Verse 1
It's only up from here
Saw couple greys and touched my beard
Still out here lookin' young, just lost some hair
I've been swingin' my sword, a musketeer
Up early on that mornin' rush for years
Blueprint, buildin' a construction
The wrong leaders, we're leaded to destruction
I never trust 'em, I sold drugs, but never touched 'em
Sold to customers then eruption
Fuck the radio, I blew like a volcano
Standin' next to Kano, I'm posted up with Mano
All my shooters, they been with man from day though
I'm a street nigga, I'm too busy, I got to keep my mum full
I got to level up, go to get uncomfortable
But, still amongst them, dysfunctional
Savages on timin', got to keep punctual
They said I wouldn't make it, "He's a failure"
I'm stealin' nigga's faces
On your radar, big in different places
I'm too cold, they been tryna replace me
It's gettin' old

Chorus
Time, it's only gotten faster
I got to keep it movin', got so much to look after
I live through the guidance
Keep diggin', got to dig for your diamonds
Time's tickin', listen

Verse 2
Is this the way I go?
Everyday I'm thinkin' 'bout that, there's not a day I don't
These niggas braggin' 'bout what they did first
I never talk about shit, that's the way I go
I'ma play the game well, get that players dough
I just spoke to MO, said he's layin' low
Mum started up the business, and she say, "It's slow"
It will pick up soon, just stay in the flow
My soldier never says nothin', just stands in his zone
He's just like that, he's just playin' his role
My nigga hit me, he was stressed, think he wanted to talk
That's a minor
Told him, "Stay on the phone 'cause I don't mind that"
Let's keep it movin' cautious, just don't slip up
Bro, but keep it movin' forward
Full flow and I'm lookin' at these quarters
I'm growin' my own flowers and keepin' them all watered
The Devil's got his pitchfork and he's loud
You should never look a gift horse in the mouth
Thinkin', "Payback is the best sport," I'm so tired
And my patience is a bit short, but, I'm alive
Listen, I don't like your reasons, she don't like to reason
She thinks 'cause man don't cry, that man ain't got no feelings
She showin' she loves him, he doesn't believe her
He showin' he loves her, she doesn't believe him
Bad communication killin' off the evenin'
This isn't the way man really wants to leave things
I'll just come back afterwards
I'm just flabbergasted
It don't matter who's the closest or who's the furthest
You got to trust the process
It's educational and we won't stop 'til the worth's generational
Man ran up and took a swing and hit a baseball
You can hate on the ting, but, that's disgraceful
I'm a ninja and she's April
I'm just playin' with her
I'm just playful
Yo, listen
