Oddisee, Toine, Trek Life - Outro Flow lyrics

Look, how the fuck did I
Get here? I ain't talking being alive
I mean working for the machine with
The dream in my eye no contact, if you wack
You don't need a reply
This nigga O told me early there's
A seat in the ride
To success 'bruh you blessed, what you need
I provide so if i wasn't shot-gunning
It was me and my pride
Got me feeling the same way
I felt my Grandmomma died
I'm getting old, time bleeding out
This ain't what I dream about
Up beating the sun
On that first bus leaving out
The city just ain't for me no more
Trust when I'm breathing out
The smoke when I be on stage, they be like
'Toine Go!' but back home
I'm still a John Doe from upper Marlboro
Nah Yo, fuck that, if I ain't got the condo
Living bomb jo, fuck your top 5 convo
I'm gone so passed like, Rajon Rondo
Gotta keep it real like Los Blancos
I rep for my mom, jo
Yo, plus who got my back too
And 'ion mean for whatever rap do
It's just a capsule i'm actual

Most of my fans think that I'm underrated
I put myself within the box amongst
The ones who made it
Amongst the greatest and the latest
At the same time
I'm killing stages with your
Favorites and evading Shine
And me I'm fine with the position that I'm in
But my listeners think I should
Be positioned in the tens
Top fives, number ones, all the awards
And all the shit that comes with it
That I tend to ignore
This is classic over fashion
Lasting over passing
Passion over niggas who just
Do shit for reactions
I may not ever be on BET at a show
But, I done seen the fucking globe
So fuck accepting some gold
Fuck your VIP parties I'd rather
Chill on the sofa
Smoke some shisha, my feet up
My lady bout to come over
No chips upon my shoulder
I'm just speaking how I feel
My nigga I'm good for real I
Got a house with a
Fridge full of meals, a lot of time to kill
And my nigga I'm good for real

To the listeners I gave y'all the best of me
And when that wasn't enough
I gave the rest of me
I thought that talent and hard
Work would be the recipe
But that cake never did bake up successfully
And trust me, I was in the kitchen constant
New styles
We rocked 'em, shows, we had 'em popping
Penning new
Concoctions, I guess I probably should have
Been a doctor or a
Lawyer could properly destroy ya', in the lab
Straight toiling while my album
Get ignored my blood
Boiling why the fuck y'all keep
Passing up me in line?
But, I'm out, I'm 'finna shine
From the side line, goodbye
I'mma let Toine serve you up
Sean Wyze hurtin 'em
Stik Figa and Hawdwerk set to murder ya'
I put in all this grind and they say
"we never heard of ya"
Damn that had me trippin'
But maybe the real mission
Was to set the stage so
The next generation can glisten
So I'm cool man I mean, I guess I'm cool man
