Name: UP LATE
Duration: P00H02M26S
Description: I wrote "UP LATE" in a session back on Guam with two up and coming producers in Peter Michael Jude and Gabe. I captured the mood of a random Friday night where we were locked in the studio and the creative process was fluid. I wrote the first verse on Guam then ended up writing and recording the 2nd verse in an apartment in Downtown Los Angeles.

lyrics

Chorus:

I was up late, thinking bout the next move
Ion keep tabs on nobodies. What da best do?
Bedroom to the major leagues, we progressed too
Invested to turn back woo, feeling blessed!

Verse 1:

New flex, living life with some newer meaning
All the other rappers come and go and now they tweaking
Over geeking, over nothing like they got a seat,
The ops hidden up in plain sight
Snakes slither in the night, stick hitting where it hurts
I was charging em for perc
Now I’m charging for my verses
Yeah I grew up from the dirt
Straight up murking my anxiety
The pot is smoked and stirred
On the verge of another breakthrough
We done earned all em' M’s
Whip is new, not the friends
You got something bad to say?
You a fan. You a fan of the work.
I know nothing but my worth
What is life? I’m the term
Giving all the my blood, sweat, love and tears
Skrtt

Chorus

Verse 2:

Feeling blessed, crutch kinging, on the throne
I don’t gloat, If you goated real mofuggahs know
This ain’t no newwww information
It’s cuh you used to da fake shit
I swear it oozing with dated sauce
Got enough for all of ya’ll
All the salt, ya thrown at me bad for the cholesterol
I could feel the energy, envy living inside of ya’ll
I say that it love, I’m biting bullets, from all ya shots
Bulletproof tested, I Hope ya’ll learning ya lesson ya'll
Eating boy, I’m eating you a busser at my restaurant
Bussin, always bussin lotta plates stacked eat it all
Lotta people butt hurt, wishing I could heal em all
I just put work,
