lyrics

shakin off a hater or 5
this is for all my peoples who be payment-deprived
it's like ah ah ah ah stayin alive
i gotta watch watch watch what i say to my tribe 
i gotta bob
gotta weave
gotta take it in stride
gotta job
got needs
i'mma make it in time 
find escape in design
when i'm creatin a rhyme
the entertainment from the phase of transformation sublime
maybe i'll take it to a stage
and if i still love it then
 i might just put on a album
hope you give it a spin 
......y'know 
maybe when you stress peakin....
when your brain wants to exit stage left even
when the mess deepens
depressed
now you pushin back ya projects like
"i'mma do it next weekend"

hmm
or maybe do it never tho
if you don’t tell nobody
then nobody will never know

....maybe take an edible instead getting swept away
in stress's constant ebb n flow
