225 Rounds (feat. U-God, Cappadonna, Bronze Nazareth & RZA)

At 3:47, more than 150 rounds of ammunition were fired into your apartment
 Which was about 200 yards away
 A few moments later, another 50 to 75 rounds were fired in the street
 And you're gonna be heard
 Still a joke back home stuck in his work
 Dropped science, to dead silence
 I was like, "word"
 They don't get it yet, but I swear that it's gon' work
 Went back home for the summer
 Met up with a girl that I used to love
 But I was all messed up at the time because
 I couldn't deal with thinking about another end to us
 She brought me back to life
 Back in senior year
 Couple months of that
 And then she disappeared
 She explained to me, and it made sense to me
 That I couldn't move forward with a heart and fear
 So I got distant on some bitch shit
 Can't lie, I was truly being a dipshit like oh my
 Knew I would move to Seattle then
 Home never let me stay too long, I guess
 Just wanted to make them proud
 But you can't tell ups from downs
 It's all alright
 You can find company
 In hearts that beat all in sync
 We're all alright
 Music wasn't makin' money
 So I headed out to AI
 Arts school so I thought cool Imma be fine
 Family wanted a degree, cool Imma get mine
 Not sure if I made the move for me at the time
 I just had to get out
 I was just tired of being home
 Every ounce of my future was ridin' on a microphone
 That's a lot of pressure
 Even for a kid that's sure with no measure
 To measure if my music was truly meant to deliver
 Fell in love with the city
 Fell back in love with my art
 I was truly in the present, I learned to follow my heart
 Truly independent, and finally makin' my mark
 A Team Worldwide was steady lightin' a spark
 100K, a couple million, then 10's
 Views gone crazy, I was over the fence
 I was over the moon and then Neverland dropped
 That right there but I'm never gonna land off
 AI wasn't really what I thought it would be
 But I met a couple friends I've been happy to keep
 Left that summer back home again
 Then I started plotting out how the team would win
 We decided that it was time that we all should meet
 Overseas with the team for a couple of weeks
 Patrick, Craig, Glenn, Gustav, and me
 Set up in a cabin south of Stockholm streets
 5 musicians, 4 countries, 1 album
 Took 5 years to make this our outcome
 Used to ask how come, now they ask how
 I just believed in it way more than most thou
 I just remained me and painted what I've seen
 Painting you all the lows and highs in these dreams
 All the pleasure and pain
 The sun that came after rain
 Now we on our way
 Life will never be the same
 Just wanted to make them proud
 But you can't tell ups from downs
 It's all alright
 You can find company (22 and I'm way more)
 In hearts that beat all in sync (22 and I'm way more)
 We're all alright (22 and I'm way more wise)
 22 and I'm way more wise to the fact
 That the world makes plans that the mind can't hatch
 No heart makes dreams work and time can't match
 And I choose to be truth nothing rhymes like that
 
 Just wanted to make them proud
 But you can't tell ups from downs
 It's all alright
 You can find company
 In hearts that beat all in sync
 We're all alright
 We gon' be okay
 We gon' be alright
 We gon' be okay
 We gon' be alright
 We gon' be okay
 We gon' be alright
 We gon' be okay
 We gon' be alright
 We gon' be okay
 We gon' be alright
 We gon' be okay
 We gon' be alright
 Must have been 2:11 when the world ended
 At least it felt like it at the time
 Teenage years make a heart break worse
 Plus a lot was going on
 Couldn't stop it at the time
 Dad tried to flip the house
 Funny that it all ended upside down
 Known for being optimistic, started feeling different
 Couldn't fix it started writing lyrics all because
 Nobody tried to hear it
 'Round the same time
 Hooked to the nicotine
 Music and a smoke were synonymous to me it seemed
 Paid prices through the devices, both sides
 Obsessed with a vision, I knew I could make mine
 I knew it would take time
 I knew it would doubt shine
 Thought
