Stakes Still High - SOL

Sunrise

Sun fall

Same place yet I made it so far

Same name but I changed through the art

And my own brain going through a third world war

The money that I make goes straight to my pocket

Back to the music so the artist still starving

You’re truly the reason that yours truly

Was the album that I made and not popcorn for profit

Hand high

Reach for the sky

Back spoken for living our computer jail lives

You can share what you want

All allowed

But is the life to live?

When you walk outside

I heard through the grape vine

Don’t wait on a sound before you change your mind

88 street dogs racing bad

No liar, the stakes is high

Yea the stakes is high

Yea, yo the stakes is high

Uh, yea the stakes still high

The stakes still high

Yea, the stakes still high

Said the stakes still high

The stakes still high

Yea, the stakes still high

These days cats will die for anything

Preteen rats going gas cap on anything

If you seen outside the box

You’re not industry

Everybodys out of tune

Tattooed, skinny jeans

This is not a hate song

Its a love song

This is not a rap song

Its a pop song

Straight to your drawer

Leave you on the floor

Waiting for the count

With you head phones on

Too confusing

To try to fit new music into rap

Too many influences

And illusions to the past

And you won’t even catch

Even half James Baldwin

Down to the mountain top and back

Backs packed

Off the map

Twenty stacks

You ever get off of that?

Good God

Gats get off of that

Back to bring it around the world

Had to send bob and back

International swag

Make up a dance for that

Get your hands out your pants and rap

This is different

Its time stamped

Realest shit that ever while

They lie

Cause the stakes is forever high

They forever high
