February 21st Lyrics

February 21st 1975

50 degrees outside was the high

When I opened up my eyes and let out my first cry

Pray to God this world let this lil black boy survive

He just wanna make some music that inspire you while you drive

At the job, push you from that 4 o'clock to 5

It's amazing how tempus fugit, time flies

I was just watching Tempest Bledsoe, and The Cos

I had a plan, but got punched in the mouth

Mike was right, a left uppercut from life

Not Jennings penning wrongs I could easily right(Write)

Sometimes wishing I could go peacefully in the night

But that would be the sucka route

Pull out the Hammer rather "Turn This Muphuka Out"

"We gotta pray just to make it today", see sometimes I talk to God

Cause the more I talk to people, the more I like my dog

Cause he just tryna show his master love

Drinkin beers I was fartin at the gastropub

Yeah, see they can laugh at my social gaffe

Knowin that them folks can't hold a note in my vocal class

Somethings wrong whicha mental

It's fundamental you lackin proper guidance that's parental

As a kid I wanted to be champ intercontinental

Y'all don't know the violence it took to become this gentle

It's dead silence when I'm lurking

Man the bugs stop buzzing man the birds stop chirping

When death is in the air I can feel it

I can wait for it to die or I can swoop down and kill it

Like watching vultures eating roadkill

I got no chill, I try like Angela Bofill

You gone learn what the real bout

They try to copy but what I do but it's outside they're wheelhouse

Outside they comfort zone give up on this rappin fam

Just go be a factory man with no back up plan

But for me and my team we ain't quittin

I'm seeing too many memes that say this muphuka spittin

That's cause you know I don't play son

Is your attitude gonna be one day? or is it day one?

That's what I do with every beat I'ma burn it

I'ma funk it all up to be damned and then return it

Throwin dollars on the dash Bubba Wallace on the gas

I was young, used to love watching the Dukes of Haz

Till I learned about that flag on that car I was mad

Like dag Bo and Luke my dudes y'all did me bad

Love naps but stay woke

Cause when you least expect they run the okey doke on my folk

It's no joke

Be smart stay sharp

Test yaself if need be

I do it too person, woman ,man, camera, TV
