Illmaculate - Vertical Ascent lyrics

[Verse 1: Illmaculate] Yeah... huh They look at me, think it's cool to be you They see me shine like the j**elry's new (Exclusive!) But flossing I don't usually do (Why?) I used to be broke, still am but I used to be too (I'm foolish) Let me reintroduce ya, went from being in a slump to being in a coupe (Nah) Oops, I think it isn't true, that's me dreaming in the booth Heat seated with the roof gone, I'm on this vertical ascent Traversing earth trying to learn from all the hurdles that I've met (Nobody's perfect) Got a short fuse and war wounds, poor you I'm in the mirror it's your move Should I question dreams and what success can bring When your definition determines everything So, let it sing I bet it seems artists have self esteem issues with they selfish themes (God bless) I [] on beats, let my speech resonate as a reflection seen by those with lesser means (I find beauty in the smaller things) Rap is all ego, just want people to acknowledge me Far fetched, heart set on stardom (What's the point of it all) I ain't thought about that part yet I don't need to be too wealthy, just want to make it (What's it?) You tell me, it's more than moving out We gotta face the issue, how to change the hood, and take your neighbor with you Make a ripple, sh** I double up hoping that my pay'll triple Take a loss [] still gon' [] my brakes a little Got cakes to griddle, pies to flip I ain't talking white, mind's legit Food for thought rhymes are piff I ain't signing off I'm signing in Speaking with the hindsight of dying men I'm sick of playing with you So now I'm praying for you [Hook:] [Scratching] I pray your body healthy and your mind free X3 [Verse 2: Illmaculate] I pray your body healthy and your mind free, don't mind me Just a child's dream, a wild thing, my style seems so Al Greene Fall in love, what a mess, need a clean up on aisle 3 Now I gotta go, so immature that's my signature She says she's in love, I chose different words I think I hit a nerve, but don't mind me As long as your body healthy and your mind free I haven't earned, anything that's mine free So I prefer anything that's mine free Don't need a prisoner, don't need a label on you Don't think I'm only in love, when I'm laying on you Nuh-uh nuh-uh, that's why I'm praying for you Stay awake to the ways of the world preying on you [Hook:]
