Picture This by TC Rapha published on 2021-06-22T18:40:41Z Picture This By TC Rapha Intro: Mic check, 1, 2. Gotta get this recorded. What’s on my mind... is a staple message. Gotta pin it down. TC Rapha... check it- Verse 1: Settin’ up this framework Showin’ y’all how the game works Hip-Hop is made up Of all our struggles Ion care if the pain hurts The one thang that’ll always be There for me is the music & errybody else who tags along Is there for the movement Be progressive, yo Ain’t talkin’ rates or just Flo Digest this clear like it’s crystal Presence shoots up From head to toe to lips That’s a missile The gift of life can have It’s own tempo Cuz at most Things slow down Or move too fast Your mind feels like It hits that dash to crash Patience never lasts Leading to a former past Of regrets & laughs But the good doesn’t seem To outweigh the bad But just weigh the facts Cuz the fact is This shit is but a fraction Of yo inhabitance So don’t call an ambulance When shots fire Cuz the shot that counts Will never miss Ignorance is bliss But choosin’ to be ignorant Will lead to the imminent Death has a will So where’s yo will to live? Hook: How we gonna work this out? What do y’all make of this? Tryna play it cool, but Shit don’t make no sense to me & yet I’m here What’s to make of all I’m told? Is there more covered up to unfold? I can’t give no advice I just have to come clean & say What’s true to me Verse 2: Now picture this A wife, a home, & kids Generational wealth to come & finding what your purpose is While next to your closest friends In the moment, nothing seems To wanna come to an end Cuz everything ends Where it all begins But what’s beginning to happen instead Is a life of terror & dread Corruption & a whole lotta red Ain’t thinkin’ steady, but instead You thinkin’ bout foes & the friends & those makin’ believe to pretend & those who just follow the trends So if the trend sets Then you go & send it You livin’ out the worlds Of those who spread the message That it’s fun to tote guns & drugs While stayin’ independent Well lemme ask ya this Why not work with a team That won’t be so forgiving? We here for da ones That struggle like us near the projects We here for da ones That do not want to lose their progress We here for da ones That ain’t blabbering all dat nonsense We here for da ones Speaking truth in & out of context Cuz what comes next You questioning why They always talk, but no involvement Relationships seem to stir That stirred mix is a concoction Made with ingredients That requires trust To form the process So be proactive Not reactive It takes logic Niggas beefin’ over hoes When the hoe is raunchy If they really schemin’ Then it’s twisted & we finna bop ‘em But if it’s all misunderstanding Then innerstand the problems & if not, you will rot Cuz shit can get toxic Hook: How we gonna work this out? What do y’all make of this? Tryna play it cool, but Shit don’t make no sense to me & yet I’m here What’s to make of all I’m told? Is there more covered up to unfold? I can’t give no advice I just have to come clean & say What’s true to me Verse 3: Sometimes I wish I Didn’t care so much Cuz then they’ll think I’m nice Wit it when I don’t give no fucks The only reason why I care Is cuz I do not see despair In disparity It’s a force of power Caused by Calamity Ganon Shootin’ shots through the cannon Affectin’ those, not just in battle But all they friends & family Surging destruction & war But what for? If all it is Is some tension & conflict We ain’t all compatible You’re asking what gives & not who gives A lotta people would Give up themselves To make you give up Cuz when it all goes down You’ll fall down to hell (x2) Hook: How we gonna work this out? What do y’all make of this? Tryna play it cool, but Shit don’t make no sense to me & yet I’m here What’s to make of all I’m told? Is there more covered up to unfold? I can’t give no advice I just have to come clean & say What’s true to me Genre Hip-hop & Rap Comment by Mirrīḫ nothing but truth - thanks for this man <3 2021-06-22T19:08:25Z Comment by JayWxlking 💔💔💔 2021-06-22T19:07:23Z
