Code Words - E-dubble, Jhameel

I saw my Work- I saw my shame--

I saw what worked- I saw what paid-

I took my L’s- they took my name

I did my best to relieve my pain

So I woke the fuck up, shut the stupid shit out

And starting talking in some code words

And I been on it for a minute, but I’m feeling like I’m living

And this time it’s on my own terms

The city streets, you know them well

You’ve falling down, you’ve taken spills

You’ve gotten up, you’ve taken back

Done pretty well and you ain’t need no makeup bag

— so what’s the deal, with all the noise

Who’s really getting money who’s the real LeSean McCoy

So run it back, you got some blockers and some options

If you see a different read than by all means don’t let me stop you

So that 808 pumpin', that 808 bumpin'

I’m sippin' something hard and it burns just like I wanted

— good crowd and the boppers keep stuntin'

And even though I’m broke I still keep it one hundred

(Jhameel)

I took my own words and made it into something

Some of them ain’t right so the words start running

And I, I made mistakes, but the pain it causes nothing

Pain is just the fire for ambition

So all that’s stopping me is (sigh) Shut the stupid shit

I don’t really need to hear mouths running spit

Code words set me free

I just need to roar like a motherfucking beast

So we put the work in just to get the work out

And boppers work out if they tryna drop trough

No joking, serious talk.

Sorry for confessions

But them seven dollar beers were merely not enough concessions

I am Mister-Mister Brightside, keep the hope alive

We can do whatever we want;

that’s do or die

Our time, our story, fixate

On whatever we can do to stop the motherfuckin' hate

(Jhameel)

I took my own words and made it into something

Some of them ain’t right so the words start running

And I, I made mistakes, but the pain it causes nothing

Pain is just the fire for ambition

So all that’s stopping me is (sigh) Shut the stupid shit

I don’t really need to hear mouths running spit

Code words set me free

I just need to roar like a motherfucking beast

We trying to right the ship, I’mma write the soundtrack

Fixin' broken bobbleheads till they get the bounce back

No question, how we gonna get it

Cuz' the labor is intensive and baby we 'bout delivered

And the building’s in the building

We tryna make a billion

Hug the world, fix the planet, learn a language, make some children

Make 'em smart, make 'em loving, and resilient

And if they got my genes then they prolly, prolly brilliant

So we keep the wagons circled, the children on a curfew

I don’t think so, let 'em breath

After nature we can nuture

My cup’s tipped 'cuz the pain is universal

Waitin' on the doctor 'cuz the patience is a virtue

(Jhameel)
