Ashes (feat. V-I)

All of the memories fade away through the ashes Dedicated to this passion, yeah Better tell me where the cash is Peep the war wounds we ain't actin, yeah Fade away through the ashes, yeah Know I'm here for a reason yeah I'm feeling so blessed Too many gone in the dirt, feeling like my life is worse Release all this pain through the ashes, getting so high that I'm leaving the earth Been on this journey to open your consciousness Listen to the words, pass around the herb Were some connoisseurs preserve the art, working hard to get what we deserve Stress gonna rise to the surface, focused on stacking my riches Painting my story like it is a portrait, never back down to these politicians Police are corrupt, will shoot you in the back even though they know that you are innocent Got a puppet for a president, ready to kill stuck in this predicament You speak the truth, yeah they will limit it or silence you to a life of imprisonment They know our voices are infinite speak to the people like it is my instrument Curve all the drama like I'm on a pivot. Lyrics are intriquite remaining militant Feel the bass through every ligament working so hard til the fam is gonna live magnificent The game is a jungle so I speak my peace always watch my surroundings like deja vu Too many homies are lost to the streets so I'm ashing my joint when I'm up in the booth Its about damn time, winning cause I'm independent, never depending on people cause they'll use you in a minute Tryna benefit from energy but yeah we know the method Listen to real music and this is the message All of the memories fade away through the ashes Dedicated to this passion, yeah Better tell me where the cash is Peep the war wounds we ain't actin, yeah Fade away through the ashes, yeah Know I'm here for a reason yeah I'm feeling so blessed Be the greatest, 'nother reason for my inspiration Hoping people feeling inundated when the beat is cold versus insulated Keep the combination innovative as an artist that can really fake a fee But when another life is swiftly taken then the elevation can be hard to see Pain is redefined, every single time, I can't see the lines, justice on recline They just deem its fine, conscious they deny Ethics shift for pigment they all seem inclined To keep feeding lies, hard to be surprised Shielding interests can't protect the weakest spine Profit of a culture that they demonize Tryna take our rights, then just hit rewind Poison you can never start again, came for the wisdom my art is in Got a question where theyre heart is in when they're forsaken morals to be partisan Mindset that I had to guard against, when all those closest to me starting actin out Memories made got me rapping stout, enlighten people whenever I'm blacking out Its just a sign of the times, carry more weight with deception But it was my separation to help me to make the connection Its just a state of reflection, mirror my thoughts every section I took the pain, love, the blessings they all encompassed and gave it direction V-i, yeah All of the memories fade away through the ashes Dedicated to this passion, yeah Better tell me where the cash is Peep the war wounds we ain't actin, yeah Fade away through the ashes, yeah Know I'm here for a reason yeah I'm feeling so blessed
