come inside the classroom, take off your jackets open up to chapter one, the study of the classics this is not your average, teacher who is speaking more like some extra reading I've been sneaking on my weekends cus i cannot get away from this, rapping i was made for this study hall is like a tape to demonstrate my faithfullness to everyone before me who expanded on the art form I tilt my snapback hat and put my hand up on my heart for em its been a long time since we cared about the elements five essential parts of hip hop intelligence if you were an mc you'd rock the mic with eloquence bringing lyrical embellishment to your relatives if theres evidence of your excellence your selling this never been dependent on your popness or your relevance i got this im the excrement, the shit in layman's terms im hotter than the temperature of pits where satan burns back in that state of mind, in the place and time where i'm looking for a light, yeah a way to shine back in the view to see, i do this fluently representing my community i'm doing me, it ain't for you to be a critic i just live it spit it truthfully raise your hands to the place where the roof should be and then listen to my lyrics laced through the beat and i'm the one, always keep some heat like a gun except its near the street on my feet i can run at any given moment if you notice sneakers laced tight cobra with the vocals bringing dopeness like a snake bite its hopeless i don't play fight, everything is real if you focus and your aims right, better get a deal man thats always in the movies but not everything is reel you cannot flood the market when the levy has been sealed so without further ado, i welcome you to study hall come in hurry one and all even if you're young and small you can still take notes about this generation past that laid down the foundation that was set in place to last they expanded on the early rap that grew out of the eighties which was built upon the soul music they knew when they were babies which all grew out of the blues, mixed with gospel and with jazz now its time for me to add my own i thought you'd never ask

why they eyeing me? is it the sneakers or the fly society, i find some irony in the fact they telling me to mind the hierarchy and try for minor league cus time ain't right for me if music is a mental skill then mines a higher key im thinking why’d they lie to me and say they didn't feel it as if i've already finished with my music and i've sealed it in an envelope with all my hopes and then they thought  they'd kill it but this is not a hobby or phase i will not finish even when the fat women sings it won't diminish this music is a movement, the kind i want to share with you so use it for amusement if that is what you care to do the truth is i just do this cus these words keep coming outta me sometimes i write in silence when the beat just seems too loud to me regardless im the hardest of these artists coming live to you with music sweet as honey so my tape is like the hive to you be wary i could sting you without floating like a butterfly i fly more like a falcon cus im faster than these other guys but im not here to brag and boast im here to kick some bars to you the other night i had a dream that i could pick some stars to shoot they fell right out the sky and so i caught em and i kept em and i put em in my pocket thought i'd use em as a weapon it felt good to have protection from the darkness thats surrounding me but then i opened up my eyes and saw what was around to see my sheets were on the floor from tossing turning in my sleep and the music from my dream had turned back into a beep, beep, beep you need to get up, wake up, stop sleeping on me cus im steady shining like i got a beacon on me get up out the bed man open up your blinds if you listen while i'm spitting i can open up your mind open up your mind these dopest quotes i spoke i hope will open up your mind

hop out the shower i'm late and i gotta get to work its hourly rate so each minutes gotta purpose feeling worthless, holding back a morning yawn its aight though cus i got my favorite jordans on make a little coffee, breakfast, grab my coat and keys thinking bout this verse last night that i wrote with ease funny how most rappers always hope to be as dope as me but i'm not even mentioned when they focus on local scene see i'm always back at school, and if i'm home im working between that and my artwork barely time to fit a verse in let alone some tweeting, Facebook updates on the weekend and they wonder why i don't get the approval that i'm seeking most rappers work the weed sale me im working retail trynna make some money saving dollars for the details working nine to five trynna strive for that kinda life be that kind of guy with a future looking shiny bright its not minimum wage, but aint that heavy weight name tag everyday, same drag yesterday work, work, work so i'm working  one to nine feeling like my life is undefined by any one of my plans for life and i wonder why Most people let their creative minds be always undermined Not digging deep enough so these golden thoughts go undermined  I told you for the Hundredth time I'm old enough to stun you blind  but thats just in my mind man my body can't buy rum or wine cus i'm still under age and i know that i'm still under paid until the day i'm on an island somewhere lying under shade I spend my time in studio industrial designing In the morning ride the bus and so I bust a couple rhymes in Hustle just to shine and get nothing for my grind Still I Love it when my lines let the public see my mind Rocking jordan fives and some khaki pants no happenstance  see i’m fresh in half a glance Be the best yeah that's my plan Life can happen rather fast cant get back whats after passed  I could die tomorrow but today I'll stand and laugh at chance its not minimum wage, but aint that heavy weight name tag everyday, same drag yesterday work, work, work its not minimum wage, but aint that heavy weight name tag everyday, same drag yesterday work, work, work

these square MC's never understanding me drop the m like dropping e just to feel my energy rhymes like einstein, smoother than a fine wine asking for a casket i’ll leave you a pine shrine Im crazy on these tracks like a loco locomotive place me on the map with these quotes I hope you'll notice i'm adding to the movement every note just helps to grow this i'm blooming fast as lightning on the road just like a lotus hard to figure out, man my thoughts are like a rubik's cube pensive minded music steady booming as i'm cruising through maneuvering the subaru, stick shift in this sick whip the outsides kinda muddy and the seats but i don't nit pick more change inside the drawer than the cash thats in my wallet my phones lost on the floor somewhere i hope someone will call it and i'm running just a little late juggling my dinner plate but of course i keep on singing with the music man i think its great cutting cross the beat like I was slicing a shiitake flow is always colder than the ice thats in the Rockies won't stop until your ears will bleed i'm Tyson mixed with rocky when I'm writing you can't stop me, my Drive is just so cocky   Even when i didn't have a License I was probably Speeding through your neighborhood I need a little break from good Cus I've been nice so long just supporting like a table should My legs are made of able wood never let em break or fold But I just want to take the mold and smash it and then change the world and I've heard enough saying that its all been tried before They say its locked the key is lost but ill just pry the door "thats not what your mind is for, listen to the Mayan lore keep on working 9 to 4" muther fucking dinosaur 24 hours, working seven days a week pennies won't add up you know you wont get paid to sleep when your'e trynna make it with the alphabet from A to Z

I feel the summer breeze, the waves are under me sun is shining down and it seems no harm could come to me but even so my thoughts are dark, defensive as i pen this i'm locked inside this crate you can't relate cus you're not in this starving artist on the farthest march with words that i am wielding keep em guarded with some marble arches perfect for their shielding cus these darkest arts are hardest when you're certain what i'm feeling so i mask up all my thoughts like their a burden i'm concealing i always stow emotions well behind some stoic poses face as hard as stone is at the bottom of the ocean if you're hoping for an open book filled with doves and roses their all frozen as hypnosis cus i chose that i would close it they don't notice how i grow this, so i keep my thoughts the coldest and focus all my energy to spark alight creative minds i say my rhymes and leave cus i don't really need to waste my time chasing shine, i see this lane and i'mma take whats mine fear i'm not feeling it anger not hearing it pain i keep concealing it uh huh i hope i heal a bit trust, theres no appeal to it lust i gotta deal with it just giving you realer shit uh huh i hope you're hearing it i'm not feeling it never would be stealing it you try to show your style but you should be concealing it you try and share your thoughts but their not worth the time i'd say prepare to flop, but theres fights for first in line
when the wackest shit is dropping man theres nothing worse to find cus thoughts don't really sell, they don't want to hurt you're mind
a price to pay for caring is the judgement worth the crime? am i the only one who really loves it when the rhymes
bend across the syllables and shape together words
in a complex combination just to make a better verse
each line is packed with meaning, every word has got a purpose
and the cadence fits in perfectly not hurried and not nervous
don't think its just the words, of course i like bass that forces my face like torque when i race but your musiics all so simple i'm bored in five plays sounds like you're still in school in the fourth through ninth grade (your flow) i'm not feelin it (the message) i'm not hearing it (talent) you're not showing it uh uh, i hope you grow a bit (your sound) theres no appeal to it (my thoughts) you gotta deal with it i'm just giving you realer shit uh huh i hope you're hearing it

Summer nights they fade away Faster than they used to go still we had the greatest days chasing what we used to know chasing what we used to know chasing after faces and the places that we used to go when i write each word is bright every syllable and letter shines from inside of my clever mind i’m bringing you some better rhymes but never mind the weathers fine id rather just take in the sun text my friends, see if they in, to hit the lake at one we’re grilling by the waters edge with music in the air if its not time for work than i just do this in my spare napping under oak leaves and slowly this whole tree is swaying in this dope breeze thats got me feeling so pleased my mind is full of punchlines the sky is full of sunshine but this shade has got me laid up straight up chilling after lunchtime cracking jokes to have a laugh, tap into that magic hat feeling good and its a fact i rap and i don't have to act look at that i'm back on track i just can't keep it off my mind don't understand these cats who nap and say that they are off their grind i’m moving in my sleep how a shark swims in the deep and always keep my head up cus that the peak is pretty steep Summer nights they fade away Faster than they used to go still we had the greatest days chasing what we used to know chasing what we used to know chasing after faces and the places that we used to go summers faded now and my friends are getting faded too laughing, drinking, smoking man you know that their my favorite crew of course we got the green, are sneakers black ,the lake is blue weather still is hot but today we choose to play it cool in a couple days we both will be away at school cannot play the fool must get back to the grind now we're passing the time, we can laugh and rewind look back on every ass that smashed that was fine every whore that we could score with and the stories from the morning after man i swore that was before… who, her? she was last year never mind thats weird back to what we're rhyming bout i feel like we're the finest out try to tell em that i'm more than just a boring rapper engage in discourse that matters when recording tracks the skills we have now, in four years or more we'll master graduate with honors, start to move this forward faster touring past the scornful bastards thought we'd be torn and tattered so put your hands up toward the rafters wave em side to side raise them high as the sky as the days fly by

I'm fly as a pteranodon ran it like a marathon When I die they'll say that I had balled like my hair was gone The vicious visionary, coming with my wit and daring Also got ambition but they're Not gone tell me Which to carry on the bottom aiming up, opposite of missionary swear to god that I won't ever stop til my tip is buried but fuck it I'm sill having fun when I do this shit adventures that I lead you on like I'm an elusive bitch Never let you take me out , make no mistake about my intentions in this venture, knew when i entered for those with thirst for realness, i've come to quench ya standing like a center in the center of attention looking over heads like they look over me with mentions in the booth i am an athlete, i'm active when i'm speaking sliding cross the beat like i was practicing my defense fast as when i'm speeding how i'm mastering the sequence you never making goals i get hat tricks and repeat them  you swimming in the shallows, i backflipped off the deep end it must be weird for you to see a rapper who's not beefing just calling out those sleeping on a mattress made of sequins you're an actress on the weekends, so i'm laughing when you speaking claiming that you're real but its not action that i'm seeing cuss half of you are preaching and the other half repeating but no one seems to follow chasing after what i'm seeking and thats the realest music, so let the healers use it to penetrate your mind with pensive thoughts and not confuse it  the dopest lines i give you, snort em, don't abuse it don't know what my brains been through, sort of, bout to lose it so i pour it in my music, i lay it on these beats when i say it its released, never playing when i speak im thorough with rhymes you never heard of this kind my word is so sublime that a third of the time i've got to cover up my sight so i don't burn up my eyes cus my lyrics are as bright as a pearl when it shines you never, heard of a mind thats as learned as mine i can travel throughout space, i can hurdle through time just gotta think and in one blink i'll be  jumping through ages  your brain just seems to shrink like its hunched up in some cages or stuck in the matrix, never know whats real not fucking with that fake shit, you better know the deal I'm poet in his prime quarter through my life line If you notice this in time then I'm on the right grind Im so focused on my rhymes I don't see you write lines These little white lies say I'm not the right kind Cus they want another pop star and not an educator They say that biggers better But I think that less is greater cuss all i really need is a beat to kick my thoughts on Something I could cruise to acting like the top gun Everybody's day will come don't act like you don't got one Giving you my story so I'm rapping til the plots done

i give it to you so straight no diggity so sick no hate flow wickedly any beat any day pro symphony making music with my words so vividly flows wet no sweat go swim with me keep my dignity won't be played by no industry you're like the infantry i'm generally and typically the holy trinity not meant to be the ministry to me its empathy, knowledge mixed with liberty i hope that realizations something i can live to see till then im simply trynna give this world some symmetry by bringing imagery both visually and rhythmically so come and sit and see this work that i unfold for you the words i told are true, never making molds of you cuss i'm the one and only pensive you could ever know take you on journey to extents that you would never go Travel deep inside my mind as I give to you The way I'm living dude promise that this shit is true Don't get it misconstrued I've never had a hit its true Never gotten in the news but hopefully you'll listen to My music then you'll use it to escape inside your own thoughts I want my fans to all be pensive not be robots So make your own plot follow after what you love Tomorrow will eventually come never leave it up to luck  It's simple up is up and that's the only way ill go Until the day I'm old and bout to leave this place I know Til then I'm living large but only by the minute hand Cus time is precious I don't ever want to live it bland So it's extra cayenne to the eye glands Let it burn if you cannot see that my plan Will change the game it won't ever seem the same again  And they won't ever mention great without my name again i'm pensive minded, ready for action spent some time, i'm better at rapping i'm getting some traction, people start to notice that i'm bringing back the passion and i'm making it the focus cus i get a little hopeless seeing how these other dudes keep on making number twos when they're in the fucking booth that some shit for those of you who cannot follow the truth is hard to chew and even harder when you swallow

when she smiles its like sunshine it helps me unwind forget the unkind, focus on the sublime im keeping positive, but even sometimes i see the opposite, and i'm of one mind to simply leave it all, i think that freedom calls but thats just doubt thats talking when i think i see a flaw its simple we belong, couldn't leave alone the thought that i was missing what i still don't seem to own still don't seem to have it, isn't something plastic definition stretching quick as something like elastic its a classic passion that is well above the average never passive with the action like that ass we keep it active just imagine lying next to you, always makes it seem Like every moment i'm alive's just a waking dream a place so deep in thought that only i could paint the scene i could fill the kings spot she could take the queens and i could make my art and she could take my heart and there'd never be a reason that we'd need to break apart i cant get it off of mind think about it every time i turn around and see it i thought i wouldn't need it but now it seems i'm falling into sunshine I'm falling I'm falling I'm falling The sun is shining down I don't think that there could ever be A better way to spend the day then when it's just you and me we're scrubbing in the kitchen, in the oven theres a chicken i'm loving who i'm with and theres nothing here thats missing but there's something on my mind cus I want you all the time I won't front I cannot lie from the front or from behind your body's way too perfect and your smile makes it worth it you know that you can work it and its more than just the surface can't believe just half a year ago i never even knew ya but within a couple weeks i'd already seen our future its a tour of karma sutra every time we lay together kissing you all over cus your skin's soft as suede and feathers body draped in lace and leopard, promise that we'll stay together in whatever rain and weather it can only change for better when we both just care about each other and our happiness its nothing like that sappiness or i would not be rapping this its something thats original and far from being fictional you can hear in every syllables i love you and i'm missing you i cant get it off of mind think about it every time i turn around and see it i thought i wouldn't need it but now it seems i'm falling into sunshine I'm falling I'm falling I'm falling

you gotta give a minute listen up cant be missing what im trynna show you its not the way that i wish it was but you can't change what they will or won't do they told me wrong place thats the music from the ghetto, they told me wrong time thats the sound of the retro maybe all of you need to chill and just let go i thought hip hop was the music of the rebel Fresh breeze from the west means The winters fading and it's time to plant your best seeds Time to grow not to rest see And make your move like a chess piece Ive got game like the Espys, the recipe For some change in the next week So live it up like your next scene could be your last Or zip it up like some guess jeans heed the past The stories that you listen to are more than just a fiction dude horrors in the institute will force you to be in a noose soon as you have run your use, then they will be moving on leaving you without a clue, guessing if your musics wrong but nothings wrong with you just the system that you live in pressure all around you yeah they're wishing you would give in but i don't even notice i don't listen when you spitting i just keep on going on a mission with writtens i'm a poet known for stoic faces always racing always running man i'm going places on the mic never known for basics got that complicated flow man i'm so insane with every rhythm that i give em, every rhyme that i try if you listen when i'm spitting, then your mind is as fly its a given i've got vision, keep my eyes to the sky but i'm living with my mission steady biding my time till the day that i can blow up, like breathing at the ceiling when you all become my fans, when i reach you i can feel it success is like a cold breeze, i feel a little hot though so i'm blowing out the pot smoke and grinding till i'm not broke painting all these verses man i'm fresher than the top coat from my montana spray can and I wont ever swap flows or stop so keep moving, all my methods proven like clifford smith i'm quick to get the the green and then keep cruising

i'm headed home i worked a long day i put the windows down, and let the song play the beat is kinda loud, what that song say? I just follow on the rhythm of the strong base we're cruising past the time its seems its moving fast in line we cannot lose it we have to shine don't know if there's a place to go after time i try to beat the sun home leaving from the grind but by the time i come home evening has arrived i know that i'm still unknown, believe me i will rise people who hear one poem see with every rhyme that my freedom is sublime, they believe that i will shine so bright with all my light that you'll need screening for your eyes like the sun in mid july clouds receding from the skies so clear with all my visions you could read in every line wont give you just my 2 cents, i'll treat you with a dime can't give you the whole dollar cus i need it to survive in this cold cold world man i'm freezing up inside when i see that most these places filled cheating and with lies always try to change you but their reasons in disguise their smiling in your face while they're reaching for their knives if you're seeing in your mind that you'll lose quite fast you'll be leaving just in time if you cruise right past i'm headed home its been a long night played some pong and the homies packed that bong tight til everybody there was lifted like a long flight now we're fly and it only sees this songs right we're cruising past the time its seems its moving fast in line we cannot lose it we have to shine don't know if there's a place to go after time party in apartments cus in truth i hate the dorms but a part of me is partial to any place where ladies swarm sneakers grey and orange and the shoes laced loose drinking grey and orange yeah the juice chase goose its got me feeling fly while you stay cooped my favorite chicks are here and her roommates too and that liquor shes been sipping has a fruit taste dude passing round the jay, like “you blaze too?” and our crew makes use of the bass inside the speakers while we blazing up the reefer and we're taking in the G-ness of DPG or Nate dog, rest in peace to Nate dog also was a genius you were blessing me with faith god turn it up a little, neighbors knocking at the door we'll be locking it for sure they wont bother us no more got the right groove on with a nice smooth song sit back and just relax let the night cruise on

shorty looking fly as hell in her highest heels knew that she was loose but i didn't notice she was high as well didn't mean to stare, but that was just a try and fail golden like where midas fell had me in the tightest spell asked her if she wants to dance, says she might as well grabbed me by the hand i could feel she liked to bite her nails maneuver through the crowd i don't even know her name yet pretty soon were moving like we almost have the same sweat back to holding hands she just gave the over shoulder glance i could feel her grinding on me like i was a pole to dance turned around and grabbed me said lets find a place upstairs i just nodded and i followed set my bottle on a chair the nearest door was locked and the bathroom had a line two girls came walking toward us one was laughing one was crying they just pointed down the hallway when i asked them where we'd find a spot, the door said private but we walked right past the sign I opened it the room was full of opiates no hopeful kids with smokers lit of toking hits thats smelling like the dopiest shit coffee tables coated with some lines they're doing coke off it some local kids providing what these students fill their noses with I turned around to walk right out but something pulled me back her fingers still were clenched in mine, and she was holding fast some girl had called her name, but i still didn't catch it she said "that girl is my friend can we say hi for just a minute" so we sat down on the couch and when the L came back around i didn't pass it I just ashed it thought that is would calm me down they didn't seem to mind with another passing round and their nugs all on the table as if its a massive mound this dude said that the J was only half and half with weed with tobacco or some other shit? "just take a drag and see" instead i passed it as he asked "do you want a tab of E? no charge if its for you girl i got this bag for free i turned around to tell her yo thats not a good decision it was already in her mouth so i knew she wouldn't listen put an upper on her tongue, didn’t know that it was laced now shes tripping high as heels and her sole feels out of place sneaker her out the back so we can can find a spot to kick it hope she'll boot a bit so she doesn’t feel so twisted i told her not to take it but she just shooed me away i avoided going toe to toe but how could i have known the ho would pop something so strong that it could leave her in a comatose must have felt the pressure after watching people blow the snow now she's cold as ice and i'm wishing that i closed the door finding out some things that i never would have known before

one time for your mind two times for every time that i blind you with a line where every single letter rhymes i haven’t done it yet so keep your ones up in the sky but if you ever wanna bet i wouldn’t come up against i a pro with all these tools, a lyrical technician exposing all these fools put fear in the best christians i remember being little and hearing a jet wishing that i could be as fly a miracle thats missing now my talents through the roof, i'm here with my next mission i only see the truth you peer with my inept vision and barely even spot me out, fake is what i'm not about i'll keep spitting wisdom to them till they see the thought is out till they think in pensive minds, leave all of the fence behind and open up to anything that you could comprehend in time in the meantime i'll keep showing you the reason why i feel this way it feeds my mind with seeds in time that grow into a field of grain this artist then can harvest it and bring you words and visions the hardest thing so far has been if people heard the rhythm the over smoothest over jazz beats i’m getting mad freaks, making ladies smile like a baby with some fat cheeks clear that im an athlete the way that i am running this training on the track wouldn't want to get in front of this instead just get in back of this and help as i attack this shit and lead where you will follow like a pack of rabid activists i'm actually quite passionate for rapping as a form of art so don't conform and start to ruin this 'fore i perform my part still got a lot to say so don't cut my microphone yet my lyrics are a known threat to those outside my own set the coldest with the verbals got entendres in the tundra and i’m aiming for the top cus i’m not fond of what i’m under thats a hundred other rappers who aren’t really filled with hunger when my stomach growls like thunder you should probably duck for cover cus my minds bright like lightning, i write like i'm striking lyrics leave you bruised like you fight twice with tyson you might like to bite him, in the back of your mind so grab the track and rewind don’t miss these accurate rhymes if you think that i won't notice better practice your lines i could crush your whole persona like i’m cracking your spine leave you laughing behind, with barely half of your mind while i flash past fast as an accura drives
