10 Toes Down (feat. D. Floyd)
Just touched down, I'm back in The District
July wound down, I'm back in December
My sabbatical over, put my plan into action
This acting shit ain't over Imma make it through rapping
Wish I had some direction, I just know Imma make it
I'm steady chasing perfection with this portrait I'm painting
Grandmother ain't here to see me and neither her son
But Lee Mack is the world and the world has begun
Niggas said I should stay, keep my ass out in Cali
Said "ain't shit in the DMV, nigga you wilding'"
I tried to hear em out, but these niggas don't know
I can't be more original- fuck else Imma go
Hustlers reload, persevere through a 'no'
You throw em out to the cold they coming back with the snow
I ain't talking my shit, I just say what I know
I'm never leaving the game just had to switch the flow
Just touched down and I'm outside
I done seen some shit that make my eyes wide
10 toes down when I'm outside
Make a nigga reminisce on when my man died
Said I just touched down on some new shit
You 'gon make me turn you to a news clip
Said I'm 10 toes down and I'm outside
I don't fear nobody but the most high
Said I just touched down
Heart out to Aretha you know you get my respect
Opposition creeping you know you getting the tech
Kiss the bitch deceiving I'm only leaving a peck
Money come in seasons I only believe in checks
Gave my city the hope, feel like I'm Barry O
Deal like I'm Harry O if you need it just let me know
Feenin' to get the doe, Feenin' KC and Jo
Fiend like my nigga Fiend ain't 'No Limit' where we can go
Fuck what a nigga talk, I'm young Christopher in my soul
Walking that is, I'm King of New York and cross the globe
DC nigga this a DC mind state
Ever since I got on I done boosted the city's crime rate
Steal from my brothers- Never! I wanna see em shining
You may not be where you want, I wanna see you trying
I got a hustlers spirit, they wanna see me grinding
All the customers feel it any city that I'm in
This is what I'm in, she feel like Celine
My bitches are mean, they here as a team
Got triple the beams, put em right to your head
Go all night 'til you're dead, you can fight with this lead
Bad muhfucka, my momma told you so
All in the Bronx I'm young Calogero
Give you niggas the blues I'm young Grover Washington on the phone
Or Billie D. that lady could never sing- It's me
Just touched down and I'm outside
I done seen some shit that make my eyes wide
10 toes down when I'm outside
Make a nigga reminisce on when my man died
Said I just touched down on some new shit
You 'gon make me turn you to a news clip
Said I'm 10 toes down and I'm outside
I don't fear nobody but the most high
Said I just touched down
My life been fucked up, my life been left out
But I thank God Imma rap my way out
And I don't chase clout, I live what I rap bout
Tried to run me off but lost- I stand stout
Some of these niggas can't persevere through a single 'no'
Door shut in my face insinuate that I'm getting more
From this life, like Christ the crucifix of my sacrifice
Was my nigga's body bleeding out under dimming lights
Niggas murdered by the heat that they brought on the day
Had cameras on the block, they caught him the other day
The hood is graveyard filled with loved ones fallen
At night you feel the presence of the lost souls watching
Had to find the man in me- become one's purpose
Through the eyes of my insanity my life's uncertain
It's three paths for my family, all life's burdens
I'm talking the pipe, the street and life in Lorton
Just touched down and I'm outside
I done seen some shit that make my eyes wide
10 toes down when I'm outside
Make a nigga reminisce on when my man died
Said I just touched down on some new shit
You 'gon make me turn you to a news clip
Said I'm 10 toes down and I'm outside
I don't fear nobody but the most high
Said I just touched down
