Storm (feat. Abstract Orchestra)

Kurt, Jimi, Janis

Amy died at 27

Jesus died at 33

I turned 40 on the beach

What’s so special about me

He turned water into wine

And I turn torment into rhymes

Put my fortune on the line

I Set my pride aside like over

A thousand times

When I pick up a mic

Guess I gotta give another microscopic glimpse in my life

Shed a little light on the wrongs and the rights, through the songs that I write

We ain’t give up the fight

I do it for the shorties, who didn’t have a dad

Who couldn’t even add so they didn’t do the math

Gotta set em straight when they on the crooked path

I’m just trying to be the role model that I never had

I weather the storm

So you can move on

**** this a blueprint

Encrypted through songs

The village ain't shit

Without examples

So that's why I gotta be the example

So I guess I gotta speak my truth

I was just a nappy headed young'n

Every summer always into something

Corner full of killers and drug dealers

Thank God I was raised by a village

Big bro showed me how to move

Walking through the toughest blocks without a bruise

Checkmate when you cornered and outta moves

When it goes down do what you gotta do

Remember that nothing’s impossible

Even when it don’t even seem logical

My people been jumping them obstacles

And Failure ain’t never been optional

Life is so volatile....

Oh well

Know that it won’t always go well

Believe in yourself And you won’t fail

Leave the path and create your own trail

I weather the storm

So you can move on

**** this a blueprint

Encrypted through songs

The village ain't shit

Without examples

So that's why I gotta be the example

I’ve weathered the storm

Sometimes it be cold and never get warm

Now I stay gone

Zion Willamson I’m in New Orleans

Sike I’m in LA

Maybe on a plane or

Maybe at the crib

Thinking of a way to get this music out my brain

It’s funny I was the kid they used to think was lame

Study everyday, spent a lot of time on the sideline

Studying every play

Taping all the games, VHS

Now I’m sounding old

Just don’t feel like 20 years ago

When I was watching A.I playing L.A in the finals

Now I’m sending goosebumps down ya spinal

With the codes that I play I

I weather the storm

So you can move on
