Runnin all these red lights
Huntin for some insight
Gun in my lap
And I know
That isn’t a fair fight
Am I runnin Laps
Or stair steppin
To the next flight
Either way My challenge is airtight
Minus blow ups
Tell Tyson I’m the Challenger to blow up
88 keys
In a Maschine
Native to these instruments
I compose huh?
Now I’m just a poet
Mixed wit Beethoven
Grab your four clovers
Rake the leaves to blow em
If you got em smoke em
Full metal jacket
Is the attitude I’m holdin
When it hits you
New holes open
Let’s in light
Let’s refocus
What did I say
I said I will do anything
Outside a verse or a chorus
To impose it
My will
Smith and Wesson
This skill
Mr. Anderson build

You Don’t
Know what I
Have gone through
So don’t tell me
How
I should be living
I got me
You don’t know me so
You Don’t
Know what I
Have gone through
So don’t tell me
How
I should be living
I got me
You don’t know me so

Maybe it’s the trauma
Maybe it’s the karma
Maybe from my mama
Maybe from my papa
Baby it’s alarmin
My egos thinner than Charmin
I need direction
A Garmin
A guardian angel
Guarding me
And please be better
Than any defender Harden sees
My heart is hardened
It’s hard to get this shit outta me.
I’m decompressin
While I am stressin
My fallacies
My misconceptions
Have lead me to believe
That It’s all on me
Please believe
I know enough to know better
I know I’m not the only one with emotions under weather
Grab your poncho
Cause it’s hostile
In the eye
I’ve seen the center
If god or anybody
Is listenin here’s my letter
Patience is a virtue
The curfews a different measure
None of this is pleasure
In my mind you can enter
Now be quiet
And hear the demons
And see the splendor
Each a different mentor
Their methods a different pleasure
Now you can see why I’m sayin
I pray forever
Cause each days a new one
That I can be lost forever
Cause each moments a choice
That you live with forever
I strive to be poised
Cause people’ll say whatever

You Don’t
Know what I
Have gone through
So don’t tell me

You don’t know me so
You Don’t

Runnin all these red lights

Yeah
I’m lookin for some insight
Insight

Back to the manuscript
Back to the man who tripped
Back to the man who flipped
Back to the man who skipped
A whole week
Cause he was sick
From the fifths he sipped
A whole month
I guess he wanted to live quick
He is me
And that is the shit I deal with
A perfect person
Is not what I want to be
Its
A present person
Who just wants to see how life lives
The better version
Of what I know I can be if
I make it a priority
part of a new sorority
Of thinkers
And movers
And shakers
And growers
That make it happen
They’re only lookin for greatness
Gotta be the action
The matchstick is you
The fires already ashes
I write this with a passion
Believe me it is backed with
Personal struggles
That I muscle to get past quick
I said patience is a virtue
My old selfs a has been
I just want a shot to start
Dwayne Haskins
Pass me the rock
I’ll shock with blanka flashes
I’m back to pack my problems away
And start rappin
I’m back to laugh my sorrows away
And keep stackin
I’m back to catch my footing again
And find traction

You Don’t
Know what I
Have gone through
So don’t tell me
How
I should be living
I got me
You don’t know me so
You Don’t
Know what I
Have gone through

Maybe it's the trauma
Maybe from my mama
Maybe from my papa
Maybe from the Karma
Maybe it's the trauma
Maybe from my mama
Maybe from my papa
Maybe from the Karma

You Don’t
Know what I
Have gone through
So don’t tell me
How
I should be living

You Don’t
Know what I
