Applause 03:21
CHORUS The Jobs never done Applause Never come And somebody might get it who aint starving like us But, When you living by your taste level People treat you like the devil So lets go lets go lets go The Jobs never done Applause Never comes Somebody might get it who aint starving like us But lets not worry bout them Applause never come And somebody might get it who aint starving like us But. When you living by your taste level People treat you like the devil So lets go lets go lets go The Jobs never done Applause Never comes Somebody might get it who aint starving like us But we aint worried bout them VERSE 1 I hope I get my cake and eat it too Made room for ice cream, saved the cherry on the spoon Tell a woman give me space like Sailor Moon Been spitting crack so long, I expect a raid soon Saw crack addicts, I grew up in Trap houses, Probably was a crack baby Love momma so I’m afraid to ask her This the aftermath of the chapter When I adapted to different lands on the atlas Colossal factor like a pack of velociraptors I do not follow these rappers I’m filling my calendar, World ready I juggle like Rico Rastelli If I slow down might miss the plane Got zero time to explain Life a collage, paper Mache My verses wet like a Percocet on the tongue Of a mumble rapper Who’s fucking our culture up for the fun of it For sale signs on stale rhymes Beware of mines and paradigms Please be kind rewind And listen with head phones Lyrically with the flow I done crippled more niggas than polio Life is a show Curtains won’t close Sometimes you gotta go, Through the test so you have testimony tho… I know.. The Applause never comes… The Jobs never done… VERSE 2 Acting like I don’t exist and got away with it Mankind, mandible claw put a sock in it Better that than me putting the Glock in it Compromise is not winning I spit that brillo pad with a flower in it The root of evil is bruised egos I’m on the move like diesel And I see you But I wouldn’t wanna be you So I’ma leave you there Even rare dudes Couldn’t see the box cause it’s a clear cube Turn the square 3d like Origami Getting watched by the helicopter, sweater bugotchi Pebbles in the water turn to Tsunamis Grew up watching Toonami Farr Well until Godly Came to conquer like an Anglo Saxion But the type to save a damsel from the Train tracks quick Brought a few packs looked what the cat dragged in.. The Loud pack yelling like Samuel Jackson Make everyday of life Saturday Night But what’s done in the dark will be dragged to the light Torture these rappers like Passion of Christ If ya Cup half-full add ice (RIIGHHHT) Crawling through leaves In Army Fatigue Everywhere is Holy Ground, just a cog in the machine Humble young man on foreign land Looks like I planned this shit out in advance But Stumbled made it part of the dance.

CHORUS X2 I’m that grimy nigga from the Northside Then I made my way up out the Northside But I came back to the Northside I guess I do this shit just for the Northside Northside, Northside Northside Northside, NORTHSIDE! VERSE 1 You tend to lose your innocence fast When You buying Debbie snacks through a bullet proof glass Hard to pass class when your daddy smoke crack And you gotta wear a mask to survive the back lash Had a lot up in my head as a snotty nosed kid My nigga got my back he had the shotty in the shed Colorblind, is the traffic light green or is it red? 1 thing I know for sure, I gotta be prepared It’s a warzone here Rules aint fair So I left the T-rex nest Where niggas meet death quick I must admit the DPS had me stressed Found an ounce in my dorm room, now they want the rest I’m blessed to be taking this college test Used to grab the strap before they did the locker checks Don’t follow our steps I’m tryna tell em put the guns down But they aint tryna do that, they wanna shoot the sun down Knowing that they will Holding on the steel I said Farr Well Cause Growing up feels Like Throwing up pills And doing Cocaine with a folded up bill System wanted me to fail Chameleon Life, I fit in well But It’s Northside For Life I’m So NFL Chameleon Life, I fit in well But It’s Northside For Life I’m So NFL

VERSE 1: I had to act like I aint know I was somebodies inside joke I go gorilla on a G.I. Joe, call me mighty Joe YUNG Super Mario on Green Mushrooms I’m always 1 up Dinosaurs aint know they time was up? They fossil Fuel I will knock you off your High Horse like we jousting in duel Dogwalking you poodles, grew up eating raman noodle The golden rule is make yourself useful Aint no loophole I had to put myself on Life harsh like the smoke from cigars Niggas tryna photobomb the movie but the jokes on ya’ll Ya’ll Jafars wont get passed the Sultans Guard Put crack in them tracks like a Junkys arm Invisibility Cloak Cloth what I’m Cut from Do me wrong get clock worked orange CHORUS: I had to make a House of Mirrors just so I could see myself … Look at you, you doing well And I can’t pass a public mirror without embarrassing myself You looking well, you looking well. Had to make a house of mirrors, so I could see myself. VERSE 2 Threaten to shoot the reflection when I look in the mirror I’m Robert Deniro in Taxi Driver Sea Farer.. They copy pirates like pet parrots I’m dark as mascara and eyeliner.. On an emo but it’s happy Hour Life a movie Directors and jealous niggas out to shoot me The groupies getting choosy My girl afraid to lose me I’d rather ride in my hoopty than let her scoop me I’m Vanilla Sky Fly, She might try to Tom Cruise me So I never let her drive I’m the fucking guy now When the coffee tables turned I was sipping Dark Chai I cry tears of joy Need Mops for the puddle My struggle is a paradox, Pandora box puzzle Not humble I lack manners, I’m handsome They talking shit about Santa but still sit on his lap Pat myself on the back! Not supposed to be favored, But A-Graded by sociology Majors Roleplaying with the faces in my house of mirrors Bridge: X2 Are you talking to me? You must be talking to me? Cause I'm the only 1 here. Mirror, Mirror on the wall Who is the illest of them all Mirror, Mirror on the wall I swear to God I'm Iller than all of ya'll

VERSE 1: Tryna throw away everything I know Kept a couple stowaways, but they underneath the boat 1 player story mode, and there aint no cheat codes Got a girl who’s bad for me like Marilyn Monroe Paranoia from the smoke Late night parties Dirty mirrors full of coke Fortune cookies weird quotes That was close Don’t get taken by a ghost Cause there’s so much more than the path that’s shown I’m enjoying lifes joys Self employed Got vices like Roy Flow sparkle like Lacroix I don’t cling to my perspective Or live on the extreme of a spectrum You niggas believe in too many things I don’t have no haters, I don’t have no enemies People love misery So I don’t let em visit me Red wagon memories Child hood dreams I’m Pinocchio free, no strings on me CHORUS: The Sunshine, the sunshine The sun shining on a real 1 The sunshine, the sunshine The sun shining on a real 1 The sun shining The sun shining The sun shining on a real 1 baby VERSE 2: And I just heard a rumor that I’m Gay If that would change the way you view the boy then you a lame Sun Shining like Hawaii I should play the Ukelele I feel like any day aliens will come and save me Tell Geordi beam me up I got them Geordi glasses cause the star lights beaming on us And everythings looking up I grew up in them sewers With the rats but the turtles in the alley turnt mutant Less opinions everyday got me feeling less human Through dua, Disappear like ships in the Burmuda Building bridges to the otherside Gooneys never die And its still Northside For Life, I can’t hide it Farr Well so many times they don’t invite him I should stop saying hellos and goodbyes then Ok aight then This is no Country for old men Llewellyn dies in the end

CHORUS: And you don’t gotta care about anything except for today, Say Fuck tomorrow Middle finger to the World, I done beat my depression today Fuck living in sorrow My team headed straight to the top we great But we came from the bottom And we just out here tryna live in our peace, our peace We aint tryna be bothered Aint tryna be bothered Not tryna be bothered, we aint tryna be bothered And we just tryna be great today Fuck Tomorrow VERSE 1: I spend my time plotting Grinding for a future date Don’t need to see it today I’m living for tomorrow Sand pouring in the glass I’m tryna freeze the bottle So I can write my thoughts down And Binge read novels Theres not enough hours in a day to be great Need wiggle room so I can make mistakes on the way In a rush to meet fate Is time fake and in my head? Sometimes I have a hard time getting out of bed Barely getting by but find time to get high I guess its better that than me committing suicide Too many things to do I’m feeling like its do or die Split my wrist in the tub that’s a blood bath Cigarettes for stress lifes a tough task Self cares a must have so I turn the screens off Didn’t check my email, naw I aint read 1 I don’t know what’s going on I might take a week off Just to be present in the moment and do nothing CHORUS : What do you jack off to (to to to) What do you masturbate to But I would never judge you BeCause I Jack off too (masturbate too) VERSE !: These girls around my City keep playing That’s why my floor is full of socks that I came in My porn downloads use my bandwidth Mike Queenz said that I should watch a trans flick So I watched a chick suck a womans dick If I said it wasn’t hot I’d be full of it I met this girl that told me what she really like Things her man was too afraid to try but I might Shit I got a preference and a type myself so I admire that And sometimes I be whack So if you don’t CUM when I CUM You can come when I come back This 1 girl tried to force my hand said I had to learn Said it’s her turn cause she sick of never getting hers An orgasm feels better than wealth So if I cant get no help I’ma do this shit myself

Chorus: Feeling like the Walls is Closing in Chilling in the party there's ho's in here Champaign and Bacardi in the... chandelier Chilling at the party there's ho's in here Feeling like the walls is.... Verse 1: Is the image in the mirror clear I lost control of the steering wheel Fear.. is false evidence appearing real Feeling weird cause things finally going my way Used to thumbs up, hitch hiking on the highway Grew up rough watched chumps throw they life away I guess that’s why I’m paranoid like Kelly Anne Conway Spies in the microwave Feeling out of place Conspiracy theories and government plots get blamed For everything I achieve But what if it was God or forces I can’t perceive Secret Societies on the scene Dark figured man unseen hand It follows me everywhere to make sure I’m on the path I’m Living in the Truman show, my life is a sitcom Tried to piece the jig saw and fell into a pitfall And The Villagers with Pitchforks Wanna see a witch burn Walls closing in I don’t know which way to turn

CHORUS: (X2) We’re the Aliens That we’ve been looking for Spent a lot of time in the stars tryna find them worlds Abduct me and beam me up on board UFO Spinning we about to take this bitch on tour The World is Yours VERSE 1: Pyramid Homes On the other side of the fence Grass green with the bearded Gnomes Lawns aint mowed where the weirdos roam Live life tryna figure out the unknown War in the stars get attacked by the clones Ya’ll niggas need deeper poems I’m the Father, Darth Vader to toddlers Death Star bars Strong arm a skywalker Cut ya hand off you’ll need a robotic one No, I am not in a rush It’ll come to me on a plate, Jabba the Hut Only thing over here that settles is the dust Keep up, found out that the Aliens was us Crash land get me, Grand plan in me Young Christ walking through the City But I still respect the Gods who made History Cause you could get struck with the lightning Rod Got more arms than a Hindu GOD To play the game of life on Nintendo Knobs Captain of the ship no Eye Patch on There’s no walls to the off limit truths Unravel self and become something new Aliens in grey suits, space pods on the roof Landing on my feet aint need the parachute Afficionado of Hiphop There’s no tomorrow for False bravado Like Johnny Bravo I go Bazarro on Supermannn

Bridges 04:15
Verse 1: I been through the wire Lost brothers to Gun Fire Hidden like a dragon, I been crouching like a tiger Sipping Budwiser Kicking it with southsiders From the Northside Getting treated like an outsider Live a double life, but not like Mrs. Doubtfire I built bridges from the Northside to take my worlds higher Made a life I drew it on, A sheet of paper Haters making voodoo dolls Got em sick like they going through withdrawls Spitting till I’m out of breath Don’t know how many hours left So I live my truth because a coward dies a thousand deaths Know they feel some type of way Lifes a giant peach like James Could never miss this shit I’m 3D goggles in yo face Couldn’t rap with us back in the day We are not the same Can’t complain I’m in my lane They be playing race car games No longer in Chameleon phase Mask off like Nick Cage John Travolta Found change, arm inside the Sofa Verse 2: If the bridge burn down I will swim To the otherside of myself dive in They don’t know where I have been Chameleon glare my eye balls spin No Tall Hair I’m a big wig But I get in where I fit in So I don’t need no Myers Brig Everything I did built up to this So I cant look up to this I been tryna make sense of the chaos The Chameleon and aztek had a face off Cut my heart out in the temple of the Jaguar Sacrifice to the mouth of GOD Pigs and Hogs I’m the Big Bad wolf, blowing down your HOUSE OF CARDS Grandmastah to the Grasshoppers I don’t belong but it wont be long Only Peacocks! Get rewarded in society So I love you for who you are not the things that you tryna be. New path, a lot like the old 1 But now its fully mines. Folks tryna claim they got left behind And I forgot my roots But that’s not true I needed opportunity to be something new They doing evil deeds like the Belgium King of the congo, But I’ll make a ghost out of Leopald Ya’ll niggas better leave me alone but to each his own Came from War torn corner stores Seen other Worlds that were unexplored like the oceans floor Nobody left to act normal for The house of hiphop has open doors I’ma serial killer with Chloroform Don’t let me in. I’m from over north Here to terraform the porridge bowl into Goldilocks Zone I hope that’s not your final form.
