Light One Write One
[Verse 1]
I just fired one up, now I'm in the zone
Sometimes I write inside my head and leave my pencil and my pen alone
My eyes got big when hearing B.I.G. did the same thing
Also, Shawn Carter 'cause they both became king
Now dare I say, that one day I'll be in the conversation of who's great
Those who punch below their weight don't want a confrontation
Just blaze when the sets roll
I could be Halley's Comet in a vessel
If I wasn't, would life be less stressful? I don't know
I think dead ends are new beginnings to grow
Like Five on the Black Hand Side, taking pride in your 'fro
During Jim Crow, just let it Jim go, did you catch it?
I hope it was caught by some kid whose parents got divorced
And they think it's their fault
Don't carry that with you as an adult, it could make you depressed
From your subconscious head, in the vault
Believe me, I know, and that ain't on the low-low
I put myself in this song, you don't picture me as strong
You got the wrong photo
I killed all my demons and lived to tell the tale
Where they dumping bodies in the Great Lakes to sell the sale
Or leave you right where you stand for your Pelle Pelle and Starter coat
I saw how one could stab you in the back could also part your throat
What a shame that people feel they gotta go there
Then later find out they ain't going nowhere
I'm so rare when I jot it
That I've compared my lines to the ones that you shave from a narcotic
And ain't nobody touching our product
Them other n***as good, but let's be real
My cup runneth over, they need fresh refills
They probably got 'em from fast food spots that make you obese
In the hood, are those the only places we can go feast?
If so, I wonder if it's more to it
Since every corner got a liquor store with crooked police
And swear you in a stolen car and not a car with no lease
And you got drugs inside a stash box along with your piece
Peace to Sandra Bland, Eric Garner and Kaepernick
What happened to all in the same gang?
"Self-Destruction" when popular rappers stick together for a cause
Now they doped up from their flaws
Excuse me while I pause to blow strains
[Pre-Chorus]
Hundred dollar gram blunts
Them killers that made popo start up manhunts
Take a puff and jot it better than you can, dunce
I'll be happy if I only touched a fan once, 'cause

[Chorus]
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is write
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is...
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one

[Verse 2]
I was chiefin' when I wrote this, forgive me if I go astray
You should play this loud while you twist a blunt or if you roll a J
This one here is for all my West siders who 'dro sparkin'
All my n***as off that east side high like Joe Clark
Facing nightmares that really are dreams that grow dark
They take a left turn in alleyways where you can smell the meth burn
I wonder who they bought it from and just how much the chef earn
To make a fiend out some teen that look like Audrey Hepburn
Or Steve McQueen, I've seen 'em in a movie once
On a late night, was with this bad chick
We smoked about two-three blunts
Then I made her climax, next week we hit the IMAX
But I had to cut her off 'cause she was out for my stacks
She wasn't in the gym with me, nor did she drop a gem
Witty at the open mic in El's, Royce and Em city
I recall Paul telling all three of us in St. Andrew's Hall
We would carry Detroit on the small
Of our back then put it on the map
'Cause when I rap, I leave circular traces around a clown so fast
It's a blur to their faces and stripped focus
I came out swinging like a pendulum assistin' in a hypnosis
On some "listen closely and do what I say"
Run and tell ten of your friends to stream this album all year
And while they at it, make sure they tell ten of they co-workers
So that they can do the same
Put the Dutch to the flame and blow strains
[Pre-Chorus]
Hundred dollar gram blunts
Them killers that made popo start up manhunts
Take a puff and jot it better than you can, dunce
I'll be happy if I only touched a fan once, 'cause

[Chorus]
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is write
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is...
All I do is light one, write one
All I do is light one, write one

[Outro]
Yeah
This some strong-ass shit here, man
Aw, shit
Man, turn this down for these motherfuckers
Tell 'em then start fuckin' with me
Man, I hope they don't drug test at my job, dawg
My motherfuckin' urine test gon' come back lookin' like Italian dressin' in that motherfucker
I'm sayin', shit
