VERSE1: Y’all know what I mean, been a minute, back on the scene, on the MP, with the blue screen (2000), keep it tight, no in-between, it’s like that and like this and like that, I left for a minute, came right back, more work to do on the track, locked in, y’all know where I’m at (y’all know where I’m at), no breaks involved, getting mine, taking it all, and peep how I’m breaking you off, no limiter I’m taking it off, unlimited I’ve got mad approaches, they can’t match the focus, they thought the shop was boarded up, turns out that I was just warming up like CHORUS: And I’m just being honest Getting back to where it started Even when it felt hardest I’m still getting mine regardless I’m getting it Still getting it VERSE2: Y’all know what I’m about, turn my phone off, stressing me out, and I’ve never had doubts, just do my work then bounce, run it track & field, finish line, make tracks you feel, getting mine thats for real, used to blast the mass appeal, certainly about mine, build the verse and it started raining outside, do it rain or shine, intelligent with the design like CHORUS: And I’m just being honest, getting back to where it started, even when it felt hardest, I’m still getting mine regardless, I’m getting it, still getting it

CHORUS: One life to live so I’m living mine, always clocked in, it’s no quitting time, speak the truth and what I kick divine, serve rappers on the daily, you should get in line VERSE1: All my moves been right and exact, I brainstorm every time I’m writing the track, the kick and the snare like lightning crack, my joints ill, might need a license for that, I make the beats fresh daily, my circle start the revolution like a 1080, and there’s work to do, I don’t get lazy, the pen’s crazy, if you want the feature you can just pay me, catch the live show, you can peep the aura, rock the rose coloured diadoras, steez enormous, rocking overseas in Europe, ready for the set - I don’t need a warmup, write my name big all capitals, various styles, all casual, rock the Pennys too, all magical and my joints not fake, all natural CHORUS: One life to live so I’m living mine, always clocked in, it’s no quitting time, speak the truth and what I kick divine, serve rappers on the daily, you should get in line VERSE2: Program the sound then I dictate, flip breaks, crushing the bitrate, sleep on me thats a mistake, I’ve been great, try to catch up they’re a bit late, do the beat on the spot, lay the vocals down nonchalant, I’m still nice off the top, live action, you’re the type just to watch, no doubt, giving all for mines, my man Rel said its a call of the times, I’ve got a database full of rhymes that I load up 100megaBytes at a time, only use em in case of emergencies, exchange my joints for the currency, not trying to say I’m the best out, just saying no ones seeing me currently CHORUS: One life to live so I’m living mine, always clocked in, it’s no quitting time, speak the truth and what I kick divine, serve rappers on the daily, you should get in line

VERSE1: Jumping out the window, something out of nothing, should’ve known that I was bugging from the intro, rocking on a Zip though, knew that I would win so, I never held back, going all in cuz I’ve been dope, I’ve got dumb crates, truncate, drum breaks til I become great, rocking on the handheld, only do one take, I work late nights in the lab til the sun breaks, light shining down from the oculus beam, rock garments with the aquamarine, don’t worry I’m on top of this thing, got it locked, keep it hot like 100 degrees CHORUS: We all in, lets get it, no time to waste, not a minute, gather round, peep how we flip, when it comes to the style, styles infinite, the styles infinite VERSE2: I’ve got styles for days, when we rock, leave crowds amazed, whole team on stage (Backburner), diskread not a lot to say, most times I only need a few words, in the lab where I do work, back with a new verse, peep your new joint? nah the truth hurts, and I’m being honest with self, new joints, get them off of the shelf, used to keep em held tight, I still rock kayanos and the gel lytes CHORUS: We all in, lets get it, no time to waste, not a minute, gather round, peep how we flip, when it comes to the style, styles infinite, the styles infinite

CHORUS: Too nice for y’all, benevolent, mad styles, you might never get, that means don’t question it, take the day off, do it for your benefit AMBEEZ: Automatically my focus intact, to make new joints no holding them back, I just elevate straight over the track, and reach new heights all over the map, we trailblazer like Portland for more wins, while too many got it twisted like contortion, I break molds, stretched out with my hands high, tech pants with the 9-7s mad fly, if you don’t feel what I’m saying, thats mega sus, I go for miles - 35 on the pegasus, mind state everything is in order, to make the kinda music that’ll fit my persona, even when I chill, I’m still working harder, and even on my days off, I still get it poppin, looking at results from the quarter, corduroy fits, just look what I’m sporting CHORUS: Too nice for y’all, benevolent, mad styles, you might never get, that means don’t question it, take the day off, do it for your benefit 
AQUA: It’s kind of hard to be myself lately, when I start speaking the truth it’s like they can’t take it, I go to work and this ignorance isn’t fantastic, all this energy educating a damn racist, no wonder why I’m tired, as long as I inspire to be honest with you the reason I survived is through a lie, must just take a break from all this rap shit, craft shit, focus on my health cause mentally I’m bout to snap (bout to snap), true definition of a man, never cry and work hard gotta pretend, when I’m alone I act the same I’m with a friend, I need you not to be afraid to let me know when I’m wrong (I need that), my growth is testemic where I belong and where I’m at, I focus on my family and that, deserves a holiday off with pay bring it back CHORUS: Too nice for y’all, benevolent, mad styles, you might never get, that means don’t question it, take the day off, do it for your benefit

CHORUS: They’re making noise out there, but I don’t care, monuments built way up in the air, years to come show our work is still there VERSE1: Styles exceptional, doing what I’m meant to do, make joints, collect revenue, audio technical - mad technical giving out lessons you should pay attention, fly without wings, say what you want but I’m doing my thing, ready for the, the attention it brings, tapping on the MP making it sing, yo I make it bang like this swinging my chain while you bang my shit, levitate they can’t hang like this, they can’t maintain in the game like this, anachronistic, think about the future but I’m keeping it vintage, diskreadera yea that’s the imprint, we’re in this, stay low while I handle my business CHORUS: They’re making noise out there, but I don’t care, monuments built way up in the air, years to come show our work is still there VERSE2: Treat the rap game like a sport, competition’s coming up short, going through a box of zips and that sort, connected through the parallel port, I do my own stunts, collect funds, low-key aint been out in months, but even when I’m locked in I’m still outside, going in doing hard for mine, yo tweed thermal, my minds eternal, keep turning out the joint like E Sermon, speak perfect, dunks lime green purple, hard on myself like I deserve it, kick the standard leave em stanning, put it together like city planning, an architect still drawing it out, started with the foundation built up to the clouds CHORUS: They’re making noise out there, but I don’t care, monuments built way up in the air, years to come show our work is still there

VERSE1: My raps intricate, magnificent, they sound the same but I’m different, getting it from here to Michigan, peace to all the heads listening, I’m not lazy I do this daily, rock the jersey like Tracy McGrady, til I’m eighty, won’t break me, turn the beat on watch them go crazy, fold my hands turn the sampler on, doing work kick the dialogue, warm joints, cold heart, back where I started CHORUS: I still rock kayanos and the gel lytes, I still rock kayanos and the gel lytes, I still rock kayanos and the gel lytes, we still rock kayanos and the gel lytes
 VERSE2: Stay in the lab labbity, working on a masterpiece, but I really do actually, back in the Fax where I have to be, sort of chilly so I wear layers, doing work watch a movie later, listening to Roy Ayers, trying to be some Players, me I’m one of a kind, unusual with the design, going all for mine, for the two thou and the nine nine CHORUS: I still rock kayanos and the gel lytes, I still rock kayanos and the gel lytes, I still rock kayanos and the gel lytes, we still rock kayanos and the gel lytes

CHORUS: you know I gotta stack of zips, flip breaks, grab a snare and a kick, starting out, didn’t want to be average, they passed me the torch so I ran with it VERSE1: Hardbody with the bars stay chiseled, authentic, all my joints been official, chop it up still keep things minimal, I want smoke, all my raps are medicinal, I’ve been digging, you know that my hands hurt, hit the MP and give it that work, cats sleep but they claim that they stay woke, it’s not a competition, I only chase ghosts, run the marathon, far from the finish line & when the sun comes up I’m still getting mine, always clocked in, it’s no quitting time, serve rappers on the daily, you should get in line, all day selling sneakers, only taking calls from the teachers, that means I’m hard to find, in the lab going hard for mine CHORUS: you know I gotta stack of zips, flip breaks, grab a snare and a kick, starting out, didn’t want to be average, they passed me the torch so I ran with it VERSE2: Take notes on the way that I’m studious, in the studio, I been doing this, out here for a decade, nice with the pen game, learned from the masters, senseis, now I’m so nice, I hand out lessons, time stretching, kick divine questions, shape my reality when I do the verse, manifest when I put it in the universe, creation, destruction, try to maintain the balance, peace & dysfunction, somewhere in the median, I kick that premium style through the medium, through the highs and the lows, now I could do it with my eyes closed, plus I got my team behind me, and a torch to guide me CHORUS: you know I gotta stack of zips, flip breaks, grab a snare and a kick, starting out, didn’t want to be average, they passed me the torch so I ran with it

CHORUS: Not a lot to say, grey skies washed away, bad thoughts & I watched em fade, I can’t stop but not today VERSE1: Used to hope for the best, now I go out & get it, won’t settle for less, spent too many nights stressed, move past then it’s on to the next, no doubt, I’m getting mine, stay focused on the finish line, no time for the relax, spent two, made three back, they ask where’s ambeez, low-key but I’ll be back, wish that I could turn my brain off, they like my style, but it’s not the same cloth, while you’re getting your dream on, I’m probably turning the machine on, so for now I hold the crown, no stopping, no slowing down. CHORUS: Not a lot to say, grey skies washed away, bad thoughts & I watched em fade, I can’t stop but not today VERSE2: Go ahead, crack the Jameson, you know we always play to win, headline, main event, do work, pay the rent, still putting it together, timeless joints, that means forever, still trying to get extra, can’t sleep, won’t rest up, think I’m chill but I’m not though, rock the bass like Jaco, Halifax to Toronto, Backburner fam, y’all know, keep plans in motion, planets in orbit, options open, hit the stage with the Lo fit, then I’m out, ghosted
