so this is the track that is not remixed, but brand new. the beat however is old school asf, made a long long time ago by my dear friend and close collaborator, Harizma (Productions).
I wrote this track over a couple of smokes on a late evening/early morning. I get a lot of random deja vu moments every now and then, and I wanted to put that into a more precise context, in this case touching upon having visions of success in the future.
as a whole, this track is designed to keep you going. who knows when you imagined yourself becoming a better version? but you did and now you have the ability to make it happen.
lyrics
saw this vision in a past life
but I don't know when
deja vu moving funny
I gotta handle my money
I saw this vision in a past life
but I don't know when
deja vu moving funny
I gotta handle my money
something keeps holding me down
cause im grounded
simple and plain, I ain't moving
til I leave you astounded
something I've found
my power's unbound
fatality now
when we pull up in your town
I'm bringing you colour
some green, some yellow, and all this mahogany brown
making music for your entertainment
and mine, shameless
I dont need to be on the A list
I don't make tracks to be famous
I just wanna share my voice
make noise, god gave no choice
built for this I was made for the game
rhymes are insane, in my own damn lane, mm
I dont feel shame or hate
I just sit and reflect
premonitions of a grand empire
a little more cashflow, I desire
this is that fresh out the oven, that fire
ambitious, yeah I'm taking you higher
round and round on this merry go
we call life and I'm oh so tired
always bounce back,
call me a tire
always recording
I'm wearing a wire
gotta be honest, keep it a hundred
I'll come for your throat if you call me a liar
main goal, is to stack and retire
they know, they don't need to enquire
balling now, cause I found me a buyer
always be stunting in casual attire
yeah
saw these visions in my sleep
visions in my sleep
need that p cause shit ain't cheap
saw these visions in my sleep
visions in my sleep
need that p cause shit ain't cheap
saw this vision in a past life
but I don't know when
deja vu moving funny
I gotta handle my money
I saw this vision in a past life
but I don't know when
deja vu moving funny
I gotta handle my money
I gotta handle my money and quickly
times get tough
but you gotta keep on keep on going
cause there ain't no end
I'm tryna relax and rap with my friends
I wanna Beemer or maybe a Benz
I like to switch it up on em when they don't expect
you'll never know what I'm giving you next
yes, oh yes
I like to bring something different
so maybe I won't get a Benz
it's a bit dead in my ends
I won't pretend
I'm petty as hell but I make my amends, yeah
I'm petty as hell but I make my amends, yeah
