Kids On A Leash

(album: Long Time No See - 2021)

Blev

Ain't no comparison, this shit a rarity
Came outta Maryland, moving with clarity
Tell 'em I get it, I tell 'em I go and I tell 'em I'm taking my time
We was never living confined, had to put it on the line
Tell 'em get the fuck back
Swinging with my back against the wall
Get the fuck back
My attitude was motherfuck 'em all
Get the fuck back
They ain't never showed no love
Matter of fact them motherfuckers never even showed up

Running through mazes, ran out of patience
Feeling like I need to adjust the navigation
Allow me to vindicate as I vanquish
Elimination, illuminating, lost in the sensation
I'm ignoring the temptation
I avoided the same frustration
We was at the bottom on the road trying to find our station
Looking for a sign that would save us
Feeling like time is escaping
The days pass by with the faintest of fragrance
The will to minimalize the struggle, face it
And tell 'em to renown, have faith, have patience
I'm living like I'm in a competition, I'm racing
I'm competing with myself, I gotta keep up with the paces
With the crowd that fit the mold, that's basic
I'd rather go against then with
Right back on my shit
They been waiting for the old me
Can't confine, can't control me
I ascend to the heights where the air is thin
Fought the fights when the shit looked grim
Rock bottom, I seen the end
No Dwayne Johnson, no UPN
No helping hand that these people lend
I still proceed to go gets it in

Ain't no comparison, this shit a rarity
Came outta Maryland, moving with clarity
Tell 'em I get it, I tell 'em I go and I tell 'em I'm taking my time
We was never living confined, had to put it on the line
Tell 'em get the fuck back
Swinging with my back against the wall
Get the fuck back
My attitude was motherfuck 'em all
Get the fuck back
They ain't never showed no love
Matter of fact them motherfuckers never even showed up

I feel like all of this shit's a necessity
I'ma go in til the day they remember me
I murder everything, let it rest in peace
I'm never giving the secret, the recipe
Never exposing the hand that I'm playing with
I'm still available to do the dopest shit
I've been an animal, they better let me in
I'm fully capable of killing all of them
Off of my medication and the reservations
Tryna put it all in perspective, I'm still progressing
Feeling like a nigga never lost my touch
I'm still connected, with the essence
Said I'm only driven by the lifestyle
Ain't living with concern with the results
Can't take my eyes off the prize
I'm tryna get mine not [?]

Ain't no comparison, this shit a rarity
Came outta Maryland, moving with clarity
Tell 'em I get it, I tell 'em I go and I tell 'em I'm taking my time
We was never living confined, had to put it on the line
Tell 'em get the fuck back
Swinging with my back against the wall
Get the fuck back
My attitude was motherfuck 'em all
Get the fuck back
They ain't never showed no love
Matter of fact them motherfuckers never even showed up
