The Shining Lyrics

These feelings inside of me have created a higher me

Trying to claim a higher seat in this fucked up society

We built our own hierarchy but people are blind to see

The greed that money breeds making us work defiantly

Most people got anxiety there's bound to be a variety

Of those who think too much and battle with sobriety

Rich live quietly but no one gives them privacy

Hard to keep your sanity when people creep up silently

Been building building my endurance to shit I never wanna see

Shits bound to happen when I'm focussed on my currency

Staying focussed can't let anxiety get the best of me

Trying to make something out of nothing until the death of me

Didn't want to be broke so I had to figure out a strategy

I've been taking my time to write these lyrics craftily

Don't want to be minor so great is what I have to be

Like my hometown Stingers, I'm your next dynasty

Born in E-town I want to be like ecstasy in the nineties

Take a seat now you better take notes while I'm rhyming

Fuck with me now beware I got a heart of a lion

I'll be knocking on your door to get your ass out of hiding

Still ride the public transit I don't need no reminding

I had guys that called me bro turns out they were just lying

Fuck them anyways If you ask them they'll probably deny it

Mess with me I'll be haunting your ass just like the shining

Sometimes I take a hard look at my life and I question

Is it worth it to go on but I remember my blessings

All the shit I worked for all of the nights I was stressing

All the nights I stayed up when I should've been resting

So I can't give up now, I've got to move with aggression

I've got a lot I want to do I want to show more progression

Want people to remember me with a joyful expression

Live a fulfilling life, leave behind a good impression

I don't have a clue what's ahead in life I'll admit

But I'll keep walking with my head high feeling confident

Let me know what needs to be done and you know I'll commit

Show me competition and I'll prove to you I'm prominent

Many friends said they'd stay true but did the opposite

Nothing I can do but move on and stay on top of it

Focus on myself and my grind, assert my dominance

Keep my circle tight make you wish you were apart of it

Born in E-town I want to be like ecstasy in the nineties

Take a seat now you better take notes while I'm rhyming

Fuck with me now beware I got a heart of a lion

I'll be knocking on your door to get your ass out of hiding

Still ride the public transit I don't need no reminding

I had guys that called me bro turns out they were just lying

Fuck them anyways If you ask them they'll probably deny it

Mess with me I'll be haunting your ass just like the shining

Puffing on a joint while the city's on fire

I'm an anarchist that's my deepest desire

The city is struggling the people are tired

Yet we still see no change nor hope transpired

Rolling through the city of the dark and shady

Slow down 118th where most people get shaky

Knowing damn well I'll get robbed if I'm lazy

These heads on the streets damn they be crazy

Don't give a fuck I'm hotboxing the car it's hazy

Crackhead staring through the window it don't faze me

Harassed by the cops claiming they care for his safety

Just another day in YEG, drug addicts daily

I came a long way from hitting dumb licks just for fun

Now if you get stained you should wonder what the fuck you've done

Couple close homies who won't hesitate and pull a gun

Hear someone say my name better not be speaking none

Born in E-town I want to be like ecstasy in the nineties

Take a seat now you better take notes while I'm rhyming

Fuck with me now beware I got a heart of a lion

I'll be knocking on your door to get your ass out of hiding

Still ride the public transit I don't need no reminding

I had guys that called me bro turns out they were just lying

Fuck them anyways If you ask them they'll probably deny it

Mess with me I'll be haunting your ass just like the shining
