I made it sweet. Bounce back from war, But that's the price I had to pay for peace. M.J. in Space Jam, they held me back, but I made it reach Until I made a couple hits like Jordan in the Major Leagues My hustle is legal enough to build a Visa Had them pretty girls rockin' in their Keri Hilson features I'm a certain type of feller/Need no misdemeanor Need a certain type of swagger to perceive of this demeanor We are Los Angeles ridin'/The city we reside in In which made the game like either Tamara or Tia, Either BeeGee rollin' tree up, or Wrekless at the Airport Throwin' up the double you like symbols, call it Tisa. What... Word to Goddy at C-SUN Hoping that when I visit, the ladies will let me see some Just asking for love, baby girl I don't really need none Feels like Len coached the crew Just by the way he brought the team up. Got a view of the city like an arena On the hill on La Brea, after the mini-freeway That comes right after Coliseum... Come on, let's roll, now not everything glitters, But life is worth more than Gold, go... Roll your windows down...Yell this out loud... Yeah I'm Wrekless and I'm stunting, you can bow down I turned nothing into something in this wild town I turned my pain into joy, I made my frowns smile I put the weak me in a bag and lost the Hefty, And I beat all of the odds, Man I should practice boxing lefty Got a different type of heart, I promise you will not forget me, And since promises are often broken, you cannot upset me [Hook] Let me try it out... I'll be back in a year... Made it all the way there just to see I've been here... Gotta thank God, 'Cause it ain't easy followin' all your dreams When it seems you're behind all of your peers. I used to hold it in... Now we hold it down... Now we're here coaching all the ones that used to clown. Gotta thank God, 'Cause it ain't easy followin' all your dreams When it seems that no one else is around...woah [Verse 2] I set the mood, so this is my type of environment... Not just my house or neighborhood, But this whole life we live. Now I no longer feel misunderstood, just like to vent... 'Cause I messed up, but I dug up your love in spite of it Huh, And that was subliminal, what a criminal Those are just simple things that happen when your life's a miracle... Huh, And I'm feeling love from your existence, If you feel me when I'm not there, you got the sixth sense... But I'm always there like the Nix Checks Cashing on Crenshaw and 29th, what a mixed mess... Huh? See how I slid in without sliding in, That's what makes this exciting Even more than when I press send... Huh? So I figured I'd do this instead, Love is better done when said, not to mention... Huh? And If I gotta sit on the benches I'll give the coach an ice bath on the end's win. [Hook] Let me try it out... I'll be back in a year... Made it all the way there just to see I've been here... Gotta thank God, 'Cause it ain't easy followin' all your dreams When it seems you're behind all of your peers. I used to hold it in... Now we hold it down... Now we're here coaching all the ones that used to clown. Gotta thank God, 'Cause it ain't easy followin' all your dreams When it seems that no one else is around...woah

Flying to the terminal... They just fed me lies, I find the answers inside of him Pineapple express around the homies, maybe I H.O.C. Then put all of my negative thoughts on an island I..figure it's a miracle how I make these syllables Turn into a philosophical musical view for you... I make my dreams come true when I'm bored, Nigga this is life now...not what you used to do [Chorus] Said we all in the circle, I'm shoemaker Way too loose to chase ya..way too tied to lace ya Stuck to choosin' paper like eenie meanie mynie moe Said we all in the circle, I'm shoemaker Better freeze 'fo (before) you get tagged like tasers 'Cuz we are what our mind made us Bet I catch that tiger by it's toe [Verse 2] Live and live is a double standard I'll be live while I'm livin' and the Crew I grew up with gon' have millions in duffle bags And bank accounts...Chase with it in great amounts And rubber bands... Zeros that say infinity way too much that we can't take em out Uhh..What yo life bout, I play around Oh Jesus thank you, I'll be stackin' bricks paper style All courtesy of what the pain is now So I ain't lettin' the struggle weigh me down That's simply what made me bilau Anger in my heart, I convert it to joy.. Bad pretty women, a perfect decoy... Hit it, I'm a young Floyd... Funny how I figured how to get it, though I'm timid... I guess there's a soldier in this young boy Called a grown man, own my own land called a runway Bussin' on the models on it, you can call that gunplay Everyday I see the sun, I just call it Sunday Pretty women non-dress and...this is runday [Chorus 2x] Said we all in the circle, I'm shoemaker Way too loose to chase ya..way too tied to lace ya Stuck to choosin' paper like eenie meanie mynie moe Said we all in the circle, I'm shoemaker Better freeze 'fo (before) you get tagged like tasers 'Cuz we are what our mind made us Bet I catch that tiger by it's toe

[Chorus] If it's something that we never had the time to say... Maybe we can find a way... Just take all of the baggage, let it fall, and relax And then maybe we'll fly away If it's something that we never had the time to say... Then maybe we can try today... 'Cause I never had the courage, But baby, nobody's perfect, it doesn't have to work right away [Verse 1] Feels like I walked up into heaven You took me there with your presence Your body is like a Mac with you Apple bottom ascension... I see you walkin' in front of me, Don't front, you want that attention, I get it, I give it. 'Cause I know those kinds of simple things will turn you on Pretty sure I'm certain, I ain't perfect, but I'm learning In this thing called life, I'm married to it I pray to God yours moves smoothly and very fluent It wasn't in my heart to love, but see, I eventually knew It'd find a way... So when you hear it, just hear me through it Zoning out in the middle of time, Here meet cupid, I know this is different... But difference is part of the mission, Here we do the...Un-thinkable, I..Swizz and Alicia you... The key is in your heart, Find it quicker than speed can move With the help of some guidance, I figure I'd seek in you A way out of no way and I know that you'd see it through [Chorus] If it's something that we never had the time to say... Maybe we can find a way... Just take all of the baggage, let it fall, and relax And then maybe we'll fly away If it's something that we never had the time to say... Then maybe we can try today... 'Cause I never had the courage, But baby, nobody's perfect, it doesn't have to work right away [Verse 2] So when all is said and done And I'm finished havin' fun I know I'm a test that (test that 3x) Floating on cloud nine, practicing wild lines While I'm...thinking of different ways to pass time Confidence in my art is my favorite pastime Put it down, try again and hope it works that time... Oh you don't really feel the same way? That's fine So even in the event that you change that line, I'll find a way to make it feel like God made that mine I guess that's living in faith I suppose Like figuring ways to walk on ice skates in the snow When it's cold. As I treat you like you're my snow angel With a halo as I lay down and move in it, so graceful [Chorus] If it's something that we never had the time to say... Maybe we can find a way... Just take all of the baggage, let it fall, and relax And then maybe we'll fly away If it's something that we never had the time to say... Then maybe we can try today... 'Cause I never had the courage, But baby, nobody's perfect, it doesn't have to work right away [Verse 3] Perfect invitation to chill out With Mickey D's, sweet teas, Spiyda bring the grill out I feel the need to say, I'm just thankful for the day I finally get to say...how I really feel out I guess some things take time, I ain't tryin' to win a grammy, But shit, I'd surely be happy, I'd find a way But long story short, it's just a part of me That manages to find a way to whatever I'm called to be I guess some things take time, I'm tryin' to make you happy, Man I would surely be happy, I'd find away... But long story short, your a part of the mission, And you ain't even gotta guess where the Terminal is Ha! I guess some things take time... I guess in due time, we'll all find a way... I guess some things take time... And I know the time is ours today...Yeah [Chorus] If it's something that we never had the time to say... Maybe we can find a way... Just take all of the baggage, let it fall, and relax And then maybe we'll fly away If it's something that we never had the time to say... Then maybe we can try today... 'Cause I never had the courage, But baby, nobody's perfect, it doesn't have to work right away [Outro] So when all is said and done And you're finished having fun You know I'm a test that (test that 3x) Like art it gets better the more you're drawing her... Like art it gets better the more you...

[Chorus] Said if you knew what I knew... Then would you do it just like me... Said if you knew what I knew Tryin' to sustain in the city of vultures, I look success up in the eye, I see it really up close And if this is my only shot, Then I take it and never give it back... You're all that when you finally let go You're all grown 'til you find that you're wrong Give up before you find that you're strong...oh [Verse 1] Just finished talkin' to a friend of mine He said we're blessed, 'Cause we're tired, but we're still alive You gotta catch in the middle of the vibe just to survive Gave me permission to put this life, up in this line Stuck in the struggle, but changed my mind It is get it time, Used to be impatient, but now I pace to the finish line Used to be a sprinter, but now my race is a vision To search for peace with my family And harvest a wealthy living mind Smoking joy and sippin' life Your "hello" is my "hi" Travel through time with my lines, My lines are my timeline Pretty bars, gorgeous thoughts, recognize the fine print, They say we're moving back, But you rarely see that on my side South Central nigga... In the central of potential women who go ratchet And them niggas who 'gon clap, They probably got the strap in their backpack, Living out a culture That makes it glorious for them soldiers who don't run Until the show's over The scene strolls slower It seems we're always envious of them niggas who don't know us, Therefore we pack heat... Like we own solar, and buss it at your brother, Man, that's a cold closer, But if they never notice us, They will never know what's up That's why half of the function's never showin' up 'Cause they keep peace at the house like hippy fashion Trained to blast 'em before they ask 'em what happened [Chorus] Said if you knew what I knew... Then would you do it just like me... Said if you knew what I knew Tryin' to sustain in the city of vultures, I look success up in the eye, I see it really up close And if this is my only shot, Then I take it and never give it back... You're all that when you finally let go You're all grown 'til you find that you're wrong Give up before you find that you're strong...oh [Verse 2] I said, I think... Good living is everything you got Do everything you could with it..'Til you reach the top And everything is good...ain't gotta worry 'bout shit... Pretty little sisters in them pretty outfits Smellin' real good...they're all going out And they don't get offended when you see what their about 'Cause they ain't never got hurt, They don't know that feeling Can't' change it if it happened, But now you can change the route Uh(3x) Now that'll be probably half of the reason My thoughts are scattered in my mind Half of 'em are the bad ones, It's just so hard to distinguish Suffering from lack of judgement, The final test is to clean it In my mind I see it Notice all the lines and I just pick a line a read it It's like a fortune cookie, All the answers that I find in 'em Feelin' like I'm pawnin' 'em With no profit, 'cause I'm never listening to my mind Uh(3x) Thoughts of a young nigga Held in but never held my tongue with 'em I just capture visions and hurry and run with 'em Before I ever give my doubts chances to come get 'em I consider my mistakes a brand new opportunity I leave a mess a broom to sweep it And a mop for you to clean it Treat those props like property A win is not for you to see it Stuck in the mental habit, The nature my community is Uh Now just ask a nigga where I belong I will say right here, 'Cause I'm just not used to the top at all Leave it to the grind And it's action packed with no talk involved... Now tell me that ain't poppin' off They tell me I ain't had it Well I must've fell in magic 'Cause everything I'm attracting Makes me better than I have been In the cold, I am a cabin Remember days I used to panic Well now I'm feeling ecstatic 'Cause everything is just happening to work out [Chorus] Said if you knew what I knew... Then would you do it just like me... Said if you knew what I knew Tryin' to sustain in the city of vultures, I look success up in the eye, I see it really up close And if this is my only shot, Then I take it and never give it back... You're all that when you finally let go You're all grown 'til you find that you're wrong Give up before you find that you're strong...oh

[Verse 1] It's been... a minute since the last time, What are your thoughts on that? Hoping if you currently feel a little different than you did the last time, It comes right back... to the way It's always people like you that Keep my mind on track, in a way It's always people like me that Are the reason that you never stay, But we're the same... in a way I wonder if I seen the world in your eyes Will the view look the same? I wonder if... you were me then I mean would you Do the same thing? Would you go farther? Would you ever change? Would you go harder? You'd probably do better than me, Would you think smarter? Before I feel the strain and I choose to break away [Chorus] Save it for a later day Feelings never fade away I know we may not think the same thing Met you at the terminal and found you on the same plane But now that we're landing, I hope That you feel the way I do Even if I don't ever try to, I'll be beside you When you decide to break away Save it for a later day Feelings never fade away I know even if I don't ever try to, I'll be beside you when you decide to break away I met you at the terminal, we're on the same plane It's funny how things change, Used to be the one I would, Now it's I wish we didn't have to break away [Verse 2 Bridge] Didn't break away... Maybe if I looked through your eyes And seen myself in you... It wouldn't come as such a surprise When you tell me what you wanted me to do I'd tell you that I'm through, And you would wonder if it's true You would tell me that you love me, I would wonder if it's true And I'd come back to you right before you break away [Chorus] Save it for a later day Feelings never fade away I know we may not think the same thing Met you at the terminal and found you on the same plane But now that we're landing, I hope That you feel the way I do Even if I don't ever try to, I'll be beside you When you decide to break away Save it for a later day Feelings never fade away I know even if I don't ever try to, I'll be beside you when you decide to break away I met you at the terminal, we're on the same plane It's funny how things change, Used to be the one I would, Now it's I wish we didn't have to break away

[Verse 1] We're living in a space frenzy Seems like only yesterday when everyone was friendly And brand new J's were the only reason to envy 'Til people grew a heart, Then got it broken, that pain was heavy But that's what made 'em ready Had to change views, situations adapted The pain was in your face and in your place, you reacted Everyone you attracted, simply 'cause of your passion Became some kind of fashion just to be part of that shit I know who I owe rations to and that's exactly Who will clock the time in every race inside this track meet Dreams larger than Zangief, Strength that you can't beat Look he's tryin' to talk says Thumper about Bambi Crushes over Sherry, Destiny, Qaiyah, D'Angie That's my starting quadrille, So if you ask me, then that's me Started as a drummer, musical road runner, And I seen I had potential to be huge and own summers Visions of meeting Villaraigosa in Saragosa And I'd teach Ms. Estes something for all the things that she showed us We all could find something to get off our chest, so what They asked me for the mission and the real me showed up, showed up [Hook] Feels like every thought I ever told myself to hold up Is the reason that I am finally 'bout to grow up So put this in your car then take this as my hallmark card Go on and on and on It feels like every time I ever told myself to hold up Is the reason that I am finally 'bout to grow up So put this in your car then take this as my hallmark card Go on and on and on [Verse 2] Here we go, word to my Audubon days All the way to San José Those memories feel just hours away I got towers of things that remain On top of my brain, I just knew I'd make it to Denver some way... Word to Rahim And that's a safety statement for ya... Vacant paces never pave the way, I pave it for ya... They can change the way you think, But never change it for ya If beauty's in the eye of the holder, I made Sephora for a girl with great decorum Slap boxing... comparing hands with Vincent Mr. Framtpon was vicious But Hitman had the hit list And LuMo had the beats in San José, Remember when I met ya, But we never went back, 'Cause we recorded during lectures, uh [Hook] Feels like every thought I ever told myself to hold up Is the reason that I am finally 'bout to grow up So put this in your car then take this as my hallmark card Go on and on and on It feels like every time I ever told myself to hold up Is the reason that I am finally 'bout to grow up So put this in your car then take this as my hallmark card Go on and on and on [Verse 3] Ahh... can you hear me now? (2x) Said can you hear me now? Shit I'm dressed in success and I'm 'bout to wear it down This is the silent awareness effect I'm engineering me and I am in here in the jet And I made the mission back Let me explain In case you didn't get where my head was at Planned it, orchestrated, waited... Through the pain in which made a beautiful painting For a musical statement... Made cuts for everything I cut in case I'm too abrasive They asked me for concrete evidence And I paved the pavement Knew you would make it if you tried my dude, This is what happens when you decide to fly my nigga Goin' against the odds despite the size my dude Diving inside the clouds like the sky's my pool Put time and effort inside to exercise my Mind and defy the physics of fear, I gotta rise my Nigga, defy the physics of fear, I gotta rise my dude View the spectrum of the world like a collage Through these eyes, I came into this world tryin' to live a life of A vision of what you're epitomizing Not realizing that if we're alive, then Nigga we are Zion, that's only if you're striving To keep it real, tell me if you're feeling real Your brother like Rugrats, I'm your twin whenever you're Phil & Lil (feeling little) Shit comes alive in the midst of your passion, Only thing missing is an address With a mansion to seal the deal So if you ever decide to approach me with the question, I'll tell you My biggest lesson's learned from everything I feel for real [Hook] Feels like every thought I ever told myself to hold up Is the reason that I am finally 'bout to grow up So put this in your car then take this as my hallmark card Go on and on and on It feels like every time I ever told myself to hold up Is the reason that I am finally 'bout to grow up So put this in your car then take this as my hallmark card Go on and on and on [Outro] Yeah...

(Brittney Jaii) Shooting Star (3x) [Verse 2: Jet 2] Just look at how far we came Up 'til now from so long ago, Just a song ago, Was feelin' down and out, But now I'm loving the way that life is rounding out Now we're around and about About around the same time We take a tour around the world like a sound wave does You could see the view from the sky like a plane's up While sitting in the terminal like that's where you came from... Like that's where you came from Look in baby girl and aim up See you're really something that this world just can't touch (6x) [Verse 3: RockstarTuNE] Vicodin... overdose by her Vicodin Loaded like a semi, let it loose Shooting star from a camera scoop, paparazzi group And I apart the group, Shameless to say, they better not regroup Shameless to say, they come in pears(pairs) like fruit Mean less what you say before we can call it truce, oh [Chorus: Jet 2 & Brittney Jaii] I want to be where you are Will you be my shooting star? Will you be my shooting star? (Brittney Jaii) Shooting Star A sight to see near or far Will you be my shooting star? Will you be my shooting star? Shooting star (3x) [Verse 4: RockstarTuNE] I love it when you say my name Memories in the bed we sleep Corridor, A-D-H-D Vanilla ice on the A-D-D She's a bit hard to swallow She's the only ten I see at the El Dorado With a little Hennessy, that'll solve our problem, So we're living by the moment in the stars we came from Stars we came from, Living by the moment in the stars we came from (6x) [Bridge: Hitman] Yeah... I love her, I love her not She love's every minute of it though, No watch... But I'm a get her... just watch [Verse 5: Hitman] Yeah... Shoot me, star down 'til I really wanna meet you, Never lead me on 'til the time's right... I'm rollin' on feelings, tell me you feel it, The feeling of it in your right side I see us as one in the bright lights Romancing under the night sky More chances for me to prove me To you to know I'm the right guy, yeah [Chorus: Jet 2 & Brittney Jaii w/ Hitman adlibs] I want to be where you are Will you be my shooting star? Will you be my shooting star? (Brittney Jaii) (yeah) Shooting Star A sight to see near or far (yeah) Will you be my shooting star? (yeah) Will you be my shooting star? (star, yeah) Shooting star (3x) [Outro: Hitman] Yeah

[Intro] This is some shit I would've done at San José State. [Chorus] I'm on it, now I'm tired of waiting for so long (Why don't you baby, why don't you babe) Figured if I do then nothing can go wrong (Nothing can go wrong, go wrong) [Verse 1] Flyness, your highness, you pilot... righteous Every time... I say hi, I can't say bye to that 'Cause it's priceless Tryin' to pull on your strings like a kite kit Then wrap it around... my fit Like a snap-back, cap-hat Call it Cat in the Hat, that's my shhh... I'll be your Dr. Seuss, I'll be your masseuse I'll say the words that make you turn to juice Food so nice that you gotta say it twice, That p p... be my Cous Cous, ha... Yeah... damn di di damn I'm a fan of a ten getting tan with her friends Man understand hints, the words I say, I'm tryin' to get it in, C-N-N if you knew me You know that I'm a... Saint..Louis... I gotta ram... Oowee...get up in that Tootsie... Roll...that's chocolate candy And me? Smooth as can be Jump up in that water, Squarepants, get Sandy Tryin' to watch her blow, little chief, Ms. Kansas That's the guy code if you're searching for them answers Wow [Chorus 2x] I'm on it, now I'm tired of waiting for so long (Why don't you baby, why don't you babe) Figured if I do then nothing can go wrong (Nothing can go wrong, go wrong) [Bridge] Uhh, Let me feel that energy Let me feel that energy, let me feel that energy, oh (3x) Let me feel that energy... every single time we go, Go, gone [Verse 2] Make me want to fulfill your needs While I get you off your knees (nese) Like the suffix of Japan when you refer to the language Feeling like I speak it. Spilling like a free song, love it when you leak it S, s, sexy lady... I'm planting seeds in your vegetation Relax your mind, pay attention... Got you feeling like you're meditating... Ventilation, breathing heavy like you're ventilating Feel the air... in here, That's skin care, we call it Mentholatum Got you yelling, talking in exclamations No explanation, just exhalation And simple statements, The terminal's talking... Come in patience as I fly on in...ow [Chorus 2x] I'm on it, now I'm tired of waiting for so long (Why don't you baby, why don't you babe) Figured if I do then nothing can go wrong (Nothing can go wrong, go wrong)

Dark Knight 05:17
lyrics

[Hook] This is my energy from the inner me I'm a living being to infinity Yelling peace to my enemies That I don't really see, I'm a dark knight I'm more like Heath Ledger than Nancy Cartwright Word up, I see the villains in the house This is like the anthem for lost hope The riddler's in the house The puzzle for every bar's quotes [Verse 1] They unlocked me, started off a carbon copy I can feel it But the reason that I'm driven is shown every time I go They say if you listen close, you'll see what's really inside his soul And I cannot disagree, because I do every time I go If I'm in the glory zone and fallen under grace I take my certain leap of faith if I break before every time I grow But as of late, I've proven destiny is no accident I figured that a long time ago Beauty is in the eye, does it slip when you cry Is the pit full of fire when your heart's on ice And your love's grown lice right here where you stand And here is the now, but it's tied in a rubber band Trying to burn rubber, green light, green goblin All you have left is your lovely team mobbing In my early twenties thinkin' 'bout teen problems And a global crisis, now how can we solve it Wondering if I'm what the cause is 'Cause they say we knew it all right before we started All this, I must be the light within illuminating dark nights Ain't no politician, but I'm office Every single one of my Microsoft is a paw print And that's clues for you culprits This ain't Jurassic park, but living in this lost world I'm feeling as slow as a sloth, but as large as a walrus I go in, igloo for my mind, 'cause it's cold as the arctic Ocean, what happens when feelings go numb You no longer beat to the drum of a sergeant But instead you were charged like your marching On mars with the villains Breaking down buildings, King Kong 'em Going back and forth, ping pong 'em Like what could be right, I think wrong this is my life Just a couple things I battle with on a dark night [Hook] [Verse 2] Verse two is what I reverse to If speaking in third like words could reverse too Sittin' on this dark night drawing from inspiration Inside my imagination from everything that I've turned to Not the age but the number on the end of my name, I Carry a burden that's burning, I'm searching for the rain, I Feel I've been doing this forever under any weather And I'm here trying to think how can I top Under The Radar What the fuck is that? Good publishing, good promotion And now I gotta sit back and watch your deluxe edition Flourish while for a couple of years, I tucked the mission Currently, I'm in my room as the story goes So if this was a movie, that's where you would view me Right before the scene that the plot thickens And the main character becomes the protagonist, I'm stunned, I'm thinking I finally get it, I run Out of my room to the front door with a gun With bad intentions in my mind like If I ain't seen the lime light by now Then someone's gotta go down On this dark night, hop into a car Speeding, made a couple rights at a red light 'Til I seen a cop light stop right behind me Slowly creeping up to blind side me Look to the right, I pulled the tool that's beside me I blast, I know it wasn't right But that was just the anger coming outside of my mind That was on this dark night Plus the previous day, I seen Scarface And thought I was tough enough to take Scar's place Maybe that'll give a story to tell I'm going beyond, the glory's unveiled Moral of the story is I was just dreaming while I was sleeping Until I woke up to found out it wasn't real So here I am again from the second Rewound from the third, but fast forward to the present Which is back to the now, I'm trying to be a cash cow Through this rap music, but I'm just a class clown In reality, I had a dream like Martin Luther King About what I would do just to pursue the dream Not saying I would shoot just to pursue the dream But I'm just saying everything ain't what it seems Seeing Rockstar at the window and I'm like "what up?" I wake up to let him in and I'm thinking in my head I just had this dream I gotta tell him about that was fucked up And I'm like "Tune, remember when I text you right before I slept And I told you I was stressed dude? About the music game I just had a strange dream Could it be the reason, could it be the same thing? Could it be my premonition telling me that I ain't in the best position I was unaware, I felt the game was just unfair I need an opportunity to show my exhibition" That was when he asked me "why don't you just do it here?" Story of the untold, unborn legacy We are black rockstars living in forever, We realize that destiny is no accident, Wrekless Meant to keep it going even when pain is in excess As soon as I'm done with this track, I'll rewind it back To the second verse where I had slept But this time I'm fully awake With no gun in my hand and with RockstarTuNE I retrace my tracks, I erase my stress and replace my fears With the faith that I know with no bomb, we gon' blow up Everything is alright and this is my dark night, the stories told, what's up [Hook] [Outro: RockstarTuNE talking]

[Intro: Nella] Y'all just 'gon' sit there? I'm a need y'all to stand up! Ay! [Verse 1: Jet 2] Man I was a youngin' since I visioned about the mission Swear I had a plan, all I needed was God's permission Since the propeller days, I knew that I was here to stay I knew that I would never fade Since banging pots up in the kitchen Drummer boy, Jet 2 been through a lot to be specific Break a leg, oh shin(ocean) not to be Pacific Barely got the grades, but I was still out to be prolific Guess the teachers couldn't tell, But you could hear it in my lyrics Destiny is mine and success, I'm critically near it Always stayed inspired, I probably fought it if I feared it I skirr... if I was on the wrong path Family united, stayed away from division like long math But I seen the vision like a split inside the retina Going fishing, caught a Tetra, was as lost as professors Teaching the wrong class... But bet I'm found now, Screeching through the ears like a chalkboard long slash [Hook: Jet 2 & Nella] You know why? That feeling you can't fight the feeling, You're so high There ain't nothing like finally feeling you're inspired 'Cause I'm on a roll now, me they couldn't hold down Baby, this a showdown, nigga (Stand up) When they tell you slow down nigga (Stand up) If you wouldn't let it go down then you'll (Stand up) If you're on a roll, then when you (Stand up) They can never tell you sit down boy! [Verse 2: Vé317] Came in on my ten toes, Standing on my tip toes Looking for a woman I considered to have big goals Not one with a big noes that's tryin' to expose me Like Kobe, 'cause she wanna be nosey Said I wouldn't make it? Well it's Mr. All-Nighter No brakes, all tires, so they must've been mistaken See weed will get you high, But Vé'll get you inspired, Get you lifted get you higher like a grinder and a lighter And... I don't really care, because the Lord is my provider So the board that I was ridin' Got the ground shaking that's on the floor right beside us This is hot fire, you can call me Dilan Let bygone be bygone, I'm rapping to the pylon Because I need six figures, Got the knowledge up in my palm And I got that from my mom Typically, these rappers swear that they can limit me, But Bob Marley reincarnated and I'm hunting the indusrty Stay broke or go mainstream... Better flex yo' options I'm something they can't see, Underground like fiber optics, Who said that they can top it? Must've been a different topic Ever verse and every word that every person's ever heard Is too melodic, get yo' dollars! [Hook: Jet 2 & Nella] You know why? That feeling you can't fight the feeling, You're so high There ain't nothing like finally feeling you're inspired 'Cause I'm on a roll now, me they couldn't hold down Baby, this a showdown, nigga (Stand up) When they tell you slow down nigga (Stand up) If you wouldn't let it go down then you'll (Stand up) If you're on a roll, then when you (Stand up) They can never tell you sit down boy! [Verse 2: Jet 2] Word to Yaxxs fresh, denim blue, black vest Outfit off the chain, we call that interview tactics Used to be in pain, But now we're inspired, the tracks ripped Life is grade A like an honor student transcript Got the type of flow to make you wanna do a backflip I won't hit the J, but you can light it up and pass it Wrekless said I can do it, so I'm all about making classics We mastered the art of dreaming and we're a family, That's it... Seatbelt fastened... riding in the whip like we can't sit Moving faster than that traffic jam shit Setting goals and soon all of us move into a mansion We do it and you're surprised, We think like we planned this Tryin' to tour the whole world, we think like we planet Doing anything that it takes to withstand Any situation, occurrence or circumstance that happens Fresh on campus, you know you can't... stand it! [Hook: Jet 2 & Nella] You know why? That feeling you can't fight the feeling, You're so high There ain't nothing like finally feeling you're inspired 'Cause I'm on a roll now, me they couldn't hold down Baby, this a showdown, nigga (Stand up) When they tell you slow down nigga (Stand up) If you wouldn't let it go down then you'll (Stand up) If you're on a roll, then when you (Stand up) They can never tell you sit down boy! [Outro: Nella] That's what I'm talkin' 'bout, standing up! Wrekless! [Hook]

I can't really put a price tag on.. Those are the types of emotions that... Make me really wanna write that song Treat you like the music, make you feel it Kill two birds with one stone... Sorry for the wait but wait...wait... For now I'll take it slow... For now I'll take it... For now I'll take it slow Now I know you may feel like I'm super on it, But I'm patient tho 'Cause I'm a turn you on after I take it slow... Slow

[Verse] It's funny how the universe works, when I met you first I Really didn't believe the term that they say When it's love at first sight All it took was a glance at you View from a bird's eye It's funny 'cause you had wings too I seen it with my third eye On second guess, paths were different In the past I made some bad decision But you never know until you try it So I had to get it I spent over two years crafting the mission Only to find the love I did it for was missing Or didn't match the vision And that's a burden that's burning inside Imagine the feeling Of a brother you share the same passion with Having to admit that you never really had it You never really had it in the first place When at the time all I could see was her having my kids I'm ashamed The perfect love story starts when my mother feels That all this honest effort I'm putting towards music Is in vain Now tell me how do I explain All my sleepless nights I'm expressing only to ease the pain They tell me to be optimistic, I have yet to see a change But I can't argue with her though They say you ain't working if you ain't made no change I put my heart and soul into this music Not that I care for the fame But there's bills that have to be paid I took a thousand out my account to open for Elzhi Just to make an impression on his fans I jumped off the stage, I'm like damn What if I don't land, this is crazy still took the chance Thinking after the show I would get a record advance Let's just say things didn't quite go as planned Yeah, they loved the music but I only got a couple fans But a friend that can relate to me That's more important Maybe not to the public when you're playing the numbers game The closest ones to me that feel like I'm at their disposal Got me thinking should I be a christian rapper Or Trinidad James, I gotta make it... I found faith in Brittney Jaii And I promised Mya I would fly her out from Maine to L.A. One day when my due's paid, gotta make it to Paid Dues Just to show if you got a passion you keep you can't lose Got a couple female friends that overcame cancer And they'll tell you how strong the mind is if you would only ask them I watched Jamal record a song that really touched my heart I call Vé everyday to keep me level-headed I skype a queen that truly believed in me from the start I know a rockstar and to all of them, I'm forever debt-ed And to the girl that's always been on my mind If you listen I hope you know why I replaced the song As if you really care though, but what gets me like a scare-crow Is when I pop, I know you'll play it all the time Just to tell your friends like "look he was in love He even wrote a song for my birthday and stuff" Well this is kinda closure just to let you and I know That nothing's ever really over... But this is kinda over And to those that never really understood the mission I completed now you get to see the terminal's my soul, bruh And I made it back

[Verse 1] What are your dreams Tell me your aspirations Not many people take the mission back and make it Not many can distinguish between what is vague and Make reality out of a fabrication, yo I was living, dreaming, seen it Woke up like uff that I gotta see it Materialize like I really can feel it and fly Into the sky is where I am Hope to never land... And that's my plan [Chorus] You will never fly if you don't take chances But I know I am protected so I go, oh oh oh Searching through this life just to find answers All I really feel is love and that I know, oh oh oh I don't know where you've been going for so long What you've been through But I know that life was made for me and you This is the terminal [Bridge] Sometimes I feel what's going on What's going on with you And I know why you've been holding on To the truth [Verse 2] What are your goals Our sights divine So staring into your eyes is like a diamond mine I'm following your only guided light If it's happening now, that's how you know the time is right Just pick a thought... give it some focus You know you're getting closer if the feeling's hopeful And if you're far away, it's quite okay, you know You always can find a blessing when those moments are woeful Woah What are your dreams Tell me your aspirations I would love to hear it and say that You will surely make it Happen if you have the courage to embrace it Then those risks become wrists And life hands you a bracelet [Chorus] [Bridge] [Chorus]
