The Usual

Sigh
Yeah
And I’m just happy that y’all feel my tunes
Cause rapping seems to be the only thing that heals my wounds
I’ve seen flowers watered everyday and still not bloom
I hope one day I can say this in a filled-out room
No, I do not want a deal and no I do not want to build
Don’t work with overpaid rappers that are under skilled
The whole game no doubt need someone real
But we all so doped out we don’t know what to feel
Fucked up daily, it’s fuck you pay me
Everybody care about themselves, we so selfish
The same girl that save me the same girl that play me
But I’m forever grateful for your help when I was helpless
Yo, my memories are all that I have
Since I turned 23, I been all in my bag
And I don’t know too many that can stomach this or follow my path
Got everything I ever wanted except a call from my dad
But I ain’t tripping on it
Sometimes it’s hard to be honest and open
A promise don’t mean shit when a promise is broken
And you ain’t gotta like my songs my nigga I wrote ‘em
Yo, all I do is bump my shit when I’m here by my lonesome
And I ain’t looking for approval
Just put it out and hope it’s useful
For someone dealing with the usual bullshit in life
You gon' be alright
This that real independent, not fake independent
This ain’t signed to a label, but claim independent
I ain’t never had a manager, I never had an agent
Just my raps and the camera and built this foundation
From the ground up, brick layering, never called a sick day in
Can still hear my old chick saying «nigga you won’t ever be shit and you ain’t
shit now»
But now she hit me weekly trynna let me bang shit down
Now I’m on to new things, I ain’t really into old flings
Girl you knew the old Calen, now I got the nose ring
Told you I was dope baby
Look at all these dope fiends
I been on my king shit in case you didn’t know queen
Yeah, sometimes you miss the boat
Some people get the gift of gab I got the gift of quotes
Yeah, and I’m hoping that you listen close
Cause if I’m honest I don’t know how much longer I’ll go
Some people get the gift of gab I got the gift of quotes
Yeah, and I’m hoping that, I’m hoping that, close
Cause if I’m honest I don’t know how much longer I’ll go, go
Know how much longer I’ll g-
