Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A revelation to the canopy of heaven
Gratitude that I be a legend
And I see the messages, let's get to the next measurement
Level up, now it just gets better, it never gets old
Even when the weather gets cold, I bet I see a record that's gold
Heat it up to platinum, freedom is the action
Activity, what's happenin', we be smashin'
Intergalactic back flip with a passion
[Verse 2]
My raps 'bout livin's a blast and getting cash
If it isn't that, it ain't my neck of the woods, like prison tats
I'm from a respectable hood, how I'm giving back?
Living Black Excellence
Missing my blessings if I'm ever pocket watching, trippin' if I got less than them
I could say that I got the last laugh, but that's whack
Actually, got the last chuckle, fuck you
Suckas wanna touch, plus, it cost too much to
These hoes is nuts and it takes balls to bust two
[Chorus]
We're walking on clouds, wind surfing since birth
Getting what we're owed, we know what it's worth
Souls 'round the globe, the whole of this Earth
Shows, hit the road, the dough is dispersed
When life gets low, fasho the shit hurts
But we gon' make it better before it gets worse
[Chorus]
We're walking on clouds, wind surfing since birth
Getting what we're owed, we know what it's worth
Souls 'round the globe, the whole of this Earth
Shows, hit the road, the dough is dispersed
When life gets low, fasho the shit hurts
But we gon' make it better before it gets worse
[Verse 3]
When he was ten, couldn't wait to get old
Thinking 'bout plenty to spend and weight to flip mode
When he penning a gem even if he ain't been in the gym
Prison, or pen, or pimped pros
Caged in the criminal maze or switch codes
Raising the minimum wage our brick-road
Painting a subliminal phrase, "He's been cold"
Vehement as a razor in immediate danger
Grown from the state of the bass kick break
[Verse 4]
Home of the quakes, where we make shit shake
Here's some shrewd advice, if you do it right you ain't got to do it twice
So go on, get to it if the shit is worth pursuing
Let 'em finish what they saying then continue what you doing
My **** wasn't playing, we been in it for a cool one
Never did it for approval, or listened to refusals
Just amended the maneuvers, then hit 'em with some new ones
Nuanced improvements, if you want it, do it, the proof is in the music
[Chorus]
We're walking on clouds, wind surfing since birth
Getting what we're owed, we know what it's worth
Souls 'round the globe, the whole of this Earth
Shows, hit the road, the dough is dispersed
When life gets low, fasho the shit hurts
But we gon' make it better before it gets worse
[Chorus]
We're walking on clouds, wind surfing since birth
Getting what we're owed, we know what it's worth
Souls 'round the globe, the whole of this Earth
Shows, hit the road, the dough is dispersed
When life gets low, fasho the shit hurts
But we gon' make it better before it gets worse
