about

I wrote this song during the pandemic and wanted to celebrate myself, my family, and friends. We went through so much that it felt right to exercise joy instead of pain which is something I'm pretty good at and I worked with a new producer so that was fun too

lyrics

Popcorn

Yeah, Yeah
Folks like..where u been?
Just been laying low reading a lot of books
Where you been?
Pandemic had me like soul searching
Guys

Picasso with the words tho
Jizzle got the herb smoke

She know that I can't hang
Still family gang gang

Bang bang

Anyone sending shots this way.
Ptsd if wondering how I got this way

Talk about it wit my shrink though
That rose got a pink glow
I used to wash our clothes in the sink doh

I Slowed down on the henny too

Pandemic snapped, clapped back
Astronomical
Deeper than rap
Perhaps it's on tap
Imagine that
Every line laced
With an Ungodly expertise
The freshness n ease
Grab the keys
Press the button
Hit the gas
Accelerate hit the coast
Sip n toast
Cause we made it
OK we made it

Cause we made it
Only right to celebrate it

Remember all the nights I got faded
Late night text x-rated
When the ex vacated
Left hanging


Get ya popcorn
lights camera action
No words
no captions
Stir it
Whip it up
This is us
And We up
And its stuck


Kay you're so romantic I guess
I just got tired of playing with all the semantics

A yo This novel is graphic
And its Meticulously crafted

Struggle is the truth devil aint got me
Yall can do better man that roll out was sloppy

Had to grow and go
Outgrew some things
Transformation if you don't know what I mean

10,000 hours
no more
Perfected a craft don't ask how anymore
Nothing to prove
Just know that she smooth
Putting money in the cup
Investing in the youth
What is the conclusion
Where is the evidence
Just speak your truth
Cause that's never irrelevant
This is why telling stories is so prevalent
This is a privilege
Opposite of malevolent


Get ya popcorn x4
lights camera action
No words
no captions
Stir it
Whip it up
This is us
And We up
And its stuck


Never quit
Never stop
There some things I gotta fight for
What you think God gave me the mic for
Mic lord
Could never hang myself with this mic cord
Its my parachute
I'm at the clearing free of fearing
Lost my voice
Got it back
Gained weight lost it back
Left my friends lost some friends
Reacquainted with my pen
Stubborn bout my growth
Where does it end ..
Where.does it begin
This is greater that me
Embrace The struggle
Legacy building
And still remain humble
When it all falls
when it crumbles
Ill be remembered at the protagonist

Fuck wit it
my nemesis
Been in my shadow
Since the exodus
And since the genis

Put that on my son
Maliyah even Belli
Love Jones E money
Who asking? We money

Get ya popcorn ×4
lights camera action
No words
no captions
Stir it
Whip it up
This is us
And We up
And its stuck
