Gemini, gotta give it to em’ two times,
So I produce and I do rhymes,
Yea, I shine when the crew shines,
Drinking booze on the cruise lines,
The Long Island with the two limes,
Locks lavish AF just need a new line,
No, I’ve never driven a Ghost, but my boo fine,
Born in the Golden State,
Keeping the rap game on roller skates,
Longevity, so it’s no debate,
I seen faces come and go so it’s nothing major,
Once the buzz dies, swap it for another flavor,
Same Chizzle, they just got me on my worst behavior,
Read the word, from the curb shall emerge a savior,
Rejected stone foundation for a better home,
Secure the bag but man cannot live on bread alone,
Legends known to never die, but let me tell you why,
They motivation started with “WE” instead of “I”
The needs of the many outweigh the jewels and the keys to Bentley,
I’m out saving schools, doing deeds and repenting,
For when I was a fool and the rule was get plenty,
It’s all about the benji’s
Calling out to indies, earn by your own terms,
And watch Hollywood burn cause they deserve it,
My tribe got it from here, now thank you for your service,
They got a license to kill, they’ll shank you with a permit,
F’ the pigs though I ain’t no kin to Kermit,
The justice ain’t legal when they pay to spend the verdict,
And we can flourish when we see that we’re connected,
I am because we are and that’s the message,
I see success when I look at my reflection,
You can’t say the same, gotta change your perspective,
Angel with a broken wing feeling all defective,
Then God turns it to perfection,
Blessings….
