Drug addiction to be liked, tagged, followed retweeted and then repeated so to not lose relevance... Ima make evident as Gilligan, Breaking Bad with colour depictions paintin’ a picture perfect scene scenario, to follow crowd is to comfort until your desperate in desperado Oh No - he ain’t the type to break the stereo But what’s the stereotype, What if I’m the stereotype? I mean I fuckin’ love my voice maybe I should marry the mic! Because it didn’t seem to work with thoughts of marrying her... (Whoa whoa whoa man pause that pause that pause that man why you always gotta do that shit JuLS? I mean I’m just sayin’ let that shit go!...Aite?) Rewind, stop, play that back, moving forward as I! Intervene and intertwined, interchanged Interfaced and interlaced, into space! To outer thoughts of outer space from out of love and out of hate from in-and-out-and-in-and-out-and-out-and-in-again! Close the window on innuendos with easy breezy’s I’m breathin’ air into these beats, CPR repeatin! No cancer sticks, I’m sick of socializing for no reason I’d rather season vocabulary throughout the seasons! That goes for anybody sufferin’ from diseases, sufferin’ from peasant - sufferin’ from leases with’yo heart set on leaving - now yo heart’s barely beating I’m as honest as my sleeve is, I’m just saying What Up... I don’t worry bout who’s next, I’m just saying What Up... I ain’t trippin’ bout my ex, I’m just saying What Up... Da Lai Lama on my quest, I’m just saying What Up... In yo presence with my gift, I’m just saying What Up... And I don’t blame gravity for this! See Ima young go-getter, Soulful spitter Flow Walls of Jericho, no forfeiter! Expose counterfeits, soulless scribblers who be talkin’ bout cash they ain’t got, go figure! Fake ass rappers, Pinocchio figures! Fibbin’ on they flows and they nose got bigger! Vancouver’s Own Unknown knows better... Vancouver’s Own Unknown knows better! x2 Yeeuh! And he’s sayin What Up! And he’s sayin What Up! ...yeuh, and he’s sayin What Up!
