1st Movement
Woke up at a quarter to one
To discover somebody’s bike hangin’ out my trunk
Mysterious accordin’ to some
Unless your name is “Kid Fresh” and about to jump
Into a brand new afternoon, soon different city
Every weekend on stage gettin’ dizzy
Lady luck wants me to sweat’er like Cosby
Meh- I’d like to think that the bullets dodge me


Make it move and stay true, or make it move with deceit
Only had to pay two when it really cost three
Couldn’t handle the rock. Joined the swim team.
But I can handle the rock. B-L-E-N-D.
We get down more than not (often)
You only seen it in pictures (Lochness)
Game over no (stoppage)
Two more quarters and I’m back (watch it)

Man, this is somethin’ straight out of a comic
Best weekend forever (Jobless)
Same soccer team as Jesus and Muhammad
Get’er done, get’er fly, Riverside (Plaza)

Now, who’s that kid they call “Fresh” sometimes
Used to be human until he turned hype
Brought daylight without the sunshine
If ya heard wrong, then ya prolly heard right

Keystone, Carlo Rossi
She ain’t the boss so why she actin’ bossy
Big shot shootin’ looks wit’er posse
Ain’t nuthin’ but a case’a blanks from AmmuNation
Dope Fresh. Watch me.
Gave’er a slow kiss. She got weak.
Now we’re movin’ like Fossi.
Dapper fly as 8th grade graduation

You say it won’t, I say it might
You say good mornin’, I say goodnight
Wrong move- you’ll be pushin’ daisies like
Disney Yahtzee. No sir, no do-overs
Couldn’t date lady luck without lady fights
Either had to save a mic or do what the lady likes
Dropped both. Had to take a bike
And learn how to ride a mean-cold-low shoulder

2nd Movement
Only view of the top I ever had was from a distance
Finishin’ sub-bosses, second-to-last missions
Standin’ in the wind- silence.
Fightin’ stance, facin’ my father again- Ninja Gaiden.
My mother walks like we just switched shoes
Now that I’m dealin’ with the dude she had to live thru
Call it family miscues or daddy issues,
There’s somethin’ to a grown man with no plans ya can’t excuse

Certain walls ya can’t emcee thru and
Certain laws that I’ll never keep to
So while these rappers actin’ like they takin’ action, I make the cut
‘til the razor rusts and gots me feelin’ like Jinoo
Never had to lift the steel to fight the power
And I stand out in the crowd like white people at Howard
So, will ya say “love” with your final hour-
And if I’m the first to go, you know it’s without a doubt

Keep you eyes on, eyes on
The fight that fights on
Can’t go chasin’ after before
Eyes on, eyes on
Hands behind curtains
This is more than strings can pull,
or lift, breathe in, and in
The fight that fights on
Keep your eyes on eyes on

Killin more mileage than a city full’a Hondas
On the road less traveled, I walk on
Can’t take the world without a few issues- ask Onslaught
‘Cos right now’s lookin’ like an HBO montage
Wanted to give the full story, keep the theme true
In a game where everybody’s gettin’ by with just a preview
The highlights dim the lies to seem true
When you can sip the world cup with your hands- no review

I’m on demand, but can’t put me on pause
I’m the result’a when you treat your son like a longshot
Only brown kid swimmin’ state meets poolside
Turned a longshot to a loose cannon thru the bull’s eye
Went Metallica on memory bank, had to kill’em all
And hang it up because I don’t need a cell to call.

3rd Movement
Now if ya can’t rock wit’ it, ya can’t rock wit’ it
But stay confident, ya can’t not get it
It takes a hot minute to change the lost interest
Ladies off limits and games ya stopped winnin’
Hey, I’m not finished if it ain’t off the hinges
They came to plot thicken, we came to drop kick it
Brains got the spinnin’, faces got lifted
Fame’s got an image, you’re playin’ with hot spinach

And I can’t stop grinnin’ amazed and awe-stricken
At the days gone thin and the nights we spend spendin’
Playin’ Scott Pippen- wing men on assistance
Ain’ a job listed we can’t rock the distance
Game on the system like game on women
Rapper’s strung out, might as well gone fishin’
I give’em butterflies- yeah, I been gone swimmin’
To the point of no return, happily lost in it

Now who’s that kid they call “Fresh” sometimes
Rolls through the hood with your girl on your bike
Kicks Spurs like Steve Nash with one eye
Breaks like semis hit the turnpike

Was here before you homie- moccasins
Smoother than smoother than smooth- collagen

Yeah that’s that kid they call “Fresh” one time
Used to be human until he turned hype

Been payin’ dues and I ain’t got tickets
No Linden, no keys, and I’m still lockin’ it
Brought daylight without the sunshine
If ya heard wrong, then ya prolly heard right

Grazie, grazie for the look and the listen
We should do this again sometime and make good
Yeah, I put Toussaint on the track ‘cos he needed attention
Kid Fresh signin’ off- see you on Facebook
