40 Days and 40 Nights

Born to my parents
Don’t know the circumstances
from the wedding photos
saw the loving in their glances
arrived on this planet
From a combination of a million different chances
Never taking it for granite
On solid ground standing
Opportunities ran with
Not perfect I managed
To be heard every time I flip the words in the language
40 years on this earth
I’m hopeless romantic
Married to this
All my moves were planned with
No excuses
The heart beats
So I do this
Since the day I landed
being drawn to music
took me across the sea
see how strong it was pulling
following your path
is not meant for foolish
cause people around me
Would understand what you doing
try to explain
only makes you look stupid
the solution
find your peace and move quick
life is too short
to waste
the truth hits
a little harder
when you lived thru some shit
Felt hollow like keven bacon on this bitch
Had to shake my foot lose
And keep
It Moving up
Like a lift
I’m on another level when spit
Never gonna settle like the mist
Everyday I’m learning that I really do exists
And I have to share the gems I find in passages
And spread them tracks like pathogens

I’m not perfect nigga
God no
Behind closed doors
God knows
Depression is real
trapped in
My own mental prison
Distorts reality
Looks likes a prisem
It’s not black or white
That’s how I got conditioned
To thinking we the victim
To the whims the system
My way back to the living
recite what I have written
You don’t have to like it
And you don’t have to listen
The way you live your life
Is nobody business
But you paying the price
Weather or not you admit it
So take your percription
Like a man
And zip it
And sit you ass down
For a minute
And let me finish
This advice is not limited
To strictly lyryist
The reason the fitt survive
Because they never quit
I wouldn’t wish this on my worse
I rather free Em
Every verse i drop
Hopefully it lead them
Out of the darkness
Bring that light that I’m seeing
From the other side
When I escape from my
But at times I’m so deep
the blackness seeps in
Can’t see
What’s in front of my eyes
For weeks man
Walking around dazed
No longer speaking
Thinking about the grave
As I pray to Jesus
I’mma share my secret
That kills my weakness
See as long as are alive
You got the power to beat this
it’s all in your mind
Redesign your being
You can decide when it’s time
To escape to freedom

Call my name and Ill be on my way
To take away all your hurt anxiety and pain
Introduce you to a brighter day
Its gone be ok kay kay kay
Lets go
Call my name and Ill be on my way
To take away all your hurt anxiety and pain
Introduce you to a brighter day
Its gone be ok kay kay kay
I didn’t invent this
Nor have I the power to prevent it
From happening
it senseless
Baffling At time
My mind Stretching
to find
the sliver lining
Of clouds
Passing Over us in the sky
want to believe the rain fall from angels eyes
Cause they can’t stand to see
The pain in our lives
Its unfair
soo many asking why in despair
So now is the time take your mind elsewhere
Leave your baggage on the shelf
You Dont need them for your welfare
This is all about healing , love ,beauty and self care
Show you the tools
To use when whenever feel weird
journey begins now
And I am bringing you up there
Dont have to go alone
Together we’ll climb up Those stairs
Then magically
Troubles disappear
In The air
Before you felt hopeless
Now your focused and clear
don’t owe me nothing homie
Just know that boy
care
Call my name and Ill be on my way
To take away all your hurt anxiety and pain
Introduce you to a brighter day
Its gone be ok kay kay kay
Lets go
Call my name and Ill be on my way
To take away all your hurt anxiety and pain
Introduce you to a brighter day
Its gone be ok kay kay kay
First destination
Take us
back when
A laugh
Contained
everything in life that made sense
With your main friends
Didn’t cost to entertain them
Spent hours in the days
Playing games you cant win
Next visit places
That spark the imaginations
Could be a tv show or a song on
station
Or a scent that takes ya
For a ride like transportation
Or out of this world like
Advanced
Teleportation
Now stick a pin in and save it
Like a picture from vacation
So where ever you go
you can always retrace it
See the brain is so cool and amazing
With a little effort
have the power reshape it
Rewinding time
Like a tape back in the day kid
Now you know the secrets
you able to shape shift
Never have to take shit
Your mind is practically a space ship
Now All you have to do
is decide where you want to take it

40 Winks feat Boodah

Rocking the fly attire
Standing with giants
We go back like mayans
intricate lines
Supplying
The world is ours
And we just might let you buy in
Electrifying
Stop your winning
Start designing
Everybody is rough diamond
Told me in high school
I’d be Locked up
Or dying
For while That defined who I am
Till I found gods plan
And saw they lying god damn
how Columbus found land
inhabited by man
education is scam
Its a business I understand
Like onxnx with have to slam
Our fist into the man
Don’t let them boys be boys
Can’t be silent no more
Knocking on heaven doors
Asking when the rain of injustice
no longer pours
Then I thought its us who
keep making all these wars
Thru history
not a period When men a pause

40 Acres and a Mule

Keep you’40 acres and mule
Just Tell me why police keep killing our black youths
cops shooting dudes
For not obeying rules
That could be me too
And mama ain’t raise no fool
They get a slap on a wrist
And laugh at this shit
Black families
Get caskets and tombs
Some get cash
But that can’t patch up the wound
an eye for an eye wont bring them back
Back to the womb
It’s 2021
How many sons
We got to lose
We at war
And they teaching is propaganda at schools
Its check mate before we even make a move
They playing games
And stay changing the rules
Is it their job to protect and serve
Or abuse
I’m sorry a little confused
Im not trying to get shot
Unless they taking bout the flu
just tired of watching the news
That’s the god damn truth
Mentally
We locked in chain
the media profit from pain
And misery drop on like rain
Can you blame us
For Popping some things
The obstacles in our way
Grow strong by the days
It’s hell on earth
And able Cain
Brother fighting brothers
Over laws
That’s Man made
What’s going on like
Why the hell we have a hard life
struggle is real
been a long fight
Didn’t huckle berry paint the picket fence all white
When you building up walls we all lose sight
Then get shown lies on the news nights
And you wonder why the citizens
Stay Wrapped so tight
And it only takes a spark
To blow Dynamite
And that fuse
Get lit
When we loose a life
I’ll change my attitude
When they gets right

One man
2 hands
1 dick
Excuse me while I grip
This microphone
And go dumb shit
flexing on this bitch
I am legend
With the pen men
A man in black
Getting jiggy
Yea I’m fresh like that
Straight off principal
When I running on them tracks
Where every I go them dudes gone give
me a dap
Simply
Cause I know how rap
Most the time I’m freestyling
And Im gone wow them with that
If I don’t know you I’m dial it back
Still the flow crazy
They say I’m high off crack
Nah
Sketch a song in a second
One man 2 hands 2 balls
Excuse me while I go nuts
T bag the whole song
Sorry been so long
Since I busting
I’m little raw
Shocking dropping y’all
But You can Get em
Free of charge
celebrate
a motherfucker like dead and gone
I want to be around to hear them people play my songs
So I say to my mom
You knew all along
Said to never settle
And reach for the stars
Now my bars are in the Milky Way
Next to Mars
And I’m feeling myself
Like a full body massage
Get that mummy
Wrapped up
In Egyptian gauze
scheme
Sits on top
Of pyramid
unnatural
Dog
I’ma get in where I fit in
Then rip it apart
I don’t do this for the charts
See I’m here for art
I wake up
Clock in
Everyday Is a job
But it really is cool
Like there ice in the box

At the end of the day it’s the end of the day
Simple as facts
Let me record this on wax
Look towards the present
Ignore your past
The future isn’t written
Enjoy it while it last
Came in this world alone
Met many on
On my path
First and foremost
My mother and dad
Who worked they ass
To give me what they aint have
I wouldn’t call us rich
But my memories
Wasn’t bad
Taught me to work
Set me up for greatness
On the backs of them
I stand up to take this and wrap up
Another chap-tee in the life
Of matt
Half my time I spent write here writing raps
No I ain’t ever made a whole heap of cash
But I still love the music and perfecting my craft
The dream was to do this
And I’m still doing that
Wasn’t always easy
But I learned to adapt
See the world needs me to continue to pass
My positive energy in to the atmo-mothers
At a time when blacks are most feared
That’s another album
Not here
Have to prepare our sons and daughters
For out there
It’s some scary time and I’m scared
How we got rights
When it’s not fair
I used to play in the streets
With no fear
Now they shooting kids
With both they Hands in air
Has to make you wonder
So they really care
This ain’t rhetorical
not just recording just to do a tune
They say change will come
But It’s over due
I mean Where it at When it’s rolling thru
Whose ass I got to kick I want to know the truth
Tell me why the elephants stay in the room
When being outside is the fucking zoo
We Get grays when we old
When it rain it can pour
And the days that passed are gone
But today
I sing my song
Because I’m alive
And I still got more things to do
