To understand these ways
Sometimes I hide for a little
Could you come and find me
You could solve me like a riddle
Why don’t you journey your way inside
Head back for the ride
Howling from a balcony
Yeah we’re off the rails
Yeah he’s all thrills
What could stop this loving
We’re written into the seams
We’re written
Written into the seams

Roots deep, it’s no weeding me out
making strides building steam no reasonable doubt
puffin lye tryna scheme get by with my means
yeah I been going through the motions ten toes to the ground
only pause to take a Peek at the clouds
still outta reach what i been dreamin’ about
So far to go I hope this wind enough to see me through
Yeah, i’m walking to a different tune
Used to stress the destination but that’s old news
keep some cess for hesitations when they come round
Block ‘em when they sound where i’m headed know it’s homebound
Chukwu just off the name you know I show out
Naturally I came some ways I gotta throw down
tacitly I set the pace only hustle on the case
It’s better you hide than ride at my rate
I made it far wit a few ties dug through them crates n
From the lows found new highs it’s crucial when you dealt the same
woes, no nuance. I’m strapped up holding down the
post like Toussaint to keep ‘em at bay
eyes locked on the prize through the rest of the wave
on the prize through the rest of the wave.

When I look out
On this moonlight night
I feel a part of something else
The smoke in the air
The wind in the leaves
Clouds are hanging over me
But when I look out on this bloodstained land
And you say I should be proud
I wanna spiral down
Take a pill and fall asleep
In this future, nothing's as it seems
I wanna spiral down
Take a pill and fall asleep

On bended knees quite often / was taught the blows would soften / can’t count the once we’ve lost since / sense stop seeming common / Cover mouth when coughing, cover routes when walking / never know what pace they tracking your trace , no track to this race /
back to the gates, re start , blinders in face , be smart / sell what you make , we art / convince you you fake , see far / c4 , blow it up when you mean war / no justice , fuck should there there be peace for / yo peeps is in the peace core
/ my peeps peep the precinct weeks before, Knockin on doors / breaking bottles , disturbing decor , suburbs is annoyed for they ignore / adored is there stores , gives em a job , they needing they chores /
Reason to feel decent bout their recent explores / lI’m thinking they be sleeping and still reaching for more / pillage till sore , I guess I’ll tell my village buckle up for the war, we outnumbered forsure

Grow Away (feat. Hanaé)

You messed it up again
Grew out your friends
Grew out your hair and grew away
I'm trying to dissipate
Or reappear
A magic trick to heal my pain
How many steps did I take? How many falls did I make?
And what did I learn?
You were just a figment of a dream
A fig tree in a seed
Cautionary tale I didn't read
I said please
I became your giving tree
I'll say you were nothing to me
You told me that you wouldn't hurt me
Cut off all my leaves
Had to grow out of this mess
Had to grow out of my dreams
I had to grow out my hair
Grow out my friends,
Grow out this place, grow out, and go
Grow away
Grow away
