Find My Way

(album: War & Wonders - 2021)

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo (Riding, sliding, dip, yeah, dip, slide, ride, ride)
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo (Riding, sliding, dip, yeah, dip, slide)

Uh, I'm riding, sliding
Dipping through the streets at a slow creek
Quota for the week, said we vibing
'Til we find a sweet lick on a free tip
MC Hammer for the defense, heat by my side
It's barely 7:30 and the sun climbing over the East side horizon
With suit and tie, I'm headed to the biggest stage I ever engaged in
The classroom, I lead with passion, still, I'm a tyrant
Sped-ed teaching, beatboxing, and beating up on these beats
Better students ain't know, got the heat up under the seat
'Cause he traveled through five different hoods between his commute
Light a fire, inspired, and write, record, and repeat
I'll be damned if a hater stop me from doing the Lord's work
Niggas be banging their turf, as if this is your dirt
Me and my heater two polar opposite titans
One of us ain't 'bout nothing, the other one black and violent, but we riding

I'm just riding, tryna find my way again, yes sir
I can't deny it, no-no, no-no (Yeah)
Tryna find my way again (Huh, no)
I'm tryna find my way

Look, before I got kudos from Dave Chapelle
I copied used clothes, pulled hoes, and gave 'em hell
I was thrifting, spending money I didn't have
I was tripping, knew I was gifted
But somehow all the gags that I utilized to get between the thighs left me hollow
Tough to leave those who conceive when you don't follow your creator
But it got greater later, I was in my beta, a chaser of flavors, I could savior my behavior
To be a player was never in my nature
It was nurtured and catered to as favor by neighbors who were fakers of love
That dwelled in the ghetto
And then I met Fat who cracked the code and get all them devils up off me
I can't lie, I resisted
I told her she wasn't the one, she dismissed it
But her persistence led to both of us beautifully vibing
And my commitment level rising, but low-key, I was just riding

Said I'm riding (You feel me?), tryna find my way again (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I can't deny it, no-no, no-no
Tryna find my way again, huh
Said I'm tryna find my way, ooh

Eyes to the sky like I'm supposed to
Only holding on to a close few
In the old school with the leather insdes
Let's ride

I'm riding, sliding
Never would I thought even when I caught up, there'd still be no arriving
Realty, my portfolio building as I'm driving, I see through the lens of investor
I'm bold with this gang, you can't check us
You're girl with the fame, she can't stretch us
No sir, I got pain on my record
That's stainless, stay dangerous
Can't blame us, the trauma endured
Made me conscious and pure
Still I find myself riding, sliding
Dipping through the streets at a slow creek
Quota for the week, said we vibing
'Til we find a sweet lick on a free tip
MC Hammer for the defense, heat by my side
It's barely 7:30 and the sun climbing over the East side horizon
With suit and tie, I'm headed to the biggest stage I ever engaged in
The classroom, I lead with passion, still, I'm a tyrant
