[Verse]
I'm not one, of those guys that pull up in the whip
I pull up on the bicycle
But still get July colder than Pop-sickles
Sending shivers up your spine when I rhyme
Giving you arthritis all the time when I chime
In on your cool don't mean to be rude nor intrude
'Cause I got that style that don't make no sense, to your cerebral
Somebody get these cats a visual
'Cause they ain't attracted to the flow unless its physical
Riches that they rapping 'bout, really its despicable
How the mind can be so confined
To rapping about the same stuff mixtapes and albums worth of time
Its hard being the middle child
Expected to walk in the shadows of my older
Siblings while setting an example for my younger
Curious eyes watching me as the fam just sit and wonder
Life is really a boat
Will it float or just go under
Its gonna be a stormy day as I look up to the sky
And the clouds eyes get puffy and start to cry
The raindrops kamikaze my Pearl Harbor
And faint shots from a camera remind my mom of my ghost father
I gotta spit lyrics to cover the feelings that it harbors
Nitro equip my ship so my ship can coast farther
The nitro is the only thin stopping the Jewellsta from committing a slaughter
Is the nitro, and the nitro brand name is called faith
And I have faith in a brighter day
Looking at my circumstances with a brighter face
Brighter views, and I've never been afraid to be an individual
Though this same individualism I'm sure was the source of my many duels
But I don't mind helping the few that's still lost
To follow the road less traveled by like Robert Frost
Yo I'm no stranger to struggle
I used to hustle myself
So when they ask is it safe, I ask is it really safe to tell?
'Cause times get hard and situations unpredictable
And sometimes it feels like the love of the fam is not even unconditional
And scenes get steeper than canyons
Feel like we falling, no landing
Our lives must be artwork, and we ain't even controlling the painters canvas
We ain't powerful enough to paint the pictures with our own lives
All we can do is go with the flow, and take cautious strides
Trying to avoid becoming a caucus left by the side
Even if it means breaking the law
Becoming a caged animal without pride
Or a second chance at a normal life
Without a second glance you're looked upon as a vampire in 30 Days Of Night
Its like, risk it all or be broke
Sell candy or sell dope
The thought of this is like a junky on withdrawals
How is he to cope? Put this topic under the scope
And analyze how everybody is not born rich
I cannot emphasize this enough, growing up
I had to be raw steak tough
Come with the funk 'cause Mama wasn't raising no punks
I was the raisin in the sun
In a batch full of grapes
Squashing the competition to my composition
Making my way, through all the bull of the times
And that's it, we almost at the end of the chapter
The chapter ends there is no more
That's the end of the war
Now I'm out in Royal Oak witnessing new scenes
With new schemes and new friends
I still remain a nuisance
I'm not one I'm not one I'm not one
Of those guys without trials and tribulations once the day is done I'm not one
