about

This is a track where I changed the cadence, flashing back to my younger days of hustling. Very true I did pay cash. It is an oxymoron, like I am serving my neighbors just to show off. It is not anything to be proud of, it is the view into the system and the streets. I tried to keep it fresh, but also conscious
Dan on the trumpet damn near made me cry. He really understood what pain, regret, and remorse sounds like.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Alone in oasis
This base kick
Folding up big faces
Top down joint lit
Cruising through this matrix
My razor never embraced faces
Just cocaine shavings
It built my savings
Oxymorons are just amazing
My trap Queen kitchen
Stayed jumping like the Waffle House
My lawyer Barry Sanders
Jukin’ cases with a lot of clout
Murking up the evidence
The jury got a lot of doubt
Chuck deuces to the bailiff
Told the judge
bruh look I gotta bounce
I’m in and out on verses
Like lambo on the autobahn
Switching lanes
Getting change
Elevation I be on
I got an ounce of Iverson
The studio already booked
Parental sent the beat
I told bro already got the hook

[Hook] (x2)
Product of environment
Early my retirement
Paid cash for my first package
No consignment
14 serving 50 blocks to my neighbors
Down a path of destruction
Just to flex on the haters

[Verse 2]
Ain’t it delightful
I spit so insightful
About being trifle
High as the Eiffel
My flow is like an AR rifle
I’m never stifled
I’m a black American idol
Fit for survival
Word to Ray
It’s the ghetto Bible
This war is tribal
We believers they in denial
I’m so versatile
They can never copy the style
Jockin for a while
They be plottin
Talkin at trial
I’m from the bowels
Infested with snakes
And crocodiles
Living foul
Like a predator
For prey I’m on the prowl
Wise as the old owl
Turned the powder in to pounds
And the flowers into sound
Boogie down to this dope
Black intelligent I’m hope
With this hustle I am woke


[Hook] (x2)
Product of environment
Early my retirement
Paid cash for my first package
No consignment
14 serving 50 blocks to my neighbors
Down a path of destruction
Just to flex on the haters
