(album: Smile, You're Alive! - 2021)

We speak a silent art, humble when we go to work
Diligent like Noah's Arc, negligent of Mother Earth
Father Time be on the clock trippin when he on a perc
Sipping when the light is dark whippin finna hit a skrt
Screeching on a tire mark limping when we feel the hurt
Lifted when we find a spark take a chance extend a vert
Shooting with a higher arc bigger man bigger shirt
Bigger fit to size my heart oversized the introvert
Fuck it I said don't call me the rapper nigga I'm Pittsburgh's Chance
All that shit y'all be talking don't even fit your stance
Yall just an image to the game for us to make our plans
For us to make our moves, y'all just an interlude

Normally I don't talk my shit, but the rains about the fall
So I don't give no shits
I don't give no fuckss, yall can suck my dick
All I needed was my soul and you just sold your shit
I been depressed for awhile but
Now I smile through fog cus I wont be here long
I been patient with the waiting cus I been that strong
I never switched for the image or just to pop for a minute
I always stuck to my guns extended
My range that far
And all my niggas around me ain't never changed with the weather
When the rain pour down we all just pulled out umbrellas
We always saw brighter days even if we walkin for miles
I had enough of complaining so I'mma walk with a smile it's all good

Hey you gon be my baby daddy Benji.
Nope
But you the only one I fucked so you the father Benji.
Nope
But I'm 5 months pregnant this your daughter Benji.
Nope
If you don't raise this baby you gon make it harder Benji.
Ehhhhh
First off yeah I hit it raw it shouldn't have happened
The next day **** smashed you in the lamest of fashions
So when you told me you were pregnant peep the question I asked you
Are you sure it ain't his? My pull out game is immaculate
You said y'all ain't never fucked so you lying already
You said the dates match up to me to go prepare the confetti
I said fuck it I'mma own it lord knows I'll be petty
Imma raise my baby girl but something never felt steady
4 1/2 months later she's fuckin ready to pop
I'm fuckin anxious this situation put me through a lot
5am I'm walkin in to see my daughter alive
Opened the door to see her face and got a crazy surprise

This baby don't look a damn thing like me
Oh shit got damn this some shit I can't believe
I'm black af this baby yellow yellow yellow like a bus
My hair so nappy when I comb it I start bleeding from my gums
See I got royalty loyalty all up in my DNA
You out here trying to collect royalties based off my DNA
We took a test to confirm it to match the gift of discernment
You not the father my nigga go back to living you heard me
