[Verse 1] The clock ticks sluggish in this hollow tomb, Your shadow dances where the roses loom. Silence whispering through photos we framed, Now every memory’s lost, none can be claimed. [Verse 2] Table set for two, but I dine with the wind, Every meal flavored with shards of what’s been. Your laugh, a tune stuck on a broken cassette, Rewinds in my mind, but I can't hit eject. [Chorus] Fading echoes, you're a ghost in my head, Every step forward feels chained to the dead. Words unsaid, heavy weights on the tongue, Songs of sorrow in a language left unsung. [Verse 3] Curtains billow like they keeping secrets tight, Moonlight spies on the tears I shed at night. Your perfume lingers like an unpaid debt, Haunts my air, every breath a slow regret. [Verse 4] Paint peeled walls, the stories they keep, Dreams unravel where night used to sleep. Chandeliers swinging, shadows take flight, Dancing on ceilings 'til the dawn kills the night. [Bridge] Splinters of your voice shred my ears raw, A melody missed, now my solace withdrew. Mirror shows a stranger, not a hint of who I was, Chasing old glories while forgetting the cause.

[Intro] चल, उठ, भाग, मत कर इंतजार, मेहनत का रंग दिखे, जब हो इरादे शानदार! [Verse 1] कल तक जो बोले, तू कुछ नहीं, आज वही बोले, तू सबसे सही, खुद पे यकीन था, दिमाग में आग, सपनों के पीछे, बस लगाई भाग। [Chorus] सफलता की कहानी, ये दिल की रवानी, पसीने से लिखी, हर लफ्ज़ में जुबानी। जो सोचा, वो पाया, हार कहां मानी, मेहनत की ताकत, बनी ज़िंदगानी। [Verse 2] चाय की दुकान पे, सजा था सपना, जेब में सिक्का कम, मगर हौसला अपना। कैसे सुनता, दुनियावी फसाना, अपना खुदा है, कर्म का خزाना। [Bridge] गिर के संभलना, ये खेल पुराना, अंधेरों में चमका, जो बना दीवाना। बिना रुके लड़ना, जंग खुद से है, हर कदम से गूंजे, अब सफर का शोर है। [Chorus] सफलता की कहानी, ये दिल की रवानी, पसीने से लिखी, हर लफ्ज़ में जुबानी। जो सोचा, वो पाया, हार कहां मानी, मेहनत की ताकत, बनी ज़िंदगानी।

Yo, it's a heated debate, Caliban’s on fire, Cursing Prospero, raising up his ire. He wants revenge, yeah, he wants ‘em to hurt, Wishing pain, wishing spirits make ‘em curse. Prospero steps up, ain’t backing down, Says, "You’ll feel the spirits when they come around." Cramps and pinches, yeah, you gonna pay, For talking back in this island’s fray. This island’s mine, left by my mother, You took control, locked me under. Once you taught me, now I suffer, Colonized my world, like no other. Once upon a time, you treated me kind, Taught me the stars, taught me to shine. Now I'm a prisoner, locked in chains, Tied to your rules, feeling the pain. Power and control, it's the name of the game, You came to my home and you changed my name. Stripped my rights, took my land, Left me with nothing but these scars in the sand. This island’s mine, left by my mother, You took control, locked me under. Once you taught me, now I suffer, Colonized my world, like no other. Caliban speaks, yeah, hear my voice, I want it back, I need my choice. But the battle ain't fair, the fight ain't right, Still, I rise up—ready to fight.

[Verse] Back streets humming, heart's an engine revving, Clock ticks slow, but the grind stay pressing. I'm chef in the kitchen, got the heat, no stressin’, Stew pots boiling, my dreams manifesting. [Chorus] Off my lane, I’m swerving past doubt, Voices in my brain screaming, “Find your route!” Wear a crown made from sweat and pain, Out the mud, I’m rising, breaking every chain. [Verse] Eyes sharp, hawk vision on the come-up move, Every scar on my skin is a battle groove. Story wrote in the dirt, this is wisdom proof, Built from ashes, phoenix feather in my booth. [Bridge] Hold up; clocks ain’t loyal, they never stop. Minutes slip fingers like change at the shop. Don't fold, don’t bend when it’s getting hot; Pressure makes the gem that they all forgot. [Chorus] Off my lane, I’m swerving past doubt, Voices in my brain screaming, “Find your route!” Wear a crown made from sweat and pain, Out the mud, I’m rising, breaking every chain. [Verse] Talk slick? I’m the oil in the pen that glides, Word alchemy, flip thoughts, and collide. Game’s a deck, I shuffle through where the truth lies, Stack my aces, back pocket where my truth flies.

**Verse 1** Yo, step into the ring, it’s a battle of the mind, Hate’s a heavy weight, but I’m ready to unwind, Bullies in the shadows, think they got the power, But I’m rising up strong, like a blooming flower. Words like daggers, they cut so deep, But I’m building my armor, no time for defeat. You throw your shade, but I’m shining bright, Got my crew beside me, we’re ready for the fight. **Chorus** Hate and bullies, they can’t break me, I’m rising up, can’t you see? Fast like a bullet, I’m dodging the pain, Turning the hate into fuel for my gain. **Verse 2** Look in the mirror, see the scars I wear, But I’m not defined by the weight of despair. You think you’re tough, hiding behind your screen, But I’m spitting truth, you know what I mean? Words are my weapons, I’m armed with my voice, In a world full of noise, I’m making my choice. No more silence, I’m breaking the chains, Together we’ll rise, let’s dance in the rain. **Chorus** Hate and bullies, they can’t break me, I’m rising up, can’t you see? Fast like a bullet, I’m dodging the pain, Turning the hate into fuel for my gain. **Bridge** Yo, we’re stronger together, united we stand, No room for the hate, we’re taking a stand. Lift each other up, let the love overflow, In a world full of darkness, let our kindness glow. **Verse 3** So here’s the message, loud and clear, Hate can’t win when we’re spreading cheer. Bullies gonna bully, but they can’t hold me down, I’m the king of my castle, I’m wearing my crown. Fast-paced life, but I’m taking it slow, Building up my crew, let the good vibes flow. So if you’re feeling lost, just know you’re not alone, We’ll rise from the ashes, together we’ve grown. **Chorus** Hate and bullies, they can’t break me, I’m rising up, can’t you see? Fast like a bullet, I’m dodging the pain, Turning the hate into fuel for my gain. **Outro** So let’s flip the script, make the hate disappear, With love in our hearts, we’ll conquer the fear. Fast on this journey, we’re chasing the light, Together we’ll shine, yeah, we’re ready to fight!

I’m dead, took the trash out, now I’m in the county dump, You never noticed when I was dying, just a body to lump, The delivery man passed by, blind to my fate, Now I’m buried in the waste, forgotten too late. You never noticed I was dead by your front door, It took Will and Wes to see me, but you never swore, (will and wes found me dead) (will and wes found me dead) Now I’m rotting in the dump, cold and alone, You never cared, now I’m gone, turned to stone. Your front door bush seemed the safest place, To die, and what type of inhuman race. That left me to wither, didn’t even glance, Now I’m lost in the trash, no final chance. You never noticed I was dead by your front door, It took Will and Wes to see me, but you never swore, Now I’m rotting in the dump, cold and alone, You never cared, now I’m gone, turned to stone. (my response) Bro I didn't know you were dying by my front door. I also never knew my ex wife was a cheating whore. So understand that you can have wives, but it's better if you have 9 lives Guess you got the limit bro. Love you brotha and fuck the ho.

[Verse 1] SBAC time, yo, ready, set, grind Sharpen up your pencils, it's your moment to shine Rested brain, no stress, fuel up, it's prime Notes in the mental, it’s your proving time [Chorus] We rise, we thrive, we conquer the test Eat right, sleep tight, you’ll bring your best Knowledge in the backpack, study’s been blessed Show the world your skills, stand out from the rest [Verse 2] Breakfast on deck, keep the focus intact No panic, no sweat, got the brain to react Equations, essays, reflections abstract Built for the challenge, confidence stacked [Chorus] We rise, we thrive, we conquer the test Eat right, sleep tight, you’ll bring your best Knowledge in the backpack, study’s been blessed Show the world your skills, stand out from the rest [Bridge] Clock ticking, but we don’t fade or fumble Mind steady, answers flow, no stumble It’s a jungle, but you’re a lion, loud rumble Bounce back strong if the questions try to humble [Chorus] We rise, we thrive, we conquer the test Eat right, sleep tight, you’ll bring your best Knowledge in the backpack, study’s been blessed Show the world your skills, stand out from the rest

[Verse] Cornfields crown, steel mills flexin’ their might Smokestacks puff, dark Midwest night Rust belt gold, a skyline of grime and toil Coal dust diamonds, dirt churned into royal [Verse 2] Factories hum, the blue collars chant Granny in the kitchen, grease spatters on her pant Trucks bump bass, flatlands stretching wide Tornadoes twist but can't shake Midwest pride [Chorus] Midwest anthem, corn-fed kings Heartland hustle, the struggle it sings Steel-toe dreams, boots knocking on fate Grimy hands build up the Great Lakes state [Bridge] Calves so big, they could plow the frost Hay bales stack where the silence is lost Red barns stand like sentinels proud Midwest whispers under thunderclouds [Verse 3] Riverbeds carve veins through rock and heart Gas station coffee fuels a world torn apart Soybean sunsets soak bruised skies undone Grain elevator shadows chase down the sun [Chorus] Midwest anthem, corn-fed kings Heartland hustle, the struggle it sings Steel-toe dreams, boots knocking on fate Grimy hands build up the Great Lakes state

[Verse] Grandma Deb in the whip, cruise steady grip, Jetmore dust kickin’ off her dusty trip. Kansas plains rollin’, hay bales on the side, She’s got a thermos of tea, it’s a grandma joyride. [Verse 2] Highway stretch, sky big as her heart, Ain’t no GPS, she navigates by art. Moon pies on the seat, shades guarding her stare, Jetmore to Newcastle, wind tanglin' her hair. [Chorus] Vroom goes the Camry, soul full of speed, Foot touches gas, fulfillin’ the need. Stretch from Kansas flat to Okie red clay, Grandma Deb on the road, can't nobody stay in her way. [Verse 3] Passing farmers in caps, tractors in line, Waving at Deb as she waves back, fine. Closin’ miles like stitches on a quilt she sews, Oklahoma signs flash as the journey flows. [Bridge] "Watch out slow-pokes, here come the queen, Cornfields to highways, you know what I mean!" She’s got a playlist full of golden grooves, Classic to modern—got them old folks' moves. [Chorus] Vroom goes the Camry, soul full of speed, Foot touches gas, fulfillin’ the need. Stretch from Kansas flat to Okie red clay, Grandma Deb on the road, can't nobody stay in her way.

[Verse] Pen scribble hieroglyphs, pyramids on graph sheets, Schemin' up a plot thicker than grandma's feast. Gold on my riddles, flow sharper than thistle, Enemies scatter, blown away like missile. [Chorus] Chasin' dreams through the fog, climbin' mountaintop, Chain swing heavy, tickin' loud like a rooftop clock. Eyes on the prize, no detours, no stop, Cites rise to my cadence, I make the world rock. [Verse] Streetlight philosopher, words paint vivid canvas, Splittin’ atoms with rhymes, leave your mind in madness. Digest wisdom, heavier than grandma's locket, Every line's ignition, sparks fly like sockets. [Bridge] Night draped in shadows, heartbeats blend with sirens, Concrete choir singing tales of defiance. Underdog anthem, penned with burning desire, Knew I'd take it higher; now I'm dancing in fire. [Verse] Jukebox rebel, shatter norms with syllable weaponry, Microphone cipher thicker than old century pedigrees. Villain cape on, flippin' winds in dark room, Pen crafting destiny, each bar spells doom. [Outro] Laid bricks with verse, skyscrapers I be buildin', Legendary footsteps where echoes ain't yieldin'. Streetborn poet, legacy etched in ceilings, Runnin' through time, immortal’s kinda feelin'.

[Куплет 1] Как я тут оказался? Не помню сам, Снова сижу на диване, пропитываясь дымком и жратвой пополам. Каждый вечер одно и то же – старый маршрут, Тут кухня как пытка, но выхода нет, и я снова иду. (Еда) Курица – подошва, мясо – уголь, Картошка такая, что лучше бы с голоду сдохнуть. Но выбора нет, а желудок не ждёт, Пережаренный кошмар лезет в глотку вперёд. [Припев] Мы живём в O.G. Lounge Paradise, Где пропахнешь, будто сгорел, но тут нормальный вайб. Мы живём в O.G. Lounge Paradise, Где без Ашота кальян – это просто тлен и крах. [Куплет 2] Диван у кухни – мой самый страшный враг, Сел на час, но домой понесёшь на себе этот ад. Запах горелого масла и тухлого мяса, Теперь твоя куртка – их главный экспонат. (Кальян) Если Ашота нет – ты попал, друг, Тут кальян без него – как хардкор без рук. Тлеет табак, будто он умер в агонии, Ты тянешь, но чувствуешь только разочарование. [Припев] Мы живём в O.G. Lounge Paradise, Где кальян без Ашота – это боли и крах. Мы живём в O.G. Lounge Paradise, Где нет выбора, и ты снова сидишь как дурак. [Куплет 3] Курю много, не могу это бросить, Привычка сильнее, чем желание сбросить. Вроде бы мог бы пойти куда-то, Но только тут удобный стол – вот и расплата. (Брат, это тупик…) Выбор? Нет! Меню? Ад! Зачем я тут? Но опять подряд! Говорю себе: «Ну, может, в последний раз», Но завтра снова тут – в O.G. Lounge Paradise… [Припев] (x2) Мы живём в O.G. Lounge Paradise, Где еда – это боль, а дым – твой второй рай. Мы живём в O.G. Lounge Paradise, Где столы решают всё, и ты снова тут, знай.
