Surface Lyrics

Know what's beneath, ay, let's get it

Ain't nothing could ever heal these scars

Regardless of how I feel tomorrow

Going through happiness still feels bizarre

Paranoid, knowing the steel chrome ain't too far

But it's fuel to fire, ain't gonna die tonight

Still chasing after that shine in sight

Each rhyme I write, eases the pain, the fright

Lets me know through all the bullshit, we'll be alright

Fuck your misconceptions, bringing here reflection, uh

Facing inner demons, true self detection

Take a step back, find the issues

Moments of clarity that I'm trying to infuse

But it ain't no use if I ain't got a hot beat

Dropping gems, the only way I ain't in the hot seat, ah

So the hustle evolves, proving them wrong

Showing I'm about this shit, what, I truly got the gall

Down to the wire, and I build this empire

Chase whatever I desire

Who do you admire, follow this en masse

Pushing the obstacles we all aim to surpass

If they ain't see the worth in the worthless

They don't know what's beneath the surface, uh

You can't comprehend the hurt unless, tell them

They know what's beneath the surface

You gotta know what's beneath, you gotta

Gotta, uh, know what's beneath

Ay ay, know what's beneath, ay

L a slum raised, came up from the obscene

Trauma stemmed from a junkie's offspring

Wasn't meant to touch earth, even in birth

Came from pain and he's leaving in hurt

Began the hustle from scraps and a software

Worked the craft while he's caught up in the crosshairs

Through the calamity, knew what I had in me

Through the pure self doubt, brought out the vanity

Stuck to my guns, taking it all each step

Had to build, it ain't about making green yet, nah

The golden goose in my fam and they didn't know it

A few dead ends but still I remained stoic

A thug poet with beats made of brimstone

Perfect rap diplomat like Juelz and Jim Jones

Microphone murderer, he's one of a kind, what

A few left like himself, it's all by design

Paragraphs written like deep scriptures

His penning can paint a million pictures

Pistol whip flow, can't cure this addiction

Saying you're the greatest with as much conviction, what

If they ain't see the worth in the worthless

They don't know what's beneath the surface, uh

You can't comprehend the hurt unless, tell them

They know what's beneath the surface

You gotta know what's beneath, you gotta

Gotta, uh, know what's beneath

Ay ay, know what's beneath, ay, know what's beneath
