Standing on the Corner
Like Mask
[Intro: Adé Hakim]
Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh, yeah, yeah
Uh, uh, uh, yeah
[Verse 1: Adé Hakim]
If you got played before
The sun is shining rays of more concerning issues
Run around the maze, explore, like let it fix you
Jump up out the ways I no longer can fit you (Uh, uh)
Physically major, boy (Yeah)
No dumbing down my pay before I let it hit you (Hit you)
For my mom, bouquet of orchids ‘cause I miss you (Miss you)
I miss you (miss you, miss you, miss you)
And for my grandma, I’m a militant (Militant)
For the A&R, I’m a ill percent (I’m a ill percent)
And I’m still in the fence of my own product (Own product)
My gift comes with time, not robotic (Not robotic)
I was born with it, I was going through, forget it
Why I did it? My vision came to life, my mission (My mission)
It’s far from the air, nonstop for the plan
[Bridge: Adé Hakim]
I won’t go back, but I’m wishing you well (I’m wishing you well)
I’m wishing you well (Wishing you well)
I’m wishing you well (I’m wishing you well)
I’m wishing you well (For my mom, bouquet of orchids ‘cause I)
[Verse 2: MIKE]
Lost touch
All the sharing, feeling like I ball up
Find depression and, n***a saw butt
Now I’m speaking, can’t keep my jaw shut (Uh)
Law sucks, so we dodge ‘em one time
Rest in peace to grandmother one time
City streets and my mother’s sunshine
Enough whining, never stop
‘Cause a n***a stuck trying, fetishizing
My life and my color, I’m a giant
So regardless how I feel, I’m vibrant
Don’t tie me to your will, you’ll triumph
By the line, tell momma I’m hiding
All the life in the midst of the silent
I throw my dice ‘cause I’m in it, I’m grinding
I throw my dice ‘cause I’m in it, I’m
Every minute to the finish line
Little bitter what you get inside
And my heart, it be feeling like the renaissance
Another part getting put together every now, now
[Bridge: MIKE]
Know the words that I keep my power in
Another word that I keep this power in
Hit the dirt, but I keep on powering
Know my words that I keep my power and
Another word that I keep this power in
Hit the dirt, but I keep on powering
Know my words
[Outro: MIKE & Adé Hakim]
Know the words I keep the power in
Another word that I keep this power in
Hit the dirt, but I keep on powering
Hit the dirt, I know my words
I’m saying stay safe out here, bruh
Yeah
