Beast Mode 03:03
I'm feeling bout light as a feather... Finally got my shit together... I couldn't be feeling any better... Feel like I could whether any weather.. Whether the weather is hot or whether the weather is cold.. Whether you like it or not I'm in beast mode getting paid just living in the moment... This a rental I could buy it if I want it... Spending time with the kids and the parents, then after hours at a drink im staring... Looking at the nothing she's wearing...in front of the class remember no swaring.. Wouldn't be good for the faculty. Gonna show that I'm serious about helping...while melting down a slope in Japan... Get a call to seek peace with Afghanistan, all the while shooting videos in candyland... I guess I'm living these dreams again... Adrian you up in ya head again...I guess dreaming is the medicine...doctor say take another Ritalin...but I didn't tell him that I sold them... I took frustration and bottled it up... Use that as motivation and swallow it up... Took all my mistakes marinate in that steak...then I pound that beef, don't forget to add heat... Dreams be protein give me nice things...veggies consistency...eat'en consistently... Become a better me, the old one was subpar, only my strength, my mind, and the bar... Take a drink of the sweat that I'm pourin out...do you really wanna know the success amount...are you ready for your chest to be poking out... Feel like ya legs gave out arms swollen now ain't no rest let's go you gotta stroke it out... Baby you got one mo you gotta poke it out... That's the way to go to work that's what I'm talking about... One more rep is the only thing we talking now... Everbody put your hands in the air...Motherfucker it's a stick up stick up... Get ya hand up out my pocket...I see the bullshit somebody stop it... Everybody put your hands in the air... Shit I got the hiccups... They inside ya head like rodman... All up inside ya crib like the goblins... Everbody put your hands in the air...Motherfucker it's a stick up stick up... Get ya claws up out my pocket...I see the nonsense somebody stop it... Everybody put your hands in the air... Beta build ya bricks up bricks up... They inside ya head like rodman... All up inside ya crib like the hobbit ...

Big thank you to Bea Abad for all of her many contributions to VaChina I and VaChina ii. I want to say a big thank you to my mom who supports me non stop and the rest of my family back in Virginia/DC/Jersey. Thank you grandma, aunties, sisters and brothers and all my nieces and nephews. Love yall very much. Big ups to Danville, VA where I learned how to be a gentleman, musician, and loving person. Big ups to the brothers, yall know what it is! Thanks to all of the women who sacrificed for themselves and others and continue to fight for equal rights. Big thank you to everyone featured and contributing to the album Crook The Composer for mixing & mastering, Jubil K. Wong, Shani Tabia, Esteban Beltran, Curt Zimpfer, Jon Howland, Maarten Rischen, Uran K., The Mighty Orphans, Skezz, and especially to the Essence dancers (Bea, Rachel, Henrietta, Faye, Shyanne).

Got lots of love for Huizhou, Hong Kong, Danshui, Zhuhai, Guangzhou and all of the other awesome places we’ve been blessed to play.
