No one ever said it'd be easy
No one ever said it won't take no time
No one ever seemed to believe me
Yo yo yo

No one ever said it'd be easy
No one ever said it won't take no time
No one ever seemed to believe me
No one ever thought that i could make those rhymes
And no ever said it's be easy
No one ever said it won't take no time
No one ever seemed to believe me
No one ever thought that i could make those rhymes
{Atlas}
Young dumb hooligan
Go and make a fool of himself
Once more
f** board
Back to school again
Finna drop out before it starts
Cause it's foolish when my squad makes gym
sh**
I'm feelin like a toolish friend
Cooler than your average
But this here is my crop
And rap sh** to atlas is like
Cyclops to eye drops
I just wanna chill up in my room
While i write lots
And leave at 3 am
To hit the Denny's
Or the IHop
I might not present myself as cogent
When we meet face to face
But
I'd rather lay awake
Than waste away and age in gray
And talents in the balance
Thats difficult to take away
No matter how often you
Debate my case
Homie screamin
"break his face"
Man
Ya'll know that ain't protocol
Boi
More the type for swordless fight
And battles with the ballpoint
I'd rather hit the mall than
Sit and argue over small points
And if you're interested
Than you can all join
Why not?

{Samsa}
Samsa's silky smooth
Like almond milk
Tongue like ramen shaman smoke
They used to say
"don't use big words
You'll alienated the common folk"
Now i speak through marble monuments
And Aristotle quotes
Multilingual linguists go to from
Navajo to javaco
To lava flow to vámonos
Cats who used to hate
Ask me to feature them
I respond with
"hey what's up dog
Comma no"
Used to live off of ramen bowels
Tostitos rolls and domino's
Now i vomit comic books
And namastes and h*mophones
When i was young
My mom would pump a polka for the chocolate flows(???)
Leave scriptures in her ca**eroles
And gospels in my pocket holes
Grew up a provodka tourist(???)
Since i was four
My mom would buy me picture books and literature
From bodegas and corner stores
Used to read about brontosaurs
A green macaw
An army corp
Or a superhero conflict wars
Or chupacabra carnivores
Hanging off my bunk bed
I would read until my arms were sore
Hoping one day i would have a story
Or accomplished more
