Lyrics

Middle fingers to the powers that be

Making a rebellious gesture towards authority figures or those in control

Long days like to smoke a lil loud help me sleep

Long, tiring days prompt a desire to smoke marijuana, aiding sleep

Help to quiet down the sounds that's how I found some relief

Smoking helps to quiet the mind and find relief from noises/distractions

A lil strong to get me high to keep me grounded when I'm weak

Using marijuana to both elevate mood and stay grounded during vulnerability

I hope the flower that I smoke can match the flowers at my feet

Hoping the quality of the marijuana matches the beauty of the surroundings

Can feel the spirit moving hope she don't leave

Feeling a spiritual presence and hoping it remains

Cause when she disappear that's when life appear to be lonely

Fearing loneliness when the spiritual presence fades

Smile on my face but the real me is what you don't see

Masking true feelings with a smile

The only way you'll see is by peering really closely

Real emotions only visible upon close inspection

That's when you'll see it etched on my face, its like emoji

True emotions evident in facial expressions like an emoji

Expressions show inside its a dragon like master Roshi

Internal emotions like those of a powerful, wise character (Master Roshi)

Or Yoshi, might breath a lil' fire the air get toasty

Possibly intense reactions akin to breathing fire like a dragon

Hope you can stand the heat if you ever dare to approach me

Warning about intensity if someone approaches during strong emotions


Search for better days that's on a day to day

Constantly seeking better days on a daily basis

Said if I don't find a way I'm gonna make a way

Determined to find or create a solution if not found

But every breath I take it seems the time just waste away

Feeling that time passes without progress

The end is coming I don't got no time to take a break

Sense of urgency due to impending end or deadline

Hope its averted don't the sermon say amazing grace

Hoping for miraculous intervention against an unfortunate fate

That seem like high wishes if your intention evading fate

Seeming like wishful thinking if avoiding destiny

Been tryna save the minutes don't got no patience to take away

Trying hard not to waste time, eager to make a difference

Tryna change the world in a major way so imma shoot my shot

Striving to make a significant impact, taking a chance

Just watch the form its like number 8 with the fadeaway

Referring to a confident move or action, likened to a basketball shot

Don't player hate, boots and a cape guess its time to save the day

Ready to act heroically, saving the situation

Tryna make the family proud like Dejonae, then pave the way

Ambition to make family proud and set an example

Cause we gone have to fight and I ain't talking black and white

Preparing for a different kind of fight, beyond racial conflicts

Cause the struggle come in many different colors and 50 shades of grey

Life's challenges come in various forms and complexities

That's why I'm screaming fuck the world make her moan right

Expressing frustration with the world, seeking intense connection

Love it when she low ride, wet no its not the low tide

Enjoying intense, passionate moments

Surf it like the ocean we floating just like a boat ride

Metaphorically floating through life’s challenges, staying afloat

Lost in this passion hope I don't crash as I approach my

Concern about losing control in pursuit of passion or goals

Demise but I'm know I'm gone fly, I serve the most high

Aware of approaching end but confident in spiritual beliefs

Suited up, bowtie, like I'm selling some old pies

Presenting oneself confidently but in an unconventional manner

When you always flashing its noticeable when you don't shine

Noticing when someone who usually stands out seems subdued

That's when the night get dark and I need you to hold me close

Seeking comfort and closeness during dark, challenging times

I been searching

Continuously seeking, possibly for meaning or purpose
