Flying Lotus
Between Friends
First off
My names Josh
Swimmin’ in water that’s full of sharks
Boil the water up
Seven sins, oh did I forget to mention?
I gotta eye for these dimensions and flows that put me on a level like no other
Grinding from the gutter he spark the idea and it light off like a rocket
Pocketing all of the profits I make, seven days straight I been in the race
I'ma graduate to a masters flow witnin a year, I'll also be a 2015 XXL Artist to be feared
Me and my homies just decided to record
Flowing like a master, my craft nurtured
And turned me into who I am
The basis of your understanding can't compare with mine
I got the knowledge from my past lives in past times
Hoping I can do it better you know, this time around
Maybe start a legacy and hold onto the crown
I gotta make-shift studio in my crib where I can be found
Just killing this shit, individually at a time
Line em all up and watch the hearses drive through musical crimes
This is sweet poetry, and right now all I feel is bliss
But I’m still caught up with the times
I’m turning to a influence to the kids
Chopping it up, shit is dicey, always grimy
And women speak so good of him like Jay is right on timing
Defining what it takes to be in a winner spot
Pass the pot, us users been making the music for years that y’all bump to
And if I’m mistaken, please somebody correct me
I ain’t tryna be friendly, I’m just speaking my mind
That’s how true art is made in our day of time
I’m one of a kind, and my craft defines
Who I am at heart, maybe my subconscious is talking
I’m waiting for a coffin, for one of y’all to put me in
They scared to say something like damn he been going in
I’m rhyming and tying knots at the end
You was in first place but now you’re just a trend
And I ain’t tryna be like that, don’t mistake this for some wack shit
Reminiscing of how long it'll take
Never waiting to be great I gotta do it on my own
I've been flowin without y'all knowin
Now let's just get it public I'm ready to show em
