Behind The Bars Episode 2: WWTD

Official Lyrics:

I used to hope that I would die young

You know

Because the good die young

And that's what I want

To be the best rapper ever of all time son

That's why I keep on pitching heat

Just like the Cy Young

I swear to god they call me Ty Young

But for the life of me I can't recall a time in my whole life

Where I didn't try to be the best and give it my all

Even after Ye told me that's when you die hard

The same eyes that they cry from

The same eyes looking at me on they timelines

Blind huh

Rest in peace to Nipsey he was God's son

He was God sent

So he could guide us

It's alright cuz thru the dark

I see the light

We got a bunch of real ones left

And 'fore they gone

Behind The Bars Episode 1: Guess Again

Official Lyrics:

Crisp cold that November wind

Baby when it blows

I remember when

I really thought

I could never win

Clearly I was wrong

Had to guess again

You ever wonder

What your purpose is

In this world

That ain’t for you to know

That ain’t for you to know

You’ll never know just

What your purpose is

In this world

Until after you’re gone

Never question yourself

Never second guess it

You’ve been through

All that oppression

You keep on looking better

You keep on pushing
Don’t quit

You just keep

Applying pressure

You keep on running to that money

Like your life was dependent

That’s called that perseverance

They don’t know about perseverance

They don’t know about

Sleeping all out in the rain

‘Cause your pride

Won’t let you share it

You don’t know about

Getting knocked down

Getting scammed
Getting robbed

All ‘cause of your spirit

Betting everything

On a 100 song tape

Scared that the world won’t hear it

Fitting to shelf myself

Sitting on a hard drive

And I won’t sign myself

To the dark side

I ain’t an industry plant

With the mob ties

How could I fund myself

To the multis

When I ain’t even

Got a dime to eat

Can’t run a business properly

Jobs treat me like property

So I’m on to the next
‘Fore my heart could beat

Ten toes hanging off the balcony

I’m about to jump what’s stopping me

All I ever do is cause problems see

Even though I really want to

Solve some things

Can you fly with me

Yeah yeah

Can you ride with me

Yeah yeah

Can you vibe with me

Can you slide with me

Through the apocalypse

Yeah I still remember

Like it was yesterday

Sleeping in the Concorde

Early November
When the power was out

In the house it was dark

Couldn’t play the Nintendo

That my grandmother

Got for us even though

She was living out of hotels

And barely supporting

Herself and

She was selfless

Give it up

Give The Lord thanks

Carpe Diem
Sieze The Lord’s Day

Shower myself

In The Lord’s grace

Until the day I see

The Lord’s face

I just spent a small fortune

On the show equipment

For my tour dates

Never took no shortcuts

And that’s why they

Fuck with me the long way

It don’t seem that far away

I was selling CDs in the hallway

I wouldn’t let them ignore me

Now they’re looking

Up at me the star way

Like look at me shine

It’s my time no no no no

Lost in the grind

Been a long long long long

Ride no no no no

Teachers thought

I was gon’ freeze up

I can’t freeze up

Still be rapping like

The rent due

Like the lease up

I still be representing Cleveland

Still gon’ throw my

Street up opps

Trying to put me

In the freezer but

Crisp cold that November wind

Baby when it blows

I remember when

I really thought

I could never win

Clearly I was wrong

Had to guess again

Crisp cold that November wind

Baby when it blows

I remember when

I really thought

I could never win

Clearly I was wrong

Had to guess again

Clearly I was wrong

Had to guess again

It’s a beautiful thing

To be wrong sometimes

It’s a beautiful thing

It’s a beautiful thing

To be wrong sometimes

I had to guess again

You ever wonder

What your purpose is

In this world

That ain’t for you to know

That ain’t for you to know

You’ll never know just

What your purpose is

In this world

Until after you’re gone

I had to guess again
