about

This song is what the heaviness of 2020 felt like and sounded like to me. The song’s two samples come from two unreleased demo sessions I did with different sets of family members. During COVID-19, in order to balance the extremeness of highs and lows, morning routine has been lifesaving. I freestyled this using Soundtrap on my I Phone 8 with a pair of headphones during a morning walk to clear my head. This is more of an internal conversation than a song.

lyrics

Intro
(Sample plays)
Say one time for the one time
But I'm back in this b****
Two time for the two time
Gotta act in this b*****

Hook
(Sample plays in the background)
Yo probably I be
In the city where they let that go
Take it easy
Probably I be
In the city where they let that go
Yo probably I be
In the city where they let that go
Take it easy
Probably I be
In the city where they let that go

Verse I:
I know it's hot out there
And you been sweating thru alot out there
It's alot of lies out there
The streets watching and the hills too
They all got eyes out there ( adlib yeah yeah yeah yeah)
The shit crazy right now
It's no time for the lazy right now
F*** you
You gotta pay me right now
Yeah you gotta play me right now
But you could never play me right now
They gonna try to make you love the ones that (uh)
I mean hold up (my man baking right now)
They going tryna make you love
All the ones that said they really hate me right now
It's either yes or no
You ain't got no time for no maybes right now
Jesus took the wheel but I took it back
I had to learn how to save me right now
On God, on guard
Why?
Cause He made me right now
That why He made me right now
Easy

Hook:
Probably I be
In the city where they let that go

Verse II:
Shit real right here
I'ma have to tell you f*** how you feel right here
I done felt joy and pain and thrill right here
But it's still the thrill right here
In the city where they want us really all to get killed right here
But learn how to build right here
And truth of the matter is n**** look I'm still right here
Had to stay still right here
Stay slow

Hook:
Keep it easy tho
Probably I be
In the city where they let that go
Take it easy
Probably I be
In the city where they let that go

Talking:
Probably get a female vocalist on this s*** to sing some s***
Like

Singing:
Take it easy
Probably I be
In the city where they let that go
