whassup y’all this the dark tape
blacker than the tarmac floors where the cars stay
telling him to press record and then its on gabe
two people live in my head they fight all day
yo, this is how it goes
i don’t wanna know you player don’t get involved
phone ringing its my homies i don’t pick up the phone
its the one and only, only one in my dome
this is how it goes, i could see that
got a friend in my head and we go way back
take me out of the loop put me back in pursuit
nothing that you could do for anybody but you
my lifestyle a lifetime work
i like life my life’s like turns
peep around the corner, tell me what you see
trickery, illusion thats the nature of the beast
you could take me as i be or leave me in the shop
you could wait, take a detour meet me on the block
i’m getting out my tools, working like a mule
got a lot of pockets lot of objects i could move
watch him pop up out the tomb with sarcophagus removed
call the doctor queue the opera music i could get in tune
i’m shakespeare i write about ghosts
seen em stay near they ride around close
yo, this is how it goes
i don’t wanna know you player don’t get involved
phone ringing its my homies i don’t pick up the phone
its the one and only, only one in my dome
this is how it goes, i could see that
i got a friend in my head and we go way back
take me out of the loop put me back in my pursuit
nothing that you could do for anybody but you

Break your neck
Lemmefeel you bounce see you step
This elephant stomp music
This that Ella Ftzgerald meets Confucius
On new shit, never get old
I never come in second place I always win gold
Fortune favours the bold
I never been the one to do anything that i’m told
On the real I’m back with the same drama
Still that fabulous spitter that sing manttras
I blaze rappers i burn ‘em with strange language
Antagonist cast ash on your chain stainless
What you want boy, teach you how to mack
What you need girl, show where its at
Who you be girl, g is just a cat
I’’m a b boy, i just wanna rap
So many tricks up the sleeve
Out of this world like on ships trynna leave
Word, so many things you could be
Firm together as one team , centipede
Trynna play it cool need to stay wise
Have i learnt my lesson penning my sentences all this time
Repentance my only penance is in the sky
Step into the endless dimensions thats in the bog
Squad, do it for the cause ah
Bars harder my bars harvard
Prophecy once told, unfold
Manifest the body of n
Imma have to show them again
Move the boulder rolled over again
Over and over again
Centipede develop and hold till the end

Wake up yo whassup punk jumpstart my heart beat back
Last night i had a dream that i woke up right from my first relapse
That isn’t how it went down though had to go down low to the cave
I just came up out the rehab clinic i was living in it 21 days
Sitting in the rain outside
Always had the feeling it was strange outside
Flipping through the pages in the chapters of my play
Burning through the stop signs standing in the way
Breathe, in, here we go again
I been starting over all my fucking life man one more time aint a thing
One more notch on the belt ah yes i guess i fit
That is always not how i felt then they wonder why i left when i dip
Never saw the ceiling as a wall
Everytime i reach it after that i had to crawl
Pretty Mona Lisa looking at me with a smile
Intravenous segnorita that cut a piece of the pie
For ten years i been absent dog
Thats ten years i been trapped in the fog
Thats a real long trip
This is not a flick this is real life shit
Bre-eathe ,peace, i just want peace
I done lost a lot of wars on myself now I’m tired I’m about to go to sleep

Barrio

Strolling down the avenues that we used to walk
Do you remember how we’d laugh when we used to talk
In the suburban backyard white picket fence
Subsaharan dirt road hindsight remembrance
Its been a minute since i seen you in this lifetime
I remember thinking you would always be beside my
Fairytale imagination castles made of Sanskrit
Left you on another planet speaking other language
Spanish, barrio, welcome to the neighbourhood
Walking to the cornerstone I’m making sure my neighbour good
Studying my alchemy, rappers couldn’t battle me
Call the fucking cavalry I’m riding with the family
Here we go, if you need to take it slow
Its whatever take it easy come and holler at your boy
I’m a lover and a fighter but I’d rather be the first
Only turn into the second when protecting what i’m worth
I grew up around the earth, know a lot about what loss is
Back and forth and far away from you is what the cost is
Regardless i’m happy cause nothing ever last g
At least I got familiar with that is kinda sad b
I’m the guy, won’t you come and take a ride
We could skip into the wilderness thats living in my eyes
I’m the wildest of the beasts, i’m the lion from the east
I been trynna show the humans who the nicest on the beat
Yeah it’s me, B.O.G every day, every week
Everywhere in any sphere of any area we meet
Disappear and re-appear then disappear and then repeat
Disconnected re-connected and thats the message that i speak
