[Evidence Talking]
Where Iâm from they say the sun shine all the time
I keep seeing rain⦠yeah
[Evidence: Verse 1]
Uh, squeezing blood from a rock
Making something out nothing, thatâs something I got
Thatâs one thing I had, while the others didnât get it
They was chasin the world I brought it right to my block
Brought it back to the (uff?)
Stay reppin my coast⦠poof, I was blowin the spot
Without knowin or not, not knowing a thing
Trying to prove to most, made it open my lane
I found my slot, they went right, E-V went left
So Common, one day itâll all make sense
Soundbombinâ; no way weâll all make ends
Survival of the fit, a few win, but most quit
Or fend for themselves so hereâs to good health
Hereâs to drama, two up and one of âem fell
Hear,
hear, to that, this is for my LA Cats
And Dogs who never left to the world, âWe Backâ *Câmon
Hook Aloe Black
Sometimes I ask myself, âWhy would I need anyone else?â
To Be Determined
To make it through this life⦠when everythingâs a brand new (vibe?)
I had struggles in every single muscle, always on the hustle and I know⦠and I know I canât make it, on my own
[Elzhi: Verse 2]
Had visions of being caked up
On the island while the weatherâs freezing
Whether he's in the French Caribbean
Swimming with amphibians
Or in Hawaii blowing Maui Wowie, life is good
I dodge bullet grazes
Slash the nights that coulda ended my existence
For instance, through the persistence, the distance
We formed a number of statistics
Once a lot smaller looking up to Shot-callers, not ballers
We never grew up just got taller
Trying to find freedom in a trap
Hungry for success they eat up
Thereâs food for thought I feed âem in a wâRapâ
Iâm taking trips to France
Make it rain where the strippers dance, dance
Sip in hand, grippin my money clips in hands
It was hell, I thought I saw demons hiding in lost souls
Straight out the evil books inside of my far scrolls
They say you should toss goals, throw away your dreams
That nothing go the way it seems, Itâs done or
You feelin unsure, but thatâs what this oneâs for
Chorus: [Once]
[Aloe Blacc: Verse 3]
Push as hard as you want, against the wall bro
Push the wall, knew they be looking for you like Waldo
Times was harder than before, when it was fun and games
When we was just spittin rhymes trying to get a bigger name
Now car notes involved and bills require grindinâ
Whoâd ever thought that Aloe Blacc get back to rhyminâ
Street philosophers could theorize, âitâs all timinââ
Economist would say, âItâs kinda rough to find a diamondâ
And all the simple lining in the clouds couldnât change
The simple fact that it pours when it rains
All more of the same
And my score in the game, let it reflect
That I earn every little bit of respect I get
[Aloe Blacc Singing]
Oh, itâs time, get up off the wall cross that line
My momma told me that every flower needs rain shower
Like it need sunshine
I know I can make it, you know you can make it, We can make it
If you get on yo Grindâ¦
[Evidence]
Rain keeps fallinâ¦
