James Lion - NEW ERA (SLAPZ) Lyrics

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Look
From the Hollywood sign to back home where the arch is
Where girls feeling sexy in they red they wanna arch it
Me I'm more concerned bout' the art that's where the heart is
Cause really all the trendsetters are the weird art kids
Who me yes I am one of the chosen they gone say that sparked it
From museum to stadium status where CityPark is
Moving with intent on a journey since I embarked it
This audio's proof that I am one of the city's hardest
Finest to be exact reason I move with caution
Cause just like my skin parts of the city be the darkest
But I ain't promoting that
Or tryna ride the social trend of rapping bout how my city the murder cap
Square cut circular pizza Imo's you heard of that
Half order Vess soda any flavor the perfect match
Summertime red hot in my bag like some Riplets I was whipping Tesla
Uber driving to get a check up unh
Still checking off the list I made with a vision
Once I crossed the city limits I instantly got to business
Called Tef and Mo I'm back ready to blow up what the word is
Gone for like nine and a half but now I'm back with purpose
Doing all what I said amazing just like the word is
All praise be every Sunday streaming the service
All praise be feel the spirit in all these verses
I ain't a preacher but they listen just like a sermon
Who doing what and when and with who it don't concern him
Helping to usher new bridges while the old ones burning
The old way of thinking is played new lessons we gone learn em
If you from the Lou say it proudly with your sternum
I got range like a rover rapper singer board controller
Way I float on beats might think I'm out recording in the ocean
These blessings coming like my pockets full of four leaf clovers
Getting rich off being what them dealers selling pure dopeness
Huh
Mmm
Back home with my head up my chest up my rest up I'm rested and blessed up
Becoming my best self that's next up you betcha
Checking off my checklist looking like I'm checked up
Mmm
St. Louis repper whoever said St. Louis ain't hip hop what the heck bruh
I am living proof that we got flavors by the extra
Jordy Smi and Sexxy we got range like a Tesla
I don't do the messy rather go watch Messi
St. Louis City SC they play my music heavy
My beats are just like water and I float on them like jet ski
To turn them into slaps that's the goal call me Gretzsky
Huh
What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' huh
What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' huh
What could you ever tell the man who overcame the negatives
From Baden to the stadium why would I ever settle when
Time keep proving time and time again and it is evident
That if I'm going to bet on anything that I should bet on him
Can't listen to no rhetoric from those who not pursuing it
Like how you gonna tell me what it's like when you not doing it
I wrote out a plan and then asked just how to move with it
He sent me right back home and said the Lou could use some you in it
What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' huh
What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' What you sayin' huh
I got slaps (slaps)
I got slaps (slaps)
I got slaps (slaps)
I got slaps (slaps)
Yeah yeah
I got slaps (slaps)
I got slaps (slaps)
I got slaps (slaps)
Don't get slapped
