NINE Lyrics

There's a route for the thinker, to make a way

Leavin' thoughts spreadin' outward, in a sacred place

Never thought a nigga had it, but they made the space

Now a nigga found purpose in this blazin' space

Nah don't catch a case and erase all this progress

Open the door slowly and slam out the nonsense

Wise niggas observe, the wind in the breeze

People walkin', talkin' shit with the Sun in between

Keep the preacher separate, we don't talk like that

A heart soft like that, really sought off the map

Truth, nobody ever found in a day

Runnin' up the rock like Sisyphus ate

Wanna fall in love with this thing called life, a couple baddies with me, and a little bit of hype

And I hope that the clout don't kill my soul, a nigga been in school

since the honor roll

All these books really damn near consumed my role

But the nigga make the books, books don't make the nigga

Since a little one, had a bit of fun,

then I shot a gun, late twenties, bigots run at the sound of them

Mom and dad with the belt, didn't think I won

Did a hit and run, yes, but I been the Sun,

Like a one and done, yes, went from fun to none

Mind spins a whole lot, climaxed the whole plot

Actin' like I stole knocks, controlled thots or owned blocks like a nigga from Bowhndocks (Boondocks)

Season five givin more to ya door, comin' straight through, slammin' like Thor

Godless till I burnt up the sage,

A few prayers, shoutouts, a couple for days

Evictions, near homeless, felt stuck in a cage

That bitch scumlord died, uplifted my rage

Took lies to the grave with her

with nothin' to save,

Overseers out here trustin' the graves

Ain't thinkin' shit but some words

Flockin' to pretty bullshit like some birds

A nigga is wretched from the earth

Averse by a curse to just curse in a verse till it hurts in reverse,

From nine I emerge, on the verge to converse,

With some martyrs who ponder, mobsters and scholars who wander,

Down to put an end to the dollar, on some leather so soft like I'm Carter

Smarter, for my own good, that's what they say

Opps all around like it's May Day

Tryna steal my route to the bread

like I'm Day-Day

But hey hey, I be here to say-say that

I'm here to stay-stay the time to play play-play is nearby, backtrack, replay play

Nine is my life path, far from the wisest

Runnin' up the highest, shinin' the brightest

Danger and trouble, converge in the rubble, I fall and I stumble

I remain humble

Flip the landscape, like I move mountains, niggas makin' death money from these loose fountains

Pay to drink and eat, now that's a conundrum

Production conducted from the hunted instructed, like what's in the function

Extraterrestrials, abductions, diversions or some shit

Life a cartoon, I loathe, I laugh and I love it

Been writing since preteens, I do's it, I does it

MC Prosee, 'Stotle was buzzin

God is in me, cause I stay above shit

Now you wanna feature? Send bread because it's

Hard out here for a nigga, in a police state, ain't no pop quizzes, nigga

Questions and answers deliver the picture
