Keon - Talk Show (feat. Snelly) Lyrics

Tryna work on myself as I level up this music
I'm not gon' be a bum, that lifestyle I'm refusing
Sins and bad habits, that shit I'm reducing
Ben's me a savage these beats I'm abusing
Always under pressure to perform so it's diamonds I'm producing
Yeah I been in the eye of the storm, I'm maneuvering
Into brighter days 'cause I'm getting sick of losing
Winning or finding my peace, I'm not choosing
Beginning to see that I can be fusing
If it's to be I'm gon' be transcending
It's imminent how we are gon' be trend setting
Different state of mind I'm airbending
Wondering how I can level up this pen
It's thundering outside let's double down again
As I walk through this motherf*cking storm
What I've gone through just hoping I transform like a
Caterpillar to a butterfly
Boutta spread my wings and show y'all that I'm really fly
Gotta be a superstar I can't just be another guy
Won't go on a layaway 'til I'm bumping like 808s
Gonna take it day to day I will be jumping with the greats
I'm tired, tryna stay awake I won't be pumping on the breaks
Gotta keep it rolling y'all know these flows ain't stolen
Bigging up myself because all my raps I'm owning
Yea I'm with your girl and your name not what she moaning
I'm sorry that's a lie that shit I can't be condoning
Tryna keep it healthy 'cause I cannot do that toxic
Tryna keep it stealthy, but it's hard I wanna talk shit
I don't watch those Talk Shows, they really don't go off script
Always try to think in black and white, yeah that really be my logic
Yeah you know that's how I live my life, least I'm honest
Boutta go and step into the light, it's iconic
I'm talkin' to the masses
Beat is sugarcane & I'm kickin' your molasses
I struggled in the gym classes
You a lion in Detroit but I'm flowin like the Grand Rapids (grrr)
What does a hater know? (What do they know, they out the loop)
What's a Muggsy to a Yao Ming? (You get to thinking)
I tell 'em what's a pawn to a king?
What's a don to a G?
Hoppin' onto the beat, the way I operate is like a lock and key
I'm in it all for the cheese (cheese!)
Life is like a slip and slide (slippery slippery)
Me and Snelly seek the music all you do is hide
The situation happenin' I take it all in stride
Tell 'em look in a mirror when they say to swallow pride (reality check)
As a man I keep myself in check
Pool side flows tell the folks to hit the deck, I'm writin' in my rolodex
I pray to God we never wreck (never that)
Forget the pacifism, I move like a fighter jet
But if we fightin' then it really better be a step (it gotta be)
In the right direction so I know I'm never left (I'm never that)
My conscious conscience no it never slept (don't got time for that)
I took a leap of faith the only one cuz no one leapt
I woke up thinkin' bout success, bed head, Shark Tank
Need all of my redemption, Red Dead, Shawshank
My eyes drop, my cheeks red, I'm twitchin', my jaws faint (jaws faint)
Can't put none of us on that Death Row, we all saints (all saints)
New Orleans, you old news (ha ha)
I sell like hot cakes, you cold brew
Got two chains on me, my gold grew
Convince you with my words, sold you
The birdies chirpin' outside and my eyes like a hawk (phew!)
Time is money got those eyes glued to the clock
Not a one man show we move just like a flock
Now the plot thickens so that is my signal just to stop
