Ayo
The taxi cab ride, new destination
Waiting on homie bail, he jailed for 10 days
Let em free, he gon feel the membrane he was praying
Patience remained an essential, instrumental was sentimental
To the ones who hating, all I'm saying is I ain't got no plans to settle
I'm as hot as a kettle, the metal sharpness pedal slower
I Was sober for 5 days, and noticed addictions wren't mind games
In addition to shorter time frames, I studied the crime rates of rappers
All they do make my mind ache, from the time to time they fill me with laughter
But sometimes I got me thinking
I breath from the spliff blinking
I'm sinking myself deeper
I can't sleep when sobriety is closer
And every October the memories of rock bottom return
I sit under money trees in autumn as the wind blows and turns
I built a bridge, the synagog was just down the street
My homie sat with me, the last cover left the tape series complete
I got where I needed to be and upgraded my reputation
The mason jar of bush, I medicated and celebrated the times it took
I looked back at the man I used to be and was left shook
Halfway crooks would book it, the pot was cooking
Rice pudding on the counter beside
I was bound to leave a sound of mine behind
Whatever created the loss, I debated whether it was worth the cause
I make raps for the ones who was there for me in a time where I was lost
