"TRACK 13"
[verse1:]
I be out here moving at my own time
Focused cuz I need to make the best of it
If I ever let you take a look inside my whole mind
I bet that most wouldn't properly handle it
Come and ride the wave now
The whole team cracked the safe now
Popping like a corn up in the pot while haters stay down
Tryna turn this thing into a business with no handouts
Make it on our own, pushing the brand, some think we sold out but f** it
I'ma drop an album every single year if needed until everybody's screamin' I'm their favourite artist period
Dropping all the j**els, meanin' I'm shining like a diamond
Serving food for thought until we both get full of all this knowledge
It's partly for myself but mainly cuz I reach the youth
Teach'em happiness is love and love means nothing but the truth, I be
On my worst behaviour, cutting off the Judases
The mission is: feed the fam then end up owning some businesses
Reason why I stay in school
Tryna get a degree
Cuz I get heated hearing rappers sounding dumb as sh**
I think that I shouldn't be cool with n***as
What I get for showing love is just a bunch of stitches
People at my table, people I confess to
People posting pics up on the 'gram captioned "The fam"
They only care about you if you got some type of fame
But when it's getting deep they're the ones pissing on your grave, I'm off it
I needed to let all of this steam off
Should spend my thoughts on all the people who just love me for me
Should thank my girl for all her patience
She could've run away instead she chose a n***a that is crazy as me
I done let her wait for way too long, I done break her heart for way too long, I done went some ways that's way too own
But I'm growing everyday
Promise that I'll be a better man
I'll be the best you've ever had, I won't f** up once again, nah
No, I won't f** up once again and it's true
I just put a ring on these lyrics
But I would compromise if it means that you are happy, yeah
From now on no more gimmicks
You can tell, I've been resurrected like a phoenix, for real
My content's getting dark, lately
I'm more aware, my third eye's seeing bright, maybe
Everybody on their guards, eyeball dribbling
Nowadays, it's hard to trust or even love any-body
90's babies growing old, far as I remember, was a toddler crawling bout a week ago
Suddenly twenty and tryna figure it out
I feel the pressure when somebody makes it outta the pond
And people tryna convince you, saying your time is coming
Adding "you still got some", all you need is to put the work in
b**h where? Building up a buzz takes a decade
I don't plan on being fourty-five when I make it
Blood, sweat and tears on my face when I penned this
Promotion is the key, eighty-five in percentage
Got my eyes on the prize, the whole world's praise
Catch'em all by surprise, they hail CK
This for all the setbacks, this a pay back, no backpack but I rap
Like I want all of my cash back, who snatched that, snap back, Ash with the cap back
f** that, I can turn you all to a hashtag
f** it, I mean, I could go for days
I been rappin' and snappin' 240 seconds straight
Told you "Paper Trails" and the one I wrote at seventeen
Were nothing but me getting ready to make it to the field
No more watching courtside, I made it in the Team
Now I'm aiming for the rings, Jordan back in '96
Nobody else out there is even able to compete, this is King Karell and I ain't even at my peak, nah
Said this is King Karell and I ain't even at my peak
Track 13
Peace
