[Verse 1] Money isn’t everything, But it can help with getting anything, So, use it to reach any dream, But there’s plenty here for me, you can have it too, You either work or play, not both, gotta choose, People claim their boss, but they work for others money, That’s cool, I do too, but I have a side grind, Music for the masses, though I do it for myself but, Since you support. Thank you. I will repay your help. By not falling off, balanced like my budget is, Goals are set in place, don’t bother budging it, Motivation music, too alien for mother ships Practice makes perfect, always practice, guess I’m perfect then, Life’s my crystal ball, I’m self-fulfilling prophesies, Im an oracle of orators, False Prophets are foreigners. Only speak the truth. If I’m wrong better tell me, Cause I’d rather tell a lie than die livings lies. [Hook] If you want it, then we on it You want it, then we on it If you want it, then we on it Just don’t fall off If you want it, then we on it You want it, then we on it If you want it, then we on it Just don’t fall off Don’t fall off, just don’t fall off Wanna ride the high road just don’t fall off Don’t fall off, just don’t fall off, Gotta put in work if we wanna get a paycheck. [Verse 2] Motivation is the key, it gets my ignition starting. Oh? You pity me; well at least I get a party. Don’t need sympathy. Just a pencil pad and beat. And like a king, I’ll have doubters bowing at my feats. Crowds will fill the seats; just have to lay the foundation, Soon I’m gonna ball like illuminati masons But I don’t sell souls, I just sell music. Hit me on Facebook. Tell me how to improve it. Concentrate on quality. Leading Change, Don’t follow me. Leave that to the birds who hang on words of other peoples statuses Though they don’t know the status of life. Savages, Scavenging for answer when they barely know their own questions/ I don’t ask why. I only ask how. How do we change? How do I live dreams without need sleep? That’s easy. Only through actions do thoughts become reality. [Hook] If you want it, then we on it You want it, then we on it If you want it, then we on it Just don’t fall off If you want it, then we on it You want it, then we on it If you want it, then we on it Just don’t fall off Don’t fall off, just don’t fall off Wanna ride the high road just don’t fall off Don’t fall off, just don’t fall off, Gotta put in work if we wanna get a paycheck. [Verse 3] Toppling obstacles impossible for mortals who believe in limitations. I believe in levitation. Through extreme meditation and patience, my dreams’ll manifest. Living’s my job. My work description: TO BE THE BEST You can argue, but unless you got solutions. Your problems and comments are no concern, just illusions. Conclusion: Got nothing positive. Silence, Or you’re just beating dead horses. Violence. I can almost taste it. Almost feel it. Tastes like success but it feels like money. Looks like my dreams. Smells pristine, And this song, these words are how it sounds to me. The world is an oyster, so grab it by the throat, Choke this earth and watch how to core hurls pearls. All you gotta do is spot the wealth in yourself before you can race with the rats. Got that? [Hook] If you want it, then we on it You want it, then we on it If you want it, then we on it Just don’t fall off If you want it, then we on it You want it, then we on it If you want it, then we on it Just don’t fall off Don’t fall off, just don’t fall off Wanna ride the high road just don’t fall off Don’t fall off, just don’t fall off, Gotta put in work if we wanna get a paycheck.

COMING SOON!!! [Hook] You wish, For my demise but, I wish, For you to rise like, Helium in a red balloon, Sick of me hope you get well soon, Paint the town a light shade of blue to remind me of skies that I aim up to.

Chapter 19 02:42
Chapter 19 [Refrain] I will set sail To the unknown I will set sail Ebbing tides flow I will set sail To the unknown I will set sail Just so I, so I can [Verse 1] Woke up, I told myself, Yesterday was a total fail, So today I go set sail, on a mission to reclaim my wealth, That I haven’t lost, It’s just misplaced, like an artist I have to retrace, So In my sketchbook these words take shape, Hear them drawn out while pianos play. Set out on a path that appeared straight, The twist and turns disorient my spurs, But I still march on, 1, 2, step, As I dance to my plans that I won’t regret. I look to the sun that’s why I grow, Avoiding ebbing tides of a moon’s monsoon, Follow the wind where ever it blows, Fixing the problems with gold tip screws. One day I’ll go home soon, Leave this earth in a smoke of plume, Have rebirth as another dude with a new platinum hammer and golden screws. Life ensues then death takes toll, Repeat being you and growing old Think my feet have a solid hold but I know that assumption is very bold, So, Although it’s not the last, I’ll live like I don’t deserve my past Humble, never grumble, and talk back to the voice in my head that’s got my back. Won’t act like I don’t need friends, Or treat them like means to an end One alone is strong but two is greater, Drunk off power but I don’t chase her [Refrain] I will set sail To the unknown I will set sail Ebbing tides flow I will set sail To the unknown I will set sail Just so I, so I can [Verse 2] Woke up, I told myself, Yesterday was a total fail, So today I go set sail, on a mission to reclaim my wealth, That I haven’t lost, It’s just misplaced, like an artist I have to retrace, So In my sketchbook these words take shape, Hear them drawn out while pianos play. Heart in the harp strings, Hope I don’t get tangled up in it, My head’s in lyrics, Loved ones are my riches and I’ll have to say that they’re my best investment. Less to be stressed with, relaxed on my back Destined to best every slap and attack, Used to neglect and I’m sorry for that, Hope you forgive understand if you can’t Yesterday was not so bad Just a few mistakes, Punches I can take, They can be erased with a couple dinner dates and a fun time. That sounds great. Something well needed to fix these lesions, In my confidence, Thoughts too dense, Time to open up my mind again so neurons can breathe and my wings expand, Now, I can see this change, That I reach with outstretched hands I don’t think anyone will mind if I take this thing unclaimed as mine Don’t throw dice but I had snake eyes, And cold blood only warmed by the sun, But the chapter is done, Where’s my pen? Chapter 19 now begins!
