They locked my father in the state pen They took a great man Remember when they had me sitting waiting, in interrogation Had to stay patient, and no I did not say shit But if you understood what I knew, you prolly wouldn't make it I ain't get no vacation, they keep asking "what's taking Me so long, to drop a got damn song" Once the beat come on Errbody this a singalong Geek with a freak of the week, get ya mingle on I get my single on at the thottin' marathon In the land of Babylon I'm like Louis Farrakhan Without the Islam, people asking "is I'm?" Another nigga that's just saying shit Well that's ok and shit, I came to get drapes draped on my favorite whips Laced with the latest shit, face the shit I'm the greatest (Emcee) I been in the mix ever since Future dropped them hits And when I play The Blueprint I start with number 6 I came into this motherfucker couple grand strong, had to bring it back with a unique sneak attack These them beef raps, you need to get ya seat back My first name is "Heaintshit", shit "I'll Bee Dat" Arnold Schwarzenegger nigga "I'll be back" In that all black when I pull up, hopping out the Jag

Niggaz still doing the same bluffin aint change nuffin I'm talking funny acting Dave Ruffin From cane pumping up in the game Hustling ain't the same no more This act to bring it back to Bo Jack I had to change sports Yeah I had to change course Coke is a hell of a drug I seen man snort A whole eight ball Could see it on his face Take a break dog Running my scheme with Bernie Madoff Never had a layoff No days off I been up like thirty adderall Switch the play call I used to use inositol Walked outside seen fiend noddin off I feel like a boss They still cant stop me on the field like lacrosse I'm cool like hockey Cause I still wear Lacoste Just another black man in his tennis shoes (Aye what you focused on son) I'm focused on business moves Give me the cash and Ima really do it Next day air packages Benny Boom Money open doors up So if you ain't rich You go through poor stuff Live in the sticks Or get ya skull busted Time is of the essence Youngins gather round for some Lessons from these veterans Seems like the whole town's Prone to forgetting You can cast away on your own Island like Gilligan I'm feeling like Milligan Make sure you cop the cd Pay ten Can't be cheap Gotta pay attention Keep the pen on me writing my life I leave it open ended (Yeah) I ain't been no beginner Since a nigga started When a nigga worked the hardest Can't look back No such thing as perfect progress

I check my call my log all calls in for the shit When niggaz sitting in the midst of the fish they start to act fishy When we finally met white, beautiful glisten The type, when you take a hit, taste freezing ya face I cant escape fate JJ "what can I say", aye Shower shit and shave shift all in a day Im working non stop Juan clock work but he smart Akh Ever since the start when son gave 'Em the drop I ain't been home in three days these plays keeping me in the game Serving kin folk, I should be ashamed Cane, help me get a couple dollars Keep up with my shit, I ain't have time to sit college And I been trying to keep modest But really Ion fuck around I grew up round some gangsters, killers, robbers, guns, pounds These them drug sounds I'm tryna buy a new estate If you aint tapping in on different continents you late I'm confident I'm great I aint never need no recognition Even though I'm looking at the game I'm what it's missing I'm starting to see a distance Between me and the competition Feeling like that money coming Why, Palms itching I'm gone fishing Out the park, Cal Ripken

Overdosed on confidence And copious on common sense I cherish all my memories I got some ones I can't forget I got some hoes aint let me hit Look at they face, they face see me now Back then wasn't fuckin with me But today I know they proud Took my life and wrote it down Then rapped it over vinyl records For the ones who get it I said it It's effortless Shit been gettin treacherous keep on asking what's happening Check it off of my bucket list Making money from apps Shit been funny a lot These niggaz really be cap All I'm waiting to see like Can this really be that Can I get no respect Tell me if you object like Looking from your perspective tell me what happens next Should I call up my ex Life is anyone's guess I really should've enlisted, but I was way too gifted Hit 'Em with the step back kid You really missing it Got the game twisted Thanks Don't mention it Wish I could've rolled up a jay With Jimi Hendrix Can't take for granted The exchanging Of the sentences Can't live stuck in the past Thats like for instance If I cant leave from where I was that leads to dissonance Keep it going pimping Just remember this Don't be too limited

She really a star Could really see that shit from afar We stuck in this bubble I love you but I see you tomorrow Before I even put the keys in my car She squeezing my arm Look, we been through this twice And the third is the charm I know the storm come After the calm Cause sometimes it doesn't feel right Real life after the song This is real nice pass it along I felt like we could still rock Shit I guess I was wrong What happened next was a guess to us all I met her The connect plus the sex I got way too involved Time passed and I still stayed involved More time passed now And I gotta say I feel I evolved It's man time shit I'm showing resolve The shit I use to trip about Ion trip about I'm brushing it off Now what that make me I ain't been tripping lately Red lenses Got my vision Focused on my mission I copped the best product to separate from competition Turns out that good money thats from the streets What I was missing I ain't listen My father always told me "pay attention" When I caught that gun charge I got my name up in the system I had ducked a drug charge so many times and dodged prison To be honest a young nigga had felt like I was invincible They told me "Any bodies on this gun I'm individual, who done it" But I'll never rat my nigga fuck 'Em Look em in they eyes Don't tell em shit or give 'Em nothing If you do Then you ain't no street nigga you just bluffin' Playing for keeps The strong guys prey on the weak Talking is cheap The cards down Read 'em and weep Nigga

All My Shit 03:12
Get love in the street Stood outside sold drugs in the street Saw a nigga laid there dead in the street Get locked up can't tell on the streets Get up take a ride down the road in a whip All a nigga know is O's and zips Hoes and tricks And clothes And dro That's all my shit Pray to The Most High mind gotta get right I ain't gon get nowhere if I sit tight Gotta get my shit right Even if I just try Long as you with us we alright And as long as I'm here cuz' we gon' fight Whoever right there we a jump Mike Tyson Left and a right We gon slide Cuzzo just got burnt on the dice and When it get dark I turn into light Burn my sight To use my ears And think ideas And face my fears Made a name outside I done earned my stripes When times got hard soft was white A star was born like Barbara Streisand My next trip might be to Thailand Foreign women be so nice Around the globe I done seen all types Laid all pipe Paid no price Back on the road got me up all night Never flush the commode when I shit on flights I been nice Since way back When ya aunty and uncle was hooked on crack And pcp And dvd's of My Wife and Kids on ABC Free and AJ was on BET We was still livin' off ebt And petrol fees And metro fiends How could I ever forget those things Nah I don't ever regret them days Nah I could never reset them plays Or say them says Or make them stay Or text them "hey" So I just pray Shit I don't really know what I be doing when I be singing I just be, singing youknowimsayin' Yeah my name is Julio, I'm still around the way Pull at the studio came from juggin' plays That snow white be beautiful Bout to roll this doobie though smoking on this cookie dough Damn I never change Yeah my name is Julio, I'm still around the way Pull at the studio came from juggin' plays That snow white be beautiful Bout to roll this doobie though smoking on this cookie dough Damn I never change

Turn this up I hear a smooth song I fuck with this beat All eyes watch the throne while I'm taking my seat I'm like a barbarian a Targaryen, ain't cute when I shoot but I hit like Sean Marion It's Super Slim, sun roof in the coupe again Recognize the voice that's all you need to know it's him And these hairs on my chin Slim thick she like my grin Tell me where she stay I'm staying Juan for the win Til' I wonder again and I end up by myself They saying "Juan need some friends" nah Juan need them ends Plus Juan got his folks that rolled smoke when I was broke Thought that I was down and out, kept me from losing hope We gon put it to a vote, everybody wanna dope deal Dealing in the game, skiing on a slippery slope I be tryna kick it, shit be wicked, man the streets vicious I keep my .40 with me but it can't stop me from getting hit And that ain't stop me from buying zips of white shit, white fish Fuck the repercussions young and thuggin' tryn' get it

A classic feel from the first listen, Julio has truly captured the essence of what it means to Rap with this project.
