Tesla In A Pandemic

(album: California Poppy 2 - 2020)

Yeah, yeah
I'm on the expensive mic today, I might sound a lil' different
Ayy

I wrote this shit for Ronnie, just know I'm here for you, brother
Reminiscing on them days when I shed a tear for you, brother
Know the toughest days you've been through are in the rear for you, brother
God moves on His own time and He made it clear to you, brother
See the finish line
I visualized realities I wanted, then invented mine
It ain't how you start, it's how you finish, word to the scrimmage line
Luckily my hustle is my passion, this shit intertwined
I could pop a yerba, I don't need it though, I'm energized

Ayy, look, man, listen (Uh)
I just copped a Tesla in the pandemic
Used to pull up in my pop's truck with bad transmission
Bust a ho in it, he find a condom, now my dad tripping
Huh, look, man, listen
What you going through isn't permanent, it's a transition
You're a superstar in your own film, it's fan-fiction
Hey, I just copped a Tesla in the pandemic

Ayy, I know what I want, I got the tunnel vision (Uh)
Double up and flip it, start another business (Huh)
Meditate daily or else I get to tripping
'Cause rapping is easy but staying humble isn't
Overthinking nights when I twist and flip in the bed
And my Twitter feed turns into little voices in my head
Like why is it so hard to see the positive instead?
We consuming more than food, but look at what we being fed (Huh)
Praying for my dawg, hope he sucka-duck the fed
Pray for my mama body, hope they cure it with the med
The plague hit her in the lung, liver and the head
Got a herbalist to help with the reversal of the spread (Huh)
Still thanking God when I break bread
It's hard to complain, we ain't dead (Huh)
You can feel the energy that ain't said
And that's why we keep it positive, we gotta keep it positive

Hey, look, man, listen (Huh)
I just copped a Tesla in the pandemic
Used to pull up in my pop's truck with bad transmission
Bust a ho in it, he find a condom, now my dad tripping
Hey, look, man, listen
What you going through isn't permanent, it's a transition
You're a superstar in your own film, it's fan-fiction
Huh, I just copped a Tesla in the pandemic
