(Intro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts) (Verse - D Prime 215) I just wanna last forever. Link the present, future & the past together. Break it down all at once, do the math together. Let me show you how I went and put my rap together. I was 25 with plans to stay alive. Knowing I'd be laid outside put a strain on my mind. Really hard to define. Put it all in a rhyme. Tryna be fly, deal with cranes in the sky. I was 25 tryna see 25 summers. Guess I’m lucky that I got 25 of em. I’m from where everyday bullets steady fly humming. I stay out the way, to survive more summers. On a Quest from a city where they Love drumming. Positive, and I got my Black Thoughts summoned. As for the streets, many got calls from it. As for me, I was close but I stayed far from it. Strays hit large numbers of those who had higher call numbers. Like great scholars and tall jumpers. Choices & Traps had some in Orange jumpers. Or in a box doing some floral numbers. Forever standing tall, surrounded by it all. Swinging for it hard, back against the wall. Scorpio mentality, always on my guard. Ironic how agnostic is spitting like the God. Never fake it till you make it, you’ll forget who you are. On a battlefield, Pat Benatar. Sagat with the way I sport scars. Life moving fast, cars on the boulevard. Live it to the limit & love it a lot. Because you never know how many summers you got. I’m caught up in survival. Alive on arrival, rebel like INS, it should not surprise you. Aware of surroundings, focused on what I do. Man in the mirror is my only rival. Like I’m main eventing for the title. Reflect on what I do and the point I got to. Ride my own wave, y’all were riding on a Tidal. But I’m pro Black, so I support Tidal. Do what you do? I never been the type to. Flyest Nobody ever since High School. Into my world, I let my rhyme invite you. Product of the Grind and what I put my mind to. BIG said the limit is the sky dude. Time to move forward, put it all behind you. (Bridge 2x) Always & Forever. Myself to the letter. 365 in a year do it better. What’s out of my hands truly is whatever. As for my path, you will never measure. (Outro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts)

(Intro / Hook) How you talking it but ain’t living it? How you talking it but ain’t living it? Really, How you talking it but ain’t living it? Do or die 215 this that authentic ish. (Verse 1) Yo, so how you talking it but ain’t living it? I rep authentic ish, y’all are false imaging. I spit this for ill witted civilians who stepped their game up from Big Willie to William. I’m Pro Black, the opposite of Gilliam. On my Philly Ish like Gillie Da Kid & dem. Talking nonsense, my man you gotta be kidding him. Far as authentic I show you all what it really is. Listen, BIG said the sky where the limit is. So I go & supply what the realness is. Only thing flying on my heels are some Timberlands. Word is my bond, it’s all bout the Benjamins. Listen, I keep 100 like a C-Note. Gotta open up ya third eye to go see yo. I’m from where they let birds fly, desert eagles. Relaxed, yet on a swivel, keep it tranquilo. Listen, all grind, there is no cheat code. Sold not told, Roc Marci on the Reload. Yeah I’m confident, but no time for an ego. Cause I’m coming live straight up outta ground zero. (Hook) So how you talking it but ain’t living it? How you talking it but ain’t living it? How you talking it but ain’t living it? Do or die 215 this that authentic ish. (Verse 2) Staying true to my word. Keeping it on a bean. Everything that I say, exactly what I mean. Hopping fresh off the curb, being me to a t. I can lead you to the water. Can I make you believe? Ay listen, you can lean to it rock to it. I’m from Philly where they prolly shoot a glock to it. Pro Black, never trust what a cop doing. Guns on eachother, duke we need to stop shooting. Outsiders, they would gentrify a block to it. And there’s a whole lotta nonsense I’m not doing. And there’s a whole lotta points I’ll never stop proving. All I know is hustle, I’ll never stop moving. Life, I learn my lessons from it. As far as the authentic, I’m the essence of it. And if it ain’t here yet, then the best is coming. Look, the honor’s what I represent. It brought me scars from the decadence. Keep it 100, more than a dead president. Let the record set the precedent. I be about all that I say. Anchored by the authentic, never going astray. Keep my head held high at the end of the day. For the real, I do this for everyday. It’s more than how you make bread in a day. See I’m the type you shouldn’t pass up. As far as the authentic I’m the last one. (Hook / Outro) So how you talking it but ain’t living it? How you talking it but ain’t living it? Son, how you talking it but ain’t living it? Do or die 215 this that authentic ish. So how you talking it but ain’t living it? How you talking it but ain’t living it? Yo, how you talking it but ain’t living it? Do or die 215 this that authentic ish. Talk to me. (Outro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts)

(Verse 1) They’ll probably save em for my grave. That’s just how it is, I ain’t never been afraid. To tell it how it is. Exactly how it’s made. Pro Black Fist Raised, I’m a Renegade. When I hear the beat, it’s time to mutilate. Put the blade to my vein, bleed out on the page. Ima show you what I’m made of. My life I couldn’t make up. Ima drop jewels like my name Jacob. Bars gonna hit you hard like a wake up. Cards given are the ones that I play up, straight up. Live it to the limit and love it a lot. Because you never know how many summers you got. Many got one, they never got hundreds of shots. I just wanna make the most out of my clock. 10,000 Hours, need flowers for every one of em. Kept it 100 since jump, why you front on him? Don’t smoke but my truth, so blunt on em. Let me break it down & show you where I’m coming from. Searching for my peace of mind. They got bullets flying from the Eagle God. They wanna see the day I wanna see beyond. I wanna seize the day they wanna keep rewind. Let me remind you the meaning of it. Out of sight out of mind, people seem to love it. Different vibes between private and in public. If you got honor it’s hard to stomach. Do you really want it? Should I be really real? Should I keep it chill or tell you how I really feel? Should I go & show you my Achilles Heel? Forget it. Might as well paint the canvas with krylon. Seen it like the 50 Inch Zenith on FLYGOD. The truth is bygones are bygones. But y’all gonna know exactly what I ride for. (Hook) Putting in 10,000 Hours. Please let me smell 10,000 Flowers. Life moves faster than 10 Miles An Hour. I need love to the 10,000th Power. Putting in 10,000 Hours. Please let me smell 10,000 Flowers. Life moves faster than 10 Miles An Hour. I need love to the 10,000th Power. (Verse 2) I need love like Cool J. And I stand on the line as I do say. All for 10K in a Bouqet. Watch the truth spill out with the D’Usee. I mean, inconvenient as a nonbeliever. Flowing like Aquafina, I got no options either. Taking it over while I’m spitting ether. Dichotomy underrated overachiever. Parkside how I’m Killin it cheeba cheeba. Darkside the villain with control of my breathing. Peep it see it. That’s the Product of the grind for you. If I love you don’t make me change my mind on you. Hard to see right in front of you how I warn you. You never see it till it’s very late. It’s like you hold flowers for a buried grave. All for a post on that same very day. Look, I ain’t surprised, Joni Mitchell never lies. With my eyes I surmise very few know the prize. Of having someone close who’s really down to ride. And oblige all the time till they fade like a mirage. Or flying in the sky. Like Plug I wonder why they never know the stakes is high. Till it’s time to say goodbye. Listen, you got someone close, love em a lot. Because you never know how many summers you got. I mean you never know when it all will just stop. So I keep the memories right at the top. And I keep the energy for all of the props. It’s 100 everyday it never will stop. Take the message and keep the pity. I just hope it ain’t late when you get me. Listen, take my message, keep the pity. I just hope it ain’t late when you will get me. (Hook) Putting in 10,000 Hours. Please let me smell 10,000 Flowers. Life moves faster than 10 Miles An Hour. I need love to the 10,000th Power. Putting in 10,000 Hours. Please let me smell 10,000 Flowers. Life moves faster than 10 Miles An Hour. I need love to the 10,000th Power. (Outro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts)

(Hook - DJ Soulbuck Cuts) (Verse 1 - Mike Voss) Never too young to check. never too old to shine like Gucci and Thugger’s neck. Listen you want respect? You better had come correct. See that’s the cause and effect. Go forward in one direction. Ain’t no boy band ho. You want the boy to play a show. Give the boy bands though. This shit is dope, the booth is my bando. Say I ain’t livin the dream, truth is I am though Wake up! Smell my flowers before you give em to me. Hope this life ain’t scaring ya man, this shits a doozy. We all main characters just in different movies. So do it BIG like you dipped in Coogi I listened when my pop was speakin. He said “make sure that you heard me son don’t stop believing man it’s all about the Journey” Just a small town boy. Now rock with me like some Fall Out Boy. Talk to em Styles. (Hook - DJ Soulbuck Cuts) (Verse 2 - D Prime 215) Never too young to die or too old to live. So I’m forever on point like Tip. I never fell but every now I slip. Yet I always Gore-Tex my grip. Know The Ledge From R. So I aim for Mars. Even if I miss, I land in the stars. Between Man & God. They fear the Planet I’m on. And the knowledge that I go to spark. Once again it’s on. Reality with your dreams inside you. Making it happen, no book on how to. Doing the best with what surrounds you. Actions speak loud, I pump up the volume. I been going through it and getting to it. No time to front like stars are feeling my movement. My bars have been the truest. Between going hard and chucking the dueces. Caught up in surviving, forgot what living like. Add in the fact I never give in to hype. Outside the box I am a different type. And I rhyme nothing what you would riddle like. Fly yet give you pain. I’m just in my lane. I’ll forever grow but I will never change. I’ll just let you know I’m on a different page. Unplug from the machine and I just let it rage. (Bridge - D Prime 215) Uh, just tryna live greater. Break it down all at once. It’s the Alpha & Omega like. Uh, just tryna live greater. Illadel native, ain’t the one to play with. Never too young to die or too old to live. For real. Never too young to die or too old to live. That’s what we had to say we up out this, GO! (Hook / Outro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts)

(Verse 1 - D Prime 215) Live from the eye of the storm. Where the pressure is on. And the weapons are drawn. Like Basquiat. Dog try me not. Earn stripes like those on my Adidas. I don’t want no trouble, I’m like La-Di-Da. I’m sharp like Reservoir Harvey Kei. Don’t cross the line. Surprised I often find those who wanna bark up the tree that’s mine. Ay, I ain’t know about going out to head west, red Lex, TVs all up in my headrest. I was in my bed tryna get my head rest, dreaming bout a red Lex, TVs in the headrest. Wanted to rhyme like M-A Dollar Sign. Get my study on, cats was on they Columbine. They say if I’m out of sight, I’m out of mind. My crown taller than Suleiman of the Ottoman. Say my anxiety’s from my lack of piety. I’m a rudebwoy like Haile Selassi be. And I studied KRS-One’s philosophy. Trappers had they hands on boy, archdiocese. Illuminati want ya mind, soul & body. I’m from where killers pray soon as they catch a body. Dangerous dichotomies from what my eyes can see. I can hear you, and I’m seeing the isosceles. In all honesty, Sacred as the Mantra be. Break it down, let’s see who can walk with me. Ayo, no half stepping on the Kane. Message is the same. Peep the lessons of the game. Test will never change. And the energy’s the same. But the question is, are you ready for the rain? R-A-W here to bring trouble to whoever think they're getting in the way of my W. 100 when I’m coming through. Truly, I will humble you. All off the muscle dude. Ayo, I had to get on my Ferrigno. Grab the mic and let a clip go. Crush the ego of a dude who was Citgo’d. Unapologetic, if I said it then I meant it. You can count on me to truly hold you to the letter. That’s on my word, truly is forever. As for my path, you will never measure. That’s on my word, truly is forever. As for my path, you will never measure. (Verse 2 - Stevie Franks) She said I’m destined to be great. That's from what she see. Thought I’m from Philly cause I’m in my prime with the D. And that’s word to wasabi she know what it be. Have me stayin’ on her mind even when she leave. When I talk it’s like a crime turn into disease. When I talk it’s like a line serving with the fiends. When I walk it’s like a vine running through my jeans. And I know that ima shine this is not a dream. Every line is like a criminal plot. When I pull up to ya block no subliminal shots. Then I’m never gonna stop until the giving is got. Goin’ hard in the paint yelling gimme the rock. I’m in love with the art this is for the game. Bust a shot then I hide call me Tory Lanez. Why I get up every day hustle for the pain. In it for the long haul, we are not the same. Tech 9 it be sounding like a drummer band. Flow tight hold the bread call it rubber band. Felt bad when I hit for her other man. Bust a nut hop up do the running man. MJ in the game you could never plaaaayyyyy me. Cross the line you’ll be pushing daaaaaaiiiiisssiiees. He done lost his mind, what he think he craaaaaazzzzyyy? He know he can’t live, what you think you Jaaaaaay-Z? Never giving up. Didn’t sin enough, didn’t live enough, if it’s love gotta give it up. Never gettin stuck if I do, gotta switch it up. Just to get a buck ima grind gotta live it up. Go to sleep, hard time doin’ that. And you can’t drop the ball, what you do wit that? Got that good work, how you movin’ that? Give it here ima show you what to do wit that. (Outro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts)

(Hook - DJ Soubuck Cuts) (Verse 1 - D Prime 215) I guess it started with life. Let me break it down, go and paint art on the mic. They say art always imitates life. If so, let it be the reason I write. I mean I started rhyming for the sake of it. For my friends and whatever they take from it. Then I had a moment of truth. Hit me hard, changed my flow in the Booth. Got my youth, but I’m long in the tooth. These ain’t bars, look I’m giving you truth. Higher standards have me raising the roof. Paid the cost of integrity, none to recoup. As for my legacy, let it honor the truth. If the shoe fits, let it follow the suit. Fly like Finn, opulent coup. The truth is what I drop in the booth. Nah, we never giving it up. I thought airs and talking fly was just living it up. (Hook - DJ Soubuck Cuts) (Verse 2 - D Prime 215) I was struck, steady looking for luck dreaming. Eyes open saw visions I would believe in. Looked in the mirror, that’s when I would see em. Yet they ain’t see it, nah they ain’t believe it. Gave me throwaways, so I throw away and delete em. Those who tolerate ain’t the type of people I be with. Had to change my pivot. What I’m bout I represent it. I’m the true & living infinitely authentic. So I figured, why shoot the breeze? Go the distance. So I did it. Increased my standard of living. Achieved the grandest of spirits. Listen, it looks like a breeze but it isn’t. Herculean strength had to lift it. This is for my fam who get it. On they mind when I’m out of sight, they know I’m living. And dig it. Nah we never giving it up. Celebrate with loved ones, that’s living it up. (Outro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts)

(Verse 1 - AIME) I be trippin’ on my flaws when I wake up. Demons in the past gave me scars I don’t make up. Ain’t no EZ Pass for the toll that it take up. It’s way too expensive just my to charge to my paystub. But what they tell you? Hustle hard, get ya cake up? Without the bootstraps that be gone when we lace up? Just to bomb on us, Memoirs of a Geisha? Working through the trauma what they lodged in our nature. So I’m Michael Scott - on call for the paper. The homies never pause when I call in a favor. All the tribulation from my Lord and my savior. I thank Her all for cuz the boss up is major. I know about depression, how far it could take ya. Stumbling outta bars, seeing stars in the vapors. Blacked out, pissin’ out the Voss and the chasers. Snorting up Kane til you fall Under Takers. I snapped back, putting bars on the paper. Bought a crib, now I’m round all different neighbors. Baggin women, dawg, I’m talkin all different flavors. Eating Chicken Picatta with the sauce and the capers, woo! When light dim, flip the charge on ya breaker. I’ve come a long way since mama barged into labor. Performing under pressure, 2-4 on the Lakers. Live ya life until God calls you to face Her, it’s AIME, nigga. Shit ain’t the same, nigga. Don’t trip, ya gotta flip the charge on ya breaker. Live ya life until God calls you to face Her, it’s AIME. (Hook - M11SON) It feels like a rollercoaster, rollercoaster oh. Somethin's missin I been on a poster on a poster oh. Hands up on the rollercoaster rollercoaster ahhh, ahhh (Verse 2 - D Prime 215) Aiming high as the stakes creates what’s great. But you’re gonna carry the weight. So, rock steady when the barrier shakes. The darkness is what many barely escape. Life is what you make, but are you chained to your fate? Thoughts in my head, I mean, can you relate? Slow & steady wins the race at a granular rate. But life moves fast, can we pick up the pace? Nah, I ain’t racing to the finish. I just wanna my live life up to the limit. I ain’t living to die. Don’t wanna live to survive. I just wanna live life, and love it a lot, for real. I mean, it’s like we all got dreams right? But it’s never really how it all seems right? 215 my regime keep it a bean right!? In between the lines, we writing a scene like Spike Lee. It’s likely reprising these scenes might cause damage to scars we trying to heal. Scorpio, so I got the guard on my grill. I feel like Nas at the barbecue still. For real. Many challenges in place, keep the stamina for race. Heavy weights gotta balance it in place. Saying what you mean and meaning what you say has a cost regardless of what the cameras survey. Wild how they treat the God like he the prey. Are you moving forward or standing in place? Truth come to light every single day. Always & Forever. Forever In A Day. (Hook + Outro - M11SON) It feels like a rollercoaster, rollercoaster oh. Somethin's missin I been on a poster on a poster oh. Hands up on the rollercoaster rollercoaster ahhh, ahhh This lifestyle don't pay no. What the fuck I rhyme all day fo? Feelin like an ass, I could pass for JLO. Sippin on this liquor til the pain gone. Said I'm sippin on this liquor til the pain gone. Sippin on this liquor til the pain gone. I’m sippin on this liquor til the pain gone. Sippin on this liquor til the pain gone.

(Hook - M11SON) Inside I’m burning down. I hide, I’m nervous. I find my purpose now. I climb to the surface. (Verse 1 - D Prime 215) Meaning of pain? Something we go through in order to gain? Something for your brain, drive you insane? As for me, I’ll explain. Experience in life, shape how you frame. Get closer to the 9th, harder to change. It’s like having hairs in the snipe on the range. When you go to pull everything change. If you been there, maybe you can relate. If not, visit from the picture I paint. Listen, go and just envision the game. If your cards are different, still one in the same. You ever caught Ls in the pursuit of Ws? Made you question if it’s really what you wanna do. On the other hand, loved one ain’t coming through? Blind curve and it’s hard to see in front of you? Something you never thought you’d run into. And you ask yourself, what it coming to? That’s why it’s hard for me to get comfortable. Soon as it’s cool, get hit hard with something new. It was all good just a week ago, or was it? I don’t even know. Trouble of uneven growth. It’s like, my muscle gets the people though. But it’s like my scars never even show, ya know. (Hook - M11SON) Inside I’m burning down. I hide, I’m nervous. I find my purpose now. I climb to the surface. (Verse 2 - D Prime 215) To my people out there, bless your life. To everyone I hold tight, bless your life. Hold up, I needed time to breathe. Moving through life, ain’t have time to grieve. High flying really takes a high toll on your knees. Either face it or run, do as you please. As for me, I do what I need. I needed to breathe on my 1,2 into the 3. Pardon me if I ever seem desensitized. It’s a storm. I’m just tryna weather mine. Inside I’m like AJ who won’t comply. Holding it together while running out of time. I’ll show love before I say it. So pardon if words are your only relation. My pain ain’t quick to see word to Jigga. I hope my words paint the picture. And I leave something behind that you remember. I’m out. (Hook - M11SON) Inside I’m burning down. I hide, I’m nervous. I find my purpose now. I climb to the surface. I climb to the surface.

(Intro - D Prime 215) I said on everything I love & all that it means. I put that on the lines and all in between. If you look into my eyes it’s more than it seems. I’m from 215 where we all keep it a bean. (Verse - D Prime 215) My reality and dreams are breaking right at the seams. Reflecting all that I see. Authentically me. More pressure for me. Doors open with keys. Y’all say it’s minor, duke it’s major to me. 21 Grams of Soul on a Triple Beam. Sharp as a guillotine. Scarred from the history. Of standing tall with my back against the wall. Mad numbers in my Jack, barely any I could call. So I always ask what’s the meaning of it all? For integrity I always paid the cost. It’s a bitter taste if you ever take a loss. No work ethic but you wanna be a boss. Did a double cross so you bear the albatross. Sow it as you reap it. Made your bed to sleep in. Was it really worth to go be where the sheep is? Yeah I hear your words, but your actions speak it. Peep it. I’m inspired by the Honorable. Integrity Phenomenal. The type to show you more than just what a llama do. The game on the things in life that you really gotta do. Own yourself and there’s nothing that you gotta prove. Never been a know it all, but A1 been my protocol. And when it’s go time I always know to ball. I’m a gem like Misawa on NOAH’s Ark. I’m a Lone Wolf like Owen Hart. All for the legacy, inspired by integrity. On a path that no one is measuring. Look, it’s what you do with your time. I go hard in every single hustle of mine. All for the sublime. The abundance of fly Is what I strive for everytime I open my eyes. So, before I run out of my time. Ima show you why I’m designed the way I’m designed. (Bridge - D Prime 215) I said on everything I love & all that it means. I put that on the lines and all in between. If you look into my eyes it’s more than it seems. I’m from 215 where we all keep it a bean. I said on everything I love & all that it means. I put that on the lines and all in between. If you look into my eyes it’s more than it seems. I’m from 215 where we all keep it a bean. Nah mean? (Outro - DJ Soulbuck Cuts)
